■CALI. OK THE DEMOCRATIC COM-

The national democratic execu-
| five committee to-day issued the fol-
1 lowing call:
“The national democratic commit-
tee having met in the citv of Wash-
ington on the 23rd tlay of February,
I 1880, has appointed Tuesday the
I 22nd day of June next as the time,
i and has chosen the city of Cinciu-
| nati as the place of holding the 11a-
1 tional democratic convention. Each
j state is entitled to 1 representation
j therein equal to double the number
[ o( its senators and representative in
the United States congress. All
j democrats, conservatives and other
J citizens of the United States, irre-
1 spective of past political associations
[ or differences, who can unite with
us in the effort to secure an economi-
cal am! constitutional government,
are cordially invited to join in send-
ing delegates to the convention. At
the last national democratic conven-
tion, held in the city of St. Louis, in
1S76, the following resolutions was
adopted:
Resolved, That stat es he request-
ed to instruct their delegates to the
national democratic convention to he
held in 1SS0 whetherit he desirable
to continue the two-thirds rule long-
er in force in the national conven-
tion, and that the national conven-

senate.
Senators Kernan, Platt, Baldwin
and others presented petitions for the
reduction of duty on chemicals used
in the manufacture of paper.
Mr. Jones presented a joint reso-
lution of the legislature ot Louisiana
requesting an appropriating for the
improvement of the mouth of Red
river.
Mr. Vest presented a petition,
signed by over 5000 citizens of Mis-
soni i, Kansas, Arkansas and Texas,
praying for sucli legislation as may
be necessary to open the Indian Tei-
ritory to settlement, on terms just to
the Indian tribes and honorable to
the government. Also a memorial
of various chiefs and heads of fami-
lies of the confederate Peoria and
Miami tribes, praying for such leg-
islation as may abolish tenure in
common and to give Indians title in
severalty in the Indian Territory.
Mr. Vest, in presenting these pe-
titions, made a tew remarks, in
which he pronounced as false the
statement that Jay Gould and others
were lobbying to secure the opening
ot tire Indian Territory to settlement.
He knew of no such lobby, but the
man must he a lunatic who thought
the Indian Territory should remain
much longer a blank on the map of
civilization. He bespoke for early
action on the hill on which he want-
ed shortly a report from the commit-
tee on territories.
Mr. Butler, of South Carolina, in-
troduced a joint resolution to furnish j

HOUSE.
Mr. Reagan, of Texas, rising to a
question of personal privilege, sent
to the clerk’s desk and had read an
j article in the New York Sun, of the |
; nth ir.stant, stating that he, aschair-
! man of the committee on commerce,
i had involved himself in trouble in
regard to the inter-state commerce \
hill, and that he had charged that
improper influence had been used to
defeat his bill, and that the speaker j
had stocked the committee so as to
secure its defeat. He declared the
statement was a gross prevarication
I of the truth, which showed a desiie
! to keep odium upon him. It was j
1 not true as stated that the commence
! committee had rebuked him. It was
I not true that the speaker had called
upon him to retract any assertion
which he had made. It was not true
that the committee had deliberated
whether or not it should censure him.
The article, be thought, was appar-
ently made to bring ojium upon him
in order to defeat a great measure
with which his name had been cou-
pled, but he should continue in spite
of these false and infamous attacks to
fightout faithfully to the end the Tat-
tle of the people against the great
corporations of the country.
Alter some further remarks from
Speaker Randall and Messrs. Mc-
Lane, Wite, and Kernan, public
business was resumed.
The speaker laid before the house
a message from the president, trans-
mitting a communication of the at-
torney-general, asking for the appro-
priation for the payment United
States marshals. Printed and refer-
red.
The house then adjourned.
From San Antonio.
Special to the Dalian Heralds
San Antonio, Feb. 24.—The ac-
tion of Governor Roberts in com-
muting the death sentence of John
Lana ham, the murderer of Georgia
Drake, August, 1S78, is very severe-
ly criticized by the daily papers; for
the same petition that saved the
villain’s neck from the hangman’s
halter may turn him loose again
upon society, to vvieck the dire ven-
geance he has so openly boasted that
if he could have a fair show at one
or two others he would Ire content
to hang. The murder was truly
cowardly and was dastardly planned
and executed with a fiendish delight.
It was done even when the poor and
beautiful but eriing woman cried
out, “John, don’t kill me, please,
sir.” He denied to her the wailing
appeal of a sinful woman standing
on the very brink of eternity, with-
out hope, and yet the governor has
pardoned him.
