CUMMINS ATTACKS
CAUCUS -METHODS
Senator. Says Secrecy Makes
for Inaudible and Invisible
Government.
TARIFF DEBATE IS OPENED
President Criticised for Using In
fluence Coercrvely; "Tariff for
Revenue" Declared Un
just and Obsolete.
WASHINGTON. July 19. Senator
Cummins, opening the tariff debate to
day for the ..Progressive Republicans,
declared that the Republican party lost
the confidence of the people and "was
driven from power largely because it
insisted on the maintenance of Import
duties, many of which were unneces
sarily and oppressively htgrh."
Besides pointing out many things
that he considered destructive and en
tirely nuwarranted in the bill Senator
Cummins criticised the President for
his influence everted upon "members of
Congress concerning the tariff -bill,
an influence, he said, "so persistent and
determined that it became coercive."
"I do not charge, nor do I believe,"
said Senator Curnmlns. "that the Presi
dent,' in terms, barters this power for
legislative subordination; but I do say
that,- without barter, the knowledge
of the confidence that may follow leg
islative independence will bring about
all the evils of actual wrongdoing un
Iops the most . scrupulous care is exer
cised in communications between the
President and members of Congress."
. Secret C'aucua "Tyrannical."
Senator Cummins declared he 'be
lieved 'the- bill would be modified If
members of Congress voted their con
victions, but.that it would not be modi
fied, "largely because the President of
the United States, assuming to Inter
pret aud'apply. the economic doctrine of
his party, has laid the heavy hand ot
his power upon a branch of'the Gov
ernment that ought to be co-ordinate
but which in fact has become subord
inate." .
Attacking as "'tyrannical" the Demo
cratic secret caucus on the bill, the
Iowa Senator declared it- was: more
Indefensible- than the tactics resorted
to by by Republican, leaders in pre
liminary consideration of the Payne
Aldrich bill, ,
"j?o long as the real legislation takes
place in a caucus it cannot be known
What any man says or ho' any man
votes," he charged. "H :1s no-t only In
visible, but tnau-dible, government."
Tariff for Revenue Criticised.
Tariff for revenue Senator Cummins
said he regarded as "obsolete, unjust
and Intolerable," and that "the moment
protection becomes unnecessary, free
trade is demanded by every considera
tion of Justice and equality."
"I would hold myself an enemy of
mankind," the. Senator continued, "if
true import duties were to raise the
price of any commodity which 'the
people generally used and ought to use,
simply to put money into the Treasury
of the United . Stattes. . We. produce
yearly In the United States commodi
ties competitive in their character, and
upon which duties are levied In this
bill, of the value of not less than 18,-800.000,000.-
If the average rate of duty
on these things is 2o per centum,
the duties will increase the price of one
year's product in tho aggregate $4,
700,000,000. , If- those who consume as
well as those who produce these com
modities share the "benefit of the In
creased price, the general good would
be promoted, but if our Democratic
friends are right- in asserting that
those who produce the dutiable articles
are the only beneficiaries, they ought to
shudder when they contemplate what
they are doing, for they are not only
taxing the people upon their consump
tion the 1260,000,000 which is collected
at the Custom-Houses on Imports, but
they are taxing them the $4,700,000,000
for the sole benefit of the domestic pro
ducers of these commodities."
Senator Simmons in presenting the
bill said it was confidently believed the
measure was a "fair interpretation of
the will of the people."

OFFICER IS FOUND GUILTY
Superintendent of Bathhouse Re
sponsible for Dath of 1 1 Boys.
LAWRENCK, Mass., July 19. (Spe
cial.) The negligence of the Superin
tendent of Public , Property, John O.
Eattershill, was responsible primarily
for the accident at the public bath
house on June SO, when 11 boys were
drowned, according to the verdict of
the inquest announced today.'
Judge Mahoney, who presided, said
that the walk connecting the bath
house with the shore was unsafe and
that the Superintendent should have
guarded against thoughtless conduct of
the children, who crowded on the walk
and by their rough play caused it to
collapse.

the breakaway from the aeroplane ap
peared to be perfect, and Bryant held
to the same opinion. They attributed
the accident to the too sudden opening
of the parachute.
Thayer rode the parachute with one
leg through a loose rope and one wrist
fastened with a strong strap and Iron
snap to the parachute ring. Examina
tion of the parachute after the acci
dent showed that this snap had broken
when the parachute jerked as it opened.
Although Thayer had been a para
chute Jumper for 25 years, this was the
first time he had ever- made a leap
from an-aeroplane. His Jump was not
booked as a part of the Potlatch aero
nautic programme, but Bennett let him

OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE,
Corvallis. July 19.; (Special.) Prelimi
nary arrangements have been made by
Commandant P. J. Hennessey for the or
ganization of a rifle club at Oregon
Agricultural College next year, thereby
affording all members of the O. A. C.
cadet regiment ample facilities for
gaining something of the practical side
of military training, aside from the
beneficial results of the physical devel
opment and mental discipline acquired
through regular drills.
"We have been granted permission by
the Adjutant-Oeneral to use the range
which the Oregon National Guard has
leased west of Corvallis," said Lieuten
ant Hennessey, while discussing his
plans, "and we have on hand at the
present time all materials for install
ing four outdoor targets, as well as 45,
000 rounds of regulation ball ammuni
tion, so I am expecting this Fall and
Winter to give the boys the opportunity
of becoming as proficient In marksman
ship as they now are in the manual and
field maneuvers."
When the regiment is reorganized
next September Colonel Henry Odean,
of Portland, and Lieutenant-Colonel R.

