meeting h#re today and had Sec- '
retary Carlisle’s letter suggesting''

ing any action, with the under
standing that the meeting would '
be hold very soon far the further
consideration of the question,
Representative Bland says Sec
retary Carlisle’s letter urging an
immediate issue of bonds, raises
the bond issue very sharply as

‘Tt is a plain propasitien te run
this government on bonds, and in
my locality it would damu any ad
ministration for all time te come,
if executed. I do not think the

bonds under the present law.
Representative Bailey's resolu
tion introduced yesterday, to re
strict ths secretary's power to is
sue bonds, went to the judiciary
committee, and it is supposed will
be reported favorably :
