WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-A new effort TO secure the
passage OF bill to refund the cotton tax will un-
doubtedly be made this Winter, and members of the
Committee on Ways and Means have already been
approached by persons wishing to secure their sup
port for it, This tax, Which was collected between
1865 and 1865, it will be remembered,
has been decided by the Supreme Court Of the
United States to have been unconstitutional. \
year ago strong lobby was organized for the pur-
pose OF securing refund Of this tax. The certifi-
Gates showing its payment have been bought up In
the South at nominal rates, and said 10 have
been held ty a few speculatOrs, and had they sue
ceeded, those interested would have made clear
profit of from $50, 00O, 900 TO J0,OO0,OOO.
This year several new plans have been proposed.
One is that the tax shall be refunded to those who
actually paid it, without regard to present owner
ship of the certificates showing such payment An
other proposes to issue United states bonds, equal
in amount to the tax paid by the citizens of each
State and to make those bonds perpetual free
school fund.- the interest to be applied 10 the support
Of free schools in the Southern States provided the
authorities of those States keep In operation such
system as required by the bill. Other propositions
st provide for refunding the tax to the present
holders of tax certificates.
The amount Of this tax collect i was about
800 O00O 600. The passage Of bill to take this
out of the Treasury IN any form would more than
COunterbalanee the largest sum which the House
can hope to save by the utmost economy in public
expenditures.

half q minute too late, raised his cane and
broke the glass of the clock The King re-
