THE UTAH FAIR BILL
The House Territories Committee
Discuss it.
RELIEF FROM THOMAS VETO
Democrats, Republicans and Jerry Simpson
Favor 1.-THE Pension Bureau and
POlitics-House and Senate.

The Utah Columbian exposition bill,
which was recently vetoed by Governor
Thomas and which was introduced in the
House by MIR. Game last week, was the
subject of considerable discussion yester-
day in the House territories committee.
Mr.. Game explained at some length the
purpose Of the bill and the committee found
no objection to it except the section which
proposed an appropriation Of $4,000
by the territory with authority
20 levy taxes TO cover the amount.
1t was doubted by some Of the members of
the committee if Congress had the power
to do this and whether such action might
not be regarded as dangerous precedent.
1t was shown on the other hand, however,
that general sentiment existed through
out the territory favoring an exposition of
Utah's products and resources; that the
legislature as the representative of the
people had made provision for that pur
pose; that the governor arbitrarily made
use of the exclusive power invested in him
10 veto this measure because he could not
nominate the board to carry the bill into
effect, and that the people could gain no re-
lief except from Congress as the legisla-
ture does not meet again for two years. 1t
was suggested, too, that Congress might
with propriety sustain point In favor Of
the PEOPLE who were so wholly ut the
mercy of one man. This argument was so
convincing that tho members present
agreed to that some measure of relief
ought to be passed, and this conclusion
was shared, not only by the Democrats and
Republicans, but by Jerry Simpson. the
apostle of the Farmers Alliance, as well.
1t was finally decided that Chairman Wash
ington should be authorized to prepare a
preamble explaining the necessity for this
unusual action, and that with this addition
the measure should be favorably reported.

Glenn's Ferry fatally shot woman there
and made his escape from the enraged citi-
zens, who no doubt would have dealt out
summary vengeance on the murderer had
he not fed the town. General Roberts was
coming home on the train and was engaged
in talking to a friend about the affair, when
st way station stranger stepped aboard,
whom woman then enroute to this place

In the Senate.

WASHINGTON, March 31.-In the Senate
this morning, replying to direct question
proposed to tie committee on foreign rela-
tions touching the Nicaragua canal, Sher-
man, chairman of the committee, stated
the work was progressing favorably under
private corporation; that Congress had
done nothing whatever to aid it, and bill
is now under consideration by the sub
committee.
Morgan presented resolutions directing
the finance committee to inquire into
the causes of the depression of
agriculture and business and the
effect of the silver act of 1890. He an
nounced he would call them up for discus
sion tomorrow, regardless of the President
or the Democratic presidential nominee.
Morgan's object is to present his views on
silver, which he could not under the rules
when Stewart calls up his silver bill Mon
day.
After the reading of Morgan's resolution
and an explanation by that Senator, Sher-
man said il the silver question was to be
projected upon the Senate pending the
present condition Of public business, it
should be done on some business PROPOSE
ton, on some idea that had been considered
and discussed by the people, not on com
pick resolutions involving every variety of
theory and tact and every subject in the
whole range Of financial legislation He
hoped, therefore, the Senator from Ala
bama would put, in the form OF bill, some
proposition he desired the Senate to act
upon, something that would give relief to
the People of the United States
Morgan replied, and an allusion by him
as to the effect Of the silver legislation on
the Democratic aspirants for the presiden-
tial nomination drew from Teller the sup-
gestion: And some on our side" Morgan.
after discussing the subject further, asked
that the resolutions should go over until
tomorrow. They were laid on the table
accordingly. Soon after Teller and VOL
colt were seen in eager conference with
Morgan, as if to assure him he would not
be without support when the resolutions
came up

ton bill the provision to assign army

Minnesota Democr lie Convention.

ST.. PAUL, March I.-The Minnesota
Democratic state convention, held to-day,
was an enthusiastic sGleYeland endorse
mert meeting. Resolutions heartily en-
dorsing Cleveland and instructing the del
egates to the national convention to work
for him went through with rush. The
platform opposes protection, favors grad
ual reform of the tariff. On coinage, it
holds in accordance with the traditional
policy OF our party, the use Of both gold
and silver, and that the sole coinage func-
ton Of the government is to examine the
relative values of the metals of coinage
established by the commercial world; and
if there be sufficient fluctuation of the
value of either to make existing ratios IN
equal, then to readjust the ratios so that
the number of grains of either metal in the
dollar be equivalent, and then permit the
free and unrestricted coinage of both
metals. The repeal Of the Sherman silver
coinage act was demanded.
