The Governor of Louisiana made some
very truthful and forcible remarks concern
ing the Louisiana Lottery Company in his
message to the legislature. He put the case
none too strongly when he said that If the
company once more fastened its grip on the
State It would be impossible to shake it eff.
With its tremendous resources it could easily
spare millions for bribery, and among the
ignorant population of Louisiana it would
find plenty of subjects to work on. 1t is to
be feared, however, that the Company's grip
is already so firm that it cannot be shaken

WASHINGTON CRY, July 9.-In the House
Hit of Illinois from the committee on

House the correspondence between the
governments OF the United States and
Great Britain touching the subject in dis
pute in reference to Behring sea. Alter

Hit presented the conference report on

ence having been made to the appropria-
ton made by the last bill for the protection
of United States rights in Samoa. McMil-
lin of Tennessee declared that it now ap-
reared the entire result of the Samoan nego-
tiations had been TO enthrone a king who
had been dethroned by his people. Our
representatives sent abroad for the pur-
pose of settling Samoan matters had actu-
ally gone to the extent of overriding the
will OF the people of Samoa and setting up
as king q scapegrace who had been de-
throned: and, moreover. this American
administration had undertaken to pay y art
OF the expenses of his kingdom. Itwas a
disgrace 10 the American people and TO

THE sUNDRY CIVIL BILL.
Provisions of the Measure as Reported
to the senate.

Provisions of the Measure as Reported
to the senate.
WASHINGTON CRY. July 9.-The sundry
civil bill as reported to the Senate today by
the appropriation committee carries ap-
preparations amounting to $31 .2i1 $50, an
increase OF 1881 eco over the original bill
reported, Sc, ,955, PIT less than the estimate,
and S., 5,944 1888 more than the bill of last
year. The most important feature of the
work of the Senate committee on this bill
is the elimination of the appropriation of
$777, 500 for irrigation surveys. This pro-
vision was vigorously attacked by num-
Der OF Western senator's, and they sue
ceeded in defeating it in the committee.
Their opposition is based largely upon the
ground that its effect would be to reserve
from the public domain an amount of pub
lie land which should be open to settle
ment. The appropriation for the topo-
graphic survey and the geological survey,
however, was increased from 100000 to
$500. 600. 1t is provided that half of this
sum shall be expended west of the 10lst
meridian, and so much of the act of Octo-
Der 2, 1888. as provides for the selection and
location of reservoirs and canals upon pub
lie lands and reservation of irrigable lands
is repealed; provided reservoir and canal
sites heretofore located or selected shall re-
main segregated and reserved from entry
or settlement until otherwise provided by
law.
An appropriation of $500, is made for
the establishment of q Latin-American
Memorial building in the city of Washing
ton, as recommended by the Pan-Ameri-
can conference.

THE NATIONAL ELECTION Law.


Congressional Committee Issues an Ad-
dress to Republican Editors.
WARRINGTON CRY, July 9.-Representa-
tive Belden, chairman of the Republican
congressional committee, has issued an ad-
dress to the Republican editors of the
country on the subject of the national
election law. He saps:
The republican party pledged the country in
its platform that it would see to the execution
of that provision of the constitution which
guarantees every lawful voter in Federal cleo
ton the right to deposit his ballot and have il
cou ted for the candidate of his choice.
No question of negro supremacy, no usurpation
of Federal power is involved. The bill whic
recently passed the House deals only with ma
stional elections The states are properly left to
work out their own destinies through their
own agencies. Why, then, should the bill not
become a law? The House, faithful and active
in the fulfllment of party pledges,
jealous in the performance of
public trusts and undauntsd by
the diabolical threats and assaults of the DEM
ocratic party, promptly performed its duty by
the passage of the Dill now, it only remains for
the Republican majority in the senate to emu
late the house and permit the president, by his
signature, to raitfy end register the will of the
naticn. Will the senate promptly perform this
imperative obligationb
The committee is in possession of information
showing that there was concentrated effort on
the part OF the Democratic party to change the
trend of public opinion, thereby poisoning the
mind of the people. to the end that statement
might be manufactured that would deter con-
gress from passing the national election law at
this session. 1t is believed that . favorable ex-
preston of opinion at this juncture from the
Republican press all along the line would be as
forcible as timely, and would exert wholesome
Influence and inspire the legislature to the
carrying out of the psrsy's pledges. VIII you
not do your duty in urging that the Sennte shall
respond promptly by the passage of q measure
which the House deems absolutely essential to
the purity of elections?

correctness of the count. instancing the
names of Enloe, Herbert. Grain and Fifth
ian, and stating that they had not been
present. Subsequently he withdrew the
challenge to the names of Grain and Fifth
ian, but persisted as far as Enloe and Her
bert were concerned. The speaker, while
admitting the necessity for absolute cor
rec,ness in the record of the members pres
ent and voting, stated that even eliminat-
ing the names of Enloe and Herbert there
was quorum present. He therefore de-
ciared the motion to table carried and put
the question on agreeing to the conference
report. The vote resulted yeas Ill, nays
33. and the speaker was unable to count a
quorum, so the conference report was not
agreed to for the present. Adjourned.

Anotber Veto By the President.

WASHINGTON CITY, June 9.-The presi-
dent returned to the House without APP
proval the bill extending payment to pur-
chasers of land of the Omaha tribe of In
dians in Nebraska The president in the
veto says:
There is no objection that / know OF, either
on the part OF the United States or the Indians,
TO exten ion of the unpaid fnstallnent due
rom purchasers This relief is probably due TO
purchasers. The president, however, objects to
the provision that all lands. payment
for which is extended, shall be
subject TO taxation by the state of Nebraska ~
if fully paid for and patents issued. The presi-
dent is OF the opinion tnat the ttle9f the United
States aad the interest OF the Indians in the
lsuas should not be subjected to sale for the de-
linqueney OF purchasers in paying tax sssess-
ments.

THE SHIPPING SUBSIDIES.
Nine Thousand Miles Too Short Limita
ton for This Coast.

WASHINGTON CRY, July 9.-Several
Washington state shippers have been writ
ing 70 Senator Squire about the shipping
subsidy bill now pending in the Senate,
saving that the limitation of the distance
to 5000 miles will be an injustice to them,
as they frequently carry goods 10 900 miles.
The House bill did contain such a pro-
vision, but the Senate bill does not limit
the distance, but pays bounty on goods
carried any distance, whether it be 500 or
1900 miles.

goods around Cape Horn to foreign ports.
