A proposition vi 111 likolj bo nuelo In eon-
grebs to adopt u unifoim style for the pi-lut
ing of all clisbesof govornuiont publications.
At present congress hlmply innte appropria
tions for doing ccitalu woik , nnd it is an ev.-
icption when anj directions are gi\en in the
law as to the style of printing , blndlni ? or
paper for aerovtrnment ixibllcatloii. It thus
happens that whllo congress nay authorize
the publication of a dozen works at thu faaino
time , they nro naturally all eif llio sumo gen
eral chirneter , th.it there may bo eight or ten
distinctive styles as to width of form , tjpo ,
Ink , piper anel binding. Tlio nets mo niiulo
without respect to classification or general
eliar.ietor.
It has been suggested anelvlth very great
propriety , too that tbo government
should adopt a uniform atjlo for all
of its publications , so thnt the eye vvlllbo-
e'oino accustomed to the government worlc ,
and nt the slightest glance can distinguish it
fiom that done by private individuals A
hill may bolnttoducrd In rongiess to this ef
fect. Mr. M. AV. . Lewis , ono of the oldest
and most skillful pivssnien Iu the govern
ment printing cHIco , has suggested thnt it
would bo viell for the government to have all
of Its books published iu either quarto or
octavo size , nnd that for nil ordinary
work a cciuiin grade of paper should bo
used , nna for all tlnoork another grade
adopted ; also tint for lint-class work u cer
tain style of bindingshouU boeniplojoel ; for
Instance , nrortjiln grade of sonio character of
leather , whllo for the other Kiiido a certain
color and class of ir islln 01 other fubiic
thouli ] bo usoel. By doing tills tbo govern
ment can nmlio u great naving in bujlng
paper and binding goods , and ono can reallly
ilctccUUo character t ( book ho wants from u
n. largo number of books , ( is the stvlo will
mark it from other publications , The gov

adopted this plnnimt , ( they flnil that It works

aid of the Industrial C'hristlan Homo asbocia-
tlon in Utah ( which w at , established for the
pmtectloii of Mormon women to escape from
polygamy ) piovoked n long discussion.
Mr. Coclaoll siild it hid never had more
than twenty In.nntes
Mr. IMmunds ndfflttCLl that not many
Slormou Avoincji took atUantngo of the home ,
hut it was an open invitation to them.
Mr. Vests.dd the Ko\crnnient had appro
priated $50,000 , for the homo and congress was
now asked to appropnato4ono a jear for no
other purpose than topny the salaries of a lot
of people who ln.1 managed to obtain an np-
piopriutlon under the pictonsoof phil.intro-
nhy. Itas a notonoas fact , ho s lid , that
thu women of Utah wcro more opposed to
doing a\vny with polygamy than thomon
Uhis uiosonot fiom sensuality or from anj *
digradcd feeling , but fiom roliglous senti
meat. Senator Pomeroy hud an Idea that
suffr.iKO ought to be given the women of Utah
so they could escape from polygamy. They
got it and everj one of them votcel the polyg-
ninlst ticket.
Mr. Edmunds admitted that the women of
Utah voted that way but Itviis on the simo
principle that colured men voted the demo
cMtic ticket probably fiom icllgious enthu
siasm
In the course of the discussion Sir. Vest
resented the diift of some remarks of Mr
IMmunds as to his ( Vest's ) uniform opposi
tion to niitl-Moimoii legislation. Ho said ho
fliis ni much opposed to poljganiy ns any
one , but ho fauid there v\as a line beyond
vhie-hho would not go.
Mr , I'luinb expressed the opinion that the
homo was nn utter fi luie , and said ho hid
found that to bo the general view in Salt
Like
Mr ndmunds admitted tint the senator
from Kansas , like other righteous men who
hid Rene among sir mpo plaees , had fallen
among men who didn't tell the tiutli Ho
ltnethoio was a certain opposition to the
homo In Silt I/iko because tlio propurt ) was
wanted for speculative purposes.
This led to awarmpeisonal colloquoy be
tween Messr.s. Udrnunds and Plumb , which
listed some time.
The amendment vas finally airrced to , also
mio inserting tin item for the pivmcnt of
> H , r > to the widow of the late Chief Justieo
\Vaito \ , the bnhnco of hlsyeai's silary
The amendment as to the piopoicd Latin-

proposed by Mr TIiwloj hy striking out tlio
provision for a building coating $ . )00,0)0 ( ) and
by substituting a piovlsion for a section of

After the adoption of some further amend
ments the bill was reported to the senate and
all amendments agieod to In ronnnlltcuof the
\vhololnbulkcxe-eptth050 \ as to the irriga
tion survey. Discussion on the Inlgation
question occupied an hour's time and then
the nmomiinonts svero agreed to.
Mr Edmunds mo\od to stillco out of the
Item for a viaduct at the Hoc lc Island bridge
the proviso relating to the law that required
the elly of Hock Ishnd to contribute ono-hnlf
ttio expense. Agreed to.
Mr ICdmunds then moved to strlko out the
Item of ? Kl,000 ) for the further development
of tlio water sewer pool at Hock Island.
Mi ( Jutlorn protested ,
Mr. Edmunds offciod to withdraw the mo
tion if the paragraph was so modified us to
make it subject to the conditions of the act of
October ! ! , IbM , relating to ho teionstmction
of the government dam at Rock Island and to

Mr. Cullom assented and the paragraph

the prohlbltoty liw of Iowa \\.IH not enforced -

on niccont visit to his stuto ) that there were

least ho had not seen one , nor hid hohoaul
of ono being there until ho returned to Wash
ington.
Mr 1'ciklnsof K msm believed In the con
stitution ility nnd propriety of the pw-
posed legislation. This was not a question
of prohibition or of high or low
HeoiKo. Itn3 a question whether the states
had a right to protect their homo * , thvshlos
and families from the unlicensed , un
