occupied the attention Of the Senate
in a brief session. The resolution Of
fered by Mr.. Pettigrew. Of South Da-
kota, calling upon the President for
information regarding the treaty en-
tered upon with the Sultan OF Sulu was
passed after Mr. Pettigrew had made
an attack upon the administration for
entering into an agreement which. he
said, authorized slavery. An extended
debate was precipitated by a confer
ence report on the census administra-
tive bill, but the census committee
gained it's point and the measure was
sent back to conference. Mr.. Allen NJ
fered a resolution calling upon the
Secretary Of War for all information
and correspondence relating to the ad-
ministration of customs affairs in Pu-
erto Rico, Cuha and the Philippines
siuce the war with Spain. Objection
being made it went over.

sion Of the race question mainly occa-
pied the Senate. IN accordance with
previous notice, Mr.. Money, of Missis5-
iSsippi, spoke in reply to the recent
speech of Mr. PritcAard, Of North Car
olina, on the proposed amendment 20

There was a spirited colloquy between
Mr. Money and Mr.. Chandler, Of New
Hampshire.
Mr. Cockrell. Of Missouri. from the
military affairs committee, reported

luton regarding the Occur D'A!ene

and revenues in the islands Of Cuba.
Puerto Rice, and the Philippines was
passed with a slight modification.
The urgent deficiency bill was then
called up Mr. Hale. Of Maine, in re-
sponse to inquiries from Mr.. PettigreT
said the bill carried about S9,00O,CC0;
that it contained no provision for the
payment of the rental OF the old GUS
| tom house in New York. He could not
say, however. how much was devoted
to the Philippine war.
The Senate adjourned until Monday.
Thirty-third Day.-The Senate COM
mittee ON Porto Rico decided, so far
as 1t can decide, that the island whose
affairs it has under its particular care,
shall be known as Porto Rico. as fix

island and the decision upon the spell
| ing Of the name was unanimous.

The naming of postoffices after mil
itary heroes has been fad since the
outbreak of the Spanish war, and is
now beginning to die out; but after
Deweys, Roosevelts, Schleys and
Skaters had dotted the Union, flip
pant Texas town with IN admiration
for the Rough Riders turned up q
short time ago with request that its
postoffice he named "Peddy," which,
after due deliberation, was done. On
the same day postofice in Georgia
varied the usual procedure of securing
the names of the great and good by
naming itself Quilp. The fiippancy
with which some towns brand them
selves with opprobrious names is il
lustrated by Twobit, S. d. The town
is probably worth more than that.
Some of the names, however, eviuce
lively and poetic fancy, as Blue Ash,
Ohio; Bonny Doom, Cal, and Gallant
Green, Md.

1t will be good day for the country
when there grows up an assumption
that the politician is naturally high
minded, though conditions may at
times cause him to act questlonably,
and that, freed from those conditions,
his natural moral resiliency will cause
him to soar, observes the New York
Commercial Advertiser. Under a
high moral public sentiment it is
easier for men to be good than to be
bad. In private life many man leaves
certain things undone, while commit
ting other greater sins because some
are what gentleman would not do,
and the others the sin of the gentle
man. Thus any advance in public or
political standard is hailed as bene-
fit, no matter what its immediate mo-
tive,

Ksv.tope Democrats For Bryan.

The State Democratic Committee set the
pace tor the Democracy OF other States by
making Colonel William J. Bryan its choice
for the Presidency in 1900. This action was
taken by the committee while Colonel
BRYAN was on his way to Harrisburg from
New York City to attend the meeting and
confer with the party leaders. This Is said
to be the llrst time in the party's history
that the Democrats OF Pennsylvania have
indicated their choice for President in ad-
vance OF the State Convention.

Fortunately for the industrious,
that portion of humanity is relative
ly small that goes to Jail during the
winter months on charge of vagrancy
because assured of comfortable lodg-
ing and plenty to eat. Small as IS
this element, the burden to the COM
munity at large OF these LATEST OF
drones amounts annually to thousands
of dollars. The main trouble appears
to be that jails have become so COM
Portable as actually to invite the shift
less and idle to become residents
therein when the inclement season
begins. A Western Judge has adopt
ed the plan of sending professional
tramps and vagrants to Jail for fifteen
days with rigid bread and water
diet. 1t is said that within week
they beg to get out, promising never
to return to the city again, and that
the Jail, instead of being filed to
overfowing, has very few inmates. If
this practice were followed with strict
impartiaii;y in each city, an army of
able bodied and lazy men might feel
that they had 4 call to do something
eIse thar live off the industrious.

Vancouver Wants a Government

The dominion parliament at the present
time is being strongly urged 10 feuuce
the royalty on the gold output OF the
Canadian Yukon. and also 10 estaphsh
government assay Offices at vancouver
The former request. it is said by Hon
Royce c. Hunt. assistant in the lahu
commissioners office at Ottawa. Canada
who arrived in the city yesterday, Will IN
all probability be done at the coming ses-
sion OF parliament. and the latter VIII
be considered
Mr.. Hunt came in on the Northern Pa
cifc overland from Yellowstone national
park. and will today go to vancouver
b. c. He is on vacation tour. but while
in British Columbia, viii look into some
matters for his government
THE present royalty law, as applied
to the Klondike gold output is not look
ed upon with favor by the Canadian gov
eminent. The district has outbrown the
necessity for it. and II is very probable
and In fact I might say almost certain
that another year will see II reduced 10
nothing more than a tax sufficient 10
nav the government expense in the dis
trict.
AT the time the royalty law was ap-
piled to the Klondike. the country was
new Thousands OF people were rushing
in and IL was necessary to send out ana
maintain large field force 10 preserve
u
needs of the country, as well as 10 es-
tablfsh a government in a far-away ana
desolate country This required an
enormous outlay, and for the purpose OF
meeting this expense the law was passed.
within the past year the conditions
have been such that the field force has
been unnecessary and has been with
drawn The large floating population has
dispersed and the Rlondike Is sufficiently
developed to in n great measure pay its
own government expenses. In view OF
this fact, the government Is willing TO
practically do away with the royalty and
operate its gold districts much after the
plan American mining districts are con-
Quoted
There is no doubt but that the royalty
law has retarded and kept down the out
put of the Klondke. Many owners, for
two years past. have not been working
their claims to their capacity on that
account and clinging to the hope that
sooner or later the royalty would be taken
on 1t Is more than probable that next
year a very small per cent. only viii
be charged.
This change. when made. will apply
TO the Atlin district as we'll as to the
Klondike.
There Is a great deal of agitation IN
Vancouver at this time regarding a gov
eminent assay office TO divert the ship
ments Of Canadian gold from Seattle.
The question will he brought up at the
next session and win at least be dis
cussed. but what the outcome will he
cannot be told. There are many other
things to he done first between Vancou-
