In closing Mr.. Tawney said: Whatever
the unthinking or the superficial critic
may now say the impartial and non-par-
tisan historian will hereafter record and
truthfully state that, in the affirmative
work performed and in contending against
and successfully resisting unconstitutional
demands upon the powers and the Treas
ury of the federal government, the work
of no previous session is comparable with
the work of the first session of the Six
tieth Congress-"

The conference report on the general
deficiency bill, the last of the great gov
eminent supply measures acted upon by
Congress, was agreed to by the Senate
yesterday. 1t carries an appropriation of
$50, 71S,S4S, of which $12. 400. $50 is to be-
gin work authorized by the public build
ings bill, the authorizations of which ag-
gregate over s33.OOOOOO.
The House passed the bill at $50 last
night. The bill itself was only briefly
discussed in the House, but 1t furnished
an opportunity to Messrs. Tawney (Minn.)
and Fitzgerald On W. chairman and
ranking minority member, respectively,
of the committee on appropriations, to
make the usual statements regarding the
state of the national finances.
Mr.. Tawney in opening said: 1.-THE an

coed those of any other government in
the world. The work of analysing the
estimates for them. of inquiring into
their necessities, together with the need

previous appropriations, is rapidly becom-
ing the most important duty and the most
prodigious task to be performed in con-
nection with the legislative department of
the government; a task whose magnitude
is not appreciated, nor is the labor neces-
sary in it's performance understood 1t
requires constant application from the be-
ginning until the close of the session,
and the most careful discrimination, to
prevent needless appropriations for the
federal government or unauthorized ap-
preparations for the exercise of govern

or for the doing of that which belongs

Result of Filibustering.
Referring to the democratic filibuster
which has marked the last third of the
present session, Mr.. Tawney said:
1T is matter Of sincere regret that
to accomplish political purpose or to
gain some partisan advantage. the minor
ity in this House deemed itself justified
in disregarding it's responsibility by pur-
suing the policy it has followed for al
most two months. under the leadership
of the distinguished gentleman from
Mississippi tA1r. Williams); policy which
made it necessary for the majority in

SANITARY CONDITION
OF GREENWOOD
Being Looked After by the Business
League.

The Sanitation Committee of the
Greenwood Business League, composed
OF all the physicians and the two plumb
ers of the city, has gone to work in
earnest and proposes to sec to it that
the city Ia put in iirst-class sanitary
condition and kept that way In future
The Committee appeared before the
City Council last Tuesday evening and
made certain recommendations relative
to the material welfare of the city, and
succeeded in getting favorable action
upon its suggestions.
The Leagues Committee recommend
ed the appointment Of City Health

request, fixing the salary OF said Health
Officer at 5000 90 per year.
The Sanitation Committee met with
the City Attorney on Wednesday evening
for the purpose OF discussing and out
lining tho duties and powers Of the pro-
posed Health Officer. Their report was
submitted to the Council last night and
the recommendation made we're On
acted into an ordinance.
1t is the purpose of the Council to
have the city put In perfect sanitary
condition, as suggested by the Leagues
committee.
The League Committee also recon-
mended that drainage canal be opened
from the city to Walker Lake, few
miles southeast of the city limits, The
Council was agreeable to the sugges-
tion for a better drainage system, and
this matter will be given attention as
soon AZ the matter can be- fully investi-
gated. la this connection we will state
that the League has assurances Of liber-
oil financial assistance from the Y. & M.

BUSINESS LEAGUE

DR.. ]. ". DULANEy'S
VALUABLE INVENTION.
kn0ckdown ReGeptacies for the Ship
ment OF all Kinds Of Goods.

Dr. J. ". Dulaney has applied for let
ters patent ON his invention OF several
knockdown reeeptacles for the safe and
economical shipment OF any kind Of pro-
duce or merchandise, and there is no
question but that he has succeeded in
making something that will fill long
felt want.
Recently DIR. Dulaney visited Wash
ington for the purpose Of making appli-
cation for letters patent, and his inven-
tion attracted considerable attention in
that city-the universal expression
being that there was nothing like it in
existence, and that it would readily be
adopted for all kinds of shipping pur-
poses as soon as the boxes could be
manufactured for use.
This knockdown receptacle is a
structure adapted to be assembled and
held without the use of nails, screws or
other fastening devices entering the
walls thereof. The walls are provided
at the ends with parallel strips having
interlocking mortises and lemons so ar
ranged that when the parts are assem-
bled they are held against longitudinal
movement upon each other and the end
portions firmly supported between said
strips. One of the end portions is pro-
vided with an interlocking strip and an
overlapping side and thus adapted to
enter groove formed by the parallel
strips upon the sides and to be secured
in position by tie extending over the
side carried by the end and secured or
held in any desired manner. Other
novel features are set forth in the de-
tailed statement of claims for this
unique invention.
1t is adapted to comprise box, crate,
barrel or other enclosing receptacle for
transportation or storage, and the saw
ing of material and space and the Sc
curity to goods combine to make its
general use certainty.
A certain capitalist has already made
DR.. Dulaney proposition to purchase
half interest in his splendid invention
and to arrange for the early manufact-
ure of these shipping receptacles.
Another proposition to form a large
stock company in Greenwood and pre-
pare for manufacturing and selling them
in this city is being considered by the
inventor.
The Commonwealth is confident that
such an industry in Greenwood would
be worth great deal to the city. 1t
would employ large number of people
and materially increase our population
and trade, and we hope the plan to
form stock company may be consum-
mated.
In the meantime, we congratulate Dr.
Dulaney upon his superb invention, and
hope that he may realize big fortune
as reward for his inventive genius.
