SATURDAY. APRIL 22 1882.
RESOLUTION PASSED.
Senator Vaice has at last succeeded
in securing the passage of his resolu
tion for the appointment of a commit
tee. with power to compel the attend
ance of witnesses, to investigate the al
leged abuses in the administration of
th internal revenue affairs in this col
lection district. A similar resolution
by Mr. Armfleld was pending in the
House, but in both House and Senate
they were vigorously opposed by Repub
licans with a view to preventing the
proposed investigation. But our Sena
tor stuck, showing that he meant busi
ness, and finally succeeded in securing
what ought to havo been conceded with
out question. The charges alleged
against the management of the office of
collector have been so positive and so
gross that to refuse the demand for in
vestigation would have been criminal,
and could have been refused on no
ground but the desire to shield parti
sans lest their exposure should result in
damage to the party for whose success
they were zealous workers. Thus far
we have refrained from discussing the
subject preferring to wait until investi
gation established the truth or falsity
of the charges made, and made mainly
on Republican authority, but now per
haps when the lights are turned on we
may learn something of the modus
operandi by which the boasted Repub
lican gains were made in this collec
tion district, a subject on which we
have had for some time no small
amount of curiosity.

MANUFACTURING AT ROCK HILL.
A correspondent of the Chester Bul
letin writes up the new cotton factory
at Rock Hill after this style, and we re
produce it because of its interest to
Observer reader? :
These mills are driven by a 150 horse
power Corliss engine, steaui for which
is supplied by two immense boilers that
daily consume six cords of wood to
keep up steam. Since they have been
running the results have been highly
satisfactory, the mills being run to Lbeir
fullest capacity and all the product of
yarn being placed ahead of time at good
figures. All the product is engaged up
to the 1st of May, after which time the
entire manufacture will be held for
hizher Drices. The principle manufac
ture at present is No. 20 yarn, which
commands from 21 to 22 cents in Phila
delphia. About five bales of raw cot
ton are consumed daily and 2,000 lbs. of
yarn produced therefrom, the mills be
ing started at 7 o'clock a. m., and shut
down at 7 p. m. There is no night
WJrk.
There are eighty-five operatives in
the factory, and they receive from fif
teen cents to a $1.50 per day. For their
use twenty neat and comfortable cot
tages have been erected in the vicinity
of the factory, all being laid out into
streets. The company is contemplating
the erection of a chapel of worship for
the use of the operatives, and it is to
be erected adjacent to the cottages. It
is proposed that the ministers of the va
rious denominations in town unite and
conduct the chapel services alternately.
The capital stock of the Rock Hill
Cotton Manufacturing Company is
$100,000, but it will shortly be increas
ed by an additional stock of $25,000.
About the latter part of the present
week 1,600 more spindles will be put in
which will swell the total number to
$7,840. the present number being 0,240.
The officers of the company at pi esent
are as follows: President A. E. Hutch
inson ; Secretary and Treasurer David
Hutchinson; Superintendent J. R.
Neislea; Directors J. M. Ivv, J. R.
London, W. L. Roddy, A. H. White, W.
B. Fe well, of Rock Hill, and J. I. Mid
dleton, of Baltimore. The annual
meeting of the stockholders of the com
pany will be held on the last Tuesday
tn May, when the election for officers
will again take place.
COTTON SEED OIL MILL.
Just listen what the same correspon
dent says about another equally impor
tant enterprise:
Col. J. M. Ivy, whose business dash
and unrivalled enterprise is as much
admired in Chester as in Rock Hill,
will, at an early day, in company with
W. B. Fewell, Jr., convert their steam
gin and milling establishment into a
cotton seed oil mill and a complete
commercial flouring mill, retaining at
the same time on a more extensive
scale the steam ginning features.
Now why can't Charlotte go and do
likewise?
The House Discusses the Act Authoriz
ing the Transfer of Claims to the Court
of Claims, Dnring Which Houk, Re
publican, of Tennessee, Takes Occa
sion to Descant upon the Discrimina
tion in the Treatment'; of Claims of
Northern and Southern Loyalists ,
Washington, April 21. Senate.
