What the Senate and House viii Work
Upon This Week.
WASHINGTON, February 9th.-The new
code of rules will be the chief subject of
interest to come before the House this
week. 1t is the intention of the Committee
on Rules to cali it up as soon as possible
and to ask the House to so limit it as that
final action on the subject may be reached
within two or three days.
While many of the features of the new
rules are obnoxious to the Democrats, it is
not probable that opposition will be mani
tested otherwise than by speeches, and by
adverse votes on them, provided the min
ority be afforded what they regard as rea-
soDable time for discussion.
The Committee on Elections may report
the contested election case of Atkinson ver-
sus Pendleton, and action upon that case
will consume the remainder of the week.
There are indications that Blair's educa-
tional bill in the Senate will run through a
week, and perhaps longer period, before
vote is taken.
The bill to organize a territorial govern
ment for Oklahoma will probably be dis
posed of in the morning hours, and any
odd hours of time therein remaining will
be devoted to miscellaneous "unobjected"
business on the calendar.
The executive session of the Senate will,
it is expected, consider the nominations of
Morgan to be Commissioner of Indian At
fairs; Dorchester, to be Superintendent of
Indian Schools, and Yarmouth, to be Col
lector of Customs at New Orleans-all of
which are subjects of controversy.

DAKOTA AND THE LOTTERY.

North Dakota proposes by Act of the
Legislature, TO adopt that which Louis
lana, after twenty years of trial, spews
out OF its mouth, For public senti-
ment is so strong against the lottery in
Louisiana, that it is accepted as beyond
question that the charter of the concern
will be refused renewal. North Dakota, by
this Act, would stain her virgin escutcheon
and begin her career as a State under
malign influences. 1t does not speak well
for the civilization Of the West that what
Europe and the South abandon as PERM
cious, citizens of new State are seeking
to accept as means to replenish State
treasury. The action of Dakota, if the
bill becomes law, would be more far
reaching than the bounds of that
State-it would probably result in some
other weak States, Nevada for in
stance, starting rival concerns, and for a
few years We would have the west side
notorious as the gambling field of the ma
ton. The spirit of gaming is widespread /;
wherever an avenue offers for investment
in lottery chances there are found patrons
of the schemes in plenty. The laws ap-
per to be powerless, even in California,
against this terrible influence, and while
.dcnunciation of the schemes is sown
thick as the leaves in autumn paths,

The Special Train of Railroad Officials

The special train bearing the party OF
railroad officials and newspaper represents
tives who went up into the Sierra snow
belt Saturday night TO witness the opera.
tons of the cyclone and rotary snow plows,
passed through this city last evening on its
way to San Francisco.
The party only remained on the scene of
the late blockade short time, as all were
DESTROYS of reaching home before bedtime.
The plows were given very severe test on
the Cascade side-track. The snow on this
track was twelve feet deep and was frozen
almost into a solid block of ice The
cyclone was the first to attack the snow
bank, but after running few minutes the
key to the cross-head of one of the engines
was broken, and she had to retire for re-
pairs. The rotary plow then took plunge
at the bank and had cleaned out about
thirty feet of it, when the party left,
owing to the interference of the special
train with the regular passenger trains.
The plows will resume work to-day, and
will clear off the various snow-covered sid
ings throughout the snow belt.

the laws that are intended to check the
evil receive no new vigor. But the time
must come IN Dakota, as it does come in
every community, as it has come in Louis
siana, when the eyes of the people will be
opened to the monstrous evil and the
infamy throttled. But such action will not
atone for the i'll done, if the bill passes; its
effects will be lasting decentralization, and
the profits that the State may reap from
its prostitution to the lottery will forever
be regarded as are the wages of harlotry.
The latest news is that large body of the
people are protesting against the measure,
and the hope is entertained that, if the
Legislature sinks to the level of granting
the charter, the Governor will veto the
bill. The protests ought to be fortified by
the people of the Union generally and the
local sentiment antagonistic to the lottery
scheme be given all possible encourage
ment and support

THE Grand Jury of San Francisco has
denounced the Jail of that county as dis
grace to the city and shame to civiliza-
tion-a regular "Black Hole" Of Calcutta.
That is certainly not courageous, since it is
simply the recital by an official body of
facts known to all people of that city who
read. Let the Grand Jury now turn its
attention to the Industrial School, and
prove to the people Of the State what a
useless and shameful institution it is-a
nursery of vice and training school for
the graduation of criminals.

