the majority bill, and the principle on which
1t was founded. When 1t was considered
that the country was at peace with all the
world, and was free from any entangling
foreign alliances, the American people could
not sympathize with the effort of the present
congress to create great navy and make
great preparation for national defense in
event of contest arising. The torpedo sys-
tenn, and not the system Of coast fortifca-
tions, would be the agency by which our
harbors would be defended. The expert
ence of the civil war had shown the defences
were improvised as occasion required, and
that money spent in great Notifications had
been wasted, The forts ON the Mississippi
river constructed with the greatest care, had
not been able to stop the progress of even an
ordinary wooden ship. There was no excuse,
there was no Justification in taking from the
people their hard earned money for the pur-
pose Of initiating the policy which in foreign
countries, had produced woe and agony to
mankind.
Mr.. Toilet advocated the minority bill de-
claring the policy of the majority bill was
that America should follow in the footsteps
of Europe. The appropriation in the latter
bill were but the entering wedge, and if
$4,000 600 were appropriated this year
ture years. There was no danger Of an in
vasion of this country. The masses of the
people of the world were in sympathy with
the people of America, and they would be
the last people attacked by foreign nations
lest there be reactions at home more destruc-
tive than any disturbance accomplished by
dynamite. He had no fear of any nation
on earth, even though the United States had
not gun or a ship on the sea.
Mr.. Dorsheimer advocated the majority
report, and said it was within the power Of
several European governments to lombard
every American city on the Atlantic sea
coast. The Mississippi river was deep enough
to float the heaviest battle ship up to Natchez,
and cities along that stream would be as
| much at the mercy of European fleets as
would New York or Philadelphia. He
condemned the policy of false economy, and
asked what was to be done with the vast sur
plus which monstrous taxation brought into
the treasury. Every effort in this house to
reduce taxation had failed. He would go
home to his constituents, and when they
asked him what congress had accomplished,
he would be able to say that 5000 had been
saved by cutting down the salaries of the
secretaries of legation, and $4,000 by cutting
down the salary OF the minister at Rome.
The committee rose and Mr.. Elliot, from
the committee on elections, reported a reso-
luton declaring John S. Wise entitled to re-
tain his seat as representative at large from
Virginia The views of the minority were
presented by Mr.. Turner. Ordered printed.
Mr.. Rosecrans presented a conference
report on the bill to provide for the DISPOSE
ton of abandoned and useless military res
ervations. Agreed to. Adjourned.

BURLINGTON, Wis, Special Tele-

well-known stock dealer, was waylaid
and robbed last evening quarter ot
a mile from Waterford, and will pro-
badly die from his injuries. Mr..
Graves was in Burlington last even
ing, and returning home about
O'Clock in his sleigh was met by three
men, one of whom dealt him a heavy
blow, telling him unconscious to the
ground. His pockets were then robbed
of S142. The unconscious man was
then dragged to the side of the road,
the highwaymen tied his feet to the
top rail of the fence, his head hang
ing on the ground, where he was left
to perish in the cold. An hour later,
people passing discovered the body,
and he was removed to his house. His
recovery is doubtful. The highway
men were not recognized, their faces
being concealed by hats pulled down
and collars turned up. Great excite
prevails.

after all the testimony had been TAX

$40. Carol kicked and went for the
judge in the maA sapproved style. The
judge. finally got mad and told him if
he did not take care he would fine him
500. Carroll then wanted to get out
warrant for the other fellow for
breaking up his house but he would
not issue 1T. There is some talk of
getting the Rev. Capt. Donohue to go
to the police court and hold prayer

the shareholders and by the public in
general, as evidence that the manage
tnent of the Northern Pacific Railroad

executive officer capable of developing
the property and securing for the
stockholders the returns to which they
are entitled. Yours very truly,
