MI. Bailey ON Congress- Power to Incor.
corporate . Private Concern.
Mr.. Bailey Of Texas is following in the foot.
steps Of Thomas Jefferson. Mr.. Hatch of
Missouri, however. thinks that Mr.. Bailey
hasn't quite caught the gait
In the House this morning Mr.. Bailey OBJ
jected to the consideration Of the bill incor-
porating the Society Of American Florists
which has passed the Senate and was called mp
by Mr.. Hatch. Mr.. Hatch explained that the
bill was in furtherance of public good and af.
forded the florists opportunity to hold theil
annual meetings in whatever state they chose
where they could promote interest in fori.
culture.
Then ensued dissertation on the Constitu-
ton Of the United States with Mr.. Bailey as the
exponent. He said that Mr.. Jefferson always
held that Congress could not incorporate pri
vate concern, and in Mr.. Jefferson's view he
conceded.
The debate threatened to grow warm, when
Mr.. Tom Watson Of Georgia, who is an expo
nent of the Constitution himself, called for the
regular order and the bill went over.

River to the Ners says: "Alex. Powell, scout
and trapper, known as old Rookie is in
from the Colorado river, and reports growing
uneasiness among the Navajo Indians because
of the invasion Of miners in quest Of gold. The
indians have held pow vows and the feeling
among them is hostile to the whites. The young
bucks were anxious for chance to distinguish
themselves. and settlers and prospectors greatly
fear the result. The Indians crowd into the
camps and insolently demand tobacco and any
thing else that suits their fancy. Trouble may
be precipitated by over-confdent prospectors.
should the fears prove well grounded the In
dians would have things all their own way. az
no concerted attempt at defense can be made. y
