have Uncle Sam turn over the arid

vised by Governor Thomas. We
thought he would be true TO the COM

money, it's not hard thing TO do.

Predicts Bryan VIII Not he Presi-
dent Though Elected.
Wichita, Kan, April 25.-Allen o. Myers
of Chicago, responding TO a. toast tonight
at the banquet of the Sunhower League
of Kansas, following William J. Bryan.
created a sensation by his utterances.
Mr. Bryan did not finish his speech un-
Ill after o'clock this morning.
Mr.. Myers drew a dark picture. The
country was fast racing to destruction,
said he, and Mark Hanna william Nc
Kinley and Great Britain were driving
it.
Then suddenly turning toward Mr.. Bry-
an the speaker exclaimed
You may be elected, sir, by a million
majority. but they will not permit you to
take the presidential chair. Look at the
fate of William Goebel Men whose pas
time is bribery find in murder an amuse-
ment.
"Ohlo was bought in 1896, the country
was bought. II will be bought again in
1900, and Mark Hanna's reward for IL is
a seat in the United States Senate"
The masses of the country would con-
tinue 10 permit the encroachments Of the
classes, concluded Mr.. Myers, until final
ly too late for restoration of rights by
the ballots. Then the sword and the
gun, violence, revolution-a new order Of
things.

HAWAIIAN GOVERNMENT BILL.
The Conference Report Was Agreed
to by the Senate.

The Conference Report Was Agreed
to by the Senate.
Washington, April 25.--After brief de-
bate to-day the Senate agreed to the con-
ference report on the Hawaiian civil gov
erument bill the provisions relating to the
right of franchise aud Imprisonment for
debt having been amended TO conform to
the ideas of the Senate.
At the conclusion of routine business
Mr.. Cpllom presented the conference re-
port on the Hawaiian bill. He explained
that the principal changes were the elimi-
nation of the provisions requiring the pay
ment of taxes before registration to vote
and Imprisonment for debt or for non-pay-
menL of taxes.
"As l understand It," said Mr. Bacon,
"all residents of The United States and
Hawaii are entitled TO the right of fan
chise without restriction as to the payment
of taxes
THAT is right" said Mr. Cullom. He
added that Offices were TO be filed by cit-
zens Of Hawaii.
Mr. TiIlman thought the same provision
ought to have been inserted in the Porto
Rican bill, 50 that 'carpet-ba ggers' should
not be inflicted upon those people"
Mr. Foraker pointed out that by the pro-
visions of the Porto Rican bill the Presi-
dent if he saw fit, could appoint officers
of Porto Rico from citizens of the island.
The conference report was then agreed
to without division.
