The clerk began reading the bill and
continued till 2 p. M, when unfinished
business became the order.
Hoar moved to proceed with the con-
sideration OF the election bill.
German rose to argue against that mo-
ton.
The point of order was made by Hoar
that the motion was not debatable.
The presiding officer (Hale) decided in
support of the point of order, but said
he would submit the question to the
determination of the senate.
After prolonged debate, it was de-
cided by a strictly party vote to proceed
with the consideration of the election
bill.
A point was raised about the displace-
ment of the eight-bour-law bill, by the
election measure, and a lengthy discus
sion on parliamentary points ensued.
Finally it was agreed by strict party
vote to proceed with the election bill,

earliest opportunity, move that the sem
ate proceed to consideration of the labor
bill just displaced
The clerk resumed the reading OF the

International Copyright Bill.

WASHINGTON, Dec. I'm the house,
to-day, Harmer, of Pennsylvania, pre-
sented a petition in favor of an amend
ment to the Mckinley bill, allowing a
rebate on broken packages of smoking
tobacco and snuff. Referred.
The speaker laid before the house the
senate bill referring to the court Of
claims, the claim of the Chesapeake Fe-
male college for property destroyed dur
ing the war.
In its discussion, Wheeler, OF Ala
bama, taking advantage of his recogni-
ton, proceeded to argue that the omis-
sion of section 80 of the tariff bill, from
the enrolled copy, rendered the entire
bill nullity.
The Chesapeake Female college claim
bill passed-yeas, l21; nays, So.
The committee on patents called up
the copyright bill.
The speaker recognized Simonds to
move an amendment providing that the
act shall go into effect July l, 1891, not
withstanding the efforts of Kerr of Iowa
to secure recognition for motion to adj
journ.
Kerr moved adjournment. Lost
yeas, 80 ; nays, 1872.
The question demurred on the de-
mand for the prior question.
Hopkins, of Illinois, moved to lay it
on the table.

of order that the motion was dilatory.
The speaker overruled the point, and
entertained the motion.
The motion to table was lost-yeas,
80; nays. 129.
Another motion to adjourn having
been voted down, the previous question
was ordered. The house then adjourned,
leaving the bill as unfinished business.
The proposition of the bill is to permit
foreigners to take an American copy
right on the same basis as American cit
izens, in three cases: First, when the
nation Of the foreigner permits copy
right to American citizens, on substan-
TALLY the same basis as its own citizens;
second. when the nation of the
foreigner gives American citizens
copyright privileges similar to
those provided for in this bill third,
when the nation of the foreigner is
party to an international agreement pro-
viding for reciprocity in copyright, by
the terms of which agreement the
United States can become party
thereto at its pleasure. All books copy
righted under the proposed act shall be
printed from type set within the United
States, or from plates made therefrom.

New Silver Bills.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-The free coinage
bill introduced by Senator Plum pro-
vides for a double unit of value-a dollar
of 412h grains standard silver or 25.S
grains gold, of full legal tender quality.
Any holder of bullion is authorized to
have it coined or receive certificates,
which are to be full legal tender.
Senator Teller's bill on the same sub
ject differs from the above in that it
fixes the weight of the silver dollar at
400 grains standard silver, and contains
no provision in addition to the existing
law for the coinage OF bullion received at
the mines.
Williams, of Illinois, has also intro
duced bill in the house for the free
coinage Of silver.

Strike of Alabama Miners.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Dec. 2.-The strike
of the coal miners of Alabama went into
effect yesterday. OF 5000 miners in the
state it is estimated that 5000 are out.
The only sensational feature of the strike
is the report that it was brought about
by the efforts of the Pennsylvania iron
manufacturers, who want a cause to
shut down the furnaces of this district.
1t is claimed that they promised the
miners strong financial support. A
number of mine-operators are going to
fill the places of the strikers with me-
groes.

A LOST ADDRESS.
A Trinidad Lady Writes to San Francisco
for 1t.

Mrs. Harriet Mcnamara of S1e State Street,
Trinidad, Colorado, while visiting in St. Louis
last summer. did not suffer with her usual sick
headaches and indigestion. But upon her re-
turn to Trinidad her old troubles came upon
her. 1t was not the St. Louis climate that did
so much for her sick headaches. The secret is
told in the following letter, received by Thomas
Price & Son, the well-known assayers of 524 Sac
ramento Street, San Francisco. Mrs. Mcnamara
writes:-
"Three months since was visiting in ST..
Louis and obtained two bottles of joys Vegeta-
BILE Sarsaparilla. 1t was of great relief to me in
my headaches and indigestion. Since my re-
turn to my home in Trinidad 1 feel the need of
it, and as have lost the address write to you
10 ask if you will not kindly forward this letter
to the proper number in San Francisco, and
have me sent few more bottles of this valuable
vegetable compound

often times moro pernicious in results,
owing to he worlds standards Of judg~
ing, than to transgress precept OF the
decalogue.
Such then should be the priest of God,
the represen tatlve OF the people in the
court of Heaven. With soul as white
as the spotless garments he wears, with
mind lmpid and clear, with the
JUNCTION of eloquence on his lips more
moving than the tabled lutte "whose
golden touch did soften steel and stones"
with all the benevolence and nobility of
gracious manhood, he rises up before Us
an ideal creation, but not too lofty for
the sublime office he holds. Can we not
hope that such one will be the priest
of the future? Star differs from star in
brightness, saint from saint in glory; let
us then admit without prejudice in all
orders and all spheres higher possible
attainments. Certainly we in this great
province of tho Northwest have two
sconsoling hopes.
We look forward to an ideal clergy
because in many respects we have 40
ideal people. Allowing for the dead
branches that will always be found in
great numbers in the most Furnishing
forest, we mnst say that the Catholic
people of the Northwest for devotion to
their Church, practice Of Their religion
and good moral and temperate habits
cannot be excelled anywhere. Now just
as the people are so are the clergy.
The clergy arise from the ranks of the
people bringing with them the virtues of
the people. A people with a state reli-
gion gives clergy full of seryitude and
bringing to the state; q people who in
religion admits but the divine authority,
gives clergy likewise unfettered and free.
The Church has always considered that
a devout clergy was the reward of q
devout people and therefore at the four
times of the year, in which Holy Orders
are conferred, prayer and fasting are Gu
joined on all the members Of the Church.
We have therefore in our power the
bringing about of this great blessing for
ourselves and the Church and the world
at large.
s A second reason for this bright hope
| lies in the fact that no one hes a truer
| or lof.ier or more ambitious desire for
the well-being Of his clergy than the
prelate who makes an appeal for your
cooperation to-day. Noone has better
grasp of all the requisites Of true
priest or : stronger determination to
| have. one day the ideal. ! have family
pictured to you, realized. This work
However IS yours, is mine IS well as his,
and therefore we should joyfully co
/ operate, since we know that our assis-
Itance will be appreciated and utilized
1 to the last farthing.
