Eeace lowered over the senate to-day. AS
q result Of the compromise reached yes
terday the resolution to inaugurate 'Ong-
er hours, bcginni1 g next Monday, COM
menCiDg at 10 a. M, was agreed to, and
then the senate for the first time since
the, tariff debate began, settled down to
zeal earnest work On the schedules of +he
t; riff. For five hours the considerati on
vas steadily pushed, the result being that
eleven pages of the bill were disposed of.
More progress than has been made in the
entire three weeks during which the oil
has been considered by paragraphs. The
chemical schedule, excepting items 81 to
o. inclusive, which w re passed owe: by
agreement, was finished. Schedule G,
metals and manufactures of iron and
steel had been reached when the senate
went into executive session. The Repub-
licans won their first victory to-day in
tteir efforts to secure higher rates than
tlose granted by the majority. They
il duCed the Democrats to take rough
building and monumental stone, lime
store, free stone, granite, sandstone, etc,
fl IN the free list and place them on the
dutiable list at &c per cubic foot, and to
il crease the duty on this class of dressed
stone from 20 to 30 per cent ad vulorem.
The feature of the day was the denial
of half dozen Republican senators that
| cry agreement had been reached to al
| low the bill to ultimately come to a vote,
and the bold announcement of Messrs.
| Frye of Maine and Dolrh of Oregon
| tLat they stood ready to go any length
and use any parliamentary methods to
defeat the bill.
The legislative, executive and judicial
| appropriation bill was taken up i'll the
house to-day. The discussion of the bill
| opened up several interesting and i'm
| port"nt questions, among them being the
sugar bounty, the pension frauds investi-
CATION and the reduction of the members
| pay for absence.

"Castoria is the best remedy for children Of
which am acquainted. hope the day is not
far distant whenmothers will consider the real
interest of their children, and use Castoria in
stead of the various quack nostrums which are
destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium,
morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful
agents down their throats, thereby sending
them to premature graves"

Washington, May 21.-The senate be-
gan the seventh week of the discussion of
the tariff bill to-day at 10 o'clock by TAX
ing up the metal schedule, and the pros
pect is now that the entire week will be
devoted to the tariff without attempting
any other business than that which can
be done in the first .half-hour of the
daily sessions and possibly an occasional
brief executive session after 6 o'clock for
the disposition of unCOntested nominal
tiOns. Senator Harris to-day reatfirmed
his intention of pressing the bill forward
us rapidly as it may be possible to do
so, but he said he had no idea of an
attempt to extend the daily sessions be-
yOnd o'clock so long as the work
should go on as satisfactorily rs it is
going at present He expressed the
cp nion that the Republican senators who
have been opposing the bill, and appa"-
entity seeking to delay it's passage had
decided to change their policy and to let
the bill proceed upon its passage after
giving the various items of difference the
attention demanded by their merits, and
il tanced the fact noticeable on Friday
and Saturday that there had been a de-
cidcd cessation of long speeches and of
roll calls as well. This change in the
cou1se of those of the opponents of the
bill who have sought to put obstacles in
the way of its progress, the Democrats
attribute to the two facts that their op-
ponents have discovered that they mean
to pass the bill, and that the Republican
conferences of the past week have de-
veloped decided sentiment in the Re-
publican party on the question of delay,
with, as they think, majority opposed
to all dilatory tactics.
The state bank issue which has been
gathering strength at caucuses and con-
| ferences ever since congress assembled,
was taken up to-day in the house and
promises to be fought to a finish this
week. 1t will bring out a sharp contest
on party as well as economic lines, as the
state bank plank of the Democratic ma
tional platform has advanced the ques-

Tom Bishop Luxuriates.

A thousand friends of Tom Bishor
in Mineral Point, will be pleased to
read the following evidence Of his
prosperity in "the laud Of the
Dakotas," and that he is appreciated
by his brethren of the press up there.
An editor Of . paper in an adiacen,
county having visited Tom, he goes
home and writes:
ave had the pleasure Of visit
with Tom Bishop, az the Volga Tri-
hune, Saturday. No wonder Tom
is jolly and fat. He owns modern
home, nicely furnished, and most
ertimahle wife superintends it. He
has arranged for waterworks another
year, when, If the season is AS dry
as this, his nice looking garden will
look still more So. Tom has two OF
more fancy purps and a real live
hennery. And, sey, he feasts bis
poultry ON watermslons, too! Gee
whiz, boys, think o that! Most OF
US can't afford sich for our families
Everything about Toms home il

