THE OMAHA DAILY Ll YAOTAT ¥ BEE: FRIDAY. JUN TR B 1891 *~with reckless and headlong speed Into the abyss of political ruin.’ Senator Hill presented several tables of figures to show that the amount of revenue ralsed by the tariff bill as now proposed would be amply sufficlent without to the income tax “It has been difficult to fathom the motives of the finance committee In their Insistence upon the deferring of their present duty on sugar untll January, 1505, The committee, it must be admitted, did not very suces fully defend the propriety of thelr action Thelr attitude has placed them in an awk ward and unpleasant position, Inviting much eriticlsm which might better have been avoided, r, can It be possible that their well known anxloty to retain the income tax pro- v'sion In this bill has led them to postpone fhe Aate for the operation of the sugar tax .0 order that there might be created an ap parent greater necessity for this ne tax? It so, it Is understood yme other pi text, some other 80N other subte fuge must be invented. In their mad haste ta attack the rich, the champlons of an in come tax efther In itionally or inadvertently assalled the poor. “Until the amendments fngs banks w offered ye rday in the senate the progiam of the majority here seemed to be to place such Institutions on substantially the same level with business corporations and to subféct them to the 2 per cent tax. If there was any other In terest it Is not apparent. “I have not had time to examine the new amendments which are for the first time printed and placed upon our desks this morning, to determine whether they contain absolute exemption for mutual savings banks or not, but from hearing them as they were read at the sccretary’s desk yesterday I think they are not sufficiently broad to ac- complish that purpose. “They should be made so plain and clear that there can remain no possible doubt of their Intention. Argument ought not to be necessary to sustain the proposition that mutual savings banks should be absolute exempt from any income taxation. This gov. ernment cannot afford to permit the savings of the poor to be taxed throngh a general fncome tax. It “would be the crowning in- famy of this bill."" The same reason, relating to sav said Senator Hill, savings banks should be exempt from this tax applies to the mutual insurance com panies, and he was not sure that the amend ments offered went far enough in this re spect. This class of insuranco companies were exempt in Great Britain, He had numerous other objections to the income tax, he continued, objections he had pointed out In his former speech; its inquisitorial features and inevitable exposure of the pri- vate affairs of business men. None of these objections had been remedied. They could not be eliminated because they must lie against any income tax. Mr. Higgins followed Mr. Hill. Mr. Chand- ler rose to resent the terms used by Mr. Allen yesterday in replylng to his charge that there was a bargain by which he was glvon free lumber on condition that he should vote for the bill. A. dead silence grected this remarkable ttack. Mr. Allen was pale but calm when he roso to reply. ALLEN IS EMPHATIC. “This is the fourth time,” he began in a fow but steady voice, “the senator from New Hampshire has seen fit to speak of ‘bargains’ in connection with my vote. I do not know whether the language is par- lamentary. 1 am not skilled in parliament- ary proceedure, but I do know It Is untrue and ungentlemanly. 1 think he made the insinuation deliberately, knowing it was falso. He has tried to place me in the posi- tion of a traflicker of votes. The insinuation or stigma that I have traflicked my vote, that I have agreed to vote for this measure in consideration of concessions made or to be made is untrue. If I were where I could De plainer,” he added, looking Mr. Chandlet in the eye, ““I would e plainer. I made a motion a fow weeks ago to strike lumber Y.#rom the dutiable list, as I had a right to do, I have a right to get what I can for my people. I am not bound to the democratic or the republican party, but I am an humble representative of a new party. As such I ani -mors_or less a_ skirmisher between the old party lines. I repel the low, dirty in- sinuation of the senior senator from New Hampshire,” he said in conclusion, ralsing his volco till it rang through the chamber, “and I reiterate and reafirm with all the energy I possess what I safd yesterday.” “What the senator has said,” said Mr. Chandler, jumping to his feet as soon as Mr. Allen st down, “only emphasizes what 1 said a moment ago, namely: That he does not comprehend tho courtesy that character- fzes debate in this body.

