Show I Jill Underwood Says theNe-braska theNe-braska Leader Has Received Re-ceived His Reply Washington, June 2. The house majority having finished its party acrugglo over the wool tariff and agreed to support tho Underwood bill, placing a duty of 20 per cent nd valorem on raw wool, prepared to meet the attacks on the proposed revision of tne schedules that are to come from the Republican minority. The Democratic plan was to introduce intro-duce the wool bill today and refer it to the ways and moans committee, by which it would be reported favorably favor-ably next week. Representative Underwood, Un-derwood, who, with Speaker Champ Clark, led the fight for a revenue tariff on wool from tho beginning of the special session, said: "Tho adoption of this bill and tho unanimity with which it was received by the Democrats, many of whom did not favor It as a policy but who were eventually brought to see its revenue necessity demonstrated again tho earnestness and wisdom of tho Democratic Demo-cratic House. As for Mr. Bryan's attack at-tack on the bill, 1 can only say that he has received his answer from Democrats Dem-ocrats who never bolted a caucus." The Senate was not in session today. |
