THE House of Representatives on
the l4th inst. passed the Morrison
joint resolution requiring the disburse-
ment of the treasury surplus in excess
of $lOO, 100000 in the redemption of
interest bearing bonds. The vote was
over three TO one, the ayes being 209
and noes 65.
The following is the text of the res
olution:
"That whenever the surplus or bal
ance in the treasury including the
amount held for redemption of United
States notes shall exceed the sum of
one hundred millions of dollars, it
shall be, and is hereby made, the duty
of the Secretary of the Treasury to
apply such excess, in sums not less
than ten millions per month during
the existence of such surplus or ex-
cess, to the payment of the indebted =
ness of the United States, payable at
the option of the Government
1t is not likely that the resolution
will be considered by the Senate this
session.

JUDGE LOVE, at Keokuk, Iowa, on
the 9th inst, in saloon cases decided
that the cases came within the princi-
piles laid down in the Walruff Brewer
case recently decided by Judge Brew
er in Kansas, and that confscation of
property used in a lawful business pri-
or to the enactment of the prohibltory
law, which went into effect in July,
1884, can not he made without COM
pensation. This would be applied to
buildings erected especially for saloon
purposes; to those leased for the bu-
siness of selling beer and wine as for
merry licensed by the State, and fix
lures and furnishings used therefor.

FRANCE, having crowded our pork
products out of her markets in order
to protect her hog industry, has con-
cluded to take another step or two
forward in the same direction, as if in
imitation of the a merican policy. Ac-
cordingiy, the Chamber of Deputies
lately decided by an overwhelming
vote to place a tax on foreign grain.
AS we have latterly been considerable
shippers of cereals to that country,
the announcement comes to us as to
parties IN interest. The trade from
New York alone during the past ten
months ending April 80, has amount
ed to $685. ,925 bushels corn, and :
24S, Iii bushels wheat, of an aggregate
value of S4, $50, 1919, or say about S.
0O0, 900 for the twelvemonth. What is
the next American product to be thus
placed under the French protectionist
ban? When a policy of this kind is
once entered upon it is usually pro-
gressive. We don't know, however,
that we have any right to object.

Judge A. Il. Thurman being asked
his opinion concerning the Supreme

Senate said
'' have not word to say about the
Supreme Courts decision in regard to

It may be wrong. Possibly it has no

perhaps it has. l wouldn't care to

without consulting the books and the

every one of them knew that he was
violating not only the spirit but the
plain letter of the Constitution. it is
revolution, for which there is neither
defense nor excuse. Granted that the
ousted memhers had defective titles,
when these titles were legally inquired
into, that does not justify the viola
zion of the constitution. If this is to
become the rule, all constitutional
guarantees become a nullity, so that
it will come to pass that when one
party does a wrong for some political
advantage. the other party will see
that wrong and go one better at the
first opportunity. You younger men
should see to it that every constitu-
tiOnal guarantee is preserved inviolate
and not one ofthem is trampled under
foot, even upon the pretense that it is
necessary to do so to meet an exigency
or right wrong. 1t is fallacy 10 say

The great deliverance from disease
and death that may be secured, pro

lend helping hand and make public
opinion popularize the law and sustain

Allow me to call your attention to
some of the laws now in force upon

Commissioners promise their best en-

Has Jim Cumnlings Been Captured9
THE ALLEGED ADAMS EXPRESS ROBBERS CAUGHT IN
CHICAGO,
It now seems certain that the three men arrested
In Chicago on Friday were really concerned In the
express robbery on the st. Louis and San Fran
cisco railroad in October. The amount of money
captured with the robbers is said to have been
only S, 600. The man known as Jim Cummings,
one OF the three prisoners, is not the notorious
desperate OF that name, but another, whose career
has been more obscure. The clews by which the
the letters which this man Cummings wrote, en-
deavoring to divert suspicion from the messenger
Fotheringham. Some inaccuracies in the latter's
statement also furnished clewS OF value to detec-
ttves. Cummings real name is Williams. The
story of how these clewS were followed up is q
long and intricate one. The :men were finally run
down through the shadow1ng OF women with
whom they lived.

REPRESENTATIVE SPRINGER WILL. TRY TO HAVE
FOUR ADMITTED.
Representative Springer says he intends to do all
he to pass, this session, his bill to enable Da-
kOta, Montana, New Mexico and Washington Ter
rtories to enter the union of states and he thinks
he may succeed.
1t will probably not be possible to get the COM
mittee TO report upon the bill, but he will try to
get 1t in as a substitute when some other
territory bill is up for consideration. The
bill will not admit the territories at once but will
enable them to elect delegates next fall to draft
constitutions TO be submitted to the people at the
time Of the presidential election, and wifi let them
all into the Union the year following. He thinks
the idea OF admitting all at once viii prevent Op-
position on party grounds, as they will be
equally divided as TO politics. and the fact Of their
not having any voice In the presidential election
Is certainly time that some move should be made
towards The admission OF these territories.
