RESOLVED. That in the death of Hon.
| William Window, secretary of the treasury
of the United States, we realize that our
sister state OF Minnesota loses one of its
o valned and hOnored citizens, and the
country is deprived of the services of one
, its most faithful and conscientious ser
wants.
In the vigor of life, with health's bloom
upon his cheek. crowned with the honOrS
of a high station, which his genius made it
possible for him to fill and adorn, with the
applause which his eloQuence deserved yet
sounding in his ears, he suddenly and
without warning laid down his burden Of
life and, passing the portals kept by suffer-
ing and death, found peacefully the end of
that pathway which all alike-the humble
II the ~eXalted-muSt tread.
A multitude of friendS-amOng whom
we, as representatives of North Dakota,
desire to be clasSed-bOW down their heads
in grief. His family miss the protection of
his strong arm and the love ct his tender
heart. A nation mOurns with them, and
offers it's consolation in their sorrow.
RcsoluCd, That the eloquent and in
Structive address which embellished his
last words on earth be printed at length in
the journal of the house as a monument to
his statesmanship and financial sagacity.
RcsOlrCd, That these resolutions be
spread upon the journal of the house. and
the chief clerk be and is hereby instructed
to have a cop properly enGrOSSed and
forwarded to the family OF Mr.. Window,
to whom we desire to express our deep and
profound sympathy at their great loss, and
to add our tribute to the memory of the
illuStriOuS dead.
On motion the resolutions of the commit
tee and the last speech of Mr.. Window
were ordered printed i'll the journal.