That motion was made Immedi- ately after he had publicly announced that lis ‘vote was doubtful. It was in the bar- gain, I believed then. T belleve it now. I simply Inquired of the senator whether the bargain had been closed, whether it was complete. I made the inquiry and I do not think he was warranted in becoming indig- nant and using the unparliamentary language of which he was guilty “Why does the senator (Allen) feel resent- ful when 1 inquire whether the bargain is closed so that we shall no longer expect to see him dodge in and out. The whole thing was open and patent to the whole country, and the senator, instead of becoming indig- nant, ought to have calmly admitted that he had ‘been landed and secured in the demo- cratic camp. “I submit,” said Mr. Chandler, turning to Mr. Allen, who sat within twenty feet of him across the aisle, “that under the cir- cumitances the senator was not justified In words he used, I have never used op- probrious epithets or unparlia ntary lan- on this floor, no matter how pointed remarks may have been. I never have and never will “I regret,” sald clusion, have surroundings of tered this body him to obsorve all gentlemen r partisan de my he dlse the s deliberately, In con- vered that the early wator before he en- were such as not to allow the common courte:les which gard even in the most heated ates. The senator from N braska is to be pitied rather than censured for what he could not help.” The senate sat breathle:s for fully a min- ute after Mr. Chandler resumed his seat, but this closed this sensational episode, and the debate on the income tix was proceeded with, Mr. Hoar of Massachusetts making a somowhat long argument against it, dwell- ing particularly on its inexpediency in time of peace and its objectionable feature as a mode of raising revenue for the federal gov- ernment. Mr. Aldrich moved that the date on which the Income tax should cease be January 1, 1898, The flnance committee compromise amendment to the house bill, which pro- vided no time limit, fixed the date on which it should cease on January 1, 1900. The amendment was defeated, 23 to 0. All the democrats voted against 1t, together with Dubois, Teller and Mitchell of Oregon (re- publicans), and Allen, Kyle and Peffer (pop- ulist). Mr. Hill, who was present, did not vote. The finance committee amendment fixing the time limit which the tax was to run at January 1, 1900, was then agreed to. Mr. Peffer then offered the amendment of which he gave notice yesterday to levy a graduated income tax. Mr. Peffer said it was true, as had been charged by Mr. Hill, that an ‘income tax was n popullstic idea. Personally he would prefer a graduated nd tax to a graduated income tax. HILL IS SARCASTIC. “If you will give the senators on this side time,” interposed Mr. Hill, “perhaps they will report land tax." 2 “I will give them five years when this tax expires,” replied Mr. Peffer, amid laughter. Mr. Peffer said the western people had been liewers of wood and drawers of water long enough. The populist party proposed now to make the east shoulder ifs part. Mr. Hill took the floor when Mr. Peffer concluded and congratulated the democratic majority on its new leadership. The senator from Kansas (Peffer) had anuounced the in- come tax belonged peculiarly and exclusively to his party. Before he had made that an- nouncement there had been some senators on the democratic side who evidently had labored under the impression that it was in some way a democratic doctrine. Mr. Peffer was right; the income tax was one of the first principles of the populist party; popu- lists had been consistent in its advocacy and were now about to witness its triumph. He did not desire to make any reflections upon populistic or soclalistic ideas. There were differences of opinion as to what they be- licved. The socialists believed in a paternal government; in the redistribution of property and the community of interest. Both social- ists and populists believed in an income tax. “It they do, that is the only respect in which they are similar,” interjected Mr. Allen. “Do the popullsts not believe in the gov- ernment ownership of banks, railroads and telegraph? u “They believe In the gradual assumption of ownership of railways and telegraphs by the government, but they do not believe in state ownership of banks." “How Is it,” sald Mr. Hill, “both belleve in paternal government and an income tax? The only differonce between them is that the sociallst party goes furthér than the populist “The ifncome tax,” interrupted Mr. Ald- rich, “is advocated by the socialist, the pop- ulist and the democratic parties (with a few honorable exceptions) as a means for the re- distribution of wealth." “It is not adyocated as a meana for the re- distribution of wealth,” broke 4n Mr. Teller, almost angrily. “No one ever” heard that statement made by any person whateves Mr. Hill was proceeding to say the in- come tax had so few advocates on the dem- ocratic side of the chamber it was proper that Mr. Pefter should assume the leadership, when Mr. Voorhees called attention to the fact he had advocated and defended it squarely in his first speech. Mr. Hill admitted this and sald he had looked up the senator's record and found he had advocated it years ago. It was then dropped by common consent of both parties, he added. Mr. Hill expressed the opinion, despito the decision in the Springer case, that the tax would be held to be a direct tax and would be declared unconstitutional. Mr. Pefler's graduated amendment was de- feated. The reports from the investigating com- mittee were then presented. The question of thelr reception occasioned considerable de- bate. Mr. Hill entered a motion not to receive tho report. FHe contended that a minority and majority report having been made as to the character of the questions to Havemeyer, Searles and McCartney, it was within the jurisdiction of the senate to decide whether the questions were materlal before having these witnesses certificd under the statutes as contumacious, Mr. Davis, a member of the committee, thought that since the newspaper men had been certified to the district attorney the sugar magnates should be treated In the e way. The question was left unde- cided when the senate, at 6 o'clock, went into executive session and then soon ad- Journed. MAY MAKE NEW ENTRIES. Settlers Who Have Been Driven from Home ven Another Chance, Congressman Kem today called up and se- cured the passage of the bill permitting each settlor Who has lost his claim by having to abandon it on- account of poor crops to make another entry.

