their beneficiary aspects. The meeting
was presided over by J. L. Eager, l.. L.

to request members of these several or

over the plans that may he adopted to
carry this obnoxious measure through

and emphatic expression of those pres
ent that the proposed measure, or any
measure of like character. ought to be
killed, and that these beneficiary associ-
RtiOnS be let alone.

ASHLAND, Wis, Feb. 19.-The rush
for the forfeited railroad lands, which
are to be opened to settlement Monday,
has begun. People from all over the
Northwest have arrived, and by Mon
day, it is believed, there will be at least
1000 ready to file on 300 homesteads.
At 10 o'clock Wednesday night Albert
Vincent and Abe DAILY, of Chippewa
Falls, took their places next to the re-
ceiving window of the land Office and
announced that they proposed to hold
them until o'clock Monday morning,
107 hours. They were soon Joined by
others, and at present there are thirty
people in line. including one woman,
Miss Hattie Mickelbine, of IrOnwOOd,
who is nearly at the head of the pro-
ceSsiOn, and declares that she will have
a homestead at any cost. They are all
provided with lunch baskets, and most
all have cots and bedding. Special po
licemen have been sworn in, and as
many will be appointed as necessary to
keep the peace. In case Of serious dis
turbdnce- the Ashland rifles will be put
under arms and stationed around the
land office, as was done at WauSau, to
protect the rights of those who are in
line. There are 5000 acres in the re-
stored land, but much of it is forfeited,
and the few choice sections are gener-
ally squatted upon by from one to five
settlers. Tonight, by unanimous con-
sent, the lady was permitted to leave
the ranks and go to hotel to sleep, but
to be back in line at Z in the morning.

Moore with reference to his statements
and called his attention to the fact that
they were in conflict with the testimony
before the English royal commission;
but Mr.. Moore insisted that his state
ments were correct, nevertheless.
William II. Beck, who is engaged in
silver mining in Montana, opposed free
coinage, on the groAnd that he believed
the present law, which took ffty-four
million ounces of silver annually out of
the market and absolutely locked it up,
was a better thing for the silver miner
than free coinage, under which all the
silver would be Oh the market. He did
not think free coinage legislation alone
could raise the price of silver bullion to
its coin value.
He read letter from ex-Gov. White,
OF Montana, expressing qualification at
the fact that free coinage could not pass
this congress, and declaring that free
coinage would be great disaster to the
silver industry. The sentiment of the
people, the letter said, was changing.
Ii congress were to pass a free coinage
law, he insisted that it should be pro-
vlded that gold dollars could be ex-
changed at the treasury for silver dol
lars and vice versa. and that if either
metal went up or down the government
should stand in the breech and bear the
loss. Adjourned.

QUESTION OF IMPEACHMENT.
The House Judiciary Committee

The House Judiciary Committee
Considers Boarman's Case.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-Ihe house
judiciary committee to-day again con-
sidered the subject matter of the reso-
luton already reported to the house to
impeach Judge Boarman, of the western
district of Louisiana, for high crimes
and misdemeanors, and Representative
Thompson will call it up in the house
tomorrow at O'Clock if he can obtain
the floor,
Judge Boarman has made application
to the committee to make a statement
in relation to the matter, but the COM
mittee declined to consider it, on the
ground that compliance with the re-
quest would involve practical reopen
ing of the case. In the committee to-
day Representative Rogers entered
a motion to reconsider the vote by
which the committee on Tuesday adopt
ed the resolution authorizing it to ascer-
tain and report to the house whether
any states have in their constitutions
or legislative enactments provisions
which should require a reduction OF
their representation in congress under
the Fourteenth amendment to the con-
shtutiOn. Pending action. the commit
tee then adjourned.

SILVER COMPROMISE.
congressman Working for Large
Silver Purchases.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-There is an
earnest effort making on the part of a
number of members of the house to Sc
cure compromise on the silver ques-
ton based primarily on larger pur-
chases Of silver. 1t is sought to have
this compromise measure adopted by
a majority of the coinage committee
at its meeting tomorrow as a substi-
tute for the senate unlimited free coin
age bill. Those who are urging the
compromise are carefully canvassing
their strength before they finally de-
termi1e to bring it forward III the shape
of a bill, and, unless assured of good
following, will abandon it. 1t is under
stood that the measure will not be
pushed unless an understanding can be
reached with the free coinage Republi-
cans in the house that they will not
bring up free coinage amendment,
but some of the unlimited silver men
have already stated that they will not
enter into any such agreement.

