TAXES ON STREET CARS.
License Fee of s1o for Each Car On
 the Streets of St Paul.

l ASsess0 tA 1SttS' VI 5A1k 4 duis The property owners of St Paul. Minnesota have decided to see what they can do. towards getting a little more taxes from the street railway company. The St Paul Daily News contains the following article on the subject:
 An ordinance will be introduced at the meeting of the board of aldermen Tuesday evening, providing for re- vision of the ordinances governing the taxation of street cars In St Paul. Under the charter the city railway company is required to pay a license fee of $10 for each car operated in the city. This covers not only the cars in daily use, but any ear that is used dur ing the year.
 s'About three years ago an agree ment was reached between the city railway company and certain officials,
 whereby the company was only re- quired to pay on the average number of cars in daily use--1S1.
 By the proposed ordinance the com pany will, be obliged to purchase from the city tags bearing a license num- Der, for which the regular $1O fee will
 be charged.
 The tags will be of size easily no- ticed and must be. conspicuously placed on the outside of the car.
 "A clause will be inserted, providing for the arresting and fining of the com pany for each car operated without the tag.
 aThe managers of the company have admitted privately that there are more that 181 cars in St Paul. but explain their objection to a payment of the H. cense on each car on the grounds that
 many days they do not operate the 181 cars, while only on some few days dur ing the year are more cars operated" ]" How much per car does the Connec- ticut lighting and Railway company pay to the city of Waterbury? Not cent, and yet it seems but yesterday wllen many of our distinguished citi- zens thought some folks were opposed to electricity because they contended that the company should come down handsomely for the privilege of using the streets.

The play is to be given for the benefit of the Friendly league under the patronage of the boar,
 cers of the Young Women's Friendly. league. The synopsis of the play and the cast will appear in full in Mon- days Democrat.

should again be placed before the House for consideration. He made an earnest argument In favor of this amendment, pointing out four material changes which he believed should be made in the rules aS they have existed for several Con gresses One of those was to provide that the right of recognition now lodged in the speaker be given to the nrst mem Der addressing the chair; the second was to provide for four suspension days a month instead of two, the third was to provide for the revival of the old morn ing hour" as 1t existed before the first Congresses of which Mir. Reed was speaker, and the fourth was to provide that Senate amendments to House pills should be subject to the same points of order to which they would be subjected had the amendments originated Tn the House.
 MT. Hepburn contended that the present rules gave the speaker entirely too much power and he made the point that there was nothing in the constitution which re- quired that the presiding officer chosen by the House should be a member of that body.
 MT. Dalzell (Pa.) replied at considera- ble length to MT. Hepburn's argument. contending that the present rules were an evolution and had worked so admira- ply in facintatlng the tranSactlon or DuSf- ness that the Democrats despite their outcry against them during the 51st Con gress. had not dared to materially modify them when they came back into power in the 52nd Congress. He took occasion to score MT. Hepburn for harpsag on the subject of the rules. This a.odsed Mir Hepburn and he retorted that if he (Mr Hepburn) could change his position witt the same facility that the gentleman from Pennsylvania could, he would prob. ably be able to get more new material into his speeches.
 The discussion lasted about two hours. MT. Shattuc (0hio) supported the Dal- zeli resolution.
 MT. Grow Pa.) though generally fin favor of the old rules, desired a modifica- ton which would take away from the chairman of committees the power of controlling time on measures before the house.
 When Mir. Hepburn's motion was put it was defeated by an overwhelming vote. about to 1. He then offered in success sion as distinct amendments the four notifications of the rules which he had suggested in his argument. These were in turn voted down. The highest vote which any of them received was fl. Nc question of policy was broached at the caucus today.
