FAVORS The ORDINANCE
Ordinance Committee Will Report Fa-
vorably on Telephone Franchise
Ordinance to the Council.

The ordinance committee yesterday
afternoon decided to report favorably
on an ordinance granting franchise to
the North Dakota Independent Tele-
phone Co. to transact long distance
telephone business in the city. The
ordinance which the telephone COM
pany presented at the last meeting of
the council was not favored by the
committee until after some changes
had been made. The committee
favored restricting the district in
which the telephone company might
do business to that part of the city
between the Great Northern and the
Northern Pacific tracks. The ordi-
nance favored by the committee pro-
vides for ~ per cent gross earn
ing tax, instead of a 2 per cent tax,
and provides that the franchise is not
assignable. The word only is in
serted in the ordinance after the words

81 Wall street is sure enough
queer place Every member of its
discussed stock exchange seems i'm
bued with the idea that the hub Of the
universe is very near the corner of
that narrow and somewhat antiquated
thoroughfare and It's neighboring an
tithesis, Broad street, and that what
ever is done or said or thought by the
rest. of the world is designed to affect
the prices of the things In which it
sDeculates. That not only the laws
of the state of New York and of con-
gress, but of nature. also, are ordain-
ed and enacted with a view to helping
or harming them. Every rainfall that
drenches the parched and thirsty
earth; every hour Of sunshine that
helps to bring nearer the fruits Of the
farmers thrift and every blizzard that
temporarily places an embargo upon
railway traffic--all are preconceived to-
benefit or injure them. That the corn
whose rustling tassels speak so elo-
quently of natures bounty; that every
teeming acre of yeilowing wheat re-
dolent of the breeze and bloom of ives
tern prairies. and every white flecked
cotton field Of the sunny southland
sprang into existence for no other rea-
son or purpose than to afford them
renewed opportunity to gamble in
commercial values involving future de-
livery. Poor. purblind, nightmare
haunted heirs expectant to the throne
of Mammon!

The Modification Of Nose.

Mulberry, Ind, Independent: There
is much censure of Jim Sycafoose for
letting his eighteen -year-old boy Nose

and keeps his seat most of the time.

CONGRESS-.
Senate Summary.

Washington, Jan. 16. Senate leaders | tonight regard the end of the Browns vile discussion in sight and 1t is con- fdently expected that a compromise resolution offered by Senator Foraker l just before the close of today's session will be adopted. MT. Foraker held the floor to make what he today ex- pressed the hope would be the con- cluding speech on the subject. He will proceed immediately after morning business tomorrow, unless in terfered with by the special order of the day. which is the delivery of eulo- gies on the life of the late Senator Bate of Tennessee. Whether he speaks tomorrow or Friday 1t Is expected that a vote will soon follow. although it is possible that the brief speeches may be made before the end is reached.
 While on the floor today MT. Fora ker offered a substitute for all of his previous resolutions on the Browns vile affair as follows:
 Resolved. that the committee on military affairs is hereby authorized and directed. by subcommittee or otherwise, to take and have printed the testimony for the purpose of as- certaining all the facts with reference to or connected with the affray at Brownsville. Texas, on the night of August 13, 1906. Said committee Is authorized to send for persons and papers, to administer paths; to sit dur ing the sessions of the Senate and if deemed advisable at Brownsville or elsewhere; the expenses of the inves- tigation to be paid out of the contin- gent fund of the Senate"
 The language of this provision is sa tisfactory to Senator Lodge and other supporters of the administra- tion in the matter of the discharge of the negro troops, and 1t Is believed by Senators that 1t will be quite unani- mously accepted.
 The feature of the debate today was the arraignment by Senator Carmack of Republican Senators who have crit icised the president fo rhis action in the Brownsville matter. He regarded 1t as an attempt to "dethrone" the president as the leader of the party and declared that either the presi- dent must be remonfmated or the plat form on which he stood CT returned to the Democrats.
 Senators Stone. Money and Knox followed each upholding the authority of the president to take the action he did and favoring an investigation of the facts connected with the Browns vile affray. Senator Foraker started to make his closing speech. but before he concluded the Senate adjourned for the day. leaving him in possession of the floor.
