There is one good result of the war scare with England. It is bringing around a closer union of the north and south and fully dem- onstrates that we are one union, one flag, one country and one pleople. The biggest sensation this coun- try has had since 1561 was the spec- ial message on the Venezulan con- troversy sent to congress by presi dent Cleveland last week. An earth- quake couid not have caused a great- er consternation among the people. President Cleveland found time to take a duck hunt of a week in North Carolina, return to Washington and send two messages to congress be- fore the organization of congress by! Czar Reed. Yet the republicans say put us in power and we will show you how to run the government. The populist party has gone out of business in New Yorkstate. The official figures of the last election only gives the party a@ little over 9,000 votes in the states which |would take, if it was given the op- last evening. It was patent to every Senator, Mr. Dubois said, and should the President's desire for the retire- ment of the greenbacks, or the au- thorization of a bond issue, were utterly impossible of accomplish ment. The only action the Senate portunity to vote, he said, would be to adopt the resolution of Mr. Vest of Missouri, offered earlier in the day, directing the coinage of silver bullion in the Treasury and the pay- ment of government obligations in silver. The only immediate response to the President's message was in the presentation of the two resolu- tions favorable to silver, one by Mr. Vest and another by Mr. Butler, the new Populist member from North Carolina, proposing gold payments while the metals were at a parity to a premium. The first response came in the form of a resolution offered by Mr. Vest of Missouri, as follows: Resolved, That the Secretary of the Treasury is hereby directed, in pursuance of the existing law vest- ing in him full power to do so, to coin as rapidly as possible the silver bullion in the Treasury purchased being less than one per cent of the vote candidates could not get their names on the ofiicial ballot except by petition. In the organization of the house Judge DeArmond is placed upon three important committees, judici- ary, education and election. No state or district in the union has a more faithful or conscientious repre- sentative than Judge DeArmond and the trust imposed by placing him on these committees will be jealously guarded. Columbia, Mo, Dec. 21.—The senior law elass of the State univer- sity has decided that it does not want an address by Colonel Robert G. Ingersoll at its next commence- ment. It was a general surprise, as under the act of July 4, 1890 into standard silver dollars, and with such dollars to redeem, cancel and retire the treasury notes of the United States of July 14, 1890, issu- ed in the purchase of such bullion, and also to redeem the United States notes commonly called greenbacks in standard silyer dollars, as well as in gold, using whichever may be most abundant and convenient. Mr. Vest asked immediate consid eration of the resolution, but Mr Platt of Conneticut objected and the subject went over. “I am greatly surprised,” said Mr. Cockrell of Missouri, “that such a resolution should meet with objec. tion.” Mr. Butler soon brought forward the subject in another form by asking immediate consideration |be understood by the country, that | and silver payments when gold went | | | j | it had been announced a few days|for a resolution directing the Secre ago that the class was confident of|tary of the Treasury to pay govern securing from the faculty an invita-}ment obligations in gold when the tion for him to address the students.

He will also send to the fiscal agent a draft $101,095 to pay semi-annual interest due January 1, on the bond- parity of the metals stood at 25 8 10 grains of gold for 412) grains of si'ver, and to pay in silver when this parity was disturbed by the advance in the value of gold. Mr. Platt agaiuZobjected and, at 1 o'clock, the Senate went into ex- ecutive sersion. ed debt of the state. The redemp- tion of bonds to be made on Jan. 1, 1896, will reduce the state debt to $5,434,000, only $348,000 of which bear 6 per cent interest, the remain- der the low rate of 3} percent. This is a splendid showing for the state finances. Senator Hill, of New York intro- duced a bill in the senate the other day for the repeal of the law impos- ing disabilities on those who served on the side of the south in the late war, and asked its immediate pas sage. This afforded the republicans a splendid opportunity to display their magnanimity toward the south- ern soldiery, aud drive out sectiona annimosities. The bill would prob ably have passed but for the inter- ference of the wooden nut meg ped- dler senator Platt, of Conneticut, | ; who objected, by saying there was no immediate haste,and there might KNOW LEDGE Brings comfort and improvement and tends to peroneal enjoyment when rightly used.

This action wes the culmination} ofa debate adding a memorable page to congressional history. It wasa day of notable speeches by notable men. The subject of war between the United States and Great Britian was the prevailing theme, | which found expression in lofty patriotic sentiments, in stirring ap- peals for preparation and defense in graphic portrayals of the horrors of war, and at times in defiant warn- ings to the people across the water. By a singular coincidence, the ses- | sion which was to be marked by| such vigorous debate and action} was opened by an invocation of classic beauty from the blind chap- lain of the senate, breathing the | spirit of good will between the two} | prominent English speaking nations. | This was speedily followed by the adoption of Mr. Allen’s somewhat laconic resolution calling on the} finance committee to investigate the needs of the unlimited coinage of silver. Shortly before 4 o'clock Mr. Mor-| gan unexpectedly withdrew the amendments to the bill, leaving it in its original form. There was no de- mand for a roll-call, as the sentiment of the senate was clearly a unit, and by a loud viva voce vote the bill was passed without a dissenting vote. This completed the legislative enact- ment of the measure, which, with the signature of the president, has the full force and effect of alaw. | Nothing Small About St. Louis, Washington, D. C., Dec. 20.—St. Louis is early in the tight for the democratic national convention, as well as the republican. Represent- ative Cobb left for home to-day to attend the meeting of the business men’s association of St. Louis Mon- day next, which will appoint a com mittee to confer with the national committee January 16 in this city. Senator Vest has already started West to be present also at Monday’s meeting. The committee from St. Louis will open headquarters in this city January 14. It will be non-} partisan politically and will include a duzen or moreof St. Louis’ most prominent business men. The Mis- souri members of congress are con- fident that this committee wiil be successful. The same tactics which were pursued with the republicans will be again employed with the democrats | ‘ eee Cleveiand Did It. Washington, D.
