IBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.l
WASHINGTON, May 20.-It is understood that
Ignatius Donnelly has presented to the House
Committee on Elections his bill for services rem
dercd to the Democracy by contesting the seat OF
Mr.. Washburn.
The amount of this bill Is about 81 200. Some OF
the items appear to be suggestive. For example, it
is said that there is charge of 81 900 for cash paid
to Messrs johnson and Poe. for lrofes,iOnal
services before the special committee appointed to
investigate and ascertain who wrote the anOny-
mons letter to Chairman Springer
Why Donnelly should employ counsel to protect
himself in this investigation, or, if he has done so.
why tho United States should be called upon to
pay said counsel, it will puzzle most people to
imagine. 1t really looks like an ingenious dodge
of DOnnelly to compel the Government 10 pay
counsel fees to defend the mysterious Colonel
Finley, who appears in the position of defendant
in the investigation mentioned. But it is said
that tho name of Colonel Finley himself appears in
the bill presented by DOnnelly appended to
receipt for $500 for professional services in the
contested election case of DOnnclly against WASH
burn.
Several members of tho House have, 1t Is re-
ported expressed desire that Colonel Finley
should present an itemized account. lie never
appeared before the Elections Committee i'll the
capacity Of counsel for Donnclly, and the mcm-
hers of that Committee did not suspect that he was
Donuclly's counsel until he BwOrc To tho fact
recently. The curiosity to see his account
itrmizrtl therefore, springs from desire to know
how much Colonel Finley charged Tor Wrtlng the

for laying the" whole caseriore Our friends IN New
York" through Alderman Tuomcy, eX-i-leutenant-

A GRANT RESOLUTION SPRUNG ON THE ILLINOIS

NEBRASKA DECLARKs BLAINE HER CHOICE
THE ALABAMA CONVENTION ORGANIZING.
In the Illinois Convention yesterday, the
Chicago delegates were compelled to accept a
compromise which excluded thrty-six of their
number, and gave their places to Grant men.
The Convention subsequently adopted an ap-
parently unexpected resolution, declaring that
Grant was its choice for President. The vote
ON this was 396 to 307. The Nebraska Re-
publlcans elected solid Blaine delegation to
Chicago. The Alabama Republicans elected a
Grant delegate chairman, and were in session
at late hour.

Advertisers who want to reach the people Of

There is a constant call upon us to make selec.
tion for advertisers and to favorable prices at
which advertising may be secured
There Is a wide difference between the prices de-
manded by newspapers for an advertisement to be
inserted amonh and one which to appear for year.
Experienced and successful advertisers contract for
thelongest PERIOD but there are many who are pre-.
vented from doing this by the nature of their adver
tsement. or because the advertisement Is one which
they wish try experimentally before making con.
tracts for any extended time.
Bearing in mind the wants of advertisers we have
agreements with leading local papers in every State
by which We insert advertisements for a single
month at prices approximating the yearly rate
So great is the reduction from regularly monthly
rates, that advertisers do not understand how the
advertising can be secured for the price which VIC

Pense's FNIsity.

Some remarks made by Ex-Governor
Pease in the Austin convention were GER
tainly in very bad taste, and do little credit
to the gentleman's reputation for truth and
fair dealing. He said that in portions of
Texas there arc certain classes which the
laws did not protect, and that optraees were
committed which have escaped official re.
Duke or displeasure. Governor Pease has
sense enoug h to know that the statement is
false. The laws of Texas throw their pro-
tecting aegis around the lowest as well as the
highest, around the black as well as tho
white, and while Observation-Disclosures offend
ers have escaped the justice which
should be melted out to them, yet it was not
for want of effort that such was the result.
Criminals escape in every country. Simply
for the reason that some evaded arrest in
Texas is no cause for arraigning the admin
istraton and the officers in every county as in
league with murderers and thieves. Cover
nor Pease made his appeal to the passions OF
his party, but it is such an outrageous one
that it will fall still born. The days of re-
construction are over, and every plea of the
distinguished ex. Governors for anarchy will
be treated as his plea to Hancock to establish
martial law all over Texas was treated.
