FINANCIAL CRISIS IN OHIO.
Republican Party Has Bnnkrupted the
Treasury-Must Make Lcau

COLUMBUS, April 13.-Representa-
tive Doty, Chairman of the Finance
Committee of the Ohio House of
Representatives, has introduced bill
to permit the issue of 5000, 600 in GER
tificates of Indebtedness. In present
ing the bill he said the State had for
years exceeded her receipts, and the
income for the present year was now
virtually mortgaged for $500, 000.
Money must be raised by May t.
meet the obligations of the State, and
an issue of bonds was the only means
Of delivcrance.
This was a confession that Republ-
can extravaganza and incapability
had virtually bankrupted the State
Treasury. Of the $500,0 900 in deficien-
cies, $3.50, GOO was incurred by the last
Republican General Assembly. The
Republican officials are busy fixing uD
statement, by which they intend to
try to show that this crisis has been
coming on for nine years, under both
Democratic and Republican admins
tratiOnS, but in face of the fact that
two-thirds of the deficit is chargeable
to the last monopoly" Legislature,
with its twO-thirds Republican ma
jority, this attempt must be futile.

INCOME TAX In SENATE.
MORE THAN A DOZEN REPUFLI
CANS WILL VOTE FOR IT.
Republican Senator Sa That
tho Tax W ill Become a Law.

RcpubTi lean Senator Sa s That
tho Tax W ill Become a Law.
WASHINGTON, April 13-A new
aud important turn has been given to
the contest in the Senate over the
Wilson Tariff bill by the discovery
that not less than a dozen Republi-
can Senators are determined to vote
for the income tax proposition This
information comes as a complete sur
prise to both sides Of the Chamber,
who have been making estimates of
the strength of the income tax pTopO-
silion, based On the almost solid op-
position of the Republicans. 1t is
learned, however, in an official way
THAT nearly, if net quite all Of the So
called silver Republican senators and
possibly two or three more who have
never voted for free silver, will join
the friends of the income tax PROPOSE
tiOn and vote TO retain it in the bill.
This, of course, adds a new feature
to the situation and necessitates a re-
arrangement of all estimates as to
the strength Of the income tax prop0-
sition. The thirteen silver Republi-
cans who will probably vote for it are
Senators Carey, Dolph, Dubois, Hans
brough. Jones of Nevada, Mitchell Of
Oregon, Pcttigrew, Power. Shoup,
Squire, Stewart, Teller and Wolcott.
Some doubt attaches to the attitude
of two or three of the Senators above
named, especially Messrs. Carey and
Squire, hui the doubt as to their
votes is offset by the knowledge that
other Republican Senators than those
above mentioned may add their names
t. the income tax column. Mr.. Alli-
son. Of Iowa, for instance, who is re-
garded by his colleagues as the most
Republican in the list of possibilities,
and Mr.. Hale, Of Maine, are mention
ed among those inclined to swim
with the POpulistic current and vote
for the income tax. AS to the atti-
tude OF most of the silver Republicans
there is no doubt. They do not deny
that they will vote to retain the
income tax proposition in the Tariff
bill.
According to n conservative esti-
mate made by Republican Senator
who knows the situation, there are
about eight Democratic Senators who
osition. These are MesSrs. Hill, Muir
ply, Brice, German, Smith, McPher-
son, Camden and Gibson. Their
votes, added to the twenty-five on the
Republican side Of the, Chamber,
would give the opponents of the tax
only thirty-three votes, leaving its
friends with tifty-two votes, composed
Of thirty-six Democrats, thirteen Re
publicaus and three Populists.

m1rkabIe Invention.
LEXINGTON, KY, April 12.-Charles
c. Moore, editor of the Blue Grass
Blade, a prohibition-infidel paper, who
is under Indictment for blasphemy
and maintaining a nuisance, came in
to the city court today and gave him
self up
lie refused to give bond and was
sent to jail, from where he will issue
his paper, as he did when imprisoned
at Paris, KY, d year Or SO ago at the
instance Of the members of the Chris
tain Church, who prosecuted him for
his attacks upon the pastor of the
church and other members.
an attorney gives it as his opinion
that since in the nuisance Indictment
it is stated that if he 'habi0ually aud
continually" publishes in his paper
blasphemouS articles an Injunction
will be got out to prevent him from
issuing the paper.
His newSdealer several days ago no
titled Editor Moore that he would no
longer handle the paper, and since
then it has been sold by newsboys not
employed by the dealers. The in
dictment for blasphemy, if tried, will
be the first in Kentucky. Moore, it is
said, urged the finding of the blasphe-
my Indictment, but was somewhat as
tonished by the nuisance count.
