The following comparison between
Spain and this country speaks volumes
and is worth remembering. Spain too
ought to consider the matter, and quite
likely her wise men do.
The population of this country is now
fully seventy millions; that of Spain
seventeen millions. The exports from
the United States for the fiscal year 1897
were 81 1850, 1893, 900; those from Spain
S179, $4,000; the imports by the United
States for the same period we're $764,.
100000 against only sl53,ll5,0O0 by
Spain. The interest bearing debt Of
Spain on the other hand is about 81 ,500,'
100000, against about $1,000, 900. 600 for
the United States exclusive Of cash in

tsnator Hanna Downed by His Neigh

full Retrest-The Hurry Call
In the Legislature.

Columbus, o., March 16.-[Special.1 ]
It was quite evident from the make
up Of the house committee selected by
Speaker Mason investigating the
charges made by number of corre-
spondents in the legislature, and par
tlcularly by Mr. Herbert Corey of the
Columbus Press--that lobby was i'm
properly influencing members and con-
trolling legislation there, that the in
tention was that 1t should discipline
members Of the press to whom the
courtesy Of the floor has been extend
ed, for thus assuming the right to
criticise in this unfavora5le way, the
conduct of members, and the sway Of
the lobby. The developments of the
investigation, however, in spite of the
efforts of those who have been trying
to steer It, have been decidedly start
ling. So far the inquiry has been kept
generally along the line of the two
cent railway fare bills. These bills
have proved fine picking for the lobby
1t would seem, but they have not re-
ceived its exclusive attention. II the
members Of the committee began their
work with the intention of depriving
q few newspaper men Of their seats in
the house, as no doubt they did, they
have probably changed their minds. It
would hardly be safe to make propo-
sition in the house now, in the light
Of the investigation as far as it has
gone, to even reprove any newspaper
reporter for anything he may have
written in regard to this matter. II
any reporter is to be blamed at all
it would seem that he erred in letting
the lobby and the boodlers down too
easy.
A trap was about to be laid for the
two-cent fare bill lobby when the
newspaper exposure Of the matter
came. "You have made a most egreg-
ious blunder," said a well-known Re-
publican politician to the writer, when
the exposures came. How So" he
was asked.
"You have flushed the birds Just
when we were about to get them into
a trap" said he. Explaining further
he said that he had been apprised of
what was going on, discovered who
was handling the money and had laid
a good plan to catch him in the act
Of using the money to buy votes. This
he had figured out would not only
overthrow the lobby, but result in the
passage of the two-cent fare bill. On
the whole the lobbyists and their
friends in the house may feel that they
have escaped a much worse fate, no
matter what the result Of the investi-
cation is.

The result of the Republican pri-
mary elections in the city of Cleve-
land afford an object lesson that is
full Of interest and instruction here.
1t was an overwhelming defeat for
Senator Hanna and his friendS, by
Mayor McKisson. Senator Hanna
would naturally want to make as good
a showing as possible in his own city
at the first primary election held aft
er his senatorial contest, and no doubt
did all in his power to make things
come his way. But they did not come
In every precinct save one, the Nc
Kisson men won. 1t can mean but
one thing, and that is that Senator
Hanna is not popular among the Re-
publicans Of Cuyahoga county. Mayor
McKisson goes directly back from Co
lumbus, after he has made an open
fight on Senator Hanna, used all his
power to prevent his election to the
senate, and is practically given an al
most unanimous Endorsement
About the only thing Senator Hanna
can say, that is at all apropos, is that
q prophet is not without honor save
within his own country. Possibly 1t
might also be pleaded in extenuation
that he was not permitted to return
to Ohio to look after his own political
affairs, nor could Colonel Dick come
back to look after them. The fact is
that as long as the Ohio senate Is In
session neither the senator nor Col
onel Dick will be safe in crossing the
Ohio boundary. The bribery investi-
eating committee, whose subpoenas
Senator Hanna and Colonel Dick have
ignored, has arranged to keep posted
on the movements of these two men
at Washington, and the moment one
of them takes train at Washington
and starts in the direction Of Ohio,
notice is Immediately sent to the
chairman of the committee here and
sergeant-at-arms is sent out armed
with a summons for him. If the COM

Congressional Fights.

