sufficient proof that the training offer
ed the students in this line has been
excellent. The interest in the senate
work has steadily increased through
the year ana no doubt it will commence

Deputy Plummer was present in

that he be allowed to continue the case
until the return of Judge Hill, who is
out of the city.
The recorder said that if the attor-
neys insisted upon Il hearing, Wednes-
day, they might proceed, but that he
would prefer not to take the RESPONSE
bilty in Il case where there was Sc
much at stake ana in which the publ,
was SO deeply interested. The attor-

case went over until one week from

Paine's Celery Compound has always
appealed to the sick and suffering with

case they have been thoroughly salts
fed. and convinced that Paine's Celery
Compound effected cures that were
marvellous, astonishing and happy.
Paine's Celery Compound claims a
field not successfully filed by any other
remedy known to medical science. 1t IL

pear and pay the men as agreed, yes

company for board of the men and for
store supplies.
The strength of the obstruction was
doubled. this evening. A pile of ties,
timbers and steel rails is surmounted
by the American flag and lanterns

to the pole bearing the nag.
The whites are the most excited and

out to capture it.
The spirit of destruction prevails, to-

guarded by strikers to prevent the
movement Of the engines.
The State railroad commissioners
were to inspect the road, today, but
did not appear. and the strikers say the
commissioners will not be allowed to
pass over the line.

The press and the Congressional Record
have contained numerous statements of
members as to the danger and bad effect
Of having a surplus in the treasury, and of
the necessity for repeating the war tax, the
bill for which has already passed the House
and doubtless soon will the Senate. To a
disinterested party it would seem to have
been a much better policy and more
economical in the end to retain a portion Of
that tax, repeating those portions as to
which there was complaint, such as the tax
on kilograms, checks. bills of lading, etc.,
and use the money for the erection Of pub
lie buildings SO much needed. not only here
at the capital. but in the states also. where
the government is paying rent.
There can be no question that If Congress
would use 1t or the surplus in the treasury
for the erection of suitable public build
ings SO much needed at the capital and in
the states the people would willingly pay
the tax for a year or two more. To an out
slider the course pursued by Congress in
these matters looks much more like dema-
gogism than sta tesIpa nship. OBSERVER.

In addition to all these there Is the me-
mortal bridge, for which plans have been
made and approved, and for which not only
the citizens, but the nation at large, has

Then, too, money Is needed for cOmplet-
ing the plans for the Improvement of the
nations capital, recently hdevised by the
commission authorized by Congress, and
which has aroused the enthusiasm and re-
ceived the unanimous approval of the peo-
pie and the press throughout the land.
The bad economy OF such non-action on
the part Of Congress is we'll illustrated by
it's past action. For instance, in 1850, when
it was proposed to enlarge the Capitol
grounds by taking square at the north
east and southeast corners SO as to fill out
the grounds and make them symmetrical
and complete, the owners offered to sell
those two squares for $302.17s. and after
twelve years delay. in 1872, the govern
ment paid for those same two squares

they were offered for In 1850. So in regard
to the site for the Supreme Court. After
the bilr had twice passed the Senate but
not acted on by the House, the owners Of
some of the land, despairing of action. i'm
proved their property by the erection of
twenty-five substantial brick buildings,
which. of course, will have to be paid for
additionally II ever the ground is taken.
That is what comes OF delaying these mat
ters.
And now. to cap the climax. a bill has
