only to llx tho Bum to Iks collected and t
pro rnto that among all property owners,
bo much tax to each hundred dollars of
assessed value. No such restrictions
hind tho autooraU of tho ways and menus
committee. It is within their province
to let one man go scot froo of taxes and
to tax another to death; to say to ouo
manufacturer, "You shall prosKrnud
wax tich," and to his neighbor, "You
shall ho ruined;" to extinguish or kindle
furnace ilros; to open or closo tho doors
of factories, and to stop or start tlio
great engines in mills and mines. This

an old man who stands In tho rear of tho

bald heads Ix'gln to complain, the old
man pushes tlio window up again. l'lius,
while wo ani learning something about
the taxing owor of our government, wo

hcoiii of millions of tho tax money havo
been poured.
The men who come to present argu
ments bcfoio the coiumlttei) bring with
them great numbers of wimples. Soon
tho big table Is coveted with pieces of
cloth, bunches of wool, fragments of
metal, glass and earthenware, sugar and
sirups in llttlo littles, and many scores
of such things. Cleric Carson is rapidly
building up a wayH and means museum,
composed entirely of theso sample ar
ticles, and ranging lu variety fiom a pin
from Shellleld to tho hide of a South
Ameiieau steer.
After tlio hearings aro concluded tho
real work of making a tariir bill begins.
This Is done with closed doors, and only
the majority of tho committee partici
pate. When tho Republicans are in power
the chalimau and his party friends re
tire to some piivato room to do their
work in secret. Meanwhile the Demo
crats stand by and complain of this "dark
lantern" method. When the Democrats
are In power they get oir In some place
by themselves, and then tho Republicans
raise tlio cry'of dark lantern methods.
Such, It will bo observed, is politics in
Amei ica.
It is a serious job which these men un
dertake when thoy sit down lu private.

is a tyrant's power, but it is precisely
tho power wielded by tlio thirteen incil
on whom wo aro to look.
Tho ways and means couunitteo, of
course, represents in a majority of its
members tho party in power in tho houso
of representatives. It is appointed by
tho speaker, and In this creation of com
mittees lies that power of tlio speaker's
ofllco which makes it easily tho second
offlco of importance in tho United States
government. Tho chairman of tho ways
and moans committee is by tradition and
common consent tho leader of tho house,
lie is usually a man of long experience
and great ability. Tradition says, also,
that eight of tho memlwrs shall bo in ac
cord with tho majority of tho house,
while flvo shall bo appointed to ropresent
tho minority.
Tho chief duty of tho committeo is
preparation of a taxing or tariff bill. As
a preliminary to this a programme of
"hearings" is arranged. On appointed
days tho representatives of various man
ufacturing, commercial and agricultural
interests aro invited to bo present and
oiler arguments concerning tho changes
in tho law which thoy desire. Theso in
terests aro nover backward. Thoy como
to the front always in largo numbers.
Thoy como from all mtia of tho country
and from every walk of life. Hero mill
ionaire manufacturers llko Carncgio and
Spreckcls meet plain, blunt farmers like
Mr. Brown, of York county, Pa., and
Mr. Plollct, of Dradford county. Some
times great lawyers appear boforo tho
committeo to make arguments for their
clients, and members of tho house, and
senators also, for their constituents.
Theso tariff hearings nro held before
tho full committee, Democrats ns well as
Republicans, Tho doors nro open, too,
and whosoever will may come. Often
large crowds assemble and help to make
up a sceno of raro interest. In tho mid
dle of a room about thirty-flvo feet
equaro is a long, wide tabic. It is cov
ered with books, papers and documents.
Surrounding it aro thirteen chairs, and
tho table just in fi it of each chair
bears tho name of one of the members.
Here sits tho commit v, and crowding
about aro hundreds of spectators, only u
few of whom can flni seats.

dent of tho United States used that num
ber in his message to congress to Illus
trate tho importance of the measure,
nut tho number gives no adequate idea
of the scope of a tariff bill. It is a thing
which cannot bo expressed lu numbers.
Leaving out tho few hundred items men
tioned in tho full list, everything elso
known to the people, everything which
they wear, drink, smoke or use in their
homes, on their persons, in their stores,
ofllccs, factories and fields, bears a rate
of duty.
Aud hero sit tho eight potoutntcs of
commerco, of trade, of manufactures,

about their Augers by tho simple putting

taking away of tho same. Prosperity or

clerk puts down on paper at tho direc

der the ways nnd means is considered
tho greatest of committees? Is it any
wonder that it usually absorbs the lest
brain and largest experience of congress?
Whon tho majority have finished their
bill thoy report it to tho full committeo.
The minority thon for the first time may
see it. No matter whether thoy llko it
or not it is the bill, and thus goes to
tho house, aud, accidents barred, to tho
statute books.
Now tho minority begins to frame a
bill of its own. It, too, needs a commit
tee room. For half a century tho ways

