On motion by Mr. CULLEN it was -
Resolved, That Wm. H. Schlater be allowed fifty dollars for ten days services in the journal department of the Senate, and that the President if the Senate he and is hereby authorized to sign a warrant for that amount.
Mr. WOLCOTT offered the following:
A concurrent resolution tendering the thanks of this General Assembly to Governor Conrad Baker.
Be it Resolved by the General Assembly of the State of Indiana, That the thanks of this General Assembly, be, and they are hereby respectfully ordered to His Excellency Governor Conrad Baker, for the uniform urbanity, kindness and courtesy displayed by him in all his personal and official intercourse with the members of this General Assembly ; and for his zealous and faithful discharge of his official duties.
It was adopted.
Mr. OYLER offered the following:
Resolved, That T. G.Palmer be allowed five dollars per day during the present session for seeping the individual'accounts of the members and employees of the General Assembly.
Mr. TERRY moved to amend by striking out "five dollars," and inserting "two dollars and a half"
Mr. JOHNSON moved to lay the resolution and amendment on the table.
This motion was agreed to.
Mr. CHURCH offered a resolution, which was adopted, directing the Librarian to furnish the compiler of the BREVIER REPORTS with stationery, stamps, &c.as an appreciation of services.
Mr. OYLER offered the following:
A concurrent resolution, authorizing and instructing the Secretary of State, Auditor of State and Treasurer of State to rent offices for the State officers.
Resolved, By the Senate (the House concurring) that the Secretary of Stace, Auditor of State and Treasurer of State, be hereby directed and instructed, at the earliest practicable time, to rent suitable buildings for the offices of State officers at a price not exceeding three thousand dollars per year, said rending not to be for a longer time than the time of the completion of the building authorized by the act of this General Assembly.
Mr. HANNA moved to amend by inserting appropriately the words "His Excellency, the Governor," and these words: "if in their discretion it shall be deemed advisable and the best economy to do so " He desired to make it a question of economy.
Mr. OYLER accepted the amendment.
The resolution was adopted.
Mr. CRAVENS understood that there was an important measure defeated on Saturday, because its friends could not get a constitutional majority to suspend the page: 446[View Page 446] rules that the bill might be read the third] -time. He was absent on account of ill health, and now although too much indisposed to be in his seat, he desired as an act of justice to citizens in the southern par! of the State, to introduce a concurrent resolution to authorize the appointment of a commission, similar to the one proposed in the Morgan raid bill [H R 14].
The resolution was read.
It provides as follows:
The Governor shall appoint three Commissioners "to hear, determine and adjust all claims for losses which have heretofore occured by reason of the injury, destruction loss or impressment of property had or held by any inhabitant of the State of Indiana by rebel forces under the command of the rebel John Morgan in the year 1863 or caused by the State or National forces engaged in repelling said invasion, er caused by Organizing and equipping troop- to repel the threatened invasion of the State by the rebel forces under the command of Adam Johnson in the year 1864." The Governor shall also appoint an Attorney who shall be present, at all the meetings to project the interests of the State The Commissioners appoint a clerk.
Mr. TERRY moved to lay the concurrent resolution on the table.
Mr. CRAVENS was too much troubled with an affection of the throat to speak without great difficulty, but remarked that such a disposition of this proposition would be treating the people of Southern Indiana rather badly. He hoped the Senator would withdraw his motion to lay on the table.
Mr. TERRY thought we have had enough of the Morgan raid matter before us this session - it had been fairly disposed of, and he declined to withdraw his motion.
The motion was rejected.
Mr. BELLAMY denied that this question had been fairly met and settled, and recited the history of the bill to prove that he was not mistaken on this point. He hoped this resolution would pass.
Mr. CHURCH moved to amend the resolution by providing that not more tha $2,000 be used to defray the expenses of said commission.
Mr. THOMPSON was not opposed to this proposition, as represented by the r porter in this morning's JOURNAL. He said on Saturday that this was the proposition he made here himself one year ago, but. that he was hostile to a bill then pending, appropriating $300,000, not knowing to whom it was going or for what. He hoped the re porter would set him right on this question. He could see nothing unreasonable in this proposition. Our men, as well as Morgan's men, have robbed the people of their property, and now they are asking nothing but what is right of us in this resolution.
Mr. BENNETT regarded this as a direct attempt to get money out of the State Treasury. The friends of this measure have not been able to pass it, after repeated efforts during the past two sessions If there is a, quorum here now, and they have he power to pass it, they can do so, of course, but he intended to prevent it if he could. Indiana did not wage this war; it was waged by the United States, and it is their business, and not the business of Indiana, to look after these claims. It was with that view we passed a resolution the other day, memorializing Congress on this subject.