Blair from the committee on educa
tion and labor reported back the bill to
aid in the establishment and temporary
support of common schools. -
1 tie committee maKe no recommen
dation as to superintendence of ex
penditure and other details of the bill,
but their report states that the majori
ty of the committee favor recommend
ing an appropriation from the treasury
to aid in support of common schools,
the same to be distributed to the sever
al States and Territories for a limited
Esriod of time and upon the basis of il
teracy. Placed on the calendar.
The discussion of the regular order,
the Mississippi improvement bill, was
resumed, and Mr. McPherson advocated
an increase of the appropriation to $15,
000,000. He was prepared to vote all
the money required to make the Mis
sissippi that great artery of commerce
and bond of union between the North
and South which nature intended it
should be. He discussed the utility of
the levees in connection with the chan
nel improvement to show their necessi
ty and enumerated the commercial,
military and postal advantages result
ting from an efficient system of im
provement and the effect of these in
cheapening transportation.
Harrison replied to the arguments in
the discussion in behalf of the use of a
part of the proposed appropriation for
the reclaiming of lands by means of
levees. He regarded the question put
by Garland whether an appropriation
for this purpose was not as defensible
on constitutional grounds as was the
voting of relief for the sufferers by the
late overflow as hardly a fair one. In
the latter case the urgency was such
that members voted without stopping
to consider the question, but in neither
instance, in the opiuion of the speaker,
was there any constitutional warrant
for the expenditures. He said the claim
thit the levees should be maintained
by the government because the river
commission had recommended their
construction, was not supported by the
facts, as the extent of authority vested
in that body was simply to survey the
stream and report upon the cost of a
levee system ; that the members were
not agreed upon the system, as the in
formation they had acquired concern
ing it did not warrant the conclusion
upon its value. He denied being actua
ted by any personal or sectional consid
eration in his position, and proceeded
further to refute the claims upon which
an appropnatiod for the land reclama
tion was based.
Mr. Vest maintained the constitu
Houk, of Tennessee, contended that
the claims of loyal citizens of the
South should be paid promptly by
the Government, and ; characterized
as unjust - the decisions rendered
that the fact , that i the claimant
lived in a disloyal State -was sufficient
ground for rejecting and disallowing his
claim. That position was incompatiole
with justice. If the South had been
solid there would have been two gov
ernments in this country to-day instead,
of one. That section had : given to the
army of the Union three quarters of a
million soldiers, and the majority of the
citizens of Tennessee had never breath
ed a disloyal breath. He did not believe
that the method of investigating these
war claims had been just and fair, or
that the same justice had been meted
out to to the Union men of the South
as to Union men of the North. He
would not vote for any bill that opened
the door to tbe payment to any one who
had been disloyal, but neither could he
favor any measure which like Mr.
House's substitute barred all claims
prior to 1866.
springer, oi Illinois, declared nis in
tention to vote for House's substitute
and he argued at length upon the pro
priety and advisability of relieving Con
gress of the consideration of private
claims and quoted some statistics to
show that during the past twenty years
52,164 bills had been introduced in Con
gress and printed at an expense of
$459,740. most of them being of a pri
vate character. He admitted the force
of the objection that the pending pro
position could not prevent a subsequent
Congress from adjudicating private
claims, and he trusted that before the
close of the 47th Congress a constitu
tional amendment would be proposed
in relation to the subject. The matter
then went oyer and Bowman, of Mas
sachusetts, gave notice that he would
call the previous question at 2 o'clock
to-morrow.
The House then at 4 30 took a recess
until 7.30, the evening session to be for
the consideration of the pension bill.
The Liberal Alliance.
Greensboro North State.
The Raleigh News says that " a ma
jority of the Republican State Execu
tive Committee advised an alliance with
the liberal movement."
The only liberal movement talked
about in the committee was a coalition
with the "Whiskey Deleras Associa
tion," or the "anti-Prohibition Commit
tee. That was not advised, as the
friends of that course concluded to let
the wnole thing go to the State Conven
tion. Mr. Sorrell the Secretary of the
anti-Prohibition Executive Committiee
acted as Secretary of the Republican
Committee on the 18th. Tha fact that
Tom Cooper and Mr.Sorrel are the off
icers of the anti-Prohibition Commit
tee or -neaa men ' or tne lioerai move
ment, shows that the Republicans have
a "soft thing" if they want to coalesce
with the liberal Republicans who run
anti Prohibition.

