whore the work is of great hlic Importance
appropriations will DO as near the estimates
as tho committee can make Thorn. Some
improvements of entirely local nattiro will
not bo considered. Tho committee decided
TO hold sessions on four days of every week,
in order that the bill may be prepared as
speedily as possibly. 1t is thought that it
will be ready TO bo reported to the house by
tho last of April or first OF May, and that it
will provide for making tho appropriations
itntnpdi atnIv available.

Mr.. RANDALL is no moro inclined to hold
back the appropriation bills in the interest of
protection than Mr.. Morrison is to push for
ward any tariff bill to its detriment. The
combat over the tariff in the house will be
with gloves, and there will be no broken
bones. What the democrats want next is the
Offices. That would fill the measure of their
desire 'for revenue only"

The Virginia bourbons are not leaving
ANYTHING undone to entrench themselves in
power Their senate has passed an election
law providing for securing all the election
officers and machinery in their own hands.
This will obviate the necessity of any more

can do the counting they are as quiet and
peaceful as q baby in possession Of an open

WHATEVER stands in the way of the right
of the American government to enforce man
hood suffrage, fair elections and the safety of
the voter and citizen must be removed. If
this impediment is the doctrine of state rights
that dogma is entitled to no more consider
alton than any other system of villainy.

The River, ana Harbor Appropriation.

The limit of the appropriation for rivers
and harbors for the next fiscal year was in
formally discussed yesterday by tho house
committee having in charge those subjects.
While no declsi was reached, the majority
of the committee oemod to favor an appro-
priation OF not more than $l0,0OO,000, and ex-
pressed themselves as DESTROYS, il possible, to
conilne it within $9,00O,0OO.. The estimates
of the engineer officials having in charge tho
improvements of rivers and harbors amount
to about $35,0O00O0. Members Of the COM
mittee thought that IL would be impossible
TO secure the passage Of so large an appropria-
ton bill, and cited tho failure of tho bill at
tho last session of congress, which appro-
priRted only about S5O0O,0O0. Tho plan
which the committee proposes TO follow is TO
recommend ON an average about One-tourth OF
the estimate made by tho engineers where
| improvements are in progress, In some cases

THE house refused yesterday to allow q
subcommittee to spend 81 500 on trip of
investigation to the Arkansas Hot Springs,

The house was stampeded by the remark that
it would be a junketing expedition. The

be president than be right just now. Careful

And deep ohagrln his pain enhances.
