The new vault for silver in the
north court yard of the treasury de­
partment is finished, and will soon
give place to many millions of the
people’s money; it has ft capacity
forest oring one hundred million
standawKsilver dollars.
In the senate the Blair education­
al bill has again been taken up,
and there is a strong probability
that it will pass both houses, and
be vetoed by President Cleveland;
the dependent pension bill will also
be ]»ushod forward to passage, and
will likely meet a similar' fate. A
general bankrupt bill will also be
introduced in the house, and appar­
ently it has a good chance of be­
coming a law; it gives five hundred
dollars as the mininum and pro­
vides that bankruptcy cases shall
hive precedence of all except state
cases.
In the senate..the adjournment
resolution was made the occasion
of a political discussion, provoked
by the republicans, in which Messrs.
Plumb and Sherman severely as­
sailed the president’« message, but
Mr. Beck and Butler very effectual­
ly exposod the hypocrisy of these
two excited statesmen.

tions to viewing the sale of liquors;
always provided that we are clearly
understood to oppose all licensing
of the selling of intoxicating liquors
as a beverage as being a moral
wrong.
Resolved: That we "acknowledge,
as powerful agencies creating the
strong prohibition sentiment, the
long continued moral suasion work
of the home, the church, the various
temperance societies, the distribu­
tion of literature, lectures and other
educational influences, and that we
will combine to work along theso
lines and urge the-enforcement of
this law, with the addition of suf­
ficient penalty for nonenforcement,
for scientific instruction in the pub­
lic schools on alcohol and narcotics,
in order to mold the sentiment of
the rising generation.
Resolved: That in order Yb ac­
complish one of the great objects
for which- the temperance . people
are working, namely, the abolish­
ing of the saloon from our Btate,
that is the sense of this alliance
"that such object can be soonest and
most effectually accomplished by a
cordial and united effort of all tem­
perance workers with an independ­
ent political party free from all en­
tangling alliances with liquor inter­
ests.
Resolved: That to make a suc­
cessful fight we must financially
support temperance papers that
wiZZ.foirly and fully present our
side of the question and give us
temperance news; and this applies
particularly to a good prohibition
newspaper for our own state of
Oregon.
Resolved: That we favor a new
registry law to prevent frauds at
elections, “
