Caucus Of Republican senators.
WASHINGTON, d. c., April 3--The
caucus of Republican Senators this
morning was not very fully attended.
The education billswas the only topic Of
discussion, and several amendments pre-.
posed by the caucus committee were ap.
proved by the caucus. Chief among
them was proposition to reduce the
aggregate appropriations to between
$4,000, 900 and $50. .O00, 900. The bill
in its present form calls for SlO5, O00, 600
Debate ON the EducatiOn Bill.
WASHINGTON, April 3.--The Senate
resumed consideration Of the education
bill. Pendleton opposed its passage on
constitutional grounds.
Beck said the proper way to reach the
object sought was to reduce Government
taxation. One purpose of the bill was
to permit Republicans and prevent Dem
ocrats from reducing taxation by point
ing to this large appropriation. He
thought the new affection of the Repub.
licans for the Southern people danger
Gus. Troy, after withstanding ten years
of siege, tell when the Greeks brought
gifts. This bill was the entering wedge
to absolute Federal domination in the
South. Beck then entered upon the
tariff and said he was glad the Morrison
bill had forced both parties to declare an
issue-the Republicans in favor of pro.
lection, the Democrats in favor of tariff
for revenue. If Congress would enable
the South to buy cotton machinery free
of tariff, the Southern States could edu-
cate their own children.
He would favor setting apart for educ.
alton say, . per cent. on oil incomes over
$4,000. According to newspaper ac-
counts Vanderbilt would have to pay
about S24O, 900 on this basis. He never
trusted men twice. The Republicans
had control of lhe Southern States once
and their advancement in prosperity
only began when the Democrats secured
control,
Williams favored the bill and argued
that it was entirely constitutional.
Hoar and Harrison submitted amend.
ments which they intend at the proper
time to propose to the bill. Adjourned.