reedom of Debate Much Cur

T of President.
Expressions . That Would Go Unno
ticed In United States Subject
Speaker to Grave Penal-"
ties in Berlin.
BERLIN, July 19. The actual power
of the German Reichstag is so small
that scoffers have been known to refer
to It as "a : glorified debating society."
The limitations on the freedom of
peech of the delegates are, however, so
great, that it may be doubted whether
this term Is appropriate. For expres-
ions which would not even excite com
ment in an American Legislature speak
ers are admonished by the President of
the Reichstag, and for expressions
slightly more daring there is a formal
call to order. The third ca:l to order
forfeits to the offender the right to the
floor.
Every session of the Reichstag brings
amusing examples. of this. At a recent
session the Social Democrat Peus was
speaking. "The Kaiser," he said.
caused to be issued yesterday a de
cree which is coucaed in a more mod
erate tone than was the case in form
er times." Dr. Kaempf, President of
the Reichstag, interrupted him thus:
I beg you to cease using such ex
pressions. You may not say that the
Emperor has become more moderate.
That gives occasion for the contrast be
tween moderate and immoderate."
Remark Broadly Construed.
Scheidemann, another Socialist, was
speaking of the armament bill. "There
is," he said, no more shameless false
hood than the Imputation that the
French armament bill was the cause of
the German bill's being submitted."
"I trust you do not refer to members
of this house with your remark about
shameless falsehood," and President
Kaempf.
'I had the Spanish Parliament in
mind when I spoke,", said Scheidemann
gravely.
A burst of laughter from all parts of
the house followed, but Kaempf did not
join in it. He listened while Scheide
mann finished his speech, and then, a
half hour after his former remark, said
solemnly:
"You said that you had the Spanish
Parliament in mind when you spoke of
shameless falsehoods. The remark,
however, might be construed as re
ferring to the Reichstag. I call you to
order."
Emperbr-Warrlors Are Immune.
A former president of the Prussian
Diet once called to order a delegate
who had asserted that war "is a re
proach upon God." Such an expression,
said the president, was an insult to
Germany's great Emperor-warriors, and
particularly to William I.
Before the Reichstag adjourned on
June 30, President Kaempf said that the
day's session would live as one of the
most memorable in its history. His
words did not exaggerate the importance
of the work done by the House on that
day, for this included the till increas
ing the peace strength of the army by
136,000- men, as well as the financial
bills rendered necessary by it. These
latter include two classes of bills, one
for meeting the expenses to be incurred
in organizing the new forces, building
forts, barracks and other extraordinary
purposes; the other for defraying the
yearly expenses o the Increased mili
tary footing. The first class or taxes,
which are to. bring in at least $240,000,
000, consists of a direct tax on property
and incomes, and it will be distributed
over three years. Both taxes are on
graduated scales, under which the
largest fortunes pay $15 per thousand,
and the largest incomes (those of $120,.
000 or more) pay $8 per hundred. For
eigners resident in Germany must pay
on the same scale as Germans.

alone- the 123 miles from New York In
47 hours, an hour less than he had set

POKAXE, July 19. (Special.)
Please, Mr. Henry, I'd like to bor.
row $5 on these."
A demure miss, about 19 years old,
dark-haired and calico-gowned, ap
parently unfamiliar with "city ways,"
Friday afternoon addressed Henry M.
Weiss, a pawnbroker, known as "Uncle
Henry.".
"What have you?" inquired Weiss.
"Look for yourself," returned the
customer as she slowely raised the lid
from a cardboard box about two feet
long.
"Snakes!" gasped "Uncle Henry" as
his eyes fell on three large reptiles
curled up in the box. "Get out of here
and get out quick. Close that lid, for
heaven's sake, and don't let me see
them again." And "Uncle Henry" re
treated to a safe place behind the
counter, shut off by desk bars. A half
dozen men, including two other cus
tomers and two Jewelry drummers,
sought refuge behind counters.
"Uncle Henry" told his experience
this morning to City Detective Cecil
Thompson and a newspaper reporter.
"I've been in the loan business for
12 years, in all of the big cities of the
United States. I have taken loans on
gold teeth, wooden legs and every con
ceivable article of value, but I will
take off my hat to the young lady
who walked into my store this after
noon and tried to borrow to on three
snakes. I was scared nearly out of
year's growth when she opened that
box. I wish now that I'd thought to
get her name. Maybe she'll come back.
and if she does I'll let you know. She
told me a pitiful story, all right.
" 'I was with a carnival show all
Summer," she began. 'We went on the
rocks at Colfax a few days ago and
all I got for my pay was these snakes
I'm broke now", flat broke, and noth
ing to pawn but my pets.
" 'No, I don't want to sell them.' she
replied when I asked her why she did
not try to dispose of them at one of
the parks or amusement resorts. 'I
just want to borrow a few dollars, and
I'll take them back. sure.
