the republican side, at the first oppor-
tunity will move to have it taken up and
considered. /. This motion will be antag-
onizedlby Mr.. Kasson, who will move to
proceed to the consideration OF his bill,
and on this question of consideration
vote will be taken which will test the
strength of the two measures in the
house. The indications are that the
democratic members who will vote fer {.
civil service measure at all will vote for
the Pendleton bill. while republican
members may be about equally divided
as between the Pendleton and Kasson
bills. This may throw the preponder-
ance in favor of the former. Whichever
bill is taken up, the debate on it promises
to be very protracted. As members Of
the house are more directly
concerned in the matter Of
political patronage, it is probable that
the bill finally passed by it will differ
very radically from the senate bill. The
questions of congressional influence, ten
ure of Office and methods of making ap-
pointments will be discussed from q
somewhat different point of view, SO
that when the bill goes back to the sem
ate it will, no doubt, be 30 materially al
tered and amended as to force it's refer
ence to conference committee. There
the bill will have to be again modified
80 as to harmonize the two houses, or the
committee may not be able at all to reach
an agreement, and thus the bill will fail,
30 to speak, between the two houses,

Ex-senator Spencer reiterates his as
sertion that he has not tried to avoid
giving testimony in the star route case.
He says he was subpoenaed in an irregu-
lar way; that he repeatedly saw Mr.
Bliss in Washington; that he met and
had some conference with member OF
the cabinet, and that though anxious to
be called he never was; that the govern.
ment has never been in ignorance of his
whereabouts, but has had him followed
by detectives, and has never taken any
proper steps to secure his presence. He
is going to London, but leaves his ad.
dress and expresses willingness to for.
ward depositions.

The members of the incoming legisla-
ture should be strengthened little by
their constituents until they become
able to at least mention above q whisper
something about o modification of the
existing exemption laws of Dakota. As
it now stands it is positive injury to
the territory at large in general sense.
It protects the dishonest, breeds rascali-
ty and makes victims of the honest. It
renders necessary such extreme caution
upon the part of capitalists that various
interests suffer from lack of
the full development which
would come if creditors were
were protected. The law exempts from
liability for debt the entire possessions
of OF least eight, tenths of the people of
Dakota. Under these circumstances it is
net strange that capital is timid about
risking itself in Dakota. A single Illus
tration is pertinent. A man who has
done large business in Dakota for o
number of years is about to draw out
and go to neighboring state. His rea-
son is that his losses are SO great in Da-
kota, under its exemption laws, that the
profit is entirely destroyed. His
capital goes out of Dakota to
odd. to the wealth of another com.
monwealth simply because it is not prop.
erly protected. This is but single in.
stance. We are not in favor of the abol.
ishment of ell exemption from seizure
for debt, but we are in favor of law
which will be alike just to the rich man
and the poor man. Previous legislatures
have declined to touch upon this sub.
jeot for fear the populace would be Of
Tended. It is time for the populace to
stiffen up their representatives upon this
point.

A .Crazed Mothers Vain Attempt to Save
the Life of Her Boy.

"A Crazed Mothers Vain Attempt to Save
the Life of Her Boy.
Watertown Courier.
One of the saddest accidents we have
ever been called upon to chronicle, oc-
Cured last Friday noon, about ten miles
west of Watertown. The particulars, as
given us by Mr.. n. s. Lewis, are as fol.
lows: A Mr.. Klopp came out to Dakota
last, fall, from Iowa, and moved into a
cabin on Mrs. Browns farm. Friday
morning his son Axley, about ten years
old, in company with younger brother,
went out to trap some game. Within
about half mile from home Axley fell
into cattle we'll which was dug last
summer and left without any railing for
prote ection. The well was about twelve
feet deep and half full of water. The
younger brother tried to assist Axley.
but without avail; he then ran home and
told his mother about the accident, but
reported that the well was not deep,which
error he was led into by the fact
that there was heavy coating of ice
upon the water; By the time his mother
arrived, however, the boy had sunk SO
deep that it was impossible for her to
reach him with her hands, and she was
obliged to return home for rope, which,
in her haste, she had at first forgotten.
Upon her return she found that the boy
had sunk still lower, and was growing
weaker. He attempted to hold on to the
rope his mother lowered to him, but
could not: his mother then told him to
fasten the rope under his arms. after
which she made tremendous efforts tc
haul him out. Not very strong at most
the poor mother pulled upon the rope
until her arms fairly started from thei,
sockets, but the boys garments
being saturated with water added
so much to his weight that the
mothers strength only ayailei
to raise the boy within couple of feet
froom the top. He begged piteously fol
his mother not to let him drop back again
The agony of the poor mother car
scarcely be imagined when the boy
prayed so earnestly for her to save him
but she could not. Her strength at las,
failed her so that she was obliged to let
him slip back. With his piteous cries
ringing in her ears she dashed to the
nearest neighbor to procure assistance
When she returned the boy had sunh
under the water, and life was SO nearl,
extinct that all efforts to resuscitate hin
proved useless. The parents are quite
poor.

