CONGRESSIONAL
Republicans Break Away.
Carter and Hansbrough Voted
With the Democrats.
Washington, Juno 21. fn the sen
ate the flag schedule of the tarifT bill
was taken up, the' pending question
being on Mr. Allison's motion to
amend the paragraph relating to
thread, twine, ets., made of (lax, hemp
or ramie, by substituting for the sen
ate rate 14 cents a pound and 7-8 of a
cent additional for each lea in excess
of live. Vest and Jones, of Arkansas,
contested the proposed changes, claim
ing the rates were excessive, while Al
lison contended they were essential
as a compensatory duty for increased
rates on raw material already pro
vided. Allison's amendment was agreed to
20 to 19, McEnery voting with the Re
publicans. Allison moved to increase the rates
in the paragraph relating to yarns,
making the rate 7 cents instead of 0
cents a pound on single yarns in gray,
not liner than eight lea or the number
as proposed in the original finance
committee amendment and 50 per
cent ad valorem Instead of 40 per cent,
on single yarns Uner that eight and
not finer than eighty lea.
Gray called for an explanation of
the Increase. He said it would not
do for Republicans to sit still without
saying a word, simply bacausc they
had the necessary majority.
Sewall said the Increase had been
decided upon to compensate for the
increase in rate on raw material de
manded by 'Western people."
"Very well," said Gray, "that's
more light than we have heretofore
had. Goon." "That's enough," In
terjected two or three Republican
senator.
Allison complained that if the Del
aware senator had hot received nec
essary Information It was because he
had not listened to what was said.
The colloquy continued bringing out
the information that the manufac
ture of flax yarns had not been profit
able In recent years.
Allison said It was the purpose of
the committee to so adjust rates as
not to throw any laborers out of em
ployment. Gray made an argument for free
raw material, the necessity for which
he said was illustrated by the action
of the finance committee In the case
of linen thread. The amendments
were agreed to. Committee amend
ments to llax gill netting were agreed
to,
Vest took exception to the increase
on floor mattings. lie moved to
strike out the entire section. Petti
grew said the committee ameudments
were evidently aimed at Japanese
matting which could not be produced
here.
Mantie said the exportation of grain
and other products to Japan from this
country was almost wholly dependent
upon the carrying vessels being able
to secure return cargoes. These car
goes were largely composed of Japan
ese mattings. lie had read a recently
published letter from the president of
the Great Northern railroad In sup
port of his proposition. On roll call
the' senate accepted Vast's amend
ment striking out the paragraph In re
gard to floor matting?, the vote stand
ing, 25 to 22. Carter, Hansbrough,
Mantle, Pettlgrcw and Teller voted
with the Democrats.
The result created a slight stir In
the chamber, as It, was the first sub
stantial triumph of the opposition to
to the tariff bill. Th&xjflect Is to re
store floor matting made from straw
and other vegetable substances to the
free list. This Includes the. Japanese,
Chinese and Indian matting.

Paragraphs 331, 332 and 333 were ac
cepted without dlvllfon. When para
graph 331, relating to oil cloth for
floors was rcacheiiruie opposition was
renewed and, aftcr( the amendment
had been perfected by the Republi
cans, Mr. Jones, of Arkansas, moved
to strike the paragraph out and Insert
tile provision of the Wilson law. The
amendment was lost, 22 to 67.
The amendments to paragraphs 335
(shirt collars and cuffs) were received
without opposition, ?but Mr. Whlto
moved to substitute the present law
for paragraph 33G In relation to luco
window curtains, tidies, etc. The
motion was lost. With this para

point in the bill. '
The amendments 0 337, window

fabrics of single juteg yarns and 310,
pile fabrics wcro agrfced to; 311 jute
grain bags and burlaps and 342, bag
ging for cottcn, gunny cloth, etc.,
were considered together and aroused
some discussion. J
Mr. White contended that the pro
posed duty on juto bags would cost
the farmers of the Paclti3 coast $300,
000 per annum. He asserted that the
duty on wheat was 11 delusion and
that by putting the bugs on the free
list an opportunity wan ailorded to do
the farmer a substantial service.
Mr. Pei kins said the Pacific coast
farmers were at the mercy ol the bag
makers of Calcutca and Bombay, ex
cept for the bags made by the con
victs in the state penitentiary of Cali
fornia. A motion to strike out the two para
graphs in regard to burlaps and cloth
for cotton bagging, was carried, 31 to
23. The effects of the yote is to leave
these articles on the fcc list. The
Silver Republicans und (Populists pre
sent all voted witli the Democrats,
but no straight Republican did so.
Going back, Mr. Jones, of Arkansas,
moved to strike out paragraph 339,
plain woven fabrics of single juto
yarns. Tills motion was also pre
vailed, 29 to 23. 1
Mr. Allison, In behalf of the com
mittee, proposed modulation of para
graph 311, in regard to the woven
fabrics, reducing the ratJe on articles
containing hol.wnen 00 atd 120 threadR
from 3 to 23-4 cents per yard, on those
between 120 to 180, from from 7 to 9
cents, and on those of more than 180
threads from 10 to 0 cents. The com
mittee amendments were aloptcd
The next paragraph, 345, was agreed
to without division. This concluded
the hemp schedule and brought the
senate face to face with tho wool
schedules. There was no evident In
disposition on all sides to take up the
wool question, and after the passage,
at the instance of Mr. Mantle, of a
bill proving for tne erection of a pub
lic building ut Butte, Mont., to cost
8300,000, tho senate went into execu

Meetings in Yew Park.
The meetings began at the tent in
Yew Park on Friday evening last
with a fair attendance.
The subject of the Introductory dis
course was "Tho Importance of Proph
ecy." based upon the words of 2 Pet.,
1:10-21, from which It was demonstra
ted that prophecy Is of dlylne origin,
Inspired by tho Holy Spirit, but given
to man through human instrumental
ity, and that the Bible is tho only
book of unequivocal prophecy ever
written, and is fully capable of inter
preting Itself, and that no man Is
authorized to place his own private
Instruction upon any of Its utterance.
God's word Is a Living Word, which
is working out his will as effectually
as the laws of naturo are working out
their results in tho natural world.
This world Is a dark placo on ac
count of the presenco of sin; and
prophecy isallghttodlrect man safely
through to that time when sin shall
bo no more. Chrslt's mission to earth
Is to save that which was lost, and ne
cessitates a second advent to consum
mate tho plan of redemption. By IiIb
advent In tho flesh tho moral regen
eration of sinners Is assured; und it re
quires a second, personal coming to
redeemlbellovcrs from tho cruel do
minion of death, and clothe them with
lmmortalllty; all of which, according
to the testimony of prophecy, Is to bo
accomplished at his second coming.
Hence, If ho never comes, as some
teach, tho complete redemption from
the effects of sin will never be con
summated. Wine Men Know,
It Is roily to build upon a poor foun
dation, either In architecture or In
health. A foundation of sand Is In
secure, and to deaden symptoms by
narcotics or nerve compounds Is
equally dangerous and perceptive.
The truo way to build up health Is to
