Fargo, N. D., Feb. 20.--Reliable re-
ports reach here from several impor-
tant points In the state showing that
the insurgent movement is already on
the wane. The fact is, the insurgent
agitators, who are nothing more or
less than politicians out Of job. be-
gun their campaign too early, and 1t is
becoming evident that their methods
are not only crude but show a degree
of insincerity which does not impress
thoughtful people. Indeed, the fact is
undeniable that the insurgents have no
issue except that Of denunciation and
personal abuse applied to the state adj
ministration and the delegation in
Washington. This is evidenced by the
line of procedure which Is being fol-
lowed by former Congressman Spald-
ing, who has been travelling. over the
state airing his grievances against
what he denominates the gang, and
the bosses" at whose hands he has
twice accepted a nomination. His dis

he was perfectly willing to accep. a
third nomination at the hands Of the
men he is now denouncing.
There are some things in connection
with Mr.. Spalding's political aspira-
lions which are not generally under
stood by the public at large He went
to the Grand Forks convention in 1904
supposedly with solid Cass county
delegation behind him. AS a matter
of fact, It is doubtful If there was more
than four or Ave real supporters Of
Mr.. Spalding from his own county.
The delegates to that convention will
recall the remarkable lack of enthus-
iasm in the Cass county delegation,
and the insiders those who helped
to shape the party policy and lay plans
for party success-well know that not

A esprit, Seance.

Alderman Sherlock is trying to solve
an occult problem. During the time
he was in Minot recently, he was quot
ed by versatile reporter as having
some heavy conversation about NUM-
cipal affairs. The reporter probably
gets into "spiritualism" and sees and
hears things from some other world,
but Sherlock objects to being played
for the dead man in a seance. The
story is out of the whole cloth.

Resolution for en- Investigation.


Resolution for en- investigation.
WARRINGTON, June Ex-senator LAFoi-
lette called up his resolution directing
the Interstate Commerce Commission un-
der the Tillman-G Gillespie resolution TO In
vestigate the grain elevators In tho North
west.
Mr.. Foraker interjeoted tho opinion that
the most useful work done by the Interstats
Commerce Commission since II was estab-
lished was In the information II has
brought TO light by the investigations un-
der the Tillman-G Gillespie resolution-infor-
nation that ought to be taken up by the
Department Of Justice with q view Of crimi.
nal action.
Mr.. LaFollette said that the investi-
cation would show the same conditions Of
combination between grain elevator oom-
panies and railroads as now exist In the
coal business. He declared that certain
railroads had given preference to special
elevator companies and later had shared
the monopoly with the preferred companies
Mr.. Foraker expressed himself as heartily
in favor Of the LaFollette resolution, as
did Mr.. Nelson of Minnesota, who said that
the conditions In the Northwest in the
matter of collision between railroads and
elevator companieJ were as bad as they
were in the coal business in West Virginia
The resolution passed unanimously.

Mr.. Lodge would vote against accepting

change made In the pipe line amendment
by which these c arriers were permitted 10
transport their own products. ,
At 0 o'clock Mr.. McLaurin OF Mississippi
took the floor to make a constitutional
argument. Mr.. Tillman protested and
urged Mr.. McLaurin to ALLOW the bill TO
go to conference.
Il don't believe the Senator from South
Carolina ought to occupy all the time and
then complain when somebody else as
sumes to say a word. said Mr.. McLaurin;
displaying some temper. "He has occupied
ten times, yes, fifty times. as muc OF the
time Of the Senate as ! have" :"
Mr.. Elkins urged adjournment. saying
the question could not be disposed OF to-
night, as he desired to speak for an hour.
Mr.. Tillman insisted that Mr.. Elkins speak
tonight, but Mr.. Elkins thought differ
emily, The alteration became so warm
that Mr.. Tillman shook his hand in MIR.
Elkins's face and it required the pacifcatory
offices Of mutual friends to bring about an
understanding after the Senate adjourned,
The result was that Mr.. McLaurin delivered
his constitutional argument and the con-
ference report on the rate bill went over
until tomorrow, when Mr.. Elkins will
make a speech defending it.

