He said also that he heard the names of certain senators mentioned in conver sation. Gaston was pressed very hard by the committee. He did not refuse to answer any question, but to a great many queries replied simply that he did not know.

He said he was in the room at the Arlington on the date named and supposed there were sena tors in conversation with Mr. Terrell, who occupied the room because of the in the city government, but it is most evident that it has been guilty of criminal negligence in many particulars and of gross incompetence in others. But what else could be expected? For the first time in years the republican party drew the -lines closely in a municipal election and made a straight party campaign. It denied all municipal issues and insisted upon party questions. It proposed to give Lawrence a stalwart republican city government.

It has succeeded, to that extent, and we hope the republicans are proud of their job. Certainly no one else is. If this is a party administration, the people are praying to never see another one.

The roads were in a semi-liquid plight from the recent rain and heavy columns of clouds hang threateningly in front, rear and flank, but about 10 o'clock the sun's hot charges pierced their center and they gave way and became a mass of flying fugitives. Already a large number of people from city and country bad gathered at Lecomp-ton to attend the memorial exercises. A great many veterans, many of them battle scarred, were present.

After prayer by the Rev. J. Lewis, Miss Kate Baughman read an essay eulogizing the "old soldier." Recitations were spoken in the following order: "Barbara Frietchie," Miss Lizzie Winter; "Our Flag," Miss Minnie McCar-ty; "The Drummer Boy of Mission Ridge," Miss Lillie Burnett; "You Put no Flower on my Papa's Grave," Miss Rose Heise. This part of the program was very good and was made more pleasing by choir songs sung by a quintette under the direction of Mr Corina Hill. Dr.

partisan character of Speaker Crisp's rulings as well as the absenteeism of the democrats. The less Mr. Reed has to say about partisan rulings the better. No speaker was ever more deliberately and ostentatiously unfair than Mr. Reed.

It has happened that he has been repeatedly shut off in bia attempts at filibustering by following precedents which he himself established. As to the absenteeism of democratic members, it i wholly inexcusable, and there can be no objection to having tention calledsto it. Of course, absenteeism is not confined to democrats, but the latter, being responsible for legislation, have stronger reasons for being in attendance than the members of the opposition.
