Senator Hill ON his Party.
A. M. MAIDS.

Senator Hill contributes an article
to the February Forum on thes Future
OF the Democratic Organization, in
which he reviews the suicidal course"
OF the party at Chicago, in which he
says passion, prejudice, selfshness,
sectionalism, and emotionalism seemed
to rule the hour, while many undemo-
cratic, crude, and unsafe provisions
were recklessly Incorporated in the
platform. Senator Hill refers. to
these unwise provisions as the income
tax; the attack on the Supreme Court:
legal tender paper money; reputation
and assault upon our national credit;
federal authority in States, and life
tenure in the public service. OF the
first proposition he says, sit was
urged by every political adventurer,
ignoramus and demagogue in the
country" and that it was ''a tax up
on thrift, industry and brains,' and
was sectional. That, in relation to
the reorganization of the Supreme
Court, he characterizes by saying, "a
more dangerous or revolutionary pro-
cedure was never before outlined by a
political party" The plank relative
to reputation, etc., he says, was
vicious, - utterly indefensible, 'and
that ''no loyal Democrat follower OF
Douglas, Mcclellan, Hancock and
Tilden- could conscientiously defend
such an Infamous and unfortunate
plank" Senator Hill in speaking Of
the hundreds of thousands of Demo
Gratis who voted the ticket because OF
regularity or expediency says, ''they
do not desire the experiment repeated,
and that 1.-THE Objectionable features
OF the platform must be abandoned. .
The Senator rejoices that their were
patriotic and level headed Democratic
leaders who remained true to the old
faith and did not surrender the old
Democratic ship or permit it to be
scuttled by irresponsible and fanatical
lone idea pirates. - In conclusion he
says, among other things, to insure
Democratic success there must be COM
plete separation from Populism, more
candor and less demagoguism.
On the whole the paper does not por-
tray rosy outlook for the Democra-
tic party as at present constituted. -

Proclamation Killed by
E the Senate.

: WAsH1NGToN, March 2.-Speake1
Reed and the other Republican leaders
of the house entered upon the final
session of the Fifty.fourth congress
with the avowed determination that
no legislation which compelled great
expenditures of public money should
be enacted during the session. They
felt compelled to adopt this policy be-
cause Of the condition of the treasury
and they have generally adhered to it,
although the regular appropriation
bills for the support of the government
have brought the total appropriations
of this congress far beyond the $1,000
900, 900 mark, breaking the record OF
former congresses. Many of the ap.
preparations were necessary to continue
works authorized by other congresses.
No public buildings have been started
by this congress and no new battleships
or vessels Of any description, although
the creation of navy begun several
years ago, has been by no means aban-
doned
Passed Many Private Pension Bills.
One feature of the sessions record
worthy of note is the great number of
private pension bills passed, many of
them placing the widows of officers on
the pension rolls at ratings ranging
from $50 to $75 a month. Several of
the pension bills were vetoed by Presi-
dent Cleveland, but congress enacted
some of these despite the veto.
Several important bills are in the
hands of the president, awaiting his
action, foremost among them the i'm.
migration bill which establishes an
educational test for immigrants and
bars out laborers who maintain their
homes in other countries.
Necessarily the policy of the house
to avoid new legislation which in
volved expenditures has been enforced
upon the senate. The Nicaragua canal
bill which was discussed at great
length in the senate, but not voted
on, was not taken up in the house, nor
was the free home bill which the sen.
ate passed.

NOT YET NOTIFIED.

Greeks and Turks Will Soon Be Warned,
However.
LONDON, March at is stated here
that there is good authority for believ.
ing that the result of the conferences
between the representatives Of the
great powers at Constantinople and
Athens will be the presentation of COL
lective notes to Turkey and Greece
within "a hours.
Greece will be allowed four days to
recall her land and sea forces from
Crete. 1t is reported from Canea that
several insurgent leaders have sent to
Vice Admiral Canevaro of the Italian
feet a signed declaration that the Gre.
tans will accept no solution of the
pending question, but political union
with Greece.
Fighting continues between the in
surgents and Mussulmans near Retimo
and elsewhere The Christians be-.
sieged the Turkish garrisons in the
blockhouse at Malata for several days.
Sunday body of Turkish regulars and
irregulars left Canea with a convoy to
revictual the blockhouse. The insur-
gents attacked the column and killed
several of the escort, whereupon the
Turkish battleship Fuad opened fire
upon the insurgents with shells and
continued the firing until stopped by
order of the foreign admirals. The
convoy was finally compelled to retire.
Continued Fighting Around Canea.
The latest advices from Canea report
that fighting betw cen the besieged gar
rison and the Cretans continues. - The
villages of Trikalaria and Nerokouro,
in the same district, have been, it is re.
ported, burned by the Bashibazouks.
Fighting continues also outside Can
dia The Christians have repulsed the
Turks. 49,.
Dispatches from Athens state that a
number of Cretan deputies, headed by
the bishop of Retimo, have presented
King George with a memorial which
states in effect that autonomy, instead
of pacifying the island, will
only pave the way for anoth-
er revolution later on, and still
further endanger the peace of Europe !;
and that, therefore, the Cretans are
resolved to continue the struggle until
political union with Greece, there long
cherished hope, is realized.
1t is reported that 800 more volun-
teers have evaded the blockade es-
tablished by the powers and landed
safely on the southeast coast of Crete.

SENATE MET SUNDAY,

Spent the Sabbath Discussing the Snndry
Civil Bill.
WASHINGTON, March 2.-The usual
Sunday quiet of the capitol building
was disturbed by session of the sen.
ate made necessary to pass appropria-
ton bills. Large crowds filled the gal
leries and overfowed to the corridors.
The attendance of senators was even
greater than that through the week,
the absentees, other than those out of
town or sick, numbering only IL. The
sundry civil appropriation bill was un.
der consideration, number of impor-
tant items, the payment of sugar
bounties, for rivers, harbors, etc., re-
naming to be passed upon. A vote on
the sugar bounty amendment was tax
en- as soon as the session opened and it
was. agreed to, 81 to 10. The amend
ment appropriates $1,OS5, l56 for the
balance of bounties earned from Au-
gust, 1894, to June, 1895. The river
and harbor items were next considered,
most of the committee amendments be-
ing agreed to as reported.
That Forest Reserve Order.
An extended debate occurred on an
amendment offered by Mr.. Clark of
Wyoming designed to counterfeit the
presidents recent order withdrawing
II, 100000 acres of land from the pub.
lie domain, and creating forest reser-
vations. Mr. Clark criticised the pres
ident's order as arbitrary, saying the
people of the states affected had not
been consulted. 1t was, he said, the
most serious blow aimed at the Western
country since the present congress
came into existence. 4a.ar
Mr.. Carter of Montana, who was COM
missioner of the land Office at the time
an inquiry into forest reserves was be-
gun, also criticised the presidents Or
der as hasty and in total disregard to
vast interests. Towns, villages, mills
and mines had been lndiscriminately
included within these forest reserves.
Senators Pettigrew, Wilson, Dubois
and Mantle also spoke in criticism, and
the amendment was unanimously
adopted.
