FIHE Lawrence tribune can not see
that the Topeka lynching demon
sUrates the necessity for capital punish
ment.'' Then what does it demon
strate the necessity for, cTucifixion,
boiling in oil or tearing asunder with
horses? 1t must be some of these
methods or one of a kindred nature.
| Or does the Tribune think that it was a
popular demonstration in favor of life
| Imprisonment. and meant by its repul-
siveness to create d horror for capital
punishment? Is this the view our es-
teemed contemporary takes of it?
THE Iynching of Oliphant at Topeka
was so well executed, all classes of
citizens honoring the occasion with
their presence and assistance, and the
event itself has met with such general
approval, that it is likely to result in a
boom for Judge Lynch. MaIefactors
would do well to give Kansas the shake
for awhile. Telegraph poles are equal
ly as handy for hanging bee as a
scaffold and ten thousand times more
plentiful.
AN investigation by experts has
demonstrated the fact that the dam
at the JohnstoWn reservoir was little
more than make shift and built in
defiance of the commonest principles
of engineering. 1t was reconstructed
in 1881. and both the new and the old
dams were made of earth only with
ont a heart wall and only rim rapnod
Besides, instead of being higher at the
middle than at the ends, the reverse
was the case, the middle being two
fest lower than the ends. The investi-
cation shows that criminal careless
ness prevailed throughout, and that
the dam was a snide eontraption from
the beginning.

Morgan stated Bayard never COM
mitted the United States government
to the position that there should be
either q separate or joint protecterate
over the islands, not believing a pro-
tectorate entirely consistent with its
autonomy.
Coming down to the conference at
Washington, in July, 1887, Dolph spoke
of the agreement that pending that
conference statG quo should be OBJ
served. and Morgan asked him for his
authority for Rthe statemt Mt >. that the
German government agreed to observe
| St0tu quo.
! Dolph replid that there may have
been no such special agreements but
the observance offs statu quo was neces-
sarily implied.
Dolph added that il Congress was to
interfere with the matter something
very different from the pending amend
ments would be required. II he were
asked what that would be he should
say that
CoEGK1ss WOULD INSIST

the STATES quo ct the time Of the Wash
ington conference. and to notify the
German government of the fact that
the United Ststes would not permit the
Samoan Islands to pass under the con-
troll Of any foreign nation. and that
their independent autonomy must be
maintained. he saw no good reason
why, if necessary and assisted by the
Samoan plea, an American protec-
torate should not be established,
and that, he said, would be an entire
different thing from the Intervention
~ practised By the Europsau powers on
the continent OF Europe.

SENATE.

WAsHIEGToE, January 3o.-Mitchell
offered resolution (agreed toy calling
upon the Secretary of the Treasury for
statement of the amounts in the sink
ing fund to the credit of the Union and
Central Pacific Railways on February
Lat. 1889, under the Thurman act, with
the amount each have invested in
bonds; the market value Of such bonds
and the amount which would have
baen in the sinking fund if no such in
vestment in bonds had been made.
The Senate then resumed considers
ton of the diplomatic and consular ap-
preparation bills. the pending question
being on the amendments affecting the
Samoan Islands.
Dolph said the question was one of
special and local importance to the
people of the Pacific Coast; that what
ever might be thorght as to the pro-
priety of q l.snrs sion of American
rights and inter ssts in Samoan Islands
and Of the relations of the German
government to the United States gov
eminent. the discussion had proceeded
90 far az to render
yURfHER DISCUSSION DESIRABLE.
The views which he would express
would be his own individual views, and
should neither compromise government
nor reesive undue attention elsewhere
After q general description of the
islands, their products, inhabitants and
com mercialimportanc Dolph reviewed
the history OF affairs since the United
States government first took an interest
In the islands and the recent occur
rences, which, he said, had involved the
United States in some degree in q con-
troversy with the German government.
He spoke of the treaty or convention
of November, 1884. between Samoa and
Germany, as one which, if it had been
executed, would substantially
GIVE TO THE GERMAN GOVERNMENT
the entire control of the island. The
extensive provisions that the treaty
powers confirmed on Germany were in
compatible with the independence and
autonomy of the native government
and inconsistent with American treaty
rights there. AS soon as the German
feet sailed away the treaty was repudi-
ated by Malieto, as being signed under
protest.
In the course Of his review, Dolph
came to the point where United States
Consul Gresnbaum raised the Ameri-
can flag over the Samoan flag in the
haHbor of Apis, an act which had been,
he said. promptly rspudiated by Bay
ard and the reputation notified to the
German and English governments with

FOUR MORE STARS.
ALL OBSTACLES NEARLY REMOVED
FROM ADMISSION.
Montana May be Admitted Before Com
gress Meets in December-No
Pretexts For
Delay.

HELENA, Feb. 15.-The Independent
has the following special dispatch, which
is from Mr.. Carles Washington telegram
to the Pioneer Press: The subject now
goes back to the conference committee
with all the serious difficulties in the way
of the agreement removed. 1t is hardly
conceivable that the senate conferees
should be able to find any further pretext
for obstruction or delay. 1t is admitted
by senators not members Of the commit
tee that SouthDakota may come in by pro-
clamation Immediately after or before
June 1st. The other three territories
may elect delegates in May, hold conven-
tions in June or July and elect state off
GERS IN November, 80 as to come in by
proclamation before congress meets.
Altogether there is prospect for some
lively canvassing for state officers in the
northwest this summer.
1t is admitted that the concessions made
by the house are exactly those demanded
by the resolution adopted in the caucus
of the republican senators before the
meeting Of the conference committee. On
the minor points referred back to the
conference committee by Mr.. Cox's reso-
luton, both Mr.. Springer and the repub-
lican senators declare there need be no
serious dispute. These are the election
of delegates and apportlonment, dates of
conventions and resubmission and the
location Of the South Dakota capital. The
length of the concession to which the
norteern democrats have gone, led by Mr.
Cox and secretly encouraged by Mr..
Springer, has surprised most Of the re-
publicans, gratitied the Dakota people
visiting here and irritated the southern
democrats to degree which may be
dangerous. ..
The possibility remains that the 50
southern democrats, who Joined McMil-
Ian in f1llbustering last night, may band
together to prevent final vote on the
conference report in the house. This is
a slender possibility, but it is necessary
to take into account. 1t is too soon to
point out the exact effect of the legislation
provided for today upon the time of the
creation Of new states, but if the South
Dakota vote on the constitution and an
election for state officers is held in May,
the state may be admitted before De-

estimate Of their valde, $s0O,OOO, has

The property comprises tract of land

Of about 800 tons, and the addition Of
