BEBSAKD. WILMINGTON, N. C. Morvin Fee. 1, 1891 WILL THEY TRY IT AGAIN? It is said that Senators Hoar and Spooner have not yet despaired of carrving the Force bill through but are biding their time to call it up later in the session when pressing business shall have been disposed of They are not willing to concede that the vote on the gag resolution is a test vote on the Force bill nor rWUivp nf its fate. Ihere is no doubt whatever that they will call it up again and will force it through if they can, for they are smarting under the repulses which they have met with and don't like to acknow ledge themselves vanquished. They have been confident in their boasts that they would carry it through and after alftheir boasting defeat is humiliating. Whether it is to be brought to the front again does not depend so much on how Hoar, Spooner, Aldrich, Ed munds and some others feel about it, as upon how certain other Senators feel about it, and whether they can count on votes enough to bring it before the Senate again and pass it if it comes to a vote, for they with the experience they have already had yill not care to, go it blind, take the chances and run the riskjf an other layout. We don't believe they can succeed in bringing it before the Senate again for debate. We believe there are Senators who supported it be cause it was a caucus measure who feel a sense of relief since it has been hung up. With these and the Re publican Senators who have not hes itated to avow their opposition to it and the Democratic vote against it we don't believe they can succeed in calling it up. The applause of the thinking peo ple of the country which greeted the quashing .of the gag scheme has con firmed the opposition of these West ern Republican Senators to the Force bill, for it was generally understood and accepted throughout the country that the gag was introduced with a sole view to the Force bill and to make its passage possible. Senator Stanford, whose absence and failure to vote gave the opponents of the gag the one majority by which it was displaced, has declared his position While favoring a rule for the closure of debate on general principles, to apply to all measures which come before the Senate, he is opposed to closure for a limited specified period and to apply only to special mea sures. That's the kind of closure Aldrich's gag was, and that's why Sandford does not support it. With out his vote they can t carry it through. They have one more possible chance. If Senator Hearst, who is fatally ill, should die, they might take advantage of his death to get the vote of the Republican Senator with whom he has been paired. That, if thev can hold their forces m as they stood when the vote on tuc gag was taken, would make tne sen ate a tie and give the casting vote to Vice President Morton who recently put on and now wears the Force gang's collar. The silver Senators of the West are more interested in the Silver bill than they are in the Force bill. They do not expect the bill which passed the Senate to pass the House, but they do expect that it or some thing similar to it will pass the next Congress, and it is good policy for them, even if they were notctuated by principle, to keep on good terms with the Democrats who will control the next House of Rep resentatives, and with the Demo cratic Senators whose votes carried the Silver bill through this time. For this reason, even if the gag rule Ko ncr1 atrainst them if lUliillt llUl "Ov c they opened the way in the luture fnr it hv o-ivin&r it a foothold now, thev will not change front on it Without the gag, even it the .force bill were brought up for considera tion again it would be impossible Jf- frr rhfre is no WaV of closing debate and bringing it to Trr. vcirhnnt unanimous consent, which they could never get. -All of the Democratic Senators who have not already spoken would want to make some broken remarks on it, and those who have spoken would desire to make some supplemental remarks, and Sen ators Stewart, Teller, Wolcott and possibly some other gentlemen from the free and breezy West might have some pointed, original and patriotic suggestions to make, all of which would take up as many work ing hours as the Senate would care to put in between now and the 4th of March next, when the Force bill fraud and the fraud-boosting 51st Congress would simultaneously col lapse, fizzle out and expire, so to to speak. It is possible that fossil Hoar and Spooner, the relegated statesman from Wisconsin, may succeed in carrying this infamy through. It is also possible by a first-class miracle that the statue of the Goddess of Liberty which surmounts the dome of the capitol may turn to a June bug and fly away, but there is not " i much likelihood of her doing it any time soon. When she does then we will begin to believe that they can get that Force bill infamy through. MINOR MENTION. President Harrison lost both his head and his manners when the gag resolution was quashed in the Sen- ate. He has never treatea tne re publican Senators who are opposed to the Force bill with any respectfuL consideration, and as a consequence these Senators are not very frequent callers at the White House. It is said that when he learned that Sen ator Ingalls would not vote for the Force bill, he issued orders to his henchmen in Kansas that Ingalls must be beaten, and such Republi can votes as these henchmen could influence were cast against him. He has never had any use for Senator Cameron, because he is opposed to the Force bill, and manifested it in a way a few days ago which showed not oniy lack of sense but disgusting boorish man ners. Two Stafe" Senators from Pennsylvania, who had voted for Cameron's re-election, visiting Wash ington called to pay their respects to the President. His greeting was the gruff inquiry, "Am I to understand that Pennsylvania is still a Republi can State?" And before the dazed callers could recover their breath to reply, he added, "good day," and turned on his heel. Of course all the dumbfounded Pennsylvanians could do was to retire, wondering whether they had encountered the President of the United States or some statfle boss who had slipped into his clothes The new Aooortionment bill, as it has passed, increases the represen ! ! tation in the lower House of Con gress by twenty-four members more than at present, these twenty-four additional members being distributed as follows : States.