The largest item in the bill is So, 900, 900 for

THAT the tariff duties, both import and
export, imposed by the authorities Of the
United States, or of the provisional govern
ments thereof in the Philippine Islands.
prior to March 8, 1902, at all ports and places
In said islands, upon all goods. wares and
from the United States or from foreign
countries, or exported from said islands,
be hereby legalized and ratified and the
collection Of such duties prior to March
8, 1902, is hereby legalized, ratified and CON-
flrmed as fully to all intents and purposes as
if the same had by prior acts of Congress
been specifically authorized and directed"
Regarding this provision there is a wide
difference Of opinion, even among the mem
bers of the Committee on Appropriations.
1t is held by some that { will not only save
the Government the amount Of Philippine
revenue collections, to recover which no
suits nave been brought but that it will
also prevent the payment of those claims
which have already passed into judgment
by decision of the Supreme Court and
which amount to about 500, 900. Others
hold that this nus be paid, but that it puts
up the bars against any further suits to
recover duties paid while the Philippine
Islands were held under military occupa-
ton. The bill carries no specific %appropria-
adiudicated.

port On the Bill.

The senate Agrees to the Conference Re-
port On the Bill.
WASHINGTON, June Ex-senator Lodge
presented in the Senate this afternoon the
conference report on the bill to preserve
the waters of Niagara River and Niagara
Falls.
Mr.. Hopkins Of illinois attacked the re-
port because the conferees had omitted his
amendment providing that nothing in the
bill should be construed as waving the
rights Of Chicago to take the waters of
Lake Michigan. This amendment was in
tended to retain TO Chicago the right to
take water for sanitary and drainage uses.
Mr.. Lodge believed the Hopkins amend
ment was unnecessary, for Chicago's rights
were protected under the bill without the
amendment.
The conference report was agreed to, Mr..
Hopkins's being the only vote in the mega
tive. .
AS agreed upon the bill increases the
amount of water which may be diverted
from the American side Of the river from
10, 200 cubic feet per second in the aggregate,
as provided in the bill as it passed the House,
to is, 900 cubic feet per seooAd;but provides
further that the Secretary Of War shall issue
no revocable permits for the subtraction
of water, as he is authorized to under the
measure, until the limit Of Is, 900 feet diver
sion has been tried for at least six months to
note the effect Of the withdrawal of water
upon the scenic beauty Of the Falls. The
amount which may be diverted will enable
the Pittsburg Reduction Works to obta1n
20 wer. and if was for this purpose that the
increase was made.

pat Protection Speech.
WASHINGTON. June 25.-When the House
met at 8 o'clock for it's first night session
this year there were less than twoscore
members in their seats and the galleries
were we'll nigh deserted but later there was
an increased attendance Of both members
and visitors. In committee of the whole
the bill to amend the customs administra-
tive act was nominally taken up and Mr..
McCleary of Minnesota delivered a stand
pat protection speech which has been on
the Ia pis for a month past. His exordium
was:
Il stand unequivocally and without
suffering for the Republican doctrine OF
protection and reciprocity, as enunciated
in the Republican national platform Of 1904,
as that platform has been interpreted by
Theodore Roosevelt.
"The platform thus enunciated and thus
interpre ted remains the standard Of party
faith and the obligation Of party honor
un til supplanted by another national on
We ntion, authorized by the party members
tn roughout the nation to restate the faith
of the party. No one else has authority
to modify or set it aside. To try to do
30 would in itself be a breach of faith"
Mr.. Pou of North Carolina followed, at
lacking the tariff.
Mr.. Rainey of Illinois was the last speaker,
continuing his speech Of several weeks
ago against the watch trust, with an ac-
count Of the experience Of a New York
dealer as illustrating the truth Of the charges
r elating to the dumping process.
Mr.. Rainey announced that he had gone
into this fight for business; that he had the
evidence to convict the presidents of the
companies comprising the trust, and that
