< _THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: FRIDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1001, that the day is near at band when every- one employed at the various branches of industry and coming under the jurisdiction of the Amalgamated association, may be enrollcd as a member, prepared to defend and promote the interests of tne entire craft and to further the great cause for which we unite and federate-the cause of human Justice. Ofcers of the International Association of Machinists report that their strike has very largely succceded in establishing the nine-hour rule in that trade. They clalm the settlements reached have given 60,000 machinista a shorter day, 15,000 others are aftected by compromises reached and 75,000 machinists will receive an average of cents a day increase in wages. For Larger Asweasments, The repc © notes a growing tendency to agreements to create a defense fund. It recommends changing the federation's con- stitution so as to admit of a larger assess- ment, and the levy by the executive council early iri the year of a portion of the assess ment provided so that a fund may be at ite disposition at any time In the Interests of the afiiated organizations engaged in a protracted struggle which they could not singly support. It also recommends au- thorizing a committee to meet with the Western Federation of Miners looking to their afliation. The report denounces the employment of young children and contends for grenter organization among women workers. Advocate Chinese Exelusion.

Accordingly Paul McCormick of Montana, L. O. Fullen of New: Mexico and W. E. Bol- ton of Oklahoma spoke of conditions In their respective states and territories. M. P. Buell of the Chicago Live Stock exchange then arose to remind the delegates that a big vaudeville entertainment for visiting cattlemen had been arranged to take place at the Auditorium tonight. C. J. Mills of Oregon »nd W. B. Powell of Pennsylvania followed in brief speeches, culogizing their respantive states. Henry Wade, registrar of live stock of Ontario, Canada, read an Interesting paper on the live stock business of Canada. « ‘The recommendation of the egecutive committee that resolutions condemning the Grout anti-oleomargarine bill gave rise to a lengthy and spirited debate among dele- gates present today at the session of the live stock convention.,. Leonard Pearson of Pennsylvania, speaking for the “dairy fn- terests, who uphold the Grout bill, led the debate with the plea that with oleomarga- rine selling under its own colors butter could not hold its own. ‘“Cattlemen,” said he, “Insist that coloring of oleomargarine should be allowed, yet you insist that the wool Interests should be protected against shoddy mesquerading as wool. Cowan Discusses Packers' R Ex-Governor Packard of Towa moved that the ‘whole subject be deferred, when Judge Cowan arose and sald that packers had much right to color oleomargarine as dairy- men have to color butter. The discussion was participated In by members of the Kansas, Californla, Missour!, Michigan and lowa delegations. It was the first general debate of the convention. Judge Cowan brought the speaking to an end by moving the previous question. The resolution against the Grout bill was adopted but over a good sized minority. Colonel Simpson, following the reading of his rogular paper, made a brief plea for a ship subsidy. A resolution to admit Okla- homa to statehood was adopted. Bills to be urged upon congress to provide for tagging cloth goods to show its exact composition and to provide for a classifica- tion assesament of cattle were approved by the convention. The committee was divided over framing « bIIT' providing for the ex- change of publie lands- a8 medtioned in Sen- ator Warren's report and & minority roport referring the matter to a committee of five was adopted.

