money appropriated by congress and as

Coke moved to amend the resolution
so as to provide that the visit be at the
expense of the committee. Laughter.
The amendment was laid on the table,
and Pettigrew's resolution adopted.
At 9:25 message from the house an
nounced that that body had agreed to
the conference report on the sundry
civil bill. The report was thereupon
laid before the senate and agreed to.
Some remarks were made by Mander'
son, Allison and Cockrell on the work
done during the session, and at 10 20
the vice-president's signature to the
sundry civil bill was announced.

HOME. TILL AFTER ELECTION.

The first session of the fifty y-second
congress, which adjourned last night,
was no worse than its immediate prede-
cessor, and, in many respects, vastly
better. 1t did not vote away the peoples
money with the same alacrity to draw
warrants on the treasury, without wait
ing to see if proper equivalent was be-
ing rendered; nor were the majority as
slavish in their obedience to the dicta-
ton of King Caucus as was the majority
in that house of representatives which
Gear Reed said he thanked God was not
a deliberative body.
And adjournment would have been
had two weeks ago but for the appropri-
alton for celebrating the worlds fair at
Chicago next year. The appropriation
of five millions was deemed excessive,
as no other city but Chicago was to reap
any pecuniary benefit from the fair and
finally the resolutionsof Mr.. Du-borrow,
of Illinois, appropriating two and one
half millions to the fair, was taken up
and passed without any serious objec-
ton. This being all that was holding
them together, there was nothing to
wait for, and the members, only too
glad to get away from the malarial
effluvia of the Potomac marshes, ad-
journed sine die and returned TO their
respective homes.
The silver question occupied good
deal of unnecessarily expended time,
and to no practical purpose. The thing
which most astonished every ybody here
was that the silver advocates should
have forced the question to an issue
with so little positive numerical
strength. The silver question is not
dead but sleepeth, still Senator Stewart
and the bigger guns of the movement
must necessarily lament considerable
wasted ammunition.

Seattle has behind her only desolate
pine forests, and Portland is wholly de-

Europe, our own city has behind her
orchards that yield from 5000 to $500 per

cereals to be marketed at the other side

The Durborow Worlds Fair Bill Re-
ceived From the House aud Passed.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-The senate
waited some time, after convening, to-
day, for a message from the house, then
went into executive session and con-
firmed batch of nominations.
During the executive session mes
se ge was received from the house with
the worlds fair bill. After the doors
were reopened, it was laid before the
senate in regular session.
Vest said if he could defeat it by any
sort of parliamentary tactics, he would
do so cheerfully, Cockrell, George,
White and Harris also said they were
opposed to the bill.
Cullom said the people of Chicago
were willing to share proportionately in
the profits of the fair, If there should
be profits, but the house had not put
that stipulation in the bill, and it would
be dangerous to do it now.
After some further colloquy, Sherman
said the people of Chicago had already
done more than they promised.
The bill was then put to vote and
passed.
After some further busines, recess
was taken till 8p. m.
At the evening session, Pettigrew,
chairman of the quadro-centennial COM
mittee, called up the resolution to
authorize committee or sub-commit-
tee to visit Chicago during recess and

INGALLS, visit to Europe is said to be
to post himself on labor all over the
civilized world, SO he can make rose
colored speeches to the workingmen, in
September and October. on the benefi-
cent workings of the Mckinley bill. He
can save himself the trouble. The
Homestead outbreaks, which have arisen
since the talking skeleton crossed the
Atlantic, have thoroughly awakened
the workingmen to the duplicity of such
tariff shouters as Ingalls,. He is liable
to be any one of dozen things before
he again holds down a seat in either
house of congress. Ingalls, is smart,
bright and energetic. His persistency
offsets the genius of other men, but he
lives in a state whose people never
would have deserted the Republican
party il they had not indubitable proof
that Republican leaders were no longer
worthy of confidence.

