SENATOR MONEY ON TARIFF.
Says Democrats should wait Until
Next Congress COnvenes.

Senator Money, OF Mississippi. minority
leader of the Senate, is in Washington.
He thinks the Democrats in the present
campaign should not undertake any tariff
legislation; that general tsrir revision
should ne deferred for the House in the
next Congress.
Senator Simmons, OF North Carolina,
who Is also in Washington. said yester-
day:
THE Democratic party has a great
responsibility. and. for one. believe that
the Representative OF the party in Con-
gress viii measure up 10 H. AS for
legislative programme. we should be
careful and go slow. All OF US are agreed
that the prohibitory and monopolistic
schedules in the present tariff law should
be written out OF the statute books.
Il am inclined TO agree with Senator
RayEer OF Maryland, in HIS suggestion
that the Representatives OF the party IN
Congress, together with such leaders as
Cows. Wilson. Harmon, Dix, Baldwin,
Foss, Marshall, Mayor Gaynor, and
others, should get together for a confer
ence and consider a plan OF action prior

Congress. or shortly after"

FINANCE MEMBERS OFFER
TAX LEGISLATION VIEWS

One Of the most interesting reports
laid before the Board OF Trade in its
meeting last night was that of the mu-
nicipal finance committee. dealing with
the bill now before Congress respecting
assessments or personal property.
Very unjustly." says the committee.
and contrary 10 the fact, the idea
seems TO prevail throughout this country
and in Congress that the people Of this
District are largely composed OF tax
dodgers. and escape the burdens Of tax
alton to which their felIow-citizens
throughout the country are subjected.
The assessed valuation of tangible per-
sonal property IN this District is in
excess Of 5000 COO, being larger than
iE number Of States OF both Tangible
and Intangible personal property
THE United States owns considerably
over 50 per cent OF the real estate of this
District. and it's holdings are constantly
largely increasing by means OF condennna-
ton OF land for public use, thus constant
~ lessenihg the quantity of real estate
assessed for taxation Notwithstanding
this, the statistics given in the census re-
ports show that the assessed value OF less
than one-half OF the real estate in this
District, in round numbers S2Ss 00O. 600,
is largely in excess OF the assessed value
OF all the real estate IN any other city of
the country OF approximately the same
population, and the per capita tax paid
here is without exception larger than in
any other city OF approximately the same
population.
And this Is so. Notwithstanding the
fact that these other cities are centers of
wealth and manufacturing industries,
while this city is not a wealthy city and
has no large manufacturing industries.
These are absolute facts, easily shown
TO De such.
Increase I'm Assessment.
In addition to this. we, call attention
to the fact that the board OF assessors
OF the District report that they have just
completed the new trienniaI assessment.
with the result that the existing assessed
value has been increased for the next
three years by the sum Of ssO.eoo.oOo.
we want II known throughout the
country, and by members Of the Congress,
that we are not a community of tax
dodgers. and that We are subjected 10 as
heavy burdens OF taxation as are the
people elsewhere.
The citizens Of this District recognize

MUSIC LOVERS SCARCE

Talking about art in Washington nat urally leads to music and the fasco of the May festival. It was planned by a prominent lady manager of such af- fairs to give a splendid series of four entertainments here with the aid of some of the most brilliant operatic stars of the operatic world, together with the entire Metropolitan Opera House or chestra of seventy men, the profits to become the nucleus of fund for a home of grand opera. But meager support was accorded by Washington and the enterprise ended with the first perform ance. The real lovers of music in the capital have been greatly chagrined over the affair, and the promoter of the festival was out considerable money. Mime. Olive Fremstad, who rushed in great haste from Atlanta to take part in the festival, was greatly annoyed. She said it was the third engagement she had lost this year in Washington.

snecial to fine Silver Belt.

