Silver Men in the House Say They
Will Give Filibusterers a Dose of
Their Own Medicine.
They Will Block ALI Legislation, Even
to Appropriation Bills, Until a
Vote Is Secured
Upon the Bland seigniorage Measure.
Confident They Could Break q
Quorum.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 28.-Representa-
tive F'ithian, one of the active ieuten-
ants of Mr.. Bland in the silver debate,
says that the silver men will block ap-
preparation bills and bring every class
of legislation to halt until the opposi-
ton to the pending silver bill consents
to let a vote be taken. Mr.. Fithian said
in speech Monday that the silver men
would be justified in such course, but
later he went further and said they
would effectually carry out the plan.
He says it applies to all
of the great appropriation bills
for carrying on the government
and the local measures for public build
ings, rivers and harbors and general
improvements. 1t will apply also to
general measures of legislation, such as
the bankruptcy bill or banking meas
ures now on the calendar awaiting a
hearing. 49,
Mr.. Fithiaa was asked if the commit
tee on rules could not bring in special
rule giving the appropriation bills the
right of way. He said the bill would
have to be passed by the house, and he
intimated that the silver men were
strong enough to defeat such plan.
He is confident they can bring all legis-
legislation to standstill until the silver
question is voted upon.

The Hen and Protection.

Sioux Falls Press. OF course, an egg
is a comparatively insignificant thing
but whole lot of them amount to some
thing. For instance, a hundred and
twenty-five million dozen would cut
quite a figure. That's the number of
them which was imported into this
country during eight years previous to
passage of the Mckinley bill, and they
took out Of the country nearly nineteen
millions of dollars, which ought to have
been paid to theeggists who support the
great American eagle if not the great
American cuckoo. The average annual
importation during the eight years pri-
or to the Mckinley bill amounted to
about l6,OO0,0 900 dozen, and during the
three years of the Mckinley bill it
reached an average OF only about 5.OO0.-
dozen. And the consumer didn't have
to pay any more for eggs after McKin-
ley than before. But the American
producer had market for his hen
fruit. Wait until the Wilson bill lets
foreign hens drop thei, products into
the pantries of the United States, and
then the difference will be quite per-
ceptible to the Yankee fowl.

The silver question seems in fair
way to work out its own solution. The
financial system of Mexico, the boasted
example of free coinage country, is
badly demoralized by the steady fall in
the value of the white metal, and the
conditions of things in India, where sill
yer was recently demonetized, is such
that the London financial journals are
urging the reconvening of the intelna-
tional conference to take steps to adjust
the relations of the two metals. Slowly
but surely the progress of events is
forcing the whole world to come around
to the American idea of free coinage
under an international agreement,
which offers the only safe road cut OF
the present difficulty.

some of his enemies. He was not pres

IT WAS SPIRITED.

Proceedings of the Senatorial Caucus En-
livened by Another Speech by Brice.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S.-The Demo-
cratic senatorial caucus was the scene of
another spirited speech by Senator Brice
made in reply to speeches by members
of the finance committee, in which one
of them, presumably Senator Vest, had
said that what concessions had been
made, had been made at the point
of the bayonet. Mr.. Brice said that
apparently they had undertaken to
catch two senators from Louisiana with
the sugar bait, and had made arrange
ments for other voters by making con-
cessions on a few other articles. If these
additions were to be made, and an
otherwise ideal bill made to fit the re-
gions west Of the Mississippi to catch
these votes, Mr.. Brice wanted to know
what was to be done to hold the support
of the senators from the lati-
tude represented by himself and the
senators from New York and New Jer-
sey, and, he ad ded, that if the many in
terests of those great states could not be
given consideration, he saw no course
open to those senators bnt to arm them
selves with bayonets and pursue the
course of their more successful COL
leagues.
Cotton Machinery Free.
The only definite action of the forego-

place machinery for cotton manufacture

of the fact that they represented the cot
ton manufacturing industry which was
rapidly growing in importance in the
South. iThe proposition caused consider
able debate, and more or less reference
to favoritism, because of sectional lines.

4 Sensational story of Russo-cern.n
I. Encounter on the Frontier.

Moscow. Feb. 2s.-A sensational
story is current in military circles
here that a fight has taken place on the
Russo German frontier between de-
tachment of Russian dragons and q
number of Prussian Uhlans. Several
are reported to have been killed on both
sides. The Russian officers in thiscity who
have been questioned on the subject,
decline 20 specify what either of the reg
iments are reported to have suffered,
saying that they do not wish to cause
international complications. The fracas
rose out of the fact, it is claimed, that
the Prussian Uhlans were using the
Russian eagle fixed to the frontier post
as q target.

The Iroquis Chief has been speculat-
ing on the next presidential campaign
and has figured it out that South Da-
kota will be divided between 7. B. Reed
and VIM. Mckinley, with the lines
drawn somewhat as they were in 1892.
The Chief says that as Senator Petit
grew has already announced himself as
opposed to Mckinley, his following will
naturally go to Reed. Meanwhile we
desire to renew the suggestion we made
soon after the last presidential election,
that Senator Allison, safe, conservative,
yet thoroughly in line on Republican
principles, should not be overlooked as
a possibility. Every Republican in
South Dakota could unite with every
other on him if there should be any
such factional division as has been sug-
gested-which we very much doubt.

having made charges against Register
Davis of the Huron land office. Miller
denied the charge but Ward reiterated
it and there the matter dropped. Now
comes Mr.. Miller and asserts that Ward
was an active applicant for the position
of surveyor general of the state, which
Ward in turn denies. Whereupon nat
ional committeeman Woods writes Mr..
Miller as follows:
In regard to MIR. James Ward, I will
simply say that he was candidate for
surveyor general and that saw his Pc
tition myself requesting the appoint
ment and there was no Endorsement ex-
cepting from Mr.. A. Boynton. He had
also slips from the different newspapers
in the state that had commented upon
his election as chairman of the state
committee. There is nothing secret in
this as far as am concerned. nor do
see why there should be, nor why Mr..
Ward should for a moment say that he
was not q candidate. The fact is, he
went in expecting to secure the prize,
but he lostit.
For the sake of our good Democratic
friends we sincerely hope that liar will
be smoked out. He is apt to create dis
cord if he is allowed to run at large.
