BUTLER MISSOURI.
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY, 9, 1SS9
""Governor-elect Francis will be in
augurated on next Monday, the 12th
inst.
Speaker Russell will have his com
mittees ready to report by the time
Governor Francis is inaugurated.
Since the absence of Senator
Beck, the honor of being the ablest
democratic debater in the United
States senate, has been generally
conceded to Senator Vest. It is a
distinction in which he and his state
may take great pride.
"We see by our exchanges that other
cities the size of Butler are agitating
the question of a local Building and
Loan association to establish man
ufactories. This, it seems to us,
would be an excellent method for
th people of Butler to pursue.
This as a suggestion and we expect
to have more to say on this subject
in the near future when we can sug
gest some definite plan of operation.
Secretary J. K. Gwynn, of the
southwest Missouri immigration so
ciety, is in high spirits over the
good results thus far of the society.
He has distributed throughout east
ern states 75,000 pamphlets and de
scriptive circulars and the inquiries
received at his office are numerous.
It is predicted that the immigration
the coming spring to Missouri will
be great, and it will pay Bates coun
ty to be on the watch for her share.
Hon. IS. E. Kimball, republican
nominee for governor at the last
election, is an applicant for the
office of United States Attorney for
the "Western District of Missouri,
and judging from the many indorse
ments he is receiving from the re
publican leaders and organizations
in the state, with a good show of
success. The office pays in fees not
to exceed $6,000 and it is understood
that it pays the full amount. He is
entitled to two assistants who re
ceive salaries of $1800 each.

VEST LEADS THE FIGHT.
!,.o! Cotton The Text For Tariff De
bate in the Senate.
Republican Turn Tail and Run from
tue Chamber ail Amendments Pro
posed Voted Down.
Washington, Jan. 3. In the sen
ate the tariff bill occupied the great
er portion of the day. Vest has
taken the leadership of the demo
crats and is opposing the monopo
lists' tariff bill with splendid effect.
The greater part of to-day's session
was devoted to tariff on thread.
Vest evidently had studied the ques
tion and mastered it to perfection.
It was a continuance of yesterday's
debate largely, though, of course,
the Senators did not confine thtm
slves in their discussion to the
matters immediately in question.
Mr. Vest read yesterday and also to
day from the testimony of an ex
mule spinner and an ex -member of
the Massachusetts Legislature nam
ed Howard, regarding the situation
of laborers in Massachusetts aud la
borers generally as far as he knew.
The testimony was taken by the
Blair committee a few years ago.
Howard, from all accounts, is an
intelligent man. He is a native of
England and worked 18 years as a
mule spinner in that country, and
five years subsequently as a mule
spiuuer in this country. At the
time his testimony was taken he was
the secretary of a labor organization
iu Massachusetts. His description
of the condition of the New Eng
land protected laborer aud the Old
Eugland free trade laborer made a
striking contrast. Mr. Vest brought
it out fully with brilliant running
comment that "riled the New Enj
landers." The republicans tried to
retort and break him up for a time,
but being heeled with facts and un
answerable logic, they were unable
to upset him, and presented the
pitiable spectacle of litterally run
ning from the senate chamber and
leaving it to the democrats. Allison,
Cullum, Manderson aud the repre
sentatives of agricultural communi
ties retired early in the fray, not be
ing able to stand the racket. Sher
man aud Edmunds soon followed
suit. Aldrich and Hawley for a
time held their own, Aldrich espe
cially, as he is personally interested
u thread factories. After a while
he, too retired and Mr. Vest made a
splendid exposition of the time in
wardness of the bill to his demo
cratic colleagues alone and to crowd
ed galleries. The cowardice of the
republicans in retreating from the
chamber to their cloak-rooms and
lunch-rooms was a subject of gener
al remark. They did not retire,
however, until they found they were
beaten.
During the recess Mr. Vest work
ed IS hours a day on the tariff bill
and mastered it. There is no man
on the republican side now able to
stand in front of him in the discus
sion of the bill. They discovered
this to-day and adopted the coward
ly subterfuge of walking away. Of
course, whenever a vote was neces
sary they returned to the Senate
chamber and voted with solid bru
tality against any and all amend
ments proposed by the democrats.
The bill will pass the senate, of
course, there being a republican ma
jority in the body, but it will not
pass until the democrats have shown
up its true character for the edifi
cation of the countr.
The pending question when the
debate began was on Mr. Vest's
amendment to paragraph 313 to
change the duty on eotton, thread,
yarn, warps, etc, valued at not ex
ceeding 25 cents per pound, from
10 cents per pound to 35 per cent,
ad valorem.
After a speech of some length
from Mr. Vance, Mr. Vest's amend
ment was rejected by the usual par
ty vote: Teas, 20; nays, 24.
Mr. Vest called attention to other
items in paragraph 313, but said he
would not offer any amendments or
ask a yea and nay Tote upon them,
but he would simply remark ' that
the duty on thse items was increas-
Ied in order to exclude all foreign
competition as far as possible, so as
to enable the American manufactur
ers to hold the market at whatever
price they aw fit to impose. He
moved, however, to amend para
graph 314. relating to spool thread
of cotton, by striking out "7 cents
per dozen spools" and inserting 40
per cent ad valorem. He quoted
from statements made by spool cot
ton manufacturers, J. P. Coates
Clark and others, before the tariff
commission in 1882, and before the
ways and means committee in 1884
to show that they asked a less rate
of protection in 1S84 than in 1885
Mr. Hawley said he did not un
derstand why the senator from Mis
souri was criticising spool thread
manufacturers for their willinguess
to accept a lower rate. He did not
understand that tbey were asking
any change in the existing law.
Mr. Vest suggested that there was
a good deal of money for them in
the existing law. He proceeded to
criticise the statement of a cotton
manufacturer (Mr. Fergusuu) be
fore the ways and means committee of
the House to the effect that the poor
sewing women of the United States
were benefited by the superior qual
ity of the American thread, aud he
contrasted his statement with ex
tracts from Helen Campbell's book
describing the condition of the sew.
ing women of the city of New York.
MARTIAL LAW IN OKLAHOMA.
1 he Settlers in Springer City Ordered
to Deiiart.
Pin-cell, I. T., Jan. 4. The Okla
homa invasion is coming to a climax
and excitement is intense. Spring
er City, Oklahoma, a town of 3,000
inhabitants, is under martial law.
The mayor and city treasurer have
gone, an l the United States troops
are ordering all citizens out. This
city is overrun with fugitives from
the '-promised land."
Lute last night the troops station
ed in the territory received orders
to remove all settlers who are now
locating claims in the vicinity of Ok
lahoma City, Purcell and Springer.
Reinforcements from Fort Reno are
expected to join troop B, United
States cavalry, near Oklahoma City,
and move on the settiers in the
morning.
As might be supposed, those who
have gone into the territory to take
unlawful possession of claims are
of the reckless kind and. therefore.
trouble f a serious nature is annre-
heudod at any moment. A c.nllimnn
between the soldiers and invaders is
hourly expected to night and there
inay be bloodshed before to-mor
row's sun sets.
The invaders have acted xr-rx
foolishly in making their move at
this time. The Springer bill is
pending and even if they were per
mitted to remain they would gain
no rights in the event of its passage.
They are evidently a set of advent
urers who do not understand the le
gal status of the matter will come
to frrief with only their trouble for
their pains. Of all the raids into
UKianoma tms latest one is the most
foolish and inexcusable.
