Congressional opinions on the republican ticket are governed largely by the politics of tne Con- greesman, Republicans generally praise the ticket for its strength and predict its election, while emocrats pronounce it weak and say it will be defeated, Representative Bynum, of Indiana, sald: “It 13 the best nomination the republican party could have made under the circumstances.” Mr. Bynum adds thai “Gen. Harrison isa clean man, with a good record, and in the end nig nomination, I think, will prove satisfactory to his party in the State. I think, however,” added Mr. Bynum, that the democratic majority in Indiana will be as great in November as if Harrison were not on the Uoket.” resentative Browne, of Will be nominated for gov— €rnor, ahd with Harrison will carry the state, I have ho doubt ot republican success in tue presi- dential campaign.” ‘Senator Turple (dem), of says 4s no stronger in bat state than bis party, Col. Dick Bright SRY¥ the Bane. He say¥r“we have oni to get out our Vote to Beat him, aiid we UL do Mt.” rison’s nomination makes Indiana doubly ure, Said Mr. White, republican, of that, state, “ ‘undoubtedly the strongest republican in the stave, “His eminence in the state will mace humm strong as a national candidate, and with hin as President we will. bave no 3) or expla- nations to make.” Conran Postmaster Dalton, of the House, another In- Giana democratic leader, said: “We will beat Harrison us we did in 1876 for governor. Blue Jeans Williams beat him nearly 7,000, and” Harri- ‘gon has certainly done nothing to commend bim- Self to democrats of Indiana or of the country. He ‘Will get no democratic support.” ‘The democrats are disposed to make capttal out of Gen, Harrison’s alieged opposition to lezisla- Yon to exclude the Chinese, and they refer to a declaration made by Eaitor De Young, of the San Francisco Chronicle, at Chicago, that Harrison could not carry tue Pacifte states, On this subject Senator Mitchell, of Oregon, ‘says: “here will be no objection 10 Hurrigon in Oregon on that score.

LAND BILL IN THE SENATE. —_———. ‘The Senate, ‘Mr. Plumb gave notice of an amendment to the sundry civil appropriation bill, providing that there shall not be purchased for the use of uational soldiers’ homes any material or supplies the re- ‘sult of convict Iavor, ‘THE LEGISLATIVE, ETC., APPROPRIATION BILL. On motion of Mr. Allison, the Senate proceeded to the consideration of the legisiative, executive ‘and Judicial appropriation DILL Nominations To-day, The President bas sent the following nomins- tons to the Senate: Oscar E. Rea, of Dakota, to be register at the land office at Bismarck, Dak Wm. D. Myers, of Missouri, to be agent for the In- (ians of the Kiowa, Comanche and’ Wichita agency in the Indiin ‘Territory. John Henry Haynes, a citizen of te United States, to be con- sul of the United States at Bagdad. Mouse of Representatives, On motion of Mr. Crisp, of Georgia, the House Tefused to concur in the Senate amendments to the Natchez, Miss, bridge bill, and asked for a conference. THE PUBLIO LAND BILL. The House then resumed consideration of the public land bill by sections for amendment. Most of the amendments which were adopted Were in the nature of corrections of the pirase- ology Of tne bill, Mr. Hermann (Oreg.), offered one, however, which was uccepted, allowing entryinen six in: steud of three months in which to erect a habita- ble dwelling. ‘There Was a long discussion over an amendment offered by Mr. Weaver (lowa), reserving title in the Government to alteruate strips uf public land along water-courses and tue seasuore, air. Meadoo (N. J.) earnestly favored the amend- ment, and deprecated What he casled the system Qt control exercised over thousands of acres by Engitsn sportsiuen by securing access to the rater, Mr. Herbert (Ala.) opposed the amendment, be. cause it. was: Le pan in operation to the arid lands of the West, 4 SHARP DISCUSSION AS TO THIEVES. ‘Mr. Laird (Neb, indignantly resented the attacks which bad been made on the cattle breeders and Other Western citizens. He said they were beld up to the pubiic as were the thieves on the cross, only there Were three instead of two ol them—the set- Uers Were tuleves, the cattle-men Were tuleves, and the syndicates were tuleves., Mr. Weaver (lowa) re] that the thieves on ‘the cross repented, and these people did not. Mr. Laird retorted that they did not repent, for they did not adrtt that they Were Unleves, Mr, Weaver Wanted to know what ailled Mr, Laird; was it worms? but the gentieman made cific coast 43 that of auy otker public man east o1 toe Kocky Moustains, None of the party ieaders: Of either party in the East were as radical on the question as our people.” Senator Dolpi says that in Oregon the Chinese question 1s not of so much importance as in the Pust. He says there are many men Wno op- posed anti-Chinese legisiation, but have changed Ubelr views, and Harrison ts one of them, He says. the Pacific slope will support the repubitcan ticket. ————+ee.
