ernorship, as he fills too we'll the position
he now holds and II he is to be succeeded
by some other man he should be placed
IN the U. s. Senate. Mr. Bowers is
unfal,ering in his advocacy Of silver and
is genuine western man in all his

What a great country the west would
he II silver was placed on an equality
with gold at our mintsi Free coinage OF
silver means great deal to the western
people and in fact to every man, woman
and child In America See the result of
the closing OF our minis to the white
metal in the boarded wealth in New
YORK banks, where there is now over
$3.50, ,000, 600 in gold that cannot be Dor.
rowei or loaned. II silver Was freely
coined does any one suppose that gold
would he stored away in this manner?
Not much. Each and every man in the
land would jnst as soon have dollar in
silver MS one of gold and money would
20 out freely from the banks for invest.
,nent in industrial pursuits. Fear Of
the fuure has parslyzed the money
lenders and they are hanging on to their
boarded wealth like grim death.

mission bill passing the Senate tn, meas.

we believe that Cleveland will never re.
sort to any low trick to continue in ,wer
the aristocracy of the east. With the ad.
mission of Arizona, New Mexico, Osla-
homs ana Utah the power Of the eastern
states In the Senate will go glimmering.
Bnt the states will come in, II not in
Cleveland's time, then AZ soon thereafter
as his successor IS seated. No power on

congress was necessary and imperative so
that the reorganization committee would
not have to wait too long before beginning
its work. He could not endorse the propo-
sition in the attorney generals bill con-
corning the lien proposed to be given to
the government in the reorganization
scheme aud said he thought that the
branch lines should be left out OF such
lien. Mr.. Boissevain said he represented
between 0.00o, 900 and $40, 100000 of the
compsny's securities.
Mr.. MorowetZ, one OF the counsel for the
reorganization committee, said the coun-
sci for the COMMITTEES were not entirely
satisfied with all the provisions of the bill
submitted by the attorney general One
of these provisions was one making the
court of appeals of the District of Column
bia the tribunal 70. the settlement OF It'll
cation arising as a possible result OF the
proposed legislation. Mr.. Morowetz sub
mitted the form of a bill which had been
prepared by the reorganization committee,
and which be said was identical with the
bill prepared by the attorney general with
the exception of section eight, which pro-
vides in detail for the manner in which
foreclosure proceedings shall be taken IN
case of default in respect of any obligation
or condition for which any lien now exists
in favor OF the United States upon any
property of the company.
Following Mr.. MorowetZ. the committee
heard statements from a pumber of the
members of the reorganization committee
aud counsel, during which the history of
che steps taken to bring about the reor-
gapization was gone over. There seemed
to exist in their minds the belief that the
extending OF the government lien over the
entire system of the Union Pacific rail-
road as proposed would prove serious
obstacle TO the carrying out of the plan Of
The committee adjourned until tomor-
row, when counsel for the Central Pacific
will appear.

FIXING TO FORECLOSE.
After the Managers Of the Company
for Defaulted Interest.

OMAHA. May 1.-The Bee will say in its
railroad column tomorrow morning that
there is an extrems probability that the
interest on the Dragon and Navigation
Railway company's mortgage SIS and Us
will be- defaulted for December This
will bring about foreclosure proceedings.
This is based on information privately re-
ceived concerning the nature of the report
made by the representa- tives of the foreign
bondholders of the O.. 4. & n. company,
Messrs. DauGherty and Cook. These
gentlemen went over the ground
very thoroughly in January and
have reportsd, SO the story goes,
adversely 10 the Union Pacific The man
agement of the Oregon Railway and Nayi-
CATION company is criticized severely, the
report citing many instances In which
terms and provisions of the lease have
been ignored. So strong is the report that
Oliver w. Mink, the Union Pacific re-
ce!yer, has prepared "A rsfutation of the
charges and findings of the committee,
which was filed aloEs with the report.
A circular has been sent out calling on
boudholders of the issue mentioned to
deposit them on or before May %. in view
of the probable defalcation of the Decem-
Der interest, so that foreclosure proceed
ings may be begun immediately There is
good reason for stating that a petition
will soon be filed in tbs circuit court of
Oregon tor separate receivers, pending the
foreclosure of the mortgage on the Oregon
Railway and Navigation company's plant.
