The report having been read, the bill was temporarily laid over. Senate bill to authorize the leasing of school lands in Oklahoma was reported by Mr. Plumb, who gave notice that he would ask action on it today. THR AGRICULTURAL APPROPRIATION BILL. was taken up. There are but few amendments reported from the committee on appropriations, the only one ofany interest being the striking out of an item of 25.000 for the use of portions of the Arlington estate as an experimental sta- tion and farm, All tne con:mittee amendments having been agreed to Mr. Reagan moved to amend the item appropriating $50,000 for sugar culture experiments by requiring €25,000 of that amout to be expended in Texas. Mr. Allison suggested to Mr. Reagan that if ‘Texas were to get one-half of the appropria- tion the other half ought to go to Iowa, as those two states represented about the two ex- tremes of climate where sorghum can be cul- tivated successfully. Mr. Gibson spoke of the successful r-sults that have attended sugar culture experiments in Louisiana with the aid of the Agricultural Department. Atter some discussion Mr. Reagan's amendment was re- jected. Mr. Coke moved to amend the erie” eg ap- propriating #25,000 for investigating the his- tory and habits of insects by increasing the appropriation 2,500 and directing that amount to be expended in investigations into the natural history and remedies for the cotton bali worm. Agreed to. Mr. Mitchell moved an amendment requiring $5,000 of the $25,000 appropriated for experi- ments in sericulture to be expended in collect- ing further information relative to the wild native silk worm of California and developing the use and value of its silk product. Rejected. THE BILL PASSED. The bill was then passed. THE LEGISLATIVE, ETC., APPROPRIATION BILL, A further conference was ordered on the legislative appropriation bill, after a state- ment by Mr. Dawes that one of the matters on which the committee had not been able to agree was the amendment to pay Seuators’ clerks’ $1,800 a year instead of $6 a day for the session, HOUSE. Mr. Breckinridge of Kentucky presented the credentials of W. W. Dickerson as a Repre- sentative-elect from the sixth congressional district of Kentucky to fill the vacancy occa- sioned by the resignation of Mr. Carlisle. Mr, Dickerson appeared at the bar of the House and took the oath of office. ‘MR, HERBERT ON THE RECONSTRUCTION ERA. The debate on the federal election bill was then resumed, Mr. Herbert (Ala.) being accorded the floor. There was one chapter in the history of the country, he said, so full of bitter memories that every American citizen would — gladly forget it if he could. It was the era of recon- struction, But it was necessury to look iuto that chapter and learn some of the lessons it taught. The passions of the war had been still frosh, and the people of the north had ben driven to approve the reconstruction legislation by just such speeches as had been made here in advocacy of this bill. ‘The result bad been that all the reconstruction governments (except Virginia) had passed under negro domination, The taxes had been in- creased and every dollar of the increase had been spent or stolen, THE COLOR LINE had been the inevitable result of the recon- struction laws and the manner of their admin- istration. The negro had been tanght to dis- trust the southern white man, and during the reconstruction period the southern states bad been represented in Congress by re- publicans, Now they were = repre- sented by democrats, and hence the necessity for @ national election law. In the south the era of peace and prosperity hud come, The negro was learning that it was not for his interest to array himself solidly against the white man; and the white man was doi nro in his power to teach the negro this lesson, Jf the south were allowed to work out the problem for itself the time would soon come when the negro, being educated as the white ™man was, would be able to take care of him- self both asa tax payer and asacitizen. This bill would have the effect of arraying race againt race in the south, WHY MR. HOUK FAVORED A NATIONAL ELECTION Law. Mr. Houk (Tenn.) said that his advocacy of @ national election law did not grow out of any supposed emergency or necessity, notwith- ee ee A TWO CENTS. the second district of Tennessee would confine the rs within the walls of the peni- tentiary ngersplistening to this debate might think that the object of the measure was to arrest the whole democratic party, What harm would a federal election law di WHAT HARM WOULD RESULT from an honest election? Had the democrats from the south practised dishonest elections 80 long that they would break their hearts to have tostop them? He then proceeded to quote from the report made by Mr, Springer (IL) from the committee on elections in the Forty-fifth Congress in the contested case of Dean against Field, in which he asserted that Mr. Springer laid down the exact principle in- volved in the pending bill, namely that the laws of covery state of the Union should con- form to the law of the land. It was said that the bili would revive race prejudice. He under- took to say that there was no ra rejndice imvolved = in_— this _ bill. t was not race prejudice that the democrats were combatting; it was political prejudice. The objection was not that the colored man was black, but that he voted the republican ticket. He wanted this government to be sq strong that it could reach out its hand and punish every crime against the rights of the nation. A REPUBLICAN WHO OPPOSES THE BILI. Mr. Coleman (La) announced himself asa republican both from conviction and from prin- ciple; asa southern man by birth, education and association. He had been elected to the House as a republican, but he was opposed to the enactment of a federal election law at this time, and, notwithstanding the fact that the promoters of this meas- ure aimed to secure