AN AIR SHIP.

have an air ship. which will knock the
spots out of EIFFEL's invention. DR..
WELLS. of Troy, n. Y, an experienced
aeronaut, is now building an air
ship for exhibition at the Chicago
fair, and eminent scientists who have
examined his plans say that it is 60
ing to be success. The American
Architect indorses the scheme and pro-
nounces it practicable, bat thinks that
the expense will be heavy and that the
government ought to pay for the con-
struction of the air ship.
1t was lately demonstrated by an ex-
pertinent in France that swallows can
go through the air at an amazing pace.
Two of these birds, liberated from a
cage in Paris. arrived at Bordeaux, a
distance of 307 miles, in two hours.
Reasoning from this predicate, the
America Architect is of opinion that
the WELLS air ship can be constructed
to go 100 miles an hour. The aerial
vessel is to be spindle-shaped balloon,
made of aluminium, and will have
strength enough to resist external press
ure as well as to hold the machinery
necessary to propel it. In view of the
fact that these air crafts can be made
convenient and saiutary for purposes

Maine true to its motto, points the
way to general Republican triumph
in November. Without the emphasis
which full vote from its political re-
serves adds to it's verdict in preslden-
tial year, it has registered with unmis-

proval of the great measures enacted by
eRepublican congress.-Ne York

Mr.. Reeds majority in the last pre-
viouS election was not so great as to
enable him to read his title perfectly
clear to success in this, and certain in
fluences were at work that indeed

The result is attributed to falling
off in the Democratic rather than gain
in the Republican vote. While the
campaign of the Democrats was marked
by apathy. the speaker made vigorous
canvass, and his work has proved eff
fective. The election means more than
the return of Reed to the next house.
The country is now likely to hear much
of his name in connection with the next
senatorship. and, perhaps, even the
presidency.-NewY York Herald Qnd.)

Speaker Reed is to be congratulated
on the success OF his efforts to avert the
party disaster that was threatened by
the wayering of Vermont. By his own

parently succeeded in holding his state
to nearly its ordinary majority and has
secured his own reelection by larger
plurality than two years ago.-Phila-

WASHINGTON, Sept. ia caucus of
Republican senators was held this
morning, for the purpose of agreeing
upon an order of business for the re-
malnder of this session of congress.
There was full attendance of senators,
and Senator Edmunds presided. The
caucus was in session nearly two hours,
Most of the members had a measure
which he deemed of sufficient impor-
lance to warrant its being placed on the
order of business. 1t was decided. how
ever, to limit the programme to the fol-
lowing bills, to be considered in the
order named, after the report of the
conference committee on the land grant
forfeiture bill shall be disposed of:
l. Anti lottery mail bill.
9. Bill to repeal the timber culture act.
3. Bill 10 establish private land claim
courts.
q. Bill for the relief of the supreme court
5. Bill for the adjustment of claims of la
borers, etc, under the eight-hour law.
6. Bill making eight hours days work
for laborers, etc., IN government employ, or
employed by contractors doing government
work.
z. Bill to transfer the revenue marine serv-
ice from the treasury TO the navy depart
ment.
8. The Paddock pure food bill.
8. Bill for the settlement of claims arising
from Indian depredatons.
10. Torrey bankruptcy bill.
l. Bill 10 place telegraph companies UNI
der the operation of the interstate commerce
law.
II. District of Columbia BILL
The question of adjournment was dis
cussed only incidentally. 1t was the
opinion, as far as expressed, that, until
the tariff bill had been finally disposed
of, day for adjournment could not be
intelligentiy fixed. Outside of the eau
Gus the opinion was freely expressed
that after the tariff bill had been dis
posed of quorum could be held for
short time. When the pure food bill
is reached in the senate an opportunity
will be afforded for motion to substi-
tute for that measure the compound
lard bill, which recently passed the
house. Senator Plumb reported favor
ably from the public lands committee
bill declaring that railroad land grants
shall not be held to include land con-
tanning valuable deposits of gold, silver,
copper. lead, iron OF other metal, unless
the same be specified in the grant.

vote for the ALDRICH amendment.
Hence it is fair. inference that the
senate conferrees will yield what they
never wanted in order to retain what
they did want. In other words, bind

shadow of reciprocity, and that is all
the comfort our Western farmers are
likely to receive from the MCKINLEY
bill when it becomes law.
The GLOBE uhiteS with Senator VEST
in congratulating the country upon the
passage of This bill, because we believe
that the sooner the crisis is reached and
the issue brought to finish, the better
it will be for the country and for all
our material interests. We hope the
conference committee will get right
down to work, and will make short
work of patching the bill. The quicker
it is launched upon the country, the
sooner the tariff issue will be disposed
of. There are less than two months
from now until the November elections,
and it is important that the Republican
tariff policy should be speedily defined.

