AN EXCITING DISCUSSION
Publishers PreSs1

Washington, May 29.-There was
an unusual sequel in the House this
afternoon to the unusual scene of yes
terday when, in order to secure a
quorum, officers of the House went
out and arrested five Democrats and
three Republicans and brought them
before the Speaker for being absent
while the House was in session
AS soon as the journal was read,
Mr.. McCleary asked unanimous con-
sent to expunge from the records all
mention of the arrest of the mem
bers. Objection was made by Mr..
Murphy of Missouri. There followed
a stormy discussion in which two of
the members who had been arrested
explained why they had been taken
into custody. Floor Leader Payne
made speech insinuating that some
members were fortunate in never
having been arrested for being alb
sent and stating that it was the
sworn duty of every member to be in
his seat while the House was in ses-
sion.
Mr.. Gaines of Tennessee, and Mr..
Rucker of Missouri strongly intimat-
ed that discrimination had been
shown by the officers of the House in
aresting more Democrats than Repub-
licans. He explained that he had
been in the House all day and left
late in the afternoon to go up town
to inquire after sick relative.
OImsted's Motion Lost.
Mr. Olmsted of Pennsylvania, NOV
ed to expunge from the journal all
reference to the arrest of members.
His motion was lost. Later in the day
Mr.. Murphy of Missouri, arose to a
question of highest personal privi
lege" After explaining that he was
arrested at his home at O'Clock for
being absent from the House. he
read from the rules to show, he said
that the Speaker of the House jim issu,
ing a warrant for his arrest had nc
authority for such action under the
the land. or under the constitution
He argued that the Speaker only is
sue such a warrant when instructed
to so do by majority of the House.
Speaker Cannon got unanimous
consent to make an explanation OF
his action. He said that he was un
der the opinion that he had perfect
right TO issue such warrant. and he
was acting according to precedent
when he did so.
However," he said, this is bar
ren question. Whether or not the
Speaker had a right to issue such e
warrant the gentleman was legally

WILL USE 800 LIGHTS
FESTIVITIES AT EARLHAM
1t Is Expected that Even More People
Will Attend Exercises at College
Saturday.

Not satisfied with the triumph they
gained, and at the earnest solicitation
of their many friends, the authorities
who had. charge of the May Day at
Earlham last Saturday, have made
arrangements to have the festivities
repeated Thursday night on the col.
lege campus. The campus will be
brilliantly lighted by five hundred
electric lights.
Although the event held last Sat
day, by far surpassed anything held
like it among the Western colleges, it
is thought that the festivities Thurs
day night will be much more elabo-
rate with night setting. The scene
will no douot be the prettiest ever
seen here, as the gorgeous costumes
worn by those taking part in the event
will show to a greater advantage at
night, and will be appreciated more
by the spectators. owing to the unique
ness of the occasion.
1t is thought that even a larger
crowd, than that which witnessed the
ceremonies last Saturday, will be pres.
ent Thursday night.

REVIEW OF CONCERT.

The first half of the the evening
concert was given to a performance

This work was performed for the
first time at the Rhemish Festival

produced a great sensation and it

trail introduction leading into the first
full chorus Praise his awful name,"
which was attacked by the chorus
with great precision and sung finely
throughout. The high standard thus
set was maintained throughout the
entire work. The quality of the
voices In the "Sanctus' was especial

the work closes. The work of the
chorus was certainly on a much high

commendation. Also, the audience
was much better pleased which would

Rev. John A. Burnett Turned
Down Because He Uses
Tobacco.
NOMINATIONS PRESENTED
FEW. w. w. LAWRENCE MADE SEC.
RETARY OF YOUNG PEOPLES
SOCIETY, IN PLACE OF aEv. Mr..
BURNETT.

