JOE KING BACK AT LAST t ON THE TRIPOD; As the tariff views of Mr. Wilson suit us fairly well we naturally do not agree with tnose of Mr. Sim mons. - It was not ani error of Judgment Hxen Mr. Simmons voted In the In terest of the lumber trust. He knew what he was doing and why he was doing It. ' If we contend that our industries nieed protection and that It is right for them to have It then it Is fool ish in us to vote either for Mr. Wilsoni or Democratic Representa tives. J They will stick to it that Mr. Sim mons was selected by the Democrats of the Senato to take charge of the tariff bills in that body although everybody by this time knows how the matter was) worked.
