THE OMAHA DAILT BEE : SATURDAY , NOVEMBER 2-1 , 1801. ONE SCORE YEARS AND TEN Bervioo in the House of Repiesen- tatiyes that Han Never Been Beached , HON , BILL HOLMAN MAY YET TCUCH I ! Hit Chance DopenUi on Ills Llvtnjj Until tin End of Illi I'rcnent Trrm In Mnrch somn oftlieOUl llor * of the Senate. WASHINGTON UUIIEAU OP T1IU DEE 1407 V Street , N.V. . WASHINGTON , Nov. 2 ! There la a tradition that no man ha served thirty jears In the house of rcprc ftontatlveg , but there seems likely to be a exception to the rule. At the beginning ( tlio Flfty.lhlrd congress William S. Holma of Indiana and Clmrles O'Neill of 1'emisy vanla had served twenty-eight years eacl ami both of them were Inclined to belle\ that they might live , to complete the ten of continuous service which the miperst tloua have always regarded as the dangi line of age In statesmanship In this countr ; Mr , O'Neill waa always temperate and car ful of his physical condition , but he fe before tlio relentless decree of time , whi Mr. Holman , who Is careless of his licall and not \\holly temperate In his manner living , hat lived through the long ter of congress , has vigorously engaged In political campaign , lias suffered defeat In h old age. and Btlll appears to b strong ai capable of fu thcr service. It U quite like that he nlll live until March 4 next , wh < ho will have completed thirty years of eer Ice In the house of representatives ; and I might have had health and strength to i beyond that tnbocrd limit It he had bei elected for another term. Tlio late Wlllln 1) . Kelly of Pennsylvania wus , like AI O'Neill , beginning a term which would ha resulted In thirty years of continuous servlc but he died before the completion of th term. There are statesmen who have servi more than thirty years In both houses of co grcss ; but tlio thirty-year limit Is appll only to the house of representatives. Sun tor Merrill of Vermont , has solved co tlnuoiisly for forty years , but the long time of that service 1ms been In the senai Senator Harris of Tennessee first carte to congress forty-four years ago ; but seceded from the union and remained an from Washington for nearly half a doz years ; but he came back and holds what m bo termed the championship title for Ung of service In Statecraft. Ho Is the only si vlvlng member of the Thirty-first congrt now In public llfo. There , will be > ery field old timers left In the next house of rcpi sentatlves. The patriarchs cling to the sc ate , and every representative who desli to remain In congress tries to break into t senate It there Is any show for him. SOMK OF THE ACTIVE OLD TIMERS The senators who have been longest In i live service In that body are John Shermr Ohio , thirty yearn ; Justin S. Merrill of V < mont , twenty-eight years ; Matt W. Ilans ( of North Carolina , twentythreeyears ; W Ham I ) . Allison of Iowa and John I * . Jonci Nevada , twenty-two years each ; Francis Uockrell of Missouri , twenty years ; Islu Q. Harris of Tennessee and Daniel W. Voi liecs of Indiana , eighteen years each. Tin gentlemen are apparently as strong and w ns they were when they first came to I Belial's with the exception of Senator M rill , who manifestly feels the weight of : four-score and four years. Senator Sli man Is In his "I'd year and appears to ns strong and wiry and vigorous ns hu 1 ever been. He announces , however , that will never again seek the piesldentlal not nation of his party because of his a Senator AlllKon docs not appear to be in than 45 years of age , for ho Is as sturdy t agile as ever before in Ills life , and yet states In the Congressional Directory the ho was born In 1829 , and Is theietorc 65 ye of age. Ho Is a man of powerful physlq built to last almost another generation , i less a cold or pneumonia should sudde nssall him , as stocky men arc so often tnl when they least expect It. Senator Hai Is one of those bony , muscular men v show no signs of age , eave In the color their hair , and Senator Harris long si parted company with all of his hair , e\c a moustache , which Is grizzly gray i fierce as an army with banners. Sena Sherman had been longest In continuous se Ice In the- senate , but Senator Morrlll scr twelve years In the house , whllo Sena Sherman only served sK years In the lo1 branch of congress , and consequently Se tor Morrll ) h the patriarch of congn Mr. Holman says that he Is the last o guneiatlon In the house of represent : * ! ! and that the next congress will mark absolutely now era In our country , been the house of representatives and senate be composed principally of rcpresentatl and senators chosen by a generation of i who wore born during and since the c war. _ _ _ _ _ DELAYS 01' Till !

