Although Jerry Howard of South Omaha
did not get an opportunity to hold a con
ference with Mr. Bryan, he managed to
tuck a package of papers Into the hand
of the secretary of state. Among othor
things In these pnpers, Mr. Howard
called attention to the condition of what
he termed the "down-troddon, oppressed
and poorly paid working class of South
Omaha, who are In an abject state of
serfdom."
Mr. Howard's documents told Secretary
Bryan that the "alien lund question In
California drops Into Insignificance as
compared with the condition caused by
the Importation of cheap alien labor from
Japan and elsewhere by the multl-mll-llonalre
packers. These poor fellows are
huddled together In colonies in direct vio
lation of sanitary laws, thereby enabling
them to work cheap."
In the paper, Secretary Bryan was
urged to stop off here on his return from

The dny's debate further was enlivened
by the first exhibition of feeling between
majority and minority leaders In the
tariff discussion, when Representative
Dixon of Indiana, democratic membber of

the republican tariff law. He declared
It was in effect an Increase over the
former Dlngley tariff In that the aver
age rate of the Payne law was 1:71 per
cent higher than the Dlngley law with
the statistics of 1907 as a basis.
"The statistics that the ways and

TnlUx of Income Tax.
Representative Hull of Tennessee re
plied today to numerous comments
on provisions' of the Income tax.
To the suggestion that It la class
legislation and a distinction between cltl
sens of large means and those without
particular means, he answered that Its
purpose was to reach for taxation those
who have escaped taxes and who are
most able to bear them. He declared the
masses of the people were paying most of
the WU.000.000 tariff taxes and most of
the state and local taxes, save In a few
states.
"Where, then." he asked, "la the In
justice of requiring the receivers of In
comes of more than 11.000 to equalise In
some measure these tax burdens by con
tributing less than 1100,000.000 to the fed
eral treasury?" He denied there was
any sectionalism In the effects of the
tax.
"It was monstrous." he said, "to sav
that the receivers of great incomes,
drawn from all sections of the country.

Taxes Fair nnd Responsive.
The tax,, he said, Is fair, productive,
responsive to chango In rates and cheap
of collection. No honest taxpayer had
anything to fear, ho said. Against the
assertion that the tar was upon thrift,
Industry and profits, Mr. Hull replied
that the tariff was a tax upon consump
tion, want and even poverty and misery,
and added that the proposed income tax
was measured by net profits or gains
and not Imposed upon gross Income nor
capital nor other property. He charac
terized the Income tax as the outgrowth
of centuries of tax legislation throughout
the world.
Victims of Intangible and invisible tar
iff taxes with their features of spolia
tion and plunder, will welcome the pro
posed tax; the receivers of large Incomes
and owners of great wealth should pre
pare to accept It as a permanent tax, for
It has come to stay. Its effect will be
to displace about 170,000,000 dorlved from
vicious customs house taxation to the
end that this country may have In the
future justice In taxation, flexibility
and stability of revenue and economy In
expenditures.
Insurance Protest Not Good.
Mr. Hull said be had received from
policy holders of mutual Insurance com
panies circular letters Issued by the com
panies designed to frighten them Into the
belief that the proposed 1 per cent tax
upon the net Incomes of the companies
would do the policy holders Injury and
carrying veiled threats to Increase the
premiums.
"These companies," said Mr Hull, "well
know there Is no purpose to tax the pro
ceeds of life Insurance policies nor the
return of any amount of the principal
Invested In Insurance during life for
business purposes, but only the gains
and profits that arise from the same.
The tax would not in the least Increase
the amount of the premiums under any
theory of fair dealing."

