THE BILL TO ADMIT DAKOTA. Under Consideration in the Senate INDIAN APPROPRIATION BILL. It Has the Right of Way in the House, ‘The Senate, ‘Mr. Coke was (at his own request) excused from further service on the committee on Indian trader- ships, and Mr, Faulkner was appointed in his stead. Among the petitions presented and referred was one from the St. Louts Turner Association against any legislation making admission of immigrants depend on the personal views of the immigrants, or that inight be construed so as tu contract or re- strict on, and asking that the law contract and pauper ‘immigration be stricly ene REPORTS PROM COMMITTEES. Among the bills reported from committees and placed on the calendar were the following: Authorizing the Président to Int and retire gio. G. Fretiont as majorsgeneral United States army. Appropriating $150,000 for quarters and barracks at branches of the nalional soldiers’ homes. Three bilis for lighthouses at Newport News, Fia.; Hol- ‘Middle Ground, Va.;' St. Ji ’s Point land Islands sapeake Bay. OFFICIAL REPORTS OF DEBATES ON THE FISHERIES TREATY. ‘Mr. Hoar offered a resolution (which wasreferred tothe committee on foreign relations) providing ‘nat the official reporter shall be admitted to re- port the debates and Ings of the Senate ‘when the fisheries treaty shall be under consider- ation; the report, or such part of it as may not Tequire secrecy, vo be publ if the Senate shall ‘80 order ‘THE DAKOTA BILL. ‘The Senate then resumed consideration of the Dili for the admission of the state of South Dakota, ‘and was addressea by Mr. Plumb in support of the Dil, In reg; to the challenge of Mr. Vest he instanced the ease of ‘Kansas and. California as territories which had changed their boundaries, It was, therefore, in nowise a tion of the Privileges of Congress for Dakota to divide ts ter Titory. There had been a good deal said about the undue _ representation the Senate of small stat such as Delaware, Rhode Island, Connecticut, and New Hampshire, but that was something which could not be got rid of, Decause the Constitution said that in that parti: cular there should be no change ex. cept with the consent of those states, The country had to rest under that INEQUALITY OF REPRESENTATION IN THE SENATE except there shouid be a revolution. In the mean- Ume, however, the inequality might be modified by such a proper division of the territories, or such limitation of boundaries of new states, as should give ‘o the interior and western portions of the country alarger share of representation in the Senate. At the election of a delegate in 1886, Dakota had cast 104,811 votes, The popu- lation of South Dakota was about two- thirds of the whole; so that the Voting population of the proj new state was about 80,000, He contrast the small votes in the Southern’ states with the vote of Dakota, and ‘sald that very few of them had cast as many votes at any election within the last five years as the ‘Territory of Dakota bad cast in 11 ‘If it was the uality of the people of Dakota that the Senator rom Missouri (Vest) objected to then he (Plumb) declared that ‘they were a fair representation of the Anglo-Saxon character on this Unent. They had been taken from more active and energetic portions of the the Northern, Eastern, Middle, and Western states. He had yet to learn that any man in Dakota had ever been deprived, by direction of indirection, of his right to vote, or that any candidate for Con- gress in Dakota had ever started out on his cam- rh With & twelve-pound piece of artillery. Rothing had ever occurred tm Dakota. tor which any her ‘citizens or any citizen of the United States had been called bs = to blush, No one quarreled with the ‘states of North Carolina or Vi1 decause they did not have institutions that gathered in the pop- ular will and give it ample reflex asin other states. ‘The Senator from Missouri was especially delighted with Ubeir companionship because he saw in it “assurance doubly sure” that thereby those states WOULD REMAIN DEMOCRATIC. Coming down to the state of Alabama he con- trasted the tables of taxation in that state to show that the assessed value of “guns, pistols and dirks” was four times greater than that of farm. ing tools and agricultural implements, And fie} he said, the Senator [rom Missiouri did not ob} to the representation of Alabama in the Senate or House of Representatives, but was willing to meet them on a pl ne of equally. ‘For himself be did not care as to tl politics of any of the territories applying for admission States, He ‘would vote. for” the - admission ee or Washington, democratic though wera. Hewould do so because he believed that the peace, the progress and the welfare of the republic. con- sisted, notin ube existence of territories to be governed from W: |, and not in the exist ence of colonies, which formed no int part of the great body of the American people in their gov- erning capacity. He believed ‘chat he, power and juity of the republic depended upon the ‘equal association of all the le of the United ‘States subdivided within the limits of the stat each one revolving in its own orbit, taking care of 4ts own local concerns, each contributing of tts advice, Its counsel, 1t8 wealth and its power to the progress of the United States in their national capacity. MR, ALLISON IN SUPPORT OF THE BILL. ‘Mr. Allison addressed the Senate in support of the bill, He did so, he said, because a good portion of Southern Dakota lay immediately west of the western boundary of his state: because three great lines of railway (having their eastern termi- nus) through Iowa und far into the interior of Dakota, and because a large number of the peo- of ’ Dakota had immigrated trom Iowa In_reply to the objections made ithe verritory of Dakota for ha en to split in two he cited the cases of ‘Michigan and Iowa, as well as those cited by Mr. Plumb—Kansas and California—as having done the same thing. He agreed with the Senator from Missouri (Vest) that the question was a political one, It was a political ‘THE ATTITUDE OP THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY in both houses on this subject was an attitude state; and he should be glad to vote at this ses- sion for the admission of North Dakota, ‘QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. ‘Mr. Vest asked him if he would vote now for a Dill admitting to statehood the whole Territory of Dakota, He (Vest) would.
