And to that end, under the loadership of Manager Allen of the Standard, a system of drainage has been outlined which, if permitted, will transform the thousands of acres In Dodge county from an almost im- penetrablo swamp to the most valuable and productive soil. Mr. Allea alizes the difieulties in the way of the terprise, but he has gone at it with o dets mination to win. Ho says that every ditch that fias been dug thus far has encountered | viclent opposition. Men across whose lands | ditches have been projected have fought them with desperation, regirdless of the benefits that would cortainly acerue to their neighborhoods s well as to themselves And even now, although they have seen the chango produced, wherein swamps and 10rasses have been transformed to produc- tivo flelds and luxurious gardens, they still quibblo s to means and fight every route proposed. All farmers now admit the imperative ne- cessity of ditches. At first they feared that drainage would destroy their meadows, but since the Standard’s experiment thoy that objection with grace. Mr. Allen great anticiations for tho Platte Valloy. He sees, in the future, regardicss of tho ssent tarifl tinkering, the whole valley nsformed into one grand boet field mor rich and productive than Germany or France ever knew, and that these famed sugar coun- will find in Nebraska their strongest compotitor in the sugar markets of the world. | | | | | | Minden Schools teopened.

DECISION ON THIS POINT IS FINAL Motlon to Recommit Wil Very Likely Fail and the BUL Wil Stand or 1l, Income Taxes and Al luclude WasniNatox Bureat 513 FOURTEENTI STREET, WASHINGTON, Jan, 20, After a careful, quict canvass today, the republicans in the house reafirmed the wisdom of their docision not to join the demo- cratio opposition to the Wilson tarift bill in the motion the latter will make on Thurs- day o recommit to the waysand means committee. Great pressure was brought to bear upon the republicans today by some of the democrats who are fighting the bill to induca them to vote for recominittal, bat the republicans know that if the bill is recom- mitted incomo taxes will be stricken out and two or three amendments made which will secure for it practically a solid demo- cratic vote and insure the ultimate success of this ruinous measure. If the bill is not recommitted the chances for defeat are bettered, becauso the democratic opposition to income taxes and foatures of the customs bill is thus bunched and the measure on final passage is greatly woakened, 1t 15 known that a majority of the senate ance committee favor retention of income ces in the bill, and opposition 15 intensi- fled in that body by keeping the measuro in its present form and not giving the demo- Ats opportunity to strike out income The republicans rogard the appeal of demo- 1 In the house to savo thom from polit destruction by income taxes and fre de for their especial local interests as a great exhibivion of unadulterated gall, sinco the latter have helped to destroy reciprocity, the sugar bounty, protection to farmers and all that is republican in principle. The re- publicans intend to give democrats ropre- senting protectivo districts a dose of their own party's medicine, and will not, assist in the effort to recommit the bill. The meas- ure as it is now. with income taxes and all of 1ts offensivencss, must fail in its_entirety or become law.

Reprosontativo Breckinridge of Kentucky called attontion in one of his speeches € the tendencios in those directions, manifésted throughout tho thorough and diversifietl ‘throshing of eco- nomic principles which has been in progross since the revenue measure. with income tax accessory, came before the house. The whole drift of politics, 8 he saw it, was back toward the systems of direct taxation enforced in the carlior stages of this goyv- ernment, In a different spirit spoko Representative Hendricks of New York, a representative of the more conservative element of his party who, while aamitting thevurrent which Mr. Brockinridge commented upon, was unablo to believe that the democratic party could be going over bodily to what ho called the istic school of Tom Johnson.

Ohio's Ex-Chief Exeoutivo Sald to Bo Nard Pressed for Monoy. Cr vaTI, Jan, £0.~As ex-Governor Campbell’s paper has gone 1o protest repeat- edly here and at his oid home in Hamilton, as well as in Columbus, and the east, the re- ort of his assignment creates no surprise ere. It is, however, impassible to confirm the report here or at Hamilton. It is well known that Senator Brice:and John R, Mc- Lean of the Cincinnatl Enquirer are among Campbell's largest creditors, and that he had political as well as ‘other differences with both of them. Among the reporis is one to tho offect that Brice does not want to stand for re-election next year and that Me- Lean will be pressed foy the senate. In this connection the talk about Campbell pre- paring to run for governur next year is re- garded as intended to affect Brice and Me- Lean's alleged efforts forsettlement as well as tnew political program. Campbell’s real estate and manufacturing interests at Hum- ilton are all gone and his friends say that he is not returning there for business. Al- though genorally considered as bankrupt he is conceded to have more political influence than any other wan in his party in the state, and, it is thought, could break even the Brice-McLoau combine it crowded on paper which they have failed t realize on for over ive years.

