WHYNOEXTRASESSION
1t Would Prevent the Return
of Prosperity.
ONE REASON OF THE PRESIDENT
BESIDES Incoming Congress, which Is
Republican, Would Pass Needed
Tariff Legislation.

Washington, May est is under
stood that Cleveland has said that one
reason that why he will not call con
gress to enact laws to meet the dehcl'
encv is because it would prevent the
return to prosperity which he belleVes
is pending. The president thinks there
would be much financial Legislation
talked of. aud much tariff legislation
suggested which would unsettle bust
ness of all kinds and prevent business
from going forward But more than
all is the desire of the president to see
the present tariff law given longer
test than it could possibly have II con"
press should reassemble. He knows
that the Republican congress Will insist
upon raising the necessary revenue Tor
the government by an increase OF duty
on foreign goods, and he would be
placed i'll most disagreeable position
by refusing his assent to it, and, at the
same time, depriving the treasury OF
the money needed.
1t is now generally talked that an
effort will be made i'll the next congress
to pass IA proposed constitutional
amendment eliminating the direct tax
clause from the constitution, which
would allow an income tax to be lev
led. 1t is very doubtful If such prop
osition can pass congress. 1t would re-
uuire a two-thirds vote III each house
to put the proposed amendment before
the people. Taking the vote III the last
house for example, it is pretty plain
that two thirds of the house could not
be found willing to vote for the amend
ment. The same difficulty would also
be met in the senate. The vote ON the
income tax proposition i'll the senate in
dictated that the necessary two-thirds
was lacking. Besides, after such
proposition had run the gauntlet of a
two-thirdS vote i'll each of the houses OF
congress, it would still have to secure
three-faurths of the states either by
legislatiUn or conventions authorized
for the purpose. There are, or will be,
forty-five states after next December.
Consequently, thirty-four states would
have to ratify the amendment. II
thirteen refused to do SO the amend
ment would fail. 1t is almost sure
there would be that number who would
refuse assent. But the CRATER difficulty
would be in passing the proposed
amendment through congress. 1t
would seem that little attention need
be given that idea for the present,
although there are those who claim
tbat an alaction could he carried on the
issue

RAISED BY HERMANN.
An Important Question Regarding In
dian Schools on Reservations.

Washington, May 2S.-Representa-
tive Hermann, of Oregon has raised a
very important question i'll the interior
department i'll relation to Indian
schools on reservations where allot-
ments in severalty have occurred. He
has presented the right of a state to ex-
tend it's common school system over the
Indians land, with the right to estab-
lish school districts i'll the reservation,
and for the Indian the right to choose
teachers according to the school law,
and to be under the law for taxation
purposes, except as TO the taxation
lands held by allotment only. The In
dian bureau is inclined TO take this
view, and further, to hold that it may
aid such schools from the fund out of
which it already contributes to some
district schools certain sums for each
Indian taught i'll them Mr.. Her
mann has formally presented the mat
ter to the secretary, and it will likely
soon be submitted to the attorney
general, as the department says it is
the first time the question has come i'll
this shape Indians on allotments,
being now citizens, assert their right
TO enjoy common school education.

THE NEW BRIDGE.
Plans and Specifications Now Ready
for InspectiOn.

AT the meeting Of the councils, soon
after the giving way of the Eighth ave-
nue. bridge, a resolution was passed
asking that plans for a new bridge be
prepared by Engineer Frick. Mr.. Frick
has since been working upon them and
yesterday completed the job.
If the plans are adopted by the coun-
ellis, the city will be supplied with a
handsome and serviceable bridge at
that point. The structure will be sixty
three feet in length and forty-eight
feet wide. The roadway will be thirty
feet wide and there will be two side
walks, each nine feet wide. The bridge
will be built entirely of iron and will
have a floor system which will be con-
structed for pave or macadem road.
The bridge will be very strong, the
glrders sustaining 100 pounds to the
square foot, and the whole thing will
be proportioned to hold a lotion roller
with safety.
The cost will probably be in the
neighborhood of 5000.

Isnitcd.

Sunday night at ST. Rose church oc-

and seventeen boys were received into

impressive, but all were finally pro-
nounced members of the sodality. Be
fore the benediction, however, the
flowers on the altar caught fire, and in
an instant were blazing fiercely away.
The people in the seats We're startled
and q great many people started from
their seats. Several men saw what
would happen. should rush be made
for the doors, and called for the peo-
pie to take their seats.
This probably saved many people
from becoming injured. John Moran
and Joseph O'Rourke grabbed the blaZ-
ing flowers and threw them out, burn
ing their clothes badly in the act. If
it had not been for the presence OF
mind and prompt action of the two
lads. the laces and walls would have
been fired, and the results would prob
ably have been much more serious.
