A Hard Fight in the Senate Executive
Session Over the Matter.

HOsSlO11 OFeI uIlS -L1f'tOoI'
WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-For the first
time this session the Senate struggled in
an executive session of the Senate over a
presidential nomination, that of Louis
McComas to be associate justice of the
District of Columbia supreme court. To-
day the Senate went into executive session
with determination on the part of the
Republican senators to confirm the nomi-
nation before adjournment. The opposi-
ton, however, desired to be heard, and
more than four hours was consumed in
debate. The opposition to the nominee is
based almost entirely upon the ground
that McComas is not a resident of the dis
trict. When it came to a vote, however,
there was no attempt to filibuster, and
the result was a decisive vote, standing
3S for confirmation to ID for the oppose

He Says sheedy's Statement Is Malicious
FaIsehood.

CHICAGO, Jan. 25.-Corbett denounced
Sheedy's statement that he had for
warded s., 600 to San Francisco to bet on
Sullivan, as malicious and unWar-
ranted falsehood. He further says: II
am at a loss to understand why
Sheedy should attack me, unless he
wishes to attain notoriety for him
self. The idea of Sheedy posing as a re-
former of pugilism, or as reformer of
anything, is ridiculous. He's a short
card gambler, man who has all his life
made a living off the credulity of suckers.
He's moral wreck, and the spectacle of
Sheedy on g high moral platform is alb
surd. I want no more truck with the fell
low and will have none.''

on Irrigation, Etc.
Oneida county's cup Of patriotism
was brimfull and running over this
week. Gov. Mcconnell paid it visit,
the first visit of governor in the
history Of the county. 1t was in good
taste for the county to to dine him,
wine him, brass band him and make
him speak No such honor had ever
been paid the county before.
1t was right too for the Governor
to visit the county. Every ruler
should make himself acquainted with
the needs and wants of his subjects,
and be can learn these best by visit
ing them and mingling with them. 1t
was the proper thing for the Governor
to visit Oneida
Moreover the Governor, so reports
say, wanted to learn something about
the irrigation and reclamation of arid
lands; the Governor also wanted to
teach oneida's people something on
the same subjects. He made them
set speech on irrigation and reclama-
tfon.
Oneida county is a good place to
study those subjects; it is good
place to teach them. Its proximity
to Utah makes them doubly so. Utah
has the master work of engineering
for irrigation in the intermountain re.
gions. The Bear River Canon Canal
is the work of master hand. Moth.
ing like it in all the land, and of
course the Governor saw it and in
spected ii carefully. He will return
to the executive Office at Boise City a
wiser man, he will know what the
skilled engineer can do for irrigation
and what money people will spend to
irrigate Utah has good system Of
irrigation and Utah has many sons
and daughters IN Oneida.
The News notes with pleasure the
Governors interest in this important
subject for it is an important one to
South Idaho, and it trusts that he can
find time to visit Bishop Budge's,
Bishop Donoldson's, Bishop Harris
and Bishop lnglestrom's dloceses as
he has visited Bishop Parkinson's,
and arouse the people to the reclama-
ton of more arid lands and make
more homes for industrious home
seeking immigrants.
