yield rich returns. The people are intelligent,
prosperous and happy.
Your committee especially regret all those
expressions found in the message which tend
to create class prejudice, and believe such ex-
pressions from the Executive do not tend to
advance the honor and dignity of our beloved
State in the estimation of our own citizens,
nor to exalt it among its sister States, but
rather to excite discomfort with our inStitu-
tons and destroy that patriotic sentiment so
essential for the support of a free government
The permanence of representative govern
ment depends in great measure upon the in
telligence and harmony of the people, in
whom all power resides. Public tranquility is
necessary to public prosperity. Whatever
tends to arouse distrust and prejudice in the
minds of the people, weakens the ties which
bind society together and thereby endangers
the Commonwealth. If by such appeals party
success is promoted for the hour, it is at the
expense of a sound and healthy public sent-
ment, which is necessary to the harmony and
progress of the State The. road to fortune
and honorable prefernient should be open to
every citizen, and success should not be count
ed disgrace to any man. And your commit
tee cannot believe that the people of this State
are jealous of any man who by industry, enter
prise and courage achieves even large for
tune. This country invites all men to enter
the field of honorable competition, and offers
ample rewards to honest industry. Upon that
field the people Of this State are ready to take
thciI part confident of the future as they have
been successful in the past.

Revenue Surplus.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE Secretary es-
Inmates ahat he will have 1926, 100000 surplus
revenue during the remainder of the fiscal
year. Of this amoant $13, 100000 will be de-
voted to buying bonds on account Of the sink
ing fund, and the balance to the purcease of
bonds on general account. The purchase will
probably not be made weekly, but at the con-
venience of the department.
The Organization of the Senate.
Senators Allison, Ferry, Plumb, Cameron
and Logan, committee of the Republican
caucus, will to-day draft list of committees,
which will be offered as a substitute for the
Democratic list now before the Senate. Their
adoption will rest with Gen. Mahone unless
some Democrat is disposed to permit the
Republicans to control the Senate appoint
ments. 1t is probable that Senator
Conkling will be made chairman
of the Committee on Foreign Relations; SEN
ator Sherman, chairman of the Committee on
Finances; Senator Allison, chairman of the
Military Committee, and Senator Don Gamer
on, chairman of the Committee on Naval
Affairs, but nothing definite has been decided
upon. 1t may be that Democratic Senators
will be named as the chairmen of ten
committees, which will do much towards
smoothing over existing difficulties, and will
not force Gen. Mehone to vote against Cen
Maxey and other personal Democratic friends.

ANOTHER STORM.

The Northwest Again Buried in Snow.
MILWAUKEE, March IA heavy snowfall
began this morning at o'clock and continues
furiously. The snowfall is one of the heaviest
of the season, and everything bids fair to be
blockaded again. Trains are blocked in every
direction by the snow. The freight business
is entirely suspended and passenger trains are
all late, those nearest on time being two hours
behind. In the city the snow was wet and
heavy. Outside it seems to have been four to
twelve inches deep, and to have extended west
into Nebraska, east into Indiana north as far
as Minnesota, and south as sar as the southern
part of this State.
CHICAGO, March 12-Reports to the Western

A Story about Malone.

washington hepuDllcau.J
Virginia's new Senator-elect is physically q
man in miniature. Mentally, if his opponents
are fit Judges he weighs something like ton;
but on the scale he tips the beam at less than a
hundred pounds. In appearance he is as lean
and thin as greyhound; and it is doubtful if
his avoirdupois in gross could be made to yield
adipose sufficient to Intricate the wing of a
humming bird. The following pretty good
story illustrative of his exceeding leanness is
told Of him. During the war while in command
OF division of Confederates, he like many
others, had the misfortune to be wounded; but
as it happened on that occasion, not seriously.
An acquaintance, about to visit Richmond,
was requested TO call upon the Generals wife
for the purpose of relieving any anxiety she
might feel on account of her absent lord by ex-
planning the nature and extent of his injury.
Col. - called at the lady's residence, and, as
report goes, fonnd her in tears, she having al
ready received the news of her husbands
wounding by telegraph. The officer attempted
to reassure her by the statement that the Gen.
eral would be on duty again in few days, but
without avail.
"Why, madam" he expostulated, you
ought not to give yourself so much concern; he
received only flesh-wound; no bones are
broken"
"Ah, Colonel" she sobbed, "you-don't
know th'-the General as we'll as II do or
you would not tell NINE he could be-be
wounded without strik-striking a bone''
OF course nothing more could be said.