A BATTLE WITHOUT ORDERS.
One of the Incident. of the Atlanta Ca,

gle order from the commanding general.
has attracted some attention, and curl.
osity has been directed to the identified
tion of the occasion alluded to. The facts
seem to be that the battle of which Gen.
Logan speaks is not known in history by
distinctive name, but was one of series
of engagements before Atlanta while
Sherman was moving on the rebel
stronghold, opposed every step of the
way by a stubborn and fighting enemy.
The senator himself, when asked by YOUR
correspondent the name of the battle TO
which he referred, made an explanation
in substance to the same effect, Yonr
correspondent called upon Gen. Sher.
man, who, of course, was the general
meant who had issued no orders Tor the
conduct OF the battle alluded to. in order
to secure, if possible, from him a reminis-
cence of the occasion. Gen. Sherman
said:
have not read Gen. Logan's speech
in the Record, having only seen such ab-
stracts as the newspapers publish. Un,
deubtedly the senator is we'll fortified
with authorities for all his statements.
I would mot render an opinion upon his
speech until ! have seen it, as he will
finally have it printed, carefully revised
be open to criticism.
Do you remember any occurrence
such as he is reported IN the newspapers
as having stated?
No, I do not remember any special
battle of that kind, but there were lots
of days when we had hard fighting, and
such thing no doubt happened, owing
to the circumstances under which we
were operating. Our lines were about
fourteen miles long, and we were con
stantly COMPRISING them. 1t was not
necessary to give special order to fight,
because every officer had instructions to
fight every chance he got. It was fight
all the time. Whenever q corps com
mander saw an opportunity he knew it
was his business to go in. There was a
constant order, so to speak, to strike q
head whenever it was possible. While 1
don't remember any specific occasion
where battle took place without orders,
there was great deal OF that kind oi
fighting. and several occasions when
such thing might be alleged to have
occurred entirely within the limits of the
facts. Nevertheless, / do not call to
mind the particular day to which Logan
refers from what l have seen simply in
the papers, and therefore cannot say
anything about it.

the Turkish dress and the name of Mus
tapha. The chaplain of the frigate
Brandywine, which brought Lafayette
to France in 1925, and who was stationed
in the Mediterranean, in ono of his re-
ports says: I saw Morgan in Smyrna,
Turkey, and talked with him. Ezra s.
Anderson, IN the Hallowell Advocate,
declared that he saw Morgan in 1926;
that he knew him we'll; that he was in
robust health, and that he boasted of

The Fitz John Porter matter is again
up in the United States senate, and Cen
eral Logan is still vigorously opposing
his restoration to honors declared for
feited. A preponderance of the senti-
ment of ex-military men is with Logan
and against Grant, and many not very
rigid in their notions of discipline feel
that drum head court martial and a
sentence of death would have been none
to good for Porter after he had failed to
obey Pope's orders to move to Bristow
station. A newspaper account of an in
teresting debate in the senate last Fri
day, says:
Dspeaking of Porter's failure to obey Popes
in the morning, Logan said: "You may search
military history from Cyrus and Alexandria
down to the present time. and this is the only
sent word to his superior officer to clear the
way for him SO he could move [laughter]; and
there never was commanding officer, except
Gen. Pope, who would not have removed O sub
ordinate officer from his command for sending
gentlemen very high in the army. and under
il be had sent to his commanding officer to
move wagons out of his way, and the distin-
you would have, been put out to a dry nurse.
[Laughter.] But one of the worlds great mill

said, held q different opinion upon the subject
of marching, in spite Of obstacles, when he led
our armies in the field, and in support of this
statement he read from Badeau's Military his.

There is great suffering in the western
part of Ireland and it is apparent that
immediate relief is needed to prevent
deaths from starvation. A New York
telegram says "the most tangible thing
in ireland is the distress and misery of
the people, in the mountain districts par
ticularly, in the places where there are
hundreds of excited families without
shelter and starving. The information
about these is derived chiefly from the
Catholic priests, whose own resources
are exhausted, and about whose dwell
ings the unfortunate creatures are gath
cred, begging piteously for potato or q
pound of corn meal. There are no men,
bers of the human race whose condition
is SO abjectly wretched as that of the
starving people in the west of Ireland"

The CIVIL SERVICE BILL.

of Opinion Regarding the
Measure.
Washington, Dec. 2S-The civil ser.
wee bill passed by the senate is regarded
as very good measure by one class Of
civil service reformers, but it will be an
tagonized in the house by another class,
who believed in fixed tenure Of Office,
and examinations with q view to fitness
for the particular service required. These
provisions are embraced in the Kasson
bill, which is pending in the house as q
special order. When the bill reaches the
speakers table Mr.. Hiscock, Of New
York, or some other friend Of the bill on
