time the people Of our county were
moving In the matter II will not
do 70 wait until the opening Of the
Exposition, TO begin TO discuss the
question and consider what line Of
action TO pursue, Pamela, n Of
the w~ealthiest, most fertile and
most populous counties in Missis-
sippi, should most assuredly be
crcditably represented at the Ex.
position. And IL she should not be,
we all ought 10 feel most heartily
ashamed Of such inexcusablc neg.

and truest interests Of the State A.

thinks Pamela might appropriately
follow the example, though We
doubt whether the Board has the
proper legal authority for such
action. Still, we think such a
move would be wise and timely,
and we do no, believe the people
81 Pamela county would object to q
liberal appropriation for such On
important and laudable undertak-
ing. The county treasury Of Ia.
nola is full Of the people, money
lying idle, and it would doubtless
prove a paying investment to make
such an appropriation for the pur-
pose in question. We should ex.
hibit at New Orleans specimens Of
our timber, soils, sands, rocks,
fruits, flowers and the various pro.
auctions Of our soil. Now, it will
surely take money to collect these
exhibits aud pay for their trans
portation. And the question i.
how are we TO obtain il. As the
county Is 10 be benefited, we hold
that it would be naught but right
and proper for the people to foot
the bill. And, as we said before,
plenty Of money is in the couuty's
strong-box. The STAR submits
that some action should be taken
In this matter without much fur
Their delay TO say the least Of 1t,
we should get the project under
Roadway, so that our people may
know whether Pamela county Is 10
be represented at all or not. II the
county is too niggardly and non.
progressive TO take stock In the
greatest industrial Exposition of
the age, the sooner we know il the
better, for we perhaps have some
enterprising citizens, who, rather
than not be represented at all, will
themselves bear the expense Of
making individual exhibits.

Presidency Pro Tenn. Of the Senate.
ACTION OF THE REPUBLICAN CAuCCs

The caucus OF republican Senators yesterday af-
ternoon appointed committee, consisting OF Messrs
Morrill,, Hoar and Cameron, OF Wisconsin, to wait
upon Senator Anthony and confer with him in re-
gard to his election as president pro tenn. While
the republican sentiment was in the last Congress
and at the beginning OF this unanimously in favor
OF Mr.. Anthony, his severe Illness and continued
the subject necessary. The caucus was called
to consider this phase OF the matter. 1t was
said by some that Mr. Anthony's physical intirmity
was a bar to his election as, in view OF the fact
that there is no Vice President, the presidential
onice might in the course OF events devoive upon
the President OF the Senate. While there was en-
tire unanimity of sentiment as to Mr. Anthony's
eminent fitness in every other respect, it was
thought that the contingencies which might arise
from his physical condition deserved careful con-
sideratlOn. The republicans are deSirOuS OF mani
testing their high esteem for and confidence

ted from an active discharge OF the duties Of the
with him. and learn his wishes, 1t being suggested
that he might be rendered the honor and decline 1t,
or that he might be elected and Immediately re-
sign. The general sense seemed TO be that the
time and circumstances call for an occupant OF the
chair who shall be in all respects able to discharge
Morrill, alone call upon Mr. Anthony, and have a
friendly talk with him, which was done. While no
formal decision has yet been made, STAR re re-
porter learned from pretty good authority that Mr..
Anthony will not insist upon his election. He Is
daily improving in health but thinks that he is
not yet in condition to assume place OF such re-
sponsbilIty as that OF president pro tempOre Con-
sderatiOn for his health prompts him, 1t Is Sad to
decline the honor. Another caucus will be held
within few dayS-Some time next week-when
the committee will make formal report as to Mr.
Anthony, and candidate for the position will be
nominated. Mr. sherman is prominently men-
toned and Mr.. Ingalls, is talked of. Mr.. Edmunds
has supporters, but 1t is said he does not want the
place. Mr.. Ingalls, is one OF the finest parliament
tar1ans In the body, and some OF his friends think
Of urging lhS nomination The selection will prob
ably rest between MeSsrS. Ingalls, and sherman.

FOR TWO CONGRESSMAN 45 CENTs-SENATOR VAN
WICK CRITICIsEs THE ACCOUNTS OF MEssRs. BLISS
AND MERRICK.
Prior to sending the report Of expenditures by the
Department OF Justice In the star route trials to the
Government Printing Office to be printed, the
papers were submitted to Senator Van Wyck,
mover OF the resolution. He says there are about
sixty or seventy pages covered with items OF ex-
pense OF detectives. consisting chiefly OF payment
for drinks at Saloons hotel bills refreshments OF
various kinds, car fare, and theater tickets The
aggregate amount OF this sort OF expenditure foots
up several thousand dollars. perhaps as high as
5000. II is shown that the personal expenses OF
detectives ShadOwing ex-senator Spencer, including
the time he was in Washington, were about 81 500.
One detective reports investment OF As cents in

that he could not go Details but that of the

there were no trials in progress after June. MIR.
Merrick put in bill for 5000 for services, from
April 9th to July 3Oth and the controller called for
detailed account so as to charge the proper pro-
portion against each fiscal year. Mr. Merrick's
reply was In substance that 81 800 was for services
prior to June Both, and $500 for services subse-
Quent to that time. whereas continued Senator
Van Wyck, "there was no trial progressing in July
and it's not easy to see how MeSSrs Bliss and Mer.
rick could be earning money when there was
nothing doing"
WHAT Mr. MERRICK sAYs-HE DESIRES TO HAVE TH1
WHOLE MATTER INVESTIGATED.

The Senate and the Personal Tax,
WHAT SENATOR HARRIS SAYS

Several years ago subcommittee OF the Senate
District committee, OF which Mr. Harris was chair
man, gave an exhaustive hearing to the question Of
abolish1ng personal taxation In the District or OF
substituting license system for 1t. delegation
headed by Mr. Davidge appeared and argued at
length In favor OF the change. The subject came
up in connection with the municipal code, which
was under consideration The sub committee finally
reported against the license system and In favor Of
personal taxation. Speaking on the subject to-day
Senator Harris said that there are objections
sonal taxation; that 1t authorizes subordinate tax
ahard swearing" and tends he thinks, to "cheapen
the sanctity OF oath;' that the principle which
what is protected by government outweighs these
objections He said he does not believe that one
half OF personal property is ever returned for taxa
ton.
