LEVER COTTON BILL
ADOPTED By HOUSE
Futures Measure Passed as an
Amendment to Pending Agri-
cultural Bill.

Washi gton, April 2S.-The Lever
cotton futures bill was adopted by
the house late today by an over
whelmirg vote as an amendment to
the pending agricultural bill.
The bill is a slight amended du-
plicate of the one held unconstitu-
tional by the New York federal court
last year because as a revenue meas
ure it did not originate in the house.
The house today, sitting as a COM
mittee of the whole, adopted the Lev
er cotton futures bill as an amend
ment to the anGual agricultural meas
ure after a spirited debate. The vote
was 101 to %. The Lever bill is
identical with the former cotton fu-
lures law, which was held unconsti-
tutional by Federal Judge Hough Of
New York on the ground that it was
a revenue bill which had improperly
originated is the senate instead of in
the house
Under the provisions Of the meas
ure tax of two cents pound would
be levied on all cotton sold for fu
ture delivery in any excange, board of
trade or similar institutions or
places of business
Adoption of this measure came af-
ter the house had passed, by vote
of 1874 to Sc, a special rule providing
for consideration of the cotton future,
grain trading and federal warehouse
for agricultural products amend
NESTS as a rider on the agricultural
appropriation measure. Under the
rule a little more than five hours
debate on the amendment was per-
mitted.
Adoption of the rule was denounc-
ed by Representative Lenroot of Wis
co-sin as "gag rule" He declared
the democrats were forcing the
amendment through to please the
South because they know they would
not control the next congress"
Cotton is king Continued Mr.. Len
root. 1.-THE South is in the saddle. 1t
is willing to destroy every safeguard
of the house where cotton is con-
cerned."
"The people want this legislation
and they do rot care tinker's damn
now they get it," declared Chairman
Lever of the agricultural committee,
in reply to republican protests
against the special rule.
Representative Harrison Of Missis-
sippi said the Republican attacks
were in line with their usual efforts
to delay legislation.
The agricultural bill will be pas
sed tomorrow.

In view Of the fact that there is a
good deal of misapprehension as TO
where we stand and as to what we
are working for, took the liberty
to ask the editors of our local papers
to publish our platform. We do not
want to take the place of men at the
ballot box, we want to take our own
place. We do not want their jobs,
we want our own jobs, but We do
want to help them to bring about
some very much needed reforms ia
the interest Of women. If women
alone had the ballot they would neg
lect mems rights, just as the men
re now neglecting our rights so We
need to work together for the com
mon good Of all.
