THE APPORTIONMENT OF SENIOR
SENATORS IN OUR LEGISLATURE

IA AsHlNGToN' D. c. March s.
" The Committee on Territories
will, during next week. take up
the matter of apportioning the term Of
Office of senior Senators in the Ha-
waiian Legislature, and as the political
complexion of that body is largely in
Volved, the matter is an important one.
On the 18th of February, Delegate Will
cox introduced a bill providing that
those senators who received the lowest
number of votes shall hold office for the
term of two years from the date of
their election. This bill, though intro
duced by Wilcox, has the reservation,
in his endorsement, on the back. of by
request" and it is precise with a bill
introduced by Senator Cecil Brown in
the Hawaiian Senate. and provides
that j. d. Paris and n. Russell OF the
First; VIM. White Of the Second; d.
Kanuha, ID. Kalauokalani and Geo. r.
Carter of the Third; and l. II. Kahilina
OF the Fourth District, shall hold for
the term Of two years.
on the cath of February, Wilcox in
troduced another bill, which provides
that the fifteen senators elected No
Der 9Th, 1900 shall hold for the term of
four years, and that at the election of
1904 of the fifteen senators to be elect
ed, the eight who receive the highest
number of votes cast shall hold for four
years and the remaining seven for two
years; and apportions them, as to dis
tricts, according 10 the provisions OF
the Organic Act.
This first bill win meet with the OBJ
lection that the Legislature has already
apportioned the term of the senators
in the First and Second Districts. and
that nothing remains for Congress to
do, in Strengthening out the matter, but

CHINESE PETITION.
Want Gov. Dole TO Ask Congress for
100000 for Fire Claims.

Chinese residents of the city are cir
culating a petition which is to be pre-
scented to Congress, asking an appro-
rriaiion of $1,000. 900 for the payment Of
claims growing out of the Chinatown
fire. The petition is to be given to
Governor Dole for presentation to Con-
sress upon his coming visit to Wash
ington. The petition says:
To the President-The undersigned
residents of the Territory of Hawaii,
sufferers directly or indirectly by the
calamitous fire of January 20, A. ID.
1900, caused by the Board of Health III
It's endeavors TO stamp out the bubon-
ic plague then prevailing in the city OF
HCnoluiu. and which threatened the
very life Of the Territory
Hereby respectfully petition the
President of the United States to rec
ommend to Congress the urgent neees-
sity of appropriating the sum of $3,-
OO0,G00 70 alleviate the present distress
ing condition of the direct sufferers
caused by said fire.
The said money to be used in paying
such claims as may be awarded by the
Fire Claims Commission appointed by
tho government Of the Territory of Ha-
wall.
The urgency of such a mea sure is
more particularly felt by us in that the
extreme distress Of many of said suf-
ferers is obvious.
Another cause which prompts us to
make this petition is that the treasury
of the Territory is depleted and unable
20 pay said approved claims owing to
the fact that the customs receipts no
longer form part of the revenue of the
Territory of Hawaii.
And for this we will ever pray

to determine upon the apportionment
in the Third and Fourth Districts.
The Wilcox bill will be confronted
with the proposition that Congress hay
ing, by Section 80 of the Organic Act,
given to the legislature the power TO
provide the details for the apportion-
ment, 1t will not disturb what the Leg
stature has done intthe First and Sec
ond Districts, even though it did not
complete its work as to the Third and
Fourth.
An important question arises in this
connection as to the authenticity of the
action of the Legislature in this regard.
Mr.. Edgar Caypless. the secretary Of
the Hawaiian Senate, is still here, and
has been requested to be present with
the committee when the matter is con-
sidered. Having official knowledge Of
the proceedings the Senate and its joint
sessions with the lower House, Mr..
Caypless statements will presumably
have considerable weight In determn-
ing what the committee will recon-
mend to the House.
The passage of either bill, as origin
ally introduced, would be an infraction
vi the organic ACT, OF at leaSt sucn II
modification of 1t as would establish
just such precedent as Congress Is at
present inclined to avoid.
The House Committee on Public
Buildings and Grounds will soon report
an omnibus bill for public buildings.
There will be no appropriation for pub
lie buildings at either Honolulu or Hlo,
no hearings having been given and no
effort made for an appropriation.

Indiana's battle record during the
war for the Union comprised a total
of 30S engagements, which took place
in sixteen states and one territory.
One of these states was Indiana,
which was thrice invaded by the Con-
federates. The first invasion of this
armed and organized force of rebels
occurred at Newburg, Warrick coun-
ty, on the Ohio river, fifteen miles
above Evansville, on July Is, 1862.
The force consisted of but thirty-two
officers and men, under Adam r. John
son, whose object was plumber. The
conduct of these raiders was that of
thieves rather than soldiers. They
ransacked the town and returned five
hours after their landing to Kentucky.
The second raid was that of a COM
pany of Kentucky cavalry, under Cap
tain Thomas H. Hines, belonging to
Gen. John H. Morgan's division. This
force, 62 men, entered the state on
June IL, 1863, Is miles above Camel
ton, for the purpose of picking up
fresh horses. All except Hines and
two of his men were captured. The
third invasion was by Gen. John H.
Morgan, with about 1900 men, July
8, 1863, crossing the Ohio from Bran
nenburg, Ky.
Indiana troops were engaged in the
last battle of the war, fought at Pal
metto ranch, Texas, May ID, 1865, five
weeks after the Confederates surren-
dered at Appomattox, Va.

TURN MIGHTY STREAM
Sticks In Sand Change Current the
Swift Mississippi

mighty stream that while it will over
throw the strongest obstacle to its
course that can be built, it will yield
to the slightest. One could hardly find
a more striking illustration of the
power of slight things than the sharp
contrast between the behavior of the
river against a powerful check and
against slight one. For years the
government engineers struggled to
direct the river with massive stone
bikes. When the river could not
overthrow one of these it dug under
it, and so wrecked it. Money without
end was spent on bikes. There was a
mighty one below Gold Dust landing
in Tennessee. 1t stood longer than
most of them, but a flood in the river
at last conquered and swept it away.
How, then, can the river be direct
ed? Simply by few sticks set in
the sand. A row if pi1ing, sometimes
with few brush hurdles, accomplish
es it. The river sweeps through, ed
dies behind it, dropping sand and
building up a bar Nowadays, travel
ing down the river through stretches
that once were broad and shallow, one
finds them narrow and deep, with
sandy sides, over the tops of which
can be seen just the tips of the piles
that accomplished the mighty change.

A PHILADELPHIA Veteran.

1t would be difficult, if not impos-
sible, to find in Philadelphia, or per-
haps in the whole country, a man who
has played more parts, filled more i'm
portant Offices. and attained greater
eminence in business, political, mill
tary and social circles than Gen. Louis
Wagner.
Louis Wagner was born in Germany
in 1888, and came to this country with
his parents in 1S49. In 1861 he en-
tered the army as first lieutenant OF
Company D, Eighty-eighth Pennsyl-
vania Volunteers, and finally became
colonel of the regiment and brevet
brigadier general. He was severely
wounded and taken prisoner at the
second battle of Bull run, rejoined
his regiment after parole, and took
part in the battle of Charlottesville,
after which his wound broke out
again and he was put in command of
Camp William Penn at Philadelphia,
where he organized and sent to the
front about $4,000 colored troops. He
was mustered out in July, 1865.
Gen. Wagner organized the Depart
ment of Pennsylvania, Grand Army
of the Republic, in 1867, and was
elected its first commander; was elect
ed junior vice commander-in-chief in
1870, senior vice commander-in-chief
