THE ST. LOUIS REPUBLIC
GIVES HON. Ii. A. ENLOE
Credit for Passing the Income
Tax Bill In 1S04-His Pension
Work Saved Many Millions.
The St. Louis Republic of February 9,

The st. Louis Republic of February 2,
1894, says:
One of the happiest men in the house
over The passage Of tie Income Tax as d
part of the Wilson Bill is Mr.. Enloe of
Tennessee,
Mr. Enloe had the honor of presiding
over the house In committee of the whole
the night before the final struggle when
the general debate went out In a blaze
of eloquence. lie also took an active
part In the discussion and worked I'm.
ceasingly for the glorious victory which
finally came for the measure as il passed
the house. Near the close of the debate.
replying to Reed, who fought the entire
bill and to Mr.. Cochran, of New York
who fought the Income Tax with great
vigor, he scored the protectionist and
stirred up the Tammany Tiger on the
Income Tax.
Mr.. Enloe is regarded as hard fighter
on the floor and IN committee and an
untiring worker for his constituents. He
won Il national reputation In fighting
Reed and the Force Bill in the Fifty-first
Congress. lie drove the republican post
master OF the house In that congress from
public life for corrupt practices. He un-
earthed the rottenness of Raum and his
administration and sent him TO private
life in disgrace He is the best posted
man in the house on pensions. and his
work in that line will save $50, 900 900
to the tax payers next year, and the result
will be a saving of hundreds of millions
In the end
Mr.. O'Neal, of Massachusetts of the
committee on appropriations has repor-
ted the pension bill for next year with a
reduction of $40, 600, 900 from last years
appropriation and he says the reduction
is the result OF the fight made for an hon,
est pension roll. The present commits.
sioner Of pensions will turn back to the
treasury the first day Of July next $751;
100000 appropriated last year. Ranm
had started out to run up the pension
list to 200, 600, 900 in 1894. By honest
methods, for which Mr.. Enoe has made
the fight In congress. the increase to
$500, 600, 900 was stopped and 10000
900 already appropriated for this year
was saved, and $15, 900, 900 will be saved
next year.

Mr.. BURKETT'S STATEMENT
AS to Why the Returns for Mad
isOn Comfy Were Withheld.

In the Daily Wing of last week APP
peared lengthy article purporting to
give the substance of a speech delivered
at Paris, Tennessee, July 10th, by Hon.
7. w. Sims who Is seeking the nomina,
ton for Congress, IN said article Mr..
Sims is represented as saying Gn refer
ence TO the action Of the Congressional
committee at Lexington in 1896 In de.
claring the nomination upon the face of
the rcturns) THAT the Madison county
returns, after said decision by the COM
mittee were fraudulently altered, changed
and forged, so Ms to give Mr.. Enloe a
majority in Madison county exceeding
the actual majority received by him,
sufficient to overcome the majority given
Mr. Sims in the rest OF the district; that
because Of said fraud and forgery, said
Madison county returns were never sub
milted 10 the committee or acted up0 nby
them, and only the returns OF the nine
other counties were considered" This
taiement made by Mr.. Sims Is not corr
rect. The Congressional rules required
that tn, Congressional Committee should
canvass the returns and declare the
result The committee ut It's meeting ut
Lexington decided by vote to take
up the counties alphabetically and
determine the result. Benton, Car.
roll Chester, Decatur, Henry Hender-
son and Hardin, were all called before
Madison county was reached. But the
, otes were not canvassed. The commit
teemen from these counties simply
stated the votes given and the returns
were not examined or scrutinized by the
committee to see If they were properly
reported. When Madison County was
called, las committeeman from said
county refused to produce the returns
for the reason that the returns of
other counties had not been CAN
vAssED according tv the rule, al
though Mr. Enloe's friends had re,
repeatedly demanded canvass OF the
returns. But the Madison county re.
turns had been correctly published In
the Jackson Sun which / was at that
time editing and publishing, aud copy
OF the Sun was produced by one of Mr..
Sims friends and the votes therein pub.
lished we're used by majority of the
committee In declaring the result. The
statement made by MIR Sims that
"Only the returns from the nine other
counties were considered" is not correct

made the nomination used the publish

dates Grows Warm.
HENDERSON, Tenn, July 26.-The
candidates for Congress spoke to
large audience here to-day. Mr..
Sims led of, followed by Cole, Enloe
and Trout, In order named.
The candidates made their usual
speeches except that Mr. Cole charged
Mr.. Sims with misconstruing the law,
and drawing money for clerk hire, to
which he was not entitled, especially
IN certifying that II was necessary to
aid him IN the discharge of his du.
ties as representative when Con-
gress was not In session, and he had
nothing to do.
He again called Oh Mr.. Sims to tell
to whom he paid 1t.
Mr.. Enloe Oh this point said If he
had drawn So, 10000 OF the public
money in trust to be paid out for
specific service, he would not have to
be called OIL twice to tell to whom he
paid it.
lie said Mr. Cole asked that ques-
tion the first day at Paris, and again
asked 1t at Linden, Mr.. Sims home,
and Messrs. Trout aud Cole, he
thought, were entitled to have a de-
tailed answer; that Mr.. Sims could
not, in justice TO himself refuse to
answer them publicly. Gu this point
Mr.. Trout said he put the question
to Mr.. Sims at jackson yesterday,
aud that Sims publicly offered to
show the list to anybody privately,
who wanted to see il. Mr.. Trout
said he then asked Mr.. Sims to let
him see IL privately, and Mr.. Sims
replied that the list was at mis- home
IN Linden. lie charged that Sims
drew money tor clerk hire unner
Misrepresentation of the law, to which
he was not entitled. In his rejoinder
Mr.. Sims said that there was an eff.
fort to throw mud at him. That he
paid out all he received and more. for
clerk hire. He said he had record
at home, but after all, 1t rested Oh his
word OF honor, and it would have to
rest there. Messrs, Cole and Trout,
in their reioinders, again asked him
to show the list, aud repeated their
arguments 10 prove their first asser.
tions. This crowd was orderly. and
oheered the speakers with great
show Of impartiality. The most

We have the power 10 acquire territory

In respect to Porto Rico we are not
