BAKERSvn.LE, Mitchell county. Sept
%, lS9O.-A strong wind blew through,
out the whole OF last night, probably the
cquinoctial gale. with an occasional
shower, and when the duSky porter al
the Ray House notified the congressional
campaigning party Al $50 O'Clock that
breakfast was ready, the face of nature
was anything but encouraging. And
Mitchell. the banner republican county
III the district, was our destination. Our
party vas soon under way. however,
and as we progressed the rainfall i'll
creased, and aS those mountain streams
are very trcachcrouS. the question soon
arose as to whether we would bc able tu
reach our destinations. Providence is
certainly with Crawford in this hight

aud north fork OF the Toe river were
safely passed and at 1890 we reached

count, initiating values to the extent Of its
depreciation beyond its gold value. To avoid
this disturb ance and at the same time to ap-
pease partly the demand for the coinage Of

the mint to purchase not less than 1000, 900
nor more than 000, 900 of ounces Of silver bull
lion each month at best prices obtainshle and
to coin it into silver dollars Of same weight
and fineness as before established. the govern
ment to retain the difference between the
face value of the coins fabricated and the
actual cost of the bullion. This process has
gone on ever since, until more than $50, 600, 900
of pieces have been coined, OF which about
60, 600, 900 are in circulation, the remainder
being in the Treasury, but nearly all repre-
sented by certificates whose issue is enforced
by law These coins and certificates are re-
ceived and paid out by the government the
same as other moneys of like face value, al
though the bullion value of dollar piece has
not for some time been above rs cents in gold,
the legal standard. As the coinage of these
pieces and the issue of certificates for them is
compulsory, silver must in. time become the

The House Discusses the New Code
OF Rules

The House Journal of Fridays proceed
on the point of counting a quorum, was
approved Without demur
Cannon of Illinois, from the committee
on rules, reported back the new code of
rules. and the House proceeded to consider
it. Cannon favored the new code as re-
ported
Mills of Texas said the proposed code
would reverse legislative action. The rules
were intended not only to facilitate bust
ness but to protec, the minority, and had
always done so since the foundation of the
the government. Rules were intended to
make this body halt, pause, deliberate, and
in some instances go back and touch the
sober second thought of the people. Il was
upon this sober. second thought OF the peo-
pie that the government rested. The re-
pubhcsns said they had decided to consider
an election case. he minority had asked
for th- rules; but for rules which, while
provi1ing for the procedure of business,
would preserve and protect the rights of
the minority.
Bsyne OF Pennsy lvana justified the COM
mittee on rules in bringing n the proposed
code, arguing it would facilitate the iran
.action of busines. and would prevent a
small minority from nullifying the will of
q msjority of repr- sentatives of the people.
BIount of Georgia argued in opposition
to the proposed rules. dwelling in e.pecia
sntsgonism upon the clause making 100
members in the commi tee s whole. Pend
ing further discussion the House at 5 35
adjourned.

tail every step taken in the negotiations,
and the deed which accom- Jsnies the report

years of age, this being in excess of the
required number. The commission makes
a number of recomme ndations. The mat
ter of first importance, it says, 10 a selec-
ton f agents who are to manage and sup
erintend the affairs at separate agencies.
One Of the most prolific causes of trouble
a, the agencies. Say. the commission. has
been agents placed at = disadvantage by
having employees appointed to serve osten-
sibiy under their orders, who by virtue Of
their influence at Washington are practi-
cally independent of their control The
commission deprecates the recent action of
the department in cutting down the guam
tity of beef rations from the various
agencies. The eport states that the In-
iians are everywhere taking an increasing
interest in the matter of education. The
report recommends that schools be estab-
lished on the reservations. Attention is
called to the inferior quality Of the clothing
issued. and q change is recommended in
the time of issuing anpuities.
necOtnfneuus the lunu uerlVeu lrou the

commission recommends Regulation appro-
