filed by William K. Harris, who object 

 ed to the imposition of duty on tulip 

 and narcissus bulbs at the rate of $1 

 per thousand. The im|K)rter set up the 

 contention that the bulbs were free of 

 duty under the provision in the new 

 tariff for "bulbs, not edible and not 

 otherwise provided for in this section.'"

 treason is not yet fairly started. The 

 |)rosjtect is that the demand for bulbs 

 for outdoor planting will exceed all