M'COMAS ADVOCATES THE DEATH PENALTY President Frye Names Senate Com- mittes on MeKinley Memorial and Upper House Takes Receas Until Monday, WASHINGTON, Dec. 0.—Senator Me- Comas of Maryland made an extended and carefully prepared speech in the senate today with anarchy for his theme and wa followed by some brief remarks by Mr. Hoar of Massachusetts on the dificulties in the way of dealing with anarchist assas- sins. Mr. McComas' remarks showed care- ful examination of the legal authorities. He maintained that congress had full power under the constitution to enact law punishing with death any person kill- ing a president or assaulting the president with iIntent to kill, or aiding, inciting or procuring such an act. He favored rigid provislons in the immigration laws for the deportation of allen anarchists. Much of the speech was devoted to an explanation of the dangerous doctrines of anarchy and tho extent to which these doctrines had been propogated within recent years. Banishment as & Cure. Senator Ioar's remarks were interesting as coming from the venerable chairman of the judiclary committee, which will have much to do with the traming of any leglala- tion on this ubject. He said the difi- culty was that assassins of kings and rulers always gloried in their crimes and were in nowise deterred by the fear of pynishment. For this reason he thought it almost useless to multiply punish- ments. The most effective remedy, he s gested, would be to have the civilized na tlons of the world agree upon some deso- late spot on the earth's surface, to which afl anarchists who upheld assassination or the overthrow of government should be transported, In such a community the anarchist could carry out his theories of ltving without a government and the world would be rid of his presence. Senator McComas sald Within seven years President Carnot, Prime Minister Canovas del Castilleo, the empress of Austria, King Humbert' and President McKinley 'have been foully as- sassinated by anarchists. Our homes are still under the shadow of national grief for our best beloved president and the heart of the world fs with us in our sorrow. It Is humiliating to consider how impotent are our federal laws to punish this fearful crime. Thee tragle assassinations in different countries, widely separated, in so short a time, xhow that this hideous crime of anarchy Is Increasing. To abnormal minds, possessed with the impulse to homicide, envy and vanity, give a peculfar fascination to the idea of the assassination of a king or a president. Congress must leglslate against this new peril with courage, with firmness, but also with conservatism ‘and prudence. 'The con- stitution permits congress to enact a law to punish such crimes against the very existence of the government the constitu- tion ordained. Crime Against Whole Nation. After definliig the terms of a prepared statute, fixing the death penalty for killing « president or assaulting him with Intent to kill, or advising, inciting or procuring such acts, the senator proceeded as follows: This soverelgn nation is not so weak that' 1t must deperd upon the varying laws «t Ite different ‘states to punish a criminal Wwho assassin Qr attempts to assassinate the presidentiWhom the constitution de- clares "shall Wake care that the laws he faithfully exeduted.” The president is within this the peace ot the United States. A person assafiing the president while In ‘the discharge of his duties violaten this peace. It the president i recelving the peopie of our country or representatives of forelgn countries in'any clty of any of our states, he i« at the time within the peace of the United States, If, atter he pertorms such function, he'jour: neys to the White House and at night when asieep the nar wherein he sleeps be as- saulted with dynamite, such crime is still a crime against the eace of the Trnited States In Whatever stato the president's train may be. Can this be doubted? Law Should Be Broad. The president's duty s continuous, not pretermittent. He 1s always on duty, he cannot delegate his higest functions, Until he dles or reslgns or ends his term he is ever taking care that the law be faithfully executed. The president 18 In the peace of the United States at all time and In all laces {n the union. Congress may go urther—it miy ‘euact laws 1o protect the high executive officers, it may even protect senators and members of congress. It s wise to legisiate now to protect the head of the state—the president and the vice president and the officers on whom the office resident shall devolve—-and now 80 no further. It may be prudent to declare that this statute is not to be construed to impalr the protection already afforded by the law to other officials of the United States. Gongress should enact a law to glve federal courts jurisdiction to try and punish by imprisonmeént for a term of years, two of morc who confederate and conmpire (6 murder the president or vice president or both or any of the officers in line of succes- sion to the president, or who advise or invite any person to overthrow the federal government by willfully assaulting the president or vice president or any of the aficers in line ot succession to_the presi- ent. Punish Incendiary Speech. This statute should make it a crime, with penalty of imprisonment for a term of years, for any E«!lon to knowingly become or continue to be a member of any organi- satlon, club or assembly where any berson or persons advise or Incite uny of the of- fenses before mentioned. Such statute should make it a crime punishable by fm- prisonment for « term of years for any pej kon or persons to threaten or to peak, write, print or publish any works or dec: larations to counse llu,x. advieing or inclting other persons to willfully kil or to assault with intent to kil the president.

With thero we m ntend in other fashion Why should we not, a8 we may, expel alien anarchists for cause? Rigld Immigration Laws, The senator also urged numerous amend- ments of the immigration laws with a view to excludiog anarchists. In conclusion he Baids At all_times the body of the plain people, whom Lincoln loved and llrnn whom C- Kinley leaned, are its unfalling defenders. This great people, facing the hideous perti of anarchism, taught by their sorrow to tnink straight and sce clear, now rate more | highly than ever the value of thelr gov- { ernment, prize more than ever its benefits, Which are theirs to enjoy and theirs to transmit. More than ever before are now revealed to them its blessings, its glory and its power. Aunouncement of Committeen.

