bill is the most important which has engaged
the attention OF the two houses of congress
In many years, for IT not only affects the
revenue, but 1t affects every industry in the
United States. The house of representatives
had this bill under consideration for six
months before 1t came to us. and II has come
to this, that the finance committee has had
II for three weeks. CFive weeks corrected
a republican senator) We have 1t to rush
through. Speaking as a senator on this
floor, |, for one, intend to have an oppor-
tunty to consider this bill in every para
graph and in every item. We might as well
lay aside the idea that this important bill
is to be railroaded through the senate"
NOT so GREAT AS SILVER.
Senator Teller, in whose name and by
whose courtesy these explanations had been
made, spoke on the question before the
senate with reference to the Bland seignior-
age bill. He urged that the bill be i'm
medlately taken up and kept before the
senate until disposed Of. Referring to the
question OF the tariff, he said Mr.. Allison
had called the tariff the great question, but
II was not. 1t was comparatively the little
question, the monetary question was the
great question.
The morning hour having expired, Senator
Stewart had the right to the floor by virtue
of his previous announcement that he would
move to take up the Bland bill, but some of
the silver senators having told Mr. Stewart
that they were not ready to proceed with a
discussion of the bill, Mr.. Stewart waived
his right and asked that the bill go over till
tomorrow, when at the same hour he would
move to take it up for consideration.
The unfinished business, a bill for the
erection of a government printing office, was
laid before the senate, but Mr. Harris
asked unanimous consent that it be laid
aside and that the senator from Colorado be
allowed to continue.
The presiding officer laid before the senate
the report of the conference committee on
the urgency of the deficiency bill.
Mr.. Cockrel moved that the senate dis
agree to the house amendments and further
insist upon it's amendments and agree to a
conference, and this was ordered.
Some other routine business was trans
acted and at sos p m the senate pro-
ceeded to the consideration of executive busi-
ness and at 3:20 adjourned.

SEDALIA, Mo-, March G.-The American
Express and the Missouri, Kansas & Texas
road officials are much, disturbed over news
from the territory OF the movements of the
Dalton gang of outlaws. For several
months these criminals have been quietly
fortified in the Sapulpe mountains forty
miles west of Vinita. Friday night, IL is

armed and otherwise thoroughly equipped,
rode toward Vinita. Every Indication
pointed to a raid on the Missouri Kansas

the deed which nearly resulted in her-death.
She was once an extremely beautiful woman
possessed of considerable wealth, but years
of domestic trouble have destroyed all and
led her 10 tho mad house.

WASHINGTON, March 6,--Senator ALL
son of Iowa has introduced bill to put an

amendment to the interstate commerce act

ticket agents with certificate of appoint
ment, which is to be exposed to public view.

tickets at the principal offices or any ticket
office for the price paid, and partly used
tickets for the price paid less the schedule
fare for the portion used If presented
within ninety days after purchase. The
sale by any person of a partially used
ticket otherwise than as indicated is made
a violation of the act Railways which
place tickets in the hands of unauthorized
agents are made liable to a fine OF $4,000.

the secretary read Mr.. Peppers letter Of
resignation from his position as presiding
officer. of which be had given notice some
time since. The letter. giving the reasons
for this step, was as follows:
To the Members of the Democratic State Cen
trail Contmittee-GENTLEMEN 1 herewith re-
sign the Craftsmanship of the Democratic State
Central Committee Of California, as l have been
elected the chairman Of the General Commit
tee OF the Democratic party in the city and
county Of San Francisco. and do not deem it
prudent to hold both positions at one and the
same time, aud 1t is impossible to perform the
duties satisfactorily 10 myself and the party.
In severing my connection with the executive
branch of the committee 1 am pleased TO refer to
the friendly and courteous treatment that the
members OF the committee have always ex-
tended to me. They never hesitated TO con-
tribute their valuable assistance. 1 also desire
to express my high appreciation of the conf
dence reposed in me By you, and can only nope
that the manner in which l discharged my
duties will prove a satisfactory recognition of
the high honor conferred. l am under lasting

Hoping our future campaigns may produce
greater success and repeated victories l am,
yours truly, MAX Pepper.
This precipitated the first debate of the
session. there being prevalent desire to
retain the services OF Mr.. Pepper.
Raleigh Barcar of Vacaville arose and
earnestly protested against the acceptance
Of the resignation. II had the honor"
said he. "of nominating Mr.. Pepper for
the position he now holds. | then pre-
dicted that he would fill the bill acceptably
and had the ability and all the uualifica-
tons for the proper discharge of his duties
He has fulfilled all the expectations OF his
party. and hope that he may be retained
in the position he now holds. / therefore
move that the esignation be not acce pied. 4"
Mr.. Pepper took the floor and stated
that he had not acted without careful con-
sideration. He had concluded that he had
as much as he could possibly do to dis
charge his duties as chairman Of the local
committee. He urged the committee TO
accept his resignation, as he did not think
that one man should hold two positions
and be chairman of the General Commit
tee and the State Central Committee. 1t
was asking too much of his time, which
was wholly consumed by his duties to the
local Democracy.
Carrot McEnerny seconded the posi-
ton taken by Mr. Barcar. He added that
Mr.. Pepper was responsible to the Demo-
| cratic convention, and that he could lay
down his trust when that body should
meet. He had the affairs of the commit

than at any other time.
But Mr.. Pepper shook his head mega

James III. Boyd of San Bernardino here
injected an earnest protest. He said !:
Il am from the south. and we want Mr..
Pepper for chairman of this committee.
He helped us down there to win fight,
and we think that he should stay with us"
The southern member continued in this
strain and was followed by others, but
Pepper remained obdurate. He again de-
claTed that he could not assume the re-
sponsibility of remaining at the head of
both committees, but in spite of his re-
monstrances Barcar's motion to reject tn 9
resignation was carried without dissent.
MIR. Pepper, however, did not resume the
chair, Welburn presiding to the end.
The secretary read resolution prepared
by Garret McEnerny fixing the basis of
representation. 1t was as follows:
Resolved, That the basis of representation be
fixed at one delegate for each 200 votes or frac-
ton thereof amounting 10 so or more cast for

the county OF Alpine shall have one delegate.
The representation of the several counties
upon the foregoing basis is hereby declared to
