TARIFF AND REVENUE BILLS.

vOTR-A LIVELY DISCUSSION IN THE COMMITTEE.
The tariff and internal revenue bills were for
mally before the ways and means committee as a
whole this morning for the first time. After the
committee was called to order the two PROPOSE
tons were called up.
Mr. Reed, leading the minority, asked upon what
the bills were based; upon what authority the
majority OF the committee had prepared them
He said that no such bills had been introduced
into the House. and he wanted to know where the
committee got them
In reply II was said that they had the Presidents
message and various bills before them upon which
to base these bills.
Mr.. Reed questioned this source OF authority.
ceeded, as he put 1t,

regardless OF his objection that they were not ac-
quainted. In other words, the two bills were
made one by strict party vote.
Mr.: Reed presented petition for hearing re-
gardlng cement.
The majority opposed hearings, suggesting that
they would receive printed statements instead.
MIR. Reed protested against this method, which
he declared the committee knew was sham; that
they would not read, would not take time TO read,
such printed statements. He made
VIGOROUS PROTEST
against proceeding with a measure which affected
the industries OF the whole country without those
who were Interested In these various industries and
who alone knew and could explain their condition
and their needs being given chance to discuss
the matter and to lay before the committee the
facts, without which the committee would
be acting in the dark and endangering the
Industrial interests He said ironically, that
the majority OF the committee might be
entirely familiar with all the hundreds OF indus
tries affecred by the bill, but no other men pos
sessed such knowledge Each industry, h declased,
WIS the work OF a mans life to understand and 70
master, but the democratic members OF the com.
mttee acted as II they knew 1t ali and required no
more Information. To the end of the meeting he
scored the majority with his most bitter combina-
ton OF seriousness and irony, and an adjournment
was taken until tomorrow, pending vote on the
proposition to hold hearings

HAVING SATISFIED all claims and there

Rock Springs indemnity, China will
promptly return the surplus to the

money has never been claimed, but re-
mains in the q. S. treasury. It belongs

THE HERALD has always insisted that
certain element of the Liberal party
was bent on rule or ruin. It would
have its way or destroy all. 1t was
without reason and devoid of the senss
of justice. II it could not control, it
would destroy. Its disposition was to
wreck, and its efforts to ruin. That
faction is now asserting itself within its
own party. Certain Liberals having
declared their belief that partisan
politics ought not to figure in the
municipal government. but that in
stead there should be intelligence,
progressiveness and true and fair repre-
sentation as to classes as well as poll
tics, the radicals are exposing their true
inwardness in characteristic manuer.
They are trying to destroy their own
party because they cannot rule, and
keep it committed to its senseless radi
calism. If the rank and file of. the
Liberals are composed of the material
we believe them to be, they will move
forward while the sereheads butt their
own brains cut.

a NOVEL PROPOSITION.

A novel suit is to be tried in Kansas
City, and one which should result in
defining the responsibility of a mu-
nicipal corporation in the matter of the
protection of citizens. The suit was
brought by one George n. Clarkson. a
Chicago drummer. and is for 5000. He
was "held up" in the street. and robbed
and his claim is that the corporation is
responsible for the safety of life and
property within its limits. It is be-
lieved that this is the first suit of the
kind ever brought before court in this
country, and its outcome will be
awaited with good deal of anxiety and
interest. The theory upon which Clark
son bases his suit is correct one. The
corporation exercises control over indi-
viduals within the corporate boun-
daries, and assumes to guard property
and protect persons. Authority is con-
ferred upon it for these purposes, and
it collects money to employ police, to
maintain courts, to punish criminals
and to enforce regulations which have
been adopted for the government and
protection of society. But whether or
not the strict Interpretation of the
theory and language of corporation
law would make a municipality
| responsible in such case as that noted
| the robbery occurring through no neg
ligence or wrong-doing on the part OF
the robbed, it might have salutary
effect if the responsibility were fastened
upon the corporations. It would cause
cities to be more energetic in their
watehfulness, and in the punishment oil
criminals and suppression of despera-
does. The taxpayers are the corpora
tons, an they would compel the
garroters to clear out. and the robbers
to seek other field for their operations
