*Presenl bnt not voting.

*Present but not voting.
Representative Davenport voted
for the first resolution ordering this i'll
yestigatiOn because | had heard that
there were committees having clerks
which had no work. | am opposed to
the present report because it is entirely
too sweeping, and therefore move to
recOmmit it.
Representative Brush-I second the
motion. / will go as far as anyone in
retrenchment aud reform, but i think
the present report OverdOes the matter
and would cripple the house.
Representative BensOn-1a am opposed
to this. l have been speaker of this
house, but I have never known of
speaker having clerk. 1t is due to a
certain senatorial candidate DOnHeliy)
that these clerks and these hundreds OF
dollars in expenses have been forced
upon uS-thr0ugh his pledges to help
elect the speakers candidate for senator
he secured these appointments. But
the speaker said to us that if we thought.
it best to discharge these clerks to take
his with them. L appreciate his posi-
ton and the burden he has had to bear.
Representative Holmstr0m-I move
to make this special order for Mon
day. ar
Representative Flynn amend to re-
commit.
Representative G. r. Davis-NO dis
respect was intended to the speaker by
this committee. l deny the assertion
and | stand here to defend the speaker.
Representative Dunn We have
wasted enough time on this to-day. If
we want to be economical let us finish
our legitimate business, adjourn and go
home for good. I~m0ve the previous
question.
The motion for the previous question
was lost by vote of a to 42. The mo
ton to rec0mmit was also lost.
Representa- tive Faricy-Let us di s.
pose of this report now.
Representative lyeS-I see no reason
for such petty parsimony as this, or
mean cringing TO false economy.
On the motion of Representative III.
F. Stevens to make the whole matter a
special order for Monday there was
vote of 43 to 43. The speaker cast the
deciding vote, carrying the motion, but
afterwards ruled himself out of order
for so doing, so that the motion was
lost. Mr.. Benson got up and left the
house and the discussion was dropped
until o'clock. when the report and the
amendments attached to it by Repre-
sentatives Fleming and Stevens were
left unacted upon and pending such
action as the house may take Monday.

War between the United States and Eng
land exists at the close of this century. A
Syndicate contract with this Government
to establish peace within a year. They
equip number of ships with steel armor,
and construct several submarine vessels
called "crabs." Bombs of wonderful de-
structive power are fired from the steel
ships, which blow to atoms two Canadian
forts and a monster iron-clad man-Of-war.
The crabs, by means of powerful mechan-
ical jaws, disable a number of English
war-ships by tearing off their rudders and
propellers. One of the largest stellar
mored repellers," accompanied by feet
of crabs, proceeds to the British Isles,
where several more men-of-war are dis
abled and a dynamite gunboat captured.
The entire British fleet then prepare to as
sault the repeller, but bombs exploded in
the sea cause such disturbance in the
The British fleet then retire from the con-
fict. A letter is sent to the English Gov
ernment by the Syndicate with the request
The gold leaf. [volume] (Henderson, N.C.) 1881-1911, 1889-04-18

that they name some fortified place which
the Syndicate will destroy in order to
demonstrate the power of their bombs.
After deliberating several days, the Gov
ernment select Caerdaff, on the Welsh
coast, as the place to be destroyed. On the
appointed day the repeller begins the bonn
and such is the destructive power of the
bombs that the high promontory of Caer-
daft is completely effaced and the coast
line SO changed that a new bay is created.
This, of course, convinces the English that
it is useless to longer fight against the Syn
dicate, and a treaty of peace is soon nego-
tiated. Then the American and English
Governments secure control of the inven-
tions of the Great War Syndicate, and an
alliance for the domination of the world is
speedily formed between the two nations,
to the vast and almost immediate improve
ment of all mankinds During the whole
of the war but one man is killed, and his
death is caused by the fall of derrick. A
monument is raised to his memory.
