To Sue Uncle Sam.

1t is given out from democratic
circles at Madison that Attorney
General O'Connor is preparing to
bring lawsuit against the United
States to recover $7,975, 900, on a
claim for munitions Of war, etc,
furnished by the state during the
rebellion, under the act of Jnly 81,
1881. In detail the claim is:

Interest .16g. 03l.
Iotal ACKNOWLEDGEMENT .Ss,st0.Vvo.
1t is naively said that the statute Of
Limitation Is thought to be the only
obstacle to the recovery of this great
sum, leaving the inference to be
drawn that if former attorney gen

GUS in looking after the states inter-

might surely have been collected.

IT is creditable to the democratic
papers of Wisconsin that very few
of them follow the lead of the Mil.
waukee Journal in its disreputable
attempt to prejudice Major Upham
among laboring classes by falsely
representing that the company OF
which he is president practices pay
ing employees with orders on the com
pany store. That such a puerlle
course should be adopted is the
best evidence that no vulnerable
spot is diseoverable by the most
venomous, unprincipled slanderer
in Major Upham's public or private
record.

making and chair eaneing, mattress
and feather duster making. The
girls are taught sewing, knitting,

sufficient dressmaking SO that they
can make all their own clothing.
These classes received a medal at

there. Hou sekeeping and cooking
is a new and very successful branch.
The girls have made excellent bread

need be offered than that given by
some Of the more honorable and IN

We quote first from Bourke Cochran,
member Of congress from New
York:
"The passage Of the senate bill by the house
is the most disgraceful chapter in American
history. The position heretofore assumed BY
the house is conceded 10 be right, even by the
senate, and is now surrendered 10 some person
whose indentity even is concealed There
is no evidence that the senate would not have
agreed on a compromise. In the caucus Mr.,
Wilson was asked TO name the men who were
holding up the American congress- but he de-
cned TO do So We have therefore surrend.

be traced The walls Of jericho falling before

which they profess"
The day following the passage OF
the bill, said the Madison Demo-
crat:

WASHINGTON, July 2s.-The tariff situa-
ton has kept pace with the intensity Of
the heat, which for the first time this year
touched the 100 point. Throughout the
day there have been conferences at the
White House, tariff conferences of the
senate and house conferees, aud finally an
effort for house tariff caucus on Tuesday
to consider some means of solving the
tariff problem. Out of it all has come nc
exact and definite program, by which the
time of the passage OF the tariff bill, or its
form can be predicted.
President Cleveland's great interest in
the income tax struggle was shown early
in the day by the calls of Chairman Wilson
and Representative Catchings, the latter
being Speaker Crisp's associate
on the committee on rules
The presidents callers were careful
to refrain from any intimation of the
policy of the administration, and there
were conflicting reports MS to the attitude
of Mr.. Cleveland. Il was stated by those
closely connected with administration
affairs that be is as firm now as when ne
wrote the famous letter TO Chairman Will
son against yielding what lie regards AS
vital principles of tariff reform. On the
other hand the current Of opinion in con-
gresslonal circles seemed TO be that the
only solution TO the problem was in ac-
cepting the senate bill substantially as it
stands, with such concessions as the con-
ferees have shown a disposition to yield.
This current feeling would have found
expression late in the day in position
circulated by Mr.. Springer, requesting
Representative Holman, chairman of the
house Democratic caucus committee, to
call a caucus on Tuesday afternoon next
unless the tariff conferees had reached an
agreement by that time. This was the
first open expression toward yielding to
the senate bill.
The Democratic tariff ccnferees assem-
bled today and went over the essential
points OF difference on sugar, iron ore and
coal. 1t was stated at the conclusion of
the meeting that the senators had in effect
assembled and presented an ultimatum
which was the senate bill, and which, so
far as disputed features were concerned,
was the only tariff measure that could get
through this congress and become the law.
The house conferees withdrew TO the
ways and means committee room and
were in executive session an hour. Mr..
Wilson said at the close of the meeting
that no definite decision was reached.
IL Was determined, however to call in the
Republican conferees on Monday.

WASHINGTON, July 2S.-An interesting
story comes from u staff officer here of
high rank touching possible movements
against strikers in the west. The COM
mander of the division Of the Pacific at
Chicago has caused all tine news relative
to possible outbreaks against the railroads
to be sent him from the United States
civil authorities. Something in the ill.,
formation has induced unusually large
shipments OF ammunition for rifles and
rapid firing small field pieces to be sent
where it would be readily available in case
of further trouble.
1--WE do not believe that Debs and his set
will keep quiet long," said an assistant
adiutant general today. He cannot. His
very existence and that of the American
Railway Union depends upon agitation
aud let me tell you that the coaxing, milk
and honey policy, If there ever was such n
thing. AS practiced by the state and terri
torial authorities west of the Mississippi,
will not be followed by the United States
if there IS another outbreak of bridge and
car burning and the killing OF workmen
opposed to striking organizations. The
offenders will be warned and then the ser
ious business of the army will begin.
That's what this ammunition moving
meaus."
There are no Indian troubles in sight,
colonel?" was asked the officer.
mo, none. There never has been year
so quiet thus far among the Indians. As
sistant Indian Commissioner Armstrong
advises the interior department that the
far west tribes are unusually well satisfied
None OF these cartridges that are going to
Occur d'Aene or Butte are for Indians.
1t is to be hoped they will not be burned at
all. But Debs and company may as we'll
be informed now as ever that they will
not be treated as naughty children the
next time they make trouble. There will
be some shooting. and as much as may be
needed to make the lesson lasting one.
But there, I've talked enough already To
lay myself liable to court martial, SO l
will hush"
This was an officer who has seen service
from Yorktown i'll 1862 to Pine Ridge. He
is a veteran and knows whereof be speaks.
1t has been known here for sometime that
General Schofield does not believe in call
ing out the regulars until the time has
come for the shooting to begin. Never
again will the United States army be
dubbed by women. Whoever clubs will