the great desideratum of a free ballot anda fair count. He did not think that this was the proper time to make this political experiment. He would heartily support a national election bill if he thought that its enactment would secure au honest bul- lot, but the supposition that the passage of such a measure at this time would have this ef- fect was based on false impressions and on an ignorance of the truc state of affairs in sous portions of the south. Why should the mem- ories of the reconstruction period be stirred up? NOT IN LINCOLN’S FOOTSTEPS. This was not following the advice of that wonderful statesman, Abraham Lincoln, He opposed any legislation calculated to create trouble and friction between the races. He did not wish to stimulate any trouble, and be was as certain that trouble and bloodshed would follow the enactment of the legislation, and that the law would fail in its purpose, as he was that he would vote against it in this House. He wanted peace, progress and prosperity. He wanted to see continue and increase the in- dustrial development in the south. A federal election law would be an expensive political blunder. The public money could be used to greater advantage in paying the honest claims | of the people of the south in reimbursing the depositors in the Freedmau's Savings and Trust Company; in constructing lev sissippi river, and in educating the children of the south, black as well «as white. He wanted to see the solidity of the south broken, and there were sigus of disintegration in the democratic party of the south, Pass a federal election law and the men now ready to separate from the democratic party would get back into what they were told was the white man’s party rather than risk negro supremacy. In conclu- sion, he appealed to the House to listen to the words of Grant, the soldier and the patriot, “Let us have peace.” A KENTUCKIAN WHO FAVORS A PREF BALLOT. Mr. Finley (Ky.) spoke in support of the measure because it granted to the bumblest individual north, south, east and west, the fullest right to go to the polls, cast his vote aud have it honestly counted. He did not understand how the bill was to arouse mali- ciousness on the part of southern democrats, Did they intend to bring bloodshed upon the country if this law was enforced? Did they im- tend at this day to bully avybody, to scare anybody, to intimidate anybody? The time for that had passed. Instend of kicking up a row and arousing the feelings of the American people gentlemen who wanted pure elections should unite upon this measure aud eliminate politics from it, WHY THIS CRUSADE? Mr. Turner (Ga.) inquired what the situation was which invited this new crusade against his section. In # time of profound peace, when the business interests of this country were cement- ing together in the bonds of brotherhood alienated peoples, when northern capital and enterprise were finding safe investments in the south, when, by pecaied processes, the people lately engaged in war were again to be reunited in the bonds of fraternity and peace, what excuse was there for kindling again the fires of political persecution? BE POINTED OUT THE DANGERS which he considered would arise from the ad- ministration of the law, When the next Congress met the country would be placed under a strain not paralleled since the days of the disputed presidential count. The people would not trust in the de- cisions of partisan returning boards. They might submit, as they had submitted before, but. according to the traditions of liberty, ac- cording to the maxims which had governed the Anglo-Saxon race, this effort was fraught with peril. It might ‘be statesmanship, but it was the statesmanship of Guy Fawkes and ought to be rebuked by the whole country. MR, WADDILL SAYS IT IS THE SAME OLD SOUTHERN CRY TO BE LEFT ALONE. Mr. Waddill (Va.) said that if the bill would do only a small extent of what its supporters claimed for it it wasa bill which should be hailed with delight by all men. The cry of the southern men that left alone was the same cry that was made in 1861. He warned them thatnullification of the colored vote and of the Constitution in 1890 might do for them what — secession did in 1861, and that the white republicans of the south would not submit to tS ruled b; force, The supervisors system, he declare was the only show for honest elections in the south, There had been more election frauds in his state since 1883 than in all the years before that time. It wi ed who demanded this bill. The frauds in Virginia at the last election demunded it; the wronged people of the north whose voices were husied here de- manded it; the innocent blood of Jno, M. Clay- ton cried aloud from the grave and demanded it. Mr. Tracey (N.Y.) earnestly opposed the measure, which he declared thet ‘ne patriotic man could vote for. Mr. Outhwaite (Ohio) in opposing the mens- ure, said that one of the features of it was the construction of a political machine to control the representatives of the entire south in the next oe national presidential conven- tion. The bill was intended to promote the industry of making contested election cases. Mr. Hopkins (IL) favored the bill. ———_—soo- THE PHILADELPHIA’S SPEED.

No more ceremouious or memorable event has ever transpired im the history of the church am America, The most distinguished preiates im the gountry attended, with Cardinal Gibbons at their head, and the ceremonies were to the last degree soicmn and impressive. All the may nt accessories that pertain to the more important ritual of the clurch were present, Thousands of the faithtul in this city, and from other cities as well, filled every foot of room and left crowds upon the street outside of the sacred editice. At 5:30 o'clock this morning the consecration service took ; uce, The procession, which formed at iuat hour, made the cir- cuit of the cathedral, the archbishop sprinkling the walis with holy water.
