served than ~ there was a closure. The
resolution. he insisted. called on the senate
practically to closure those VIII happened
to be con~scientlously opposed TO the omni-
bus statehood bill.
Mr. Teller tCoio.D agreed with Mr..
Spooner and believed In maintaining free
discussion. rsE
Mr.. Platt Comm said that he did not
believe in absolute untrammeled debate
when Il reaches the point Of obstruction.
MIR. Lodge (Mass) said a majority in the
senate always obtained a vote when Il was
a real majority, which must be something
more than numerical.
Mr.. McComas ND offered a substitute
for the resolution, which was a copy of an
amendment to the rules OF the senate
offered by Mr., Plat (Conn.) some time ago.
and providing for a limited closure.
Mr.. Dubois Qdaho), answering particu-
larry Mr.. Lodge. declared that II a majority
Of the senate thought Il for the best inter-
ests Of the country to pass a bill they ought
to be allowed to vote and not be compelled
to belong to the. majority party. "Other-
wise,' said he, 1.-THE minority might just as
we'll go home.
Mr.. Mason (ll) said the minority was
the great part OF the senate, which was the
only body where the minority stopped leg
i~slation. '''."
Mr.. Csrmack (renn.) said where debates
were carried on purely for the purpose Of
obstruction they were likely TO lead to a
closure rule" which would defeat legitimate
debate. 80.
No action was taken on the resolution or
the substitute, although a motion had
been made to refer the matter to the com
mittee on rules.

Jones (Ark.) were appointed conferees on
the Indian appropriation bill.
Mr.. Mason Gll) reported the postof1ce
appropriation bill.
In addition to the amendment providing
for the admission Of New Mexico and Art
Eona as states. the bill makes changes with
conduct OF the Postofice department.
The statehood amendment Is somewhat diff
ferent from the statehood bill, as Arizona
is the first OF the territories mentioned
whereas 1t is the last mentioned in the
bill. The transposition was made In or
der to give Arizona the benefit Of the first
vote in case OF a division.
Other amendments are as follows; The
aggregate amount to be paid as salaries &c
postmasters is changed by $75S 900, and def
nitely fixing the salary OF the postmaster
at Chicago at 5000. There also Is a gen
eral increase Of the salaries of assistant
postmasters. The appropriation for the
purchase and rental Of canceling machine:
is increased from 100000 to $4,000.
The appropriation for free delivery serv'
fee, $3.50, $50, $50, an increase Of $1,s50,S $50.
Ten division superintendents in the rura
free delivery service are allowed, instead
Of seven, as in the house bill. and the tota
appropriation for that service Is placed a.
S12. B26, 500, instead of s., 1928, 400, in the house

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1S.-There. was a
lively debate today in the senate over sena-

a vote on the statehood bill before the ad-
iournment OF congress. To this proposition
Senator McComas (Md.), reofered sena-
tor Platt's Comm closure resolution, In
trodueed two years ago. and a motion was
made to refer the whole proposition to the
committee on rules. This was pending
when the senate went into executive ses-
sion.
The discussion brought out the fact that
the senate was strongly opposed to closure
in any form. ,
Senator spooner (wis.) opposed Senator
Quay's motion, saying 1t was In a sense
closure to which he was opposed, OF q
censure upon the minority, which he did
not think was right.

THE CHARITY HOSPITAL.


The project of the Medical society
to establish a charity hospital in Pa
ducah, it seems from careful consid-
GRAFTON, can be commended to the pub
lie as one worthy of hearty co-opera-
tion. II appears that il will not only
give the public q non-seotsriau, non.
political institution Of which the city
would be proud. but will do away with
one that has for years been an eye-sore
and great expense to the people, and
will in addition save the city money.
1t has become evident that Psducah
will not at the present rate have city
hospital for several years at least, as
the people vote down every effort to
issue bonds and provide such improve
ments, and the current expenses which
increase every year, an past extrsva-
gances which have lett the city badly
in debt, will preclude the idea of any
of these improvements by appropria.
tion for some time.
Hence an effort on part of the med
ical profession assisted by all other
good citizens who are interested in tine
welfare of the city and the establish
ment of modern institutions here, to
provide something the city may never
otherwise get, should meet with ear
nest approval. The plan is to main
tain the charity hospital by charity,
private, and marine patients. The city
will be asked to appropriate $1,000
year for taking care of city patients,
which will enable it to dispense with
the city hospital entirely, insure its
patients better treatment than they
are now receiving because Of more and
better facilities, and not cost any more,
If a. much. The new hospital will be
q modern building constructed and
equipped with every modern appliance
and sanitary arrangement, and to this
the city may send its patients, ana
there its responsibility cease. This
will be cheaper for the city, better for
the patients and better for the people
who can then boast of first class hos
pital. 1t will be run by competent
people and managed Is may be later
determined, but the principal thing
that concerns the city and taxpayers
is that city patients will be cared for
for a stipulated sum month, no mat
ter how many Of them there may be.
Such a system would have another
beneficial effect, inasmuch as the pa
tiepts would be discharged as soon as
possible. and the new hospital man
agement would not be imposed on as
the city often ia.
These details, however, are to be
arranged later. The main thing is to
get q modern hospital, and the gentle.
men who are back Of it are prominent
citizens who have no scheme to pro-
mulgate, and no motive except to give
Psducah something the medical profess
sionabove everything else has long re-
allied the need of. II tn ey get the nee.
essary encouragement, they will sue
coed. II they do not, it will be only
another evidence Of the indifference
