BLACK URNS HOIORIST.
One of the Agricultural Bulletins
Ridiculed.
Bowers, of California. Replies That
the Bulletin is of Interest to His
Section Union Moves to Abolish the
Coast and Geodetic Survey Bureau
and Transfer Its Duties.
Washington. March 15. Up tolho hour
of U! 50 ®Y!. eh the time of the House wa*
spent in endeavors to secure the consul
eration of bills b.v unanimous consent.
Only one bill got through and that was
local to Oklahoma. After several com
mittee reports had been made the House
took up the sundry civil appropriation
bill, in committee of the whole, with Mr
Lester, dem., of Georgia, in the chair.
Under the section •■department of jus
tice" an amendment was ottered by Mr.
Sayers, dem .of Texas, and agreed to,
providing that the law of Feb. 8, 1594, re
pealing the federal election laws, should
not be construed to prevent the payment
of any claims for services under those
laws, legally performed prior to Feb 8,
1894. and continuing appropriations pre
viously made for that purpose.
BI.ACK RIDICULES A BULLETIN.
Mr. Black, dem.. of Georgia, read from
an agricultural bulletin to show the tech
nical character of the language used, and
created considerable amusement by re
peating some of the terms and subsequently
explaining their meaning in plain Kug
lish During the course of the reading
the members left their seats and gathered
about the speaker in arena of the cham
ber.
Members interrupted the reading with
Jocular remarks from time to time, and
Mr. Sickles, at one point, suggested that
a dictionary be furnished to the repre
sentatives in order that the language of
the bulletin might be made more ineligi
ble. He explained, in conclusion, that he
had read these extracts to show the
flagrant and iuexcusable misuse of the
people’s money.
Mr. Bowers, rep., of California, an
swered Mr. Black. He said the publica
tions of the agricultural department,
and especially the one criticised, had
been of vast benefit to the people of his
state and district. The country was of
vast proportions, and publications that
might be of little interest or value to one
section might be to others. That was the
case in this instance.
THE COAST SI’RVET.
The committee recurred to the section
of the bill making appropriations Lirthe
coast and geodetic survey, and Mr.
Enloe ofiered his amendment abolishing
the bureau amt transferring its duties to
the navy and interior departments.
Mr. Sayers made the point of order
agrinst the amendment that it changed
an existing law.
Mr. Outhwaite said that the transfer
of the duties of other departments aid not
provide for any reduction of expense, the
work would still have to be done.
The jioint was further argued by
Messrs. Cannon, rep., of Illinois, Hooker,
dem.. of Mississippi. Dingley, rer>., of
Maine, and Outhwaite, dear., of Ohio, in
supjiort thereof: and by Mr. Enloe in op
position.
MiYffinloe amended his amendment by
providing further that every officer and
employe of the survey shall be discontin
ued with the survey itself.
RULED OUT OF ORDER.
The chair ruled that the amendment
was obnoxious to the point of order, in
that that portion of it which pro
posed to change the existing law, by
the transfer of the work of the survey,
did not on its face reduce expenses, and
was therefore out of order
Mr. Enloe appealed from the decision
of the chair, but the ruling of the chair
was sustained as the judgment of the
committee without a division.
Mr. Enloe moved then to amend by. re
during the appropriation for the survey
of the Atlantic coast by instructing the
Dockery commission tor investigate the
work of the survey and. if it found it
could be done more efficiently and more
economically in the navy and' interior de
departments, it may report by bill or
otherwise.
A point of order against this amend
ment was overruled. and Mr. Enloe ad
dressed the committee in favor of the
amendment, going into the subject gen
erally. His argument for the abolition of
the survey was that the work for which
it was originally instituted in 1807 ha I
been practically completed, and that not
only that work but the latter addition,
the geodetic survey, could be better and
more cheaply done by the navy and inte
rior departments. .
At 4 :H5 o’clock the committee rose and
the House adjourned until 12 o'clock to
morrow.
NO MATCH FOR THE WOMEN.

wife'g*stand. but she did all the business,
and he became desperate. Yesterday ho

ELLINGTON AT JESUP.
His Speech Largely a Plea for Sub
scribers to His Paper.
Jesup. Ga . March 15. Hon. C. H. El
lington, president of the state farmers'
alliance, addressed a small crowd at
the court house here to-day'. The
reason of the small attendance is
attributed to the alliance men in this
county taking Tom Watson’s third party
paper instead of the alliance organ, which
contains notices of Mr, Ellington’s ap
pointments. His speeh was non-partisan
and solely in the interests of the order of
which he is president. He urged the far
mers to maintain the organization regard
less of polities, and said that he wanted
every farmer to become a member
whether he voted the populist,
republican or democratic ticket.
If the populists had every office in the
gift of the people from President to consta
ble the farmers could not get that relief
they were demanding without the alli
ance. He advised the members to sub
scribe for the alliance paper and keep in
formed on what the organization was do
ing. He added that he put his notices in
that paper and not in Tom Watson's.
However, he was a subscriber to Tom
Watson’s paper. He concluded by saying
that he could live by the principles of the
alliance, and would die by them, and
asked those of the audience that would
do likewise to rise. Ten stood up.
