PLAYING FOR VOTES. House Republicans Pass the Filley Election Measure. Jefferson City, Mo, April 25.— Not a cog was slipped. Everything went exactly as the “old man” had planned it. As was anticipated, his famous election bill was engrossed today in the House, and after an all-day debate was passed by his disciples in truly Filley style. Asa consequence the Republican House members are to-night stepping in high places only, and boasting that now the responsibility of an election Jaw rests entirely with the Senate. As a matter of fact this greased plane policy means nothing more nor less than a big amount of politi- cal buncomb, and the point that the House beat the Senate by twenty- four hours at least in passing an election bill is merely laughed at by the old wheel horses. It was nearly 1 o'clock when the House took up the bill and ordered it to be engrossed. The question was then to devise means of keeping the House together until the en- grossing clerks could pretend to engross it. This small matter of engrossment was attended to a week ago by Clerk Griffin. But an hour or so had to be killed in order to give the appearance of engrossment. Now this present House is very fortunate when it has some time at its disposal in having Colonel Crisp on the floor. He is one of the excit- able animals that needs but a prod or two to stir him up, and when this was done to day the time to be killed was as good as dead. He talked. It was nearly 4 o'clock when the bill was put upon its final pas- sage. This gave Moran of St. Joseph, an ex-Democrat, but now a Republican, a chance to make a speech. This he did in his usual blustering style. At exactly 6 o'clock, all the speak- ing being finished, it was thought everything was ready for a vote. The Democrats insisted that the measure be read at length. It is eighty-nine pages in length. All things have to come to an end, how- ever, and at 7 o'clock to-night, by a vote of 76 to 39, Chauncey I. Filley’s election bill passed the House amid the cheers of the followers of the old man. Last night in caucus the House Republicans were very brave in passing a resolution for the appoint- ment of a committee of five to in- vestigate into the carrying of passes by State officers and House mem- bers. When it came to the actual passage of the resolution, late this morning, they did as was expected and referred the entire matter to the committee on criminal juris. prudence. Here this interesting piece of buncomb will undoubtedly sleep. The House adjourned until 10 o'clock to morrow. Dr. Sawyer’s Family Cure is the result of experience, skill and honesty.

HOUSE CAUCUS. Jefferson City, Mo., April 24.— The House Republicans held a aecret caucus tonight. A resolution was adopted to pass the Filley etection bill tomorrow and then to sit and not consider any other leg islation until the Senate has passed the same bill and it has become a law by receiving the Goyernor’s sig- nature. In addition to determining | | } caacus decided to ainieiek « a anes tee of five tomorrow to investigate | jand determine who were riding on passes, beginning with the State of- ficers first.

Chicago, Ill, Aptil 24 —It is now war to the kuife between the sound money aud silver factions of the democratic party in Cock county. The honest money league. at a full meeting of the executive committee this afternoon, issued an address in the shape of a resolution to the democratie voters of Chicago and Cook county appealing to them to abstain from participation in the primaries to be held May 3 and to entirely ignore whatever action the state convention, to be held in June, may take upon the money question. The league will hold a monscer mass meeting on the night of May 3 to voice the protest of the honest money democrats. Every effort will be made to discredit the alleged representative authority of the silver delegation to Springfield. In other words, the silver democrats are to be read out of the democratic party. This radical action of the honest money league was finally adopted by the unanimous vote of the members of the executive committee. The| discussion lasted for nearly two hours. It was argued that it would be useless to make 4 contest for del- egates to Springfield, as the silver machine had arranged for brace primaries, and had in reality already selected the delegates to be sent from every ward. The committee therefore decided to deny the legali- ty of the calls for the state and county conventions and advise sound money democrats to take no part in either. Signatures to the honest money declaration of principles are coming into headquarters at the rate of 500 a day. How Missouri Legislators Stand. Sedalia, Mo, April 24—The “Evening Democrat’ to day prints answers from seventeen Senators and sixty Representatives of the Missouri Legislature, in reply to the query: “Are you in favor of the free coinage of silver by the United States at the present ratio?’ Of the Senators, five Repubiicans and sey- en Democrats answer in the affirma- tive, while four Republicans reply in the negative. Senater F. W. Mott, of St. Louis, evades the question, viz: “Ihave not given sufficient attention to the matter to express an opinion for publication. As a Republican, I am in favor of a dollar that is worth anywhere and every- where 10Uc." Of the sixty Repre- sentatives seventeen Republicans, | twenty four Democrats and two Populists favor the proposition, while fourteen Republicans oppose it.. Representative Miller, Republi | can of Miller County, says that he is | not able to answer the question to his own satisfaction at this time. The Democratic Representatives who oppose free coinage are Gill, of | Clay County, and Kyler,of St. Louis. The Democratic Senators who re- plied to the query are unanimous! for free coinage. To Pay Every Half Month. Jefferson City, Mo., April 24— State Treasurer Lon V. Stephens may play an important part in de-! eiding the date of adjournment sine die.
