WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE senate yes
ter'iay indefinitely postponed the PROPOSE
ton to provide an income tax to pay pen
sions, etc. The ground of postponement
was that it was revenue bill, which
must originate in the house Sherman's
credentials for a sixth term were filed.
The treasury asked for S3S5, 900 for print
ing, the appropriation having become eN-
hausted \ deficiency bill of S}6S, ,0OO, part
~ for the census bureau was, passed The
Bubois-Claggett contest was then debated
until adjournment. ssssnsi
The house used mp the morning hour in
discussion of the bill to amend the inter
state commerce law so a. To permit a cut
rate to "drUmmcrS." without action. Then
Tracey of New York fiiibuStered for an
hour or so TO stave off taking up the Bland
silver bill The motion to reconsider the
vote postponing indefinitely the PROPOSE
tion to appropriate money to carry food to
starving Russians was tabled and the
house adjourned

system was to keep spot sales rs low as
possible. 1t was absurd, he SAID to claim
that the producer did not pay tax on
futures.
Producer to Regulate Prize.
In answer to Moses of Georgia, Macune
said, he did not know whether the price of
cotton WAS regulated in Liverpool, or in
New York. He believed, however, that
when Liverpool wanted cotton the market
was CONFIRMED TO New York and when it
did not want cotton New York was
obliged to conform to Liverpool. Macune
held that the producer should regulate the
price of a commodity. He believed that the
influence Of the future business caused the
low prices this year. j. ii. Brigham,
lecturer of the National Grange, favored
the bill in the name of that organizations
The farmer, he said, asked for no favors
from the national congress. They simply
believed that no man had any right to sell
their productions before they were grown
Brigham condemned future dealing, hold
ing that it was something that was not
necessary.
The Fellow He Wants to Hamstring.
On account of the failure in the crops in
Europe this year everybody thought, he
said, that the American farmer would get
a good price for his crops, but he did not
because the speculator had already Sc
cured his crop.
Plainly, gentlemen" said Brigham,
I'VE want to hamstring the fellow who
wants to sell what he has not got"
Brigham said in conclusion that nine
teen-twentieths of the people of the
country were behind the measure.
Mr.. Roam, of the National Grange. made
a brief argument against the bill. He said
that what the farmers objected to was
the sale of products not owned by the
seller, and which controlled the price of
the farmers products. The increase of
population, he said had been greater than
that of wheat

the lives of the miners in the
