IN THE HOUSE.

Mr.. MOHEY Of Lewiston: AT this
time desire to introduce the following
resolve:
Resolved. That the members of this
House extend at this time their thanks
to the speaker and their appreciation
of the just. able and impartial name. {.
in which he has presided over the de =
alterations at this session. (Applause)
MANLEY OF AUGUSTA.
Mr.. Clerk and Gentlemen: The time
has come for this session TO close. 4
little less than three months ago we
met as comparative strangers. We
part as friends. We can all with truth
ieclarc.---there has been no luminosity
of debate, no angry words uttered. no
intense feeling aroused no prejudice
excited For once. at least. members
of the two great political parties who
contend at the proper time for the
control of government. have acted
upon this floor in perfect harmony.
BY no vote given or word uttered could
we know that there was any party diff
ference: and this is a high tribute TO
the members of this House. We have
all risen above party, and every men,
Der has acted as his judgment dictated
for the best interests of our State.
1t is a wise provision of nature tina
we all view every question from orr
own standpoint, as it is the natur al
order for mankind to be upon friencly
terms with one another. II we are all
engaged in common purpose to up
hold the welfare, credit and honor of
our State, it can but tend to increase
the world respect and admiration En-
erson SO beautifully expresses it when
he says: I'VE have great deal more
kindness than is ever spoken" and we
all know that 1.-The only way to have a
friend is to be one" and that life is
no life without friends"
Five years ago Du Maurier wrote
..Trilby." which had a marvellous sale.
1t was read by millions in every Sec
ton of the world. Its strength. its
power. it's beauty lay in the true pic
ture of friendship which it graphically
described. Its characters were all hui
man. They were not saints. The'y
were afflicted with the weaknesses iof
mankind: but the strength of friend
ship between Taffy. The Laird, and
Little Billee was told with so much
truth, patllos and power that 1t will
ever be fresh in the minds of those VINO
delight to read the English language.
Our speaker is entitled to our tina nks.
to our praise. to the warm regard OF
our friendship. He has presided over
the deliberations of this body with
absolute fidelity, with great courtesy
always affable and considerable. He
has won our profound esteem; and We
all extend to him the wish that the re-
mainder of his life may be as bright.
as successful. and as happy as he has
been felicitious and just in discharging
his duties as speaker of this body.
Let me add my heartfelt wishes that
life may bring to you. one and all.
every blessing. and let me close as Du
Maurier closed his beautiful story of
Trilby.

MIR. sMIrH OF PREsQUE ISLE.

Mr.. Clerk: An enforced vacation OF
the last ten days has about taken out
of me what life and energy I had. and
vet I feel that I cannot permit this
session of the Legislature to close
without attempting to make few re-
marks.
do not believe that the Legislature
Of Maine ever had a speaker who has
tried harder. to discharge his duties
faithfully and to be more impartial
than the present speaker. l say he has
tried, and / believe he has succeeded
to the satisfaction Of every member Of
this House.
1t is with mingled feelings of sorrow
and gladness that i Witness the final
close of this session, sorrow because 1
must soon part from the many pleas
ant acquaintance l have made during
this session. so many of which have al
ready ripened into warm friendships

garding the presiding officer of the

Colonel StetsOn. SO peculiar and so
delicate that it would not be in good

at no time during the many years dur

true gentleman; and during the years
and the months which have passed
there has arisen between him and my
self. trust, a peculiarly tender feeling
of friendship and regard which I
know-I speak advisedly-the expert
ence of these Il weeks has made more
enduring.
To you, Mr.. Speaker. I tender my
heartfelt thanks for the courtesies l
have received, not only during the u
weeks now drawing to a close. but
during the months and the years Of
our mutual acquaintance and friend

YOU is that your life may be long. and
that you may be surrounded by all the
lows and the blessings which come to

entitled to them. (Applause.)

The tangled forests of darkest Africa

supplied the southern planter with
slaves to cultivate his cotton fields and
to gather his crops, have again been

Prof. Garner of Washington, discov-
cred that the monkey can pick cotton
as we'll as the southern negro. he
persuaded Mr.. w. w. Mapgum of
Vicksburg to attempt the experiment,
and the latter has just made his report
to Prof. Garner.
Mr. Mangum says he has found it
profitable. On his place near Smedes
this winter he has so trained monkeys
at work. ----'-a-
The males weigh about ITO pounds
and the females average 80 pounds
each monkey that would hold 25
pounds of cotton and the bag placed
over each monkeys shoulder. 1t was
surprising, Mr.. Mangum says, how the
monkeys learned to pick cotton.
Baskets to hold the cotton were placed
at each end of the rows
and one man besides the mon
keys trainer, was necessary
to take the cotton out of the bags and
put it into the baskets provided. Cot
ton planters throughout the south
have watched the experiment with
great deal of interest. Many have Wis
tied the plantation near Smedes to see
the monkeys at their work.
Mr.. Mangum is enthusiastic over the

the United States.
These exhibits will be collected in
Cuba, Porto Rico, Hawaii and the

these colonies with entire villages will
be brought over and doubtless the ex
position will attract hundreds of thou
