WEDNESDAY, JANUARY, 9, 1SS9 ""Governor-elect Francis will be in augurated on next Monday, the 12th inst. Speaker Russell will have his com mittees ready to report by the time Governor Francis is inaugurated. Since the absence of Senator Beck, the honor of being the ablest democratic debater in the United States senate, has been generally conceded to Senator Vest. It is a distinction in which he and his state may take great pride. "We see by our exchanges that other cities the size of Butler are agitating the question of a local Building and Loan association to establish man ufactories. This, it seems to us, would be an excellent method for th people of Butler to pursue. This as a suggestion and we expect to have more to say on this subject in the near future when we can sug gest some definite plan of operation. Secretary J. K. Gwynn, of the southwest Missouri immigration so ciety, is in high spirits over the good results thus far of the society. He has distributed throughout east ern states 75,000 pamphlets and de scriptive circulars and the inquiries received at his office are numerous. It is predicted that the immigration the coming spring to Missouri will be great, and it will pay Bates coun ty to be on the watch for her share. Hon. IS. E. Kimball, republican nominee for governor at the last election, is an applicant for the office of United States Attorney for the "Western District of Missouri, and judging from the many indorse ments he is receiving from the re publican leaders and organizations in the state, with a good show of success. The office pays in fees not to exceed $6,000 and it is understood that it pays the full amount. He is entitled to two assistants who re ceive salaries of $1800 each. THE HEW STATE MINE INSPECTOR.

Cotton The Text For Tariff De bate in the Senate. Republican Turn Tail and Run from tue Chamber ail Amendments Pro posed Voted Down. Washington, Jan. 3. In the sen ate the tariff bill occupied the great er portion of the day. Vest has taken the leadership of the demo crats and is opposing the monopo lists' tariff bill with splendid effect. The greater part of to-day's session was devoted to tariff on thread. Vest evidently had studied the ques tion and mastered it to perfection. It was a continuance of yesterday's debate largely, though, of course, the Senators did not confine thtm slves in their discussion to the matters immediately in question. Mr. Vest read yesterday and also to day from the testimony of an ex mule spinner and an ex -member of the Massachusetts Legislature nam ed Howard, regarding the situation of laborers in Massachusetts aud la borers generally as far as he knew. The testimony was taken by the Blair committee a few years ago. Howard, from all accounts, is an intelligent man. He is a native of England and worked 18 years as a mule spinner in that country, and five years subsequently as a mule spiuuer in this country. At the time his testimony was taken he was the secretary of a labor organization iu Massachusetts. His description of the condition of the New Eng land protected laborer aud the Old Eugland free trade laborer made a striking contrast. Mr. Vest brought it out fully with brilliant running comment that "riled the New Enj landers." The republicans tried to retort and break him up for a time, but being heeled with facts and un answerable logic, they were unable to upset him, and presented the pitiable spectacle of litterally run ning from the senate chamber and leaving it to the democrats. Allison, Cullum, Manderson aud the repre sentatives of agricultural communi ties retired early in the fray, not be ing able to stand the racket. Sher man aud Edmunds soon followed suit. Aldrich and Hawley for a time held their own, Aldrich espe cially, as he is personally interested u thread factories. After a while he, too retired and Mr. Vest made a splendid exposition of the time in wardness of the bill to his demo cratic colleagues alone and to crowd ed galleries. The cowardice of the republicans in retreating from the chamber to their cloak-rooms and lunch-rooms was a subject of gener al remark. They did not retire, however, until they found they were beaten. During the recess Mr. Vest work ed IS hours a day on the tariff bill and mastered it. There is no man on the republican side now able to stand in front of him in the discus sion of the bill. They discovered this to-day and adopted the coward ly subterfuge of walking away. Of course, whenever a vote was neces sary they returned to the Senate chamber and voted with solid bru tality against any and all amend ments proposed by the democrats. The bill will pass the senate, of course, there being a republican ma jority in the body, but it will not pass until the democrats have shown up its true character for the edifi cation of the countr. The pending question when the debate began was on Mr. Vest's amendment to paragraph 313 to change the duty on eotton, thread, yarn, warps, etc, valued at not ex ceeding 25 cents per pound, from 10 cents per pound to 35 per cent, ad valorem. After a speech of some length from Mr. Vance, Mr. Vest's amend ment was rejected by the usual par ty vote: Teas, 20; nays, 24. Mr. Vest called attention to other items in paragraph 313, but said he would not offer any amendments or ask a yea and nay Tote upon them, but he would simply remark ' that the duty on thse items was increas- Ied in order to exclude all foreign competition as far as possible, so as to enable the American manufactur ers to hold the market at whatever price they aw fit to impose. He moved, however, to amend para graph 314. relating to spool thread of cotton, by striking out "7 cents per dozen spools" and inserting 40 per cent ad valorem. He quoted from statements made by spool cot ton manufacturers, J. P. Coates Clark and others, before the tariff commission in 1882, and before the ways and means committee in 1884 to show that they asked a less rate of protection in 1S84 than in 1885 Mr. Hawley said he did not un derstand why the senator from Mis souri was criticising spool thread manufacturers for their willinguess to accept a lower rate. He did not understand that tbey were asking any change in the existing law. Mr. Vest suggested that there was a good deal of money for them in the existing law. He proceeded to criticise the statement of a cotton manufacturer (Mr. Fergusuu) be fore the ways and means committee of the House to the effect that the poor sewing women of the United States were benefited by the superior qual ity of the American thread, aud he contrasted his statement with ex tracts from Helen Campbell's book describing the condition of the sew. ing women of the city of New York. MARTIAL LAW IN OKLAHOMA. 1 he Settlers in Springer City Ordered to Deiiart. Pin-cell, I. T., Jan. 4. The Okla homa invasion is coming to a climax and excitement is intense. Spring er City, Oklahoma, a town of 3,000 inhabitants, is under martial law. The mayor and city treasurer have gone, an l the United States troops are ordering all citizens out. This city is overrun with fugitives from the '-promised land." Lute last night the troops station ed in the territory received orders to remove all settlers who are now locating claims in the vicinity of Ok lahoma City, Purcell and Springer. Reinforcements from Fort Reno are expected to join troop B, United States cavalry, near Oklahoma City, and move on the settiers in the morning. As might be supposed, those who have gone into the territory to take unlawful possession of claims are of the reckless kind and. therefore. trouble f a serious nature is annre- heudod at any moment. A c.nllimnn between the soldiers and invaders is hourly expected to night and there inay be bloodshed before to-mor row's sun sets. The invaders have acted xr-rx foolishly in making their move at this time. The Springer bill is pending and even if they were per mitted to remain they would gain no rights in the event of its passage. They are evidently a set of advent urers who do not understand the le gal status of the matter will come to frrief with only their trouble for their pains. Of all the raids into UKianoma tms latest one is the most foolish and inexcusable. A Good Chance.
