In closing
The detection of the progressive repub-
licans and their evident intention gener-
ally to support the democratic measure
provided the greatest interest.
An effort was made by the minority
leaders to ascertain just how far this de-
lection had spread, but with small sue
cess. 1t was generally conceded that a
vote for the bill or lend their negative
support by declining to vote against it.
Says Bill Is Constitutional.
Representative Clayton of Alabama,
chairman Of the judiciary committee. de-
clared that the bill was constitutional
and would be so held by the Supreme
Court as now constituted. He was fol-
lowed by Representative Lttleton of New

tailed analysis of the measure as to its
constitutionality.
He held the decision Of the Supreme
Court that an income tax was unconsti-

|DR. 0RME TELLS HOW
ALIENS HELD HIM Up
He and Wife, Stopped on vir-
ginia Road, Were Later
Entertained at Dinner.
"Who comes there?"

VINO comes Inere!
The inquiry rang out clear on the chill
air near Hillsville, Va. several evenings
ago. when DR.. A. s. Orme, father of the
juvenile court" and his wife. travelling in
q Gospel wagon. drove near the home of
Sidna Allen, in that section.
Are you friends or foes?" came the
second inquiry, Immediately following the
first one. and then DR.. Orme saw several
1.-the forms bearing Winchesters leap
from shadows and come down to his
wagon.
He, explained his business was travelling
through the country visiting jails and
almshouseS, and the Aliens, who had met
him in Sch hostile fashion, asked him to
their home for the night Thus repre-
sentatives of the clan that killed Judge
Massie and wiped out practically the
whole court at Hillsville the other day,
gave Of their hospitality to the travelling
missionary and his wife.
DIR. and Mrs. Orme are in Washington
today, paying visits to the various courts
and inquir1ng generally into their condl-
tions In speaking of the hospitality of
the Aliens they said they were SHOWN
the greatest courtesy.
DR.. Orme was at the Police Court early
today and spent some time In converse
ton with Judge Mullowny. He called al
the Juvenile Court Saturday and DIS
cussed the work there with Judge De
Visited 1900 Jails.
The Ormes have visited more than 1,S0O
jails, LOCO almshouses and 100 state pris-
ons. and in their deductions say that
nine-tenths Of the prodigal sons and err
ing daughters come from Christian
homes. They believe that the parents
should at all times seek the genuine con-
fidence of the child and make 1t feel that
they are it's best friends, on whom 1t can
rely during every situation that may
arise
In order to win this confidence, they
say, the parent must be frank in re-
spending to the natural inquiries of the
child and must divine the unspoken
question at the right time, answer 1t
clearly and in a manner that will in
vite further questions.
Dr. Orme deplored the disappear
ance of the home girl" She is the
same girl who in years past helped her
mother in the family domestic duties
and he declared that today she is in
the moving picture theater, promenad-
ing, at card parties or other social
functions when much OF this time so
spent should be in her home where the
hard -laboring mother could be greatly
aided by her Efforts.

SAYS FOREIGN WORKERS
DRIVE OUT AMERICANS
Senator Simmons Urges an H.
Iiteracy Test for lmmi-
grants to United States.

Vast hordes Of low-waged workmen
from foreign countries rushing into
the United States to drive out of work
American workmen were pictured be-
fore the Senate this afternoon. Senator
Simmons was urging an illiteracy test
for immigrants. to be provided in an
amendment he has offered to the Dill
ingham bill for the general revision Of
the immigration laws.
Nearly $4,000 of the immigrants who
came to American shores last year, Sena-
tor Simmons maintained, were unskilled
laborers.
"They are brought here by the steam
ship lines for employment In the indus
tries of this country, where they soon
drive out the native and the older immi-
grant employees and constitute practically
the entire force Of unskilled labor in
many lines of industry in the sections of
the country where they are distributed
Mr.. Simmons continued.
Average Wage Earnings.
"a study made by the immigration
commission Of 5000 wage-earners in all
parts Of the country shows that the
average wage earnings Of the native
American Is $2.43, while that Of the re-
Gently arrived immigrant is $1.5S, those
$3.50
Il do not believe that anybody is in
terested in bringing this ignorant horde
here except the great corporations, who
want cheap labor and oftentimes are in
different as to where they get 1t, and the
steamship companies. who want the
profits accruing from their transportation,
with little regard for the consequences to
this country. These are largely response
BILE for their coming. Profit is the motive
on their part for bringing them. The
motives of the average immigrant Of the
nationalities have referred to in coming
here are not the motives which promoted
the old immigrant settlers.
Generally speaking, their motive in
coming is not to become citizens. Only
small per cent of those representing
some of these nationalities ever become
naturalized. Many Of them come with
the fixed purpose of soon returning te
their old homes They come for purely
economic reasons. They are brought
here for the purpose of competition with
American labor, and the competition
which follows is q competition which
tends to unsettle the wage and living
conditions of American laborers and pre-
vent wanted betterment in their con.

BELL SAVED MAI. RAY,

Gen. Luke E. Wright. Secretary of War

paymaster. U. s. A, passed responsibility
for Maj Rays escape of court-martial
to former chief of staff, Gen. J. Franklin
Bell Gen. Bell now is in Manila. ,
Gen. Wright's recollection of the Ray
matter was faulty. He remembered the
man, knew of charges made against him
and had extended Rays tour of duty in
the United States during the campaign OF
1908 because of the necessity for an
operation on Maj. Rays wife, he said.
In all of these actions he was Influenced
by Gen. Bell.

Talked With Roosevelt.

The committee pressed Gen. Wright fol
an admission that orders issued by the
chief of staff are in reality the orders OF
the Secretary of War.
They are in theory, but not in reality
said Gen. Wright.
He said that once he talked with Presi-
dent Roosevelt about Maj. Ray and the
President said Ray should be returned to
the Philippines.
Gen. Wright was positive that he never
had talked about Ray with President
Taft He said he knew of Maj. Ray s
political work in Chicago. having read of
it in the newspapers, and that he told
Ray to keep out of politics"
Gen. Wright stated that the gravity of
the charges against Ray had not been
impressed on him. He avoided assuming
responsibility for the return of the papers
from Manila and their suppression in the
War Department.

Knew of Difficulties.

The chief Of staff introduced Maj Ray
to him when that officer asked to remain
in the United States. Gov. Wright gave
Maj. Ray five or six weeks more time.
The chief of staff also consulted with
Gen. Wright over the charges against
Maj. Ray.
Gen. Wright said he knew that Maj
Ray was at loggerheads with his depart
ment chief, Paymaster Col Wallace. The
charges, he said, consisted of putting his
steamship fare from Manila to Iloilo. So
or $40, in his expense account when
transportation had been furnished him
Maj Rays explanation was that clerk
had done this under a Misrepresentation
Gen. Wright said that he did not regard
those charges as sufficiently serious ia
keep Maj. Ray in Manila and had ordered
that he be permitted to proceed to Hawaii
to pay off the troops.
