REVENUE BILL PASSED.
Goes Through the House Under Forced
PreaauPe

Washington. April 29.-The House
to-day passed the war revenue bill.
with only the amendments agreed up
on by the Republican members of the
ways and means committee added. In
order to accomplish this parliament
tary mnneuver was necessary, MS the
whole time for amendments was ex-
hnusted by the minority in trying to
amend the bond feature of the bill
Mr.. Dingley offered as n substitute an
entirely new bill. containing these
amendments. after the bill had been
reported to the House. This was an
old parliamentary trick frequently re-
sorted to years ago.
Many amendments We're offered to
the bond feature of the bill, ranging
from a proposition for the substitute
Of an income tax provision, to an nu-
thorization for an issue of $50 million
dollars of greenbaclis. But all were
voted down. At the last minute the
Democrats decided to offer the motion
to recOmmit, with instructions to re-
port back the income tax proposition
as an amendment TO the bill, instead
Of as substitute for the bond propo-
sition. This was due to the fact that
number of Democrats declined to vote
to strike out the bond provision. The
motion was defeated. 1874 to lib. Four
Republicans voted with the Democrats
and PopuIists on this vote. But on
the final passage OF the bill (Which
was carried. 1S1 to 131), the Demo-
Gratis and Populists, with six excep-
tions, voted solidly against the bill.

Remembering that after all he owed

The portrait was hung up In the

long: the earl did not like to hear the
comments upon It. One morning he

The BULLETIN desires to call
attention of advertisers to its dis
play of advertisements.
In no metropolitan paper in
America are ads displayed more
artistically. Look at Warehouses;

nence given to everything he
wishes the public to see promi-
nently; look at the Manufacturers
Shoe Co.'S ad on the eighth page;
McInerny's on the fourth page
and Jordan's on the fifth. The
last is as artistic as the title page
of book turned out by Harper's.
The artistic BULLETIN has in its
employ the most artistic ad setter
that ever came to the Islands. He
com mands a large salary and he
earns it. Nor are the small ads of
the artistic BULLETIN overshadow-
ed by the larger ones. Their dis
play are equally as pronounced,
equally as commendable.

entirely been lost by the introduc-
ton of lineotype machines.
