PETITIONEO To RUN
Boom of Novel Sort Being
Worked Up for Former
President.
Special to The Globe.

Special to The Globe.
TAMAQUA, Pa, March 24.-Facts
have come to light here which point
conclusively to a boom for Grover
Cleveland for the presidential nominal
tfon Of the Democratic party in 1904.
Archibald c. Jones, a prominent Demo-
cratic politician OF New York state, has
been in this region of Pennsylvania for
the last few weeks quietly starting the
ball rolling. When seen today Mr..
Jones tacitly admitted that such a
movement was on foot, and he also
stated that 1t was the object to circu-
late petitions calling upon the former
president to accept the nomination,
and procure SO large number of sign
ers that Cleveland VIII feel it his duty
to accept the nomination should it be
rendered him.
The movement has been carried on
quietly up to this time, but now it is
stated that Mr.. Jones Is only one of a.
number Of quiet workers for Cleveland
for the nomination. 1t is learned that
prominent Democrats have been as
signed to the work in different parts Of
Pennsylvania, New England, Ohio, ILL
nois and other states in the Middle

Haugland Bill Providing De-
feated Code Plan for Taxa
tion of Public Service
Franchise Corporations
and Permanent Tax Com
missioner Is Passed.

Late yesterday afternoon the house
by vote of 73 TO "a passed the Haug-
land tax bill, which is a section of the
code presented by the late tax COM
mission.
The Haugland bill presents that por-
ton of the code defeated at the extra
session which provides Tor the assess
ment and taxation of public service
corporations, assessments of real estate
ana intangible personal property.
A Tax Commission.
The new feature of the bill is the
provision for the appointment of "a
single tax commissioner while the
original code provided for the appoint
ment of commission of three mem
bers.
The passage of the bill by so large a
majority was rather a surprise To
many members who expected 1t barely
TO squeeze through the house and meet
defeat in the senate. The Smith bill
which provides only for the appoint
ment of a permenant tax commission
with the idea of approaching tax re-
form gradually was n special order
yesterday to follow the Haugland bill
but was not considered. It's friends
had 1t tabled so that it can be taken
up after the Haugland bill is consider
ed IN the senate, and defeated.

TILLMAN LOUDLY
KISSED AT DETROIT
Audience Objects to Hearing Unior
Soldiers Called Bummers and
Chicken Thieves.

DETROIT, Mich, March 24.-United
States Senator Benjamin r. Tillman,
of South Carolina, was greeted by al
ternate storms of applause and Kisses
when he delivered an impassioned ad-
dress on the race problem tonight at
Light Guard armory. He said that
the North demanded majority rule and
with a sneer added that there were
235,000 more negroes than white peo-
pie in South Carolina.
1T Will mean that more blood will
flow than was shed in the Civil war
if you persist in trying to subject us
to the domination OF the blacks" he
said. You butchered the Indians and
shut out the Chinaman, but had it
been known by the soldiers who sur
rendered with Lee that it was your
devilish intent to set up the negro
over the white man we would have
fought up till now"
Upon the senator's reference to
some Of Sherman's army as bummers
chicken thieves and carpetbaggers his
Northern audience broke out into such
violent kissing that the speech was
interrupted and some of the more
timid ones in the audience feared trou-

JOG TEACHERS MEMORIES.
Contract Jumpers to Lose Their
Teachers Certificates.

Senator JOhnsons bill to prevent
school teachers jumping their con-
tracts was recommended for passage
in the senate yesterday afternoon after
hard fight. The bill provides that
any teacher neglecting to remember
that he or she has signed a contract
with school board shall lose his or
her teachers certificate.
Senator Putnam declared that ii was
picking the teachers out from all the
people of the state. The present law
was bad enough. The new law made
criminals Of the teachers Under the
present law the board is able to dis
charge the teacher without fear of a.
suit for breaking the contract and the
proposed law would make all this more
one-sided, as it made the teacher liable
to forfeit a chance to work for six
months at the least
Senator Johnson explained that his
measure was merely intended to pre-
vent teachers signing contracts with
boards and then overlooking them at
the last minute, leaving the boards
confronted with several vacant posi-
tions the day the fall term Of school
opened
