The mat ter was referred to the Treasurer with Section 2205 of the Code. This says that whenever any manufacturer of fertilizers shall have paid the tonnage tux, his goods shall not be liable to taxation by any city, town or county. The Treasurer re ferred to Attorney general who Bays that under Section 22 of the revenue act of 1807 Croom is cleat: that he is simply a buyer and seller of fertilizers.

Plans for Suppressing Bills in House Next Session. Senator Ciilloiu'.i Financial Ideas. Restricted Immigration Measures to he Tried. Iol'kxaL Bm:EAl, ) Washington, D. C Dee. 3. )" Great as has been the power of npeaker Keed (luring previous sessions of Congress, H must lie greater still din ing this session, if he cau succeed in car rying out the programmes he is credited with having drawn up. It taxed his power lo the utmost all during the last Congress to prevent the passing of any public building bills by the House, and at the extra session of the present Con gress it was only by using the argument I hat the extra session was called solely to pass a taritf bill, and that inaction on other legislation by the House was abso lutely necessary in order to hurry up action by the Senate on the tariff, that he succeeded in earn ing out his wishes. At both of these sessions he hail the sup port of Mr. McKinley, who then Had many juicy plums to bestow upon his friends, aud at the extra session the di- sire for good committee assignments also kept many members of the House quiet. Now, Mr. McKinley has disposed of most of bis stock of plums and the house committees are all formed, yet the speaker's programmes is said lo be that there shall be no public building, private claims or liver and harbor hills passed by the House at Ibis session. The diffi culty of carrying out such a programme can be fully appreciated v hen it is re inembered that rigid afler the close of this session members of the House will have lo appear before their constituent: and ask for reiioiniuation. Senator Cullom outlined a policy fo his party in the Senate I hat would be ii thorough accord with common sense and busiuess principles, when he said, in reply to a question us to what his parly ought to try to do in the shape of liuati cial legislation at this session of t Con gress: "I'liless we can be assured by a poll ot the Senate that a llnancial bill can be passed, 1 think t he Republicans should keep their mouths shut on the subject.'' But that policy is not likely to be adopted. It is almost certain thai there is to be much debate from all sides of the finan cial question at tins session, especially in the Senate, and equally certain that m general llnancial bill will be passed although there appears to be a slight chance in favor of legislation amending the National banking laws: The advocates of a further restriction upon immigration arc already making themselves heard in Washington, and it is evident that a very determined effort in that direction is going to he made in Congress, and from present indications it will probably be successful, although not to the radical extent that extremists arc asking for, The administration naturally ( prefers cutting the appropriations down to going to Congress for additional tariff legisla tion at this session. By next July the tariff may be bringing In all the money needed, as Secretary Cage now asserts. If so, everything will tie right, and the Republicans can claim credit for having known it all the time. If it isn't all right, then Congress will at the next ses sion have to provide for more revenue. AMUSEHENTS. Fields and Hanson's MINSTRELS Saturday, Dec. 4, '97.
