SUBSCRIPTION---SS.DO PER ANNUM WHERE DID THEDEPUTY PUBLIC EXAMINER GET AUTHORITY TO PUBLISH SECRET INDICTMENTS? Anent the much-discussed alleged indictment of Beltrami county offi- cials, and the request made by some of the well-meaning subscribers of the Pioneer, as to our not publishing the “indictments,” it is well to know that Deputy Public ‘Examiner Kain wrote from St. Paul, requesting the names of all persons who had been indicted at the last session of court, the letter being written on June 12th, two days after the St. Paul dailies printed the statement that the Beltrami county officials had been indicted, and also casually remarking that Deputy Kain had re- turned from Bemidji, where he had been pouring over the books for two months, i Mr. Kain was furnished with a list of the parties who had been indicted by the grand jury and which indictments were of a public nature and the list did not contain the name of any county official. Just where the examiner’s deputy obtained authority to state positively that certain officials had been indicted is for the public examiner’s office to explain. It is pretty certain that if any Bemidji paper had dared to have published such a statement, the proprietors of the paper would have been hauled before the district judge to answer to the charge of contempt. It appears to be differ- ent with the examiner’s office, at St, Paul. “AS YOU LIKE IT.” Under the above captain, the Hibbing Tribune says of the late merger of the St. Paul Dispatch and the St. Paul Pioneer Press: “St. Paul has some very enter- prising newspaper men. “They own the St. Paul Dispatch and they have bought the St. Paul Pioneer Press. “The former is an mdependent newspaper,’ and the latter is rock- ribbed republican. The enterpris- ing owners can turnish you anything in the political line to suit your taste. They are all things to all men. Subscribe for the Dispatch and they’ll dish you up the inde- pendent dope; take the Pioneer Press and they give you party loyalty ang good old G. O. P. doctrine. Great system.” Venezuelan Banker Defaults. ‘Willemstad, Curacao, June 30.—It 18 learned herc that the president of one of the banks of Maracaibo, Ven- ezuela, Is a defaulter to the extent of $60,000.

PRODDED BY COLLEAGUES Chairman of the Finance Committee Makes Interesting Statement in An- swer to Pointed Questions of Other Senators—Believes Corporation Tax Will Be Repealed After Two Years or Rate Materially Lowered. ‘Washington, June 80.—While the question of tea remained technically before the senate for a long time it was Impossible to keep the income tax and the corporation tax yuestions entirely In the background. They were referred to more than once and at one time so pointedly by Senator Clay as to bring out a most interest- ing statement from Senator Aldrich, who, as chairman of the finance com- mittee, presented the corporation tax amendment. Senators Bailey and Clay were. prod- ding the chairman of the finance com- mittee and appeared especially anx- lous to know whether he would revise the tariff schedules downward if the income tax amendment should be adopted in order to lower the revenue from customs to an extent equal to that which would be raised by the in- come tax. It was in response to a direct question from Mr. Clay that Mr. Aldrich resfbnded bluntly: “I shall vote for the corporation tax as a means of defeating the in- come tax. I shall be perfectly frank in that respect. I shall vote for it for another reason. The income of the government this year will show a deficit of §60,000,000. Next year there will be a deficit of $45,000,000. I am willing that the deficit shall be taken care of by a corporation tax, but at the end of two years it should either be reduced to a nominal amount or repealed.” Mr. Aldrich saild that he did not favor as a permanent form of taxa- tion a “tax which is sure in the end to destroy the protective system.” KILLED BY DECISIVE MAJORITY Tillman Amendment Placing Ten-Cent Duty on Tea. ‘Washington, June 30.—When the tariff bill was taken up in the senate the Income tax question was put aside to enable Benator Tillman to present his amendment for a duty of 10 cents & pound on tea with the purpose in view of completing the schedules be- fore taking up the tax question. Everybody was anxious to vote, but the South Caroline senator was full of his subject and wanted to speak. That he proceeded to do, telling of the superior quality of the American grown tea, of the -enormous- profits made in the imported article and of the possibilities in case the domestic industry should be properly fostered. In reply to a question he said he be- Heved that with the duty he asked for the South would not only be able to supply the entiro American market, but would eventually export a large quantity of the leaves that produce the beverage. Benator Dixon suggested a bounty as & means of nurturing the infant tea industry. Mr. Tillman responded that he did not propose to be caught in advocating a bounty. He would not accept a bounty, he said, if $1 a pound was offered. He was not seeking any selfish advantage for South Carolina, but wanted to benefit the entire coun- try. Democrats Oppose Colleague. ‘With two mild speeches in favor of the duty by Senators Heyburn and Carter, which were much diluted with protection ingredients, the debate for a time was not especially animated, but there was a slight warming up when the Democrats began to align themselves against the proposition of their South Carolina colleague. Senator McLaurin, the uncompro mising Democrat, was the first to op- pose it, as he did vigorously. Sen- ator Owen added his voice in opposi- tion, declaring that tea was protected by the-tea importing monopoly, which kept the price 50 cents a pound high- er than it would be without that mo- nopoly. Senator Shively insisted that it was fallacy to claim that the development of the tea growing industry in this country would be served by such a duty. A Republican vote from the South was pledged to the duty as a protec- tive measure. The pledge was made by Senator Bradley from Kentucky. Senator Bailey gave the duty his sup- port purely as a revenue ralsing ex- pedient. The, Tillman amendment was de- feated, 18 to B5. Auto Bursts Tire and Skids. Elizabeth, N.

ENTERS SENSATIONAL STAGE ®ight of Rival Claimants for Venezu- elan Concessions. Caracas, Venezuela, June 30.—The case of the Orinoco corporation and the Venezuelan government, which, according to the arbitration protocol of last February, is to be settled di- rectly between the parties concerned, has entered upon sensational develop- tents. After a newspaper campaign of weeks on the part of rival claimants to block approval of the American protocol Nicomedes Zuolaga and Pe- dro Uztaris, clalmants to the Imataca iron mine in opposition to the corpora- tion, have brought suit for criminal libel against Rudolph Dolge, the Ca- racas representative of the corpora: tion, charging him with having pur- posely retained certain documents signed by George Turnbull until Turn- bull was out of the country and then glving the documents publicity. Turn- bull left Caracas June 14. These pa- pers are said to be exceedingly dam- aging to Messrs. Zuolaga and Uztarls, whose alleged titles to the Imataca mine are, 1t is asserted, shown to be not valid. * Zuolaga and Uztaris re- serve the right to bring action against John Brewer, the American consular agent here, and any other persons who may be implicated with Mr. Dolge.
