We have heard ia the past much of billion dollar Congresses but the aggregate appropriations Of the War Congress lost adjourned reach Ia billion and half dollars. the greatest afo8snt ever appropriated by an American Congress. Reed s first billion dollar Congress evoked universal condemnation, but now we hear but little condemnation of the billion and a bali dollar Cong ress recently adjourned This Is due no doubt to the great patience and pride O. the American people This country has just concluded a successful war with Spain, and while it has proven very expensive, tbe agf7ry accomplished by the United States army acd navy is sufficient compensation for the ex- tra expense of the war. The fact stares the AmerIcao people fa the lace, however, that the National treasury ,s threatened with def. eff, aed thfs may cause financial complications in tae future or ne- cassitate the issuance of more bonds.

AN IMPORTANT DECISION
The Chief Justice Sustains an lm- p0rtant Arkansas Statute-Ihe
 Result of a Shit.

Washington; March 8.-Chief Jus tice Fuller rendered an opinion sus-
 taining the validity of the State law of Arkansas requiring railroad com panies operating in the State to pay employes when discharged and fix E ing a penalty for failure. The law allows the amount of wages for six
 ty days as such penalty. h the present case Charles Paul, 9 dis
 charged laborer# on the St Louis. Iron Mountain t Southern railway,
 brought shit for S2l, a part ofwhich
 was on account of penalty earned under the law. The railroad com
 pany resisted the sult ia tie state courts and in this court, on the ground that the law provided for
 taking property without due pro cess of law, and was therefore re- puguaat to the constitution. The supreme court Of the state declined
 to accept this view of the case and held the law to be valid. Chief Jus
 tice Fuller sustained the court. He
 said fbe state law applied to all
 alike and that therefore the equal i protection Of the law vas not de-  nind

ssEditor Adams, of the Pine Bluff Graphie, has something to say, and he is not one bit afraid to say il, ' says the Memphis Seimitar Lis ten:
 If is rumored in polieical circles that the Jefferson county ring has Gov. Jones by tho and that the aforesaid ring will dictate therl appointment for Chancellor. The f3raphfe does not believe it. Gov. Jones will certainly not stoen SO low as to become a mere tool In the hands of one of the most ,.onseieneeless and interruptions political rings that ever temporarily abused and dis vraeAa q county. Gov. Jones must have some consideration for his oiieei also the re xpouslble office of Chancellor he is to nH by annointment, and the Governor will certain Iv not foIst upon the people of this district an interruptions politician iR So important an office.
 But the Graphic proved a false prophet. It developed that the Governor Of the great State Of Ar kansas was an easy and wiling vic tin of the county ring He utterly set at naught the will and spetihons of the Pine Bluff bar and people, To Gov.

Manila, March 8.-Yesterday af- teraoon Gen. Hale's brigade con- tinued the work of driving out the rebels from the country between the reservoir and the water works, a distance of about three miles. The country is now clear on the left of the river, but the enemy is still in front Of Gen. Wheaton's line. Near San Pedro Macati tbey have been actively attempting to make the position of the Sixth artillery on the hills ubtenable, their sharp shooters keeping up a constant fire all day.
 Private LoYeioy, Washington volunteers, was killed by a stray bullet. Two others were wounded yesterday.
 Yesterday morning the enemy in front of Gen. Ovtrshine's line sent out a flag of truce, but retired when Lieutenant Koehler with two men advanced to meet 1t. h the after noon they again showed a white flag, and a general with two officers and an interpreter advanced. When the Americans were within 200 yards of the rebel party the latter drag ged rifles from behind their b1 l<~ and opened fire upon them, ba' ..r- tunately without effect.
