Norfolk, Va, Feb. 1.-THE formal
opening of the Jamestown exposition
has beer set for April 26, 1907, in
stead of May IS, 1907, as originally

that the English settlers in the Lon
don company first debarked at Cape
Henry, Va, and in the desire to cele-
brate the 300th anniversary of that
event as well as the t~ercentennial of
the settlement at Jamestown May 10,
is found the reason for changing the
date Of the formal opening.

...". NbH.H HE.r.H.5
Washington, Feb. S.-By continuing
it's session practically to z O'Clock they
house concluded all preliminary steps
to the passage of the railroad rate
bill, ordered a roll call on the cas-
ure and put off the final action until
to-day at noon.
The time for amendment came at
4 o'clock, and for three hours follow
ing n amendment after another
came up, was read, debated in some
instances, and sent down to defeat.
So fierce was the struggle to amend
that often when a paragraph of the
bill was concluded in the reading, a
dozen members shouted for recogni-
tion and waved their amendments.
Not n of these was adopted.
Yesterday was the first time in
many years the senate chamber was
made the scene of an effort to adj
minister party discipline to a member
of that body, and the occurrence was
n of so many dramatic details that
the many witnesses will not soon for
get it. Mr.. Patterson was the subject
of the effort and Mr.. Bailey, to whom.
in the absence of Mr.. German, Demo
cratic leadership is conceded, was the
instrument of his party in the Incl
dent. The proceedings arose in con-
nection with the consideration of Mr..
Patterson's resolution of remon-
STRANGE against caucus action ~
treaties with foreign nations.
Mr.. Bailey's speech was based upon
the theory that all senators are under
obligations to obey. conscience rather
than caucus, but that in doing SO they
antagonize their party and should
hold themselves responsible to their
party. Mr. Bailey charged the senator
from Colorado with having been a
party to the adoption in a previous
caucus of the rule binding Democratic
senators to the two-thirds rule.

We are all Partners
Profits Derived from the Saloon and
Liquor Business by the
Government

News, recently, Tim McDonough, a
said:
There has been so much talk dur
ing the last few months in regard to
the liquor traffic that it has set me
thinking what should be done to take
that question out of politics, and why
something should be done.
Nov, I claim that the whole peo-
pie of this United States are my part
ners in the business of liquor selling,
of which I am actively engaged in,
and how (Why, l will tell them.)
Before I can engage in the business
Of liquor selling I must pay to the
government as a wholesale dealer the
sum of 500, and as a retail dealer
$25. Now, the government of the
United States is the people, and they
the people, get so much of my money,
that receiving part of the money accru-
ing from the business makes them
partners in the business, but that is
not all they receive. When the whisky
I sell is first distilled it is worth from
fifteen cents to twenty-five cents a gal
lon. Before I can sell it I must pay my
partners (the people, tax Of $1.10
gallon. Now, is that fair? They exact
from me four to six times the value of
the article I sell. Nor is that all.
Lager beer, which can be manufactured
from the raw material at a cost of
NJ,
charge and exact from me S. barrel
tax, and they (my partners), because
they are stronger, make me pay in ad-
vance. Were this all 1 might submit
without objections, but some of my
partners are not satisfied with this.
Those of them who live in Ohio come at
me and make me pay the sum of $3.50
a year. Even this I would willingly
submit to without murmur, did my
partners stop there. But no, some of
my partners here in Ohio are not sat
isfied; they want more and, as the
liquor traffic is the only stock in trade,
they keep the thing agoing all the time.
Now, let us see what my partners (the
people) derive from my business as a
retail dealer:
81 own $4,000 places In Ohio. I sell
on an average of one barrel of beer
in each place a day, and, as 1 pay
them 81 barrel that is $4,000 day,
or over 100000 a year. My whisky
sale is about half a gallon a day on an
average to each place, or 5000 gallons
per day for all. On that they charge
me tax of $6,6OO,0OO. Then step in
my partners from Ohio, who charge me
$3.50 a year on each of my $4,000
places, and collect from me over $4,-
100000; thus 1 pay to them over $10,
100000 year to do business in Ohio,
