persons. Travellers seem to have
suffered more from the cold than
native. It has been a quiet freeze,
not a blizzard, and there are no har.
rowing tales Of lost children frozen
to. death on the prairies. But the.
intense cold has almost checked the
running Of trains in the region af-
fected. An engine is a thing oflife,
like q man or a horse, and intense
cold checks its life and prevents its
movements. It was cold and not
snow that stopped trains in the RI
yer country yesterday. With con-
gealcd oil in their journals, frozen
water in their tanks and chilled and
brittle rails under their wheels, the
regular and rapid running of trains
was peril and an impossibility.
The delays that are noted elsewhere
are not Of a dangerous sort, how.
ever, and the return Of moderate
degree OF refrigeration will release
the embargoed trains, without the
campaign of snow-shovels necessary
after a great storm. Like the great
cyclone Of last summer, this freeze
IS not native Minnesota product.
It is frigid Importation from the
land Of British ice and aboriginal
snow, a hideous specter from the
northwest wastes. riding into Uncle
Sans dominions upon the frozen
crest of a Manitoba wave. It is
supposed the spirit thermometer is
frozen in Winnipeg. 4..

Peter Cooper, in indianapolis Journal Interview.
'sWhy, at the Third Congress Of
the United States, held in Philadel.
phia in 1898, the Senate passed re
solution as follows" (hunting and
finding one Of his proofs):" Any
person holding any office or any
stock in any institution in the ma.
ture of a bank for issuing or dis.
counting bills or notes payable to
bearer or order, cannot be a member
Of the House whilst he holds such
office or stock It passed the Senate
with but two dissenting votes, and
passed the House and became law
here it's, bearing the signature Of
George Washington President, and
John Adams, Vice. President, ap..
proving Of it. It never was repeal
ed--never, "he exclaimed and it is
on the statute books as law to-day.
Yet. l suppose more than half the
members Of Congress own bank
stock. A recent Congress, on the
authority of Congressman Field,
was composed of 100 bankers, 80
lawyers, IA merchants, 10 manu-
facturers, Z doctors, 4 mechanics.
and not a farmer or day laborer!' (.
