Ea ca een ade ee es Shee ane on ao San ee eee tea . 2 ae CALLING SPAIN DOWN Sirens Congressional Talk which Fires the Patriotic Heart. - (Regular Correspondencé Mrvxr. ) Wasurvarton, D. 0., March 10, 1896. Spain also should beware of the, ides of March. The modren astrologers were right in declaring the star of Cuba to be in the asCendency. Its influencé upon the U. 8. Senate prodnced a wave of en- thusiastic patriotism that was even more intense than that brought forth by the Monroe doctrine message, and which re- snited in.the adopton of a resolution-de- claring that the belligerency of the Cubans should be at onee recognized and asking the president to use his in- fluence to get Spain to recognize the in- dependence of Cuba. The flaw in this resolution is that it is concurrent, and and not joint. Although there seems to be a doubt. as to the constitutionality of such proceedings it has been the custom for many years to regard concurrent res- olutions as merely expressions of opip- ions of Congress and not being binding upon the president. Therefore the pres- ident would not be bound to pay the slightest attention to this resolution un- less so disposed, should it be adopted by the house just as it was by the senate. But that isn’t the idea of congress. Nine-tenths or more of the members of | both house and senate are determined that Cuba shall be free, and that this country shall take a hand in making it free, by force if necessary. No man fa- miliar in congressional circles can doubt the existence of this sentiment. It is therefore confidently expected that the house, instead of adopting the sénate resolution, will this week adopt the joint resolution reported from its committee | . , : , : : ; | finest agricultural and fruit lands in the | on foreign affairs, which is a little stron- | ger than the senate resolution, and which contains a bint to Spain that this coun. try will interfere by force if its request that the independenve of Cuba be recog- nized is not complied with. The cable news that Spain will have supporters among the European governments will cut no figure with congress in this mat- | Congress is willing to go to war it} ter. need be with all Europe rather than| take a backward step. The six votes cast against the Quban | resolution in the senute were divided | equally between the republican and dem ocratic parties and three of them were furnished by New England— Hale, of | Maine, Morrill, of Vermont, and Wet- mor, of Rhode Island, and three by the South, Caffery, of Louisiana; of Texas, and George, of. Mississippi. The old jealousy of the house of the luxuries of the senate has again broken | out. The result of this outbreak was the striking out of that clause of the legislative and executive appropriation bills which carried the money te pay an- | nual salaries to clerks of senators who | are not chairmen of committees. This | must not be mistaken for reform on the} part of the house, for it isn’t any thing | of the kind. It is common, every day| log rolling, by which the house expects | to succeed in having the salaries of its | own members’ clerks made annual like those of senators’ clerks, instead of hav ing them paid only so long as cangress | is in session. This sort of thing isn’t statesmanship; but it is buman. The members of the hduse who voted to strike out that appropriation for senators’ clerks knew very well that the senate would putit back inthe bill, and that when the bill goes to conference they | succeed in having the| can probably house clerks put upon the satme footing as the senate clerks, and then pack all the blame for increased appropriations for clerk hire on the senate. The A. P. A. isn’t satisfied with the | victories it has already scored in the} house, It is now trying to prevent the | statue of Father Marquette, presented to the United States by the state of| Wisconsin, from occupying a place in | the statuary hall of the Capitol building. Representative Linton, of Mich., who led the A. P. A. forces in the fight which re- sulted in an amendment to the Indian appropriation bill prohibiting the pay ment by the government of any money toethe Catholic Indian Schools, has offer- ed a resolution by which he expects to | shut out the Father Marquette statue, on the ground that the law authorizing the placing of statues in the Capitol says that they shall be citizens of the state presenting them and that Father Mar- quette was not a citizen of the’ state of Wisconsin. If Mr. Linton can secure recognition from the speaker he can probably get his resolution adopted, but the general belief is that Speaker Reed will not recognize-him for the purpose of Salling it up. Senators Mitchell, of Oregon ; Burrows of Michigan and Turpie of Indiana, form a sub-committee appointed to consider and and report to the full committee on elections, the resolution providing for the election of senators by direct vote of the people. The Alabama legislative election which preceded the election of Senator Morgan is likely to be investigated by a senate committee, as-it is now certain that Sen- ator Allen’s resolution for the investiga- t \ Chilton, } tion will be reported to the senate, and it is probable that it will be voted for by all the poputista and republicans, The house has passed the bill author- izing the leasing of the school lands of Arizona, over the President’s veto, and the sénate is expected to do the same Outlook For Miplog in Idaho. It is scarcely possible to read a paper published anywhere in Idaho without reading of new mine discoveries or in- creased prosperity in the mining indus- try. This year will unquestionably show a largely increased gold production for the state. In many places placer mining will be carried on on a larger scale than ever before, with more modern methods and better appliances. New mills are being contracted for in many districts, and from the Coeur d’Alenes to the Owyhee more men ‘will be engaged in prospecting than ever before. The fact is patent that all the discoveries yet made in Idaho amount to almost nothing cem- pared with future possibilities. Willow | Creek district, almost in sight of the} state capital, is a revelation of the fact that Idabo has not been thoroughly prospected. There are broad areas in| the state which have scarcely yet been visited, There have been no booms in} Idaho, however. The improvement and existing prosperity is all only a steady. and natural growth. We have had no Cripple Creek or Mercur rushes and per- | haps it will be as well in the end if we do not have them. But that this state will attract more men and more capital, and that her mining industries will continue | | to increase and prosper, none are more | confident than her best informed people. It is not mining alone, however, upon which the future of Idahodepends. Her | splendid climate, her great areas of the | West and her timber resources are all | attracting a sturdy and prosperous peo- | ple. All they now require is a fair and | honest, but thorough advertising of our | advantages and attractions to’ bring |home seekers, miners and capitalists | here in increasing numbers.—DeLamar | Nugget.
