significance Of tine victory would force
itself upon the minds Of the delighted
Liberals

favored both by the temperance and
labor organizations, having declared
himself for an eight hour law, and also
for local option law as to licensing the
sale of intoxicating liquors, and against

of the rent payers for the withdrawal
of license. The Irish vote in the dis
trict, about 500 strong, also voted
solidly for Roby The Conservative

HOW MihSiNAlppl Will encourage manu-
featuring Enterprises.
JACKSON, Miss, Oct. 24-The alli-
ance element of the convention have
scored a notable victory, and its ideas
as to taxation have become engrafted in
the constitution. The issue was pre-
sented by Section Of the report Of the
committee on corporations, which
touches upon the power to tax corpora
tions and provides for an exemption of
five years in favor of certain enter
prises. A number of the ablest men in
the convention advocated an exemption
of ten years as calculated to encourage
the establishment Of manufacturing
and other enterprises necessary to the
development of the state, but tho alli-
ance men succeeded in keeping the ex-
emption to the period stated.
The convention also reconsidered its
action abolishing the office Of lieutenant
governor and reinserted that office in
the constitution.
The convention Thursday resumed
consideration of the report Of the com
mittee on corporations and adopted the
following: Section z: Provision shall
be made by general laws to prevent the
abuse by city, towns and other munich
pal corporations Of their power of taxa
tion, assessment, borrowing money and
contracting debts.

WILL THE TARIFF BILL srANDa
Senators Mcpherson and Carlisle Seem to
Think Not

NEW YORK, Oct. Ex-senator Nc
Pherson very recently wrote as follows
to a member of a prominent importing
house in this city;
Il beg to call your attention to the
conference report and tariff bill sent
you about ten days or two weeks ago-a
quarto pamphlet Of PA pages On page
175 you will find amendment 440 and
Section 3, the reading matter relating
to drawbacks ON tobacco stricken ont.
Turning over to page 1i8, sixth line
from The top you will find the follow
ing: Conference restores Section 80.
Now, in the tariff bill before you
you will find Section 30, that ON and
after the first day of January, etc,
ending with six cents per pound, leav-
ing all the rest of original Section 30
out altogether. This omission is fatal
to the bill, and, in the opinion of emf
nent lawyers here, Senator Carlisle
among them, it vitiates the whole bill
1t is an internal revenue section, but be-
ing part Of the tariff bill passed, it
stands and falls together
In accordance with this discovery a
protest against Collector Erharts Of
fetal action under the Mckinley bill
was forworded Wednesday evening to
the leading importers of the city for sig
nature.
Under the law protests against the
collectors assessments canuot be lodged
until the liquidation Of entry. and must
be lodged within ten days after that
stage in the importers business with
the government
Carlislo's Views
Senator Carlisle, who was one of the
conferees, was asked what in his opin-
ion would be the effect of the omission
Of Section 30 from the tariff bill as
signed by the president
"a have not, lie said, examined the
authorities on the subject. but ii seems
quite clear t0~lne that the omission of
one section is Just as fatal to the bill as
il all but one had ben omitted. II the
president can sign part Of a bill passed
by both houses and make that law, of
course il makes no difference how small
part is
Should the constitutionality of this
law be tested in the courts, tho question
would have 10 be determined by the
journals Of the two houses because
they constitute the only legal evidence
of what was done The two houses
passed the tariff bill, but in different
forms, When it came back from the
conference committee there was moth
ing to act upon except its report, which,
suppose, was entered upon the journal
of both houses rs is usual in such cases.
