There is every reason to believe that the

duty next Tuesday and will elect ma
jority of their candidates to both branches
of the City Council. They have every in

their ballots declare that they have conf

politics a trade, nor do they expect any
personal or political recompense. They
will serve the city faithfully and honestly
and transact its business with as much
care and economy as they exercise in the
conduct of their own affairs. That is

To Pay the war Tax.

WAsHINGroN, ID. C., F,b. 2l.-Tle Repub-
lican leaders in the House sprung a surprise
upon the Democratic minority to-day and
routed them completely. Next to the E!ec-
ton bill, the Direct Tax bill cones ir for
/ intense hatred from the Southern members
and they can be relied upon usually to yell
! themselves hoarse in their efforts to defeat
it. This meritorious measure, as is well
known, dates back TO the war In 1861 Con-
gress levied tax of 81, 100000 on the var
ious States and territories. to aid in suppress
sing the rebellion. The loyal States of the
North paid their assessment. while nearly
all the States in rebellion failed to do so. In
all over 81, 100000 was received by the Gov
eminent.
During the last Congress bill to refund
this amount 10 the States passed both Houses
Of Congress, although opposed by every
Southern Democrat. President Cleveland
vetoed it and the Senate passed the bill over
his veto by - yeas to 0 nsys.
sNorHrRED BY EX CONFEDERATE
The bill then went 20 the House and was
finally smOthered by the Democrats under
the direction Of Mills, Breckenridge and
other ex-confederates who would not allow
it to come to vote. II was introduced in
this Congress and passed the Senate easily
Since that time nothing was done and the
Southern Democrats were pulled into be
lieving that that Republicans did not intend
to pass it, Great wac their surprise this
morning when Mai. Mckinley reported a
resolation providing for its consideration TO-
day and the previous question to be ordered
a; , O'Clock.
Instantly the rebels jumped to their feet.
and under the lead Of Mills and ABlount
started TO ilibus;er. but they soon found
they were trapped. as the Rspublicsn ma
jority. aided by many Northern Democrats,
defeated them on every vote Realizing that
they could not check the juggernaut they
soon ceased 70 ilibuster and used up the
time in depicting the large deficiency that
they claim will exist in the treasury next
year and dePlored the idea Of voting back
this large sun Of money.
cHAEPIoEED ny MCKINLEY.
MAJ Mckinley in short speech showed
that there would be no deficiency, and that
this bill was a just one and should pass.
He stated further that if every State bad
paid its full tax then the expense would
have been equal and there would have been
no effort TO refund any oft, but il was un-
just to retain q tax which only portion Of
the Sra'es paid
The Democrats then endeaYored to attach
an amendment to the bin TO pay the s8s.-

they were voted down Overwhelming. and

YIcKsBURG, Miss, March IA large and
enthusiastic meeting OF citizens was held
last night at tie conrt house to protest
against the appointment Of James Hill, coli
ored, as postmaster here. Speeches were
made by many prominent nea. A series OF
resolutions, strongly denouncing TIE ap-
poiniment, was adopted and will be for
warded to Mississippi Senators and Repre-
sentatives.
They charge that Hill is not citizen Of
this city or district and has been repudiated
by its voters and that the President has
passed over and ignored reputable white Re
pablicans and members Of the Grand Army
of the Republic to appoint Hill. Republi-
cans as well as Democrats took part in the
meeting, which was distinguished rather foT
intensity than bitterness Of feeling. Il is a

told the policeman whom to admit, and all
having that privilege were admitted by the
officer giving two raps on the door, and

The Democrats seem TO be unaware
ths. they won victory on SATURDAY. in
Congressional district in New England
heretofore almost invariably represented
by Republican. The Democratic can.
didate was elected by an Overwhelming
majority. In fact, he got abou. all the
votes cast. Yet no Democratic newspaper
boasts of this triumph. Their silence is
almost funereal. What is the reason?
The reason is that the Democratic
Legislature Of Rhode Island deliberately
fixed the election on day observed by
numerous citizens as the Lords day.
They did this in order to disfranchise
those citizens, all Of them probably Re-
publicans. And the Republican party.
as protest in behalf OF freedom of con-
science and the sanctity Of religious con-
victions, remained away from the polls
No wonder the Democrats do not care TO
handle that victory. They think there
is dynamite in it, and there is.-N T..

WAsHISGrox March Speaker Reed said
to-day that both houses would have to econo-
mize time 10 get through.
There would be little time to pass any
measures outside of the appropriation bills,
and if there was any prOtracicd contest on
any:of the oontroverted points in these bills
one ore more Of them might fail. He had,
however, advised the Republican conferrees
not to insist, but to meet the Senate in a
spirit Of compromise.
There are evidences that the hot headed
democrats who proposed to deny Speaker
Reed the customary vote of thanks are
coming to their senses, under the advice OF
their more conservative colleagues, and
while there may be some negative votes the
usual resolution will be passed by the
House.
Both houses met early this morning pre-
pared to hold continuous sessions, if neces.
sary, until noon on wednesday, March 4,
when the Fifty-frst Congress will expire by
law. Their are evidences that the closing
scenes will be interesting TO statesmen and
spectators alike. There are many importont
measures on thecalendars upon which action
will be sought prior 10 the closing hour of
the session, out it is very doubtful if any
thing more than the appropriations bills
aud Copyright and Postal Subsidy bills will