Congressional Fights.
An interesting fight over the Repub,
lication nomination for congress in the
Fifteenth district is reported. Con.
gresham Van Voorhis wants to be
nominated for another term, but, hav.
ing had two terms already, his right tc
the third one is by no means conceded
In fact, there are opponents for the
nomination all around Mr.. Van Voor-
his. Guernsey" Taylor is among them
and will go into the convention, which
is to be held on May 10, with his coun-
ty solid. Representative Leland of No
Bile is looked upon as dangerous op-
ponent too, but i'll health has sent him
of to Georgia, and his friends say he
will not be candidate. Washington
county brings out two candidates. They
are e. r. Alderman, an editor, and
Theodore f. Davis. The district is
noted for its long fights and ballotings
for the congressional nominations, and
the conditions seem to be favorable
this time for it to keep up it's record.
Friends of Congressman Archibald
Lybrand Of the Eighth district say he
is sure to be renominated; that his
chances have greatly improved in the
last three weeks. However, the fact is
that the anti-Hanna Republicans are
after him for the very active part he
took In the congressional contest in
behalf Of Senator Hanna, and when
they do go after a man they generally
succeed in giving him trouble at least.
This legislature is making a record
for the number and nature of the in
vestigations it has set on foot. Each
side has had two. In the senate there
are the trust and the senatorial bribery
Investigations, and in the house the
state prison and the Doodle lobby in
Vestigations. There is a rumor now
that if the 2-cent fare bill of Senator
Valentine is defeated one may grow
out Of that matter. Senator Valentine
knows some things that, to say the
least strongly indicate the use Of
money against the bill. When this bill
was up for discussion in the senate two
weeks ago Senator Valentine made the
statement on the floor that Ahe knew
some things that he did not want to
state then and there, but he might be
compelled to do so. If the bill is de-
feated it is believed that the senator
will ask for an investigation of the
course and acts of certain senators.

A Hurry Call,

A hurry all along the line is no.
ticeable in the work of the legisla-
ture and 1t is quite plain that the in
fluence Of the state administration is
being used in aid of an early adjourn
ment. Chairman Jones of the house
finance committee is pushing the com
pletion Of the general appropriation
bill with all possible speed, and time
in both branches is being economical
upon. The house is already meeting
earlier In the morning and afternoon,
and resolution to the same effect is
pending in the senate. Both branches
will probably begin next week to hold
night sessions for the consideration of
local bills. While it will leave much
important legislation unfinished, it
now seems likely that the date of final
adjournment will not be later than
April %.
1t seems strange, considering the
prominence Of the state of Ohio in the
Union and the fighting proclivities of
her people, that no important warship
Of our navy has ever been given her
name. The omission, however, Is to be
remedied at once. Three vessels are
about to be christened, and the gov
ernor and the legislature have taken
the initial sep to have one of them
named Ohio"

BILL ABOUT READY.
Senate Finance C ommitte Has Nearly
s.! Completed Revenne Meas ure.

Washington, May 9.-When the Senate
consideration of the Republican amend
ments to the war revenue bill had been
almost entirely completed although
there were some puzzling problems still
unsolyed. one of which was the manner
of dealing with proprietary medicinal
articles. There will probably be uni.
form tax on all of these.
The committee has decided to place a
license upon banks at the rate of $1,000
year and upon brokers at the rate Of $50,
but has not not yet determined whether
the professions shall he licensed or not
On life insurance companies the rate has
been increased fve-fold, being made 10
cents on every hundred dollars, and it
is estimated that this increase will add
about million dollars in revenue. The
provision for an inheritance tax and a
tax on bills Of lading were both adopted
as were the provisions for taxing all deal
ing in futures, including bucket shop
operations. The bill as it will be report
ed, will contain a provision requiring
That's memorandum be made of all deals
of this character however small and that
a two-cent stamp be placed on this
memorandum. The Democratic amend
ments will be taken up tomorrow and
there is very little doubt that they will
be adopted as Senator Jones of Nevada
has indicated his purpose of standing
with the Democrats on all the principal
changes they suggest. 1t is possible that
the consideration OF the bill may be COM
pleted tomorrow, but it is not probable.
