He claimed that the bills passed before the House went into committee of the whole and were not properly before the House. The House, however, refused to agree to his motion, so the bills stand passed. The House then went into committee of the whole (Mr. Peters of Kansas in the chair) on the federal election bill, ‘MR. M’ADOO OPPOSES THE ELECTIONS BILL. Mr. McAdoo (N.J.) took the floor and made & vigorous speech in opposition to the bill. He based his opposition on the principle of home rule anc the right of the people to control their own affairs without federal interference. He warned the republicans to beware of the experience of Walpole when prime minister of England. Storm after storm of protest ha been made against the excise bill which was pending in ~ par- liament, but the minister, strong in ‘his belict that he could withstand the people, de- clared he would not give way to the beggars, But finally the wave of indignation grew so reat that the people besieged parliament itself, exclaiming “Liberty! Liberty! No ex- cise.” And, finally, Walpole was forced to give up the bill, and, to save his own life, go out disguised in & cloak, shouting “Liberty! Lib- erty! No excise.” "He begged the republi- cans—he abjured them by their own sense of manliness—to abandon the bill before a storm went up of “Liberty! Liberty! No interfer- ence with election: ‘MR, M'COMAS ARGUES THE NECESSITY FOR A FED- ERAL ELECTION Law. Mr. McComas (Md.) reviewed the various election contests during the present Congress | to show the necessity for the passage of such a law. The democrats talked about the people as the fountain of power; and the gentleman from New Jersey (Mr. McAdoo) had talked a | great deal about home rule. He called | their attention to the condition | of affairs in Maryland as one of | many instances in which the powers were being taken from the people. The control of the schools and the appointment of school officers | had been wrested from the people and placed | in the hands of the judges of the courts. If there be oue thing the people could do for themselves it was tocontrol their own school affairs. The right to supervise the election of Judges of courts, of prosecuting attorneys and of sheriffs had been taken away from the people by the democratic party of Maryland, SOUTH CAROLINA METHODS. Mr. McComas having declared that the pro- vision that the inspectors might be taken from any part of the congressional district was | nothing new in South Carolina, Mr. Tillman declared that the law required the inspectors to belong to the same precinct of which they were inspectors, Mr. Rowell said that not only had supervisors to even the same county, but had been taken from one congressional to serve in another at the last election. Mr, Tiliman—Where is the law? Where is the law? There never has been such a law in force in my state. Mr. McComas—All the democrats of South Caroling are not like my friend. All of them do not go out and ire, Where is the law? They only look for the results.

The regular shift started in again this morning, and the brave but disheartened men are once more searching for an entry that will lead | them into the burning pit, The work is very dangerous, but the men will not abandon the search until they have accomplished their pur- pose and found their comrades or the fierce fire forces them to give up the task. The fire in the mine is burning with great fierceness and immense volumes of smoke aud flames are issuing from the mouth of the pit, The rescuers are visibly disheartened, but resolutely set to work digging iuto the ‘soli coal.
