Madisonian, Jan 2eth.

Madisonian, Jan 26th.
+ On Thursday evening about
O'clock it was rumored upon the
streets that official notification had
been received ofthe removal Of Judge
Conger's suspension. A Mddis0niun
reporter at once started to ascertain
the truth of the rum0r, and on find
ing the judge was shown the letter
from Attorney General Brewster, no
tifying him that he had been restored
to bis official duties with all its emol-
uments, and concluding with the
gratifying statement that the exami-
nation of the charges against him
had ELECTED mo evidence showing
any want of integrity on his part.
personal or cficial." As soon as the
good news was confirmed, there
was q general movement of
our citizens to congratulate the
worthy judge upon his vindication
from the outrageous assaults upon
his good fame, and in less than one
hour from the time the announce
ment was made, a large crowd of citi-
zens, headedby the Virginia City
Band, appeared before the judges
residence, and testified with music
and lustv cheers their qualification at
the itcome of the investigation.
"Three cheers and a tiger" were uc-
cessively given to Judge Conger
and the President until the hills
fairly echoed back the shouts of the
delighted citizens. If any doubt has
ever existed in the mind Of the Judge
concerning the feelings of our people
toward him as q citizen, or of the
condemnation Of the unmanly per-
secatlon of which he has been the
victim, it must certainly have been !
dispelled be the enthusiastic ovation |
which he received. The cheers that |
went up when he appeared upon the
porch were a hearty, spontaneous
of the rejoicing that
could not be mistaken. The Judge
responded by inviting his WIS.,
ltOrs into the house, where. after
cordial Misunderstanding, he addressed
them In meat little speech, thanking
them for this manifestation of their
aud good will, and briefly
abiding to the circumstances which
had ELECTED It.. He was deeply and
affected during its delivery,
times being almost moved to tears.
At its conclusion, three more cheers
given for the speaker, three
more for the President, the band
some national airs, and after
round of congratul ,tions,

which the suddenness of the invasion
permitted the ladies of the house.

signed to prevent this buying up OF
opposition lines. and to let the people
have some Of the benefits of COMPETE
tion.. Therefore all such contracts
which create monopoly and initiate
against the public interest, are t, be
declared uttra vires, beyond the pow
er OF the corporation to enter into or
execute. The section was at length
adopted with the addition of a
strengthening clause.
Section 7 provides against discrimi-
nation in railroad charges for freight
or passage. MI. Dixon introduced as
a substitute a sort of iron clad provi-
sion, which also declared against ex-
cessive local rates.
Mr.. Stephens wanted to insert a
clause against the issuing of free
passes.
A motion to lay on the table was
declared out of order.
Mr.. Hedges reminded the gentle:
man that it was within the power of
Congress to forbid public officers
taking OF using railroad passes, bu}
1t could not prevent a railroad COM
pany issuing them.
MI. Hunt said this matter was pro-
vided for in G.. F. No. Ii, but M.
Stephens preferred to have it dealt
with now.
Mr.. Howell inquired what the gen.
tleman would do with passes issued
from St. Paul or Omaha?

ulate their own affairs. The gentle.

IT WILL be seen, by reference to another
column, that the bill to establish Veter-
ans Home beyond the Mississippi, which
was so strongly urged upon the considera-
ton of Congress by the special committee
appointed at the last National Encampment
of the Grand Army, in the eloquent memo
rial which we printed some weeks ago, has
at last passed the Senate, and will, doubt
less, soon be called up for action in the
House. The amendments to the bill, pro-
posed by Senator Miller, of California, and
Senator Conger, of Michigan, and subse-
quently adopted, do not interfere at all with
the original purpose of the measure, but, on
the contrary, look to the still further ex-
tension of the system of military homes
which the necessities OF our ex-soldiers and
sailors make it obligatory upon the Gov
eminent to maintain. AS has been already
explained in these columns, the completion
and opening of the Veterans Home, which
our California comrades, aided slightly by
the State Legislature, undertook to estab-
lish, has been delayed on account of the
lack of funds, and although they are max
ing most praiseworthy effort to raise the
money that is still needed, and, as we learn
from Depart 3ent Commander Davis, the
home has at last been formally opened, it Is
evident that the burden of properly equip
ping and maintaining it is greater than pri-
yate charity can bear. The inquiry pro-
posed by Senator Miller is, therefore, timely,
and we trust the report to be made, as a
result thereof, will be such as to convince
Congress that our veterans of the Pacific
Coast ought to share in the benefits afforded
by the system of homes established IN the
East. They have done what they could to
care for their disabled and impoverished
comrades, and it is time that the Govern
ment lent them a helping hand. SO, too, in
the case of Michigan, there is real neces-
sity for the establishment of home for the
accommodation OF her sick and helpless
braves, and good reasons why, if the Gov
eminent has the lands and buildings lying
idle, they should be put to such noble use

in question, we are in favor of discrimina-
ing every time in favor of the former. No
more than our correspondent are we afraid
of the ghost of the Confederacy," but we
hold that such honors and such places of
trust as it is within the power of Govern
ment and people to bestow should be con-
ferred upon the men who risked their lives
to preserve that liberty of which Comrade
Wright is SO justly proud, rather than upon
those, however much they may now regret
it, who sought to overthrow the Union. To
the latter we owe nothing; to the former
everything.

One Of the brightest, handsomest and most
interesting journals on our exchange list is the
san Francisco aud Oakland Illustrated Mirror,
which, is devoted to the interests of the Grand
Army and various benevolent end secret orders.
In a recent issue it published a number of
splendid photographic portraits of leading COM
rades of the Grand Army III the Department OF
California. as also 8 Congressional portrait gal
lery, the Hkenasses in nearly every ease being
reinarkisbly accurate. Tao Mirror well deserves
the great success which 1t has achieved on the