Now it has two. A few days ngo Speak

Nisw Youk, April 10. The case of
Choatc, tho roxrter who hid in the jury
room at the Flack trial, has given liso to
all soils of reminiscences and yarns con
cerning Instances of newspaper enter
prise, or leportorial cheek. The story
of Joo Howard's llrst piece of newspaper
work Is perhaps one of tho most interest
ing, and 1 4 certainly characteristic of the
mini.
Joo had just i etui tied from mi unsuc
cessful business venture in California
mill was visiting friends ii Lynn, Mass,
The great sti ike of the ,y im shoemakers
was in progress, ami when Joo leached
the hotel ho found the names of half a
dozen well known newspaper reporter
on the register. It was the fashion in
those days for the correspondent to regis
ter tho name of the paper lie lepresented,
and lifter Howard hud lead, "So-and-so,
The New York Herald;" "Illauk Illunk,
The New York Tiibune," and so on, ho
became iitllicted with a spirit of emula
tion and wrote in a huge, Mowing hand,
"Joseph Howard, Jr.', The New York
Times." Ho hud, nt that time, never
written a lino for a newspaper In Ills life,
and his only connection with The Times
wnH as an occasional piuchaser. In the
com ho of the afternoon ho met several
of tho newspaper men and found that
they wero In the dumps. The strikers
were holding meetings w ith closed doors,
and it was Impossible to learn anything
of their doings.
"I'll fix that," said Joseph, after listen
ing to the talo of woo.
That evening ho marched down to the
hall where tho meetings wore held,
knocked on the door, and when it was
opened boldly pushed his way in. He
strode up tho lnlddlo aisle to tho plat
form, stopped to tho front, beside the
chairman's table, interrupted tho speaker
with a courteous yot commanding "Kx
cuso mo for ouo moment, please," and
then, before tho astonished strikers could
regain thelrscattered senses, ho luuno''cd
Into a characteristically Hownrdian
speech.
He told thorn that ho had been sent on
by Tho Now York TimcH to represent
their enso fairly to a waiting world; that
ho wished to counsel with them, to advo
cato their cause and assist them in gain
ing their iK)lnt. Ho spoke enthusiastical
ly of tho rights of lalwr, of tho power of
tho press aud tho duty of American citi
zens. Ho told them stories, got them
Into thoroughly good humor and practi
cally took charge of tho meeting. After
tho meeting was adjourned ho sat down
to write his first newspaper article. He
sent it to Tho Times without a word of
explanation, signed it "Howard" and
awaited developments. The letter reached
Tho Times oflice lato at night, aud tho
editor, supposing "Howard" to bo work
ing under instructions from Mr. Ray
mond, printed it.
Tho next morning when Mr. Raymond
como to tho ofllco his first question was:
"Who is Howard?" Nobody knew. His
matter was bright, readable, and a do
clded "scoop." Mr. Raymond com
municated with him and arranged to
havo him follow tho strike to the end.
On his return to New York ho liccamc
regularly connected with Tho Times, and
has stuck to nowspaper work over since.
If it had not boon forhisspiritof "hlnH"
ho would have probably been a merchant,
and journalism would have lieen with
out ono of its most entertaining figures.

Nkw Youk, April 10. I believe "The
Tan Yard Murder" was LafcadloHcani's
llrst assignmont as a reporter on Tho Cin
cinnati Enquirer. Tlio crime was com
mitted ono Saturday night in tho latter
part of October, 1874, but was not discov
ered until tho next day. Andrew Egner,
his sou and an accomplice, all employes
of a tan yard, killed a fellow workman
most brutally, using a pitchfork as tho
weamn of partial slaughter. They then
carried the Iwjdy, with tho breath of llfo
not yet extinct, and throw it into ono of
tho furnaces. Thero it was discovered
next morning half consumed by the heat.
Tho Enquirer's forco of reporters at
that time was small, and Mr. Hearii, who
happened to call, was asked by Mr. Cock
erel! to do tho descriptive part. Mr. J. B.
McCormick, now tho business agent of
W. II. Crane, tho actor, was Mr. Ilearn's
co-worker in that roportorial Bonsatton,
for it made a sensation peculiarly abovo
nnd beyond what tho usual nowspaper
nccounts of murders create. Mr. Uearn's
powers of picturing tho horrible bad a
fertile field in that murder. He went to
the fcene of tho tragedy, and not only
used his sense of sight, feoblo as it was,
to an advantage which other reporters of
perfect vision did not accept, but he
brought to bear upon tho caso In hand
his sense of smell and touch.
To see tho horrors of tho case ho was
compelled to stoop closo over tho charred
remains, and, as a consequence, ho could
not help using his olfactories. And yet
ho went further. I do not believo Mr.
Hearn over approached an object closo
enough to see it that ho did not favor it
with Ids caressing touch. Tho tan yard
victim was no exception. Mr. Hearn
saw it, smolled it, touched it. Yea, ho
put a finger into tho eyolcos socket of
tho half consumed head, pretty much as
ho had u habit of thrusting his index
digit through tho button hole of your
:oat.
Then ho went back to tho oflice, sat
Jown to a desk, or rather luy down on
one for ho nover sat upright while pre
paring a manuscript aud when his task
was done ho hud accomplished a literary
horror. No man of this generation ex
cept Lafc.ulio Hearn could have drawn
such n shuddering word painting of
what ho saw, had smolled and handled
in tho victim of "Tho Tan Yard Murder."
Therefrom dated his engagement as a
reporter for Tho Enquirer. I begun work
in the samo department tho day follow,
ing the murder, the day upon which Mr.
Ilearn's master stroke of descriptive
writing appeared in print.
