WILLIAMS ON TARIFF
MR.. HEPBURN OF IOWA REPLIES.
TO MINORITY LEADER.
Both Houses Of Congress Adjourn
Until Friday-Cuban Reciprocity
Bill Goes Over.

There was an hour of informal and in
teresting talk in the House Of Repre-
sentatives this afternoon. 1t began with
some laughable pleasantries by Mr.. De Ar
mond of Missouri, but soon resolved itself
into a good old-fashioned tariff discussion.
participated in by the leaders of both sides
The consistency with which the democratic
members are delving into the tariff when
ever the opportunity for a speech presents
itself indicates that the regular session will
be filled to overlooking with a discussion of
the schedules.
The talk this morning came about on
the motion of Mr.. Payne, the republican
floor leader, that when the House adj
journed 1t be to meet Friday. Mr.. Williams
of Mississippi asked that unanimous con-
sent be given for debate of thirty min
utes each side
Speaker Cannon called forth laughter and
applause from both SIDES when he put the
request before the body. He said gentle
men asked consent for thirty minu les'
talk on each side. There was no OBJ &C.
ton. The Speaker then put the motion
that the adjournment should be until FRI
day Upon division it was agreed to.
a point of order was then made that as
the motion before the House had been act
ed upon, there could be no DEBATE.
The Speaker ruled that consent had been
given. not for a debate, but for an '.hour's
tax. Again there was applause. The
informally of the occasion seemed to ap-
peal to the members, and all of them took
a lively interest in the proceedings that

Intoxicated with Equality

Perhaps as we'll as any other

what Mr.. koosevelt's champion

in this country.

entered a white mans barber
shop, in which were many Gus
toners and noisily demanded to
be seryed. The proprietor re-
fused to serve him advising him
to go to 4 shop which was con

CAPITAL VS.. CAPITAL.

The clash is not always be.
tween capital and labor nor are
laboring men. organized or I'M
organized, the only class who
wantonly destroy property. The
history of the past will show
that capital, represented by
great magnates or corporations,
does not hesitate at times to use
the weapons of the mob against
rivals in business.
A notable instance OF this
character appears in the ST.
Louis Post Dispatch of last Sat,
urday. Lack of space forbids
details but the following terse
paragraph tells the tale. 1t
reads:
5000 MEN,
Employed by the Pennsylvania
Railroad, have been engaged
for two days in chopping down
the telegraph poles and cutting
the wires of the Western Union
along $500 miles of railroad
track in Pennsylvania, New
Jersey and other states. This
is the Pennsylvania 5 revenge
on George Gould for pushing
the Wabash Railroad into Pitts.
burg. Sixty thousand poles
have been felled and 5000
miles of wire made useless"
This action of the Pennsyl.
vania railway company-the
wanton destruction of million
dollars worth of property-is
vandalism pure and simple and
just as much without lawful ex.
cuse as are the acts of any mob,
no matter OF what material
formed.
The trouble in this particular
case is said to have grown out
of the building of part of the
Gould system of railroads into
Pittsburg and thus coming into
competition with the Penn.
sylvania road. In this move
George j. Gould was backed by
Andrew Carnegie and John D.
Rochefellow, and so the Penn.
sylvania system, powerful as it
is, is up against a hard PROPOSE,
ton. 1t is war between tinan-
cial giants and if each side in
the outcome was reduced to the
physical condition that labor
is generally left in at the end of
such contests the country would
not grieve much over it.
Capital should take it's own
medicine-the mixture it pre-
pares for la bor--labelled
