Tawney.
 MARK SMITHS BIRTHDAY.
 Mark Smith created a sensation by his reply to Tawney. He was thor oughly wrought up and his utterances were dramatic in the extreme.
 MT. Speaker" said he, it seems somewhat tragic to me that the day of my birth should have been selected as the one day in the year for the sacrifice of the people in whose dovOt- ed service I have spent most of my life" Then advSncing towards Tawney and pointing his finger at him, he thundered: When I saw the chairman nf the appropriations committee take the floor in favor of this rule, I was reminded of another and much more tragic scene. And Joab said to Am asa, art thou in health, nay brother? And Joab took Amasa by the beard and with the right hand 10 kiss him. but Amasa took no heed to the sword that was in Joab's left hand. So he smot,e him there within the fifth rib, and shed out his bowels to the ground

Washington, Ian. 4--(SpeciaD- The big stick is still powerful. It drove a lot of supposed recalcitrant repub- Hcans into the so-called stalwart ranks today and the rule provid ing for joint statehood was damned through the house in short order. There was a majority for the administration of twenty-seven on the first roll caU, and thirty on the second one. Men who had pledged themselves to stand with MT. Babcock desterted him at the last moment through fear of the president of the United States.
 James A. Tawney of Minnesota, who had given the people of Arizona to understand that he would support their righteous cause,-was the most conspic- uous deserter. Not only did he vote as the president and the speaker de- sired him to, but he made a speech which many Arizonians should rcmem- Der.
 T am opposed to the admission of Arizona and New Mexico" he said,

The IrOnCldd JOinture Rule Was Adopted By a Vote of
 I92 to I6S

In the guise of friendship, he gives us the most savage, the cruelest cut of all.
 MT. Chairman this is not a party question. If it is, it is timo for any party, mine or yours, to hand down it's scepter to other people. When the rights of a people can be made the shuttle cock of party rule and when the great good heart of that republican majority today unhampered by your great power, unhampered by the pres ident of the United States, would beat this bill four to one, yet, men like the gentleman from Ohio, (Afr. Gros- venor) and other gentlemen arise and swing the party lash over the weak but give no reason whatever for this outrageous proceeding except alle- glance to party command. There was no caucus of the republican party on this question, the pretense of a eau GUS had, was a fraud on new members. Whenever the republican party or mine, can make the rights of men sub4ervient to the mere party lash, then that party deserves to be beaten snd will be beaten.'
 THE AVOWED MOTIVE.
 A feature of the proceedings was the frank admission of the republican leaders that the disinclination of the eastern republicans to give any more political power to the west was the prime motive in the attempt to fierce the jointure of Arizona and New Mex ico. Last night, and before the ses- sion opened today, all the influence the administration could bring to bear was exerted upon the recaIcitrants. It was plain to MT. Babcock when he looked around the house this morning that he was beaten. New York republicans, who had promised to remain away. were in their seats. Other New York CTS who had promised to vote with him avoided him. He took his medi- cine gracefully and made a foIceful speech in support of his position. There is no doubt here that the bill will be defeated in the senate. Several prominent senators have declared in the last few days that it cannot be- come a law. It may be taken fo. granted that. having won the first round, the president will not relax his 1 efforts to force the bill through. In all probability the final vote in the house on the measure will show a still stronger majority than was recorded today. The Arizona delegation will continue it's efforts to defeat the meas urc and every possible argument will : be placed before the senators.

Tawney, Davis, Madden and Dickson went back on us, but the bill will be killed in the senate or Ari- zona will be given the right to vote on the question separately Some in teresting speeches will be made to- morrow.
