HOUSE.
The house only sat .or half day yester-
day, but it had merry time over a resolu-
ton introduced by Mr.. keyes asking for the
continuation in Office of Warden Randall,
of the saltwater prison, until March1. This
proposition caused long and heated dis
cussion. Some of the members held that
the resolution was not consistent with the
law and that it was infringing the rights
OF the state executive, and wrongfully up
setting the acts of the board of prison man
ayers. 1t will be remembere that Warden
Randall resigned at the December meeting
OF the prison board, and his resignation,
although reported to have been VII 'hdrawn,
" 0S dCICp(Su dL the nG6IinS ana
Albert Garvln OF st. Cloud appointed TO
succeed him, and assume to office on
Feb. l.
Several members, including Mr. Lomen,
opposed the passage of the resolution for
the reasons that it would have no force if
passed and would be infringing upon the
prerogative the state executive and an or
ganiZed board.
THE RESOLUTION LOST.
AT length vote was taken on the mo.
ton to suspend the rules; sixty-seven MEM
bers voted aye and, as the motion to carry
requires two-thirds vote OF the house. or
seventy-six votes, it was declared lost and
Mr.. Keyes' resolution then went over on
Mr.. Diment's notice of debate.
1t is Mr.. Keyes' intention to call up his
resolution this morning, and, unless there
is great change of heart among the mem
bers, it will most probably be passed. 1t
may also be introduced in the senate and
If passed there the objections to its legality,
it is said, will be overcome.

The first question to raise breeze was a
joint memorial to congress, presented by
Senator Donnelly. This memorial pray
ed for the passage of the Butterworth bill
prohibiting the dealing in options. There
was long preamble in which the enormity

made that dealing in options had covered
the country with mortgages and produced
such a state of discomfort that portions of
the country were 'perilously near revolu-
ton"
Senator Stevens offered an amendment
which would make the paper more peril
nent, and it was likewise adopted. Then
all reference to revolutionary feelings was
stricken out, and the language otherwise
modified, and the amended memorial was
adopted, only Senator Morse voting in the
negative

Blaine Out of tho Race.

WAsHINGroN, D. C., April IA prom inent member of the United States Sen ate. who has seen James c. Blaiue within tho last thirty-six hours, says that the health of the Secretary of State is very poor
 MT. Blaine is only keeping up through sheer force of will" the Senator added He fully realizes his condition, and to him all the talk of his being candidate for President Is pure folly. Any ono who has talked to or seen Mir. Blaine during tho last few weeks could see be Is far from being himself. He has lost all his old time vigor, and has evidently lost all personal interest in political affairs so far as they do not pertain directly to his department. He Is taking excellent care Of himself and he does not expect any thing serious to happen to him in the immediate future; but the country must soon understand that Mir. Blaine, as a candidate for President in le93, is out of the question, for should he live year and half moro, the excitement attend ing such candidacy would be certain death
 "Indeed, MT. Blaine has said moro than once to intimate friends dur ng the past week that his only hope Is to live until his reciprocity scheme is carried to com plet on. If this hope is realized he will be content to c ose his pub ic career. For this reason it is but natural that Mir. Blaine hopes to see President Harrison enomina ed."

A Now Law Needed.

WASHINGTON, D. O.. Apeil 4--Ths Post says: "It is curious fact that Congress has never in all it's history passed . law making the violation of . treaty . punish. able offence. Year after year treaties guaranteeing protection to foreigners is tae United States have been ratifls and yet the gene ral governmo was fit with out the auth hority to enforre their provis. ions and prosecute their attractions. The necessity Of such law to fit the present difficulty is now plainly appa ent. Had Congress, immed iatoly after tho ratifca- tion of the Italian treaty, passed law making It specific misdemeanor to violate any provisi on of the treaty, there would have been no question of the power of tho United States to arrest and prosecute the ringleaders in New Orleans But DO such law has ever been passed, and the necessity for it's cnactm ent will be urge in the mes. sage of the President to Congress.
