IN SEN ATE

MIR. Hendricks, from the Committee on Roads
and Canals, to whom was referred the memorial of
the General Assembly of the State of Indiana, on
The subject ofthe location of ne Cumberland
Through that State, made report.
The memorial set forth, that direct line from
Columbus TO Indianapolis passes within one mile
OF Cenrevlle, and that straight line from Indiana
polls to Vandalia passes within FIVE miles of Terre
Haute: that the ground for the location through
those villages is favorable for road and the pros
perity OF those towns, and the interests of the
counties whose seats of justice they are, will be
much affected by the final determination of the
commissioner, In the location; and the memoriasts
request that Centreville and Terre Haute may be
made points the road. The Committee were in
favor of the prayer ofthe memorial; but, believing
that the object of tire memorial would be attained
under the direction of the Secretary of War, the
committee did not report bill, but asked leave TO
be discharged from the further consideration of the
subject, and they were discharged accordingly.
The resolutions submitted by Mr.. Smith, on the
I'd instant, and by Mr.. Hendricks yesterday, were
severally considered and concurred in.
The bill making appropriation for the support of
Government, for the year 1925, was read the third
time amended, passed, and returned to the other
House for concurrence in the amen dments.
On motion Of Mr.. Ellis, the preceding orders of
the day were postponed for the purpose of taking
up the bill to authorize the President of the United
States to hold treaty with the Choctaw and
Chickasaw tribes of Indians, and making appro-
pIiatons therefor; and the bill having been amend
ed, it was ordered 10 be engrossed for third read
ing.
On motion Of Mr.. Edwards, the Senate proceed
ed to the consideration OF Executive business; and
after some time spent therein,
Adjourned.

Others. Those who are over-ruled still owe t.-eir
aid. The minority must not sit down, and say we
will not assist. No; the majority would say you
to participate in all the benefits much as we
are, and you therefore contribute your aid the
common stock. The claim of the minority involves
the assertion Of the very principle they reject
They ask to be allowed to extinguish the power Of
the majority, in the proportion and TO the amount
OF their own stengh. This is to ask. in contest,
that the adversary party should only strike with
given force. The allowance of such claim would
be the principle denounced, of treating political
affairs as algetnaic equation, instead of a moral
calculation, in reference to public good.
