HOUSE.

Washington, 20.-A resolution was
adopted calling on the secretary of
the interior for information az to the
amount of the land subsidy granted to
the St. Joseph and Denver City Rail
road Company, the disposition made
of these lands, and why said road has
not been completed to the junction
with the Union Pacific Railroad at
Kearney, Neb.
The speaker proceeded ID call com.
mittees for reports Of private nature.
The Senate joint resolution was
passed authorizing the secretary OF
the navy to designate vessel of the
United States to carry, free of charge,
contributions for the relief OF the poor
of Ireland.
After the morning hour the Hous g
went into committee on revision
of the rules. The third clause, rule
"a, provides that all appropriation
bills or bills involving tax or charge
upon the people, shall be first con-
sidereG in committee of the whole.
Davis submitted an amendment
providing that that clause shall be
suspended when the amount involved
exceeds $4,000
Sanford submitted an amendment
as q substitute, providing that bills
may be passed under suspension of
the rules by tWo-thirds vote, without
going into committee of the whole.
Rejected.
Mills submitted an amendment to
rule "a, in relation to the order oil
business, providing that resolutions of
inquiry introduced On Monday sh, Il
lie on the table to be called up for
action at any time after the expira-
ton of the week. Adopted.
Gillett submitted an amendment
providing that each member shall
be entitled to introduce one bill on
one general subject during each
Congress, and report the same on
his own authority for reference to its
proper committee. He argued in
support of his amendment which
would tend to destroy the Chinese
wall OF distinction, which had ben
built between half dozen members
and the rest of the House. Over 100
members had come here pledged to
restore to the nation control of the
circulating medium of the country
and yet the only committees which
could report such a bill remained
dumb. The amendment was rejected,
yeas so, nays, 95.
Money submitted an amendment
providing that when any bill is re-
ferred to a committee and not re-
ported within thirty days it shall be
in order for the introducer to intro
duce the bill again and it shall be
referred ID the proper calendar.
Pending action the committee rose.
King introduced a bill dividing
Louisiana into judicial districts.
Referred. Adjourned until Monday.

1EE LEGISLATURE.


The Legislature whose session is
drawing to q close as We write is de-
serving of more than ordinary praise.
Without disparaging past Assemblies /
by comparisons, We believe the facts
will bear out the truth of the asser-
ton that this has been the ablest
Legislature that ever convened in the
territory. It has certainly exhibited
commendatory traits in larger num-
Der than its predecessors. Little was
expected from the lawmakers, the
quite general impression being that
little was needed in the way CT legig-
lating. But the fact is much has
really been accomplished. We have
not list Of the bills that hsvs been
passed, but those persons WHO have
read the very fall reports of the pro-
ceedings as published daily in the
HERALD, know how faithfully the
members have put in their time, and
how industrious they have been in
their work for the general good of the
territory. Some very important laws
have been created-laWs that will be
found highly useful and beneficial in
the community. 1t has been re-
marked that the discussions have
been unusually free, the members
manifettipg a degree Of independence
and manliDess deserving of COM
mendation. With the exception of
one or two measures that
came up, the best good Of the whole
was the evident aim of the mem
bers. There was less selfshness than
usual manifested, and so far as We
have had opportunity to know, no.
vicious legislation has been consum-
mated.
Another noticeable circumstance Of
the session was the good feeling that
existed between the members and
the executive. Only as to some
minor matters has there been any
disagreement, and while the number
of vetoes is large, the legislators sd-
NIT that, with two or three excep-
tons, the objections TO the bills on
the part of the Governor and the
Acting Ex-Governor, Who oficiated dur
ing the early portion of the session,
we're well grounded. The members
themselves would have been sorry to
see on the statute books some bills
that were sent to the Governor. 1t
cannot be otherwise than gratifying
alike to the Legislators and the gentls'
men who have acted as chief exscu-
tive, tina. the mutual labors Of all
have been attended by so high a de-
gree of confidence in each other,
harmony, pleasant association and
good feeling.
| The HERALD will early endeavor 10
give a synopsis of the work performed
during the forty days; and now com.
pliments the lawmakers upon the
conclusion Of their labOrs, and the
termination of a successful and pro.
ftabls session of the territorial as.

Why Will YOu

Allow cold to advance in your sys'
tenn and thus encourage more serious
mslsdies, such as Pneumonia, Hem
orrhages and Lung troubles, when an
immediate relief can be so readily
attained. BOschee's German Syrup
has gained the largest sale in the
world for the cure of Coughs, Colds
and the severest Lung Diseases. 1t
is DR.. Boschee's famous German pre-
scripTion, and is prepared with the
greatest care, and no fear need be
entertained in administering it to the
child, as per directions.
The sale of this medicine is unprece-
dented. Since fret introduced there
has been q constant increasing de-
and without q single report OF
B failure to do its work in any case.
Ask your Druggist as to the truth of
these remarks. Large size rs cents.

DR. PRUDEN, of Benton, MIMI,
was noted for his vigorous discussion
of disputed points as to Bible text,
and the other evening be walked into
a prayer meeting with an open Bible

the room he stopped, and said there
had been altogether too much con-
troversy over the meaning of certain
passage in the book, and that he
meant to kill anybody who differed
from him on tbs subject. He had
gone crazy and was hurried of 10 the
