Washington, May 23. Practically
all hope of ship subsidy was aban-
doned yesterday when the house, by
vote Of 145 to 156 rejected the con-
ference report on the postoffice appro-
priation bill containing a provision
therefor, and on which the principal
fight was made. The bill was sent
back to conferences, and there now is
little prospect that the house con-
ferees will yield to the senate.
BY a strict party vote of $50 to 1875
campaign contribution publicity bill
with an amendment providing for a
reduction of representation in the
house in the Southern states was
passed. The Democrats voted against

Washington, May 26.-Working un-

to adjournment at the earliest posi-
BILE moment, the house yesterday dis
posed OF a great amount of business.
Early in the session it became mani

tanned between the majority and mi

bills were permitted to be passed by
unanimous consent. The sum total of
the days business was as follows:
The conference reports on the sun

to, and the following bills were pass

Amending the navigation laws; au-

encouraging the development Of coal

penalties against the sale of clothing

will believe that this could be done. Then Mr..
Roosevelt would be made candidate for a
third term despite his sincere and earnest eff
forts to prevent it. For as matters now stand
his nomination would be prevented by ceasing
opposition to the nomination of Taft.
Mr. Roosevelt being the republican nominee,
who would head the democratic ticket? MI.
Bryan has said that he and the president so
nearly agree now that the same political
garments fit both Then. as a matter of
principle, there would be little use of the
democrats nominating Mr.. Bryan. The reform
element Of the party would not feel that all
would be lost if he should fail to get the noml-
nation The conservatives would make
desperate effort to defeat him, and cause the
nomination of a conservative as they succeed
ed in having Judge Parker named In 1904
Should Taft be the republican nominee it Is
almost certain that he would be defeated.
The labor vote would 60 almost solidly against
him, and the reports that are being spread
now. that he has made himself entirely accept
able to Wall street. would cause him to lose
many votes. IF the two opposing tickets
should be Taft and Bryan, it would seem al
most certain that Mr.. Bryan would be elected.
Should Roosevelt or Taft get the republi-
nomination and Mr. Bryan be the demo
cratic nominee, would the conservatives try
to put ont a candidate of their own? This
seems reasonable to expect. Just as they put
out the Palmer and Buckner ticket in 1896
to help defeat Mr.. Bryan, so they may this
year be expected to put out ticket of their
own, if they fail to have a acceptable
to them nominated by either of the great
parties. If this should be done, with the re-
form vote split into many parties, ticket
on which the conservatives should unite would
stand good chance of being elected.
All this, Of course, is mere speculation. The
truth is that the political outlook is so chaotic
that nobody can foresee the result, and the
entirely unexpected may happen.

ANTITRUST BILL CAUSES SPLIT IN
REPUBLICANS.

Especial Dispatch to The Journal)
Washington, Maj 28-The Republicans Of
the house are on the verge Of bad split over
the Hepburn bill amending the Sherman anti
trust law Mr. Hepburn has his associates on
the committee on interstate and foreign com
merce of which he is chairman, sounding Re
publican members for the purpose Of ascer-
tanning how they would vote on a resolu-
ton to take the bill from the judiciary COM
mittee and refer it to the interstate com
merce committee
If it should develop that the resolution be
adopted by coalition Of insurgent Republi-
cans and Democrats there is no doubt of it's
introduction, unless Speaker Cannon would
change the reference Of his own volition. It
may be stated on absolute authority that the
Republicans who are working to take the bill
from the hands of the judiciary committee
are deferred from making an open move chiefly
through belief that Mr.. Williams, Democrat
ic floor leader, is so friendly to Speaker Can
non that he would not sanction Democratic
support of the resolution to change the ref.
erence which would be fiat rebuke Of the
speaker
But it is pretty we'll settled that the mass
Of the Democrats of the house would vote for
the resolution if given the opportunity, no
matter what was the attitude of the minority
leader When Mr.. Hepburn introduced his
bill after consultation with the president he
Endorsed 0n the back thereof "Referred to
the committee on interstate and foreign com
merce," but the speaker promptly changed
the reference and sent it to the committee on
judiciary.
Mr.. Hepburn was up in arms and laid his
grievances before the president yesterday aft
ernoon 1t is believed the president advised
him to look into the feasibility of having
the reference changed by resolution If such
a resolution should be adopted it would put
Colonel Hepburn in the race for the speaker
ship next time, especially if Secretary Taft
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1908-04-02

should be nominated and elected to the presi-
dency.
It is hardly conceivable that Mr. Taft, as
president, would exert his influence to retain
the gavel in the hands of man who is SO
strongly opposed to his nomination, not only
because Of the speakers candidacy for the
presidency but because of his intense oppo-
sition to the things for which Secretary Taft
and the president are popularity supposed to
stand.-At1anta Journal

tons made commercial panic in the near
future inevitable-and why? It's 200 pages are
filed with incontrovertible economic principles
and astonishing facts, sustained by figures from
the u S. Comptroller's Reports, and bank or
gans, proving that the deposit banking system
as it has been maneged in the past-is the
real cause of every commercial panic ever
known, and most of the periods of business de-
preston that have afflicted this country. And,
what is still more important, 1t shows how their
recurrence can be made impossible and the de-
mand for services and products made to always
equal the suppIy-without wronging any one, or
