Tho national debt has been increased

present fiscal year to date. This is the
result of failing revenues caused first by

the tariff bill during the Fifty third

created the Cleveland administration

Writes the Editor of the Estate
Journal
About the Latest Heartless
Horror of Gotham.
AHARMLESS WORKMAN
Shot From Roof By the
Militia,
And ''The Law" Says It Is All
Right.

In private letter written by Gov ST.
John to the editor of this paper. he refers
to the outrageous killing of Thomas Car
ney, workingman, by the New York
militia, during the Brooklyn strike, and
the Infamous coroner's verdict, just rem
dered. Gov. St John says in part:
Believing you to be lover of justice
and right, [ enclose a report just clipped
from today's Evening World of the muir
der by the dude militia of poor Carney,
hard working mechanic, repair
ing roof. l say murder, because there
was absolutely no excuse whatever for
shooting him.
The case ought to arouse the whole
nation, but it won't. Monopoly has the
country so firmly by the throat that labor
has no show whatever, while the average
plutocratic miiitiaman thinks it fun to
shoot down one of the common herd"
Won't you through the columns of the
JOURNAL condemn this outrage? If you
could have been here and watched the
Brooklyn strike from the beginning as l
have you would agree with me in saying q
that no more cruel and unjust tyranny
was ever practiced upon laboring men,
than that practiced by those heartless
trolley corporations on their employ es.
You don't get half the truth out west
Everything here is under the iron heel
of capital and the common people"
have no more show for justice than a cat
has in hades without claws.
I am in the midst of daily cruelties and
wrongs that make my blood fairly boil

TO WASTE MORE MONEY.

Removing the Reform School to Hutchin-
son When the State Already Has One Here.
Superintendent Hitchcock, of the state
reform school, said to STATE JOURNAL
reporter this afternoon that the faiiurc
of the bills making appropriations
for work shops and additional land
for the roform school TO pass the
house is owing to scheme by which it
is proposed to move the reform school
from Topeka to Hutchinson.
Chairman Rogers of the senate ways
and means committee Is in favor of such
a move and gave that as his reason for
opposing the appropriation for addition
al land and work shops
1t is said, the western schemers propose
to get an appropriation through this ses-
sion for the completion of the Hutchin-
son reformatory buildings and at the
next session the removal of the reform
school may be an easy matter
The people of the state will not ba
able to understand why it is necessary to
expend a lot of money (about 500, ,O00)
to complete the Hutchinson reformatory
for such purpose when the buildings
here are in firstclass shape and so well
adapted for the institution
1t looks like an idle and foolish vase

Congressman Frederick Working Har
for His Anti-LOttery Bill.

Congressman BrOderick Working Hard
for His Anti-Lottery Bill.
WASHINGTON, Feb. Representative
Broderick stated today that Speaker
Crisp had it in his power to either pass
or defeat the anti-lottery bill During
the last six days of the session the
speaker could recognize any one he might
desire on any bill pending in the
house. That being the case Mr.. Brode-
rick spent some time with the speaker
today insisting that he give some one
recognition on the bill.
Mr.. Broderick insisted that the people
of the west were very much interested
in the matter, and while the lottery peo-
pie have much influence on the floor,
and have an alert lobby on hand, he be-
iieved that there was little doubt but the
bill would pass if it was allowed to como
up. The speaker would make no prom
ises for recognition, and this fact has a
tendency to make those interested il the
bill feel very uncomfortable.

HELP FOR THE NEGROES.

Interesting Facts Brought Out at the
Tuskagee, Ala, Conference.
TUsKAGEE, Ala, Feb 21-The fourth
annual session of the Tuskagee Negro
conference attracted to the Tuskagee in-
stitute today 500 representatives of the
common masses, mainly farmers, and
many northern people engaged in school
work in the south.
The Gulf states as we'll as North
and South Carolina were represented.
The conference resolved to confine its
attention to the acquisition of property,
education and character that lie within
the power of the negro and themselves
to meet.
The most interesting and encouraging
feature of the conference was the re-

engaged at his work of putting on roof

jury justified it Notwithstanding that
witnesses testified that Carney was
rioter and was merely performing g
his work as a laborer. The following is
count of the hearing before the coro-
ner:
James Fox of 1914 Sackett street, swore
he Witnessed the shooting of Carney.

stopping position. with something in his

They ripped my clothing with their bay

SENATOR'S ACT.

