A ROW IN THE COMMONS.
Balfour Stirs Up . Commotion in the
English House Monday
Night.
He Asks Assurance That the Par
uellites VIII Not Repeat
Their Crime.
whereupon = Wild Scene Occurs, Parnell-
ties Demanding to Know "What
Crime ?"-Term Changed.


LONDON, June 17.-There was an exciting
time in the commons last night. Balfour,
replying TO Dillon, denied that the police
had charged upon him and dubbed the peo-
|ple at New Tipperary for lighting bonfres
to celebrate the marriage of VIM. OBrien.
They put out the fires which obstruoted the
streets. Eecroll and Clancy, nationalists,
wanted to know how s'shadoving'' persons
in Ireland could prevent boyootting. Bal
four said no one was Swallowed unless
known to be engaged in intimidation. The
government would reduce the system in the
Parnellites and induce persons Swallowed to
abstain from intimidation. Parnell asked
Balfour to adopt the English presumptioo!n,
that every person accused il innocent until
pf Bsifoeer ps%Si Mr. parnell undertake that
these people shall not repeat their Grim g?
This question brought out loud Parnellite
cries Of what orime?'' Amidst tremendous
uproar Dillon began an excited speech de-
ogy for the use of the word ''crime." A
stormy scene ensued in which Gill accused
Balfour of lying and Gladstone challenged
him to prove the assertion that the liberals
resorted to ''shadowing." Finally Balfour
substituted the words Intimidation and
boycotting'' for 'crime," and after time
the house quieted down.
Shaw-Lefevre's amendment to postpone
the purchasing of licenses until the passage
of an act transferring the licensing power
to county councils was rejected under clio

Resolutions of Respect.

WHEREAS, The Master above has
seen fit to call from labor on May
21st, 1890, our beloved brother, S.
K. Fowler, who was affiliated with
Kirllsville Lodge No. 105, June
18th, 1875, and has ever been q
faithful and loved brother with us.
He was born in Brown Co., Ohio,
Feb. 8, 1909. Moved to Iowa, 1850,
thence to Missouri in 1855. He had
been minister in the M. E, church
South, since 1856, and in every
work in life he has been faithful
to the duty assigned and has done
it well to family, church and Lodge.
His life and death should re-
mind us that his path has been
made plain, and that those who
follow it as he has marked il out,
when their petition for affiliation
with the Lodge above shall be pre-
sented it shall not be rejected.
The family of Brother Fowler,
who deeply mourn his loss, they
have our sympathies and should
be consoled by the thought of his
leaving behind the estimable lega-
cy of a spotless character.
Resotced, That memorial page
be set aside, in the Records of
kirksville Lodge, to the memory
of Brother Fowler, and the Lodge
be draped in mourning for thirty
days, and that the Secretary fur.
nish a copy of these resolutions to
the family of decease ed brother, al.
so to the several city papers for
publication.

THE WILSON BILL.

Tho Wilson Bill, known as the
"Original Package Bill" which has
just passed the house reads us
follows: "That all fermented, dis
titled or other Intoxicating liquors
or liquids transported into any
State or Territory, or remaining
therein for use, consumption, sale
or storage, shall, upon arrival in
such State or Territory, besubject
to the operation and effect of the
laws of such state or territory, en-
acted in the exercises of its police
powers, to the same extent aud in
the same manner as though such
liquids or liquors had been pro-
duced In such state or territory,
and shall not be exempt therefrom
by reason Of being introduced
therein in original packages or
otherwise
The bill was passed by an al
most strict party vote. Only foul
democrats voting for the measure.
What will the Prohibitlonists say
now. The man who says the Re-
publican and Democratic party
are alike on the liquor question is
either willfully false or grossly
Ignorant. The grand old Repub-
lican party has the sad in every
thing.