NI.IIKASKA INDIANS STAONATUO. Ag < nl Complain that ( ho Tribe * An MrfKIni : no I'mgrrm. WASHINGTON , Nov. 23. James Clements Indian agent at the Santce agency In Nc braska , presents a phase of the Indian prob 1cm which \\III give those In charge ot civil ( zing the Indians some concern , as clvlllza tlon clusters about the Indians either on th reservations or after they have taken thrl lands In severally. Ho says : "Hnvln spent nearly six years In the service 01 Ilosebud agency , where the Indians malntal their tribal relation ? , previous to Inkln charge here , I had come to the concluslo that these Indians were easily managed ; bu on assuming duty here , where thty have become como citizens , I have changed my mind an found Ihcm inoro dlrflcull lo manage than expccled. Agency control and rules cor fllct with state laws and citizenship. W are under county organization and the India Is told he Is a citizen and has all the right of a citizen. Ho pays taxes on his person ; property , still the county objects to payln the coats on Indian misdemeanor cases. An tlio agent has no power to punish except t discriminate against him In Issues. "Hut the most trouble arises from Inlox cation. The Indians have but llltlo trout ) ' to get what they want. The Indian love liquor and will fell anything to get It. I some ot the neighboring towns they rathi encourage than discourage this traffic. Tr complaint then comes that the agent Is n < doing his duty by allowing these Indians ' get drunk , but they do not tty to stop tl man who cells It to thorn. In this the slal laus ot Nebraska conflict with the feder so the agent IB powerless. "From what I see and learn from respons bio parties Ihsre has not liecn much nil vane merit made In general In the past few year morally , financially or otherwise. " Mr. Clements also makes a suggestion i to Indian payments : "Although I am bi a short time In charge hsre yet 1 believe can safely say that It would ba to the 1 tcrcst of these people to pay them In cash lieu of annuity and agricultural goods. Tin make but little use of the clothing ; thi trade It oft for what they can gel. You w see bul few men wearing the Issued clot Ing. And I think It would also be better gl\o them cash In place ot cattle , as tin have but a limited outlet , nnd trouble arls from trespass on their while nelghboi properly. They will dispose of them nt le than half their cost In order to get rid trouble. Giving them what Is duo them cash would , I believe , help to advance the In civilization. I believe the Issuing goods and rations Is only making so mai trained beggars , and has a dcmorallzh effect. " Captain William H. Beck of the Ten cavalry , acting agent nt the Omaha ai Wlnnebago agency In Nebnska , gives t following rather discouraging view of India who were supposed to be In quite a slale aihancement : "Tho Omahas and Wlnr bagos bolh contlnu ? to carry out many the customs which are In antagonism their civilization. The older members both tribes keep up their dancing \v dances , medicine dances nnd others which they appear costumed as they we years ago. They antagonize the form marriage under the state law ; they requl the younger people to return to theIndl mode of dress , even after they have be away from the reservation to school.

