THE FOOLISH FRYE-HANNA BILL.

McLaurin is CEASED 80 an irresponsi-
BILE guerrilla. He reminds one of the
COW boys in the first war of indep.n-
dence. They operated not far from the
Present city CT New York in what was
known as Neutral Ground. They sold
beef to both sides-the British and the
Americans-and fought for neither. 1t
is true that he voted with h republi-
cans on the vile subsidy ship scheme Of
plumber. but he is ruled out as a demo-
crat and has not yet been circumsized
as a republican. The republicans as
yet do not safely claim him, but receive
help willingly. The effects of that vote
will stick to hat party forever we hope.
1t was vile. Forty-two voted to fasten
ID the people a systematized scheme
or robbery for a long, fixed time. The
New York Evening Post. Und..l says OF
the result.
Thus the republican party is COM

NIT it, to the policy of making gifts Of
public money to prosperous citizens en-
gagged in trades already flourishine. 1t

It is not without interest to see what
some northern newspapers say Of the
subsidy p%lundering bill. The Provi-
dance Rhode Island) Journal. Qnd.
Rep.) says Of Il New York Senator's
plea for the steal: "A careful reading
of Senator Depew's rehashed speech in
favor of ship subsidies adds, to the
long-standing difficulty of determining
whether the Bowery peach is ever to
be taken seriously" The Springfield
(Mass.) Republican, another %indipen-

liverance. 1t says that 1.-The subsidy
bill is a grab for Millionaire interests
which need no help from the public
treasury. If once enacted it will be
years before the nation can shake off
the parasite creation of subsidy or
check it's successful efforts to get a
larger and larger measure of public

He replied to the colonial Secretary
Chamberlain hat h was "a DID liar
The members sat stunned and silent.
Chamberlain made no response. Dill
lon refused 10 withdraw his remark
and he was suspended at once by a
great majority. He left the House
amid Irish cheers. This occurred:
"Mr. Chamberlain, proceeding, re-
ferred to the Beers who are fighting
on the British SIDE, when John Dillon,
Irish Nationalist, interjected. They
are traitors on which Mr.. Chamber

is a good judge Of traitors.
Mr.. Dillon then said: I will tell
the right honorable member thathe Is

"A dead silence followed this re-
mark. Such supplementary Ian
guage seemed to stun the House. The
speaker invited Mr.. Dillon to with

choosing that day for the beginning of
proceedings under the new constitu-

1.-The four years term OF office for
the president was computed from that

the fact that Washington was not in

United States senate, however, has
lately passed a joint resolution to sub
NIT a Constitutional amendment that
will bring about a change in the date
Of Inauguration, and a National COM

that future presidents will be inaugu-
