The President Refuses to Give the Charges
Serious Attention
Special the Indianapolis Journal
wAsHrSeToN. May 1.-The charges fled by
Dakota Democrats against the active and out
rageous participation in politics by Governor
Church. OF that Territory, and the appeal made
TO the President for the removal OF that oficsr
by reputable Dakota Democrats have been the.
subject Of much discussion around the halls Of
Congress during the past two or three days.
Church is specifically charged with having set
mp conventions in Dakota with a view to the
election Of Cleveland delegates and the election
Of himself a. . member Of the national commit
tee; a. commander-in-chi Of the militia OF the
Territory, with the selection of men on his staff
who are not proper characters for the positions
they hold; removing capable officers for i'm
proper personal reasons; with having bartered
his appointments away to Republicans for his
own advantage, insulting and ignoring
the members Of his party; with
unfair attempts to throttle the honest voters
In the Territory; with compelling his staff, MEM
bers Of the railroad commission, the various
boards of public institutions. the regents OF
universities, reform schools. the Democratic
judges and their imported clerks TO do his dis
with non-residsnts and Republicans; capturing
personal endorsements from conventions con-
trolled BY fraudulent proxies. and all manner of
things which q federal officer In an alleged
civilssrvics administration. should not be guilty
Of. These charges do not come from anony-
nous sources nor from irresponsible persons.
They are sent by the cream OF the Democrats
organizations in Dakota, and the demand for
Church's removal is earnest. The Pres-
dent, however, has refused to give
than serious consideration. because. it IL
said. be knew of Church's political participation
and indorsed il. The President also knows of
officials in the Pension, Postoffice and Treasury
departments going to their homes to participate
IN conventions. and set M the pins for him aud
bis friends. Yet he takes action tn repri-
msnd or remove them. as he has pledged In
special orders, and is guaranteed by the civil
service laws. IL Is said that Senator Hale's
committee. investigating civil-service reform
outraees and violations of the law in general,
will take hold Of some OF these matters with .
view to showing MP Clevelands hypocrisy in
civil-service matters

In a recent issue of your paper INQUIRIES were

alta is a tropical plant that will not thrive in
this climate. 1t requires a tropical or semi
tropical climate. l have had experience with
it in southern California and Florida. In Cali
forna it may be cut every six weeks, and it
will often yield from two to three tons OF hay
per acre at each cut ting. It will pasture al
most as many cattle and sheep a. can turn
around on it, as 1t grows very rapidly. have
known 1t to grow six inches in forty-eight
hours. 1t does not do a. we'll in FLORIDA, as the
soil is not nearly 30 fertile as that OF Cali

grew to the height Of about six inches and then
withered and died did not exoect it to stand
our winters, but l knew it would nav to sow.ls
each spring If 1T would do half a. we'll as il does
in California, but a. / have stated before. 1t

do without it. I will add that it grew the SIX
inches mentioned in three weeks from the seed.

enough seed for an acre. got . good stand.
but otherwise it was an entire disappointment,
a. after several years. only now and then .

tirsly unless the season was very dry and the
pasture very short The soil was good sandy

cold winters were the cause Of its failure but
other peculiarities of soil and climate, for have

WAsHISGroS. May 1l-Mr. Mills. Of Texas,
from the COMMITTEES on rules, reported resolution
providing that the hour for the daily meeting Of
the House shall hereafter be L. A. NJ, and after
general debate on the tariff bill shall have closed,
the House shall adjourn each day at 5 z. NJ
Adopted.
On motion Of Mr.. Mckinley, Of Ohio. the
!, Senate bill was passed for the erection of .
public building at Youngstown. O., with an
amendment reducing the appropriation from
100000 to $4,000
The House then went into committee Of the
whols-Mr. Springer. of Illinois. In the chair
on the tariff bill; and was addressed by Mr.
Scott, Of Pennsylvania. Mr. Scott spoke for
more than two hours. and was loudly applauded
a. be concluded. During the delivery Of the
speech, Speaker Carlisle, Postm aster neral
Dickinson and Assistant Postmaster-general
Stevenson were attentive listeners, while Presi-
dent Cleveland was in the gallery for . short
time.
MIR. Gear, of Iowa, in discussing the Mills bill.
which he said would destroy American labor.
trict had told him that no Iowa Representative
who voted for the measure could be reelected

and protection the Republican party had on its
side the interests of manufactures aud laborers,
while on the other side Was Q large portion of
husnce. The passage Of the Mile bill, in the
interest Of free trade, would be Q victory for
British commerce.
Mr.. Dibble, of South Carolina. criticised the
Republicans for their proposition that the only
tariff duties which should be reduced were those
on articles which could be produced in the
South, and for desiring that everything should
be protected, except the rice Of the Carolinas
and the sugar Of Louisiana He thought that
this was . strange commentary upon the pro-
fessed friendship of the Republican party for
the negro laborer OF the South.
Mr.. Haugen, of Wisconsin. opposed the bill
and criticised the President for having been in
part, responsible ;or the Surplus, which he so
much condemned, by his failure 20 approve the
river and harbor bill; by his veto of the depend
entpension bill, and by bis neglect to exercise
the authority, vested in him by law, to pur-
chase United States bonds.