The principal renewals are with Great Britain and cover the British West Tndfes The extradition treaty with the Argentine Republic and the trademark treaty with Guatemala also were received by the senate and were referred without deba The senate spent some time during the exocutive session discussing the proper committee reference of the nomination of Eugene Hendry, to be marshal for the ter- ritory of Hawall. The nomination at firet was referred to the committee on Porto Rico and Pacific Islands, of which Senator Foraker is chalrman, but Senator Bacon ralsed the point that Hawail is a full- fledged territory of the United States and that therefore the nomination should go to the committee on territories; Senators Tel- ler, Foraker, Spooner and Bacon engaged in the controversy which followed and the question was ultimately on the suggestion of Mr. Spooner referred to the committeo on rules, for the formulation of a rule goy- erning the subject, the resolution meantime being held up. Mr. Penrose of Pennsylvania favorably reported from the committee on education | commission until February 15 in order that | it may elose up work now In hand, and secured Immediate consideration for the measure. The bill way passed Duty on Immigrants, Senator Penrose Introduced In the senate a bill for the regulation of immigration, prepared by himselt and the commissioner general of Immigration, which looks to a general rovision of the laws upon this question. The measure provides for a duty of $3 per head on all persons coming Into the United States from forelgn coun- tries, except those who are citizens of this country or of Canada or Mexico, the fund to be thus raised to be applied to the payment of the expenses incident to the | regulation of immigration. Te bill ex- cludeg all 1dfots, paupers and persons liable to become charges and those affiicted with | loathsome or contagious diseases. It pro- hibits aseistance in the matter of passage and provides heavy penalties for the im- portation of women for immoral purposes. Steamship companies are prohibited. under heavy penalty from advertising for foreign business. The senate confirmed the nomination of Willlam Dudley Foulke of Indiana to be a clvil service commissioner. At 2:30 the senate went Into executive | TRUSTS AND THEIR NATURE (Continued from First Page.) a place where government supervision is necessary. How much interference should be had is the question.

This must be curbed. “'State Interference amounts to mothing. We have an anti-trust law in Nebraska, but it is ineffective so far at least.

We do not want a beneficient tyranny. “Those who advocate the destruction of corporations are courting industrial an- archy. If American manufacturers are to cope with those of forelgn countries they must be allowed to use as much capital in thelr business. “Mr. Carnegle is authority for the state- ment that while American goods are selling treely in forelgn countries, much fs being s0ld at cost or below, in order to unload the surplus. 1f this were not done the fac- torles would have to close and the mines shut down." How Publicity Would Help. Asked what beneficlal results would ac- crue from publicity he said that publiclty would have a similar effect upon corpora- tlons as upon banks. When the corporation incorporates it must show that the value of the holdings are equal to the capjtalization. “Take the Standard Oll company. What benefit would be recelved from that?’ was asked. “Probably less In the case of the Stan- dard OIl company than any other. It has a gold mine. In this case the public would understand the financlal condition of the company." “Do you think that publicity would deter the public from Investigating in watered stock " “What T want 1s & law which will pre- vent the Issuance of stocks and bonds in excess of actual value.

It might reduce dividends and probably reduce wages to a certain degree, and there is a question whether or not the reduction in the price of the product would benefit the people generally. “On the other hand, the party who was to erect bulldings, using eteel beams, might be benefited, Would it benefit anybody else? The tariff is one of those things which depend upon constantly changing conditions. 1 do not suppose at the present time it benefits the steel companies, as they are selling In competition with the world. But it may be that they are selling on the forelgn market at cost and takiog their profits from Americi “What henefit is it to the people If sales are made below cost abroad?” Well, the miner and the millman are kept busy in America.” Operation of the rin, On the question of tariff H. W. Yates and labor the bill continuing the industrial |§ session and at 3:45 adjourned until Monday. i' There 18 one thing I | @& There should be a iaw which | 2,000 tons could be sold in America for lass motey and the 3,000 tons be sold abroad at half price and a higher profit made than when only 2,000 tons were manutactured Returning to the question, Mr. Rosewater sald: “UI a1l articles made by trusts wore to be put upon the free llst & number of persons would start trusts to get their products on the free Iist. The tariff must bo discussed free from the trusts.' Following the running discussion, C. J Smyth said that while he not pre- pared to say that publicity fs not a good thing, he belleved there fs enough legisla- tion now on the books to curb or destroy every trust. What is needed fs men strong enough to enforce the laws. The United States can enforce any law it desires. The attorney genepal of the United States fs probably the only man in the country who does not know trusts oxist in this country The speaker said that with Mr. Rosewater he believed the state can accomplish little, but it can accomplieh something. was PENSIONS FOR WESTERN VETERANS, % Remembered by the General Government, WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.—(Special.)—The following western pensions have been granted issue of November 15: Nebraska: Qriginal-G Bentric [ncrease, res emont, $4; , $24;" Martin L. ) homas Coppinger, Raymond, 36 James 8.
