These make nine cases in all, and Dr. Macrae neither of them are likely to be re, from the fact thaC they were vaccinated Immedi- ately aiter being exposed. In fact, he does not ook for any more serious cases in these houses, and says that if any more of the inmates come down it will probably be merely a case of varioloid. The only danger now thought to exist Is from exposure to cases that may”be brought here from outside cities. The epidemic is now thoroughly under control so far as the people in (he quarantined district are con- cerned, but there is still sufficient danger from outside exposure to warn the people not to relax their vigilance.

DENOUNCED BY BLAND (Continued tion. But in the ab: being adopted, there from First Page.) nce of any, method 8 one officer, who is the organ of the house, ged to act as its agent, and that officer very properly counts the presence of a quorum when there is one, and if any gentloman s dissatisfied with his actio there is an appeal to the house, and when the house itself once declared that counting is proper, why, then, that is the action of the house,” “Will the gentleman an inquiry?” asked Mr. Turner. “Does the entleman from Maine insist that the speaker has the authority to count a quorum without a rule of the hous i ([ “Then the gentleman differs from the sus preme court itself.” Not at all. If the gentleman will read refully the supreme court decision he will find the court, like a supreme court, confined itself to the question at hand and decided that a present quorum was the con stitutional quorum. I want to get that into a resasonable number of minds on ‘the other side—(laughter)—and then we shall be victorious. “Will the gentleman from Maine permit me to correct one jmpression I think he would not wish to have misapprehended? asked Mr. McMillin. “The gentleman stated that he was sustained by the house in his ruling that he had a right to count a quorum before the adoption of the rules. By res ferring to the digest the gentleman will find that from this ruling, the one I have named, an appeal was taken and debated for two but no vote ever taken in the on sustaining the decision of the chair. A motion to lay the appeal on tho table was, however, declared carried on a vote by yeas and nays, a_quorum voting, but being supplemented in the same manner as was done in the ruling appealed from. So that the ruling that he has a right to count a quorum being appealed from was sustained only by his counting a quorum himself.” (Applause on the democratic side.) “Oh! Well, now,” drawled Mr. Reed, “this democratic applause at these utterances, you know, is getting fainter and fainter. I meastre your advance in knowledge by your approach to silence. (Laughter on the re- publican side.) There is no truth about you. The only difficulty with the democratic party is that it takes a little longer time for that to arrive.” L2 At this point Mr. Bland unexpectedly with- drew his amendment and moved to suspend all further proceedings under the call of the house, under which the arrests were made. The purpose of this move was to drop the much confused question; instead of attempt- ing to straighten it out. Mr. Reed made the point of order that Mr. Bland could not dispense with a call partially executed, and on which members were now under arrest. Mr. Springer ingisted that vacating the order of the house of February 19 would release the members under arrest. Many members attempted to talk and the chair protesfed that he coud not hear halt a dozen members at once. Mr. Reed sald every respectable man must be %0 sick and tired of this thing that even the solution offered by Mr. Bland might be a blessing. This closed the opposition, OVERRULED THE POINT OF ORDER. The acting speaker overruled the point of order and then put the question on the Bland question for vacating the call of February 19 and releasing the members under arrest. This was carried by a loud viva voce vote, with very few dissenting votes. Thus the tangle was suddenly terminated and the ar- rested members of congress were again free, Then the call of committees, usually coming at (he opening of the day's session, was begun. Mr. Bland moved that the house go into the committee of the whole to consider the silver bill and the debate close at 5 p. m. tomorrow (Saturday). On this the previous question was demanded. Filibustering at once began again as Mr. Tracey of New York demanded a division on the vote for the previous question. The division showed 147 to 2—no quorum. Mr. Bland moved a call of the house. Mr. Tracey moved to adjourn. Mr. Meredith said he wished to call atten- tion to the systematic filibustering. A yea and nay vote was taken on the mo. tion to adjourn, resulting in a vote of 19 to 5, and the house refused to adjourn. Reed moved to take a recess until § p. m. This was agreed to. At the evening session pension bills were considercd, but none passed, owing to the lack of a quorum. B The greatest pain-annililator of the age is Salvation Oil.

The senate passed the bill introduced by Palmer authorizing one railroad company to invest in the bonds or securities of another. The Bishop bill appropriating $80,000 for t} education of eommon school teachers in nor- mal schools was discussed at length but no action taken. Bills were introduced in the Wilken, requiring corporations to pay em- ployes weekly; by Miller of Lee, providing for state inspector of steam boilers and en gines The house passed without a dissenting yote the bill by Milliman to settle county scat contests. The bill requires age and residence of signers to petition of remonstrance to be given, authorizes the Board of Supervisors to determine the question of fraud connected with securing names and provides for an ay peal to the district court. An amendment proposed by Milliman was adopted, that the bill should not effect pending litigation. WILL NOT MATERIALIZE The effort to secure the appointment of a te board of control to take charge of all the charitable, penal and educational insti- tutlons and abolish a dozen or so of local or special boards of trustees will not material- ize this session. The original bill, introduced by Senator Gatch two years ago, although defeated, was warmly approved by the press and people of the state as a long stride in the Interest of economy. The general publc has_almost unanimously given its sanction to the measure, but the members of the isting boards do not fancy the idea of being legislated out of office and have organized a strong and_effective lobby to sidetrack the measure. The State university is at present controlled by a board of regents, consisting of one member from each congressional dis- trict. These regents strongly Insisted that it would hamper their institution to put them under the same management as the insane asylums. ) The trustees of the State college, which is governed in the same manner, thought that us that institution was largely supported by the general gov- ernment it ought to be free from the con- templated supervision. The Cedar Falls Normal school also ob- jected most decidedly to the arrangement. In the pending bill these institutions have been left out and no change proposed in their management. | Even with this con- cession the power of.the lobby, aided by the personal influence of the members of the special boards, has been strong enough in the senate to secure an unfavorable report on the bill from a majority of the ways and means committee, and it will be quietly put to sleep for the session,. Meanwhile the agitation among the taxpayers will not cease, and the advantage of having one single state board clothed with sufficient power to investigate the management of all the institutions supported at public expense in the most minute details, and armed with authority to suspend dishonest or negligent officials, Instead of a multiplicity of local or special trustees, will become more and more apparent. When the people of the state fully realize the great saving that could be cffected by having all of the supplies of these institu- tions, aggregating hundreds of thousands. of dollars annually, purchased ‘at wholesale in large quantities Instead of at retail, and principally of preferred dealers, the demand for the contemplated change will become too emphatic to be safely ignored. It is pre- dicted by many legislators that this will be one of the most important questions that will come before the next legislature. The republicans have decided to get rid of D. N. Richardson of Davenport, the lead- ing democratic member of the board of re- génts of the State university, for the alleged reason that he dominates and controls the board to such an extent as to create a house: By Agricultural SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1801, prejudice in the minds of the people again:t the institution.
