of congress under the census of 1IM0.
They voted down the republican caucus
bill to maintain the membership at 391. as
at present, and then passed the original
Crumparker bill, fiv.iit the membership at
433 on and after March 3. 1!U3. If Art sons

fought for their cause to the last minute.
Before the final vote was taken Repre
sentative Campbell of Kansas moved the
recommitment of the 433 bill with Instruc
tions to the committee of the whole house
to . report a substitute providing for 39t
members. This motion was lost, by a vote
of 131 to 171. This reflected the sentiment
of the members so decidedly that the vote
by which the bill was passed was decided
In the affirmative without a division or a
roll call.
Representative Crumpacker of Indiana,
author of the 433 bill, which was unani
mously reported from tha census committee
and afterward rejected by the republican
caucus, began the debate by urging the
iiecssxlty of action at this session and ex
plaining the difference between the two
propositions before the house.
."lepresentative Campbell of Kansas spoke
.41 behalf of his bill, approved by the re
publican caucus, for the retention of the
present membership of H. He said he
personally would prefer to have the number
reduced rather than Increased.
Small N.mlwr More KffectlTe.
Mr. Campbell said that every Increase
in the membership of the house had been
made to gratify the ambitions of states
nud members rather than to put Into prac
tice any Ideas about the formation of a
representative body. When the house had
nixty-flve members, Mr. Campbell con
tended. It was a more effective , legislative
body than It had been since.
Representatives Cilllett of Massachusetts
and Rnrnhart of Indiana spoke for the
Campbell bill and Thomas of North Carolina
and Iangley of Kentucky In favor of the
Crumpacker bill.
Mr. Ingley scarcely bad taken the' floor
befors Representative Madden wanted to
know If he proposed not to recognize the
action of the republican caucus, which he
had attended. Hs replied that he liked to
be "regular," but believed the caucus had
no right to approve any specific number,
and, for hit part, ho would not allow any
man or any caucus to deter him from car
rying out his pledge to represent his people.

Nevi.pnper., Fraternal, I'atrlotlc, Hcl

Ksreyted Other Amendments
to Go to Con sire. .
WASHINGTON. Feb. lO.-Magazlne pub
lishers will have to pay 4 cents a pound
on th. advertising sections of periodicals
carried as second-class mail, If. an amend
ment to the potttofflce appropriation bill,
adopted by the senate committee on postof
ftces and post roads, la accepted by both
branches of congress,
The action of the commutes was not ac
complished without a contest, although
the amendment was adopted by a vote of
eight to two. The senators who finally
voted against the Increase were Messrs.
Owen of Oklahoma and Bourne of Ore
gon. Mr. Owen based his opposition on the
ground that this tax upon popular reading
should not be levied by congress, while
Mr. Pourne contended that tho action was
a discrimination In favor of newspapers
and that they -should be taxed likewise.
Large Publications Affected.
The Increase will apply only to the large
publications as an exemption Is provided
for such periodicals of leas than 4,000
pounds weight per Issue. The privilege
of currying advertising matter will be
accorded by the amendment to fraternal,
patriotic, scientific and educational publi
cations, which privilege heretofore has
been denied to them when entered as second-class
matter. The theory of the sup
porters of this proposed legislation Is that
this exemption, together with tiat of dally
newspapers, will create oentlment through
out the country in favor of the proposi
tion. It Is estimated by Postmaster Gen
eral Hitchcock, who framed ths amend
ment as adopted, that Its operation would
teduce tha annual postofflcs deficit 13.000,
000 to 16.090.000.
Many senators hold this amendment
would be subject to a point of order when
ths bill Is considered on the floor, but If
this point should be submitted to the sen
ate for decision, members of ths committee
believe the amendment would be retained.
Vloe President Btierman. It Is aald. unques

repugnant to an appropriation bIH and It
is Lelievsd the matter will bs brought up

gramsThe railway employes have secured
a favorable committee report on their
electric headlight bill, regardless of the
action of the voters at the election last
year. It goes In this time as an "emer
gency" measure and If enacted will prevent
the road's again taking it to the refer

after a discussion in which one of the old
time residents of Kansas, opposed It as
a Kansas measure, declaring that that
state alwajs went to extremes one way or
the other, and he could not see anything
of benefit In the bill.
The enactment of the daylight saloon act.
which went Ihto effect at 3:30 yesterday,
at which time It received the signature of

One attempts to reduce the license fee

to place more strict regulations In regard
to townships granting liquor licenses.
The public utilities hill, requiring all such
