SIGNIFICANT REFERENCES To CLEVELAND.
Some of Mr. Bryan's references to President
Cleveland and his message were exceedingly Sig

law is the only chief cause oil existing business

phatic and sweeping.
Two strong speeches were delivered by Re-
publicans, Mr. Nc all Of Massachusetts,, new

of them advocated the repeal of the silver pur-
chase provision, but declared that further legls-
lation would he nee ssary after that had pceh

Washington Aug 1.-THE Senate wasted another
day to-day without the slightest pretence Of effort
toward legislation for the relief of the financial
situation. No progress made either by the
Finance Committee or by the Democratic steer
ing Committee toward reporting OIL which
shall express the opinion Of the controlling party
In the Senate for against the PRESIDENTS policy
of unconditional repeal" and nothing was accom-
plished in the Senate itself even In the way of
disposing of the pending election cases which, as
questions of privilege bar the way 10 any other
immediate legislative action. Mr. Hoar' aiter few
scattering speeches had been made trled TO have
something done with the Lodge resolution OF
August 8 and with Mr. Gallinger's amendment to
1t postponing tariff legislation untii AFTER March
4, 1887 But the only Democratic leader present In
the Senate Mr. Cockrell OF Missouri prevented
a vote on either the resolution or the amendment
by forcing an executive session. ana lmihedmteIy
afterward an adjournment Inc Heha'e was us

Mr. Voorhees, changed his mind over night
simply to keep in practice no doubt-on the ques-
ton OF pushing the National Bank issue Dill TO a
.ote this afternoon. In Difference to desire to
debate the measure, he said. he yielded to the
convenience of a number Of his colleagues, and
would let the bill go over untii to-horrow ~
nobody paid any special attention TO the panKssue
measure after it had been thus successfully Josed
off the track il Is to be presumed that the
debate" referred to will b. held in reserve as a
means to force the measure back to the calendar
as often as It is called mp In the morning
hour" by the Indiana Senator. Mr.. Cockrel re-
newed his assaults Mr.. Noorhe"s's contem-
plated piece of favoritism to the National banks,
and announced that he would offer an amendment

small per cent bond issue now outstanding II

either as now up to 80 per cent or as proposed UP

1t is evident that Mr. Cockrell and others OF his
associates on the Democratic side consider that
Mr. Voorhees, exercised an unwarrantable liberty
in rushing forward the pending bank circulation
bill without first submitting IL for approval 10 the
Democratic caucus. The Indiana leaders assump-

partment from s25 to $50 per

plicant for the place at Weston be-
sides DR.. Lewis. The position Is
one OF the best in the State and
pays salary of $4,000 per year,
besides the best Of board and ele-.
gantly furnished rooms for the

only about forty years of age, but
is older than DR.. Lewis, who is the
youngest Supt. ever in charge. The

The Superintendent of the M. Il.
Sunday School here made a propo-
sition to tho school last Sunday
that IN order to raise money for the
current expenses of the school this
year, each member contribute one
cent for each year of his or her
age. This is a new and novel
scheme and we are in favor of it,
but we want the women to qualify
to the amount they bring in, that
1T corresponds to their age, other
wise none Of them will contribute
over sixteen cents. This plan will
be little hard on some of our old
maids and bachelors, but we are
satisfied that the latter will cheor-
fully pay 1T in order to find out the
age Of the former, if possible, but
we doubt if it can be done, for the
reason women are not allowed to
vote in this State, is that SO few
of them get old enough.