A 1893, after the next electors nave been chosen. There will be an in crease however, in the number of electors in the next Electoral Col lege to correspond with the repre sentation from the six new states which have een admitted since the last Presidential election. Nineteen electors will be added, making the next Electoral College consist of 420 instead of 401 as the last Electoral College did. Bribery seems to be the order of the day in the new States of the Northwest. When the balloting for U. S. Senator was going on in- the Washington Legislature a friend of candidate Squire arose, struck an attitude, and sent to the Speaker s desk $500, which he said had Deen nut into his hands with the express Understanding that he should vote for the other fellow. Five hundred . . ... . . i dollars wasn't enough to buy him. t It was publicly charged that Sena tor McConnell, of Idaho, paid $16, 000 cash for votes enough to elect him, and then was unlucky enough to draw the short term. But South riitora -rnmes to the front as the ivaivvvM most inviting field for the venal Solon that we have yet struck. Ac cording to the report of an investi gating committee the offers run all the way up from $500 to "anything you want" for a vote for Senator. Considering the spirited bidding it is not surprising that a good many ballots are taken and that the votes are scattering. STATE TOPICS. The Legislature of North Carolina takes it place in line with Virginia in making the birthday of Gen. Robert E. Lee a legal holiday. This is a fit tribute to the memory of one whose name is not only a treasured inheri tance to the South, but should be to the whole country. The grand leader of the Southern armies, he not only sTied imperishable lustre on the South, but did honor to American valor, and gave a character to his tory great in triumph, equally great in defeat, of which any nation or peopie might be proud. As Virginia and Torth Carolina have done, and ft believe Georgia, all the other - - ' tates do, and honor themselves jn so joing. BOOK NOTICES.

Enormous Profits Made in this Industry. Norfolk Virginian. The profits of this business should stimulate the people of Virginia and North Carolina to make large invest ments in iron and steel-making en ternrises. The facts, not theories, presented in the article below, from r - - -r y r 7- I the New York journal oj finance, should persuade the people of the two States that they point to an un failing road to wealth, as well as po litical power. The Journal says : "No other industrial interest, per haps, involves the employment to such extent of capital as all the van ous forms of iron and steel manu facturing call for. And in no other enterprise are there so many chances nf hmldingr ud great fortunes. The steel and iron industries have per mitted this being done, and immense accumulations of money have been derived from them. Steel and iron are of the highest importance to the manufacturing and commercial worlds. The universal use of iron needs no other comment than that it is an absolute necessity. Therefore, wherever great iron enterprises have been built un. great fortunes have followed. The centers of great iron and steel production have always be come the centres ot great wealth Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, in this country ; England, r ranee and oer manv in Kurone: all can attribute a goodly share of their great wealth - to the great iron anu sieei muusuics . . ' 1 l.J L- '. I that have been located there. "The profits in this business every- where else demonstrate ttre desira- bilitv of investments in Southern iron-making enterprises. While well- located and well-managed, furnaces yield large returns, probably even better results will come during the next few years from enterprises that turn out the finished iron and steel. The enormous profits of the business are shown in the record of earnings of Pittsburg iron and steel enter prises last year as given by Mr. Nicholas Dale, who claims that his figures are entirelv correct. Mr. Dale's list is of twenty-five estab lishments that turned out a total of 1.577.000 tons of muck iron and fin- ished product with a net profit of. &19 703 000 It would be almost N?-"-"! ' . impossible to believe the correctness of ?hes figures but for the fact that the whole State ot Pennsylvania nab grown enormously wealthy out ot its iron industry. So enormous, in tact, have been the profits of this business that the annual value of the manu factured nroducts of that State eauals the value of the manufac tured products of the entire four teen Southern States Maryland to Texas. THE BANK OF JAPAN. The System About Identical With That of England. Chicago Tribune. "No, the banking system of Japan is not exactly like that of America, but my bank, the Bank of Japan, is managed something similar to the Bank of England, said G. Nagas aki, a Tapanese financier, who is reg istered at the Palmer house. The visitor is here looking over the bank ing system of the United States. "The Bank of Japan never lends money direct to the individual," con tinued Mr. Nagasaki; ".beiore any loans are made the notes must first be indorsed by some private banking concern, me interest cnargea Dy our establishment is 5 per cent., but the smaller concerns charge from 7 to 10 per cent. The national debt is $20,000,000, and the bonds that are issued for this amount pay from 5 to 7 per cent. It is the pensions of the ex-military men of the feudal times and their families that keep the coun try in debt. The Japanese banker said the re cent stringency in the money market was felt in his country, and were also a few failures. "But the failures are not so frequent as in America," he said, "because we do not speculate so much." Mr. Nagasaki also said that the only money m circulation in Japan was silver com and silver certificates. Gold, he explained, was only used for foreign exchange. The capital stock of the Bank of Japan is $20,000,000, but the con cern has the privilege, the visitor said, of issuing $85,000,000 in bonds. All the revenues of the government are paid into this bank.
