U --Representa-tlve John Sharp WilHami, of Missis sippi, tha . minority leader la foe House, to-day addressed a letter', to Governor Curtis Guild, Jr., of Maesa- Vih" -tta, ackonwledgtng the receipt of ont and Congress, in regard to tne tariff revision, , together with Gov t ernor Gulld'a., letter -of transmittal Representative Williams declares that " the doctrine of a maximum and a minimum tariff is not a 'new one to ' him, but declared that , does not favor the proposal of 8enator Lodge, Speaker Cannon and Representatives Dalsell tnd McCreary, to' make the present tariff, the minimum schedules wita maxtmunrme:to :serveTths purpose of retaliation only. The : mi nority leader $ suggests -to Governor i Guild that the people "might as well look to a bald-headed barber for an effective hair' restorer as to . look Ho the Republican party for a revision of the tariff." Representative Williams' letter . fol lows: sr'r,r3J:v':A , ' "I have received v your note of February IS and the printed copy of , your letter V to the - president ;na ot the petition addressed to tha. Presi dent and to 'the v congress or tne United SUtes.-v:?;:T: . ; ; , . "Tha doctrine of a maximum' and minimum tariff Is not a new one to me. I believe " I wat ; the first man : to suggest it upon tne floor of the " House of Representatives. As to the doctrine which Is sought to be man aged by Mr. McCreary, Senator Lodge and. others, it is, I take it, a new one ' to everybody, if Senator Lodge takes - the' same vlewof it that Representa tives McCreary and Cannon and Dal sell do, and I have understood that ' he does, namely, -that the minimum tariff should be the present law and that a maximum tariff should , be . something larger by an agreed per centage. My own idea Is to make tne present law the maximum tarifCJ and, to make a revised tariff the mini mum, giving by law .. the minimum tariff to all such countries as do now, or shall hereafter, admit to their markets free of duty the products of our farms, forests and mines, and al so to.sucn countries as ao now, or : shall hereafter admit all of our goods to their, markets at their minimum tariff rate. , 'In other words, I am In favor of a maximum and minimum tariff as a means towards reciprocal relations. and not in favor of two maximum tariffs, the higher of the two to serve for fn purpose of retaliation only, The trouble with this second scheme is that it leaves out of consideration entirely the gigantic interest of the American people in their commercial relations with such countries as Great Britain, for example, which grant us every Consideration, and which are our largest customers. Tou will ex cuse me in saying before I conclude inis getter inav in my 1 opinion, you might, just as well look to. a bald headed barber for an effective hair restorer as to look to the Republi can party for any revision of the tariff in the direction of freer trade rela tions with the world." f !

STRONGEST DISSATISFACTION. Interested Partiea In Japan Not Pleas ed With Official Text of President's Amendment of Exclusion Bilt Toklo. Feb. 19.- The official text of President Roosevelt's amendment of the exclusion bill has been 'pub lished As expected it has crested the strongest dissatisfaction among inter ested parties, although the movements of procedure have not yet assumed a definite shape. . v The Japanese residents of the Ha wallan Islands, have telegraphed President Rooseevelt and the Ha wallan representative In tne House In dicating the seriousness of the Injury which will be caused to their rights and Interests by this legislation The leaders of opinion here are agree, however, that under the circumstances the only alternative is to calmly re sign themselves to the situation, hop- tag that tne government can arrange with the American authorities to re dure the sacrifice in the Interest of Japanese emigrants to minimum. They regret the ne wlaw. lest the San Francisco people, glorying In their success, should, assume an over bearing attitude. News of this kind, however, would only tend to Injure Japanese suscep- tlhlltles, which President Roosevelt has been specially careful to avoid. GERMANY NEW REICHSTAG.

Senator Bailey said he had no Intention at first of purchas ing the ranch, but that Mr. Glbbs iold him about the land and said he want ed - to sell a quarter each to Governor Bob Taylor, of ; Tennessee; Senator Charles A.

