Carolina Watchman. THUESDAY, APRIL 17. 1890. The Hall of Our Father3. THE EYRIE OP THE EAGLE BECOMES A BOOST FOR CROWS. "The Grand Campaign Committee, the Central National Campaign Com mittee ot the Republican Party, now sits supreme in the room of a nation's statesmen. Years ago statecraft had some relation to government. To-day bitter, remorseless, cowardly partizan methods aloue apply. Here are the imnm-hmt measures which have con sumed the entire session so far : The admission of sundry little State- leca. wicn a view ui uenwtuwuuK , " X & publican supremacy in the Senate.

We would suggest some automatic arrangement like a cigarette machine to Reed for doing this work. Helena, Montana, has just shown her appreciation of republican labors in her midst, in the direction of the Silver Bow steal, by giving a democratic gain of seven hundred.

With the assistance of the Greensboro North Statu the-Watchman arrives at the definite conclusion that W V. Webb, of Person county, Census super visor for this district ii a Republican. This being the case no Democrat can hope to secure place under him. Such applications as have been made may as well be recalled and the assurance added that they would not have been made had Webb's politics not been mistaken. Resolved by the Senate and House of Rep resentatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled. That the following amendment to the Constitution of the Uuited States be proposed to the legisla tures of the several States, which, when ratiueu by three-fourths of said legisla tures, shall become and be a part of the Constitution, namely: First.

(From oar regular correspondent .) Ex-Speaker Carlisle presented the minority report of the Ways and Means committee to the House.

The bill to appropriate $75,000 to make goo4 the money stolen by Sil cott is a law, and the Congressmen who lost their November salaries have all been paid. Representative Wilson, who ranks high among the democratic leaders of the House, says the republicans will certainly pass a Federal election law during the present session. If they do, it will have to be done by order of king caucus, because there are enough republicans in the House who are opposed to any such law to defeat it unless they are compelled by order of the party caucus to swallow their opinions and vote with the party. The republicans of both Senate and House have held caucuses within the hist few days trying to get together on the silver question. Secretary Win dom has brought all of his powers of persuasion into action in trying to have the caucus to adopt his silver bill, now before a House comraitte, but so far nothing is agreed upon. Between the anti-silver republicans and the free coinage republicans there is a wide chasm which will have to be bridged in some way before anything like unity can exist in the party on this subiect. in tne meantime the most of the dem ocrats hold themselves in readiness to vote for free coinage, pure and simple, if they can get an opportunity. The bill to. revise the grade of lieu tenant general of the Army has been reported favoraby to the senate. If it becomes a law it is expected that Gen. Schofield will at once be p omoted. The Torrey bankruptcy bill has been favorably reported to the House. This bill has beeu very highly spoken of by lawyers as being equally just, to both creditor and debtor.
