come Tax. Senator Hooking read a
| transcript from the House records on
! the action on the passage Of the bill
at third reading by that body He
favored the Income Tax.
At II o'clock the Senate adjourned
TO 1:3O o'clock
At the afternoon session Senator
Brown said the defeat of Schedule r.
would make no difference to the final
returns from taxation. He held that
If he paid an income tax and another
tax on cash on hand it was double
taxation and would be declared un-
constitutional The Senator still con-
tended that the bill passed the House
contrary to constitutional provision.
Senator Holstein asked what the re-
suit would be if Schedule Z were re-
pealed, the Income Tax were passed
and then declared unconstitutional.
He said he would favor both and let
them go before a commission who
should examine both schemes and re-
port on something feasible.
Senator Baldwin replied to Senator
Browns argument on whether or not
the bill passed the House. He said he
had no fear of it's unconstitutionality
The motion of Senator Brown to
adopt that portion of the majority re-
port which recommended laying the
Income Tax bill on the table resulted
in a tie vote, Senators Brown, Kau-
hama, ice, Wilcox, Lyman and Hol-
stein voting to adopt and Senators
Baldwin, Wright, Hooking, Kepoikai,
Schmidt and McCandless voting not
to adopt. President Wilder voted to
adopt.
The motion to lay the bill on the
table repeating Schedule E prevailed,
Senators Baldwin, Wright, Hooking,
KepOil1ai. Schmidt, McCandIess, Hol-
stein and Kauhana voting in favor and
Senators Brown, Rice, Wilcox and Ly-
man voting in the negative.
The bill providing that all laymen .

HOUSE.

The opening business of yesterdays
session was the reading of amend
ments to Senate bills 4 and 5, not con-
Cured in by the Senate. At nearly
every item there were cries of "ku-e'
from the members.
Representative Loebenstein arose at
the completion of the reading of the
amendments to Senate Bill and
moved that the House do not concur.
The Senate had thrown out items in
the bill that the House had carefully
considered for days and days. The
Senate spent two hours at the most
on the bill. Representative Robert
son moved that a special committee
be appointed to confer with the Sen
ate committee on the items nOn-cOn-
Cured in.
Minister Damon stated that he knew
from members of the Senate and the
Executive that the bill had been placed
in its present shape SO as to obtain a
conference with the House Committee
He suggested the appointment of
special committee.
Representative Gear said he was sur
knew from some of the members that
the sole reason for non-concurrence in
some of the items had been the fact
that there was no information forth
coming in regard to these. 1t was the
object to let the House do the work

was announced by the Speaker to con-
fer with Senate Committees on the

There are ire quent blockhouses inclosed by trochas, and with a guard along the railroad track. With this exception there is no human life or habitation between these fortified towns and villages, and throughout the whole of the four western provinces, except to a very limited extent among the hills where the Spaniards have not been able to go and drive the people to the towns and burn their dwellings, I saw no house or hut in the four hundred miles of railroad rides from Pinar del Rio province in the west across the full width of Havana and Matanzas prov inces, and to Sagua la Grande on the north shore, and to Cienfuegos on the south shore of Santa Clara, except within the Spanish trochas.

THE WEALTH OF ARIZONA.
The Law Abiding Citizens and the
 Schools of the Territory.

Arizona is one of the most law abld- ing regions of the entire count y.- Lie is as safe in the territory as 1t IS m the cities of New York and Chicago. The infractions of the law are less in Arl- zona in proportion to the population than in either of these cities. More robberies and deeds of violence are committed in the large cities of the east in proportion to the population than in Arizona The telegraphic re- ports of crimes committed in the terri tory do an injustice.T people are intelligent and progressive, and have some of the largest and most wealthy mines in the world. One mine is com monly reported to be worth $50 900 and another is quoted at $30 900, 900. There are many smaller properties that range from s6,O00,0 or s7,000
 900 down. The school system is not surpassed in the United States. No expense is spared to make the schools fulfill their purpose in the highest de- gree. The total enrolment in the common schools is 13,362, with 324 teachers. Expenditures for school purposes foot up annually about S206,
 GOO, an average per pupil of S31.31. The valuation of common school prop
 erty is nearly s5OO,OOO. About s150,OOO more will be added if the buildings of the territorial university and territor
 ial normal school be included in the estimate. The places on the bench are now filled by Ohio men, who were sent out to distribute justice to the terri tory.-Mining and Industrial Reporter.

brick. Weigh Clerk S. H. Graham expects to be able to state the result of the assay early next week.
 That Maine company had been formd, with reported capital of S50,- 900, to endeavor to obtain gold and sil- yer from sea water has been known for some weeks, but this is the first tangible evidence to reach the public of the company's operations. Mining men are not disposed to be nervous over the situation. They unite in the conclusion that the importance of the Maine venture rested entirely upon the proportion that the expenses may bear to the product.
 Dr. Harry Wurtz of New York city, formerly chemical examiner of the United States patent office, demon strated thirty years ago the existence of gold and silver in sea water. Owing to the minute quantities in which they are held in solution, their recovery as a business proposition has, however, generally heretofore been looked upon as impracticable.