The first sensational procedure of
the entire session of the General AS
sembly Of the United Presbyterian
church, came yesterday afternoon
when the assembly, by a decisive vote
emphatically turned down the recon-
mendation of the committee on nomi-
nations, that the Rev. John A. Bur,
nett, of Monmouth, III, should be
made general secretary of the Young
Peoples Society.
On the ground that the Rev. Mr..
sembly took the view that he was not
the proper man to n, at the head of
this organization of young people, and
substituted the name of the Rev. w. W.
Lawrence, of Bellevue, Ill.
The Report Presented.
1t was late in the afternoon when
Moderator McClurkin called for the
report of the committee of nomina-
tions, which for several days had been
at work selecting the men who should
serve on various church boards and as
officers of church organizations of one
sort and another
Upon the conclusion of it's reading
Moderator McClurkin asked whether
it was the pleasure of the Assembly
that the report should be adopted or
whether there were amendments to be
offered.
Objection Is Made.
One of the delegates arose and Of
fered the motion that the name of the
Rev. w. w. Lawrence be substituted
for that of the Rev. John A. Burnett,
as president of the Young Peoples So
ciety No explanation was made as
to the cause of this action, but there
was almost. Immediately a second to
the motion.
The chairman of the nominations
committee said, before the motion was
put, that when the committee was con-
sidering the question of proper men
for the various offices there had been
some objection offered to the Rev. Mr.
Burnett because of some personal
habits but that a majority of the
committee could not see why this
should interfere with his being select
ed. At this stage. the Rev. r. w. Ma
rim, of College Springs, Pa, was grant
ed the floor by the moderator and he
made a short and vigorous plea in be-
half of the motion to substitute the
name of the Rev. Mr.. Lawrence for
that of the Rev. Mr.. Burnett.
What Church Demands.
The United Presbyterian church,
said the Rev. Mr.. Marin, demands
that the man who is to be the head of
the Young Peoples Society shall set
the highest example of purity and a
man who uses tobacco cannot do this. .
There was loud and prolonged cheer
ing when the Rev. Mr. Marin con-
cluded, and when silence had been re.
stored, Moderator McClurkin put the
motion. The volume of voices be-
hind the word aye left no doubt as
to the sentiments of the vast majority
of delegates, though there were num-
bers of the delegates who voted
no"
The Motion Prevails.
THE ayes seem to have it, said
DR.. Moderator McClurkin, and then
after a slight pause he declared,

A STATEMENT is MADE
SAY THAT IF DECAYED'
MEATS ARE SOLD ANY PLACE
THEY WANT TO FIND 1T OUT AT

[Publishera Press1

=
Chicago, May 29--Packers deny as
to be contained in the Neill-Reynolds
report concerning the condition under
which meats are slaughtered and
handled They invite the govern
ment to appoint a congressional COM
mittee for the inspection of their
plants. I'VE have never concealed
anything about our operations de-
clarew r. c. McManus, representative
of Swift & Co.
"On the contrary the packers keep
open house all the time and their
work is done under an actual inspec
tion of the public. The big packing
houses pride themselves on their
cleanliness. If any of the charges
made were true no one should be
more glad to welcome government in
spection and cooperation in securing
sanitary conditions. The packing
plants have outgrown their present
sanitary outfit and are daily enlarg-
ing the capacity for carrying away
refuse"
THE packers are agreed that if the
government will appoint a sanitary
engineer who will devise a system to
more effectively procure sanitation
they. will gladly act upon his recon-
mendations even to building an ex-
pensive system of sewers. The
charges in the main are preposterous
and untrue. If decayed meats were
allowed to be sold anywhere the gov
ernment would find no more willing
aids than the packers in stamping
out such an evil"

for the disease. Dr. J. ~ Hurry, OF
Indianapolis, has consented to come
and address a Richmond audience and
assist in the organization of the new
association. The date for his appear.

will be early in June, and in all prob
ability, next week.
The proposed association will not
be under the especial care of any
church or any doctor of doctors, as ii

the general public. 1t will be organ

charge of different branches of the
work of fighting the disease which
causes one out of every four deaths
in this city.
DR.. Hurry is full of his subject and

rately the different stages of the dis
ease. DR.. T. Henry Davs is arrang

Washington, May 29.-Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor, is preparing a
synopsis of the views of all the rep

that privilege cannot be exercised by
labor when corporate interests

A movement to organize a Umatil-
la county Commercial club of De-
velopment league to be composed Of
all the commercial organizations in
the county is now being promoted.
Owing to the fact that many east
ern people are now looking toward
Oregon and that the cheap excursion
and tourist rates will soon go into eff
feet it is deemed advisable by the
commercial bodies of the different
towns in the county to make some
united, concerted and systematic eff
fort to attract settlers to this county
With a county organization work.
ing to this end it is thought that
much more can be accomplished thar
by each commercial body working
alone in the matter. Each part of
the county has various attractions and
advantages to advertise and by con.
bining in the work of circulating lit
erature and inviting capital to come
to the county much more can be gain
ed than for each town to worry along
in its own way.
So far as canvassed the commercial
bodies of Adams, Weston, Athena,

cooperate with the Pendleton Com
mercial association in the formation

You can not make sweet butter In a
