a MOST woNDERFUL DISCOVERY.

National banks may recover easily
from all effects of the panic, the with
drawal of deposits, the dullness of the
times and any other disasters that may
have effected them financially. That
lis, if the notion of the great depository
of all wisdom on the money question
lis correct and they win adopt it.
Its theory is that the national banks
make a tremendous percentage" OF
profit in fact draw as much interest
annually as they do from their custom
crs.'' by the destruction of their cur
.rency bills through fire, by rats and by
shipwreck and many other ways
Now that is a remarkable discovery.
1T is worthy to be ranked with the
philosophers stone" the squaring of
the circle, perpetual motion and other
wonderful developments Of science or
whatever they may be called. A re-
ward ought to be given by the national
government for it. Or rather the ma
tional banks ought to subscribe and
make up a silken purse-need not
make it out of a sow's ear either-for
the astounding geniass of the Rocky
Mountains who has pointed out this
new way by which they can get rich.
on this plan if they can issue lots
o. currency bills. get some one to burn
them, feed them to the rats, or put
them on board an old craft and sink
them. they will make just the amount
that are thus destroyed or are dis
posed of in other ways. This it is
true, is sort Of paradox. 1t may
seem strange that the more of such
paper money is destroyed the more
profits they will make and the richer
they will become. But coming from
such reliable source, of course there
cannot be any mistake about it.
And we warn all persons and papers
that attempt to dispute the great
financial authority which has promuI-
gated this theory, that they will be in
danger Of denunciation az scrubs, !"

farmer who sailed under the honorable name
of Miller. OF course you all know that in
Arkansas it is against the law of the Com
m0nwealth to use dynamite in the public
waters Well, to hurry through the statement
of the case, lot of Us came to the conclusion
that if We wanted TO make big haul of fish 10
would be necessary to use q little force. Ac-
cordingly dynamite bombs were secured, and
we asked Miller 10 20 up stream and throw the
dombs in while We his guests, would gather at
a ford few rods down and secure the floating
fish. Miller accompanied by highly -educated
water-spaniel, went up the bank and prepared
for his attack upon the deniZens of the water.
He hurled one missile, fuse attached into the
stream. An instant later his dog was in the
water, and in moment he had the bomb in
his mouth swimming for the shore.
"'Drap it, Tige!' shouted the farmer. 'Drap
it, sayl'
But the dog would not obey. He swan
wildly forward and in 20 seconds had landed.
Miller started to run. the dog coming after h M

fishermen below. They realized the situation
in an instant, and eveing their guns warned
the farmer TO head in another direction. The
situation for all its seriousness, was the funni-

hill, yelling at the dog to 20 back.

Mr.. Reed me, r., in closing the debate
on this paragraph, said the proposition to in

Mr.. Anderson modified an amendment offered

In the Senate, the time was chiefly taken up
by Mr.. Allen tkeb.) in speech intended to
demonstrate that Secretary Carlisle has no legal
authority TO issue any more bonds.
Mr.. Aliens argument was In line with that
already made by Mr. PETER and Mr.. Stewart.
Mr. Chandler continued his speech against
the repeal of the laws intended to secure the
purity of the ballot-bOxes.
Senator Squire WASH presented resolutions
of the Chamber of Commerce of Seattle. Wash,
protesting against the placing of coal and
lumber on the free list. He stated that there
were 10000 men in the State of Washington
dependent upon the coal industry for employ
ment, and that numbering was one of the great
est industries of the State.
In presenting a petition of Kansas citizens
against the Wilson bill, Senator PETER gave an
indication that he WAS not favorable to that
measure These petitions" said he, give q
very good reason for opposing the bill that is
In favor Of the manufacturers and against the
farmers"
At 3 o'clock Senator Mcmillan was recog-
nized 10 call up a resolution commemorative of
the services of the late Hon. J. Logan Chapman,
member of the House of Representatives from
the State Of Michigan. Senator Mcmillan de-.
livered an euogy upon Mr.. Chipman's charac-

| In the House, the fact that tho income tax
bill bad been reported 10 the House created an
interest and expectancy that Overshadowed the

II was evident from the beginning that the
New York contingent was fighting against
heavy odds. Gen. Sickles Mr.. Hendrix. Dir.
Tracy, and Dir. Lock wood all took turns in de-
| nouncing the income tax as nn-Democratic and

In the Senate, that body refused, by party
vote Of yeas 90, nays %. to postpone until De-
cember next the consideration of the bill to re-
peal the laws providing for the purity Of the
| ballot boxes.
Having failed to get the matter postponed,
Mr.. Chandler proceeded with his speech on the
subject. He put Mr. Bate (Tenn., d. in very
| uncomfortable hole, so to speak. The Ten
nessee Senator declared that there was no need
of Federal statute, as the elections weTe
honestly conducted under the State laws.
Mr.. Chandler quoted from Democratic news
paper in Memphis, Tenn, an interview with
Mr.. Bate, printed not long ago, in which the
Tennessee Senator declared that the elections
in that State had been characterized by frauds,
ballot-box stuffing, and about all the crimes
charged against the State laws by the Repub-
1icans.
In tho House, the pending amendment at the
opening was upon fixing Oct. l as the date on
which the doll-and-tOy schedule should 20 into
effect
Mr.. Lockwood IN. Y, d. offered an amend
ment to this amendment to increase the duty
from 25 to 35 per cent. ad valorem. He ex-
planned that he offered it in the interest OF
S1,000000 revenue and of the thousands OF
women and children who were employed in
making toys. Mr.. Lock woods amendment was
lost and the Wilson amendment was agreed to.

reduce the duty on precious stones cut, but not
set, from Is to 10 per cent. ad valorem.
Mr. Cummings said he would address himself
to the influences at work behind the diamond
schedule.
In the first draft of the BILL he said, the Ways
and Means Committee at the instance of the
Diamond Cutters Union at New York had
placed the duty on the uncut diamonds at 10
per cent. After this rate had been agreed to q
committee Of importers had come here and had
asked the committee to reduce that duty to 10
per cent.
He desired to show the House how that re-
duction had been accomplished, and he had
read some letters and kilograms which passed
between Mr.. Hodenpylo Chairman of the Dia-
mond Importers Committee. and Mr.. Bourke
Cochran, the Democratic member of the Ways
and Means Committee from New York, in
which Mr.. Cochran said that the presence of
Mr. Hodenpyle would not be necessary here to
secure the reduction.
Mr.. Cummings declared further that when
the diamond workers were here he went to Mr..
Cochran, and the latter had promised to stand
by him. He was astonished he said. to find
that any Democrat of the Ways and Means
Committee should desire to lower taxes on
Injuries instead of the necessarics of life.
When the diamond workers asked Is per
cent and the importers 10 Democratic Con-
gress should listen to the voice of the poor and
not the rich.
Mr.. Cochran got recognition to reply to Mr..
Cummings. He did not, he said, think it
necessary to offer any explanation of the cor
respoudence that had been read. It's character
justified him. The committee had looked alone
to the question Ofrevenue. The testimony of the
treasury experts, as we'll az importers, had been
