Of campaign contributions by insur-
ance companies occupied the major
portion of the time % the Senate to-
day. 1t came up in connection with
Mr.. Tillman's resolution calling for
an investigation of national bank air
in politics and was exploited by the
South Carolina Senator in a speech of
some length. 1t was couched in
characteristic language and attracted
considerable attention. The resolu-
ton directing the Secretary of the
Treasury TO report whether the reports
of the national bankw examiners show
that the banks have made campaign
contributions in recent years was
adopted at the close of Mr.. Tillman S
remarks
Outlining his reasons for the in
quiry, Mr.. Tillman called attention to
the recommendation made by the
President in his annual messages of
1904 and 1905 for the enactment of a
law for protection against bribery ana
corruption i'm connection with cleo
tons. He quoted with especial en-
phasis the Presidents remarks con-
corning campaign contributions by
corporations. our chief executive
has taken a very progressive stand to
secure purity in elections" he said,
and added Every good American with
say, Well done and look for prog
reSs along that line. He also quoted
statements by Secretary Root and
Perry Belmont. of New York, of the
same tenor as the Presidents remarks
saying that he would be impartial as
between political parties.
He conceded that the Secretary
might not have the fects wanted. but
he thought he ought TO have. Incl
dentally Mr.. TilIman said that he had
been informed that the comptroller of
the currency has been investigating
the subject of bank contributions with
the view of instituting legal proceed,
ings.
Before Mr.. Tillman had proceeded
far Mr.. Gallinger, who had Yesterday
objected to the consideration of the
resolution at that time, said that he
had done so only for the purpose of
inspecting it, that he had done so, and
being entirely satisfied as to its pro-
pdiety would support the resolution.
