WASHINGTON, April 27.-The debate in the
senate this afternoon took a more decided
partisan turn than any yet during the present
session. 1t was over the bill to repeal section
1,21S Of the revised statues, which prohibits
those connected with the rebellion from hold
ing position in the United States army.
Senator Edwards said he regarded 1t as an
effort of the Democrats to repeal legislation
intended to maintain the results OF the
war. He spoke of the attempts
of the Democrats in the last congress to re-
peal war legislation by means of "Riders" on
appropriations. He said he was ready now
and at all times to meet and resist these efforts
of the Democrats.
Beck and Vest made speeches from the
Democratic side claiming that the sentiment
of the country is adverse to mai ntainiug war
memories.

RAILROADS.
At present the only railroad facilities fur.
Lished are those offered by the Northern Pa.
cific, but a company has been formed entitled
the Valley City & Turtle Mountain railroad,
with capital of 100000, which has been
voted 100000 by the county, and who pro-
pose to build to the southwark from this
point to connection with the Northwestern
or Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul, and north
ward through the famous Devils Lake"
country to Turtle Mountain, where vast beds
of coal are to be found.
This project is assured and only requires
the necessary time to be contaminated. AL
though wheat raising is the present chief
mode Of farming, there are those who believe
in stock raising, at least to such an extent as
to satisfy the home demand.
Some even dare to dream of the time when
this great section shall produce, in addition to
the finest wheat, the finest stock IN the world,
SO that the necessity for trip to Kentucky to
buy fine blooded horse may be abandoned,
and superior horse or neat cattle
can be purchased at home. Among
those are notably Mr.. c. F. Kin.
dred, who is gathering some very
excellent blooded stock at his place two miles
north of Valley City, which he hopes some
day to make great stock and breeding farm.
He has lately purchased fine tract of land
near the city which Is admirably adapted for
mile track and which he is at present busy ar.
ranging for the purpose OF summer meetings.
The track will be absolutely level, without
single dip, and lumber for the necessary
stables and other buildings is already on the
ground. There is fair prospect of the for
nation of circuit to embrace the towns of
Wahpeton, Fargo, Moorhead, Crookston,
Grand Forks, Pembina, Bismarck, jamestown
and Valley City, to be called the cred River
and Missouri Valley Circuit, /" of which Valley
City will be very important point.
From the recital of the interests of this most
interesting city as well as the opening descrip-
ton of the location anu character of soil of
Barnes county, together with the fine engrav-

arthur on Ari.ona Troubles.

WASHINGTON, April, pa message from
the president to congress this afternoon re.
cites that there is great lawlessness In Arizona;
that the governor reports that violence and
lawlessness reign there. Robbery ard murder
are common and the citizens are alarmed.
That cowboys cause this trouble. To sup
press this the president recommends that the
army be permitted to co operate with the civil
authorities; that soldiers be permitted to be
employed in that territory as posse commit
atus. Referred to the judiciary committee.
THE PRESIDENTS RECOMMENDATIONS.
The message sent to congress by the presi-
dent calls attention to the necessity for
prompt repressive measures of the cowboy
disturbances in Arizona, which have gained
such Roadway as to require a resort to extra
ordinary remedies. In view of the inability
of the civil authority to restore order, the
president suggests the use of a part of the
army as posse comitatus and recommends
the passage of bill enabling measure with
this end in view.

Gratis from the Pacific coast had not been
consulted as to the needs of their constituents,

The Star Route Trial.
CoNTUMAoIoUs COUNSEL.

CONTUMACIOUS COUNSEL.
WASHINGTON, April 26.-Reidelle's case
came up in the police court again TO-DAY.
Elk postmaster General James and ex- Attorney
General MacVeagh were present as witnesses.
The defense insisted upon reading the entire
warrant before the examination of witnesses
began.
At 2:45 the reading of the indictment was
finished and before the arraignment, Williams
filed motion in arrest OF the warrant. The
court declined to hear the argument thereon
at this time and directed the examination of
witnesses to proceed. McVeagh was then
sworn and testified.
Merrick asked if he remembered the CONVEX =.
satiOn with Rerdell about the mail service,
and the parties associated with him in the
contract?
Williams raised the objection that this mat
ter was not cotained in the warrant, and the
question was not applicable to the case. The
court said the objection might be made at the
proper point, when Bliss said, impatlently
s'YOur honor, this is only done to waste time
Indignantly to Bliss, Williams said he could
not know of this motive, and the assertion
was base.
A scene followed. Chandler, of counsel for
the defense said conspiracy could not be es.
tablished by what such witness could say.
The point was overruled and the witness pro.
ceeded. Rerdell told him that ex-senator
Clayton, Arkansas, was present when he had
| made his former statement to the postmaster
general and Woodward. Kendell said he was
party to large extent in the previous mail
letting.
Postmaster General James testified that
he had an interview with Rerdell about mai
contract matters. Clayton had come to the
Arlington hotel with Rerdell and had intro
duced him to witness. Rerdell had presented
books and transcripts containing accounts oil
the transactions of Dorsey and others.
The cross examination of Mr.. James took
up the remainder of the day.

The political pot boils and bubbles in
the State of New York. The factions
furnish the fuel The Stalwarts and
Half-breeds are at it. Conkling and Jay
Gould, and the Independent Herald and
Republican Times are after the scalps of
Gov. Cornell and the editor of the ALBANY
Beenang Journal. They have fixed a
question of veracity on the Governor,
and he is struggling, seemingly against
odds, to extricate himself. An issue of
veracity is no strange thing in politics,
but it usually has two sides so evenly
balanced that it generally does
not amount to any fixed sum
either way. But in this alleged
case of attempted bribery on the part of
Gould and Conkling, the Governor does
not seem to make good his charges with
sufficient evidence, though in fact the
evidence may exist. How to get it ire
fragibly before the public is the puzzle.
His opponents jeer him, believing that he
is "the under dog in the fight" The
Herald deplores the surprising fact that
such man could have reached the guber-
material chair, but congratulates the pub
tic that he can never again achiev- sue
cess as candidate for Governor. Cor.
ruption may work its own cure, for when
rogues fall out startling sensational truths
come 10 the surface.
