Fortlneations BIn Passed and Progress

FortIacations Bill Passed and Progress
Made on Post once.
Washington, January Bl.-The House
today rasfed the fortincatIens bill and
made fair progress with the postoffice ap-
proprIation bill, During the general de-
hate upon the former Dill. MIR. Lanham
of Texas, delivered a notable speech on
the future of the Democratic party In
which he made q strong plea for the
necessity of united Democracy. Many
amendments were offered TO tine postotiice
appropriation bill in the interest OF yari-
Gus classes OF post Office employees, but
they ell went down before the points of
oruer raised by Mr.. Loud, the chairman
of the pos toll oe COMMITTEES who Is In
charge of the bill.
Mr. Lanham In his remarks was given
very attentive hearing by his political
colleagues. The gold Democrats, hs said,
who bore none Of the scars OF eattle now
with unhridled audacity did not propose
TO return like the prodigal son In humiii-
ty, but they came demanding as a oondi-
ton OF their return that they should head
the procession. The talk OF the re-organi-
cation OF this Democratic party, he said,
was puerils and unkind, the talk OF
changing the name of the party was dis
tasteful to the rank and file. The Demo
cratic uarty had suffered defeat many
times, but 1t would survive as long as
free institutions did. The talk OF shelving
MIR. Bryan was premature. 1t was inn
probable that he never again would aspire
to the nomination. Republicans differed
in preliminary skirnishes, but they were
always united when the real shook Of
battle came. He referred TO the action OF
Senator Hoar as a striking example and
proof OF this fact. He eontrasted the
course of the Massachusetts, Senator with
that Of MIR. Cleveland, twice elected
President bv the Democratic party who
in two campaigns subsequent TO his own
election turned his back ON his Gu oarty
associates.

Indians Confer.

Indian runners have brought news

the proposed opening of the west end
of the Red Lake reservation. This is
the plan to which Congressman Eddy
gave his unqualified Endorsement. inn
mediately after the reelection, at a
meeting of the business men of Red
Lake county, held in Thief River Falls.
At that time the hostility of the In
dians to any scheme for reducing the
present reservation was the principal
obstacle in the way of the opening of
this rich agricultural country. The
Indians now offer to sell this land for
uniform price of $3.50 per acre, the
money to be at once divided pro rata
among the members of the Red Lake