He has made public the fol- lowing statement: “It has been orroneously published in some newspapers that the committee on ju- of the house had agreed to and re- 14 resolution denying the authority of ctary of the treasury to issue and sell bonds as proposed in his recent cire 'y and these publications have evidently made an unfavorable impression upon the minds of some who coutemplated making bids for these sezurities, “Tha only resolution in relation to this subject that has been beforo the committee is as follow “Resolved, That It Is tho sense of the house of representatives that the seeroinry hi authority under tho existing law to issue soll bonds of the United States, excopt such as Is conferred upon him by the nct approved Junuary 14, 1875, entitied *An Act to Provide for the Resumption of Specio Puyments,’ wnd that tho money derived from the sule of bonds fssued under thit act cannot bo lawfully ap- piled to any purpose cxcept those specified thereln, “It Will be seen that this resolution as- sumes that authority to issue was conferred upon the secretary of the treasury by the act o1 January 14, 187 i such au- thority still c at it assorts the pro- ceeds of the bouds cannot be lawfully used except for the purpose of resumption, “The oficial telegraphic report of the pro- ceediogs in the committeo when the sec tary appeared before it last Thur: shows thut bis uuthority to issue bonds was not questionod by any member. Tho ouly question was whother he could use the proceeds for any other purpose than the re- demption ot United Sgates notes. Mr. Bailey, the author of the resolution, distinctly admitted the existence of tho authority, Addressing the sccretary, Mr. Bailey said: *The resoiution does not im- peach your right to issue bonds, it exprossly lizes it, but questions your right to apply the proceeds (0 any purpose except those specitied in the act.’ “The juaic committee of tho houso examined and reported upon this same que: tion during the Iifty-second congress, and it then conceded the authority existing under the act of 1875, The question as to the authority of the secretary to uso the money for any particular purpose is wholly distinct from the question as to his authority to issue and sell the bonds. No matter what ho may do with the money the validity of the bonds will not be affected and there is, therefore, no reason why any- one siould hesitate to invest in = thesc securities on the ground that the procecds might possibly be used for other than re- demption purposes,” Mr. Carlisle would say nothing further on »subject. He sald his only purpose i issuing this statement was to rectify errors of recontly published reports regarding the issuance of bouds. He will leave this city this evening. SOVERELIGN'S AP G. Carlisle, ) i LICATION, Motion for un Anti-lond Injunction Argued On Today. WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.—Arguments wero today heard before Judge Cox of the dis- trict supreme court on the application of Grand Master Workman Sovercign and I B. McGuire of the Knights of Labor for an injunction to restrain Secrotary Carlisle from issuing $50,000,000 bonds, as proposed in his recent bond circular. Listened to by Few. Only a score of persons heard the argu- ments. The applicants for the mjunction were represented by Senator Allen, populist, of Nebraska, Judge Wilson, C. C. Cole of Des Moines ana J. W. Mills of Denver, all of whom took part in the argument. The court was asked to compel Secrctary Carlisle to show wny the writ asked should not be granted. Judge Wilson, in opening the case, referred to the fact that there was no otner judicial tribunal to which the ap« plicants had resort under the ecircum- stances. He declared no other business would sustain as much injury or damage by the bond issue as that of the miners, who form a large percentage of the.50,000 mem- bers of the Knights of Labor. Though the secretary, in announcing that bonds would be issued, cited the actof January 14, 1875, providing for specie payment resumption, as authority for his action, neither this act nor thatof July 14, 1870, causing the refunding of vhe national debt, conferred the authority. Toxt of tho Application. Counsel Mills then read vhe application. “The issue of the bonds as proposed,” cited the application, “Involves an 1ndebtedness approximating $75,000,000, including princi- pal and interest. Your orators complain that on January 17, 1804, the defendant, John Grifiin Carlisle, secretary of the treasury, caused to bo issued and publicly offered for public subscription an issue of bonds to the amount of §0,000,000, redeemabie in coin at the yleasure of the government after ten years from date of issue, bearing interest at Jor cent per aunum, and dated February 1, 1804, “Orators further show that the proposed action for the issuance of bonds by the de- fendant is illegal, without any authority and contrary to the statutes of the United States, in that the bonds ave not proposed 10 be ned or sold to redeemn the legal tender United States notes, Further, that by the act of July 14, 1870, there was an ex- press inhibition upon the issue of any bonds or to increase in uny way whatevs the bonded aebt of the United States. It is also averred that toe act of January 14, 18 amended by that of May 31, 1878, so withdraw from the sccretary of the trea ury the power to redeem any more of said legal tender United States notes, and that there were outstanding when that act took effect §346,000,000 of legal tender notes. “It is further sald that there is no de- mand now, nor has there peen any practical possibility that a demand will or can be e for uny further redemption of the legal tender notes, The proposed action under the published offer for subscription is not only without authority of law and con- teary thereto, but without neccessity or sanction in the condition of the United States, for thero is n the treasury §75,000,- 000 of United States gold coin wh rightfully and properly be applied for the purpo for which the bonds are offered for subscription. Neither the nes sities nor convenicnees of the government require issuance of the bonds while such issue and sale are prohibited by law. No Need ot u Gold Reserve. “But now the defendant, combining and coufederating with divers porsons at pres- ent unknown, at times pretends that the issue and salo is nccessary to maintain a 100,000,000 gold coin reserve fund for r sumption or other purposes, whoreas there is no law or authority requiring such re serve, Nor is said reserve desirablo or practicable. All of these uctings and pre tenses are contrary o equity and good ¢ fidence, and that injunction may issue ugainst tho defendant, his conféderates or employes against the 10 and salo of the bonds and from expend- ng public moueys in preparing and placing on the market for salo the issue of bonds, and in paying any ivstallment of in- torest on the principal may it pleuse the court togrant unto your orators the writ to subpana John Grifin Carlisle and confed- erates and agonts by o cortain duy under a tain penulty to v before this honor- able court in chancery sitting, and then and thero to answer in the | ud, furttier, tostand to and abide by such orders and do croes us shall be agreeavle to cquity and good conscience."

Nrew Yok, Jan. 20.—By dicection of Sec- retary Carlisle, Assistant Treasurer Conrad M. Jordon sent out today invitations to thirty bank presidents and ofticers of other prominent financial institutions, asking them to mect the sccretary of the treasury at tho subtreasury at a_conference, which lasted an hour and a half. At its conclusion sev- eral of tho bankers who were present said the secrotary had spoken at length on the action of the judiciary committee, saying ho thought their resolution showed the legality of tho bond 1ssue. Mo also smid he belioved the resolution would fail to pass.

One of the members of the civaring houso com- mittee said he was convinced that in the minds of those who had heard Mr. Carlislo’s statement of the case there was no doubt of the safely of the bonds as an investment, Their legality, he said, was assured.
