In the House.

Washington, Nov. II. - The house
yesterday made a lar start on the les
islatiOn for which it was convokcd in
special session, adopting a rule under
which a vote will be taken at 4 O'Clock
Ihursday afternoon on the bill to
make the Cuban reciprocity treaty eff
fectlve and entering on debate of the
Cuban bill. The rule was adopted by
a party vote with the exception that
six republican members from Michi-
gan and California joined the minority
In opposition to the rule. The Dem
ocrats opposed the rule on the ground
that it was drastic and prevented a
vote being taken on Il amendment
to the bill. While the six Republican
votes cast against it included oppOsi-
ton to the measure as antagOnistic to
beet sugar interests.
The short debate which preceded
adoption of the rule was followed by
several speeches on the merits Of the
measure. MIR. Payne opened the de-
bate in a speech whose keynote was
that the measure would not affect in.
%juriously sugar, tobacco or any other
interests, and was demanded by ma.
tional honor and good faith. For the
minority Representatives Williams of
Mississippi, Swanson of Virginia and
Robinson Of Indiana, made speeches,
criticising the Republicans for their
tariff policy and the excessive taxa
ton of the public.

scene before the gavel fell in that
BODY was one of animation, both on the
floor, in the cloakrooms and in the
lobbies and corridors.
Crowds Of eager spectators, both
men and women, thronged the CORR
doris and rotunda of the capitol early
in the day, and the galleries. to which
admission was had by card only, were
taxed to their capacity long before the
hour of assembling arrived.
In the house, except for the naming
of committees, which will follow later,
organization was completed. Joseph
G.. Cannon Of Illinois, whose elevation
to the speakership was assured some
months ago. was formally elected
speaker and indicted into office. Con
gresham Williams Of Mississippi was
given the complimentary votes Of the
Democrats. Mr.. Cannon received the

the customary resolutions adopted
providing for the appointment of a
committee to notify the president and
senate Of the election of a speaker and
clerk, and a committee to join a SEN
ate committee to notify the president
Of the presence Of a quorum in tho
two bodies. The hour OF meeting was

In the senate there was but little

the adoption Of the usual routines, in.

gathered and the president that an OK

Two Crimes Compared,

When We come to think OF it there is
little difference in the crimes OF Jack
Mccarthy OF Delta, and w. T. Downing
Whitewater, only McCarthy's crime was
the worst OF the two. He broke his own
boys arm with q club and brutally beat
all Of his family without any cause.
Downing broke McMullin's g arm with a
small bore gun. infiicting no bruises
whatever. and imagined at least he had
q csuse. and his friends at Whitewster
seem to be Of that opinion. Mccarthy
got of by giving his wife aud children
$1,000 Improperly and Downing is in jail
default Of q 500 bail. Mccarthy enjoys
his freedom and will not be molested in
the pursuit Of hspp meas. Downing is
behind iron bars and will no doubt
atone for his crime in the penitentiary
while his family suffers for his aid and
assistance. The great and over er-shsdow-
ing difference in these two cases lies in
the fact that Mccarthy tried to kill his
helpless boy and Downing tried to kill q
one horse lawyer.-Oursy Herald.

Drift Of Negroes TO Cities.

The statement by Booker Washington
In hrs snnual report to the trustees OF
Tuskegee institute that Influences are at
work which tend to make negroes leave
rural districts and make their homes in
cities- seems to be founded on fact.
While it may be true, % he said, the
desire to secure better police protection
may account 10 part for this drift. it is
probable that in the main the negroes
are yielding to much the same influences
that cause white people to leave the
farms and small towns and make their
homes in cities.
City lie is more attractive. 1t seems
to present more opportunities, aud there
is much in the desire Of human beings
to mingle with their kind. There is no
reason why these impulses should be
lees powerful with negroes than with
whites, and everyone knows that in
both Europe and the United States the
drift Of white population toward cities
presents one OF the most interesting, il
not most serious. problems OF the day.
1t is probable. however, that the re-
suit of this drift will be more injurious
to the black than to the white race.
The more artificial the lite one leads, the
greater is the tax on nervous energy and
strength; and hence the less highly de-
veloped his mental and physical consti-
tuition the less able 10 . man to with
stand this drain upon. his vital forces.
1t seems to be for soo,e such reason as
this that the introduction Of modern
civilization in country has sometimes
proved disastrous to natives Of lower
order.
There can be no question that planta-
tion life is the most conducive to the
health and physical veil being in ot6er
respects OF great majority OF negroes.
Transplanted to large city. they drift
to the poorer quarters and thus are COM
PEELED to live under les sanitary cordi-
tions than the whites. From this and
other causes they are impaired in health
and il is. therefore. not strange that sta
tistics show 4 much higher percentage
OF mortality amoog negroes in cities
than among whites.
1t is possible that the race problem in
this country will become in some re
spects city problem 10 the course Of
time Accompanying this may come
wider distribution Of the negro popula-
tion throughout the country. for while
life in the rural districts OF the North
would be unendurable to most negroes,
they accommodate themselves to condi-
tions in Northern cities 1.most As read
lily n to those OF similar communities in
the South.-Denver Republican.

Break Even.

The ball boys went TO Montrose and
played the team at that place Decora-
ton Day. The Delta team led in the
score all the way through until the 9th
inning when the Montrose boys, who
were ably assisted by timely roofing.
succeeded in winning the game BY
one run. resulting 10 score Of II to Is.
The Delta team proved to be heavy
batters and the in-field played good ball.
but the out-tield was weak and muffed
balls in the ninth that were inexcusable,
which gave Montrose the game.
The game at Olathe the following day
was won by the Deltaites by score OF
l6 to q and as the Olathe team recently
beat Montrose this leaves all three of
the teams on an equal footing.
The boys were treated like kings at both
places and took their defeat and victory
alike. considering tnat they did well for
the first lineup and both games being
away from home.
1t is likely that some interesting
games will be played on the home
grounds in the near future as both Mont
rose and Olathe are indulging in much
practice.

TALKS ABOUT TUNNEL PLANS.
Chief photographer Discusses Governments
Work 10 Connection With tie Gunaisoa Tunnel.

Denver Times.
F. II. Newell, the chief photographer
OF the government, arrived in the city
yesterday on business connected with
the governments plan to take over the
Gunnison tunnel project. During the
afternoon he called at the cham Der Of
commerce and talked with Secretary
Williams regarding the plans which are
now under way for the work. Mr.. Newell
will probably remain in the city for
several days, during which time be
will consult with many engineers re-
garding the irrigation schemes. In
speaking Of the tunuel yesterday. Mr.
Newell said:
1--WE are now making our plans for the
work which will be done on the Gunni.
SOD tunnel project, but there is nothing
definitely settled yet. The building OF
big canal and reservoir like the Guuni-
son project is almost like building rail-
road. Nothing can be done until all the
facts are obtained, and even then a
slight change in the engineers plans
may mean great deal in the whole pro-
ject.
Il am waiting now principally to learn
what the residents OF that part OF the
country which will be especially bene.
fitted by the plan are going to do. l
understand that a large number have
agreed share in the expense OF the
work. or course. the more persons who
enter into the scheme. the greater will
have to be our work. II the plan we're
to irrigste the government land alone,
the work could easily go ahead and
would not be Of such magnitude as It
likely will be. Our reports from the
Gunnison country are very favorable
and believe the work will be success.
/ cannot say yet as to when operations
will be commenced. All our plans have
10 be made first and this will take some
time. Then the matter must go 10 the
secretary for approval and the work
cannot be commenced until he orders it
to be DONE"
