resolution of enquiry had been referred,
accompanied by another resolution from
Mr. Sanders, of Montana, broadening the
enquiry, so as to cover the Idaho trouble
reported the matter back in such shape
as to include both subjects. The resolu-
ton now coming before the Senate for
immediate action, Mr.. Quay objected to
its present consideration and it was laid
over until to morrow. A special COM
mittee of five was appointed to investi-
gate the bureau of geological survey.

sometimes born of desire to be pictur-
esque in speech. A school girl return

heard to say to a young friend: 81 didn't
wake up this morning until five minutes
before I. I'd rather have five minutes
sleep in the morning than whole week
at night"

The lady was talking to an old friend
about the marriage of her daughter to
a wealthy man. 81 understand" said
the friend, that Madge has married
very we'll" "Oh, yes" replied the
gratified mother, Every well indeed"
But he had such peculiar name, Fritz
zle-wiggle, wasn't it?" yes" That's
perfectly horrid, don't you think ?"
"Well," hesitated the mother, 1T doesn't
sound very melodious, possibly, but it, s
perfectly beautiful on a check

The Democratic State and district

Mr.. Ingle of Leeds, England, testi-
| fled before the British Royal Commits
sion now sitting that since 1874 his firm
has been importing workingmen's boots
from the United States and selling them
from 81 to Sl.13 pair less than similar
| boots of English make could be sold for.
| When it is remembered that the Ameri-
can workingman receives twice or thrice
as m UGH wages with which to buy his
cheap Yankee boots the difference be-
tween the protected and the un-protect-
ed wOrkingman is suggested.
"A disgraceful outrage, and which is
| likely to prove costly to those concerned,
took place at West Randolph, Tuesda v
night, March LIST, when five young fell
lows went to the house of John Wither-
| ton, and, on being refused admittance,
broke in the front door, and took Elmer
Ford, a simple fellow, from his bed, and
gave him a coating of tar and feathers.
| They then went to an adjoining room,
where lisa, the married daughter of
Witherton, was sleeping with her daugh-
ter, and attempted to give her a similar
treatment. She resisted, and in so doing
tore the mask from the head of one of
the young men, badly scratching his
face, which will make 1t an easy matter
for the States Attorney, who is inYesti-
eating the case, to identify him.
