and Col. Crooks bills, and showed that the
first mentioned bill would satisfy the debt alb
solutely, and leave no taxes to be levied In the
future. The Senator then called the attention
of the Senate to the constitutional provision,
prohibiting the issuing Of bonds in excess Of
81, 500, 900, except in case of war or Invasion,
and wanted the opinion of the supreme court
on that provision, In connection with the
other questions proposed to be submitted.
Senator Pillsbury, in reply to Mr.. Kinds,
said that the proposition submitted by the ju-
dietary committee was to pay the bonds out of
the internal revenue lands. The bill proposed
by himself proposed to pay SOC in bonds, and
let 1t draw interest after 1884. The assertion
that Chamberlain's bonds cost but SOC on the
dollar was about as near the fact as to say
that the United States received but 40c
on the dollar for the bonds 1t has issued. He
held the settlement OF these bonds could not
be construed as contracting an Indebtedness.
He showed that to pay the interest on the
bonds, without any aid from the Improvement
lands, would make the entire. levy for State
purposes and all only one and a half mills, and
showed that that was less than most of the
Eastern States pay.

consumed as usual in the reading of bills
on their introduction, and nearly all of
them were ordered to third reading. In

lost. The latter were Mr.. Dunn's bill
designed to relieve an alleged murderer in
Winona county by making the evidence

THERE is some talk of Hayes veto Of
the funding bill in case both houses of
Congress should agree to its provisions.
1t is doubtful, however, if Hayes will sig
nalize his exit from office by an act of
such folly. 1t appears that the govern
ment has assurances that all the bonds
required to be taken can be negotiated at
the rate of interest prescribed, and any
veto would have the appearance of being
an effort to play into the hands of the
money lenders. Mr.: Hayes would scarcely
dare to do this.

SENATE.

The bills providing for the payment OF
the old Minnesota State railroad bonds
were before the. Senate yesterday after
noon and evening, and lively fight took
place. Senator Pillsbury was the leader
of the friends of the bills, and had fol-
lowing of twenty-four. Senator Kinds
bore the brunt of the battle on the part
of the opposition, and mustered eight in
his little army The friends of the bond
bills had but little to say, appearing to
think the tactics of the opposition would
be of dilatory character, and it proved
that their surmises were correct, when
Mr.. limbs delivered speech two hours
and a half in length. At the evening
session the bills were fought at consider
able length, both in debate and by mo-
tions to adjourn, call of the Senate, ETC.,
but the result was to engrosS the bills for
third reading and final passage to-day.

A publication known as the Daily Herald
published on Friday last an article making
grave charges against E. Douglass, IAN ex- Con-
gregationalist minister, who now runs an EN-.
ployment and real estate Office. The charges
were that he took improper liberties with girls
who came to his office to look for situations
The names of some of the parties who made
the complaints were given and the article con-
cluded by demanding thai. the charges be in
yestigated, and offering to furnish further evil
dence. The sheet now states "that after an
explanation by Mr.. Douglass they find that
the statements of the females were given I'M
der wrong impression and that Mr. Doug
lass is worthy the confidence and respect that
he has heretofore possessed in the communi-
ty." This denial may change the opinion of
those who read it, and for this reason Mr..
Douglass desires it published.

il debt. The legislature has been kept
busy for weeks in passing bills author
ling school districts, towns, villages,

amount of bonds authorized to be issued
thus far will largely exceed two millions

WE trust the chamber of commerce
will no longer set up as a champion for
economy and low taxation. When that
body deliberately voted to ask authority
for $50, 900 in bonds to buy the bluff on

its last croak. There could neither be
more unwise or more profiigate expendi-
