2000 or less and that the rate of taxation on circulating notes secured by deposit of bonds be reduced to one half of one percent per annum also that banks be per- ¬ mitted to issue circulating notes to the par value of the refund ¬ ing bonds deposited b3 them in thcr treasury and further that banks be allowed to deposit as security with the treasury greenbacks treasury notes or silver

silver certificates to the amount of 50 per cent of their capital tbey shall be permitted to issue bank notes in addition to the 50 per cent thus provided to the extent of 25 per cent for which the

designated as the issue and redemption division in which is to be deposited 125000000 in gold to be used only for redemption purposes and all silver now held in the treasury for re- ¬ demption purposes and also all silver bought under the act of 1S90 He further recommends that the sum of 200000 000 in United States legal tender notes be also deposited in this division to be disbursed therefrom onty upon the re- ¬ ceipt of gold It is also recommended that provision be made for the issue of ¬ to cringing about a conference of those members favor in o- a change in the present civil service system The paper was handled by Representative Pearson of North Carolina and received numerous signa- ¬ tures The purpose it is understood is to make the conference non political in character and to extend it outside of the membershin of thp mvil sorripo committee as some of the men most active m urging a revision of the law are not on this committee Gen Gros venor of Ohio is among these He approved the plan of a conference of those interested in the subject and it is likely to be held at an early day The indications are that the holiday recess of congress will extend from Saturday December IS to Monday or Tuesday January 3 or 4 Speaker Reed is understood to favor these dates If however any important business developes in the senate or house the recess will propably be post- ¬ poned into Christmas week So far as the house is concerned no general ¬ -a m j i j legislation will be ready for considera tion before the holidays and work is likely to be confined to the appropriation bills It is stated by those in a position to know that the reason the Hawaiian treaty is not pushed in the senate is because the friends of the measure have grave doubts as to their ability to secure the necessary two thirds vote to pass it The impression prevails that ¬ ¬ it may olution and annex the islands by legislation It has been found that a num ber of senators who were confidently counted for the treaty are against it while others have expressed doubts abouty hasty action Washington Dec 9 The house committee on invalid pensions met Wed- ¬ nesday and took action that is intended to correct the alleged rapidly grow ing abuse of young women marrying old soldiers and sailors for the purpose of becoming their widows and draw ¬ ing a pension from the government This subject has been much dis- ¬ cussed in iew of the comparatively large number of widow claimants on account of the revolutionary war of 1812 and Mexican war service of husbands The committee authorized Chairman Bay to obtain from the committee on rules an order or rule permitting an amendment to the pension appropriation bill providing that no pension shall hereafter be granted to the widow of a soldier or a person after the passage of this act excepting however all soldiers sailors officers etc now in or who may hereafter enter the militar or naval service of the United States ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬

During the session Tuesday 108 bills many of which were private pension measures were introduced in addition to several joint resolutions and some senate resolutions An interesting contest for precedence in consideration between Mr Lodges immigration bill and the proposed leg- ¬ islation to confer authority upon the president to act for the protection of the governments in- ¬ terest at the sale of the Kansas Pacific rail- ¬ road was pending at the close of the ses- ¬ sion The probability is that it will be amica- ¬ bly arranged before the senate convenes Wed nesday Mr H De S Money of Mississippi was introduced and after some brief criticism of the form of his credentials the oath of office was administered to him Mr Money wasfas signed to the seat formerly occupied by Mr Daniel of Virginia the latter securing the seat in the center of the democratic side which was occupied by the late Senator George House The session of the house Tuesday though it lasted but two hours witnessed a lively skirmish over the question of distribut ¬ ing the presidents message to the various com- ¬ mittees clothed with jurisdiction over the sub- ¬ jects dealt with The conflict of authority came between the ways and means committee and the banking and currency committee The battle raged all along the line Dur- ¬ ing the debate Gen Grosvenor of Ohio fired the first gun against the civil service law and this also brought the friends and enemies of into that measure action Mr Johnson of Indiana in a ringing warning declared that if a bill to emasculate the civil service law were passed it would meet the presidential veto Eventually Mr Dingley in deference to the opposition of the members of the banking and currency commit- ¬ tee agreed to a modification of the order dis- ¬ tribution so as to send to the ways and means committee all matters relating to the rev- ¬ enues the bonded debt of the country and the treaties affecting the revenues The resolu- ¬ tion was then adopted Washington Dec 9 Wednesdays session of the senate occupied less than an hour the time principally being consumed by members in presentation of memorials resolutions and bills A resolution presented by Mr Allen pop Neb declaring it to be the sense of tho senate that the United States should recognize the political independence of Cuba was made the subject of some remarks by the Nebraska senator in course of which he criticised the president for not carrying into effect the pledge of the republican party made in its last na- ¬ tional platform to recognize the independence of the Cuban republic At the conclusion of Mr Allens remarks the senate by resolution of Mr Hoar Mass adjourned as a mark of respect to the memory of the lato Ashley B Wright one of the members of the house of representatives from Massachusetts House The session of the house Wednesday lasted only 15 minutes Mr W A Stone rep Pa reported the pension appropriation bill the first of the appropriation bills and gave notice that he would call it up immediately after the reading of the journal Thursday The committee on election and the committee on banking and currency were given leave to sit during the session of the house Then at 1213 the house adjourned Infantile Wisdom None So Good as Star Tobacco The consumption of Star plug tobacco is the largest in the world No other tobaccq is so good as Star

and cultivate sufficiently to give a good crop and shun that which will do more Soil and situation will determine largely whether sod or cultivated may be best Catarrh Caasot Be Cured with Local

dairyman can keep just as many extra cows as he wishes Concerning the interior arrangement of such a barn I suggest that a feed car with a track be arranged for the feed Hoar and the feeding alley in front of the cows as represented by the dotted lines in the diagram It also might not be out of place at all to have a double silo grain room and calf pens with lofts over them occupy one side of the barn proper while calf pens and SILO i a hay bay occupy the other side as are likewise shown In this way the main barn can be utilized chiefly for the stor- ¬ ing of feed while the wings are given up
