WASHINGTON, February 13.-SENATE.
The senate resumed consideration OF
the bill to provide a temporary govern
ment tor the territory of Oklahoma, the
pending question being Mr.. Plumb's
amendment to comprise No Mans Land
within the new territory. After some
discussion, the amendment was agreed
to, yeas, 2; nays, 16.
Mr.. Plumb also offered an amendment
declaring that all that part OF the Indian
Territory west of the Goth degree Of lon
gitude known as the Cherokee outlet
shall bc attached to the territory OF
Oklahoma for judicial purposes; but that
law and procedure shall be the same as
obtain in the remainder of the Indian
Territory; and the debate continued, No
action had been taken on the amendment
at 2 O'Clock, when the education bill
came up as unfinished business; but on
being appealed to by Mr.. Platt, Mr..
Blair consented not to press his bill at
this time, but to permit the Oklahoma
bill to be proceeded with. After further
discussion MIR. Plumbs amendment was
rejected.
Mr.. Vest offered an amendment pro-
hibiting the legislative assembly from
authorizing the issue oi any bonds. scrip,
or evidence OF debt by the territory or by
any county, city, town or township, for
any purpose except certificates for SER
vices rendered. lie explained the object
ut the amendment to he Il prevention OF
frauds in the issue of railroad and other
bonds by county or city corporations.
Mr.. Spooncr suggested to Mr.. Vest
that he should limit the prohibition to
bonds in aid of railroads, and Mr.. Ncsl
accepted the suggestion and modified his
amendment accordingly and it was
agreed to. Some further amendments,
merely formal. were agreed to. and the
bill was passed after Il remark by Mr..
Mcpherson that he would advise tn,
Indians that they ought to raise their
price tor the land; ought to double it, or
quatlruple it IL necessary, because. with
territorial governments on each side OF
the Cherokee outlet, the land was worth
ten times more than it was worth before

not take the Indians land from him by
force or by fraud, he ought to Ike able to
get good prize tor it.

THE SENTENCE APPROVED.
The Duke Of Orleans to serve Two
Years in Prison.

PARIS, February l3.-The republican
journals approve the sentence of two
years imprisonment imposed on the Duke
of Orleans yesterday, and say that the
manifestations made by the Orlcanists
preclude the possibility ofpardon for the
Duke. or reduction in his sentence.
The journal Dis.Debates says it hopes
the government will not allow the prov.
ocation OF the Royalist to prevent its ex-
tending clemency to the young Duke.
The Royalist papers refer to the noble
feelings that inspired the Duke to offer
his services as Il common soldier and
declare that in view of his patriotic
motives. the sentence imposed on him is
monstrous. The Salictc says the law of
exile is unjust, and that the country will
declare that it ought not to exist. The
Figaro announces that the law has been
applied moderately in the case of the
Duke. but expresses the hope that public
opinion will insist upon the prisoner
hcing pnrdoned. The Prcssc declares it's
belief that the Duke must be par'loned.

MR.. BLAND MAKES A POINT.
From the Jefferson City Tribune. /

FROM the JEFFERSON lily IFlOune.l
Congressman Bland says that eight
hours work per day is sufficient to earn
good living for any industrious and
able bodied man, but an additional
eight hours work is necessary to pay
taxes. At q glance this may appear
unreasonable, but when il is remem-
bered that the average government tax
on our common articles of consumption
is AZ per cent, 1t will be seen that MIR.
Blsnd's statement is correct.
Suppose that So cents would purchase
as much "a one dollar. which would be
the result If there was no government
tax, II would then be easy to UNDER
stand the difference. Mr.. Bland voices
the principles Of the democratic party
when he says that AZ per cent. is too
high rate OF taxation TO be maintained
In time OF peace But the great trouble
is that the people do not understand
that they are taxed SO high. Because
they do not take the money out of their
pockets and pay 1t to a government col.
situation. Everybody understands state,
county and municipal taxation, and
they grHmble not little at paying 8
per cent, which is considered very
high, but they pay the government over
fifteen times as great tax (or rather
pay the protected manufactures a
bounty, which amounts to the same
thing), without understanding how
hey are robbed.
II the government required auch an
enormous revenue the situation would
be different, and Mr.. Bland would not
be found advocating a reduction OF
taxes, but the government is collecting
more money than is needed, and the
republican party is sorsly pressed to
devise means for Rqusndering the rapid
ly increasing surplus. How long will
the people submit to such robbery

MISSOURI.


On the last day OF the old year the
New York World wired all the govern.
ors for something concerning their
states as the new year came iu. Gov.
Francis replied as follows:
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Dec. 81 -
Missouri, at the time of the last census,
was the fifth state in the Union with
respect to population, fourth in number
of farms and third in number of acres
of improved land, aud produced more
lead ore than all the states and terri :
tories OF the union put together. She
has not gone backward, but has pro
crossed and developed steadily year by
year.
AT the threshold of the last year OF
the decade OF the eighties she stands
only al the threshold of her greatness
as a state. With q soil that has never

prises prospering, she cannot fail ia
make a magnificent record during the
coming year.
Missouri has the largest interest
bearing public school fund of any state
in the union. and gives one-third of her
entire revenue to the support of the
common schools-a larger appropria
ton than any other state makes. HeI
people are hospitable, liberal, enlight.

respect her prospects are the best