As THE proposed new rules of the House
of Representatives are here understood,
there does not appear to be any objection
that can be raised to them that will gain a
foothold with the people. 1t is now pro-
posed that the rule shall be upon the call
Of the roll that the record shall show all
voting aye and nay, those absent or ex-
cused, and those present but not voting
The latter record is to be made on the sug-
gestion of any member that another is
present but not voting. Thereupon, if the
record of those not voting and those vot-
ing shows quorum present, it shall be so
declared. This would appear to be simply
a means of ascertaining the actual facts
concerning the bodily presence of the
members of the House, and to that we do
not perceive any objection that is strong
enough to justify any party going to the
country upon it.

INSANELY JEALOUS.
A Broommalxer Shoots at Young Lady

and Kills Himself.
HAMILTON (O.l, February 9,h.-George
Lummis, aged %. yesterday morning made
an unsuccessful attempt to murder Effie
Longnecker, aged 16, and then killed him
self by blowing out his brains with revol-
yer. Lummis came here seven months
ago from Centerville to work as broom
maker. Miss Longnecker is from Eaton,
and had been for week the guest of the
family of j. H. Harris, with whom Lum-
mis- boarded. This was the brief period of
his acquaintance with the girl, who is very
charming. Lummis fell violently in love
with her at first sight and was insanely
jealous of a favored rival whom he threat
ened to kill. Upon some pretext Lummis
this morning got Miss Longnecker into a
room and for the second or third time this
week asked her to marry him. She refused,
when he insisted that she pledge herself to
quit going with his rival and wait for him
until she became is years of age. This
she also refused, when Lummis threatened
to kill his rival and himself. The girl,
badly frightened. endeavored to get away,
but her prosecutor held her and urged her
to promise. She made some excuse, when
he released her and she started to the door,
turning as she went out, to find LuInmis
behind her with a revolver drawn and
aimed at her head. The ball grazed her
face, the powder burning it badly. AS she
fed down stairs q second shot was fired,
but that also missed its intended victim. A
third shot was fired and Lummis fell to
the floor dead

THE San Francisco Bulletin is nervous
to the verge of hysteria concerning the
frequency of the ''pop of the pistol" and
agitatedly asks, "What is going to be done
about it?" 1t expresses the fear that we
have entered upon an era in which the
value of human life has declined, and in
which the shedding of blood is to sup
plant the security of person from assault.
Certainly murder is rife, and the carrying
of concealed weapons is really unconcealed.
We have this to content ourselves with
No condition is worse than community
deserves. If there is infraction of the law
at San Francisco to such an extent as to
alarm our contemporary, it is proof that
the people are content that it shall be so.
If lawlessness and not the law denominates
it is chargeable to the people only. No
riot runs in city or State if the citizens are
resolved that it shall cease. If, on the
other hand, they remove restraint, toast
at home and leave the execution of the
laws at the mercy of the lawless, they have
no reason whatever to complain and are
entitled to no sympathy. Every COM
munity is Just as good and secure and
orderly as it deserves to be, and more
than that it is not necessary to say; that
covers the whole ground of the complaint
of our contemporary. 1t names half
dozen "causes" to which it attributes the
frequency of crime in the metropolis, but
underneath them all is the consenting
sentiment of the governed. At that level
the true cause for lawlessness is found.
The Bulletin evidently perceiving this, ex-
plains in excuse, that the people are not
governing themselves but are governed by
elements that draw their strength from
the very class that defes the law. But if
this is true, if the liberties of the people
of San Francisco have been usurped, we
still affirm that they themselves are
chargeable for the condition, and in them
selves is 10 be found the only remedy for it.
