Short skstohss Of incidents and Epi-
sodss that MARI the Progress Of
Events at the National Capital.
Omaha daily bee., 1909-06-30

Judging by the talk about the capitol"
writes the correspondent Of the Brooklyn
Eagle, Serene e. Payne, chairman OF the
COMMITTEES on ways and means, will fight
very hard in conference for the substance
OF the Payne bill. Mr.. Payne Is under
stood to feel that the country approves
the main provisions of the Payne rather
than of the Aldrich bill. In some in
stances, as gloves and hosiery. defects
were engrafted upon the Payne bill
against the protests of the author. Now
that the people have spoken, Mr.. Payne
will feel warranted In c~ontending for a
bill which he honestly believes to be fair.
The ruthlessness Of Aldrich in tariff-mak-
ing stand out in sharp distinction to the
fairness and breadth of Payne, which. It
may be said, have been something of a
revelation to many OF his colleagues as
we'll as the country. Whatever measure
goes through, 1t will bear the name of
Payne; and the Auburn statesman is de-
termlned to put the best that is in him
into his browning work in congress.
while many of the dis~agreements in the
two bills are being quietly harmonized IN
advance, on some questions there can be
no retreat for one side or the other. Mr..
Payne is not friendly to the plans for
special taxation, but may be overpowered
by presidential influence. He always has
believed In free hides and he is con-
WINGED, also, that only a revenue duty. II
any at all, should be imposed on lumber.
His maximum and minimum plan differs
radically from that OF Mr.. Aldrich, but no
doubt the Aldr1ch plan will be deemed
preferable.
The essential difference between the
Payne and Aldrich bills was that Mr..
Payne did not hesitate to put certain raw
materials on the free list, thus permitting
corresponding reductions in the duties on
manufactures This was specially note
worthy Of hides and leather and iron ora
and the more crude manufactures of iron
and steel. The Aldrich amendments are
written obviously In the interest of the
great aggregations OF organized capital.
while the ways and means committee was
guided more by actual economic condl-
lions. Many senators who have voted
steadily for the Aldrich amendments ara
saying privately that the bill will be res,
sonably satisfactory to the country when
the conference committee gets through
with It."

HARLAN AND MOODY
ARE IN ILL HEALTH
Believed Supreme Court Will
Open With Two Va.
cant Seats.

That the Supreme Court of the United
states IS likely to meet in October with
two Of its members absent on account
Of Ill health is the report that mas
reached Washington. Justice Moody, as
Is well known, has been iIl and II is not
likely he will be able to sit on the bench
when the October term opens. Reports
here are that Justice John NJ Harlan
also is in in health and that he may
conclude TO take a trip 10 California m
order TO recuperate instead of trying to
resume his court work in October.
At the home of Justice Harlan here, IL
was said today, no recent word from
him had been received and that he was
at his summer home at Murray Bay.
Justice Harlan is In his seventy
seventh year and long since past the
age of retirement. Many rumors have
been started in recent years that he
would retire. but he has refuted them
by resolutely sticking 10 his post.
Ihe retirement of Justice Harlan now
would mean that President Taft would
have a member of the Supreme Court
to name For this position, various
prominent lawyers have been mentioned.
Governor Hughes Of New York is one.
Justice Lurton Of Tennessee is another
and several others are in the ii5t Of
possibilities.

the support OF Bryan and his follow
ers.
While Governor Harmon belongs to
the conservative end of the Democratic
party rather than the radical end, IL
is believed that Bryan would support
him Those who know the inwardness
OF tive campaign last fall know that
Bryan heartily supported Harmon for
governor OF Ohio and also know that
Harmon supported Bryan. Bryan and
HartGOn toured Ohio together and spoke
10 enormous audiences. 1t is likely Bry-
an would indOrSe Harmon and 80 is al
most a certainty he would not indorse
Governor Johnson, OF Minnesota Gov
ernOr johnson showed little disposition
10 support the Bryan campaign last fall
and when he was asked TO 80 to New
York and speak for Eryan he refused.
The Nebraska candida e and his friends
are not likely to neglect a chance to
take revenge on Governor Johnson.
Governor Marshall Is Strong.
OF course. there are dark horses. Gov
ernor Marshall, OF Indiana, may be one.
But Harmon is just now I'm strong
position. If nominated, he would have
the support of Eastern and Southern
Democrats. and II Bryan came to his
backing he would have those Of the
Wes-. BESIDES. he would be strong in
Ohio, though he would find IT very diff
ferent trying 10 get the electoral vote Of
Ohio with Mr.. TAFT q candidate than
trying 20 get the election as governor.
AS viewed pretty generally here. things
are shaping up for the denomination OF
President Taft. If the Western trip
proves a success, and he Is heartily re-
ceived, Il will he lOlSed on as assured.
il is true. the Roosevelt shadow is not
entirely lifted from the Presidential
landscape. Everyone knows he has a
tremendous personal following. And
there is good reason to believe that some
of the political advisers about President
Taft are not q little concerned about the
return OF Roosevelt to the United States
They are wonderin what the effect Of
his return is going to be, and whether
there will be an upheaVal OF popular
feeling that will lead to his being seTi-
ously considered as Presidential fac
tor in 1912. or course, Il goes without
saving, that some OF the strong friends
OF Mr. Roosevelt are not going TO omit
any chance to force him into the 1912
situation This has been apparent from
the day he left office on the Fourth Of
March. That they will take definite
stems before many months pass by 70
Law the plans Tor a demonstration, when
he does get back to this country, and
one OF gigantic proportions r. looked on
here as certain. From this time forth,

renominate Mr.. Roosevelt will be ST.

The arrival IN Washington OF Senator
Robert L. Taylor Of Tennessee, fresh
from the ChatauQua circuit in the mid
die West, bearing a Presidential boom
for Senator Culberson OF Texas, has
caused Democratic politicians TO sit up
and take notice and TO discuss with
animation the way things are shaping
40 for the Presidential campaign OF 1912.
II is true the next Presidential cam
paigu Is goodly distance away. but
then &c is also true that Presidential
candidates are made as rule long be
fore tho date Of their nomination.
Tho suggestion or Senator Culberson
Tor the Democratic nomination is gen
orally looked on by politicians here as
largely an expression Of Senatorial re-
gard for senator Culberson by "Fiddliug
Boo" The Texas senator IS the Demo
cratic leader I'm the Senate and as such
and on personal grounds is held in high
esteem by the Tennessee Senator. This
is not the first time Senator Culberson
has been suggested Tor the Democratic
nomination. He has been, in fact, re

ps jgns. His colleague. Senator Bailey.
has also been much mentioned in

but the outlook now Is that a South

is quite likely one Will be named tor

IS not nominated. the question is what
Northern Democrats now are on the I'm
side track. Just at present, the omens
