At the time brother Winterton

the people turned out enmass

the better we liked them and the

them administer the sacrament of

or probably better kaown as 'Wild Bill"
eon OF Mrs. Henry Atkin by her frst hus-
band, was up for trial for cutting gaah
In Brigham Presorey's arm. before Judge
Francis L. Daggett. Justice OF The Peace
The trouble grew out of betting over
horse racing, but Williams claimed that
he did not mean to cut Presbrey, but the
evidence given caused the Judge to rem
der the verdict of guilty against Williams
aud sentenced him to 45 days IN the County
jail.
1t was admitted that they had had
some wine during the day, but whether
they were under it's influence st the time
of the trouble we are not certain, yet one
thing we are certain of and that 10 that we
consider the vendors OF wine, especially
without license, culpahle before the
law, for the Ordinance reads: "Sec. 141. .

ter, deal out or otherwise dispose of any

Washington, May 30.-The senate re-

a final vote on the bill to prohibit the
issue Of bonds on Tuesday next before
adjournment. Mr.. Hin reserving the
right to move to postpone the vote
Mr.. Butler pop. N. G., author OF the
bill to prohibit the issue of bonds, in a
speech, declared the gold element was
about to execute a skillful stroke of poll
tics in allowing the Chicago convention
to be controlled by silver in order to
weigh down the cause with the evils Of
the Democratic party. which had be-
come a stencil in the nostrils Of the
American people" He appealed to sill
yer men not to be deceived by this piece
Of politics
In answer to query from Mr. Gear
Of Iowa, as to what methods outside Of
the ballot could be adopted to correct
financial legislation, Mr.. Butler de-
clared that the time might come when
an outraged people might swing some
man from a limb The senator said he
had seen men swing to limb who We're
less infamous than those who particle
pated in those financial crimes. Mr.
Butler presented a letter written by Mr..
Gear in 1890 favoring free silver, which
brought out an explanation from the
Iowa senator that investigation of the
subject had led him to change his mind

Washington, May 8O.-The house
spent almost the entire day debating
the Johnston Stokes contested election
case from the Seventh South Carolina
district. The Republicans were badly
divided. Those who favored seating
the contestant, Johnston, who ran on
a Populist- Republican ticket, finding
themselves slightly in the minority
when the vote began, fnaugurated a
flibuster which lasted until the con-
ference report on the naval bill came
to rescue and the house recessed before
final action was taken. Johnston
partisans were outvOted, 105 to 50 and
1O3 to g. the first vote being on the
minority resolution declaring Johnston
entitled to seat the second on the
majority resolution declaring him not
entitled to it.
An effort viii be made to reconsider
on Monday, and if that fails to unseat
Stokes and declare the seat vacant.

ton to pass the bin over the veto