They Take Up the Gardenhire Anti-Pass
Bill and Will Pass 1t.
The Gardenhire anti-pass bill is not
dead. Although killed in the house it
has been resurrected. The bill was pub
lished in full in the STATE JOURNAL
early in the session, and this afternoon
several copies of that issue of the JOUR-
NAL were secured by senators, and the
bill was introduced into the senate this
afternoon by Senator Shearer of Mar
shall county. The Gardenhire bill (now
the Shearer billy has many admirers in the
senate. By a suspension of the rules the
bill was read twice aud referred to the
committee on railroads. The bill will
pass the senate without delay and with
practical unanimity. With the sanction
and support of the senate the friends of
anti pass movement hope that the house
of representatives may repent and pass
good, conservative bill for once with
total disregard of the railroad lobby.

measure received majority, but not the
necessary two-thirds to pass il.
In opposing this resolution Senator
Leedy said: "The people are unanimous
in condemnation of passes, but think this
resolution is unsatisfactory. The Garden
hire bill to publish all the passes Issued,
is the best have seen.' Senator Leedy
declared the New York anti pass provis-
ion imperative, because passes were, IS
sued and used secretly.
Senator Brown replied: 81 think l
have studied the new New York consti-
tuition as carefully as the gentleman from
Cofey county. You can't make it a
crime TO give liquor away, and you
can't make it crime to give
the penalty on the one who receives
them. He talks of the Gardenhire bill
Doesn't he know the bill was killed ia
the house and is now sleeping the sleep
that knows no awakening? This senate
has passed the Dumbauld bill making
the issuance of passes compulsory in
some cases, aud then we passed the jun
per bill to prevent the Issuance of any
passes. We are in conflicting position
regarding passes, and we ought to pass
this resolution"
Senator McTaggart asked Senator
Brown if he rode on pass. Brown re-
piled, "Yes, | do, and SO do you"
Senator Leedy said. II paid three cents
mile to come here. and expect to pay
the same when l go back home. 1t is
easy to remedy this matter by refusing
to accept passes"
Senator Thacher called attention to the
fact that if the resolution was success :
ful 1t might prevent legislator from re-
ceiving Christmas gift from his chill
dren or relatives.
Senator Leedy spoke again and said,
"a pass is issued with the expectation
that the railroad will get an equivalent
some day in some way"
Senator Brown said, at is true my
friends killed the Gardenhire bill in the
house, but l have no sympathy or moth
ing in common with the influence that
killed it. there are no eggs in a last
years birds nest and there is nothing in
a defunct house bill, although l would
gladly vote for it. l want to say now, if
all reports are true, that liquor is being
given away within the shadow of this
capitol for the same purpose that passes
are given. If we pass this bill we will
have sure foundation to stand on

ST. JOINS. N. F.. Feb 2L--The desti-

seven thousand persons are regularly re-

pose are becoming scarce and there is
another month of real hardship be
fore the poor. The Herald by a

poor, but this has now been withdrawn.
This money was given to the clerical re-

STATE HORSE DOCTOR GOES.

Senate Passes the Bill AboIishing tho
State Veterinary Surgeon.
Senator Leedy's substitute to his OWL
bill, abolishing the office of state veter-
mary surgeon, passed the senate this
morning. Senator Leedy's original bill
abolished both the Office of state veteri-
marian and the live stock sanitary commits
sion. 1t is suspected now that the live
stock sanitary board was threatened il
order to make the abolition of
the state veterinarian easier. This bill
has been one of Senator Leedy's pet
measures and he winked knowingly
when the bill passed.
He says it will save the state $4,000 .
year. The state veterinarians duties are
imposed without extra remuneration
