3 THE FARMER: APRIL 19, 1913 L0I1ERGAN TAKES UP FREE TOBACCO IN TARIFF MEASURE Underwood's Plan Would Admit FfoHippine Grown Product His Views on the Sub ject Local Manufacturers Oppose Ex emption in Appropriation Bill Relative to Union Washington, April 19. The Pens splvania tobacco growers liave discov ered a clause on the Underwood tariff that admits Filipino tobacco to this country free of duty and they are taking up cudgels to wage war upon that part of the bill. They will en deavor to secure support from the Connecticut valley growers In Connec. tlcut and Massachusetts. The Lancas ter, Pennsylvania Leaf Tobacco Board at a special meeting held on April 12. adopted resolutions . declaring against the section relative to the tobacco. But the members of the Ways & Means committee have a ready ; an wer for those who fear the free to bacco from the Philippines. They say that it Is a reciprocal tariff and that the tobacco will not be admitted here free unless all American maiw faeturea and products are admitted Into the Philippine Islands free of duty. Mr. Lonerran of Hartford took the matter up with Leader Underwood yesterday afternoon, and Mr. Unde: wood replied that the Ways and Means committee was of the opinion that not enough of the Philippine tobaooo would come in to affect the Ameri can market for the home grown leaf. Mr. Lonergan stated that he believed that he should have to oppose the paragraph as a safeguard to the Con necticut growers. Hat Schedule Stands. The Sundries schedule was passed over today containing the fur hat schedule and Mr. Donovan who is looking after this Industry let it be known that he would have some amendments to offer before the cau cus closes. It is believed that he will be successful in having the duty re duced upon the rabbit or coney skins that are used In the fur hat industry. An amendment offered yesterday by Congressman Kennedy to- increase the duty on knit fabrics from 36 to 4 6 per cent, was defeated. 'On motion of Mr. Kennedy crude, scrap and re fuse rubber was kept on the free list. Mahan And the Wool Id at. Mr. Mahan is in receipt of letters from the wool mill owners of his dis trict protesting . against the lowering of the duty on manufactured woolens. He states that he will take the mat ter up with the senators from his state as he does not believe that he can do very much in the house with a proposition to change the bill. Mr. Mahan left for Hartford last night on a brief trip. Hale At the Capitol. Henry Hale, of Glastonbury, the "Peach King," so-called, was a visitor to the Capitol today. RelHy's Little Joke.' Representative Robert Y. Thomas of Kentucky created a furore in the Democratic cloak room yesterday when "Tom" Rellly of Connecticut asked him what he thought of Judge W. A. Cullop of Indiana as an orator. "Cunnel'' Thomas thought the ques tion over for sometime and replied: "Well I tell you Mr. Reilly, as an ora tor: the Judge has no inferior." Mitchell's Victory. That John J. Mitchell of Marlboro, Mass., was victorious In the special election last Tuesday was good news to the Democratic members of the house. Mr. Mitchell comes from the Fourth Massachusetts and that he won his fight in a manufacturing cen ter after the Democratic tariff policy had been given to the public is taken by many as a vindication of the Un derwood bill in New England. It is true that Mitchell had two tickets against him, but on the other hand he made his campaign upon the tariff question only and defended the bill nognr before the Democratic caucus in his campaign speeches. He had 4,200 plurality. Mitchell is 39 years of age and for merly served the unexpired term of C. J. Tin-ell. deceased, in the 61st congress. He lost the election to the 62nd congress by 130 votes, being de feated by John W. Weeks. Weeks was sent to the senate and Mitchell has the distinction of twice being elected a congressman by special elec tions. Thread Makers' Delegate. Henry Hall of Willimantic, Conn., is heading a delegation of thread mak ers from his home town looking after their business interests in connection with the tariff caucus. Connecticut's Reception. Representative Lonergan made a rtatement today to the effect that there seemed to be a misunder standing in Connecticut as to the treatment the representatives from that State were receiving. He said that the Connecticut men were being well treated by their Democratic col leagues from the South, and that the largest vote for an amendment had been given In support to a motion by a Connecticut member. Oppose Union Exemption. The Connecticut delegation yester day received a message signed by the Manufacturers' Association of Bridge port, which read as follows: "On behalf of ninety manufactur ing industries represented by this As sociation we desire to register our protest against the Item in the Sundry Civil Appropriation bill, exempting from prosecution Labor Unions and Farmers' Associations under the Anti trust laws. We are of opinion this matter should be left to the Attorney naarrai without provision being made by statute directly exempting any particular class of people. "We respectfully ask that you op pose this amendment." THE PRETTTEST FACR and the most beautiful hands are ot ten disfigured by an unsightly wart.

They will bleach your wart without in any way injuring your hands. An absolutely harmless way of re moving a wart is to tie a silk thread or a hair around its base, drawing the thread tightly, and fastening the ends so securely that it cannot possibly tDp up and off.

Another method of making these an noying 'blemishes disappear is . to wet them with hot water and then rub BLACK ROCK MIEN'S LEAGUE LADIES' NIGHT.

YOUNG SVISS MUST ENLIST IN GERMAN ARMY OR GET OUT ALSACE - LORRAINE RESIDENTS NO LONGER EXEMPT FROM STRICT RULES OF MILI TARY SERVICE. Geneva, Switzerland, April 19. The Geiman military administration has notified 8.CO0 young Swiss living in Alsace-Lorraine that they must either serve in the German army or leave the country. Dating from the time the provinces of Alsace and M-aine became Ger man, Switzerland and Germany have had an agreement whereby the Swiss residing in Alsace-Lorraine were ex empt from service in either the Ger man or the Swiss army.

Speaking of the proposed Country -iut tor fetraciord someone spoke to tne. reporter asi follows about the lure of the game of golf: "The idea that many have of the game of golf is that of a certain man - who replied to the question of 'What Is golf?' as follows: Two men go out in the field with a little Ivhlte pill. Each hits hia and the one who finds his wins' the game." But golf la far more than that. It is a game for the open air, under the clear sky, and in beautiful fields. it may be as violent or moderate as one wishes. It trains the eye and: hand to accuracy. It gives room for the utmost skill that can be acquired. No two strokes are alike. The holes are so laid out as to trap the careless in tall grass or bunkers and1 reward the careful. It is a beautiful thing to see a cleanly hit hall as It sails away for forty rods; as is often the case. The shorter strokes, as one approaches the green furnish tests of accuracy. And some of the strokes on- the putting greens are as delicate as the touch of a feather. It need not be an expen sive game if one is willing' to forego the' luxurious club house and other useless expenses. One of the promoters of the Coun try Cl-ub said that provision will be made to give one or two free lessons in golf to each charter member Joining the club. So those who have never played golf need not hesitate on that account. CHRIST CHURCH At Christ church tomorrow . there will be morning prayer at lOO o'clock and evening prayer at 7:30 o'clock.
