WASHINGTON, Jan. !O.-In the house to-day
Mr.. Milliken, Of Maine, introduced bill to
repeal all internal revenue taxation, and to
admit free Of duty sugar imported from coun-
tries which do not lay an export duty on such
sugar. This provision, in regard to the free
importation OF eugar, is not TO apply to sugars
imported in vessels other than those of the OK
porting country aud the United States, nor to
sugars imported from the countries refusing to
United States' vessels the same treatment in
regard to port and other charges which is
granted to vessels Of such country in American
ports. There shall be paid out Of the treasury
to American producers Of sugar sum equal
to the present rate Of duty on that product, the
sum to be paid each producer to be ascertained

WASHINGTON, Jan. ia memorial of the

North Dakota, prepared under direction Of the
associatian at the Fargo convention Dec. 20,
1887, will be presented to both houses of con-
gress Monday. The memorial is in the nature
Of petition to congress to protect public
school lands from occupation, spoilation and
robbery, by enactment Of adequate laws upon
the subject. Every county in Dakota is inter-
ested in this matter, and Editor Berly, Of
Grand Forks, is preparing bill under instruc-
tions, covering the case. Senator DAVIS, of
Minnesota, has promised to champion the
matter in the senate, because it is meritorious
in his judgement. Delegate Clifford has a.
ready introduced bill upon the subject, but it
does not meet with the entire emergency az
understood by Bierly and the educational as
sociations Of the territory. Clifford will do
whatever he can to secure the rights demanded
by the school people.-St. Paul Globe special
