not entitled TO any bounty. 1t was

ingly made an. appropriation of one
hundred dollars TO be paid to tho
soldiers who enlisted from Preston
county IN the first and seconb calls.
How many old seldiers received their
one hundred dollars bounty, who Went
out under the first call? We doubt
there being one. The writer of tins
article nevsr received one cent. A
few received about sixteen dollars
The question that is agitating the

that some person hps applied IL TO his

We had a dream some time ago and
in that dream secret was revealed TO
MS that during the rebellion. while the
boys were out iighting for the pres
eryation OF the Union, certain man
was riding over Preston county with
his saddle bags well filed with this
bounty money. telling the soldiers
wives that hc had little money and
would give them certain price for
their claim of enc hundred dollArs on
the county, on one of his return trips.
Comrades, this is the way ne have
been treated by some OF the high
officials OF the county, during the dark
days OF tho rebellion. We do not be-
lieve there is IN officer in the county
today that would tolerate such n
thing, bat on the otherhand would
aid in bringing about Justice to the
old veterans, but suppose that some
OF us old soldiers in our declining

House Democrats Adopt ResolutioBs De-
fining Their Position ON Expansion.
!: WASHINGTON, Feb. 28.-At a caucus
Of the Democratic members of the
house of representatives the following
declaration of policy and resolutions as
to the Philippines were adopted:
eve hold that the constitution of the
United States, ordained and established
for an intelligent, .liberty-loving and
self-governing people, cannot be sucr
cessfully applied to people of different
natures and conditions. We therefore
hold that a colonial policy is contrary to
the theory of our government and sub
versive of those principles of civil lib
erty which we have been taught to
cherish. We believe with the Declara-
ton Of Independence that all govern
ments derive their just powers from the
Consent of the Governed
and we are unalterably opposed to the
establishment of any government by the
United States without the consent of
the people to be governed and in con
formity with these principles we in
struct the minority members of the
foreign affairs committee to introduce
and urge the following resolution:
"'Resolved, That the United States
hereby disclalm any disposition or in
tention to exercise permanent sover-
eighty, jurisdiction or control over the
Philippine islands and assert their de-
termination when an independent gov
ernment shall have been erected therein
to transfer to said government, upon
terms which shall be reasonable and
just, all rights secured under the ces-
sion of Spain and thereupon to leave the
government and control Of the ISLANDS
to their people,"
a resolution was also adopted COM
mending the loyalty and valor of our
soldiers and sailors.
The attendance was large and little
division Of sentiment was manifested Oh
the general features Of the resolutions.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 27.-An eventful
period in the countrv's history is COW
cred by the work of the Fifty-frst con-
gress, which, is drawing to a close. It
has been q period Of stirring and dra-
matte action. with questions Of vast
magnitude constantly engaging atten
ton. forming and epoch alongside those
other American cpochs, the Revolution
and the Civil war. This congress has
declared war against . foreign foe, and
the treaty -nla2Iiny branch has partici-
pated i'll ratifying the treaty by which
that war was terminated. It has pro-
vided a great volunteer army, has en-
larged the regular army. and has ex-
panded the navy to meet
War Emergencies and New Conditions.
The tariff has been revised. first by
the Dingley law and then by the war
revenue act; a bond issue known as the
war loan, has been provided. But far
reaching as these war measures are, the
congress has had time also to enact
other Legislation which under other cir
cumstances would make. its session
memorable. This includes the annexa
ton of Hawaii. therejection by the SEN
ate of the general treaty OF arbitration
with Great Britain, the enactnl ent of IL
national bankruptcy law, and reorgan-
ization of the personnel of the navy. To
this list may yet be added other
Important Subjects Still Pending,
including the Nicaragua canal, the in
crease of the regular army, the anti
scalping measure, the Hawaiian bill,
and the proposed encouragement OF
American shipping. Some Of the
most important general measures are in
the final Legislative stages, and it will
not be until the last hours arrive that
the success or failure Of these measures
will be determined definitely,
Based on estimates the total appropri-
ations for the congress would be ap-
pro2imately $1,000, 0on. 900, Of which
amount approximately 5000, 900, COG
