Evening journal., 1889-04-17

Of the fight with colors flying, knocking
the proposed bridge into the waters OF
the placid Murderkill Mr.. Hynson bore
his defeat gracefully.
NATIONAL. SECURITY CHARTER.
Horace Greeley Knowles was happy
to-day. He won two victories ne
! killed the child insurance bill ana sue
ceeded in having his bill to incorporate
the National Security Insurance Com,
many nassed. Representative Gray went
Il for tbe bill for all he was worth when
ba board certain rumors about Clerk
gun, taking hand in retarding the
,,assaoe ~ the measure. 1t is one Of
tbosa tbinrs that are not pleasant to
Comment npon, but it has become so
notorious of late that members of both
sides of the House have commented on
the reticence of the press in the matter.
This same influence is responsible for the
opposition to the Eckles quart bill and
the bill to repeal the state militia bill
Members OF the House have at different
times made positive charges of inter
ference. Some Of them resent the indeli
oacy displayed in the matter of an officer
of the House having his name mixed up
with SO many measures.
