WHAT Is the answer? not that the
republicans under the leadership of
Speaker Cannon and Messrs. Payne
and Dalzell will bring in any impor-
tat measures. but that by their con
troll of the house they will bring in
a rule of order which will prevent
the democrats from interfering with
the trivial business the republicans
are willing to transact That is a
very insufficient response. AS Mr..
Williams said this morning "Why. II
they do not visa delay DO they not
discharge business. In house and
senate the republicans have a major
ity which would make il absolutely
pede any public business. The min
Gritty will not attempt to delay such
bills as the employers liability bill,
the bill for the reduction or the aboli-
ton of the duty on wood pulp. the
eas to correct the recent labor
decisions by the United States SUI
preme court, the national publicity
bill and other measures of national
importance. But as it cen to be
the program of the majority to set
these important national measures
aside, while they pass upon trivial
ties like private pension bills and
racing laws, the democrats in the
minority have determined to fight all
action until the greater things are at
tended to.

season for action this year. 1t Is one
of the most beautiful bluffs ever put
up by a politician in the house. That
it is unworthy of the speaker of the
house of representatives goes without
saying. How unworthy it Is shown
by the fact that the speaker himself
and the twelve republican members
on the committee on ways and means
have absolutely refused to permit a
bill putting wood pulp and print pa
per on the free list. If the republi-
cans are not willing to do this. any
request of theirs for an investigation
must be regarded as a mere device to
postpone the issue until too late for
it to be of use.

CURRENT TOPICS AT CAPITAL
CANNON'S EFFORT..FIuBUSTER.

Washington, Apr. 5-Special-The
first real promise of action against the
paper trust was made Thursday when
Speaker Cannon left the chair and
himself introduced resolutions direct
ing the department of commerce and
labor to enquire into the eX~ortionate
charges made by the trust for print
paper.
Speaker Cannon of course Is the
head of the stand-patters. His in
huence has been exerted against the
%re-opening of the tariff question in
any way, even by reducing the duty
on print paper or upon wood pulp.
His presentation of these resolutions
will greatly increase the agitation in
congress for free paper and free pulp.
Not that anybody believes that his
purpose was to have the resolution
passed or to have the information de-
livered to congress in season for any
action at this session. Rather II is
that the speaker being himself a
candidate for the presidency, and
recognizing the fact that the newspa-
pers OF the United States are suffer
ing cruelty from the eXtortions of the
paper trust, resorted to the time worn
eXpedient of asking for an investiga'
ton the report OF which will come so
late that il cannot figure in the action
of the present session of the siXtieth
congress. Speaker Cannon has been

cumstances can the report OF the com
mission be presented to congress in

Democratic FiIibuster.

While there is much talk concern

fact of the matter Is that the system
attic filibuster has been conducted by
the republican majority in the house
of representatives and aided by
Speaker Cannon. 1ney are talking
now of adjourning on the Goth of
May, and yet not one committee has
reported any legislation of general
importance. What the democrats in
the house are trying to do now, and
what they are being denounced by
ignorant critics for doing, Is to stop
trivial legislation by the majority and
to compel important legislation. John
Sharp Williams has offered to the re-
publican majority the support of the
democratic side OF the house to put
into effect the presidents program

United Confederate Veterans will take
a hand in ~endeavoring to issue a

schools of this city, and county. The
subject under discussion of the meet

The commander Of the CAM will

moor comrade I'D Burnett addressed
his comrades on the subject and
made quite an impressive speech and
agreed with his other comrades that
now was the time for the veterans to
act and secure the teachings OF a
true history and not one that referred
to the Southern patriots as rebels.
In the absence of the regular ad-
jutant Maj. ID. NJ. Rumph acted. 1t is
the plan of the local camp to hold a
meeting every Sunday afternoon and
at each meeting some one or more
of the members will address the camp

WIVES IN ONE HOUSE.

Tulsa, Okla, April. 5.-John Carr
has been convicted Of polygamy in
the district court.
Cars career as a much married
man was extremely novel and inter
esting. But a boy he had taken unto
himself three wives and strangest
thing of it all was living with the
three in the same house, the group
apparently dwelling together in ut
most harmony. The charge of bigamy
under which Carr was tried and con
victed was preferred by the father
of one OF his wives. The young man
takes his conviction indifferently.

that it was a bill in the interest of
