Bristol, Tenn.. April 20. Trouble is

ed it necessary to take some action in
the matter, ami accordingly held a

in dementing tlio young men and
warned them if they persisted in wear

expulsion. This caused quite a stir

they held a meeting last night to take
action in theni:itt.er. A member of the

THE PEXDKG INCOME TAX DECISION.
Why the Friends of the Kx-l'rettidpnt 0;
poae the Hearing- liefore the Ten
nessee Jurist Former Oppo-
sltlon to Hint Recalled.
Wasiiisgtos, April 29. The an
nouncement that Mr. Justice Jackson
will sit with his associates of the su
premo court in the rehearing of the
income tax case develops the fact that
his opinion in the case will possess an
interest for the politicians beyond the
questions immediately involved. It
may cut a figure in the contest grow
ing livelier now every day for the re
publican nomination for the presi
dency." , Judge Jaokson's Appointment.
Mention was made recently of the
protest entered by a number of repub
lican leaders against the appointment
01 Judge Jackson by President Harri
son. They took the ground and in
sisted that the office should go to some
member of their own party. It could
only be in this way, they contended,
that the appointment could be fully
guaranteed. The party would be held
responsible, and the party, therefore,
should fill the office. There was no
criticism of Judge Jackson in any
wise affecting his professional equip
ment. It was contened that he was a
good man and a good lawyer. But, be
ing a democrat of thorough training
and deep conviction, he must be ex
pected to take a democratic view of
public questions in general.
There would be a risk in this, these
republican leaders sai L They earn
eastly advised the appointment of a
republican one whose training had
imbued him with convictions from the
republican standpoint.
President Harrison, putting all of
these suggestions aside, stood upon the
simple proposition . that politics mast
not be permitted to obtrude in matters
respecting the bench, so he selected
Judge Jackson, a democrat, to succeed
Judge Lamar, a democrat.
The 1'reneut Interesting: Points.
There has now" arisen one of those
very interesting and important points
upon which iiolitieal parties divide.
The republican party, as a party, is
against the income tax. The demo
cratic party, as a party, i3 for the tax.
The supreme court, without Judge
-Jackson, is evenly divided on the
question of the constitutionality of the
law. Judge Jackson is called upon to
cast the deciding vote. The law would
stand without his vote, but public
sentiment demands a majority vote of
the court one way or the other. If
Judge Jackson is in favor of the tax
republican leaders who opposed his ap
pointment will, it is predicted, at once
revive the fact of their opposition and
insist that had their adyice been taken
and a good sound republican selected
the tax would have been overthrown.
These men are all anti-Harrison men
as respects- next year's presidential
nominations of their party. The Jack
son appointment was one of many to
which they objected. They are organ
izing to oppose him again should the
movement in his behalf for next year
take formidable shape, and every cir
cumstance susceptible of use against
him is being tabulated and filed away.
But there is also the other side of the
problem. If Judge Jackson decides
against the tax it will be equally in the
power of the Harrison men to claim for
their favorite a share in the felicitation
that will follow in republican circles.
Real Situation Not Affected.
Nothing, of course, in all this will in
anywise affect the real situation.
Judge Jackson will pass upon the ques
tion without regard to politics, or the
source from which his official commis
sion came. Nor does the fact that he
is a democrat signify. Judge Harlan,
who is a staunch republican, voted to
uphold the law, while Judge Field, who
is a democrat, gave the law one of the
most resounding blows ever heard in
the supreme court chamber. Politics
are undoubtedly barred in the court on
the income tax proposition.
SILVER MEN DETERMINED.
In Texas the Free Coinage Faction of the

AUSTIN, Tex., April 20. The 16 to 1
silver men of the legislature held a cau
cus last night at which they declared
themselves unequivocally in favor of
free and unlimited coinage of silver at
the ratio of 16 to 1. This action is ex
pected to lead within the next 'two
years, to a permanent split in the de
mocracy of Texas, and give the popu
lists the reign of power. Ex-United

lished himself as leader of the new sil
ver party and it is believed he wiil be
nominated for governor in 1890.

THE WEALTHY HEAD THE LIST.
About Twenty 1'er, Ont Have Failed lo
u Hake Income Tax Returns.
Washington, April JC. Revised cal
culations indicate that about 30 per
cent of the persons subject to the in:
come tax have failed to make the re
turn prescribed by the law. The first
estimate placed the number of delin
quents at about 10 per cent. Each day
adds to the difficulties and perplexities
iu the enforcement of the emusculated
statute. Although secrecy is properly
observe.! by the officials in regard to
individual eases, it is generally under
stood that many of the wealthiest" men
in the country have ignored the law
completely. This is said to be particu
larly the case with several well-known
millionaires, whose incomes are deriv
ed mainly from rents. The Vanderbilts
are classed in this category, and sever

and this city are said to have failed to

HOLDS THE REISS OF DEMOCRACY.
The Son-of the Venerable Senator Thinks
the Movement Is Growing, and lie
lieves the Opponents of Sil

CniCAOO, April 29. John .Mayo. Pal
mer, a son of United States Senator
Palmer, and a member of the executive
committee of the Honest Money league,
returned yesterday ; from Springfield.
Speaking of the silver sentiment
throughout Illinois, Mr. Palmer said:
The sentiment in favor of the free and un
limited coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1.
without international conference or atree
meet, seems to have complete possession ot
the democracy of Illinolse outside of Cooh
couDty. 1 conferred with men of all shades ol
opinion upon this subject, with republicans as
well as democrats. I talked with' republicans
boraiise sometimes lookers on see more of the
game than the players. I met old friend with
whom 1 could talk confidentially, and got the
impression that, while there is a very strong
and, respectable sentiment throughout the
state In opposition to this currency theory,
yet the opponents of 18 to I, are without or
Kanizition, apparently wflliout ambition tc
succeed nnd are siUKularly .silent., whilo tiw
silver men are vigorous, active and asrwssive
It seems to roe utterly impossible that thf
opponents of 18 to 1 silver, should they t:kf
part in the June convention, could make anj
serious Impression. The convention will un
questionably declare in favor of 18 to 1
without conference with nny natiou. Wo op
pose that view, although there arc soi.ie dif
ferences r.f opinion amouit us. will, as a rui
take part, In tho convention, although in
some counties dclcsration ; will be sent com
posed of leatlinti men, representinsr boih views
wholly irrespective of the sentiment in thf
particular locality- '

his influence in a quiet way before the

not at all convinced that the secretary
may not be induced to speak iu the cam
