THE SICILlAN TUMULT
Brough, About by an Organizing Committee
Ten More Rioters Killed by Iroops.

ROME, Jan. 6.-rhe decree procaiming
Sicily in state of siege is prefaced by re-
port OF the ministers to the king. which
says that the deplorable neglect and
growing evils Of recent years have led to
serious situation requiring exceptional
treatment. The ignorant and deluded
populists, led by individuals addicted TO
every kind of crime, have fomented pill
lage, incendiarism, murder and rapine.
II is evident that an organizing COM
mittee exists which IL responsible for the
disorders which have occurred, and
which is abusing the constitutional guar
antees. The committee, it Is stated, meets
daily at Palermo.
A dispatch from Caltinestta says that
there was demonstration there last even
ing under the auspices Of the Fasci de
Layatori which wound up in conflict
between the troops and the peasants One
OF the soldiers was wounded by peasant,
and when this was learned the troops
fired volley into the crowd of rioters
and killed 10 and wounded several others.
Private dispatches from all parts If
Sicily say that the proclamation OF a
state OF siege has produced feeling of
greater confidence among the people.
General Nora di Lavrian has issued
decree forbidding the assemblage even Of
unarmed people under pain of arrest

The DUTY or The HOUR.

The duty OF every Democratic Congress-
man at the present time is not only in
Washington, but actually In his seat in
the House OF Congress. While the country
is full OF idle workshops, or OF others on
reduced time, and the excuse OF the
owners for this state OF affairs is the un-
certainty OF what the new tariff is to be,
il Is doubly plain that every Democrat
should be at his post and not allow any
more time to be wasted, as the past three
days were, by the obstructive tactics OF
the Republicans.
The Democrats haye an ample majority,
and even II there is some odd member OF
the party who cannot vote for the new
bill In its entirety, his place is on the
floor otthe House, and not in any other
place, while Congress is in session.
The Republicans are purposely refrain
ing from voting IN order to compel
Speaker Crisp to count quorum to vim
dicate the tactics OF ex-CNAs Reed. This
IS, of course, in direct opposition to the
policy Of the Democratic party and should
not be resorted to.

There will undoubtedly be general sat

favorably the bill for the extension OF the
service OF the life saving corps on the
Atlantic coast. Heretofore the service
covered only period OF eight months in
the year or from Sept to May 1. Under
this law, II carried out, it will be EXTENDED
two months, from Aug. to June I. It
would be better still to make ~ the entire

The imposition OF an income tax is in
great many cases the same as putting
fine on industry and thrift. II would be
far better to put heavy assessment upon

return receive a portion OF IL for the pro-
lection given. In this way some portion

INCOME TAX DISCUSSION.

The popular discussion OF the income
tax measure is hot, and the objections TO
IL are so numerous and spirited that they
have already caused a feeling for revision
at Washington before the clause goes to
Congress for debate. The inquisitorlal
feature OF the tax is doubtless its worst
one, and the feeling that 1t is un-Ameri-
can and dictatorial, putting premium on
prevarication and introducing the class
system into taxation is well nigh univer-
sal.