Teller Mies for Woleott, WASHINGTON, June 21.—Senator Teller was before the senate Sugar trust investi- gating committee. He stated that he did not belleve that his colleague, Senator Wol- cott, had ever been Interested in Sugar stock.

Polities in the Civil Service. WASHINGTON, June 21.—A rumor has been in circulation about the capitol that it was the intention of the civil service com- mission to dism'ss all the federal office holders who attend political conventions. This was denied today by Civil Service Commissioner Roosevelt, who said the commission had no authority for such action. The rumor, he explained, probably had its origin in the re- issuance of President Cleveland's famous or- der of 1886 relative to politics in the admin- istration of government affairs.

D., June 21.—(Speclal to The Bee)—Last Friday Mayor I. W. Seaman of this city, who was recently elected by the prohibitionists, issued an order to the effect that the nine saloons and the half dozen holes-in-the-wall then running here should close on the following Tuesday. Tuesday hus passed and the saloons are closed, at least 50 the owners claim. Yesterday a few of them had their doors open, but only “strietly temperance drinks” were obtainable, Mayor Seaman s worth about $100,000 and he firmly asserts that he will. spend every cont he has, if necossary, to keep the lquor joints closed up. The sentiment of the business men appears to be f favor of regu- lating tho wmatter by licensing. - OQut of the elght aldermen, but one takes sides with the mayor on this question. The other seven have sent to Sloux Falls anil secured a copy of the “disorderly house" ordimance, under which that city colleets a monthly fine of $75 from the saloon keepers, and are in favor of adopting the same ordinance here, but collect §50 per inonth instead of 375 They argue that by doing this they can clear out the dives and reduce the nuwmber of sa- loons to about stx. 1If, after experience, they find that a $60 fine does not accomplish their they will raise it to §75. FREE SILVER LEAGUE | (Contiuued feom First Pago.) - Ty fit Zan hang thelr hats on thejr ears, spit through their teeth and ask for what they wanted. Judge Robinson was inslemand. He looked over the crowd andaigd.ho conld not help Femarking what & Stdhl felp these people would have been af*the last state conven- tion. He hoped they swould all bo at the next one, It had been unkindly said that they were here to dBstrdy the party. This was not true, as theinission was to save and not to destroy. . The party In Nebraska must be set right beforé the world. When the man who alone stdgd up for silver came back to his own they recefved him not. The time has come when platforms must say what they mean, and mean what they say, and Nebraska democracy must see to it that a silver plank s inserted in the next plat- form that It may be set in its true light be- fore the people. Hon. C. D. Casper of Butler said Butler county was always on the kick, and it was right in this movement. He introduced him- self as a_member of the impeachment com- mittee that didn’t impeach, although It proved its men guilty, He was for free cotnage, free silver, an income tax and W. J. Bryan. ' Thurston had said that this country couldn’t lend the American eagle to the silver mén, but it had always lent tho bird to the gold men whenover they wanted to borrow it. He had also said that we couldn’t think of allowing other countries to use the goddess of liberty, yet for $500,000 Ernest Seyd had raped her in 1873, He dldn't take any stock in that doctrine and wanted to seo silver put where it belongs. Dr. Abbott of Fremont, a rabid popullst, was called for, and said he congratulated the democrats. The populists had always stood by silver, whereas the democrats at thefr last state convention had almost declared it a fraud. He was glad to see the democracy coming into line where they could work to- getler. M This seemed to hold out hope of fuSion, and Tke Hascall was allowed to say that he was satisfied that principle would prevail against the machinations against it. The misguided individuals who had called for Hazcall had done so under the bellef that he would talk about something with which ho was famlliar, but when he tackled prin- ciple they realized their mistake, and the chilliness that was turned loose on the First ward councilman induced him to abruptly terminate his speech. MONEY RESOLUTION ADOPTED. The committeo on resolutions then came in with the following declaration of its position on the monéy question, which was adopted with a whoop: We send greeting to our fellow democrats of Nebraska and {nvite thelr earnest co- operation and aid in electing delegates from every county in the state to the dem- ocratic stite convention of 1894 pledged to vote for the insertion in the democratic state platform of the following plank: “We favor the immediate restoration of the free and unlimited coinage of gold and silver at the present ratio of 16 to 1, with- out walting for the aid