In happy homes he saw the light

Around. the sugar Senate shown;
And from his lips escaped Il grOan:

''The tariff hole is deep and wide"'
And loud that husky voice replied:

ooh, stay said David. ''stay and rest
Thy weary head upon this breast"
tear stood in his bright blue eye,
But still he answered with sigh:
Free Raw Material!'
'.Beware the storm that sweeps your ranch
Beware that awful avalanche!'
This was the DemOSratiu last good night
A voice replied from, out of sight:
''Free Raw Waterfall"
At break OF day. as heavenward
The piOuS senators gave word
In utterance of their daily prayer,
A voice cried through the startled air:

A traveller. by the faithful hound,

Still grasping in his hand of ice

When from his lips. where rolled cud,
A voice fell with sick ming thud:

To Keep Out Alien Laborers.

Washington special: Superintendent
Stump, of the immigration Bureau,
with the approval of Secretary Car
Isle, has issued circular directing
the immigrant inspectors to carefully
inspect all cases of violation of the
alien contract labor laws and report
all facts to the Superintendent of I'm
migration. If in the latter's judgment
the case is sufficiently established, the
Secretary of the Treasury will be asked
within one year after landing to order
that the said alien contract laborers be
returned to the country whence they
came at the expense of the owners of
the vessels bringing them into the
United States; hut if from an adjoining
country, at the expense of the persons
contracting for their services. The
circular is intended for general appli-
cation. hut is expected to apply at this
time particularly to the Spanish con-
tract cigar makers who were recently
brought from Havana to work in the
Key West cigar factories.

LOTTERY IN FLORIDA.
The Louisiana Concerns Attempt
to Get n Foothold There.


jacksonville, Fla, special: The
Florida Citizen will publish what pur-
ports to be an exposure of the estab-
lishment in Florida of the Louisiana
State Lottery. The Citizen claims the
lottery transferred its headquarters to
Port Tampa City on its expulsion from
New Orleans on Dec. 81.
The lottery designs to make this
state its permanent home. The change
in the lottery laws of the state, enacted
by the Legislature at its last session,
makes its existence here permissible.
When the lottery was driven out of
New Orleans a charter was secured
from the Republic of Honduras and an
office opened in that country, but
while this was being done to divert
suspicion from the real plans, much
bolder scheme was earned on. Agents
were sent to Florida and q tract of
land was bought at Port Tampa City.
Here a large brick building was built
and equipped with costly plant for
printing lottery tickets and literature.
The building was occupied ostensibly
by the Central American Express, but
in reality by employees of the lottery.
A Citizen reporter learned that while
the monthly drawing was to be con-
Quoted in Honduras all the rest of the
business was to be carried on in this

A NEW SPORTING RESORT.
A Gambling place to Be Maintained
ON Staten Island,


New York special: Unless some-
thing altogether unexpected pops up
in a legislative way it is certain that,
ere long, speculative New Workers
will have a chance to bet their dollars
at Monte Carlo Casino within gum
shot of the heart of the Metropolis.
The grounds are those which COM
pany headed by Erastus Wiman and
Ed Corrigan of Chicago, proposed to
buy last year for race track. Wiman
failed and that scheme failed. Some
time ago j. De La Wort and Maxine
La Mahche, wealthy Frenchmer AID
members of Paris sporting club,
arrived on LaBretagne with authority
to select a site upon which might
be established a gambling place like
that of Monte Carlo. La Manche had
been an agent of Francois Blanc of
Monaco, and dccamped with 100000
francs belonging to lhis employer. La
Wort was the first man in the United
States to make combinations on race
horses. The tract of land on which
these men have an options is half mile
south of Grant City. The park is
about one mile and quarter long and
half u mile wide. 1t is quite near
South Beach and has u fine front on
the bay. and it is proposed to erect
there a casino like that of Monte Car
10. The casino will cost about $780,
600. 1t is proposed to have mile
track on an incline, on which horses
will be able to break all records.

