Democrats Are Willing to Furnish

Needed, but Object to LegaIizins
the Formation of Standing
Army of 100000 Men without
Ample Time for Discussion.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 81. : Formal
discussion Of the Hull-Hawley army
reorganization bill was begun in the
senate this afternoon. Mr.. Hawley and
Mr. Warren, Republicans, supported
the measure, and Mr. Mitchell and Mr..
Cockrell, Democrats, opposed it, while
Mr. @1octor (Rep.) addressed the senate
in favor of some amendments which he
had proposed to the bill. All the
sneakers are members of the commit
tee on military affairs. Mr. Cockrells
speech. though brief, was particularly
notable as he spoke definitely for the
opposition to the army reorganization
bill He declared, practically, in 50
many words, that the -Hawley bill
could not become a law at this session.
He and those who stood with him were
willing to give the president all the
money and every man he desired, but
they were determined that no great
standing army should be fastened upon
the country without full and free dis
cIssion.
The postoffice appropriation bill was
passed today, Mr.. Butler On. c. and
Mr.. Pettigrew 6. ID having concluded
their speeches.
Soon after the senate convened Mr.
Pettigrew Is. d. presented resolutions
Of the legislature of South Dakota urg-
| ing senators Of that state to support
the treaty of peace Commenting upon
the resolutions, Mr.. Pettigrew said that
he denied the right of the legislature
to instruct him, although he was al
ways glad to hear from that body THE
present legislature of South Dakota -
said he, sis the third since I was elect
ed a senator the last time. In one a
resolution was passed indorsing the
free and unlimited coinage Of silver.
Both houses of the next legislature
passed similar resolution The pres
ent legislature is ia favor of the single
| gold standard If I should endeavor
I to follow the course of the legislature.
1 should be on every side of almost ev-
cry important question" He pointed
| out that the members of the present
| legislature were not members of sue
/ cessive iegisla lures, and he believed on
great national questions they were as
likely to be wrong as right. The con-
ference report on the legislative, execu-
tive and judicial appropriation bill was
/ agreed upon.
Mr.. Allison, chairman of the finance
committee, offered a house joint reso-
luton amending the act of June 13,
1898, by adding to it provision that
| whenever any bond or note should be
secured by a mortgage or deed of trust
but one stamp shall be required, that
being the highest rate required for
either paper. The bill was passed.
COLLISION CHARGED.
Mr.. Quay Rep., Pa.), chairman OF
the committee ON public buildings an6
grounds, presented a batch of repor;s
| favorable to the erection of public
buildings in various parts Of the coun-
try These reports brought Mr. Aller
/ (Neb.) to his feet with an inquiry as
to why certain bills which had beer
before the committee for a year OF
more had not been acted upon He
said:

PUGILIsT JOHN l.. SULLIVAN, erst-
while champion of champions, has
finally announced to Il waiting and
wondering world his views of the
Filipino question. Wen always

heathens, he says. Il hear they

white man they boil and eat him.
VIII America stand for that kind of
citizens? Not in thousand. This
Aguinaldo is nothing but fresh kid
and he's making a monkey of himself
and the rest of the Filipinos. The
only way to make peace in the islands
is to eXterminate the whole push. -

A REALISTIC ACT.
An Amusing Story of Jefferson rs
Rip Van Wrinkle.

While he was playing Rip Van
Wrinkle at Chicago jefferson once
went to the theater very much exhaust
ed by long days fishing on the lake.
AS the curtain rose on the third act it
disclosed the white haired Rip still deep
in his 20 years nap Five, 10, 20 min
utes passed and he did not awaken. The
audience began TO get impatient and
the prompter uneasy.
The great actor doubtless knew what
he was about, but this was carrying the
realistic business too far. The fact was
that all this time jefferson was really
sleeping the sleep of the just, or rather
of the fisherman who had sat eight
hours in the sun. Finally the gallery
became uproarious, and one of the
"gods" wanted to know if there was
going to be "19 years more of this
snooZe businessl"
At this point jefferson began to
snore. This decided the prompter, who
opened small trap beneath the stage
tagged comedian fumbled in his pocket
for an imaginary railway ticket and
muttered drowsily, Going right
through, 'ductor.''
at this entirely new reading the au-
dience was transfixed with amazement,
when all at once jefferson sat up with
loud shrek, evidently in agony. The
exasperated prompter had "jabbed"
him with a pin. Consciousness of the
situation came to him and the play
went on after that with a rush.-Phila-
delphia Post.

acted the most important piece of
legislation ever before it. 1t was
Il bill that all the mem bers be vacci-
mated. The bill was passed and the
law executed on the spot, each mem
her barring his brawny arm to the
lancet, and receiving his incubation

day a bill may be introduced that
