The Final Struggle.

1t was complete victory for the senate.
The result grew directly out of the sensa-
tionaI course of events at the senate end
of the Capitol precipitated by Senator
Hill on Friday. Up to that time, the
house conferrees had stood firm against
the senate amendments, especially on coal,
iron ore and sugar, and the temper and
voice of the house were for war to the end.
But the indications that the Democrats of
the senate might be unable to longer hold
majority of the votes in line for even the
senate bill, and that the bill was in terri
BILE jeopardy, forced the house Democrats
to immediate action.
The Democratic conferrees of the house
at last admitted that they were beaten
and that another vote could not be risked
in the senate; that it must be either the
senate bill or no bill.
The whole question was precipitated at
the caucus held just before the house con-
vened yesterday, at which, after a thor
ough review of the situation and speeches
in favor of receding by Speaker Crisp
Chairman Wilson and others, it was de-
cided to take the senate bill and immedi-
ately afterwards pass separate bills plac-
ing COAL iron ore, sugar and barbed wire
on the free list.
The program arranged in the caucus
was carried out to the letter in the house
under an ironclad special order. The
scenes in the chamber throughout the day
and even in the night were exciting and at
times sensational. The galleries were
packed and the members applauded their
respective leaders to the echo.
The result summed up is: The house
accepted the senate bill, 1872 to los.
Passed the free sugar bill, 276 to IL.
Passed the free coal BILL 100 to 104
Passed the free iron BILL 1853 to 1O2
Passed the free barbed wire bill, 1877 to S4.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.--The long strug-
gle over the tariff bill cdsme to close at
o'clock last evening, when the house, by a
vote of 1872 to 105, decided to discharge the
house conferrees from further considera-
tion OF the bill, recede from it's opposition
to the 634 senate amendments and agree to
the same
Chairman Wilson's speech in the caucus
was simply explanatory, telling of the
difficulties and embarrassments which the
house conferrees encountered from the
outset. He informed the house that he
and his associates had finally become con-
vinced that it was the senate bill or moth
ing. Therefore, he and his associates,
with Speaker Crisp and other leaders, had
reluctantly accepted the situation.
There was spirited discussion on the
question of Immediately bringing forward
a proposition as soon as the tariff bill was
disposed of to pass bills to put sugar, coal
and iron ore on the free list. The senti-
ment of those present was overwhelmingly
in favor of such a course and it was almost
Immediately adopted.
Efforts were made by several members
in the caucus to ascertain the attitude of
President Cleveland, and whether he would
sign the measure, but no one present, not
even Chairman Wilson, was authorized to
say what course the president would take
in the matter. His friends in the house,
however, are confident that he will sign
the bill.
One of the conditions that induced him
to consent to the senate bill was that the
house should Immediately pass a bill for
free coal and iron ore. This is what he
has been contending for from the begin
ming. He did not approve of the free
sugar proposition. He wanted the rev.
enue that would be derived from this arti-
Gle.

issued by the New England weather serv.
ice:
There is some complaint of want of
rain in northern and eastern Maine this
week, one correspondent In Aroostook
county saying that on light land potatoes
are at standstill. Generally, this crop
promises well, and the warm days and cool
nights of the week are favorable for them,
serving to check or hold off the rust.
Light showers have fallen during the
week over most of New Hampshire, but
throughout all central counties much
more moisture is needed for the proper de-
velopment Of field crops of all kinds. The
pastures are reported as feeling the want
of rain as much as anything now. There
is little feed and cows are shrinking badly.
There is some complaint Of lack of rain
In the northern part Of Vermont, but gen.
orally crops are growing very well. Corn
is pushing ahead. In the south 1t has
heavy growth and is reported to be gen.
orally well cared. In southern counties
the potato crops appear greener and more
luxuriant than common, but there are
few potatoes in the hills; there are some
pieces damaged by blight or rust, but it is
not general and only slight as yet.
Conditions of drought continue in south
eastern and all western-contral and west
ern Massachusetts. Pastures are drying
badly and flow of milk is shortening IN
Hampden county there is q large growth
OF corn, and the ears are generally set we'll.
Good showers have fallon in Rhode
Island and eastern Connecticut during the
week, and the crops are much improved.
Corn, especially, IS pushing ahead fast,
though some pieces are permanently in
jured and will not ear as well us usual.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF ALLEN COUNTY,
TWO YEARS Is THE LIMIT.

Nearly six months ago notice was
given that after the first of the COM
ing January the REGISTER would not
be sent to anyone whose subscription
was more that two years i'm arrears.
This brief paragraph is published
now to remind all those whom it may
concern that they should settle up
during the next six weeks Bills will
be sent about the first of December to
all to whom this notice still applies,
and we very much hope that we will
not have to strike a single name off
the list on account of failure to make
proper settlement. There isn't any
hostility in this. It is purely mat
ter of business, and nobody who re-
ceives a statement should get out of
humor about it. If you think there
is any danger that you would be Of
tended if bill were sent you, come
in and pay up before December /, and
no bin will he sentl That is fair
proposit ION. isn't it?

he wants that vote to represent the
wishes of the Republicans of Allen

one vote can do so. He wOuid he
glad therefore if every Republican in
those two counties who has pro-
nonnced preference for senator would
mail him a card with the name of his
choice The cards viii all be filed,
and if they show a pronounced senti-
ment for any one candidate, that man
will certainly receive the support of
the member from this district.

A CHILD's THOUGHT.

We were ling ering an Autumn
morning at one of those home tables,
where the parents are the children's
companions and both go together as
learners to he marvellous book of ma
ture.
The children were running indoors
and out and singing at their play.
Papa" said little Rollin, coming in
with tears glistening in his big blue
eyes, "All the little trees are dying.
See the yellow leavesu' mo Darling
they are not dying. they are only 60
ing to sleep and will awake fresher
and brighter than ever i'm the Spring
when the birds and the roses come
again."
The children were forgotten and
we were talking still when the bright
baby boy interrupted with a touch of
infinite pathos: Papa, I've kissed
brother Bcrtie's dear little tree good
bye"
There were other moist eyes at that
breakfast table, for the little oak con-
secra ted by that innocent kiss, burst
its acorn on the natal day of the first
born of the household, and is sacred
of the fair-haired boy who has gone
Home.

through eating and ready TO go, as
Mrs. Eastwood had the dishes and
my wife the baby, we asked Grand
ma to carry the bread, which was
wrapped up just as it came from OF
tens bakery where 1 bought it. Joe
and myself stayed in the park awhile
longer and when 1 went out to go
home | found my bread on my cart
and 1 took it home and ate it as
thought had perfect right TO do.
If Con. Null or anybody else says
that Grandma stole the bread it is a
base and malicious falsehood.

man who gives his name as Charles
Latham. He was apprehended at
Topeka and Sheriff Ausherman went
there Saturday and brought him
here. He was taken before Justice |
Morehouse on Monday, and, although |
I he value of the goods stolen was suf- |
ficient to constitute grand larceny, he
was permitted to plead guilty To
petit larceny and was fined 5000 and
costs, and sentenced to sixty days in
Jail. The chances are that this is not
his first offence, as the officers found |
more than twenty keys of all kinds
and sizes on his person when he was
arrested. He says he has father
but that he was reared i'm
Topeka, and an effort will be made to
get this latter person to pay his fine.
