A FAMOUS DEBATE ON THE LIB.
ERTY OF THE PRESS
On the 9th of February. 1S47. whe

/ On the 9th of February, 1S47, when
we were pitting the american SOL
diers against the feeble Mexicans, Mr..
Thomas Richie, the editor of the
| Washington Union, was brought be-
fore the senate for the publication Of
an article signed "Vindicator," which
arraigned the senate quite severely,
and especially one of the senators
whose name is not given, but who
was known quite well at the time
One of the paragraphs of the offend
ing article was as follows:
I'm the senate yesterday the Mex
leans achieved another victory. The
! bill for organizing ten regiments of
regular troops having been submitted,
/ with its amendments, to a commit
| tee Of conference of the two houses,
| that committee unaniOmusly agreed
| on report which was submitted to
/ them for their approval. The house
/ of representatives at once adopted
| the report by a very large majority
| In the senate it was, in its most i'm
/ portant feature, rejected by a major
I fty of six When the result was as
! certained, a distinguished senator
| from Georgia exhibited the most
marked token of exultation. 1t is the
same senator who urges a withdrawal
/ of our army from the Mexican terri
tory"
This was on the 9Th. On the 18th
Senator Yulee of this state introduced
the two following resolutions:
1st. For the expulsion of the edi-
tor of the Union from the privileges
of the floor, for a libel upon the SEN
ate
End. For the expulsion of the edi-
tor of the Unions reporters from the
reporters gallery of the senate, for
an alleged partial report of the de-
bate in the senate.
These resolutions gave rise to an
important debate, in which Senators
Calhoun, Webster, Butler, Westcott,
Yulee, Mangum, Mason, Clayton,
Cass, Bright and Archer took part, and
in which in the next election the
rights of the press and of the senate
were fully discussed.
The second resolution was with
drawn, but the first resolution was
adopted by a vote of twenty-seven to
twenty-One.
But it will be here seen that the
censure was only an expulsion from
the privileges of the floor, which did |
not extend to the reporters of the pa /
per, and the paper was printed with
in the District of Columbia.
1t was in this famous debate that /
Senator Westcott of this state said:
IF the people of this country knew I.
One-twentieth part of the corruptiOns, |
the peculent, the reeking, filthy cor
ruptions of the government, they |
would descend in a body upon this
city. create a revolution in less than
twenty-four hours, and fall upon the
president, heads of departments, con-
gress, wings and democrats, and turn
them head over heels into the POtO-
mac river"
So the cry of corruption is no new
thing.
Senator Westcott was the last of
our statesmen who wore a queue,
which he religiously kept up as long
as he lived He also wore the famous
knee breeches and big silver buckles
His history was a romantic one. He
left his seat in the senate before his
term Of Office expired, disappeared
and never returned to the state.
He died in Canada during our civil
war.

STOCKHQLDER WANTS
TEMPORARY RECEIVER
Arguments in United States Ex-
press Company Case.

New York, June 4.-Supreme Jus.
ttce Guy heard arguments and re.
served decision on the application of
John l.. Dudley, stakeholder in the
United States Express company, for
the appointment of temporary re-
ceiver for that corporation. Counsel
for Dudley told the court that the in
solvency of the company was not
claimed. On the contrary, the COM
pany apparently had few debts and
ample assets. The trouble was, he
said, that the shareholders had no
voice In the management and were
seeking a means through which such
voice might be acquired. He assert
ed that officials of the company, to
the detriment of the United States
Express company, had diverted bust
ness of that company to- other ex-
press companies through agreements
with such companies.
General denial of the charges was
made by ex-Judge Morgan J. O'Brien,
counsel for the company, who submit
ted aftidavits by the president, ex-
United States Senator Thomas c.
Platt, and by other officers of the
company.
Senator Plat, in his affidavit, de-
clared the charges of conspiracy in
the complaint to be without founda-
ton and asserted that the company
had at all times been managed for
the best interests of the shareholders.
The salaries received by the officers
reasonable.

or in the lodge room. It is the
intention of the committee to invite
the city officials, members Of the G.
A. R. and the Circle, Company K,
and in fact all patriotic citizens of
Bemidji, this being the sentiment
expressed at last nights meeting of
the Elks.
The Elks' meeting held last
night resulted in placing three new
brethren on the roster, they being
w. w. Brown, A. B. Hazen and
George Furcht, all of Bemidji.

JEFF DAVIS MEMORIAL PARK
Old Homestead in Kentucky Opened
to the Public.


Fairview, KY, June 4.-Among the
trees which have grown up about the
birthplace of Jefferson Davis since the
year, early in the Nineteenth century,
when the Davis family removed to
Mississippi, the Jeff Davis Memorial
park was simply dedicated here. !

brigade" met in Glasgow, KY, at the
grave of General Joseph H. Lewis,
former Governor Governor Bolivar
Buckner of Kentucky, their comman-
der, preached the plan Of the Jeffer-

scriptions were started, the women of
the South aiding, and when all but

seventeen acres at Fairview General
Bennett H. Young, commanding the
Kentucky division, United Confeder-

made the memorial possible. -

SITUATION MORE SERIOUS

Latest Branch to Become Affected
Has Been Of Great Aid in Handling
Traffic Since WaIkout on Surface
Lines-Nonunion Employees Taken
From Cars in Several Localities and
Badly Beaten.
Philadelphia, June 4-The elevated
and subway system of the Philadel-

sixth street station. Here the crew
deserted and the car was run to the
Sixty-ninth street terminal by men
sent out from that point. Subse-
Quently other crews deserted their
trains at the Sixty-ninth street ter
minal. The companys officials would
not discuss the situation, but the
ticket windows were closed and the
crowds on the platforms took to the
streets.
G.. O. Pratt, the strike leader, all"
nounced that IS per cent Of the serv-
ice on the elevated and subway sys-
TEN is tied up. The company claims
there is no strike; that a few crews
quit and their places were filled. 1t

stopped work returned to their trains
when assured of protection. They are
said to have quit because they were
afraid of violence. Ample police pro-
lection now accompanies each train.

make a neat, interesting play and
