The German Oberhaus, Wednesday, la
plenary session, began tbe dlsousslen of the
ecclesiastical bill. Prlnee Bismarck made a
long speech In defense et the measure. He
said :
In regard tetba question of religion orders
the chief point te be determined wss whether
Catholic eitlssns nsed tbe orders. 1 1 Is cer
tain that Catholics believe In the value el tbe
orders, and their sentiments should be eat
I.Hed in harmony with ths legislation of the
country. Tbe tate naturally had an Interest
In the geed training or priests. Hueb train

as at universities. Tbe bitterest enemiea or
tbe government oamerrem unlveraltlee, net

Referring next te the law requiring eooleal eeoleal eoeleal

their functions under the very eyes el ths
government changed their dl.poaltlensaaoon
ssthey became blabepa. The government
hsd net made tee large oenoeaalona te ths
Catholic nor had It glvsn up sny of Ita
sovereign rights. Hs hsd never desired a
lasting strutrgle with the curls. As
early as 1875 hs hsd called Cardinal
Antenelll'a attention te the danger pre
sented by ths fermstlen or a special
Catholic political party, and ever elnee the
curia had manirsetad apeaeerul disposition.
He bad prepared a pregramme or pesos, te
reallts which he bad new worked for ten
Esus. Through the proposals before tbe
euee be hoped te obtain a lasting peace,
ir that expectation should net be fulfilled
tbe measures new propewd oeuld easily be
rescinded. It waa necessary that the Centre
party, which entered Inte relations with all
the elements thst were hostile te the elate
end empire, be deprived or sll pretext for
opposition. It waa out et regard for the unity
of tbe nation, and became or tbe denser
threatening that unity, that he Initiated the
preeent eceie.la.tlcl bill, doing se with a
full recognition of hi. rmneelblllir. Whether
or net tbe bill would lead te the eetabliib
ment or a religion, peaee oeuld net yet be
known, aa the leadere el the Centre bad
S laced themselves In opposition te tbe pope.
Ie less dsngereus tnan the Pregressists were
the subversive tendencies or the lewerdergy,
In whose removal tbe pope end emperor have
an equal Interest. If tbe pontiff and the em

Ever slaes the Heuse passed tha reveaue
bill, after defeating tha clause exempting
manufacturing corperationa from taxation,
members et the legMatnre hsve been fairly
deluged with letters protesting against put
ting aueh a burden upon growing ladustrlea.
Representative Lead has received aa eepecl
ally large number of theaa pretests, and he
aald Wednesday night be wenid de all la hie
Kwer te seeure the reinsertion or tbe eUuse
. the Senate and tbe concurrence of the
Heuae.
Tbe bill waa considered Wednesday after,
neon by the Senate finance oemmlttee, be
fore whleb arguments In Its behalf were made
by Rufus E. Bhspley, Cyrus Elder, William
E. Littleton, Jobu Nnrrls, M. E. Olmsted
snd Auditor General Nile. On motion or
Mr. Maefarlsne, tbe oemmlttee voted te re
insert a el.use exempting net only manufac
turing corporations from taxation, but also
limited partnerships engaged In manufac
turing. On nsxt Wednesday Jehn O. Jehnsen and

the above as fellows :
Te thl Hen. Amni If.MjUnand th Iltn. JsAn
M. Hickman, Htnateri rem Lancaittr County i
Gbxtlbmen The Heuse et Representa
tive, hss stricken out of bill Ne. 200, gen
erally celled the Revenue BUI," the section
exempting manufacturing ceuipanlee from
tbe payment or atate Ux en tbelr caplUl
stock. If, therefore, the bill abeuld pa the
Senate In thl shape, such ecmpanle will
hereafter bs subject te a tax which we con
alder unjust and Inexpedient for the follow
ing among ether reasons :
isl Msnuraciuringeatablisnmentsirewned
by Individuals or Arms pay no atate tax; if
owned by a corporation formed by a number
et persona the tax la Imposed by bill 90, new
before the Senate. In ether words one rich
man or aeveral rich men may own a menu
factory and be exempt Irem taxation J but If
many men of limited caplul oemblne tbelr
mesne and own a eliullsr establishment they
are required te pay an onereua tax. ThU
discrimination we consider unjust.
2d. A stste tax en manufacturing corpora
tions will prevent tbe estslillsnment et man
ufacturing Industries among ua and tend te
weaken and denreaa these that at nraasnt ux.
Ut.
3d. Surrounding slates de net tax manu
facturing corperationa. A atate tax here will
tend te drive lndu.trle.et thl. character out
of the atate and thua badly cripple our prep
erty.
In view of these considerations we re
pectfully aak you aa aenater representing

There are In the United Sutea net lea than
90 000 physicians, 20,000 mere doctors than

The increase et physicians during the last
decade ia at least ten and a half per eent
greater than tbe percentage et increase of
population, and yet inaplte of thla deadly
advance the average of human lite remains st
31 years. Wben 1 remember that there are
2,750 different ways of writing a prescription,
I am aoeszed st msn's ingenuity, but I can
not bUme tbe outraged workmen for boycott