. . . , ""V . I ment in the caflfl nf thfi TTnitd Sfarps
tect tne riparian uwueis uu tu ixiioaio-
sippi from the effects of overflows on
the ground that the government being
the owner of the stream was obligated
to see that its property did not injure
tbe property of others.
Harrison asked whether upon this
principle the government would not be
compelled to levee the Ohio and other
navieable streams liable to overflow.
Vest replied that the work belonged
to the States individually when they
had the resources for its performance,
but that when by reason of the im
mensity of the area devastated the
States could not do the work the con
stitutional requirement upon Congress
to provide for the general wel
fare, whether that welfare con
sists in the preservation of one
or more streams became applicable.
He asserted it to be the duty of the
Government not only upon constitu
tional grounds but upon every consid
eration of statesmanship and patriot
ism, not only to levee tne Mississippi
but to keep the levees in repair for the
benefit of the commerce of the nation.
Morgan favored the restriction of the
bill applying the money solely in the
deepening of the channel of the river
and against its use for protection of
private property.
Kellogg made an ineffectual effort to
secure the unanimous consent to an
agreement for a vote on the bill on
Monday, Pendleton objecting, the bill
was laid over on the orders as unfinish
ed business.
Pending the consideration of a bill to
extend a patent, a personal controversy,
brief but animated, occurred between
President, pro temn Davis and Hoar.
The latter rose to respond to an inqui
ry addressed to Piatt, who was occupy
ing the floor when the Chair Davis
interrupted him with "the Senator from
Massachusetts is not in order."
Mr. Hoar quickly retorted, "I do not
think it is the function of the Chair to
interpose such an injunction, if the
Senator who has the floor does not see
fit to do it."
The Chair asserted that "it was his
function to maintain order and that in
his efforts to administer the rules he
was treating all members alike "
Piatt expressed his willingness to
yield to Hoar, but the Chair ruled that
the "former having taken his seat had
forfeited his right to the floor, and that
Hoar could notproceed except by unan
imous consent.
After a few words as to the power of
the Chair to call a Senator to order,
Hoar moved to amend the bill by
striking out the last word, and being
entitled to sneak on the motion said
that if in his impatience he had made
any disrespectful utterances to the
Chair he regretted it. The usual deco
umof the Senate was restored and the
discussion proceeded.
The pending resolution of Vance for
the appointment by the President of the
Senate of three Senators to investigate
the eharges and complaints against the
internal revenue officials in the sixth
collection district of North Carolina,
with power to compel the attendance of
witnesses, eta, was adopted by the Ex
ecutive session.
Adjourned until Monday.
House. Calkins, of Indiana, chair
man of the committee on elections, sta
ted that h ewould not call up any of
the contested election cases to-day,
but would do so during the early part
of next week.
On motion of Kenna, of West Virgin
ia, a bill was passed fixing the second
Tuesday in October as the time for the
election of Congressmen from that
State.
Tbe House proceeded to the consid
eration of the special order, being a bill
"to afford assistance and relief to Con-
Se8s and the Executive departments
the investigation of claims and de
mands against the government." It
empowers either house of Congress or
the head of any department to transfer
claims to the Court of Claims for the
ascertainment of facts, such claims af
ter such ascertainment to be reported
to Congress.
House, of Tennessee, dwelt upon the
necessity of relieving Congress fiom
the consideration of private claims, and
advocated the adoption of a substitute
for the pending bill, providing that any
person naving a claim against tne uni
ted states in respect- of which he de
sires relief by special act of Congress,
and of which the Ceurt of Claims could
not tinder the existing law take juris
diction may, before applying to Con
gress for such relief, ilea petition in
that court, stating the facts on which
the relief is sought, and the court Bhall
find the facts as established by evidence
and report the same to either house of
Congress.
