M'COMAS ADVOCATES THE DEATH PENALTY
President fryc Jinme !cnnle Com

I'ntll Monilny.
WASHINGTON, Dec. C. Senator Mc-
Comas of Maryland made an extonded and
carefully prepared speech In the senate
today with anarchy for his theme and was
followed by somo brief remarks by Mr.
Hoar of Massachusetts on the difficulties In
tho way of dealing with anarchist assas
sins. Mr. McComas' remarks showed care
ful examination of the legal authorities.
He maintained that congress had full
power under tho constitution to enact a
law punishing with death any person kill
ing a president or assaulting tho president
with Intent to kill, or aiding, Inciting or
procuring such an act. He favored rigid
provisions In the Immigration laws for tho
deportation of alien anarchists. Much of
tho speech was dovoted to an explanation
of tho dangerous doctrines of anarchy nnd
tho extent to which theso doctrines had
been propogated within recent years.
Ilnnlnhment n n Cure.
Senator Hoar's remarks wero Interesting
as coming from tho vcncrablo chnlrman of
tho Judiciary commltteo, which will have
much to do with the framing of nny legisla
tion on this subject. He said the diffi
culty was that assassins of kings and
rulers always gloried In their crimes and
wore in nowise deterred ,by tho fear of
punishment. For this reason ho thought
It was almost useless to multiply punish
ments. The most effective remedy, lie sug
gested, would bo to havo tho civilized na
tions of tho world ngroe upon somo deso
late spot on the earth's surface to which
nfl anarchists who uphold assassination or
tho overthrow of government should be
transported.
In such a community the anarchist could
carry out his theories of living without a
government and tho world would be rid
of his presence.
Senator McComas said:
W lthln f even yenrs President Cnrnot,
Prlmo Minister Canovas del Castlllco, the
empress or Austria, King Humbert and
President McKlnley have been foully as
sassinated hv nnnrrhlHtx. Our homes nro
still under tho shadow of national grief for
ui -urn ui'iuvt'ii rcriucni iinu mo ncuri ni
the world Is with us In our sorrow. It Is
humiliating to consider how Impotent arc
our federal laws to punish this fearful
crime.
Theso trade assassinations In different
countries, widely separated, in so short n
time, show that this hideous crime of
nnarchy Is Increasing. To abnormal minds,
possessed with tho Impulse to homicldo,
envy anil vanity, give a peculiar fascination
to ine men or tne assassination or a King
or a president.
Congress must legislate against this new
peril with cournge, with llrmncss, but also
with conservatism and prudence. Tho con
stitution permits congress to enact n law
to punish such crimes against tho very
cxlstenco of the government tho constitu
tion oruaineu.
Crime AKnlnst Whole Nntlon.
After defining tho terms of a prepared
statute, fixing tho death penalty for killing
a president or assaulting him with Intent to
kill, or advising, Inciting or procuring such
acts, tho senator proceeded as follows:
This Roveroln nnttnn In nnt an tvnnb tVitv
it mum auporu upon MO varying laws a
Its different 'Rtntna tn niinlnh n nrlmltinl
who nsKasslnates or attempts to ussasslnate
tho president!! whom tho constitution tie-.
ciares -snail itaKO care that tho laws Do
faithfully executed."
The president is within this tho peace of
the United States. A person assailing the
president while In the illnchnren nt his
duties violates)' this peace. If tho president
Is receiving the people of our country or
representatives of foreign countries In nny
city of nny of our Rtutes, he Is at the tlmo
within tho peace of tho United 8tates. If,
after he performs such function, ho Jour
neys to the White Houso nnd nt night when
itsieep me rjir wnercin no sleeps oe as
saulted with dynamite, such crime is still
n crime against the peace of the United
States in whatever stato the president's
train may be. Can this be doubted?
I.nv Should Bo llroad.
The president's duty Is continuous, not
pretcrmittent. He Is always on duty, he
ennnot dcle&uto his higest functions. Until
he dies or resign or ondn his term he Is
ever tnklnir e.irc that tho law be fRlthfully
executed. The president is In tho peace of
tho United States nt all tlmo nnd In all
places In the union. Congress may go
further It muy enact laws to protect the
high executivo officers, It may even protect
senators nnd members of congress. It 1
wisa to icginmic -now to protect tno nead
of the state the president and tho vice
president and the officers on whom the
ofllco of President shall devolve nnrt now
go no further. It may be prudont to declare
mat tins statute is not to do construed to
Impair tho protection already afforded bv
the law to other officials of the United
States.
Congress should enact a law to give
federal court Jurisdiction to try and punish
by imprisonment for a term of years, two
or more who confederate nnd conspire to
murder the president, or vice president or
both or any of the officers In lino of succes
sion to tho president, or who advise or
Invite any person to overthrow tho federal
government by willfully' assaulting the
president or vice president or any of the
officers in lino of succession to' tho presi
dent, t '
l'anlah Incendiary Speech.
This statuto should mako It a crime, with
penalty of imprisonment for a term of
years, for any 'parson to knowingly becomo
or continue to be a member of any organi
zation, club or- assembly where any person

.We should enact laws to oxpel and to ex
uludo alien anarchists. Wo shall at this
session, with unanimity, re-enact tho
Chinese exclusion nets. I will cheerfully
vote to exclude tho hordes of Chinese, Knr
moro readily will I vote to excltido alien
anarchists here now. We havo naturalized
ond active anarchists In our midst. With
theso we must contend in other fashion.
Why should we not, as we may, expel alien
anarchists for causo?
IllKld Imnilrnt Ion l.nvr.
The senator also urged numerous amend
ments of tho Immigration laws with a view
to excluding anarchists. In conclusion be
said:
At nil times tho body of the plain peonlo,
whom Lincoln loved and upon whom Mc
Klnley lenned, nro Its unfailing defenders.
This great people, facing the hideous peril
of anarchism, taught by their Sorrow to
think straight and soe clear, now rate more
highly than ever the value of their gov
ernment, prlzo more than over its benefits,
which aro theirs to enjoy and theirs to
transmit. More than ever before are now
revealed to them Its blessings, Its glory
and Its power.
Announcement of Committees.

