Ways and Means Committee.

Washington. April ia very high
tension is manifest among members
of the house today as the result of the
action of the house last night in over
riding the ways and means committee
on the Cuban reciprocity bill.
Chairman Payne took the reverse
philosophiCally. He pointed out the
effect of the amendment was TO take
off not only the di.ferential on sugar
but also the Countervaiiing duty pro
vided by the DinCley law, a result not
intended By the autEor of the amend
ment.
Mr.. Morris. of Minnesota. who franz
ed the amenlnent, said he did not
think the claim good, but if ii was the
matter could easily be remedied by
amenument
The senate is by no means decided
what it will DO with the bill. The best
opinion is the bill Will remain in the
committee on relations for Cuba for
some time. Mr.. Teller says he VIII
support anv action calculated to kill
the bill in the senate. Not few sena-
tors predict the hill will be allowed 10
die in committee.

SPEAKER CHANGES FRONT.
He DecIires to Fix Date For Con-
sideratlon of Statehood.
SUProRTCR3 DETERMINED.

A special dispatch to the st. Louis
GlobeDenocrat. from Washington.
under date OF April 16. says:
The bill granting statehood to Okla
| homa, Arinoza and New Mexico is in
the air again. and friends of the meas
ure are alarmed at the latest switch of
Speaker Henderson on the proposition.
| 1t was announced yesterday that the
| speaker had agreed to fix April 2S as
the date for the consideration of the
measure n the house. The delegates
from the territories were highly elated
ever the prospects for an early vote
on their bill. Today they are in the
dumps over the announcement by the
speaker that he will not be able to fix
April 2S or any other date for a GER
tainty.
In conversation this morning with
Delegates Flynn and Rodey the speak
er stated that he had intended to have
the statehood bill taken up next week.
but that he had been forced by the
press of business TO defer the consider
alton to later date. He insisted that
ho would fix a date for the BILL but that
he could net. at this time. state just
when he would have the measure
brought up. Every effort was made to
induce him to indicate the position of
the bill, whether 1t would be taken up
after the oleomargarine bill, the army
| foTtifications bill or what position 1t
| had with reference to any of the i'm
portant measures that are to be con-
sidered by the house. The speaker de-
clined to furnish the information.
The delegates from the three terri
tories will meet to decide upon plan
of action. They are very much disap-
pointed over the speakers attitude
and realize thoroughly that the
chances for the passage of the meas
Ure at this term of congress are being
materially lessened. They are placed
in the position of choosing between al
lowing the bill remain on the calendar
until too late for consideration, or an
tagonlzing the speaker by calling II up
as privileged bill. as they have a
right to do. under the rules of the
house. There is another objection to
calling the bill up as q privileged meas.
ure, and one that the speaker and the
other opponents of the bill fully appre-
ciate. III the bill is called up as priv
| ileged measure It will be at the ex-
pense OF whatever measure is slated
for consideration by the house at the
time This might cost the statehood
bill a number of votes. although the
delegates are determined to take this
cnance, unless they are assured of ear
ly consideration of their measure by
appointment of the speaker.
There are votes enough in the house
pledged to the bill to assure ITS Ias-
sage whenever it can be called up foi
consideration.

OBSERVATIONS
BY SARAH B. HARRIS


Untried men sometimes acquire a
reputation for great ability. That man
OF mediocre ability is fortunate who
has lived a life of obscurity, a life
which has not made great demands
upon him. Many kings and other
rulers have been execrated by their
times and by posterity for no more
personal reason than that they were
unequal to the responsibilities of their
birth and position. Mr.. J. Sterling
Morton. the most widely honored citi-
zen Of Nebraska, was tried in various
conspicuous positions Of great re-
sponsibility and he was not found
wanting at any time He was repeat
yielded to the tempter, greater honors
might have been heaped upon him, but
nobody knows Of any occasion wherein
he struck his colors.
He might have been nominated by
the democratic party for president II
he had only consented, not to advocate
free silver but just to suppress his
opinion in regard to the expediency Of a
single standard. He considered the
suggestion a challenge to do all that
he could on the platform. with his pen
and by the use Of an extensive infiu-
ence to secure the firmer establishment
Of the gold standard. As the secre-
tary Of agriculture, in President Cleve-
lands second cabinet, he endeavored to
stop the distribution of seeds to farm
ers by congressman, a survival which
costs the agricultural and the post
Office departments millions of dollars
annually. There is everything to be
said against the custom and nothing
In favor Of 1t. But Mr.. Morton's sue
cessor yielded to the clamor and re-
sumed the distribution Of flower and
vegetable seeds. Mr.. Morton was a
farmer; he had been in Washington
long enough to know just what an
outcry a withdrawal Of a trifling pat
ronage from congressman would
cause. But the man, the deed and the
time were met and the expenses Of the
of agriculture, while Mr..
Morton was secretary, were largely re-
duced. Not that it has made much
difference to the country. His sue
cessor reinstated the corrupt custom
and the useless employees who were
kept In the department by a pull
snapped back into 1t just as soon as q
new secretary was appointed. But the
time may come when another secre-
tary Of agriculture possessing Mr..
Aorton's mental integrity and his per-
sonal bravery and self-respect may be
appointed. In that case Mr.. Morton's
will strengthen him to gird
up his loins and do battle with an
ancient wickedness.
A son Of an old and well-to-do fam
lily in Michigan and graduated BY
Union college. Mr.. Morton might have
remained In the east. He preferred to
make q home and found q family in
the west. On his wedding day. Octo-
Der -. 1854. he started with Ars. Nor
ton for Nebraska, and after a long
Journey they arrived in Bellevue After
! few weeks they took the homestead
n Nebraska City which these pioneers
II nfty years ago have dEeloped into
! manufacturing centre. Mr.. Morton
deliberately renounced ease and the
comforts Of fully settled community
or little house on the prairies and
he opportunity to be Of boundless in
luence and usefulness in new COM
nunity.
The prairie grass billowed around
lis home and the young man and his
wife were homesick with gazing on
