HOUSE PASSED
THR OLRO BILL
Best Test Of Strength Was
on Motion to ReCOmmit
Product Cannot be Sent From OnC
State 10 Another That Has Pro-
hibitOry Law

Washington, Feb 1S.-The house
yesterday passed the oleomargarine
bill. There was no division on the
final passage, the real test Of strength
having been made on a motion to re-
commit. which was defeated by ma
jority of "a. The provision to require
the inspection and branding of reno
waited butter, which was adopted in
committee OF the whole Tuesday was
retained yesterday on an aye and no
vote AS finally passed the bill Is
somewhat modified from the form In
which IL was reported from the COM
mittee on agriculture. IL makes oleo
Or imitation butter or cheese trans
ported into any state or territory for
use. sale or consumption therein, sub
ject to the laws of such states or terri
tories, Notwithstanding that 1t may
be introduced in the original packages,
and imposes a tax Of 10 cents per pound
on oleo made IN imitation of butter
of any shade OF yellow When not
made in such imitation the tax is re-
duced to one-fourth of one cent per
pound. The second section is intended
TO prevent dealers, hotel proprietors,
restaurant and boarding house keep
ers from coloring the uncolored article,
by making any person who colors the
product and then sells or furnishes It
70 others a manufacturer within the
meaning Of the act Penalties for vio-
lation of the act are a fine of not less
than $50 nor more than $500 and inn
prisonment for not less than 30 days
nor more than six months.
War claims occupied the attention of
the house after the passage of the oleo
bill. and the day was made notable for
the passage of the first bill for the pay
ment of claims Of United States citi-
zens arising out of the Spanish war.
1t carried something over $4,000 for
the payment of POP claims for property
taken within the United States for the
use Of the army. An omnibus bill car
rying claims aggregating S2.114,552 for
stores and supplies taken from loyal
citizens during the civil war also was
passed. These claims were allowed
under the provisions of the Bowman
act. and the bill was identical with
one passed by the house at the last
session. Two other bills. which have
been before congress for % years. to
refer certain claims for additional
compensation by the builders Of GER
tain monitors during the civil war to
the court Of claims. were pissed.

This Is How:

must have been prime factors in Lin

grcssive, ardent brainy, being a born
leader-a popular hero like Clay. He
drafted the Kansas-Nebraska bill with
his sQuatter sovereignty nostrum in his
own house and passed il by his personal
force He was the most brilliant man in
public life and had flOOred Seward
Chase and Sumner in debate. In appear
ance he was compact, heavy set, with
massive head and shoulders, but as a
gentleman described him 10 my grand
mother about that time-'Douglas coat
tails are too near the ground for him
ever TO be President
shall not attempt TO review the career
of Lincoln as President. From his in
augmation until the hour of his death he
led the nation. With no experience in
the administration of the government he
mastered each problem of the war. He
personally dominated and directed the
military, domestic and foreign policies of
the war. Seward, Chase and Stanton ac-
knowledged his leadership.
Lincoln showed the perfection of liter
AIRY style in his Gettysburg speech and
second inaugural address. | recall in my
