THE BATTLE ON.

ITghUau

THE WESTERN VIEW.

Senator Warren I oii.n.enl . I OM th s , ... in enl of s,-iilor I liaioll. r on larilT Uulic. W ash I u l o. April Com BM ii t i tig on S-nator Chandler's statement of Wednesday in regard to the possible

failure of the tarilV bill because of too

high ratea, Henntoc Warren, of Wyoming, said: 1 do not consider it entirely fair, and certainly not judicious, to impute at this time to western senators a Iis position to to extreme in their tariff views, or to insinuate that the tariff bill will fail because of radical demands for western interests. Such a presumption would certainly be premature and would tend to demoralise rather than to iatlmldalCi as perhaps intended. The tariff bill will fail, as it ought to fail, if it ll sectional and partial ami does not equitably recognize agricultural, mining and lumber iiit-'-ests. as well as others. Lastern interests arc always well represented at the capital by compet- nt experts in all eastern economic lines; they arc in continual attendance on the committees, so that eastern senators and congressmen do not have much left to contend for be fore the committees having charge of tariff bills, and the duties being arranged satisfactorily for them in committee, they need make but little effort on the floor while tariff bills arc

under consideration. On tin- other hand, the agricultural and western intercsts are not thus represented; but feeling that they are entitled to coiisiderntion. they appeal to their rc- , rasen tatives in congress. and thus western senators have greater reaponslbili ties and BOTC to b than eastern BSUU ton in contending for a just scale of import duties. Hut their activity inu.t not be taken as hostility.
