Washington, Jun. 29. On motion of
Mr. Sawyer the senate bill creating the
office of fourth assistant postmaster
lienerul with a salary of $4,000 a year
was taken from the calendar and
passed. . -
At the close of the morning hour the
senate proceeded to consideration of the
apportionment bill as unfinished business,
and Mr. Edmunds addressed the senate,
calling its attention to the fact that the
bill took no cognizance whatever of the
provisions of the fourteenth amend
ment to to the constitution, that, in
case the right of suffrage be denied or
ubridged in any state, the representation
of that state shall be diminished accord
ingly. The senate then proceeded to a vote on
the amendments proposed by the minori
tythe first being to increase the repre
sentation of Arkansas from 6 to 7.
The amendment was rejected yeas,
32; nays, 33. All the democratic sena
tors voted for the amendment and were
reinforced by five republican senators
Davis, McMillan, Paddock, Stewart and
Washburn.
The next amendment was to increase
the representation of Minnesota from
seven to eight. It was also rejected
veas 31, nays 32. In this vote Casey
voted with the democrats, of whom two
less voted than on the preceding vote.
The next amendment was to increase the
representation of Missouri from 15 to IS.
Rejected yeas 30, nays 38. The only
republicans voting aye on this amend
ment were Davis.I'addock and Washburn.
Casey, McMillin and Stewart voted no.
The next amendment was to increase
the representation of New York from 34
to 35. Rejected yeas, 21); nays, 38;
Davis and Paddock being the only re
publicans voting in the athrmative. Mr.
Davis then withdrew his amendment,
fixing the total number of representa
tives at 3G0.
Mr. Berry offered an amendment fixing
the total amount nt 359 and giving an
additional member to Arkansas, Minne
sota and New York, and desired to have
it voted on as an amendment. A divis
ion of it was, however, insisted on by
Mr. Hale.

made a report to the full committee to
the effect that in the states of Massachu

were deprived of their privilege of voting
by provisions in their state-constitutions.
It also called attention to n provision in
the South Carolina election law which re
quires registration as a prerequisite to
voting. 1 Ins, the report niltl, was a de
nial of the riiilit to vote, and the sub
committee recommended that an investi

of reducing the representation of these

BiKNos Aykhs, Jan. 29. Advices re
ceived here from Chili show that the in
surgents are steadily gaining ground.
Soon after the bombardment of the Port
ofCoquimbia the rebel forces occupied
La Zoi ina, the city of Coquimbia, with
out any opposition on the part of the
government troops, though thelntter oc
cupied Ln Zorina in force, being quar
tered in the hospitals, schools and other
public buildings.
The government troops, upon the ap
proach of the rebel forces from the Port
of Coquimbia, evacuated La Zorina and
retreated inland, thus placing a fine har
bor and a most advantageous base of
supplies in the hands of the insurgents.
NATIONAL lCni'CATORH.
Reduced Rates) to the Meeting
at
Toronto, Can.
Supt. Claxton, director of the National
education association for the state of
North Carolina, informs The Citizen
that the next meeting of the association
will be held in Toronto, Canada, luly
14-17. The council will meet at the same
place July 10-14.
The railroad rate for the round trip,
tickets good to return within ninety days,
will be one first-class fare about $23.50,
from Greensboro, and about $27.50 from
Asheville. To this must be added $2
membership fee, which will admit to nil
the privileges of the association, reduced
rates at the hotels, and a copy of the
hound volume of the proceedings of the
association. From Toronto very low
excuniion rates will be made to all parts
of the dominion, the great lakes, aud
points of interest in the United States.
This olfers an opportunity for a most
pleasant and prohtable summer excur
sion and it is thought that the attend
ance from North Carolina will be very
large.
Any one desiring further information
can obtain the same by applying to Mr.
v-inxton or to insicctor Jnmcs L. Hughes
of Toronto, Canada.
Mr. Claxton will take pleasure in eiv-
ng information ns to the meetimr of the
Southern education association at Look

first general meeting of Southern educa
tors, and will for that reason be doubly
interesting.
The special rates irivcn to those attend
ing will be such that the total cost from

AN ALDERMANIC TICKET.
A GOOD ONE SUGGESTED TO
"THE CITIZEN."
A Local Politician Gives Hl Opin
ion 011 the Matter and Names
Four Gentlemen Who, He
Thinks, Should be Nominated.
W. T. Reynolds.
M. . Beardkn.
Geo. S. Powell.
R. P. Foster.
It may be early for municipal politics,
but the above is a ticket which has been
mentioned to The Citizen.
The election for the city of Asheville oc
curs on the first Monday in May next.
At that election a mayor must be
chosen together with four aldermen.
The aldermanic board is composed of
six members, who Hold othce lour years.
Three of the members are elected at each
municipal election, Some months ago
one of the board, elected two years ago,
Mr. Lawrence Pulliam, resigned, and his
place was never filled by the board. So
at the next election the people must choose
four councilmen, to succeed Aldermen
Wolfe, Fitzpatrick and Miller and to fill
the vacancy caused by the resignation of
Mr. Pulliam.
It is generally understood that Mayor
Blanton will be the nominee of the demo
crats to be his own successor.
As to the aldermen. A lending local
politician in talking of the situation
said:
"It is somewhat early to talk politics,
but the importance of selecting good men
to fill the municipal offices is something
that cannot l)e overestimated. Mayor
Blanton should, I think, receive a renora
ination and election.
"But the board of aldermen, in my
opinion, cannot be too carefully chosen.
At this point in Asheville's history no
steps backward should be taken or
thought of. The city needs cool, level
headed, business men, who will work in
sympathy with the mayor, and while
keeping an eve on the city's financial
betterment, always enact such laws as
will build up the city, keep it built up
and in its proper place as the most im
portant city of North Carolina.
"While the retiring members of the
board arc conscientious, good men, I
think the needs of the city demand a
change and these men I have mentioned
are, in my mind, tbe best men the demo
cratic Party can put out. 1 refer to
Messrs. W. T. Reynolds, M. J. Bearden,
Geo. S. Powell and R. P. Foster.
"Every one of these gentlemen is well
known in Asheville, and without a doubt
are as good material as there is in the
ranks of the party.
"With this board the westward would
be represented by Mrs. Bearden. Powell
and Leonard, while the east ward would
have Messrs. Reynolds, Foster and
McDowell,
"Mr. Reynolds is known, and known
favorably, by almost every voter in the
citv. He is closely identified with Ashe
ville's interests, and is lor the city's good
first, lust and all the time.
"Of Mr. Bearden little need lie said, for
he is one of the most popular men the
citv has, and a man who would fill the
ofhee in a manner that would be greatly
to Asheville 8 advantage, tie has been
in business here for a number of years
and has made himself so popular that
there could lc no doubt of his election.
"Mr. Powell, who is alwavs first in
every movement for the good of Ashe
ville, would lie another wise selection.
With his calm deliberation and wise
councils the board would be a power for
the building up of the citv and the ad
vancement of every line of industry.
"Mr. Foster, although not haying
been in Asheville as long as the other gen
tlemen mentioned, is none the less popu
lar. He is SuiK'rintendent McBce's pri
vate secretary, is red-headed and a demo
crat dved in the wool, lie will 'do to
count on' when any question affecting
Asheville is brought up.
"That completes the list and I don't
believe Asheville could find four men bet
ter suited to steer the city for the next
two years. 1 would like very much to
see them nominuted by the convention
or primary, and am sure the nomination
would result in their election by a hand
some majority."
