MR. TRIBBLE. Did we not pass
a bill at the last session of Congress,
Lhe Loil-Bcott bill, for which I voted,
and did you not vote for it, and
lo y:;ii tiink that showed we
•hit. 1-ejislv.tion? It is not fair <to say
Memb r;i do not want legislation be
c an S 3 they refuse the makeshifts of
f r! Tiatx ad of the real legislation
do ir, .1 b;. Members.
MR. UNDERWOOD. If you do
war. this legislation, send this bill
ha ic .■> conference and we will try
to v.crk it out. If you do not want
Du' iation, vote that you refuse to
rere lo, and you will not get It.
■Hi. TRIBBLE. Will the conference
committee report back to the House
th l.ell-Scott bill which we passed
at the las', session if so instructed?
MR. UNDERWOOD. The Scott
bill '.a not in conference, and the
conferees have no jurisdiction to act
on taat bill. It must come from the
Agriculture Committee.
MR. TRIBBLE. »I am unalterably
opposed to gambling in any form. I
am also opposed to legalizing gam¬
bling by assessing a tax on gambling
No one can deny the proposition
that this amendment legalizes gamb¬
ling in cotton futures by imposing tax
on future sales and thereby legal¬
ise the transaction. If men are al¬
lowed to gather in a room and there
p’ay and bet on cards, by the Georgia
laws this is an illegal transaction,
and the men would be liable to prose¬
cution; but if the State of Georgia
should charge 50 cents per game and
pay this tax into the treasury, the
state would legalize the game; so
would the National Government.
I stand here to fight shoulder to
shoulder with the friends of the far¬
mer to destroy forever the cotton ex¬
changes or the gambling on the cot¬
ton of the farmer. I voted last see*
sion for the Bell-Scott bill that would
destroy he cotton exchanges*, and I
hope to see such a biill passed by
this House and become a law but I
will not vote for a measure that legal¬
izes gambling in cotton, futures by
taxing cotton futures and not only
legalizing the transaction but de¬
claring to the world our approval of
cotton exchanges and bidding them
Godspeed. I am opposed to the
principle of taxing cotton. It is a
dangerous precedent for the South¬
ern farmer to tax his cotton in any
form. In my opinion it will he a sad
day for the South when the tax gath¬
erer of the National Gove ament lays
his hand on cotton to collect tax for
any purpose.

The “Supreintendent of Transporta¬
tion,” Mrs A. E. Meadow, 1401, 11th

take charge of you as soon as you
are “on board” and you will have no

Whether you are a “White Ribbon

Emperor Williams of Germany on
Aug. 28th made public the announce¬
ment that ffrom not on he would not
tiisste malt, or vinous liquors of any
kind. W ith the Kiaser a teetotaler
we hope the Germans will drink less
beer, and that the time will soon
ccme when the American people will
refuse to vote for any man unless he
is a teetotaler.
It is cause for regret that a Chica¬
go brewer has been appointed min-,
icter from this country to the Balkan
States. Could not some man have bee
found for the place who is sober, and
who is not engaged in a business
that debauches the people for the
sake of gain?
