CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS
SENATE.

SENATE.
Washington. May Ex-senator Bay
ard reported to the house bill for the
exchange of subsidiary coin for legal
tender money and asked for its consid-
Grafton. 1t went over, under objec-
tion. Consideration was resumed of
legislative, executive and judicial ap-
preparation bill.
HOUSE.
Washington, May 13.-Shelly made
personal explanation, asserting that
the election in his district was peace
able, and that there had been no inter
ference with any voters, and no dis
turbance or disorder on the day of
election growing out of the election.
Russell followed with personal ex-
PLANTATION, in answer to the speeches
recently made by Kitchin and David
son. He made a severe attack OF
Kitchlp who, he said, was in possess
sion of IA seat and drawing salary, to
which he was in no way entitled, and
to whom he referred as a gentleman, so
called by courtesy of the house.
This called forth a fierce speech from
Kitchin, who referred to his colleague
as one of those men from the south who
had deserted their race and country
and home and flesh and joined the rag
tag and bob-tail of creation.
Knott called up the veto message,
and demanded the previous question
on the passage of the military interfer-
ende bill over the presidents veto.
The previous question was seconded,
and the house proceeded to vote.

Cooled Down a Little.

Washington, May 13.-There is no
change in the outlook or probabilities
concerning the action on appropriation
bills since last night, unless it be that
the hot heads who then seemed in as
cendant have to-day cooled down to
some extent. While this process con-
tinues, the more sagacious democratic
party leaders are wisely postponing any
call for caucus.

Indianapolis. jan. 20. WIN. f Merrick
and John Achey were hanged at 12 30 to-
day. Achey claimed that the crime was not

Of poisoned wine at saloon, and drove her

xeoHsoaHooo NEWS.

Real estate matters are on the increase in
Canton.
The round house .. Beloit is being built
before the depot.
Lincoln county warrants are at par, and
money in their treasury.

we'll will boss the making of 1t.
The rates that have been established on
the Pembina give general satisfaction.
Several car loads of coal we're disposed of
at Beloit, Lincoln county, before the cars
reached that place.
The Canton Advocate is 'desiEussed 10 do
the entire county printing, except the fur
nishing of blank books.
A social hop will be given in Canton on
the evening Of January 3lst, for the benefit
Of Beloit and Canton dancers.
The treasurer of Lincoln county is ready
and willing" to go for all persons who
don't pay their taxes. So says the Canton
News.
The flooring Of the new ware house at
Beloit gave way one day last week, dump
ing several hundreds of bushels of wheat to
the ground.
Three miles below Olivet, 10 a bend of
the Jim river. is the spot selected by Hon
Alfred Brown as grazing ground for an ex-
tensiye cattle herd.
There is soon to be an interesting joint
discussion between the members Of the
"Beloit Monday night club" and the Can.
ton young mems lyceum.
The Sioux Valley News feels good be-
cause its members have been placed upon
the most important legislative committees.
We all feel good about it.
Canton Advocate: The legislature at
Yankton have accepted the invitation of
President Wicker to "excurse' over the
road hitherward, and the time probably
will be about the 14th or 18th of February,
The Canton News remarks that Govern.
or Howard's message is an able production.
The same paper also says tina. the reap.
pointment of Secretary Hand is "a well de.
served tribute to thoroughly efficient off.
cer." The News is solid on truth.
Canton News: The cry about the enor-
nous exemption in Dakota is not warrant
ed by the facts. Several states have greater
exemptions than our territory and they are
prosperous too. Very likely the time will
come when less exemption will answer,
but that time has not yet arrived and we do
not believe the legislature will be so unwise
as to impair the present exemption law, no
matter what force may be brought to bear
upon it.

lished in various newspapers. They in
brief are that Judge Blodgett permitted two
notes to revert to their maker, A. c. Hes
sing, at a tum much less than they were
worth; that he caused records of transfer 10
be ma lie and conspired to prevent these rec
ords and orders secretly made from becom
ing public. Mr.. C.mpoell read long re-
ply prepared by Judge Blodgett, making

THE POTTER COMMITTEE

ciphers were in Morton's committee, and
others we're deciphering them.

the count, and stated, "state gone for Hayes"

ner, and the cipher used was arranged be-
fore General. Brady left Washington. His
cipher had been destroyed and he presumed
Tyner had destroyed his copy.
