IOWA PROHIBITION.
Cold Water People Renewing Ac-
tivity.

Dies MONIES, To-, Dec. 10. - The
prohibition in this state is a matter of
concern with politicians and people at
the present time, and meeting of the
executive committee of the state tenn
perance alliance was held today. The
result of the meeting is an issuance OF
an address to the people of the state of
Iowa, declaring their loyalty to prohibit
ton and expressing belief that the cleo
ton was not reputation of prohibit
ton.
The address says that the Republican
members of the general assembly can
not go back on the platform on which
they were elc tied; and also asserts that
all votes against BOieS were prohibition
votes, and that therefore the majority
of the state is for prohibition. The adj
dress further says that prohibition has
been source of strength TO the Repub-
lican party, and expresses the belief
that the constitutional amendment of
1882 was legally adopted, and further
that the supreme court will finally so
declare. The address closes by urging
all temperance people TO renewed ac-
tivity for the enforcement of the laws.
The state grange, which has been in
session here three days, adjourned to-
night after adopting anti-monOpolv
resolutions and agreeing that the way
to control the liquor traffic is by the
United States government taking it in
charge and running it as postOfficeS are
now managed.

These subcommittee could go on dur
ing the session and also during the re-
cess. Their inquiries should not be con-
dneted with spirit of hostility toward
the manufacturers, bnt with a view TO
ascertain the bottom facts and ascertain
in each case what, if any degree of pro-
lection is needed, as l have a suspicion
that frequently it is represented that
they need great deal more protection
than is really the case.
at should be ascertained what is the
labor cost on things produced, the wages
paid, whether the work be steady or
not. the profits on actual capital and
notion ''watered" stock, the relative cost
of production here and abroad, whether
there are tacit or direct agreements TO
limit production, and much more in
formation of practical character. This
information is not now to be had. The
party could then fight the Mckinley
bill, and if we win in the elections this
information wOuldeDable us TO form
tariff bill adapted to the cOuntry's needs
and one that could become q law, and
We will pass it in the Fifty-third con-
gress. If we fail in the elections, then
the information has been obtained and
we can keep on until the country is ed
ucated against the Mckinley bill"

SPRINGER'S IDEA.
The Hlinoisan Outlines a Policy
on the Tariff.

The IIlinoisan Outlines a Policy
on the Tariff.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 10.-Mr. Spring
er, of Illinois, who is likely to be chair
man of the ways and means committee,
if Mr.. Mills should be offered and de-
cline the honor, said today that his
policy with reference to the tariff was
to provide for free wool, free salt. free
lumber. free cotton ties. free coal and
free binding twine. He said:
Il do not think we should attempt
general revision of the tariff at this
time. We should offer the country relief
by passing bills for putting articles
named on the free list and sending
them to the senate. A general tariff
bill cannot be enacted into law and
would keep congress here until October.
l think there should be appointed
strong committee on manufactures, with
able investigators on it. 1t should con-
SiSt of fifteen members. ten Democrats
and five Republicans. This would
make five subcommittee of three each.
They should divide the work, one in
vestigating textile. industries, another
iron production, another glassware and
pottery, and so on.
This committee would be sort of ad-
junct to the ways and means committee,
which could go on with its work and
then subsequently get all the testi-
mony without long list of hearings.

BUTTE, Mont. Dec. 1O.-As the most
effectual method of lessening the smoke
which infests this city, the city council
year ago passed an ordinance prohib-
iting the smelling companies from roast
ing ore in heaps, that causing most OF
the smoke. The ordinance was to go
into effect IN nine months, giving ample
time for the companies to put up kilns
and stacks. The ordinance went into
effect three months ago, and the heap
roasting was stopped, so that Butte has
been comparatively free from smoke
this fall. Yesterday;the Boston q Mon
tana started up five mammoth heap
roasts on the grounds that it was abso-
lntely necessary to do this or suspend
operations. Last night and this morn
ing the city was filled with stirling
smoke. Three employees of the Boston

arrest today for violation of the smoke
ordinance. An injunction was obtained
from the district court restraining the
company from heap roasting. The
heaps are burning, however, and it will

Harsh Treatment of Hebrews to

Harsh Treatment of Hebrews to
Be Considered for Action.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-One OF the
first subjects to occupy the attention of
the foreign affairs committee after the
organization of the committees of the
house by Speaker Crisp will be that Of
the harsh treatment of Hebrews by
Russia. This question will be earnestly
pressed upon the attention of the COM
mittee, and it will be urged to go as far
as possible in expressing its sympathy
with the Russian Hebrews in their dis
tress. and TO take such measures con-
sOnant with the uSageS of diplomacy as
VIII tend to secure an ameliOratiOn of
their condition. This government will
be asked to continue the use of its good
offices as an microscopy with the car
in behalf Of the Hebrews.
The president in his message devoted
some space to the question of the whole
sale Punishment of Jews from Russia,
and to the endeavOrs which this gov
eminent had thus far put forth in their
behalf. The subject will be brought to
the attention of the committee prob
ably by the introduction of a formal
resolution, but the customary distribu-
ton of the various portions OF the
presidents message will bring the mat
ter before the committee in the abSence
of any resolution whatever.
Representative Rayner, of Maryland,
who was one Of the more prominent of
the new members of the house in the
tiftieth congress, said this morning that
he should not seek the craftsmanship Of
any committee. but that he earnestly
desired position as a member of the
foreign affairs committee. He took a
deep interest in the question of the
Russian treatment of the Hebrews, and
wished TO be in a position where he
could do the most effective work. He
did not think his congressional expert
ence entitled him to a craftsmanship
when there were older members in his
state congressional delegation. and he
would be content with his two COM
mittee assignments in the fiftieth con-
greSS, namely, places on the foreign af-
fairs and commerce committees.
