SUPPORT THE GOVERNMENT.
An Immediate Realization of Liber-
tics Granted by the Manifesto
imperative.
(By the Associated Press. }

Moscow. Nov. 22.-At the end of
four days debate, the executive COM
mittee of the Zemsovt congress
brought in the following resolution
in favor of supporting the government
the reading of which was greeted
with great applause.
Considering thar the imperial man
ifestO satisfies all the demands voiced
since the ZemstVo congress of a year
ago, and that the liberties accorded
by the manifesto are<ind!spensable to
the disqualification of the country, the
congress declares itself in complete
solidarity with this constitutional
bass. The responsibility for the real
ization of the programme rests upon
the cabinet. The congress is con-
WINGED that The cabinet can count on
the support of the great majority OF
the ZemstVos. and the municipalities
"a long as it follows the path for the
accomplishment of the liberties prom
Used by the manifesto. but every deVia-
ton will encounter decisive opposition.
The congress believes that the sole
means of guaranteeing the authority
OF the government. the pacfication of
the country and the support of the
people are the immediate fpromulga-
ton of universal suffrage in elections
to the douma, the Transformation of
the first douma into a constituent as
sembiy for the elaboration with the
appreciation Of the Emperor of
for the Russian empire and the or
Ganzation of territorial reforms.
Measures for the realization of the
liberties granted by the manifesto are
regarded as Immediately Imperative. /

Washington, ID. c., Nov. 22.-When
the President sends in his list of re-
cess nominations of Federal office
holders to be confirmed by the Senate
as soon as that body announces 10
him that il is ready for business. there
will be ii fairly large number of post
office appointments for the State of
North Carolina to be acted upon.
Since the Senate adjourned in
March last. Mr.. Roosevelt has made
the following nominations of post
masters, known as presidential APP
pointeeS. for that State: Albert Mil

the plans of the chairman of the Re-

publicly announced that Mr.. Dorsetts
confirmation will be opposed vigor-
ously by the Rollins wing of the Re-

tests. it is also asserted, will be en-
tered before the committee against
the confirmation of Mr.. John c. 3.
Morton as postmaster at Morehead
CITY, and Mr.. VIM. f. Snow, at High
Point. but not exactly by the same
parties in the case of the last named
gentleman.
Senator f. NJ. Simmons, of North

Committee on Postoffices and Post

intending a change of plan in the type
OF canal 10 he constructed. Not that
they are for or against q sea-level
canal i'm itself. but that the pending
proceedings create limitless opnor-
tunity for delay. and the forces which
have all along opposed the isthmian
canal will not lose the opportunity
to make another long fight against
the whole project. The government
, has already spent sixty million doi-
lars getting ready &c construct the
canal. and now the whole PROJECT
seems to be up in the air again. and