The sonato spent soma time during the

Eugene Hendry, to bo marshal for tho ter
ritory of Hawaii. Tho nomination nt first
was referred to tho committee on Porto
Rico and Pacific Islands, of which Senator

raised tho point that Hawaii Is a full
fledged territory of tho United States nnd
that therefore the nomination should go to
tho committee on terrltorlesi Senntors Tel
ler, Foraker, Spooner ond Bacon engaged
In tho controversy which followod nnd the
question was ultimately on the suggestion
of Mr. Spooner referred to the commltteo
on rules, for tho formulation of a rule gov

session and at 3:45 adjourned until Monday.
TRUSTS AND THEIR NATURE
(Continued from First Page.)
a place whero government supervision Is
necessary. How much Interference should
be had Is the question. When we attempt
this It will bo necessary to Interfere' with
labor organizations, and this Is a very deli
cate rr.atter.
"Tho trusts havo a dangerous power In
being able to forco Independent manufac
turers. Into their organization. This' must
be curbed. ' f ,
"State Interference amounts to nothing.
We havo on anti-trust law In Nebraska,
but It Is Ineffective so far at least. I bo
llovo In an Interstate commerce court,
modeled somewhat after tho court of
claims. Wo do not want a beneflcicnt
tyranny.
"Those who ndvocato tho destruction of
corporations aro courting Industrial an
archy. If American manufacturers aro to
copo with those of foreign countries they
must bo allowed to use as much capital In
their business.
"Mr. Carnegie Is authority for tho state
ment that while American goods nro selling
freely In foreign countries, much Is being
sold at cost or below, in order to unload
tho surplus. If this were not done tho fac
tories would have to close and the mines
shut down."
How Publicity Would Help.
Asked what beneficial results, would ac
crue from publicity he said that publicity
would have a similar effect upon corpora
tions as upon banks. When tho corporation
Incorporates It must show that .tho value .of
tho holdings, aro equal to tho capitalization,
"Toko tho Standard 0(1 company. What
benefit would be received from that?" was
asked.
"Probably less In. tho case pf tho Stan
dard Oil company than any other. It has a
gold mine. In thle case, the publlo would
understand the financial condition of the
company."
"Do you think that publicity would deter
the public from Investigating in watered
stock?"
"What I want Is a law which will pro
vent the issuance of stocks and bonds" In
excess of actual value. Let bonds which
will pass muster be registered nnd stocks
unregistered would not sell or sell for less
mone;'."
"Take the case of Northern Pacific stock.
Do not people Invest In thut believing that
the Income will be advanced to a point
whero the advanced prlco will pay?"
"No. I bellovo that generally this stock
Is bought by people who think they will
sell for moro money. There Is one thing I
want to eay. There should bo a law which
woultf prohibit the conversion of stock Into
bond Ilneds aro n-fixed chargo upon tho
roads ;.v, ti tribute levied upon tho re
gion through which tho roads run."
Protection from () vcr-Citpllullznlloii.
In answer to other question- the spcakor
said:
"What I am trying to do Is to havo the
government protect the people from the ef
fect of over-capitalization, Inducing panics.
Tho man who now has un opportunity to
earn money wants to be protected from a
recurrence of times when he has not that
power."
"Would not free trado have a tendency
to curb the trusts?''
"In some cases only. In the Standard
Oil company, no; as duty Is not lovled on
oil, I do not sco how free trade would stop
the trusts. It might reduce dividends and
probably reduce wages to a cortaln degree,
and thore Is a question whether or not tho
reduction In tho prlco of the product would
benefit tho people generally.
"On the other hand, the party who was to
erect buildings, using eteel beams, might
be benefited, Would It benefit nny.body
clso? The tariff. Is ono of those things
which depond upon constantly changing
conditions, I do not suppose at the present
time It benefits the steel companies, as
they aro selling In competition with the
.world. But It may bo that they oro selling
on the foreign market at cost and taking
their profits from America."
"What benefit Is It to tho people if Bales
aro mado below cost abroad?"
"Well, tho miner nnd tho mlllman nro
kept busy In America."
Operation of the Turin.
On tho question of tariff 11. W. Yatw
said that while manufacturing white lead
In Omaha he found that by making quan
tities of 6,000 tons in place of 2,000 tons, the
I
2,000 tons could bo sold In America for lo
mobey and tho 3,000 tons be sold abroad at
half price and a higher profit made than
whrw only 2,000 tons wero manufactured.
Returning td tho question, Mr. Roscwatcr
said; '"If nil articles mado by trusts wcr
to be put upon tho frco list n number of
persons would start trusts to get their
products on the free list. The tariff must
bo dlscusseU free from tho trusts."
Following tho running discussion, C. J.
Smyth said that while he was not pre
pared to say that publicity is nut a good
thing, ho believed there is enough legisla
tion now on the books to curb or destroy
every trust. What Is needed Is men strong
enough to onforco' tho laws. Tho United
Stntes can onforco any law It desires. The
nt.tprney general of the United States l
prouabiy the only man In tho country wbo
docs not ktiow trusts exist In this country.
Tho speaker said that with Mr. Rosewater
ho bellev.od the state can accomplish little,
but it .can nccomplnh something.
