Senator - Owen, of Okla homa." It has been- said that the peer less - leader himself - has been - active against the Virginian ; The election of Martin is a ' victory for the Bailey wing of the Democracy in the senate.

' FOLLOWS BRIBE -EXPOSURE Introduces Resolution Naming the Committee to investigate Again the Electron of the Illinois Senator. Senator LaFollette introduced a res- 1 elation in the U. S. senate for a new I investigation', of Senator - Lorimer's title to his seat. The resolution, which was ordered printed and to lie on the table, follows the : revelations, at SDrinefleld as to a $100,000 "slush fund." It cites the fact that material ) new testimony has .been, brought out, and names as a special committee of J investigation Senators Works, Town send, McLean,' Kem and. Ponerene. : - The resolution recites the action of the senate, last' session in failing to declare the seat -of Senator" Lorimer vacant and adds; , ' "It -appears from the published re ports of the proceedings of the said Illinois state senate , committee, that witnesses who were not called, and sworn by the committee of this sen ate -appointed to Investigate '' said charges, have appeared before the said committee of the.Illinois state senate and upon - being -interrogated have given Important , material testimony tending to prove that $100,000 was cor ruptly 'expended to. secure--the . elec- tlon of William Lorimer to the United J States senate." The resolution . provides, for .meet ings of the committee and gives to It full - authority to subpoena . persons, Bend for papers and administer oaths. It is expected that an effort will be made to have" the resolution" referred to-the committee on privileges - and elections, of which: Senator .

' ,"- THE we have a full line T Three Large Shoes HALL JBilEROAiaTILE COtlMf . Judge Gray Against income Tax. Judge George Gray, of Delaware, Ibelieves that the proposed amendment to the constitution of the United States. providing for an income-tax is a menace to the rights of the states. '. In a letter written by him to Aus ten G. Fox, In New York, he dis cusses the subject at Jength and comes to the. conclusion that a tax of this kind levied by the federal government must be double taxation, unless the states .give up the power to levy In come taxes. . . On- this part of the subject he has this to say: - .. "The proposed amendment is not a mere grant of power to the federal government. It is a practical surren der of the power heretofore reserved to the states. What the states give in this instance they practically deprive .hemselves of, for, as I have pointed 3ut. -T is nnt 3: mere sharing by the states ofthis power with the general government, as the necessity ot avoid ing . an oppressive double -taxation would make it necessary to the states to yield to the paramount authority of . the national government. I think, therefore; Governor Wilson, for whose opinion I have the highest respect, was mistaken in his--short message to the legislature of New Jersey in say- ing: , " JThey (the states)? will thereby be sharing with theJederal government one. of -the few powers of taxation Which under the latest decision of the supreme court of. -the United rStates In that matter they, may now regard themselves as entitled to exercise to a certain extent exclusively, " Police-Spoil Triple Elopement.

They begged Mr. Bryan to come where "the peo-1 pie loved him, where he would always j find friends." Mr. Bowers said he felt sure that Memphis could easily raise $2,000,000 if that would be any induce ment to have Mr. Bryan in his city. Mr. Bryan replied that it was not a money consideration and that if he looked at it in that light he would not be worthy of such an invltationl He said that he: knew he had friends in the south that would stand by Mm, and .that was why they did not need him there;- they needed him more in the north. Suggesting that he should not be on one side: of the country, he said his home at Lincoln is almost la the center : of. the country- and ".only two -days' Tide to any -section where he might be needed -to help- fight - for the cause of Democracy. Rece'ver For a Church. ; The court appointed a receiver -for St. George's Catholic church," of Shen andoah, a., a parish which has 8000 members and is the largest congrega- ftion in that section; 1 The receivership is the result of an equity suit brought by the late Arch bishop' Ryan, of Philadelphia, to com pel the officers of St; George's to sulH mit to his authority. - , .