or consent of any other natlon on earth." In the effort to obtain a fair expression of democratic sentiment, we urge upon every democrat who belleves in the prin- ciples herein enunclated to participate ac- tively and vigorously in the selection of delegates to the state convention. We recommend that in every county of the state the democrats who oppose this proposed plank be fnyited to a thorough dis ion of | a to the end that the democratic party may dct intellizently and harmoniously upon’this'great question. We propose thaf'thts contest shall be fought out upon clean lines and with in- telligent methods, but, confident in the cor- rectness of our pasition, we also propose that the fight shall be vigorous, and that no effort shall be spared to place in the platform of the defiiverdtic party the same emphasis, the samé unmistakable utterance concerning the gredt question of finance, as has been lastinglg) hmprinted upon our party platforms concenning the great ques- tion of tariff reform. The following resolution was also adopted: Resolved, That the democratic state con- vention be held at a date not later than August 10, and that'a committee of five be appointed by the éhalt’for the purpose of conferring with Blclid Martin, chairman of the state democratic: central committee, rejative to fixing th® .date. This- committeo ‘eonsists of C. J. Smyth and E. P. Smith of Omaha, E. W. Hubbard of Aurora, M. D. Webb of Lincoln, and Robert Clegg of Falls City. Each county was requested to send In the name of a vice president and the follow- ing report was made: Adams, John C. Stevens; Boone, A. D. Harrigan; Butler, C. D. Casper; Burt, Wil- liam Harrington; Cass, Charles Grimes; Cedar; John J. Geoble; Clay, T. Spoeich; Colfax, John Van Housen; Cuming, Gus Wessels; Dakota, Willlam Holsworth; Dawes, Charles Marrisey; Dixon, J. C. Con- nor; Douglas, Ed. P. Smith; Dundy, R. A. Ewing; Frontier, J. L.

In the countles which are not mentioned the delegations failed to select their vice presidents, deferring the matter until a later date, when they will be elected and the names forwarded to Secrctary Abbott at Fremont. It was then after 5 o'clock and the con- vention adjourned to meet again in the even- ing and hear Congressman Bryan deliver tho speech on which he proposes to captura the next legislature -and secure a title to Senator Manderson’s seat. THE DELEGATES. The incoming morning trains were loaded with delegates to the free silver conference and at noon there were about 600 properly accredited representatives, while nearly as many more interested silverites came in from various parts of th state to see and hear what was golng on, although they were to have no voice in the deliberations of the conference. The special train bringing the Lincoln contingent_arrived at moon over the Rock Island, and, headed by the Nebraska State band of twenty-four pieces, the Capital City crowd marchod up Tenth and Farnam streets to the Paxton, escorting Congress- man Bryan, who was accorded quite an ovation along the route. For more than an hour after arriving the First district corgressman was kept busy shaking hands, and he did it In that magnetic, whole- souled way that has heretofore brought him as many Votes as anytbing ho evor waid or id. Congressman Bryan was asked by a Bee reporter what his intentions were as to the work of the conferences and replied that he Lad nothing to do withiit, as the conference was sole judge of what was best. The dele- gates have assembled-here and it was for them to say what they wanted and voice their honest sentiments sgvithout regard to the personal desires ot &ny individual. When interrogatedsas to the probable com- plexion of the nextNebraska legislature, he sald that it would;belantl-republican by at least twenty majoelty,fand that the next senator from Nebrasial would not be a re- publican. He gt willing to declare his belief as to what would be the politics of the man selected, whetlier democrat or pop- ulist. He said he would return to Lincoln tonight on the specialitrain chartered by the Lancaster delegatien,: and would leave to- norrow for Washimgion, as he desired to bo in his seat Mouday, When the tariff bill would again be upsifor(consideration. In a reply to a question: @® to whether or not he would deliver awy speeches in this state during the coming campaign, he sald that he had promised to talk at soveral difforent points in various portions of the state, hav- ing heretofore been: confined to the counties of the First district. He was asked point- blank if It was not trua that ho in- tended to stump - the entire state, and with that wihning smile Ne answere “It 1s quite probable that I shall speak in several counties. 1 Wave promised to talk at a number of places, you know, and must Keep my agreement.” AS to his senatorial candidacy he a3 not difposed to ba very communicative, and the §Warm of admiring democrats why wanted @ chance to grasp the congressional hand rade anything like a connected eonversation an Impossibility.

