WASHINGTON, d. c., February c.
The Senate did not have an opportunity
to-day to hear the discussion of Mr.. Pat
terson's resolution on the action of the
Democratic caucus. as was partially
promised yesterday. but gave the entire
day to review of the prerogatives of
the Senate in the matter OF framing
treaties. The question was raised by Mr..
Bacon in Il speech on his resolution re-
questing information concerning the AL
geciras conference. He talked for al
most three hours. and was followed by
Mr.. Spooner who spoke for considerably
more than an hour. Both speeches were
interspersed with debate largely between
Messrs. Bacon and Spooner. and there
were two or three very sharp clashes
between them.
Mr.. Bacons speech was in the main a
plea for the right of the Senate to "ad-
wise and consent" in the matter of the
negotiation of treaties. and was largely q
reply 10 Mr.. Spooner's recent speech on
this question.

rangements, have prevented coal from the

that the Pennsylvania Company has the

HITS AND MRS.

While we have not been delegated
to record the history of any of the
prominent men of the state, we take it
as our duty at this time to say a few
words in BREWER type. which has late
ly been paid for, about a man whose
name is as we'll known in North OAK
ota as that of Royal Baking Powder,
we refer to Senator LaMoure of Penn
bina. Shortly after he was born he
was called Judson. His father called
him Judson at six in the morning.
One call was generally sufficient, but
if it was not there were exercises in
the bed room of which we will not
speak further. His father called him
Jud for short. A good many N. D.
people who were short have called on
Jud, and if they deserved a lift they
got it. When he was fourteen years
old he was trustee of a large red COW,
walking delegate to the spring back of
the house, chief advisor to the wood
pile and managing editor of a large
and growing potato patch. He at
tended to all of these duties in a are
full and painstaking manner and al
ways ready and willing to drop his
hoe and join the neighbours boys at
the swimming hole, where he washed
himself carefully twice a day during
the summer months, circus days and
Sundays ommitted-weather permit
ting. Jud was president of the Hazel
Nut Gatherers. He conducted the af.
fairs of the Office in a careful and con-
scientious manner and broke his leg
twice by falling from the wood shed
roof during an annual meeting.
When a young man he accumulated
considerable experience in the mer.
camille business by trading horses
with a grocery man. After the chores
were done he occasionally drove ovel
to the county seat and talked to the
sheriff about his reelection. The
