allot to the minority in the Senate.
They suspected some time ago that
the Republicans had made deal with

Populists all get chairmanships, either
of a standing or select committee,
while the Democrats with member

RESTORATION OF FORT SUMPTER.-
One good effect of the war-scare will
be the repair and rehabilitation OF
that historic fortress that played such
prominent part at the beginning OF
the civil war, old Fort Sumpter, at
the entrance of Charleston harbor.
The walls are in excellent order but
the interior shows the ravages of time,
but can be placed in good repair
with the $751; 900 available for fortifica-
ton in Charleston harbor. 1t will, of
course, be equipped with the latest
improved heavy guns. Gen. Miles,
who lately visited the South, is heart
lily in favor OF restoration of the
fortress.
