Laxcorx, Neb., March 25, —[Special to Tne B, |—Tho senato in committeo of the whole discussod the eght hour labor bill, No. 104, which came from the house. The measure narrowly escaped an unfavorable report. It was loaded down with amendments and one of these deprived it of its governing feature. Senator Shumway’s amendment provided that the bill should not apply to clerks in mercantile houses, who expected to work wmore than eight hours, Senator Schram said that the clauso which kept the law from applying to farm hands discriminated against the farmer. 1t would drive the best men from the farm and into the citles where, on public improvemonts, they could get as much for eight hours’ work 4 they could on the farm for fifteen, Senator Moore wanted ex-empted people who worked under monthly agreements.

Kootz and Fraudulent Subscriptions. Laxcory, Neb., March 25, —[Special to Tas Bee.|—Senator Day’s bill No. 131, regulat- ing subscriptions to nowspapers and othor periodicals, provoked some discussion this sfterncon. The senator explained that farm- ers were constantly receiving publications of all kinds which they had not ordered, only to find later that they were compelled to pay for the same, Seonator Mattes said farmers had one means 10 break up this practico and that was ado- quato-namely to inform the postmaster that they would not receive such publications. The postmaster would then notify the pub- lisher of the fact. If, however, they oon- tinued to take out the publications in ques- tion, they were held respousible for the same under the United States postal laws. With these laws, the bill wasin conflict and he ‘was opposed to it. The bill, however, was recommended for passago.

Wasiixeroy, March 25. — The census bureau has in preparation a bulletin giving the population of the south Atlantic and south central states. Missouri and Kansas are included. Tho total population embraced in thiscount is given as 23,8752 of which 16,868,205 are white, 6,096,166 colored and 1,058 Chinese, Japanese and Indians. In the states included were found in 1890 fifteen-sixteenths of the entire colored population of the United States, So far as the purpose of ascertaining the percentage of increase in the colored pop- ulation the returs of these states arein- adeguate. The abuormal increase of colored population in what is known as the ‘‘black elt” during the decade ending in 1880 led toa popular belief that the negroes were increasing at a much larger rate than the whites. The facts now ascertaincd sustain the theory that the high rate of in- crease shown in 1880 was apparent, not real, and was cuo to tho imperfect enumeration in the southern states in 1870. During the last decade the colored race has not held its own against the whites, Inbut three decades— that is from 1800 to 1880, durmg a part of which the slave trade was in progress—has the colored race increased more rapidly than the whites. Since 1830 the whites have steadily increased at & more rapid rate than the colored people. This increase was not eftected by mmigration, for with the excep- tion of Kansas and Missouri, these states re- ceived comparatively fow immigrants. In 1830 there were nearly six colored inhabi- tants to ton whites, but this pro- portion has been reduced to a triflle more than four at the presmt date, or by nearly one-third its amount. The deficlencies of the ninth census, says Porter, are apparent, Several tables are given which show the movements of the colored element of the Fopllln!.ion during the last half cen- tury, There has been no extended movement of this element since the civil war. Indeed, with the exception of the District of Colum- bia, the border states appear to have lost rather than gained, and during tho last de- cade there bocomes & perceptible southward movement of the colored element from the border states into those bordering on the Gulf, particularly into Mississippi and Ar- kansas. In these two states this has resulted in producing & move rapid increase of the colored element than of the white, Ao L HEAVY SNOW IN KANSAS. and Worst Storm of the Season Raging in That State, KAxsAs 0Ty, Mo., March 2%.—Dispatches from Kansas state thut the worst snow storm of the season is raging throughout that state.

The senator spoko bricfly, expressing his pride and gratitude at the reception. Ho referred to his eampaign for governorin 188 and said he would have been’ clected if tho democratic_party had been accustomed to victory. They had the elements of success, but thoy tackea the courage essentinl to in- sure victory. “ln 150,7 said he, *‘the democratio stato committee isely and patriotically determined that the people of the state should be consulted in their choico for senator, More than ninety counties responded to tho call and mentioned my namo again as suitable to be presented to the people ns a candidate for senator. I ac- copted the duty and wentout to tho people. I calted upon the young men of tho state to nlly ththe right. They respmded and o plarality of 30,000 votes was given for me as the candidato for the senate. The lesson tanght and the lesson learned was that any porty in this country ywhich hoped for sve- cess must win that success by an homnost, cornest, manlyy {ranic appeal o tho peopls thersclves. They ure the best protectors of their own rights.”” The general referred to tho struggle In the legislituro and said his success was predicated upon & manty appeal o a patriotic people, and the secret of the co- hesion and of the energy of the 101 was the fact that they were looking to the voloe of the people. In addition there were gentlo- meneagerly seeking success for independent. ideas, who, observing that the time had eome whon they could understand and _dispose of the great contest on patriotic grounds with the bestinterest of the people, united with the 101 ana 103 became eonspicuous and won the battle. M. Cockrell sald a vory good thing at Carlinville the other night when ho sild, ‘whether T am right or wrong, I pleass more people in_voting for Palmer than I could in any other way.’ " General John C, Black, who was the next speaker, reviewed the democratic victories of tho past two years, and said that when- ever In the great valley of the Mississippi, in the states bordbring on the lakes and north of the Ohio, the purposes of republicanism and its policies had been set out fairly and contrasted with the purposeof the demoo- racy, the fiat of the people has gono forth. In “concluding aculogyof General Palmer General Black said: [ say to you that whether content with tho great houor you have just given him, or whether the people of the United States, believing ne represents truth aud justice and a wise policy, shall call him to othier and more exalted stations, wher- over hostands your democratic senator will be equal to the burdens you shall lay upon . [Groa aprisuse). Colonel C, H. Jones, editor of tho St. Louis Republic, followed, His allusions to the growing political power of the wost were rocefved with cheers, and when he finally crowned his peroration by a warning to the oast that hereaftor New York and the south ara not to dictate the presidential nomina- tlons, but that the great northwest proposes to assert her sovercignty, the vast audience went wild with enthusiasm. “This election,” he snid, ‘earried with it the doom of the caucus method ~of choosing United States sonators. 1t means the end of such scandals ot enacted last week In_California, the votes of legislative cattle in senatorial shamblos warket price of 2,000 each, and of that wmfamy at Coucord, where the voleo of 0w Hampshire was throttled by Chandier and Galligan, It means that the United States senate shall conso to be a club of millionairesand that horeatter in Illinols and other states the peo- ple shall choose and control their representa- tives in congress whether they sit in the sen- ate orhouse, I predictthat s Ilinois goes in 180 56 goos tise union, and f it goos denio- cratic that will be the end of the hoary super- stition that the only avenue to democratic vietory in presidential elections is through a combination between the south and New York.

Ex- ident Cleveland, in aletter, said: *‘1 am ho atmosphero of the occasion will be inspiving to all who participate and will re- iuforeo the faith of tho democracy of the | state in the power and eficiency of its frank and courageous iusistence upon democratic principles.” T.otiors ‘were also read from Intevstate Commissioner Morrison, General Merritt of St. Lows, Senator Brice of Ohio, Governor Boioes of Towa, Poeck of Wisconsin, Hill of New York, Winans of Michigan and Camp- bell of Ohid.
