Rep Showalter has recommended
Geo. H Gibson to be 2. NJ. for Eau
Claire.
The bill for the construction OF the
Nicaragua canal bill passed the House
few days ago by the overwhelming
vote of 225 to 3j. This bill authorizes
the President to secure from Nicaragua
and Costa Rica the right Of way for a
canal from point near Greytown, on
the Caribbean sea, by way OF Lake
Nicaragua to Breto, on the Pacific
ocean, the construction to be in charge
OF the Secretary Of War, and directs
that harbors be constructed at the
ter1nini of the canal, with such pro-
visions as may be required for the safe
ty and protection Of the canal and these
harbors Ten million dollars is appro-
priated to begin the work, together
with such sum as may be necessary TO
secure control of the right of way, and
the Secretary of War is authorized TO
make contracts for the completion OF
the canal, the total sum not to exceed
$40, 900.
In the House, last Thursday. the
veteran Pennsylvania Congressman,
Galusha A. Grow, was accorded most
signal evidence of the honor and esteem
in which he il held by the House, ire
spectiye Of its political divisions, when
by unanimous vote he was given leave
to print in the Congressional Record,
in connection with his remarks on the
free homestead bill then under discus
sion, his maiden speech in Congress de-
livered on tine same subject, March 30.
1852. The request was made by Dele
gate Dennis Flynn, of Oklahoma, who
called on the House to again lay before
the country speech made '4S years
ago, before half of the members Of this
House were born. Mr.. Grow was
much affected by the action of his fell
low members His speech was short.
but delivered all his old time force
and yigor. He prefaced it by saying
that the discussion "awakens the echoes
that start when memory plays an old
tune on the heart"
The bill passed last Thursday opens
all the lands acquired by treaty from
the Indians since 1890 to settlement
under the provisions Of the original
homestead law just the same as are the
lands acquired prior to 1890, whether
from Indian tribes or by purchase OF
treaty from foreign nations.

The transfer Of the State Treasury
MANAGEMENT from James 5. Beacon OF
Westmoreland to Col. James Il. Bar
nett of Washington county, occupied
only a few minutes of last Monday.
They went over the securities OF the
Commonwealth together, and each sat
isfied the other that everything was all
right. Col Barnett announced the re-
appointment OF 7. Stewart Pearce, of
Salisbury, Indiana county, as cashier
and then the business Of the depart
ment went on as usual. There viii be
no changes in the clerical force, at least
for the presant.
The change in the head of the depa rt-
ment develops the fact that the Com
monwealth has never before been IN
such fine shape financially. AT noon,
when the transfer was made, the bal
ance in the general fund was $3, s4s, :
914.55, and in the sinking fund the bal
ance il 81, 156, S55.SS. The net debt Of
the Commonwealth is not much over
$500, 900. The sinking fund consists Of
United States bonds, Allegheny Valley
Railroad bonds and cash, and under the
act Of 1897 the 76 banks in which the
cash of the sinking fund is deposited
pay per cent interest. Under the
operation of the sinking fund law there
is transferred from the general TO the
sinking fund $780, 900 every year and
bonds Of the Allegheny Valley Railroad

The Congressional Conference for this
District will be held in the Court House
at Beaver, Pa, on Thursday. May 18th.
A reported settlement of Butler post
Office matter has lately been publishe d,
but the matter is not yet settled; and II
is not likely that it will until after the
Congressional Conference, at Beaver
next Thursday.
A special to the Dispatch from Har-
risburg, dated Monday. says: There
is likely to a rounding-up OF the State
administration leaders this week before
Governor Stone leaves Thursday on
trout-fishing trip. So far as the Quay
leaders are concerned they profess TO
see no signs of serious trouble IN the
campaign this year. They have read
the statements of their adyersaries, the
.ever-vigilant insurgents, but these
claims and figures do not impress them
seriously.
They regard the figures as misleading
and declare that the insurgents are too
general I'm their estimates; that the
figures which they have carefully com
piled are not susceptible of critical
ANALYSIS in the light of the facts. To
this charge the insurgent leaders come
back with the statement that the Quay
managers are afraid to make any esti-
mate since the State Convention.