The recorded rainfall for this section Wednesday night and yesterday morning was 1.07 inches, but 80 far the volume of water fn the river Is no greater than it was Wednesday The speed of the wind Wednesday night was recorded at the signal station as being thirty eight miles an hour, but the director of the station is of the opinfon that his instruments did not receiva the full force of the wind, and consequently the actual speed could not be recorded. The wind blew in an unchanging direction, but where it encountered obstruc- tions and blew around cornera the speed was estimated at fitty miles an hour. There bave been several storms in this section where the wind blew at the rate of forty miles, but did not do as much damage as has been reported this morning. In 1879, during the month of June, there was a wind storm here which traveled at the rate of sixty miles an hour Director Hunt said yesterday that the storm was all over, but that it would prob- ably be followed for a few days with heavy local showers and then the atmospheric con- ditions would become settled. While braska is in the storm center, the state, and especially Omaha, enjoys immunity from the more severe tornadoes and cyclonic disturb- ances, as the storm currents generally meet clsowhere. The storm Wednesday night trav- cled in a northwestern direction and lasted nearly two hot Two big skylfghts were blown from the Coll- seum Wednesday night and hurled through the air for a block and a half.

Texas Capltal Syndicato Must Pay a Nice Sum to the Sturges CHICAGO, June 21.—Judge Tuley this afternoon read his opinfon In the Sturges- Farwell litigation. It is a finding for Mra. Sturges of $75,000 in the suit against J. V. Farwell and C. B. Farwell and Abner Taylor on the Kensington contracts, to be patd in ninety days with 5 per cent Interest, a find- ing for Willlam Sturges of $111,390, to be credited on a note for §140,000 made in July, 1889, and due the syndicate. Judgment - was also entered in favor of J3.'V. Farwell for use of the syndicate against William _Sturges for $28,509, able In ninety days. In the Marquette contract, where $18,000 was deposited, the court gives J. V. Farwell $10,000 and the balance of $8,000 to Mrs. Sturges. The $75,000 ordered paid to Mrs. Sturges to complete the con- tract was the main matter of liti- gation. The court holds that Mr. L. Sturges was not regularly employed, yet his serv- ices were accepted by the company and must be paid for. The court overrules the contention that Mr. Sturges' services were of no value and holds that he did good work for the court litigation which is ended by this final arbitration, extending over a long series of years and in- volving & clalm for ~ over $2- 000,000 for services rendered by Willlam Sturges in promoting the Texas capitol scheme, The capltol was to have been built at a cost of $1,500,000 by Join V. Farwell of Chicago, his brother, ex-Senator C. B. Farwell, and ex-Congressman Abner Taylor. They were to receive from the state of Texas 3,000,000 acres of land stocked with 100,000 head of cattle. The building cost more than was expected, and to obtain funds Sturges attempted to interest foretgn capitalists, being promised, he claimed, 40 per cent of all profits over $3,000,000. The dispute was over the value of his services, Mr. Sturges is now In a sanitarium, his mind having falled during the present hearing. ——— Switchback and carousal Courtland. e PLATTE CANAL CONDITIONS. Commissioners Discussing the Proposition from Varlous Standpoints. The county commissioners met yesterday as a committee of the whole, but the matter of the Platte river canal was not touched, owing to the fact that the attorney for the board was busily engaged in going through and digesting the proposition submitted some days ago. The commissioners find the matter of such great importance that they will not be able to submit the report at the regular meeting to be held next Saturday afternoon. Already one roe which promises much that s the question of paylng the expenses of the special election “which would have to be held in the event that the bond proposition was submitted to the elec- tors of the county. In making the esti- mates of expense, the commissioners figure that it would require fully §15,000 to cover the expense of placing the booths, print- ing the registration books and paying the per diem of the reglstrars and members of the election boards. This sum the commis- gloners state that they would mnot feel Justified in taking from the funds of the | county. As yet the members of the board have not consulted with the officers of the company with reference to this ex- but they say that they have it from rity that the company will on bills. s Chinese performance at Courtland beach, found and been difficulty, has canal pens pretty good auth: not pay the ele Gov't Report.
