Democratic Members of Committee
Wish TO See Tariff Bill.
WASHINGTON, April 26.--The Dem
ocratic members of the Finance Com
mittee will not accept the proposition
made by their Republican colleagues
to allow the tariff bill to be reported
direct to the Senate without passing
through the hands of the full commit
tee, and have so notified the Repub-
lican members. Senator White, a MEM
Der of the Finance Committee. was
asked his views regarding the matter,
and is believed to have voiced the
views of all the Democratic members
in his reply. He said:
81 would be glad to crafty the per-
sonal inclinations of any Senator, but
speaking for myself only, / am unable
to perceive the propriety of such
course, and cannot acquiesce in it.
When the bill is reported to the SEN
ate the Democratic members ought to
be able to Immediately lay before their
colleagues a comparatively full state
ment of the infirmities of the proposed
measure. This cannot be done unless
the subject is properly discussed in
committee, and if examined there with
care much labor will be saved when
the proposition is submitted to the Sen
ate. If the Democratic members are to
be of any use on the committee it must
be because they would be able to give
this information.
Besides fair presentation of the
views of the minority may lead to inn
mediate changes and Improvement of
the bill. If we consent to the adoption
of the plan outlined by the Republican
members it will be said that we have
given away our case and are represent
ing but half-hearted opposition: Such
scheme would be novel, would re-
quire explanation and cannot result
favorably to public interest If our Re-
public brethren have improved the bill
so as to make it passably digestible,
they can afford to submit it to careful
and conservative criticism in the COM
mittee-room The country, of course,
understands that the Republican men,
bers of the Finance Committee have
had the bill since it passed the House,
and the minority has interposed no
obstruction and have not been in a
position to intelligently examine
single schedule, and the situation will
not be altered until the details of the
measure are disclosed.

PRICE FIVE GENTS.

He has apparently forgotten that
several of the beet sugar factories now
in operation in California, are en-
ploying Chinese labor. while there are
thousands of white men looking for
work. His statement that the profits
of the Hawaiian plantations are divert
ed to the amount of $4,000, 900 into
the pockets of English and Germans,
can be refuted. not only by the official
figures, given in Commissioner
Blount's report to the United States
Congress, but also by the books of the
various companies paying dividends in
this city. Take, for instance. the COM
pany of which he is president, the
Hutchinson Sugar Company, and
whose monthly dividends are paid in
this city TO the shareholders, COM
prising widows and orphans, whose
little capital has been invested upon
the belief that any venture in which
he is interested is a secure one, and
who may be ruined if his efforts to
abrogate the Hawaiian Treaty are sue
cessful It has clearly been shown that
out of the total of So, 900. 900 invested
in sugar plantations of the Hawaiian
Republic, that American citizens and
others of American decent own $25,-
600 500.

Sugar TRUST Chapman's Fate Rest s
with the District Attorney
WASHINGTON, April 27.-No action
has yet been taken by District Attor-
ney Davis toward enforcing the SEN
tence passed upon Elverton Chapman,
the contumacious Sugar Trust witness,
who was sentenced to pay fine of 800
and to be imprisoned for 80 days. The
District Attorney has not yet had an
opportunity to read the decision of the
Supreme Court, denying the petition
for release, as the opinion has not been
released by the Court. 1t IS thought
that Davis will enforce the sentence
and then bring the remaining defend
ants-Havemeyer, Seymour, Searles,
Mccartney. Schriver and Edwards-to
trial. Counsel for these claim that
their cases cannot be brought within
The terms of the Supreme Court de-
cision, but the Chapman case has all
along been held to be test one, ana no
it is believed that the President Will
not grant an application for pardon.

where he struck the ground. He was
picked up by some passengers and

4 NEW ERA.

TnE OASIS was one of the few re. publican papers in all the west, ane especially In the mining states, that stood true blue to the republican party throughout the entire cam. pagn, endorsing the St. Louis plat form upquali idedly. Previous to tn, national convention THE OASIS was m outspoken Mckinley and souno money republican paper, and sine, that time we have never regretted oul stard.
 President McKinleys administra. tion has been one of strength an6 character and the results have beer very satisfactory to the business world. Confidence has been restored and horded capital is seeking invest ment, fact that is very potent here in Arizona where more capital has heen invested since March than was during the entire previous four years This is owing to President Mckinley financial. protective and foreign pol icy. To carry out this policy the pres. ident associated with him as advisers the greatest men of the country headed by that imperial American and statesman, John Sherman. al the head of the state department. No American more American evel lived. no greater statesman or diplo- mat has lived or has livee at tue pres. ent time, and trucr republican never voted tue republican ticket. He has inaugurated firm foreign policy yoio of all jingosm, but dignilied an Amer. ican.
 It is such men as President McKin. Icy has honored with office to sustain the great principles of the republican party that have restored the present confidence and caused capital to seek investment. This is only the begin. ming of an era of prosperity that will will rival that of any in the hlstor of our republic, and we predict thai by the time another presidential cam paign rolls around that the present administration will have placed American industries and Americar credit on such foundation that the disasterous reign of free trade and tn, evil influences of hatism will have been forgotten.
 Let every Arizonian put his shoul der to the wheel and when the new era reaches it's zenith, Arizona will be at the top.
