HOW it Was Done.

The sudden cessation OF hostilities by
she opponents of the bill WAS sur
prsa to the audience which had not
observed frequent conferences among
representative of the Southern Pa
efic and the Santa te and the
speaker and prominent members of
the house. 1t became subsequently
snders' God that Navajo county was
born of a compromise in favor OF the
appropriation bills, the single con.
dition Of which was that the prison
semoval bill should not he called up.
1t was now not quite 10 o'clock and
there was still two hours OF fighting
time. But the appropriation bill was
called and after short recess the house
began to consider it.
From the outset there was struggle
90 long continued that the legal day
passed and the house adjourned with
cut provision for carrying on the gov
eminent for the next two years.

Hou3a-Routine Work.

There was expectancy and a fair
sized audience when the house con-
vened at the unusually early hour OF
nine The great fight was expected
nomentarily to begin and the lobby
was somewhat surprised and disap-
pointed when the body began the pro-
Eaic order OF business of the second
reading OF bills.
An amendment extending the time
for which the board of control should
be authorized to contract for prison
labor for a period of twenty years in
etead of ten was offered TO council bill
No. rs. Il could be applied only by a
suspension of the rules and a motion to
uspend them called out an echo OF toe

Inclined" said Mr.. Gaddis, ITO bstruct
sny proposition of this kind until | am
assured that there will be no more such
discrimination as has been witnessed on
This floor in the last few days" The
amendment was. however, allowed.
Council bill No. 64, the prison re-
novai bill, the direFul spring OF un-
Numbered woes. was given a second
seading at this juncture.
0 h-r bills similarly disposed OF were
eonncll bill No. II, providing for publ
cation of the condition OF the terri
torial treasury and house bill 161

After Midnight.

The council remained in session until
after one O'Clock. The gu, s'ion of the
minutes was discussed. Councilman
: Davis took occasion to thoroughly roast
the Southern Pacific and hurled a
general accusation against the territory
OF groyeting under it's corrupt power.
Shortly before two O'Clock final mes
sage was received from the governor
and the council stood adjourned.
After the death of the mbly, the
clerks and pages gathered in the de-
serted chamber organized the third
house and proceeded to the trans
setion of unfinished business 1t was
done so vigorously that when the mimic
legislature passed away the hall looked
ss if it had been wrecked by cyclone.

The Slaughter of Bills.

If the house had been swift and in.
dustrious in the making of laws it had
not neglected to take recreation in a
reckless destruction of many pet meas
ures. The method most in vogue be-
cause it was like some kinds of rat ex
terminators, the quickest and surest,
was indefinite postponement. By this
sort of premature death there fell house
bill No. 1859, to repeal certain portions
of the revised statutes and the penal
code and thereby suppress gambling.
Many of the friends and foes of gambl-
ing stood shoulder to shoulder. The
former because they feared the bill
would STOP gambling and the latter be-
cause they feared it wouldn't. Other
indefinitely pos tponed measures were
house bill No. 149, In relation to the
collection of taxes on personal property !;
council bill No. 81, that cherished law
of the upper house, protecting the land
lord against the tenant house bill No.
139, for the protection OF workingmen
by practically abolishing the check
system.

Mr.. Hinton called up house bill No.
Ill, regulating the running of engines
and railroad trains, and which had
narrowly escaped indefinite postpone
ment, and it was passed by the sur
prising vete of ayes II, nays s.
House bill No. l5S, amending the
existing libel law, was pulled up and
there was brought up with it an
amendment which was later adopted.
The select committee having in
charge the bill for the relief of Joseph
Stein and others who were left holding
the bag when custodian of funds at
the territorial prison decamped five
years ago, favorably reported it and the
bill went over to third reading.

The end OF ex-Judge b. w. Lacy mas
come sooner than We expected. But
few days ago wc denied the report or MS
death, published In another paper, ana
expressed the hope that he would re-
cover and live long. But II was not 10
be. Heart-disease had a relentless noia
upon him. and no medical skill could
break It's grasp.
Judge Lacy was gallant soldier IN
the Confederate cavalry. and had served
as County Judge OF Charles City ana
New Kent, member and Speaker OF the
Virginia House Of Delegates. and as one Oh
tho Judges OF the Supreme Court OF Ap-
peals of this State. He left the Demo-
Gratis on the Readjuster issue. but after
the debt-question was gotten out OF poll
tics he rejoined his old political asso-
ciates. He was a man Of earnest con-
vIctions, was fearless in speech. and had
ability OF a htgh order. He was al
ways mentioned by lawyers as one OF the
ablest members Of the Supreme Court
which went out Of Office in January last.
Judge Lacy was widely known In Vir-
ginia, and We feel sure that the general
expression will be one OF sincere grief
at his death.

Recollection. of Won Borcke.

To the Editor of the Dispatch
l write to correct some errors in your
announcement of the death of Major He
ros Won Borcke.
|. You state that when Won Borcke
reported to General Stuart for duty the
latter was rather abrupt to him. but i'm
mediately ordered him under fire. telling
him to report at a certain point. where
the fighting was particularly hot" In
this YOU are mistaken. General Stuart
was, at all times and under all circum-
stances, civil and polite to all persons
who came in contact with him. / was
present and witnessed the first meeting
between Stuart and Won Borcke, on the
Williamsburg road, some six miles be-
low Richmond. just on the eve OF the bat
tie of Seven Pines. in 1852. Stuart re-
ceived Won BorcSe kindly, and he sub
sequently became attached 10 his staff,
but was never the chief of IL.
.. You state that Won Borcke visited
Richmond for the last time during the
Yorktown Centennial" Won Borcke was
not in this country the year mentioned.
but visited Richmond in 1854 and his old
comrades rendered him a splendid ban
quet at F'ords Hotel. Won Borcke was
brave. dashing soldier, and had many
friends in the cavalry corps of the Army
OF Northern Virginia. who regret to
hear OF his death.
Yours truly, r. r.. FRAISER.

A Eentnre of the strike.

From a statement that Governor OFer-
rail- makes. 1t appears that the West Nir-
ginia striking miners are being used to
pull the chestnuts out OF the fire, as il
were. for the operators In the Bluefeld
region OF that State. These operators
thus hope to compel the receivers of the
Norfolk and Western Railway Company
TO give them better freight-raies.
On the Virginia side of the mountain
the miners have no grievances at all
against their employers. They have
struck merely through sympathy with
the West Virginians. Some of them are
returning to work: but others, from con-
victions of duty TO their West Virginia
brethren, are standing Idly by, while their
places are being filled by newcomers.
There seems 10 be no doubt at all that.
should our troops be withdrawn, the
miners who are now at work would be
compelled 10 quit the mines. The West
Virginia miners 40 greatly out-number
the Virginia miners that the latter would
be At the mercy Of the former. IL Is quite
odd that they should have the
encouragement OF the operators: 1t is a
unique strike In this respect 1t would
seem. however that these West Virginia
operators have undertaken an arduous
task. ccurt-receivers are hard men 10
