the Mckinley bill, and make this his last
official act as member OF the present
House Of Representatives On Thurs
DAY he Will be sworn into the Senate.
de will reserve his tariff speech until
the bill comes up in the Senate, as the
limited time left for the proposed amend

!! speech-making. Mr.. Carlisle will, how
ever, make short speech opposing the
sub-treasury plan before he leaves the
House, SO | am told By gentleman who
is close personal friend Of Mr. Car
Isle. Mr.. Carlisle says he viii oppose
it, as most unwise measure, first, be-
cause it would array one class Of farm

tlca Gray advanced one opinion of spe-
cial interest to North Carolina It was
in favor of the State Of North Carolina
in q friendly suit between the United
States over the question as to the liabil-
lty Of the State for interest amounting
to about $47, 900 on certain North Caro-
lima railroad bonds purchased by the
Government for the Indian fund.
An opinion was also rendered affirm
ing the judgment Of the circuit court Of
the United States for the western district
OF Arkansas il tavor Of the Southern,
Kansas Railway Company against the
Cherokee nation. Tie Cherokees con
tended that an act ofCongress, grantirg
the railroad company right OF way
through the indian Territory, was void,
on the ground that the Cherokee nation
WIS sovereign state, and that the Uni
te States had not the right Of eminent
domain over her territories.
The court does not agree with this
contention, but holds thai the United
States has the right of eminent domain
not ouly there but anywhere within it
borders
