WHAT MAY BIZ BIZ ij0iiij DtIG,
Very Few Congressman Are in Wash
ingtOn Yet, So All Predictions
Are Mostly Guesses.
INDICATIONS AT PRESENT
Are That There Will Be Struggling
Efforts at Financial Legislation
But No Tariff Tinkering.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.-There is
hardly the usual interest in the ap.
preaching meeting Of congress which is
generally manifested about the capitol.
There have been fewer arrivals, both
of senators and Representatives, than
usual, though the latter part of last
week a business air pervaded the house
end of the capitol, as several members
Of the committees on appropriations re.
sponded to Chairman Sayres request
for committee meetings to consider Ger.
tain of the appropriation bills. Those
members of the committee living in the
sUucs comparatively near Washington
remained in the city only long enhough
to transact the business for which they
were called together and then returned
to their homes. There are not now
probably more than dozen senators
and 40 members of the house in Wash
ington. Consequent upon this meagre
attendance Of congressman is the diff
Guilty of presenting any definite or
tangible forecast Of proceedings. Moth
ing like discussion Of politics by the
leaders of either political party has
been possible, and any prediction VEN
tured upon is simply the summary Of
the private opinions Of the probable
course Of events as uttered by the lead
ers now in Washington.
State Bank Tax Repeal.
Among the opinions one hears most
frequently on the house side and espe-
cially among Southern Democrats is
that there would be revival of the
effort to repeal the 10 per cent state
bank tax law, and it is already stated
that strong pressure will be brought to
bear in that cause. There is general
impression that the silver question will
also cut a figure of some sort in a short
session, but as few Of the Democratic
silver leaders have arrived and as none
of those who are here have definite
plans, it is impossible to say what may
be undertaken. The sentiment
among many of the most conserva-
tive Of the silver men is evidently
against taking up the question
at all because Of the futility Of
such course in view Of President
Cieveland's opposition to free coinage.
All expect struggling references to the
question, and some believe it will be
made a leading issue Of the session. It
is taken Tor granted that the adminisr
tration will propose financial scheme
on the lines Of the Baltimore plan, and
it was suggested by a leading Demo
cratic senator that if an effort should

THE SLAUGHTER OF DEER.
Six Thousand Estimated to Have Been
Killed In Northern Minnesota,

Six Thousand Estimated to Have Been
Killed In Northern Minnesota.
PARK RAPIDS. Mimi, Nov. 27.-The
destruction of deer in this vicinity and
north of this point has been fearful this
season. About 1000 saddles and car
casses of venison have been shipped
from Park Rapids alone this season. 1t
became necessary for the Great North
ern Express company to provide a spe-
clal express car to accommodate the
venison trade on this branch. It has
been estimatee by good judges that at
least 5000 deer have been killed this
season in Hubbard, Becker and Bel
trami counties. About one-half Of this
number was killed by Indian hunters
for the market. J. Selkirk, an
Indian trader at Pine Point,
brought in five loads of deer
saddles on Nov. 21, for which he re-
ceceived $507.11 in cash. In addition
to those disposed Of here or shipped
from here, large numbers have been
hauled out by team by parties coming
from Southern Minnesota and Iowa
points. The local consumption must be
added to this number, which is esti-
mated to be from 500 to 700.
Hounds Are Used.
This slaughter is assisted i'll a great
many cases by the use Of deer hounds.
A case has been reported on Itasca
lake where hunter went up the lake
in his boat in August. Taking a honnd
with him when he arrived at the de-
sired point, he started his hound into
the woods, seating himself on the bank
Of the lake. He brought in four deer
as the result Of the chase.
Deer are killed and marketed in
nearly all of these border towns in
nearly every month in the year. Local
game clubs are powerless to do any,
thing etfectual for the want of funds
and assistance from local officers, which
makes it uphill business trying to stop
the violation of the law. During the
past summer warrants were sworn out
by State Park Commissioner J. ".
Brewer, but owing to the non nterest
taken by the officer who served the pa
pers no venison was found.
About 80 tons OF fish was shipped
from Park Rapids alone this seaso !,
caught principally in Portage, Potato,
Eagle Island. Sand and the Grow
Wing lakss. Nets, seines and fish
traps were used by most Of these fisher
men. If the legislature does not find
some more effective way to preserve the
game it can readily be seen that tuere
will be none in very short time

FOOTBALL TOO ROUGH.

The Yale Faculty May Prevent Further
Games.
NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, Nov. 27.-There
is possibility that Yale may be pre-
vented from playing with Princeton by
the action of the faculty. One of the
professors said that the faculty would
probably take some definite action in
the matter, as the roughness of the play
at Springfield had set some of the mem
bers Of the faculty decidedly against
any more football by Yale. There is a
strong belief that the Yale-Harvard
freshmen game will be prevented.

THE BREAD OF LIFE"
DIR, RroughtOn's sermon at The
First baptist.