ANOTHER BLUNDER.
Secretary Noble Again Misman-

CHICAGO. Feb. 19.-The band of
Sioux who arrived here OH Tuesday OH
their return journey from Washington
to Pine Ridge, left for their destination
last night. Before leaving, American
Horse made this ignificant declaration
81 signed the Sioux reservation ceding
treaty, but when l saw how the mouths
of my people were closed III Washing
ton, | told the little chief Noble that L
would no longer be leader of my peO-
pie, but would mingle with them as
warrior in the ranks, rather than lift
my voice again on behalf of the white
man."
Louis Primeau, of the Standing Rock
agency and one of the interpreters with
the party, said:
In view of this last visit and the ex-
citement of last fall, know-and | am
no alarmist-that in the spring there
will be trouble. AT Horticultural hail,
in Philadelphia, where crowds were
present to see the Indians, the only
chief that received marked attention
was Two-Strike, who is hostile, and
always has been hostile The people
crowded round him, shook his hand.
ShoWered cigarettes Oh him, and made
the old fellow weary with demands for
a speech. The men who have stood by
the government for years saw this and
knew that they were ignored because
they were friendlies. The effect was
bad. and not only bad, but lasting.
They speak of it to-day among them
selves, and wonder why the whites
show no appreciation of the men who
have practically ostracsed themselves
from their kindred for the good of the
whites, and what they believed was for
the good of their own race. l honestly
believe that the attention shown the
actual hOStiles i'll the East to the ignor-
ing of the friendlieS will work as much
harm as the little attention shown to
both bodies by the officials at Washing
ton. Neither friendly nor hostile is
satisfied by his treatment.

Special 10 the Globe
PIERRE, S. d., Feb. 19.-Both
branches of the legislature adjourned
this afternoon to assist the local Grand
Army post and city in impressive
memorial services over the death of
Gen. Sherman. The legislature assem-
bled in body in the opera house, to-
Sether with the state officers, supreme
court Judges and other distinguished
citizens. Nothing was left undone to DO
honor to the memory of the dead gen
eral. The house Is holding a protracted
session tonight, arguing on bill TO re-
submit prohibition to vote Of the peo-
pie and defeat the present amendment
to the constitution. A majority and
minority report are under consideration
ana the session is apt to last until mid
night without bringing the matter to a
vote. Some think it will occupy both
houses attention for a week. 1t is
rumOred the prOhibitiOnsts are trying
to gain votes by promising to pass bill
to reSubmit the amendment giving an
other vote on permanent capitol location.
The house, by vote of 62 TO 46,
passed the bill for resubmiSSion of
the prohibition question at the next
general election one year from next
fall. it's believed the bill will pass
the senate and become a law.

mittee on Coinage.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-There was a
noticeable lack of interest to-day in the
proceedings of the house coinage COM
mittee, now that it has been decided to
close the hearings on the silver ques-
tion tomorrow, and only three MEN,
bers of the committee were present.
Representative Walker, of Massa-
chuSetts, continued his examination of
Mr.. Newlands, the inquiry being chiefly
on correlatlve subjects rather than the
direct issue involved in this silver ques-
tons. j. S. Moore, the "Parsee mer-
chant" made statement to the effect
that it was not the demonstration of
silver by the United States which caused
the decline in value of Silver, but
smaller demand for silver in India and
a larger supply of silver, due to i'm
portation among the Indian provinces.
India was called a ''sink hole" for sill
yer, because although great amounts of
silver were sent there, none ever came
back.
Mr.. Bartine closely questioned Mr..

carried, would upset their uniformity
of taxation. The bill in its present form
was not good one; he preferred to
vote upon the direct quettiOn, rather
than any one-half measure. Mr.. Sheets
voiced sentiments in support OF the
bill. Mr.. Tucker said the masses of the
people i'll the rural districts did not un-
derStand these questions when they
had these constitutional amendments,
and consequently was opposed to sub
nit any questions until they had been
properly agitated among the people,
and they had some opportunity of un-
derstanding what they were called upon
to vote for. Who called for this single
tax? The people from the cities; not
the farmers. He declared it to be the
duty of legislators to decide these ques-
tlons for the people they represented.
There was too great disposition TO
shirk the responsibility and send these
questions back to the people 10 decide.
Mr.. Tucker sat down amid applause.
, Mr.. Sheets-I wish to deny the state
ment of the gentleman from Cotton
wood, that the people In the rural dis
trctS are unable to vote ON this ques-
ton.
Mr.. Tucker-I did not say they could
not vote on the question; but that they
had not the proper information upon it.
MIR. Stockwell-That Is just what we
want to give them by having this ques-
ton submitted to the people.
Mr.. Walsh, Il. A., argued that the
people were well qualified to pass upon
this question. THIS opposition to the
submission of this amendment was a
remnant of the old arlstOcracy, which
was frightened of the people.
Mr.. Tucker declared he was not afraid
of the people. There was not drop of
the blue blood Of aristocraey in his
veins; he was opposed to the bill simply
because he did not believe i'll these
eternal pOrus plasters being added to
the constitution.
MIR. BjOrge spoke in favor Of the bill.
The bill was indefinitely postponed
by the committee, but when the house
rose the ayes and nays were called.
