The Measure to be Voted Upon in the House Today—Nebraskna Postmase ters' Salaries Readjusted — Miscellaneous. $T 513 FOURTRENTI STREET, WasniNetoy, D, C., July' 1. A caucus of the republican senators will shortly be held to determine what is to be dene with the fedoral election bill after it goes over from the house. It is very likely that the suggestion made by a number of re- publican senators to let the bill remain before the committee on privileges and elections until the next session will not prevail. While there are some conservative republicans who pelieve it will be better in the long run not to attempt for two or three sons to dispose of the measure at this session, others argue that it would be a show of weakness publicans, who have a ng majority, to take up the meas- ure simply because a number of democrats threaten to talk it to death, General Manderson of Nebraska is usually considered one of the republicans who know what i3 going on in the scnate and who occu- pies a conservative position beforoe that body. He said this afternoon of the outlook for the elections bill: “If the republicans in the senate conclude to let the measure go over until the mnext session it would be o frank acknowledgement that they fear the work of the democrats. It would be an announcement, to the country that a large and vigorous ma- jority fear a faiv and open contest with the minority. I think we shall take the bill, de- spite the threats of the democrats to talk all summer, and consider it in good faith and with a determination to get a vote upon it at the earliest possible d. I have no doubt that the democrats wil k upon the bill in- definitely with the determination to defeat i operations at least until after the forthcoming clections. There are a number of republi senators who opvose the measure on gene ciples and others who take exceptions to details. It is & question which should be considered 18 the wa I look at it. This may not be the time for the federal government to interpose its control over local elections, even though congressmen arc involved in the result. The federal gov- ernment, already has a_gencral supery over congressional elections, and the question is whether congress has not already gone as far as it should go. This same general ques- tion of policy arose when we were confronted with the condition of negro slavery. Thereis no doubt that, having given the negro the right of sui should YI'I)IL‘CL him in the exercise it and we should not flinch in rotecting the fra chise in all sections of the countr even though it should involve us in the most bt i s, However, this izd minded or honest c will attempt to gainsay the fact that the lot should bo protectéd everywhere. No, I do not belicve the senate will adopt any rule putting the bridle on dcbate, even to meet the emergency. W+ should haye one place atleast where debute is freoand full. As Senator Edmunds said the other day, if the minority wants toenterupon a game of phy cal endurance the majority can stay just as long as the minority and medt th climax bravely, T am ‘in favor of taking up the bill after the tariff and silver are out of the way and proceeding with its consider- ations as expeditiously as possible, If it v tostay here in- constant session fter the elections in order to ions bill, v surely stand it "Chis is a question of genc principle, and T do not think any republi senator will vote against the bill simply t does not meet his views as to detai pated, the contes the Lo lections bill is ve bse, but republic today which ty of WasnixGros BureAu Tie Ovata Bee, } ouly 6.

The action of the president in pro- moting Colonel Batchelder makes any predic- tion as to McFeely's Buccessor extremely doubtful, Colonel Dubarry and Licutenant Colonel John P. Hawkins arc said to havo the strongest backing fop the position, but it is possible that a candidate lower down in rank may be selected.