In TIE death of Mrs. David Hewes,
sister of Mrs. Leland Stanford, the poor
OF San Francisco have lost a great
hearted and sympathetic friend. A
great bodily sufferer herself, she bore
her pangs with the martyrdom OF q

every one. She will be missed by all
who knew her, but it is in the homes OF

A grand woman has gone to her long

SHIPS are being chartered in New
York, the load assorted cargo for San
Francisco at the low rate of 81 per ton.
This, of course, is attributable chiefly to
the Russian famine, owing to which
ships are glad to take freight at almost
any rate to San Francisco if they can
only get return cargo of wheat. With
ordinary crops in the Black sea terri
tory, no such rate could be obtained.
The railway officials do not seem to
think that the present freights by ocean
will last, but in that they are mistaken.
American ships of 1900 tons can be
built at Coos Bay or on Puget sound at
very low cost, and can clear themselves
in three voyages, and there will be more
of them before there are less.

HANG THE DYNAMITER.

1t is impossible to read the accounts
of tie Coils outrage, on the line of the
Southern Pacific railroad, without being
satisfied that, while our criminal
statutes are good as far as they go, still
they are defective and do not go far
enough. When our present laws for
the punishment of robbery were de-
signed, dynamite had not yet been in
vented. Now we hear of its daily use
az lever to assist in robbery, regardless
of how many people are killed. Allow
matters to 60 on as they have been going
for the past four years, and not one man
in fifty will be found willing to accept
the post of baggagemaster or express
messenger between here and San Fran.
cisco.
Herein lies work for the next legisla-
ture. Our criminal code should be
amended 80 as to punish derailment OF
trains, otherwise than by use of dyna-
mite. by imprisonment for life; and in
all cases where this deadly explosive is
used, the offending party to be executed,
either by hanging or electricity, whether
any lives are lost or not. As Mr.. Cleve
land would say, ut is condition, not
theory, that confronts u.s." Extra
ordinary crimes should be met with ex-
traordinary punishments. or the fabric
we call government will soon be worn
threadbare.
A man fancies himself injured by an
other and loads up his rifle. He kills
that man coolly and deliberately, and,
after trial and conviction, we hang him
for it. II the death penalty is legal
and fitting one for the man who starts
out with fixed purpose to kill some par
ticular person, is it any too severe for
the reckless villain who deliberately
puts dynamite under railway coach,
not knowing nor caring whether he is
going to kill one man or twenty? More
over, death ends every mans sufferings
and, in many cases. man might as
well be dead as reduced to the condition
Of helpless cripple and an object oi
public charity.
Hence we say, never mind whether
the outrage by dynamite is attended
by fatal results OF not, hang the perpe'
traitor. This is a matter of great i'm
portance to Los Angeles people, most o.
whom have to travel by land between
here and San Francisco. Dynamite
means chance of fire, and fire means q
chance for repeating the holocaust Of
Tehachipe. We are aware that
such laws are sumptuary in
their nature, and at variance
with the traditional features of re-
publican form OF government, but there
is nothing ia republican form OF
government, as founded by the fathers Of
rs, which contemplates the use of dy-
Mantle. We are brought face to face
with an unexpected danger and must
meet that danger in the best possible
manner. Once give the train robber to un-
derstand that he will be hanged whether
he kills anybody or not; and he may not
feel quite SO ready to use his dynamite
cartridges to derail the trains.

The Growing Democracy.


EDITORS HERALD: Recognizing in you
champions of Democratic principles, l
write to you on matter which should
receive the undivided attention of the
juvenile Democracy, viz, the necessity
OF establishing and maintaining juve-
nile Democratic club. Such club the
Republican boys already have, and such
one we should have; we could meet.
discuss the questions that are now cloud
ing the political atmosphere, and al
though we may not solve them, we can
at least get the benefit of dicussion and
of the views of others, to relieve us of
mistaken impressions or to strengthen
our belief and arguments in favor OF the
glorious principle, Democratic principle.
of tariff reform.
Again, we could arrange with the Re
publican boys club for series OF political
debates, which should certainly mutual
ly benefit all concerned.
Can you not devise some means by
which we can organize, and partake in
future political demonstrations We
have only you to rely upon, and we
hope that your taking up this question
will be productive of successful results.
1t seems to me that if some old Demo
cratic standby offer his Office or hall or
any place where we can meet and or
ganize, we would then get started on
the road to success. The above are senti-
ments of many Democratic youths
whom have personally met and, do
not doubt, of many more whom | have
not met.

your valuable space and time to this
request.
