HOUSE OBJECTS
TO TARIFF BOARD
Proposed S25O,OOO Appropria-
ton Stricken From Sum
dry Civil Bill

WASHINGTON, May 2S.-After an
extended debate, the $250.o00 appro-
priation to defray the expenses of
tariff board, recommended by the pre-
ident was stricken from the sundry
civil appropriation bill in the house
today. This action followed a decision
by Representative Mann of Illinois,
who was in the chair, sustaining a
point of order made by Fitzgerald of
New York, who contended there was
no law authorizing such an appropri-
alton.
To meet the objection to the tariff
board. on the part of many democrats
and some republicans, Tawney pro-
posed another amendment which appro-
priated $250,000, practically for the
same purpose with the added provision
that it was "to enable the president
to give to congress information of the
state of the union and recommand to
their consideration such measures as he
shall Judge necessary and expedient,'
etc.
Under this wording of the measure,
it is understood the president could
send to congress any information which
may be collected under the proposed
appropriation. By leaving out of the
amendment all reference to the tariff
DOdTQ, WHICH already cXlSIS, 1t was
hoped the provision would come within
the rules of the house and would not
be subject to a point of order
Representative Fitzgerald promptly
made a point of order against the new
amendment and, pending his argument
upon it, the house adjourned until to-
morrow.
Refuse to Sign Caucus
About a dozen republican members
of the house, all insurgents" so far
as is known, refused to sign the call
for the party caucus on the postal saw
ings bank bill
The call has been issued for Wednes-
day night The petition upon which
the call is based contained the names
of about 10 republican members.
Among the number who refused to
sign the scall were Norris and Hen
shaw of Nebraska and Haugen of
Iowa
The call was not presented to Poin-
dexter of Washington and one or two
other insurgents whose names are
familiar in opposition to programs
formed by the regular" wing of the
party.
The insurgents base their action on
their desire not to be bound by the
result of a secret caucus as they pre-
ferred to see the bill considered on
the floor of the house.

Makes Valuable Selection.


Corson County IS. d. Chief: A.
Schiller, of New Ulm. MINI, assistant
cashier of the Brown County Bank in
that city, was the first homesteader to
file near Mcintosh. Mr.. Schiller held
No. 4s and made his selection at Aber-
deem late Monday afternoon. Hischoice
was the southwest quarter OF 20-23-233,
about three miles northeast OF McIn-
tosh, the land being appraised at 5000
per acre. He took the train Monday
evening for Mcintosh and upon arriv-
ing here Tuesday morning drove out
to see the quarter section in the fore
noon. At noon he left for Lennon to
make entry at the land office. Mr..
Schiller has made arrangements to
have the quarter nearly all broken up
and seeded to flax this season. He
will establish residence on his claim
during the early fall. This gentleman
showed excellent judgment IN his
choice, and the fact that he located SO
near Mcintosh right in the midst OF
the Timber Lake and Firesteel excite
ment shows that he is possessed of
keen foresight and realizes the advan-
tages of being located near the leading
town on the main line west Of the river.
The Chief believes that the ultimate
outcome will show that he made the
best choice during the first day OF Sc
lecting. The manner IN which he is
starting to dc things sounds good to
Mcintosh people and the more home
steaders of his type who locate here,
the better it will be for everybody.
