WASHINGTON, March 13.-The senate
to-day amended and passed two house
bills for bridges across the Missouri
river at Pierre, S. D., and across the
Columbia river, between Washington
and Oregon. Senate bills for large
number of public buildings were passed,
including one appropriating 100000 for
a building at Saltwater, MINI. The ed
ucatlonal bill was taken up at o'clock,
and Mr.. Blair addressed the senate. At
the conclusion of his remarks, Mr.. Call
endeavored to introduce preamble and
resolution regarding the nominees to
certain federal offices in Florida, but
Mr.. Chandler made the point that
they referred to executive mat
ters. Mr.. Hoar resumed the discus
sion of the laws of Southern states.
relating to Southern people. Had it
not been for the Objectionable laws
passed bv some of the Southern states,
he said, the government of those states
would have been remanded in 1865 into
those who governed before the war.
Mr.. Sherman asked Mr.. Eustis whether
he did not know that the fifteenth
amendment never would have been pro-

DEPRIvING THE NEGRO
of his rights of citizenship. Mr.. Eustls
asserted that all reconstruction meas
ures and constitutional amendments
were adopted by the Republican party
with the single object of Africanizing
the South and maintaining political su-
premacy, and this he characterized as
the greatest crime ever committed
against civilized communities" Mr..
Sherman then made long speech
in defense of reconstruction
measures Mr.. Butler, replying to
Mr.. Sherman, said if the debate had ac-
complished nothing else, it had shown
by the statements of the senators from
Ohio and Massachusetts that the suf-
frage had been conferred upon the
negro of the South, not because he was
entitled to it, not because he was quail
ified to exercise it, but because of GER
tain laws PASSED by some of the South
ern states Immediately after the war.
The admission Of the senator from
Ohio, he thought, would go long way
in throwing light on any future dis
cussion as to the right of the negro to
vote in the South. When Mr.. Butler
finished his speech the senate went into
executive session, and 5:15 D. m. ad-
journed until tomorrow.

The Seed Wheat Co ommiSSiOn De-
clines to Serve Longer.
Special to the Globe.
BISMARCK, N. D., March 13.-The
seed wheat committee, appointed to de-
wise means for furnishing seed wheat
to destitute farmers of the state, to-day
submitted the following sarcastic COM
munication to the house, which body re-
fused to consider the Louisiana Lottery
company's proposition to furnish 250,0O0
bushels of seed for the farmers:
To the House of Representatives of
the State of North Dakota: That a
strong necessity exists for prompt and
efficient action to relieve considerable
portion of our citizens, who are suffer
ing from the lack of seed grain and
feed, is conceded by every fair
minded man who is acquainted
with the facts. The near approach
of seed time leaves no period for inac-
ton and delay. We have deeply real
resolution calling for US TO devise
means" to procure the grain necessary
for seed and feed. With all the reve-
nues of the state more than antici-
pated; with number of the
counties needing assistance bonded al
ready to the limit allowed by the consti-
tuition, with the individuals who most
need help indebted and mortgaged to
the full extent of their property, it
seemed that the task laid upon us was
similar to that imposed by Pharaoh,
.'make bricks without straw" We
are not fitted to act the part of beggars,
and experience teaches US that a fund
derived from penny contributions
dropped into boxes placed in churches,
hotels, theaters, saloons and other
places of resort is too trivial to be
counted in the present emergency.
This state should be and is able
to relieve its needy citizens. The prop
ositiOn submitted by this committee in
connection with Senate Bill No. 167, if
it had been accepted, solved the prob
lem, 1t was not deemed worthy of con-
slderation by the house of representa-
tives. In view of this action it is right
to infer that the collective wisdom and
acumen of that ''wse and honorable
body" can readily "deyIse meanf' to re-
lieve the distress of our suffering citi-
zens and replenish the deplete
Golfers of the state. In our
opinion the proposition rejected

light remarks about the young woman:
When Miss Humpart heard what had

GREENNILLE, Miss. March 13.-Re-
ports up to $50 o'clock from all points
in this levee district, above and below,
indicates that all is serene this side of
the river. The levee board is fully
posted on the condition of the levee,
foot by foot, in the whole dis
trict. The levees above will
stand from three to five feet
and those below will stand two to five
feet more water than we now have to
contend with. Every preparation that
ingenuity of man can provide is being
made for any possible breaks or weak
places that may occur in the levees, and
the board has been so vigilant and ell
ergetic that full confidence is felt here
that there will not be break or an
overflow In this district. The rain has
fallen here for fifty hours, with but
slight IntermiSSiOnS, and the total fall
has exceeded five inches. 1t is
still raining and the indications are that
it will rain all of tonight. The river
here has risen one and half inches in
the past twenty-four hours, and is still
rising, with the gauge indicating forty
three feet. The rise in the river at the

LITTLE Rock, Ark, March 13.-The
Arkansas river is now stationary at this
place, and advices from above show
that the river is falling The danger
line was not quite touched at Little
Rock, which dispels all fears of floods
in the low lands along the lower Ar
kansas. The Little Rock d Fort Smith
bridge at Mulberry has not been re-
paired, and passengers and baggage
will have to be transferred for
several days yet. The situation
at Newport, Ark, at the
confidence of the White and Black
rivers is one of extreme danger. The
water is within few inches Of the top
of the levees which surround the town,
and is rising at the rate of three inches
an hour. The inhabitants are greatly
excited and with good reason Should
the levees break the destruction to life
and property will be terrible. There
will be no sleep had there to-
night. At Batesvile all that
portion of town through which
the Iron Mountain runs is foot under
water, and the tIalnS are abandoned.
Reports from the Black river valley show
that the low lands are now under water
at places so deep that the tree tops are
alone visible. JackSonport is under
water from two to four feet. Telegraph
and telephone wires are down in all di-
rections, and no estimate Of the damage
can be made. That it will be heavy is
beyond doubt