Special to the Silver Belt.
 WASHINGTON, D. C., May H. When such distinguished body of men as the United States senate engages Tn the erudite pastime of art criticism, the country may feel well satisfied that it is going to receive enlightenment, in struction and edifcation. Should it also be entertained and amused, it may very well decide that it is getting rather more than it's moneys worth, for it is not the regular function of the sen ate to provide either entertainment or amusement. Still, there are senators who can provide one or the other, and some of the honorable gentlemen, in themselves and without reconciliation, are'both.
 The senate on May 3 passed the bu' reau of arts bill, sponsored by Senator Root of New York, and in the discussion regarding the form it should finally take there was some Illuminating and some diverting comment. Senator Hepburn of Idaho, a gentleman who primarily IS reputed to be an authority on mining law, but who incidentally is able and willing to give advice on anything else that happens to be under discussion, very pertinently remarked that "it does not follow that because a man IS senator of the United States he is devoid of information upon this sub iect.o Wherein almost everyone will coincide and truthfully add; Or upon any subject.
 Whether the action of the senate in rejecting the amendment proposed and urged by Senator Heyburn-who, as he said, could not sit silent and see a mat ter going through in which he felt as keen an interest, perhaps, as he did in any subject of legislation personally intimated that it did not think well of his judgment of the matter is perhaps neither here nor there. MT. Hepburn s amendment contemplated paying sala! ries to the men who will form the art commission to pass on statutes and sO forth in the District of Columbia. He wanted not merely men who will be "well qualified judges of the fine arts, '' but as the house bill had it, "artists of repute" on the commission. CT know men, said MT. Hepburn, "and so does every senator here, who think their houses are filled with fine arts Mir. Hepburn hoped it would never be again possible to have public building, which like the pension office, could be likened to a car barn, or one set with it's corner on the street. He hoped the capitol would never be filled with i'm. pressionist paintings, or with pictures representing one school of art He hint. ed that there were objects of "art'i in the canitOl which ba woe osbo.ol q With keen vision for possible pub. ne wrongs, Senator Burkett thought that the bill "opened the way for a good deal of possible wrongdoing and possibly graft and scandal.''

THE CENSUS

Already walls are beginning to as cend to heaven-and to the census bur eau-because the census enumerators have been unable to find as many peo- pie in various cities as those cities fond ly hoped to claim. From Portland, Ore, to Alexandria, Va, and from San Diego, Cal, to St. Augustine, Fla, the vail has gone forth that all the citizens were not counted. It is a pathetic tale, but even more sorrowful is the story of the many enumerators who, when they un- dertook to record the vastness of the population, were led to believe that the ten or twelve days work would net them at least $75, and who found that $40 was nearer the size of their pay checks. It was unfair, to say the least, for Uncle Sam to expect sever al hundred thousand of his boys to get in and ask all kinds of embarrassing questions of persons more or less sen sitive about such things, and then to de- fault, in a manner, on the pay. And Uncle Sam will hear good deal about it, before he is through with it all

produce as hardy and vigorous race as any part of America"
 The literature of the company quoted also refers to the fact that Alfred H. Brooks of the eGological survey in March last supplied data from which it was estimated that the total wealth of Alaska is $1,513, 1885, 100000. That means that if the population of the United States is 1O0,000,000 each inhab- itant has an interest in Alaska equiva- lent to more than $1s,000. This may sound fabulous, but as matter of fact the wealth of Alaska is being taken out of the territory now at the rate of $30,000,0O0 yearly, which is a pretty good beginning, and the agricultural resources have not as yet been touched It should not be very long before Alas ka produces all of its own food supply, when it is considered that the terri tory is said to have a pasturage for 15,- 000,000 of cattle. The western ranges are shrinking year by year and even now are insufficient in size to meet the needs of the cattle men. Is it possible that Alaska is some day to furnish the rest of the nation with its beef?

Public buildings are given over to ar chitects sometimes, who have been SC lected in the same way. Many public men believe the time has arrived when the government should follow com mon sense plan in directing its public works. Of course, the bill as passed must go into conference, but it will probably pass in something like the form the senate gave it.

ROOSEVELT ON ALASKA

It is not strange that the fierce light which has beat on Alaska during the past year should have brought to the fore number of mining and explora- tion companies which are offering the public chances to become millionaires through the investment of few paltry dollars ip their particular schemes. Re- garding these especial chances to share in the millions of Alaskas wealth, the writer has nothing to say; he is not able to pass on the merits of any indi- vidual proposition for investment, but there is no doubt regarding the vast opportunities in Alaska for the adven- turous and enterprising. As one of the mining companies above referred to very appropriately recalls Ex-President Roosevelt in speech delivered in Se- attle in 1903, said:
 ''I predict that Alaska, within the next century, will support as large a population as does the entire Scandi- navian Peninsula. I predict that you will see Alaska, with her enormous re- sources of mineral, her fisheries and her possibilities that almost exceed belief