Another good meeting was had at the
First Baptist church last evening. Dr..
Broughton took his text from the 35th
verse of the 9th chapter OF John: 81 am
the bread OF life"
This was,' the minister said, "a very
interesting time in the life of Christ He
was preaching about Galilee and great
multitudcs OF people were following Him.
1t was about meal time and the people
were hungry and the disciples did not
know where to procure food for them
But Christ told them to have the people
sit down, and then took the bread and
fishes and told them to give every one
as much as they wanted. And after they
were through eating they gathered up Il
baskets OF fragments. Attcr this He
moved to the other side Of the sea, and
the people were hungry again. The
disciples asked Christ where they
would get bread for them. Then it
was that He said, 81 am the bread
OF life" He that eats OF the bread
of life will never hanger. Would
to Coo every man, woman and child
would feast on this bread There would
still be plenty left and room in the ever,
lasting kingdom.
"lf we 90 into every calling and pro-
tession in liie.we will find people unsatis-
fed. 1t is the course of nature But the
bread of life that Christ gives will sat
isty every one. There is but one cure for
sin, and that is to believe in Jesus Christ.
| want to say to you tonight, sinner,
that the blood that flowed from Calvary
| will save you from your sins and you
will be satisfied, thank God that man
in whatever condition he may
be, can be saved through Jesus
Christ. When we come to die
there is comfort in knowing that
we have Christ with us in our dying
hours, and that he will take us to his
heavenly mansion. Let every sinner in
this house give himself to Christ to-
night"
Pastor White announced that there
would be no service this evening but to-
morrow there would be service. morning
and evening, and he would thea make
announcement about the meetings next
week.
Quite a number made profession and
several were admitted to the church
DR.. Broughton left this afternoon for
his home in Roanoke. Va, where he is
followed by the good wishes of all the
christian people Of Ashcvllle.

WASHINGTON, May 26.--Aiter some un-
important morning business the tariff bill
was taken up in the Senate at 1890, the
first question being on the paragraph as
to iron or steel wheels which had been
reserved yesterday. The duty in the
House bill was fixed at so per cent.
ad valorem, and Vest, in behalf Of the
fiuance committee, moved to make it 4.
cents per pound, Agreed to,
The lead ore paragraph was then taken
up and an amendment offered by Dubois
to add the words method OF sampling
and assayiug to be that usually adopted
for commercial purposes by the public
sampling works in the United States
was accepted by Mr.. Jones.
Hill moved to place lead ores on the
free list. The bill, he said was not salts
factory to him, but he was now, and
always had been in favor of it's prompt
disposition. He said Mr.. German had
exceeded his authority when he said the
Democratic party was united on the
present bill, and denied that there was
absolute unity in the party. The bill
was satisfactory to very few Senators
and could not be satisfactory TO him so
long as there was a remnant of populstic
income tax i'll 1t.
In explanation OF his vote against ta-
bling the bill few days ago he said that
such motion woald have killed the
bill. The country demanded ac-
tion on the bill; it ought to
be perfected and then passed.
He said he would vote against any mo-
tion to table the bill so long as the Sen
/! ate was engaged in the business OF at
tempting to amend the bill and make it
better. In putting duty of - OF a cent
a pound on lead ore, Hill wanted to
know what became of the speeches OF
Democrats and what of the record made
in the other House. Free raw material
was the platform of the party. He
would go on record, he said, in favor of
free raw materials. 1t was because he
wanted Democrats to be consistent that
he made this motion.

A FAVORABLE COMPARISON
DEMOCRATIC TARIFF BILL.
WILL. PASS IN JUNE.
The Mckinley Bill Was Dragging
Itself Along All Summer-Re
bills.

WAsulNGToN, May 26.-Mr. II. II.
Evans, the Treasury statistician, who
has performed all similar work for the
Ways and Means Committee of the
House and the Finance Committee OF
the Senate for the last twenty years,
has, under the direction of the Finance
Committee, made comparison between
the Mckinley, Mills, Wilson and Senate
bill as amended. 1t shows that the re
ducton from the Mckinley bill by the
Wilson bill was 2S 80 per cent, and the
reduction from tie Mckinley bill by the
Senate bill as amended is 25.T9 per cent.
The reduction Which would have been
made by the Mills bill, upon the same
basis OF calculation, would only have
been lI,52 per cent.
AS consid derabe comment has been
ma de charging delay in the passage OF
the present tariff bill, it is but fair to
give the dates when the several bills
during the last 90 years have passed the
Senate. Walker tariff 1916, passed Sen
ate July Is. 1916, and was approved bv
the President July 80, 1916. Morrill,
tariff 1861, reported to the House
March ~, 1860, passed the Senate Feb.
ruary 20, 1861, and was approved
March ., 1861. Tariff bill of 1868
passed the Senate June 20, 1865. Tariff
bill OF 1883, passed the House June ~,
1852, passed the Senate February 20,
1883, and was approved March 3, 1888
The Mckinley tariff bill passed the Sen
ate September 10, 1890, and was ap-
proved by the President October
1890.
1t seems to be the consensus of opinion
| by leaders upon both sides that the tar
if bill will pass the Senate about the
| middle of Iune.
