STIR IN HOUSE HAPPY IN CELL
Representative Moore, Pennsyl
vania Republican, Answers the
Questions He Framed.
WASHINGTON, April 25.—Con-
gresssman J. Hampton Moore, a Penn
sylvania Republican, found a new
way to deliver a tariff speech in the
House to-day. Mr. Moore conducted
tariff “catechism” by having the
House clerk read questions ,t)ie mem
ber had prepared and which Moore
iswered from the floor. ,
The catechism began when the
clerk asked: “When was the first tar
iff act passed?” Questions and an
swers then took tariff legislation step
by step up to the Underwood bill,
which was “roasted” by Mr. Moore.
Moore called his si>eech a “tariff
primer,’’ and the spectacle was with
out precedent in the House. Con
gressman Moore explained he took
this unusual method of speechmaking
following the “Stop. Look. Listen.”
example of President Wilson, who,
a few days ago, addressed the House
on the tariff issue. |
Why the Payne Bill Passed.
“Wiiy was the Payne bill passed?”
Moore was asked. *
‘Becaues the Democrats were con
tinuously misrepresenting the tariff
question,” said "Pupil” Moore.
‘Did the Payne bill revise the tariff
downward ?”
“It did. and equalized many duties.”
“If the people enjoyed such won
derful progress under the Payne law,
why did they complain?”
They listened to ambitious politi-
ians, agitators without consciences,
journalistic organs with axe^ to grind,
magazines seening pap, essayists who
found it more profitable to write fic
tion than to work, theoretical college
professors, non-producers and a few
sincere reformers usually misinformed
and frequently misled. ” answered
Moore.
The clerk then asked Moore what
was meant by the Wilson-Underwood
bill.
Takes Slap at President.
“The bill introduced by Chairman
Underwood, exponent in the House
of the theories of President Wilson
was Moore’s reply.
Congressman Moore also got in a
shot at the “distressing consequences”
of Democratic power in the nineties,
which were followed py a return to
Republicanism and the enactment of
the Dingley law. The industries of
the country, he answered, thrived
both under the Dingley and Payne
laws, but many of them would be
wrecked under the Underwood bill.
Mr. Moore declared that President
Wilson favored the breaking up of
industrial establishments if they can
not operate on equal terms with those
abroad.
“In what respect has the gentleman
from Alabama Indorsed the views of
President Wileon?” he was-asjlrSd.
Attacks Income Tax, Too.
“In shaping his tariff bill so as to
discourage American enterprise and
industry and encourage foreign com
petition to the end that cheaper goods
shall be supplied, though their Wages
be lowered and their employment
taken away.
“The Underwood bill threatens thq
destruction of the sugar industry, me
naces the cotton and wool industries,
and, while admittedly destroying
$100,000,000 worth of revenue collected
at the customs houses from importers
of foreign commodities, attempts to
make up that deficiency by an income
tax levied directly upon some of the
people and only some of the •'people
whose offense ip that they have been
more industrious and thrifty.”
Underwood Not to
Allow “Gag Rule.”
minute rule, or the greater part of it,
would be eliminated and the bill
brought to the stage of final passage
next Tuesday. Minority Leader Mann
said there was no disposition on the
part of the Republicans to filibuster.
He insisted that the bill should have
a fair amount of discussion.
Secretly, Republicans would wel
come the passing of a gag rule, as
they claim it would give them cam
paign matter.
WASHINGTON. April ^.—Demo
cratic Leader Underwood to-day was
subjected to much pressure to hasten
the passage of the tariff revision, bill
in thi* House. He refused, though, to
allow any gag rule to be brought in
until a reasonable amount of debate
has been allowed.
Representative Hardwick, of Geor
gia, is trying to adopt a special rule

Mrs. Jack Mashburn Rejoices as
Husband No. 2 Is Freed by
Atlanta Police.
Df-spite the fact that she was or
dered held by Justice Ridley in bond
of $7u0 for bigamy, Mrs. Jack Mash
burn, the 17-year-old LaGrange girl
who openly scorned C. W. Smith, a
L.aOfttng’e farmer, Husband No. 1,
when they met in, court, to-day de
clared that she i» supremely happy.
Smilingly coyly, she said;
"You know, ]"m happy for two great
reasons. The first Is that Jack, my
darling Jack, was turned loose and
didn’t have to go to jail. The second
reason is that. 1 know that true iovo
will triumph.
“My first marriage with that coun
tryman, Smith, doesn't count at all,”
she continued, with a merry laugh.
The trouble with him is that he was
trying to interfere with true love, and
he got bumped. He knows I don’t love
him and never loved him. and why
doesn't he let me alone in my joy .
Swears Loyalty to Mashburn.
She insisted she would stick to
Mashburn, no matter what the out
come of her case.
“They may send me to the peni
tentiary, but 1 would c laim my love
when I got out,” she said.
“If these judges and officers only
knew just how my heart is bulging
out with love for my dear Jack they’d
have human feeling and sympathy
enough to turn me loose.
“But then they’ve turned Jack loose,
anyway, and this makes me happy.
Oh, I wouldn't have him to suffer for
anything. They can do whatever
they may with me, but I don’t want
them to harm Jack.
“You know this is the way I feel
about It—-love is the whole thing with
a girl, and I think she should have
full swing when It comes to love.
Every girl should marry the man she
loves, no matter what obstacles are
placed in her path. She should let
no one persuade her to do otherwise.
I listened to persuasion and allowed
myself to be forced into a loveless
marriage. You see the consequences.
It has brought down on me all of this
trouble.
Her Love Philosophy.
“If a girl wishes to be happy in
matrimony she should choose for her
self—follow the dictates of her own
heart and conscience. There may be
certain traits in a man’s character
that will cause a certain girl to fairly
adore him, while they might not at
tract the attention of other persons.
Hence, when a girl feels real, true
love,, she should cherish it and put
il abdve the likes and dislikes and
whims' of others.
'’‘By 1 listening to others instead of
to the’‘promptings of my own heart,
you see. I’m stamped as a bigamist
But I don't feel that I'm a bigamist,
because I don’t consider that 1 was
ever married to Charlie Smith.”
Mrs. Mashburn was put under $700
bond by Justice Ridley, when her
counsel. Colonel E. A. Jones, of La-
Grange. waived preliminary hearing.
The case of Mashburn was dismissed,
as the prosecution had no evidence
to show that he had any knowledge
that the girl had another husband at
the time he married her.
Sheriff O. H. Florence and Deputy
Sheriff Gus Reed, who came here to
take Mrs. Mashburn back to La-
Grange in the event she was not held
by the Atlanta court, have returned
to LaGrange.
Kirkland May Quit
As Vanderbilt Head
Chancellor John H. Kirkland, of Van
derbilt University, who is in Atlanta
to attend the Southern Sociological
Congress,, may become president of the
University of Arkansas, at Fayetteville,
on or about June 1, according to a press
dispatch received in Atlanta to-day.
Chancellor Kirkland, when questioned
concerning this report declared that he
had made no arrangements to leave
Vanderbilt' and had received no offer
from the trustees of the Arkansas insti
tution at this time. He added that a
year ago he was tendered the presi
dency of the University of .Arkansas and
declined it. The office is still vacant.
It is probable, therefore, that the Ar
ansas college board contemplates re
opening last year’s negotiations.
