What Kept Them Apart.

The great bone of contention be-
tween the two parties in the legisla-
ture in trying to agree upon the legis-
lative appropriation bill was the mat
ter Of paying the employees of the
Dunsmore house. The item, however,
was finally agreed to. The amount
paid the Dunsmore house was about
$4,000, and all the employees, except
Ben Rich, received their claims in full.
The matter of paying the fifteen fiat"
members of the Dunsmore house was
by the terms of the bill, left to Speaker
Douglass and ex-Speaker Dunsmore as
a special tribunal to determine
whether there were reasonable grounds
for beginning a contest Forty repub-
icans voted against it, but % republic
ans together with the 50 populists and
