tee. The internal revenue sections OF tho
bill have been orly lightly touched upon
so far, and this resolution stirred up North
Carolina members to bitter onslaught on
the bill. They delared that the
people wanted an unconditional repeal of
the tobacco tax, instead of compromise
reduction made by the committee, and also
served notice upon the caucus that the Cal.
ifornia members, as we'll as themselves,
would have to vote for the proposition to
remove the revenue tax on fruit brandy,
let 1t come from the republican or demo-
cratic side, II the caucus refused to include
that provision in the bill. This brought
Scott to the front in defense Of the bill and
lively debate followed.
In Difference to the wishes OF North Caro-
lima members, the resolution was finally
withdrawn, in order to allow them to hear
an expression of sentiment by their state
convention.
resolution was adopted pledging the
caucus to proceed with the cOnsid ration
of the tariff bill in the house, Immediately
after the disposition Of the legislative ap-
ptopriation BILL.
Another resolution was also adopted
requiring all demooratic members to be
present, or secure pairs, during the five
minute debate in the house.
Stone Of Missouri offered proposition to
restore the duty on lead ore to within five
per cent. of the existing rate; referred to
the democratic members of the ways and
means committee.
Paris green was placed on the free list.
The caucus then discussed the pottery
clauses which are obnoxious to New Jersey
people,.
:. Springer renewed his motion to bind the
democratic members to support in the
house only such amendments as are en-
dorsed by democratic members of the ways
and means committee onlcaucus. Adopted

RICHARDSON'S SEAT SAFE.
Electing Successor to Mr.. Herbcrt-vigi-
lance COMMITTEES.

A gentleman who travels constantly on
the Delaware railroad told reporter of
the EVENING JOURNAL that Chairman
Williamson of the Kent Democratic Com
mittee says that it is all nonsense to talk
about unseating A. d. Richardson.
Had Mr.. Cleveland been elected, said
Williamson, "and the United States Senate
been Democratic then he would have I'M
dertaken it, but as it is there is no use.
This opinion was concurred in by
number of Dover Democrats of the Vol
colt faction.
The same gentleman said that the Re
publicans were too previous when they
claimed that a Republican would be
elected state treasurer. The law, he says,
provides that the state treasurer shall be
elected by the house and his choice con
CURED in by the senate. OF course the
senate would not concur in the election
of Republican, although it will be
anxious to get rid of Mr.. Herbert who is
Salisbury man.
Two leading Democrats from Smyrna
told reporter this morning that they
cat Smyrna)were talking of giving John
f. Salisbury thirty days notice to quit
the state, and if he did not leave to send

party thought that it would be lust the

TREASURER AND AUDITOR.
The Democrats do Not Propose to Allow
the Republicans to Elect.

The Democrats do Not Propose to Allow
the Republicans to Elect.
The positions of state treasurer and
state auditor become vacant at the com
idg session Of the Legislature and in the
nature of things their successors
will be elected But with two majority
against them the Democrats do not pro
pose to allow the Republicans to elect
these two officers and there is every rea-
son to believe that for two years more
Messrs. Herbert and Boyce will continue
in Office. The way by which this
will be done has not been
exercised for years. 1t is customary for
the party having a majority on joint bal
lot to caucus for these two officers and
then the regular course of law is followed
and the men are appointed by
joint resolution of both houses.
The fact of the Senate being Democratic
and the House Republican will prevent
this method. The law says that the
House must appoint these officers with the
concurrence OF the Senate and a Democratic
house is too apt to concur in the appoint
ment of Republicans, and under the law
the present officials hold Office until their
successors are appointed.
