In oil' which Senator Higgins admitted

as gracefully as bul, frog into deep and

warrant for protective tariff. Senator
Allen asked:
Is there any power in this government
TO levy tax for a dlstlnotively protec.

Mr. Higgins Tho answer to that
would be IN my conception very iuter
esting one II IL we're given in its fullness
and by some master OF the subject. II
the Senator will allow me a moment in
answer 10 his question / will state my
opinion that one OF the chief reasons and
objects for the adoption OF our present
/ Constitution as a substitution for the
/ Articles OF Confederation was that the
Articles OF Confederation gave no
power to tax TO the ultimates, OF
no power to tax at all The In

On TO Srassillon.

TOLEDO, May 21.-Sullivan's wing Of
Rondall's division Of the industrial army
held an enthusiastic mass meeting on the
public market and enlisted Is recruits,
who left with the army this morning.
During their four days stay here the com
monwealers were royalty treated, especial
ly after the smallpox canard to get them
out of the city was exploded. The com
monwealers go from here to Cleveland and
from there to Massillon, Coxey's starting
point. The army is composed almost en-.
tirely Of trade unionists, and Lieutenant
Macauley, second in command, claims te
be the originator of the knights of Labor
and is the oldest past grand master work
man Of that body.

this question: Suppose that a protective
tariff. 50 called, which Is merely an act
that robs the market OF its natural ele-
ment of competition, would be direct
benefit 70. say. only 0OO 600 persons,
which / think is In excess of the number
that fwould be directly benehte d by ~
would the Senator claim that that would
come within the general welfare cliuse
Of the Constitutions
Mr. Higgins-Yes; ] should think 1t
would
Mr. Allen-That is, out OF 10000, 600
people, relatively speaking, you would
have power under the general-welfare
clause Of the Constitution TO levy q tax
for the benefit Of 5000 900 Of them, and
take the money out Of the pockets Of the
other o., 600 0002
Mr. Higgins-Ob, that Is another mat
ter do not choose TO 60 into q specu-
lative proposition such as the Senator
presents. The proposition | contend for
is that the help to 5000 900 of people
does not hurt the remaining portion OF
the $4,000 600 people of the United
States, but it benefits them also.
That was evidently too practical, too
concrete; the Senator preferred to get
back to the "oehre" business; for which,
by the way, he did show the necessity
for protecting. He could not show how
many people were benefited and how
much they were benefited ne did show,
however, that we have been protecting
"ochre' business for many years.

SOLID TARIFF WORK.

This Wosk.


WAgasGr0x. May 2l.-rhe senate bagcr
the seventh week Of the di .cussion Of the
tariff bill to4ny at 10 O'Clock by taking up
the metal schedule, and the prospect now
is that the entire week viii be devoted Ia
the tariff without attempting amy Other
business than tha, which can be done in
the frat half hour Of the daily sessions,
and possibly an occasional brief executive
session after @ o'clock for the disposition
Of uncontcsted nominations.
Senator Harris reailirmed his intention
Of pressing the bill forward as rapidly a.
1t may be possible to do so, but he said he
had no idea OF any attempt TO extend the
daily sessions beyond 6 o'clock SO long as
the work shoald go on as satisfactorily a.
it is going at present.
lie expressed the opinion that the Re
publican senators who have been opposing
the bill and apparently seeking TO delay its
passage had decided to change their pol
icy and to let the bill proceed upon its pas
sage after giving the various items of diff
ference the attention demanded by theiI
merits, and he instanced the fact, noticea.
BILE on Friday and Saturday, that there
had been decided cessation Of long
speeches and Of roll calls as well.
This change in the course of those oppo-
nents of the bill who have sought to put
obstacles in the way Of its progress the
Democrats ats butte to the two facts that
their opponents have discovered chat they
mean to pass the bill, and that the Repub-
lican conferences of the past week have
developed divided sentiment in the Re
publican party on the question of delay,
with, as they think, a majority opposed tc
all dilatory tactics.
Senator Aldrich expresses the opinion
that the week will be spent upon the meta
and woolen schedules, and he says the dis
cussion will 20 on much as it has during
the past week that the Republicans vii
allow some Of the items Of the bill to q
unchanged aad they will ask eXplana
tions and give their opinions of change
made in others

the consideration Of the schedules was be
gun, was expected to be in his seat today

Democrats Elated.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL, Oct. L.
James A. Crawford, State Presi
dent of the United Mine Workers
Of America, the Populist nominee
in this, the 18th district for Con-
gress, has signed contract to
work for M. c. Keefe, Of Pitts
burg, manager of Willard Coal &
Rock Drill Company of Chicago,
beginning October 10Th. The
terms of the contract are that
Crawford shall resign his posi-
ton as State President Of the
United Mine Workers of America,
and also resign as candidate Of
the Populist party for Congress.
This is d bomb shell in the ranks
of the Republicans of the dis
trict, who have been expecting
help from Crawford's candidacy
for their candidate, Major James
A. Connolly. The Democrats are
correspondingly elated and assert
with confidence that Crawford S
withdrawal assures the return of
VIM. NJ. Springer to his seat ia
the national Legislature.
It will De impossible for the
Populists to bring forth candi-
date to take Crawford's place, as
the time for filing nomination
papers with the Secretary OF
State closes at midnight of the
sixth.

Victims of the Storm.

JACKSONVILLE, FLA, October
A special from Key West
says that fifty dead bodies, vic
tins of the wrecks occurring on
the reefs during the recent
storm, have been washed ashore
on the islands. The dead are
evidently sailors from the yes
sells destroyed, although the
length Of time which has elapsed
since the storm has rendered the
bodies unidentifiable through de
composition. The probabilities
are that many more of these
ghastly evidences of the hurri-
canes fury will be brought to
light in a few days.

The Baltimore SIN gives the
popular peanut this editorial en-
brace:
According to the United States
consul atMarseilles, the democrat
ic and popular peanut, which
cheers but does not inebriate, per-
forms quite a number of valuable
roles i'll thrifty and ingenious
France. 1.-The best nuts. he says,
yield about fifty per cent. Of oil
in weightat the first crushing, and
from twelve to thirteen at the
second. The oil is worth in
Marseilles from nearly 50 to over
SIS per quintal This oil is
largely devoted to the lnanufac-
ture of white soap. It is also
used as food, principally, how
ever, on salads and as one of the
constituents of margarine. A
third use of the oil is for illumi-
mating purposes. 1t is reported
to be a very good illuminating
fluid. The crushed meal is used
as food for stock and also for
fertilizing. The shells alone have
| no market value"
About 800, 100000 pounds of
peanuts imported into France
last year from India, Argen
tina and South Africa, They
sold in the Marseilles market for
from 50 90 to S6. 81 per quintal of
2264 pounds. The peanut does
