Stag IMMIGRATION. BILL CAUSED TUMULT Wild Excitement In Héuse During Debate Over Amendments For Exclusion.of Asiatics—Representative Mann Coun- | sels Republicans: o Place Country Above Party Ad-| vantage—Amendments Overwhelmingly Defeated. | Washington, Feb. 3.—Asiatic exclu- sion agitation was quieted temporarily at least, in the house today after a heated debate that brought both re- publican and democratic leaders to" the floor with pleas for calmness and de- liberation. By overwhelming votes the house stripped from the immigration bill under consideration all amend- ments which would have placed a bar ngvamst Asiatic immigration. _The action was taken after repub- lican leader Mann, Representative Sherley of Kentucky and other lead- ers had made a vigorous fight to over- come the sentiment which last night expressed itself by a vote of 111 to 90 in faver of the perfection of an amend- ment to exclude Mongolians, Malays and negroes. The speakers insisted there should be no hasty action that might embarrass the stats department in "its relations with the Japanese government, Mann Quiets the Storm. _The house was surcharged with ex- citement. The anti-Japanese forces rushed action, Representative Raker of California presenting a_substitute for a pending drastic exclusion amend- ment presented by Representative Hayes. The debate quickly became heated and involved. The house was in confusion, with half a dozen members vociferously de- manding an opportunity to be heard when the tide was turned by Repub- lican Leader Mann, who strode to 'he center of the chamber and quieting we ought California concluded finaily | mid a tumult of app Amendments Decisively Defeated. The debate continued, but when | votes were forced the ndmehts | were decisively defeated, Consideration of the bill was con- tinued through the day but no amen ments of material importance wer written into the measure. It w greed to allow the immigration bill right of way tomorrow, when it wili be passed.

The cow was their east of burden doing all the < as well as furnishing milk for the family while the sheep furnished clothing. Their general fare was all produced o nthe farm. Corn bread bean porridge and milk was their diet vear in and year out. Mr. Nott was in ill health so the hard work indoors her sons walked the four miles to Ash- ford church. With the other boys of that day her sons had the advantages of the District School, but they gained a higher education by persistent home study; Eliphalet passed his entrance examinations into Union college by having studied by himself. At one time when one of her sons needed a new suit of clothes and there was no means of getting it, she shear- time had the garments ready. The sheep she provided with blankets sewed on him, until his fleece should grow again This son was destined to be one of the most successful college presidents of his day, and the other son, Sam- uel, spent 61 years in the same church in Franklin, molding the lives of two genarations, for the better.