LONDON, April 29. The ambassadorial
conference met again yesterday. Pre
mier Asqulth and Viscount Morleys, lord
president of the council, were present
nnd discussed the Scutari problem.:
It Is understood the conference adheres
to Its decision that Montenegro must
evacuate Scutari, but Is Indisposed to
acquiesce In Austria's demand that the
powers undertake to compel evacuation
by arms. No demand has been formally
sent to the Cettlnje government and
probably nothing will be done In this re
spect until after the next meeting of the
conference Monday, when Sir Edward
Gray, the British foreign minister, who
has been absent from London this week,
will preside over tho deliberations.
The Montenegrin crown prince, Danelo,
made his formal entry Into Scutari yes

pointed military governor of the city and
M. Plamcnatz, former charge d'affaires

Into Scutari today and It is understood
he will proclaim his Intention to move his

In a state of such extreme exhaustion
from lack of food that Easad Pasha had
been threatened with death unless he
agreed to capitulate.
When the victors entered they were
surrounded by half-starved men and
women clamoring for food. The hospi
tals also were in horrible condition. Un
burled and semi-decomposed corpses were
lying about the streets and in the houses,
many people were found dead or dying
of exhaustion.

In the last few days of the siege when
over Essad Pasha appeared in publlo he
was followed by groups of desperate,
famished natives, demanding "bread or
surrender."
Tho Montenegrins alleviated the Im

King Nicholas of Montenegro has dis
patched three boats to Scutari laden with

Making Trip Down
the River Potomac
WASHINGTON. April 36.-i-Pre3l.dent
Wilson left the White House early today
nnd boarded the government yacht Sylph
for a trip down the Potomac to the Vir
ginia capes and back. He expected to be
away until some tim tomorrow. Secre
tary Tumulty prescribed the trip as a re
laxation and sent Dr. Cary Grayson,
naval aide at tho White House, to see
that the president did absolutely no work.
The president has been working under
pressure lately, the Japanese question In
California, the tariff problem and the
Mexican situation having occupied his
mind, as well as troublesome questions
of appointments.
Mrs. Wilson had lome engagements for
the day, so the president was accom

Miss Eleanor. No correspondents accom
panied him, but the yacht was to keep in
touch with the navy yard by wireless.
In accordance with the president's de
Blre for a quiet and unostentatious de
parture, the customary salute was not
fired. As the Sylph weighed anchor at
10 o'clock the American flag on the
White House was lowered for the first

papers or letters. It was said that the

airs. La Follette'n Address.
Mrs. La Follette argued that womet
were as vitally Interested' In tariff legis
lation as the men and declared that every
Important piece of legislation before con
gress In the last twenty-five years hai1
affected women equally.
"If the tariff In- any way affects thi
price we pay for what we cat and wear;
If the combinations have anything to du
with the high cost of living, women
should understand about It," said Mrs
La Follette. "If the price of the great
staples, like beef, sugar, oil, cotton anu
woolens, are fixed by monopoly: If the
tariff affects the coat of children's food
and clothes, the only radical way to right
the wrong Is through national legisla
tion. "Women do the buying. Ninety pel
cent of HO.000,000.000, paid out annually In
tho United States for food, clothing, shel
ter. Is spent by women."
Mrs. La Follette said she was not oik
of those who believed that equal suffrage
would bring about any Immediate radical
changes, and declared that the real Issue
In the struggle was whether It was In the
Interest of home and society, which she
maintained It was.
Miss Helen Varrlck Boswell argued that
a federal law would be the quickest and
surest way to procure equal suffrage,
and Mrs. William Kent sold that women
suffrage had worked welfare In Cali
fornia. Dr, Anna Sliutv Closes.
Dr. Shaw made the concluding argu
ment "Wo are not afraid of the body of"
ladles who are going up and down the
land opposing suffrage," said she. "They
are Just enough In number so that by
holding out their skirts they can make n
screen for the men operating dens ol
vice and iniquity and prostitution to hide
behind. In every state where women now
vote, suffrage was opposed by the forces
of evil, for they know that we propose
to make this country a place of safety
where parents can see their daughters
go to school In the morning and feel that
they will return, ond where a man need
not fear to send his little girl ' on an
errand through city streets.
"We will come again and again and
again. Our children will come and our
grandchildren will come until this Is a
democracy In fact."
Glfford Plnchot made a brief speech.
"O course we all know that equal suf
frage Is coming; the only question Is in
what form," be concluded.
