Neither legislature passed one

said of Idaho and Washington.
may also be said of Utah, Colorado
and Kansas. The Populist element
in the Oregon legislature was strong
enough to block all efforts to do
business. The common people will
soon believe that populism is Of no
account.
For a long time past, it has been
the rule with the would be tough
boys and young men Of the valley,
to get loaded up with whlskey and

Bitter creek and shoot off their re-
volvers. We referred to this habit
in giving an account OF the free
dance rendered by the women suf-
fragists, Jan. 7th, stating that some
body would hear something drop
if not stopped, Last week a par
ty of young men from the wilds of
Cassia county, around Albion, came
to the valley, got to much ditch
water mixed with their other drinks
and began shooting. Complaint
was filed against the party with
Justice Connor and the offender
fined. The Justice stating, in as
sessing the fine, THAT the accused
was stranger he would be as light
as possible, but the next case of
the kind brought before him he
would give them all the law allowed.

Senator Wolcott has returned
from Europe and gives a report OF
the impressions gained by him
while abroad on the subject of an
international agreement that is
highly encouraging to all friends
of bimetallism. The senator says:
can international agreement for
the reconciliation of silver is en-
tirely feasible. 1 am led to this
conclusion by the feeling which 1
have found abroad, and where the
belief in silver is stronger than
had anticipated, but, in my opinion
its accomplishment rests large
ly with the United States. The
course that we propose to pursue
in the next four years will have
a great effect upon the feeling of
the European nations. Most of
them are entirely willing to take
part in monetary conference, but
they do not want a repetition of |
the affair at Brussels. At that |
time the delegates from the United
States were so divided among them
selves that they could never be
brought to act as unit. This
must be different in any future con

lists, and from them learned the

veil as the government officials.
from what they told me, I was
,reatly encouraged, and am ex-
remedy hopeful Tor the future.

At present he is exceedingly weak, not

Since Saturday,, the streets in the

been ropcd off to prevent the noise of
passing teams annoying the sick one,
as he is very nervous about such things.
His family were q little more hopeful
yesterday and his numerous friends all

only once Il yoar and in tho spring,
when fish SO like to bite, ho docs not
bore mo worry badly, and I hopo tho
ronder will bo as kind as I, and hear
him patiently;
Green truck is in the garden, and
young chickens on the way;
Eggs are just a-wasting and there's ham
for every day;
The cattle is a-futtcning and the milk
is pouring down,
And there's been enough Of honey to
take Il lot to town.
There is beans in the bunch and beans
on the pole,
And we'll have them hot for dinner and
ut supper take them cold;

News and Courier

Columbia, May lit was stateG
in this correspondence this morning
that there was rumor here that the
State had lost the, Agricultural Hal
case, which is ono of the most i'm.
portant suits in which the State h as
been engaged. Tho Washington
dispatches, howovor, said absolutely
nothing about tho decision, and Sc
no moro was known about the mat
tor until tonight, when the news
reached. here that tho State had lost
tho Agricultural Hall case. Ever
since tho case was originally decided
in Charleston by 4 jury against tho
State, tho case was regarded by tho
State Administration as lame con-
test, and tho Stato's counsel seemed
ttosbo fighting for timo, and an odd
chance. An appeal was taken to the
Court Of Appeals, and then to the
United Statos Court, and in 'overy
instance the State has lost
Tho litigation was over the pos
session of the Agricultural Hall
which Mr.. Alexander bought at pub
lie sale, and for which Mr.. w. II.
Lyles, rs counsel for Il. B. Wesley,
made ono payment, and then offered
"Blue Ridge bonds" for further pay
mont. Tho bonds wcro refused, and
tho State seized the building but the
Courts have hold that Mr.. Wesley is
entitled to the possession of the
building.
WHAT MIR. BARBER SAYS.
Attorney General Barber was scon
about tho case this evening, and said
that the State had lost, from what
ho understood of the decision, the
Agricultural Hall, but the decision
dld not involve tho legality of the
Bluo Ridge bonds, which it was
sought to establish.
Not only docs tho State lose tho
possession Of tho building, but it
will have TO pay Mr.. Wesley prct-
ty big rental for tho building, which
has been used as tho chief dispcn-
sary. 1t was stated to-day that rent
could only be collected for eightocn
months, which is tho timo the judg-
ment Of tho Court has boon on record.
In addition to this, if the State
vacates tho building, it will lose con
siderable in tho way Of permanent
improvements it had put in the
buildings for tho running of the
grog business.
GOVERNOR ELLERBE WILL NOT TALK.
Governor Ellorbo, whom asked
about tho decision to night, said that
no did not caro- to havo anything to
say about tho matter, or what the
State would do as to tho domicile OF
tho dispcnsary. 1t will bo romom