GO TO THE FAIR.
Remember,

remember,
This is st. Paul day at the Hamline
Fair.
All of the public offices, the banks,
and most of the business houses in the
city will be closed to-day at noon, and
all the employees will be given half
holiday that they may have the oppor-
tunity of going to the fair.
Any establishments that have not yet
consented to do SO are urgently re-
quested to close their places of business
to-day at noon, and give their employees
the same opportunity.
All the citizens of our city are urged
to attend the fair to-day. Make your:
selves as numerous at the fair grounds
as if q census were to be taken.
Minneapolis day was a great success,
the people of our sister city attending
the fair as they never have done before.
Let US be stimulated by their good eX-
ample.
The fair is unusually attractive this
year. The exhibit is pronounced by
competent judges to be the best of the
series of fairs. The amusements are
especially entertaining, and special
features have been arranged for to-
day.
Although the fair is state instltu-
ton, we have peculiar local pride in
it, and it is the duty of every st. Paul
person to patronize it, particularly on
st. Paul day.
Then tonight we will come back
home and have street illumination and
carnival exceeding in brilliancy the
splendid fete of last night.

MORGAN ON RAILROADS.
The Dis tinguished Albanian
Talks RapardIaSS oF PrOSDeots

The Dis tinguished Albanian
Talks Regardless Of Prospects.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE resolu-
ton offered yesterday by Mr.. Morgan in
the senate, calling on the secretary of
the interior for information as to the
lands of the Northern Pacific Railroad
company, and of other companies whose
roads were not completed within the
period fixed by the granting act, was
taken UP, discussed and agreed to. On
motion of Mr.. Plumb, the conference
report ON the railroad land forfeiture
bill was taken up. The main PROPOSE
ton in the report is contained IN the
first section, as follows: That there is
hereby forfeited to the United States,
and the United States hereby resumes
tile title thereto, all lands heretofore
granted to any state or to any corpora
ton to aid in the construction
of railroad opposite to and coIermi-
nous with the portion of any such rail
road not now completed and in opera
ton, for the construction Or benefit of
which such lands were granted, ana all
such lands ere declared to be a part OF
the public domain; provided, that this
act shall not be construed as FORGETTING
the right of way OF station grounds of
any railroad company heretofore grant
ed. Mr.. Morgan opposed the report as
a log-rolling scheme gotten up for the
benefit of all the Immigrant roads. He
said that while the first section pro-
fessed to be forfeiture, all the other
sections related to separate railroads,
and exempted them from the operation
to them certain pecuniary advan-
tages. 1t could scarcely be said that
there was any land forfeited by the bill
to the government in consequence of
the failure of the railroads to comply
with the terms of the original grants.
The most that could be said of it was
that few small railroads that had not
friends enough in the two houses to
stand up for them and hold up their
hands were to be crucified for the sake
Of CLOSING over and vanishing the
false pretenSe of general forfeiture.
After speaking for over four hours Mr..
Morgan said that he knew that the
questions which he had been discussing
were going to their grave in the pas
sage of the bill, butt that he had de-
sired to give them decent burial. He
had wished TO erect headstone
over the graves of the rights of
the people OH the line of the
Northern Pacific; so that the historic
record might be read hereafter. Ee had
wanted to remind the people of the
United States of the vast robbery per-
petrated by that company and which
was now sanctioned. wound Up and
brought to conclusion by the bill. He
knew what the vote would be. He knew
when the Republicans came in on one
side of the report, with the Democrats
refusing to sign it. what the result
would be. Whenever the bill was
passed the forfeiture of the Northern
Pacific railroad lands would be dead
and buried and nothing more would be
heard about it. Without finishing his
speech Mr.. Morgan yielded for a mo-
ton to adjourn.