FROM present indications it would
seem that people are waking up on the
question of irrigation and there begins
TO be a vigorous kicking against the
continued advertising along up the
james River valley of che necessity of
irrigating in order to raise crops. The
kick doss not appear to be maze
against the attempts to irrigate by az
tesiun water us much us against the
continued widespread advertising re-
garding the questio which carries
with it the idea that irrigati m is q
necessity, and by SO doing is l-tarding
instead Of advancing the settlement Of
large portion OF the agricultural dis
trict. AS yet no thorough or practical
test has been made-so it is claimed by
the strongest irrigation advocates-but
what trials have been made have shown
that SO far tho second years crops were
SO much below the average as to Offset
the increase of the year previous, and
the farmers who have been succes sful
in diversified farming without the aid
If irrigation arc tiring of having it un-
nOunced to the world that as u farming
state South Dakota is failure without
irrigation. There are thousands of
farmers in this state who have made
hundreds of dollars on each dollar they
hal to invest, ten or fifteen years ago,
nnd you can't make them believe but
what we Gun raise crops without artl-
ticial water supply. The fact is, if
there IL any portion of the state that
needs irrigation that part that does
not need it is doing no kicking on the
part that does, but they propose from
now on to be no party to the false ad-
vertising that the whole state needs
irrigation. One real estate man says
that he personally knows OF several in
stances where parties Ill the East con-
;emplating making change of loca-
tion declined to consider South Da-
kota's advantages on account of the
necessity of irrigation and the expense
connected with the sinking of we'll,
the building of reservoirs, bitches,
ETC., that were necessary before d crop
could be put out with any reasonable
hope OF success, and this impression
has become SO general that steps must
'oon be taken to counteract the great
Injury being done to the state. Let
:rligationists practically test their
theories and then make u comparison
of their crops as with those raised by
equally as good q farmer on land that
IS not irrigated, and give these figures
20 the world. and there will be no oc-
,asion for kick, but those who have
caised an average of over twenty bush
sls of wheat per acre for ten or twelve
years-as has actually been done by
good farlners-and other crops propor-
:ionately good, don't want the world !,
understand that as farmers they are
failures.

Wilson Bill Passes the House.
Washington special: AT the conclu-
sion OF one of the grandest, most inn
posing and most impressive scenes ever
witnessed in the American Capitol, the
Wilson bill passed the House of Rep
resentatives by vote of 2O4 to l40.
The events leading up to it are almost
unparalleled in our annuls. At ~
o'clock, after preliminary skirmisl
of an hour over the barley sched ale,
the bill was reported to the House and
the closing speeches made. Such a
vast concourse of people as assembled
to hear the these last arguments upon
the great economic issue about to bo
submitted for final arbitrament to the
representatives of the American peo-
pie has never before been seen within
the precincts of the Nations Legisla-
tive Capitol. Nothing like it was ever
known in the history of the Oldest in
habitant of the Capital. For hours be-
fore the debate began the
corridors leading to the gal
leries we're a surging mass of
humanity, which finally became so
great that men cried out in terror and
women tainted in fright. 1t was esti-
mated that over twenty thousand peo-
pie attempted TO gain admittance to
the galleries of the House. Their
seating capacity is about three thou
sand, and every available seat was oc-
cupied long before the gavel dropped.
People were lined against the walls
and banked against the doors. So
great did the crush become that men,
bers of the House secured permission
to bring their wives upon the floor.
There was burst of applause as the
Wilson bill passed the final stage in
The House. The Democrats shook one
another by the hand, and Wilson was
again the center of congratulations. II
was exactly two minutes of 6 o'clock
when the bill passed.
Mr.. Wilson quickly moved to ad.
journ. Mr.. Boutelle tried to intervene
with a question of privilege, but the
motion to adjourn cut him off. The
House thereupon adjourned and the
exciting events of the day were over

will cut figure in the coming city

list of names will be used for political
effect. No clue to the thief has bcan

OFFERS FOR THE BoNDs.
The Amount of Subscriptions 1,
$54,5OS, 100, ut Good Prices.

The Amount of Subscriptions Is
$54, sos, 100, at Good Prices.
Washington special: Subscriptions
to the per cent. bonds have been re-
ceived to the amount of 54,5Os. 100 at
prices ranging from $ll7,2 to $780,
S29. There was also an offer of 20 per
cent. for one bond OF $50. There are
known to be on the way additional
subscriptions amounting to more than
$5,000,000, which, owing to delay Of
the mails will be entitled to considera-
tion, though the time for tenders ex-
pired at noon. New York subscribed
for $45, ,s33, $50, and Boston for S5.346,-
$50. No other city subscribed for as
much as million.
Secretary Carlisle made no attempt
to allot the new bonds, being otherwise
engaged, but he expects to get at the
work soon. at which time all delayed
offers will have been received and tab
ulated. 1t was said at the department
that it would probably be the 18th of
February before the actual exchange
of bonds between the government and
purchasers would be consummated.
When the money is actually paid for
the bonds, then the gold reserve will
be increased 10y the amount which will
be received. AT the lowest figures,
viz: the Secretary's upset price of
l.l7223, the gold received will amount
to more than s5s,OOO,O0O. This is on
the presumption that gold will be used
entirely in paying for the bonds. it
may be, however, as has heretofore
been pointed ont, that legal tender and
Treasury notes will be used Indirectly
to some extent in payments for bonds,
in which case the currency balance
will be increased in proportion.
