HILL ON INCOME TAX
He Will Not Follow a Spurious
Democracy:
A BATCH OF NOMINATIONS
Proposed Advance in Freight Rates.
A. 0. U. w. Grand Lodge
at Portland.
A BATCH OF NOMINATIONS
Associated Press.

washington, June 21.-There was a
fairly good attendance in the galleries
in anticipation of the opening OF the
income tax debate when Vice President
Stevenson called the senate to order to-
day. Bills were passed as follows;
To authorize a commission to draft
code of laws for the district of Alaska;
to promote efficiency in the navy ana
to define the boundaries of the three
judicial districts in Alaska and to regu-
late the jurisdiction Of the United States
court therein. AS soon as the clerk read
the first section of the income tax pro-
visions of the tariff bill, Hill, who as
sumed the leadership Of the opposition
to those provisions, delivered a care
fully prepared argument.
He contended that 1t would have been
good politics to have avoided this un-
necessary issue. The most disastrous
defeat ever experienced by the Demo-
cratic party in Oregon was the result of
the effort to substitute new-fangled
Populist principles for the good old
principles of true Democracy. If this is
the best leadership we can present In
this great crisis" said he, 81, for one,
must decline to follow It, I repudiate
the spurious Democracy Of the modern
apostles and prophets of the party who
are part Mugwumps and part Popu-
lists"
The imposition of the income tax, Hill
said, would drive New York, New Jer-
sey and Connecticut into the Repub-
lican column, there to remain.
At $40 the senate began voting on the
first amendment to the income tax, fix
ing the date when 1t shall cease. The
date was fixed as proposed in the
amendments, retaining the income tax
until January 1, 1900, by vote Of 80 to
21, Teller, Dubois and Mitchell, of Ore
gon, Republicans, voting with the DEM
ocrats.

EXCLUSIVE FOR INCLUSIVE"

officials of the navy department have
found a curious typographical error in
the Behring sea law recently passed by
congress, and are now wondering what
its effect may be. 1t is feared that 1t
may invalldate the whole law. The
award of the Paris tribunal prohibited
the capture of seals at all times within
a zone of 60 miles around the Prlbyloff
islands, inclusive" of the territorial
waters. The bill, as introduced by Mr..
Morgan, chairman Of the senate COM
mittee on foreign relations, contained
the correct phraseology, but when 1t was
printed the types made the word ''ex-
elusive" and the bill was 50 passed.
What the legal effect Of the error may
be still remains to be seen, but some
people think that the senate will have
to reconsider It's work and pass the bill
again formally before It will be properly
operative. There is a good deal OF red
tape about legal matters.

diction that the water would be off

has failed to materialize. The ragged

Notwithstanding the optimistic pre-
dictions of DR.. Wheeler, the city ply
scian, of smallpox fame, there is a
general sentiment in the community
that Portland, with the approach of
warm weather that is now very nearly
due, will soon become breeding ground
for the dissemination of various epi-
demic diseases, and it is indeed hard,
after making a careful survey Of the
northern end of the city, to agree with
that gentlemans deductions that no
danger is to be feared. Three medical
men that l visited today were all very
firm in their opinion about one phase
Of this subject. 1t is that the accumu-
lations of filth which have been gath
cred in the cellars of hundreds of old
buildings for 10 or 20 years will, under
the influence of heat, be many times
more menacing to the public safety
than the more recently deposited gar
bage. The poisonous gases that will be
generated from the former will far out
weigh in their effects those of any other
kind of offal. Let the readers of The
Astorian imagine an area of ten blocks
by about eight 1--WE will leave out all
that part of the flooded district lying up
town. filled with structures that have
been the home of Cinnamon, the poor
est classes of white people, and the low
est forms of humanity generally, for the
past 20 years, and let them realize, If
they can, the result Of a sudden and
powerful stirring up Of these places by
the entrance Of large body Of water,
that dissemenates everything over the
sidewalks, leaving it to rot and to fes-
ter in the warm MONDAY sun.
