The Northwest.

Washington, 8.-Yesterday Sena'
tor Dolph called up, in order 20
make some remarks upon 1t, the oil!
to provide for the improvement OF
the Columbia river. In a speech OF
some length he entered into the par
ticulars, showing q great increase
in the commerce and population OF
Oregon, Washington Territory and
Idaho, and the Importance Of pre-
pairing for a or. at future in that re-
gion of country, by judicious appro-
priations for the Improvement OF lts
navigable waters. 1t was al
most impossible, Dolph said,
to foretelI the full resultS
to the commerce of the Uni
ted States which would ultimately
result from the completion Of the
Northern Pacific railroad. China
and all countries Of Asia opened up
an almost limitless field TO the COM
merce of the United States, and
would in time furnish market for
the wheat surplus of the Pacific
Coast. The Northern Pacific road
would be compelled to put on q
steamship line 10 China, with
standing the Isthmus canal. The
commercial outlet on the Pacific,
Dolph maintained, was westward.
He combatted the view expressed
by Ingalls, ON a recent occasion to
the effect that Alaska was q barren
investment. The purchase of
Alaska, he said. had not given rise
to go much criticism as had the pur-
chase of Louisiana, which had been
called q malarial and illimitable
swamp. In conclusion, Senator
Dolph said the great Pacific north
west, the original Oregon, appeals
to the national Congress for that
recognition to which the sacrifices
and fidelity to this government of
the pioneers who settled, held and
saved to the United States that
magnificent domain during her long
isolation, her vast territory, great
resources and necessities, her great
and already increasing commerce
and her undoubted and immediate
future developments, deserve, out Of
an overlooking treasury. She asks
The aid necessary to prosecute the
Improvements of her rivers and
harbors now in progress, and to
commence the important work Of
the mouth of the great
river which forms the natural out
let to the sea for her surplus pro.
auctions.

FORTY-ElGHTH CONGRESS
HOUSE,.

Washington, S.-The House. by q
vote of yeas 115, nays 127, refused
to 90 into committee for the con-
sideratiOn OF the bonded whisky ex.
tension bill.
Under the call of committees,
Dingley reported adversely from
the committee on shipping, authe r
izing the purchase of foreign built
ships by United States citiz ne for
use in the foreign carrying trade.

Morrison moved that the
House go into committee
Of the whole on the revenue bills,
pending which Townshend Oils }
moved that the House 60 into com
mittee OF the whole on the general
appropriation bills. The Speaker
stated that vote would first be
taken on Morrison's motion, and
Randall demanded the yeas and
nays. The obj. ct Of MorriSon's
motion was to take up for consider
ton the bonded extension bill. The
House, however, refused to adopt
it, 7eas rs, nays 127. This was In
no sense party vote, as a large
number Of Democrats voted with
the Republicans, aud almost an
equally large number OF Repub>
licans with the body Of Democrats
in the affirmative.
The House then went into conn.,
mittee of the whole on the pOstOffice
appropriation bill.
Horn said there would undOuoted
ly be deficiency of two millions
and a half if the bill passed in
its present shape, and the only
offset the committee provided was
cutting down !, 800 salaries in nine
cities. He was opposed to this pro-
vision, contending that pOstmasters
in large cities fully earned the sal
aries they were now receiving..He
invited special attention to the pro-
vision for the reduction of compen,
satio to railroads; though he thought
it was unwise, he made no special
objection to 1t, his objection being
directed to the clause authorizing
the payment of only fifty per cent.