THE FAIR NOW ON.
Auspicious Opening Crowd Immense Exhibits
Rare andcomplete,

/ The great Mineral Point Fair i,
in full blast as this number of the
TRIBUNE is issued from the press
Wednesday noon--and rs predicted
last week, il is hummer. While
the fairs Immediately proceeding, al
Dodgeville and Darlington, were
notable and highly creditable, it is
to Mineral Point the people look for
the fair Of Southwestern Wisconsin;
and this year, as usual, their an
ticipations are being fully realized,
Here are found the greatest mum.
Der and best horses, contending in
trials of speed. Evidence of this
is seen in the entry list published
herewith. On the grounds are to
be seen the rarest specimens Of
blooded horses, cattle, sheep, hogs,
poultry, etc, competing for the
liberal premiums. No competing
fair has such list of entries in all
departments, for the simple reason
that nowhere else are so many and
so good premiums offered, and no
where else do exhibits meet sc
many eyes-for here are congre
gated the most people found on any
| fair grounds in this section of The
state. The attendance to-day is this
greatest ever known on Wednes
day, and indications warrant con
fldeut expectation that 10000 peo-
pi4 will crowd the grounds to
morrow, unless the weather is un
propitions.
The unusual number of exhibitt
and the great rush of people are
taxing the energies Of the officers
and the capacity of the grounds
but by night and day labor and
constant hustling, it is believed the
demands Of the occasion can bt
fully met, and every animal and all
the people be suitably provided for
General business III the city will be
practically suspended tomorrow
| CThursday) afternoon, and the peo
pie of the city will join the crowC
on the fair grounds.

Iowa County Fair.

In its extended history, the Iowa
County Agricultural Society has
had few. il any more creditable or
successful fairs than that held at
Dodgeville last week. Exhibits in
all departments were complete and
of high order. After all that had
been heard about failure of.crops
through drouth, the display Of farm
products was surprising. Better
exhibits Of wheat, oats, corn and
other grains have seldom been seen
in the county, and vegetables dis
played show that there are some
good. potatoes, iarnips, cabbage
tomatoes, etc, raised in TIE county.
Of fruit the display was better than
usual. In the household and fine
art departments, the ladies did them
selves great credit. Live stock
shown embraced the best breeds.

Opened Mrs. Liken's Letters.

The populist governor Waite, Of
Colorado; Dennis Mullins, presl.
dent of the Denver police board;
Hamilton, chief of the police, and
Kate Dwycr, police matron Of the
same city, are charged in U. 5. dis
trict court with having opened aud
retained letter belonging to Mrs.
w. Likens, formerly of this city.
Dispatches give no details, but II Is
probable that in their anxiety TO
find some pretext for their unpopa-
lar action Of removing Mrs. Likens
from the position Of police matron,
Governor Waite and his political
associates violat ed the u. S. statutes
against tampering with the mails.
If this is so, it is to be hoped that
the official stations which Waite and
his confreres have disgraced, will
not interfere with theirreceiving due
punishment. Later Upon hearing
before the U. S. court commissioners
last Friday, there was found insult
fcient evidence to holdtbe governor,
and he was released. The Others
were bound over in $500 bail each
Public sentiment seems to be that
Mrs. Likens has been the victim OF
a gang Of unscrupulous political
sand baggers.

and some very fine specimens Of
horses, cattle, sheep, hogs and poul-
try. The mechanical department
fairly represented the progress Of
the county in that line, especially
of such implements and machinery
as meet the needs of successful
farming. The liberal purses offered
for races drew good field of
starters in each race, and there was
no "fakeo in either contest. The
best horse won each time. The
bicycle races In the sporting depart
ment was a novel feature, and the
interest taken in it by the people
justified its introduction. A son of
Geo. Paulson, ex-county treasurer,
was first best in the half and second
in the mile run. Unfavorable wind
prevented the balloon ascension on
Thursday, but it was successfully
accomplished on Friday. In point
attendance and financial returns the
fair was highly satisfactory. Secre-
tary John NJ. Reese and President
Thomas Thomas are entitled to much
of the credit for the success attained,

the crop Of candidates has increased.
Il il NOT to be expected that full

,hat people may be advised as far
as practicable, and presumiug thtt
none of those understood TO be

The name Of John Francis, Of
Mineral Point, has also been men.
toned for sheriff, but there is no
authority for putting him il the list
Of candidates. This is doubtless
true Of others named for diff erent
positions, but it may safely be
calculated that most Of the list are
| willing 10 make the run, and would
be gratifed 70 receive nomination,
Ii is settled that those named fol
the assembly are III t." Mineral
| Point cannot with reason expect u
present 10 the convention TWO cam
didates for the same Office and ee-
cape danger Of having both defeated,
and republicans Of the city should
decide which shall be endorsed.
Ii seems that this can and should
be done, without acrimony. The
republicans Of the city, when they
meet ID caucus. should be prepared
10 SAY squarely by their votes, We
want Shepard or Eve want Jones.
The TRIBUNE has no purpose 70 aid
the one nor prejudice the other; but
is dcsirous that the city present an
! undivided front on this office, be
lieying that BY 20 doing she may
secure the domination.
