he - met an unfortunate cheek through
| the ,'act that Mr. Hearst, who sup
ported President Wilson for election,
has already ‘bolted’ from the new tar
iff proposals.
"Mr. Hearst Is Right."
The particular significance of his
| attitude lies in the adoption of such a
j line of criticism by one w ho is recog
nized as a professional Judge of pop
ular feeling in such matters. Mr.
! |<•; rrt is *ividently convinced that
nothing will more certainly cause a
revulsion «>f feeling on the part of the
American people than to spread the
alarm that free trade is at their gates.
We have little doubt that in taking
this view he is entirely right."

Hearst’.-* tariff statement. The Even

"Although Mr. Hearst supported Dr.
Wilson in the presidential campaign,
he is now attacking him in his news

that most of the advanced and intel

favor of a policy of protection, but he
does not explain that the British peo-
P c as a whole have defeated the pro

the Underwood bill would work out
about 25 t»er cent reduction in tariff.

fair to say that President Wilson is at

Representative Underwood .-aid that

length of the tariff discussion in the
House was from four to five weeks.
Underwood said ids committee had
not received any of the so-called pro

Democrats who are of the belief that

Malcontents Look to Senate.
Many disgruntled Democrats now
look to the Senate as their only hope
for increases in rates. No coalition
of high-tariff Democrats with Repub
licans is looked for. the Republicans
opposing such a plan and the huge
hize of the Democratic majority being
an additional deterrent.
Representatives from the mill dis
tricts prepared amendments looking
to higher compensating duties on the
higher grades of manufactured cot
ton. It was not believed, though, that
any of these would be acted upon fa
vorably.
A counter agitation in the shape of
a movement to put muslin underwear

Little hope that any of these free

entertained.
SAVANNAH. GA.. April 16.—The
sixty-fourth annual session of the
Medical Association of Georgia con
vened in this city this morning with
Dr. W. W. Pitcher, of Warrenton,
president, presiding. The delegates
were welcomed for the city by Mayor
Ric hard J. Davant and on the part of
the Georgia Medical Association by
Dr. Ralston Lattimore, chairman of
the committee on entertainment. Re
sponse was made by Dr. E. E. Mur
phy, Augusta.
The feature of the session was a
discussion of medical and pharma
ceutical practices and the problems
involved in Georgia, which was pre
cipitated by a paper by Dr. Robert C.
Wilson, professor of pharmacy of
the University of Georgia. The key
note of that paper was a
tion of patent medicines.
CHICAGO, April 15. Agitation
against the sentence imposed upon
fourteen-year-old Ollie Taylor, of At
lanta. who confessed stealing a 5-cent
bottle, continues to spread. C. W.
Croty, a lumber manufacturer of
Tomah. Wis.. read the story «>f the
youngster, and immediately wrote
Senator LaFollette and Congressman
J. J Esi’h. of his district, asking wlict
could be done to have the child’s pun
ishment ended. The Senator replied
it was a question for the Georgia au
thorities. Mr. Esch said lu* would
confer with some of the Democratic
Congressmen.
"I believe there must be some mis
take." the Congressman added. “At
least I hope so, because the penalty
is out of all proportion to the of
fense.”
Hears from Lawyer.
The Wisconsin lumberman also
heard from W. H. Terrell, who was
attorney for the Taylor boy. Mr.
Terrell said that unless the hoy
should he paroled or the Governor
pardoned him. the only hope lie has
is in appeal to the Supreme Court of
the United States, “and he is too
poor to pay the necessary expenses
of such a proceeding” This is ex
actly what Mr. Croty is considering.
Ho says he is not through with the
case.
“F called the attention of Mr. La
Follette and Mr. Esch to the different
decisions in the oleomargarine trust
case and to this Taylor boy's cas.* as
to the penalty being unreasonable,
he remarks, referring to the Treasury
Department's attempted compromise
of the oleomargarine cases which
were slated for criminal prosecution
by the Chicago Government authori
ties.

Germany Wants Trade
Pact Under New Tariff.
BERLIN. April 16 An invitation
to the United States to join German,
in a trade agreement in 1916. when
ihe German agreements expire, was
extended by George Gothein, tiie Un
derwood of the Reichstag, in speaking
to a correspondent to-day.
"The influence of the American tar
iff reduction on Germany will he

sist the general movement for tariff
