The mayors of the third and fourth
class cities of the state are in excellent

they at least think they are. and so are
happy. They met in the Commercial
Club rooms just before noon to-day and

election, allowing cities of these classes
to vote on indebtedness upon them
selves for the building of sewers. water
works, electric light. etc, amounting to
cents on the dollar valuation yearly,
for interest and sinking fund. this to be

THE NATIONAL LEGISLATURE
MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE ANXIOUS TO
GET IN LOCAL BILLS.
Orrithological Comparisons Brought Out
in the Course of Debate, Members
Being characterized as "yul-
lures" and "Rayens"-Sen-
atc Proceedings.

Washington. Feb. 12-Members as
sembled before the speakers desk in
the house to-day to secure considera ton
of the many local measures which are
being endangered by the near approach
of the close of the session. Among the
bills and resolutions passed were those
returning war flags to certain Michigan
regiments; donating condemned cannon
to Des Moines, Ia; Incorporating the
National Association of Florists.
Senate bill granting public lands in
Mississippi to aid the mechanical and
agricultural schools of the state and
house bill authorizing the restoration to
the public domain of certain reserva-
tions in Mississippi and Alabama now
held by the navy department for naval
purposes.
While the house was proceeding with
routine business there was Il round of
applause from the Republican side and
then from the whole house as Mr.. Will
son, of Washington, long popular and
witty member of the house, and recently
elevated TO the senate, came on the
floor. He was surrounded by his old as
sociates and the house business was
temporarily suspended by the hearth
ness of the reception accorded him.
The house then resumed consideration
of the legislative, judicial and executive
appropriation bill. Mr.. Plckler Rep., S.
d. offered substitute for the provision
of the bill relating to the working force
of the pension Office. The substitute pro-
posed the same force of officers and
clerks as at present instead of the re-
duced force reported by the appropria-
tion. 1t was defeated.
When the bill was reported back to
the house the contest was resumed
against the provision for annual clerks
to congress. Mr.. Dockery pointed out
that the annual clerks would cost $780,
600 before the next congress actually
assembled.
The intensity of feeling aroused by
the struggle brought out many humor-
Gus incidents, Mr.. De Almond ODem.,
MOI criticised congressional vutures.
Mr. Bartlett resented the imputation
and declared that Mr.. DE Almond was
not vuture, but a raven, continually
croaking 'nevermore." Mr.. Bartlett said
his fight in behalf of clerks involved
nothing personal to himself, as he was
serving in congress at a loss of his
New York law practice, worth s25, 900
annually.
a yea and nay vote was then taken on
the amendment for the annual clerks
and 1t was defeated-yeas, 9S; nays, l42,
Most of the Republicans voted for the
clerks and the Democrats against.
The Legislative appropriation bill was
then passed without division and the
house, at 4.25 p. M, adjourned.