He also explained, how he had paid the St Louis debt by the sale of cattle. Senator Bailey ex plained that after It had . become charged that he had received the Pecos county lands as a fee from the Waters-Pierce Oil Company, he had determined to relieve Governor Fran cis of possible further embarrassment, so he persuaded Mr. Glbbs to deed these lands back to Francis. He said Francis neither made nor lost by the deal. Senator Bailey said that he cleared about $30,000 and would have made more could he have held the land, but not having the money and the political difficulties arising, he pre ferred to sell. Senator Bailey said that Governor Francis never discussed any legisla tion with him or , sought his aid "for any measure except the World's Fair appropriation which he (Bailey) op posed In Congress. He said Francis hadnever mentioned H. C. Pierce to him except through a letter of Intro duction. TO AWAIT SHERIFF'S .ARRIVAL. Hearing on Requisition For H. C.

There were cries of "don't do that: -let it ge," Mr. Macon, however, Insisted upon a rul ing on his point of order. Mr. Flts gerald vehemently exclaimed that If the gentleman from Arkansas believed It his mission to make a point of or der against the increase of pay for clerks he would see to It that a point was made against the Increase In the pay for rural carriers for which the bill provides. Ha would have the country know that the failure-to In crease the pay of rural free delivery carriers was traceable directly to the obstinacy of Mr. Macon. Mr. Macon was on his feet In an Instant Shaking his finger at Mr. Fltxgerald. he said: "Tou cannot make . any threats tnct mil. You cannot use a whlD that you .will defeat the Incrcsse for rural carriers If I insist upon my point of order and strike out the in crease In clerki In the big postofflcos." - Mr. Fltsgerald with much delibera tion said that it was only by unani mous consent that; tha House could pass on these Increases.

"Anything been doing to-duyT" The nSght watchman, who I Just come In, was addressing tho elevator boy. , "Nobody but a night watchman would ever auk a question 1 i that," answered the boy. "Why don't you oil the wheels In your think machine and think a little?" continued the boy. "This shop. Including the Dllworth shop and foundry, has close on to two hundred of the best mechanics In the Piedmont. Thereare pattern makers, moulders, blacksmiths, machinists, to say nothing of elevator boys, apprentices and night watchmen. These have all been putting In full time to-day ; that Is, all except the night watchmen. The wheels have been turning! all day and yet you walk In here and ask if anythlng's been doing to- , day. , Why, man alive! are you asleep and dreaming before you get on . "Shut up right now," said the' watchman, angrily, , Ml' want you ;boy to stop talking of my, sleeping on t!a!.n-ft-'-..-::-r ..-.,.." , "There you , are again." said the boy. "I never said you slept on v duty. In fact, I never suspected that you slept on duty, because 1 know , what you sleop on. You sleep, on a pile of shavings in t the pattern t shop." ' - ' , , . , . , "Shut up now,' said the watchman, "But you wanted to know If anything was doing , . 1 r "Then why don't you tell me?" continued the wstchman. " . 'Well, if you'll Just wake up for three minutes I'll try to give you j plans and specifications of 'What we've been doing this day. We've : handled a big Corliss engine breakdown. The fragments came In hero .early this morning and It's a rush Job, I hauled up some good big pieces and the superintendent of the mill came with the Job and he's a fussy man. Said .420 folks was put idle and could get no wages till . this Job was finished. I expect they'll be working on it to-night- that . will Interfere with your slumbers, won't it?" -"I don't slumber at 'night," broke In the watchman. ;;;''-'; "So you don't, I forgot that," said the boy. Then he went on. "We ; shipped out four reels, a lot of cotton seed oil repair stuff, twenty or thirty pulleys, a waste cleaning machine for a mill up North, some dob-' bles to a mill In Philadelphia, and a whole lot ot stuff besides." 4 ' "Here's your bed room floor," said the boy, as the elevator reached ( tha third. The watchman got oft and as 'he walked away he said, "I believe" you are going to be a worse boy than Billy was." The boy smiled and reversed the elevator to go back down, : The D. A. Tompkins Co..