WASHINGTON , Nov. 23. Secretary State Greshom , In behalf of the United Stat and Minister Kurlno ot Japan , In behalf his country , have affixed their signatures u now- treaty o'f amity and commerce betwe this country and Japan. The final formallt In the execution of the Instrument occuri at the State department late yesterday aft noon after the close of office hours. Wr the last formalities were closed yesterday 1 State departnfcnt bulldlcs "was deserted , < cept the private offices of the secretary state , where the Interesting ceremony v transacted. Secretary Gresham will now transmit i new treaty to the United States senate soon as It convenes and Mr. Kurlno will f ward It to the Japanese foreign office to approved by the emperor ot Japan and privy council. Coming at the present time , the signing the treaty is considered ot much slgnlflcai beyond Its actual terms , as It establishes cordiality between the countiles when fore powers are endeavoring to show that Japa rejection of the peace meditation was "snub" to the United States. To Japan the signatures are of supre Importance , as the country estimates Its r scries of treaties as quite as Important as war It Is now conducting. When the Jap ; cse minister at London recently conclui the new treaty with Great Britain the c ptror ot Japan at once decorated him w the highest orders ot the empire and van cod him to the nobility. The signing the treaty concludes a labor which has b In progress for fifteen years , through admlnlitr.tlo a ot sc\er 1 Jannese mlrl t and It was with a speoal view to closing long negotiation that Mr. Kurlno was ta' from an Important post In the Japan foreign office and sent to Washington. The event will also cause much comm In Great Britain , France , Switzerland i other foreign countries , as the action ut United States affects similar treaties nine That with Great Britain W < 1os"d and th with France and Switzerland tro lairfly pendent upon the closing of the Amui negotiations. The chlct feature of the new treaty Is Its recognition of Japan as n clvlllreil coun Previous treaties ha\e assumed the nai courts were M ) primitive nnd punishment ; biutal that It would not bo safe to li Drllish , American and oilier foreign cltlz to their Jurisdiction. The now treaty i recognizes tlio Japanese courts and docs a' ' with the offensive foreign courts , nut , is order that time may bo given for Japanese Judicial system to bo further i fccted , the date when they assume t : new functions Is postponed for flve years , i ot till January 1 , 1839. ilt The same provision Is In the -treaty \ lit Great Britain and In those about to be < to eluded with France , Switzerland and ol IB- countries , so the full recognition of Jap , he civilization will be ushered In with ist twentieth century. The restriction istof Japanese Immigration to this country Is an Important feature of the new Ire Japan has readily assented to this , beca Is- as she claims , her citizens are not desli Ish : , of emigrating In largo numbers to Ame ck and also because a Japanese law prohl Kh them from emigrating contrary to the Am Ir- can contract labor law. The trade features of the treaty are sal bo framed with a view to developing , commerce of both countries. In prev treaties Japan has been restricted to 5 cent ad valorem of American Imports and actual collections at the customs houses I been about 3 per cent ad valorem. The e : terms of the new arrangements are known. The treaty also gives Amerl < ity greater property rights In Japan , nllov them the privilege not heretofore grai of leasing lands In the Interior of Japar well as nt the treaty ports and allowing property rights except the right to own 1 \n In fee simple. he on Aiikcil for rnrtinrntlnii Kltro. 113 WASH1NC5TON.

WASHINGTON , Nov. 23. The controversj between the sugar growers of the country am the United States government , growing out o the repeal of the bill granting a bounty o 16 a ctnt pound on all sugars grown In tin United States and territories by the new tarll bill , and the subsequent refusal of the Treas ury department to pay bounties upon th' ' sugar grown In the present year , reached th first stage In progress to definite legal settle ment today. J. Archibald Murray , an attor ney of New York , filed today In the court o claims three suits Identical In character an all seeking to recover from the govcrnmen sums of money alleged to be legally due th complainants as bounty upon sugar raise by them In the year 1891. The Chlno Val ley Beet Sugar company ot California sue for $4,131 ; the Norfolk Beet Sugar compan of New Jersey for $3,093 , and the Oxnar Heet Sugar company for $11,782. The com plaints are based upon the allegation that th United States , by the act of congress granl Ing a bounty of ' / & cent a pound upon a sugar grown In the United States and terr lories , enlered Into a legal contract with tli complainants , as well ns all other sugar grov crs , and led them by Its terms to utulertah the culture of beets and other plants froi which sugar Is obtained , but which could m have been profitably pursued without the bei clUs of such a contract. The claim Is furthi made that the crops of the complainants wei growing and the sugar resulting from the : was In process of making long before tl passage by congress of the measure repca Ing the provisions of the act granting1 tl bounty , and that the government has no rlgl to withhold the payment of the bounties a leged lo be due. The case will probably 1 pushed lo an early hearing In the court i claims and will then be taken to the Unite States court for final adjustment. U Is m derstood the suits are brought as test cas : and will be vigorously contested , as a amount of $11,000,000 Is at stake In the coi troversy. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ WOllK ON PENSION Al'PElLS.
