MANY FLAWS IN THE JOURNAL

WASHINGTON, Sept. 30 2-The first OF the
days session Of the senate was occupied
In discussion Of the resolution offered
by Mr.. Plstt (Rep., Conn., for the estab-
lishment of a closure rule. Mr.. Platt
made such a strong and clear argument to
show the necessity for such q rule that
Mr.. Voorhees, (Dem., Ind) felt called
upon to express the debt which the senate
and the country owed to him for 1t.
Mr.. Lodge (Rep., Mass. also supported
the proposed rule, alth ough he foresaw
that it would place in the hands Of the
Democratic majority the power to pass
bills changing the tariff and repeating the
fede raj election laws. Amendments to
Mr.. Pl ats resolution were offered by Mr..
Hoar Rep.. Mass.) and Mr.. Hill Oem.,
N. Y.) and the resolution went over until
today.
The repeal bill was then taken up and
an argument against 1t made by MI.
White (Dem., COLI. who spoke for over
four hours. Mr.. Voorhees, made q motion
to lay on the table Mr.. Peffer's amend
ment to the bill. The motion was opposed
by the minority, who resorted TO filibus-
tering. After an hour or so spent in that
way Mr.. Voorhees, withdrew his motion,

7:30. when the senate adjourned.
The journal of Wednesdays proceedings
in the house was not approved yester-
day until the hour of adjournment. Mr..
Reed discovered some flaws In IL and
called the speakers attention to it. They
were attributable to the journal clerk, the
speaker not having had an opportunity to
examine the journal, and placed the
speaker in rather an awkward position.
Thursday, in his decisions, he studiously
refrained from decli ming to recognize mo-
tions, not because they were ''dilatory"
motions, but because they were mo
tions."
Mr.. Reed thought that the entries Of the
clerk were proper, even though they
might not be accurate ones. The question
OF approving he journal was postponed.
but later in the day was agreed to. In the
meantime the committee on rules re-
ported resolution providing for the con-
sideration of the federal elections bill on the
Goth OF September. the debate to continue
till Oct 10, when vote should be taken.
After brief discussion the resolution was
adopted

NOT IN 1T.

The Populists made poor show
] in Tuesdays election last week.
They were practically not in it to
any alarming extent. With so many
dissatisfied elements, it was expect
ed that the Third Party would cut a
considerable figure, but they were
feeble. In Virginia, O'FerralPs
majority for Governor is $4,000,
over the Populists, who made a
strong campaign importing Simpson
and other speakers. In other states
they were weak also. 1t establishes
the fact that there is no room for
third party in this country. The
two old parties will continue to be
the powerful factors in politics. One
or the other will rule. Which shall
it be? Any division in the South,
but tends to weaken the Democratic
party and put the Republican party
in power. Let all Democrats fall
into line and determine to vote to-
gether and carry out the reforms
that we all advocate. The Populists
can make themselves felt as Demo-
Gratis voting with Democrats and
help shaping the policy and princi-
Piles of the party and can thereby
secure the desired legislature need
ed. But division and factions means
weakness and a deferring of inau-
guratlng these measures. Let all
act together ia one party and de-
mand by our votes that which we
want. Any other course is unwise
and prejudicial to the good OF our
common interests. If Democrats
can form new party and powerful
enough to elect (Which they are not)
men to Office they would 0e just as
powerful to do the same thing inside
of the Democratic ranks. Let the
Southern people unite and control
their affairs.

Made His Last Trip.

Seated in the cab of the engine OF
death, with his hand grasping the
throttle of time, Ben Parker, the vet
eran engineer of the Iron Mountain
railway, has started on this long jour
ney TO that bourne from whence no
traveller ever returns. After long
and painful aflliction, necessitating a
delicate and dangerous surgical oper-
alton, the worn and world wearied
body Of Benjamin j. Parker, found
rest in the outstretched arms Of death.
The sorrowful event, which will bring
regret and sadness to the hearts of
many old companions and tried friends
took place at the home ofthe deceased
in Little Rock, at an early hour, on
Saturday morning.
The funeral services were attended
by large concoursc of sympathising
friends. The deceased was widely
known in railway circles and univer-
sally beliked by all who knew him.
lie was the member of several differ
ent fraternal orders, and was buried
with due honors aud appropriate cerc-

"Miss Lewis is handsome as well as
graceful--her acting was perfection,
and the applause which greeted her
was Of sufficient nature to assure her
hearty welcome. The company was
strong, especially Whitecar and Gus
tavus Levick. The costumes and
scenery called for plenty Of admira-
tion, and the Standard Theatre was
crowded with an audience which
thoroughly enjoyed the play, and
which gave vent to its feelings by con-
tinuous applause. @Lady Lip Is the

GROWING MORE UNPOPULAR.

The opposition, which has developed
to the annexation scheme of President
Harrison and Minister Stephens, in
which they displayed so much anxiety
over the immediate acquisition of the
Hawaiian Islands, becomes more and
more unpopular daily, and the feeling
of mild opposition, which at first was
manifested toward the proposed
measure, in the lower branch of the
National Legislature, has grown and
developed into open and uncompro-
missing hostility, not alone upon the
part of the Democratic members, but
Republicans as well. AS an evidence
of this fact we reproduce the following
article on the subject, from the pen Of
well known writer A very strong
feeling of hostility to tle Hawaiian
treaty is entertained by some of the
leading members of the House. 1t is
probable that the closing hours of
Congress will witness a lively debate
over the rights of the House iu this
matter, with a declaratory resolution
expressing the conviction that no ter
ritory should be acquired by this
country without the approval of both
houses of Congress. The movement
started with Democratic members, but
some Republicans are inclined to take
the same view of the matter and to
join in voting for resolution of the
character proposed. There was a
meeting of the subcommittee of the
Committee on Ways and Means in
charge Of the Springer Hawaiian
treaty resolution this afternoon.
The discussion of the Hawaiian
treaty was lively and full of interest,
but was conducted in secret session
and under and understanding that the
views of members should be regarded
as matters not for general publication
and as deliberative rather than conclu-
sive. The Democratic members of the
are Messrs. Springer,
Turner of Georgia and Cochran, and
the two former, AT least, perhaps all
in favor of such a declaratory resolu-
ton.