Mr. SHERROD (interposing By what means can Congress arrive at the tacts in the case?
Mr. BENNETT. Some gentleman in Congress from this State can get up and ask the appointment of a committee to attend to this matter on behalf of the government of the United States. It is right for Congress to make the investigation, but it is nor the business of the people of the State of Indiana to do it.
Mr JOHNSON was disposed to guard the State Treasury very closely, but thought t nothing more than right that we should jive this people the power to put their claims in such a shape, that they caw get their pay. He did not know that his constituents were interested in this matter, but would act justly toward this people as far as his vote would go.
Mr. SHERROD had been rather opposed to this measure, but in the simple form it is now presented he could not see how any Senator, disposed to do justice to any portion of the people of the State, can oppose it He had heard a great deal of talk about loyalty, and flouts of that kind bad been thrown out here, but he knew this people to be as loyal as any people of the State, and their action has proven it. He hoped the Senate would adopt the resolution without farther discussion.
Mr PARRISH could see no necessity for a resolution of this kind. It is already a provision of law that whenever property is taken by authority of the agents of the Government, the Government pays for it: out Senators now propose to open the door wide to pay for damages done by mere trespassers - a thing that never was done by any government. The Government pays for no losses of this kind, and what is the use of legislating on a subject of this kind while there are existing laws to reach every meritorious case?
Mr. HUFFMAN. The Senator has failed to read the acts of the Legislature of Kansas, or he would not speak as he does of governments not paying for property taken by trespassers. That State made appropriations to pay for property taken by the rebel General Price, and by the Indians in raids into that State. But this resolution does not ask the State to pay one cent of page: 447[View Page 447] these claims, neither does it ask the General Government, to pay one cent till the matter is fully investigated. Either the State or the General Government is in duty bound to pay them, and where is the gentleman who will rise in his place and say that just and honest claims should not be paid? He insisted that this matter should be investigated, and hoped the resolution would pass
Mr. HYATT thought it his duty to say something in behalf of this resolution. I there ever was a just claim before the Sen ate this was one, and he believed a similar proposition would have passed, years age if it had been fairly treated. Gentlemen can urge individual claims here, but when it comes to claims presented by a large portion of the people in the southern part the State it is insinuated that rebels are mixed up with them; and when they make that charge they say what is false and untrue. He would always vote to pay all just claims against the State; and there is not man on this floor that can say these claims are not just. Many of them belong to soldiers' widows, and they now ask that provision be made so that they can at some time get pay for property taken from them by the fate of war.
The $2,000 amendment was rejected.
Mr. CRAVENS, as intimated a few moments ago, had not the power to talk but a minute or two, but wished to say that as far as he was personally concerned this matter did not interest him to the amount often cents: and as far as his constituents were concerned if this Senate shall decide to go home without doing them justice, they can pocket their losses. Still there are citizens of counties in the Southern part of the State who are wholly unable to bear these losses. The Senator from Union [Mr. Bennett] says this is not a charge upon the treasury of the State. It may be that it is not, but it is a charge upon somebody. This people were so unfortunate as to occupy a position in the Southern part of the State, and all that prevented John Morgan from pursuing his raid to this Capital and laying it in waste was that this people were between him and you. Now all we ask is that this Committee may be raised to investigate these claims, and if they are a proper charge upon the general government, let us authorize a complete investigation of them and the people will then have the State of Indiana for their agent to press their claims upon the Treasury of the United States - as it is well known that thousand o'f claimant? would exhaust their entire claims in procuring counsel. If these claims are not chargeable upon the treasury of the general government, let us have it declared so by law, Injustice to the people of Southern Indiana be asked that a vote be taken on this proposition.
Mr. CHURCH, understanding from the friends of the measure that $8,000 would pay the expense of the proposed Commission, was willing to vote that amount if it would cost no more. Under the bill [H R. 14] he believed there was a chance tor expending $50,000, and of course he was opposed to expending that sum for this purpose. He moved to amend by providing that not more than $3,000 shall be used to defray the expenses ot said Commission.
Mr. CRAVENS accepted.
Mr. ENGLISH would not press this matter at this time did he not believe that a majority of the Senate were friendly to it. He cared not what people say about the loyalty of Southern Indiana. That portion of the State her people are ashamed of. His county never polled 2,300 votes, but it turned out 1,800 soldiers, and he loved to. honor her for it. He contended that it is nothing but just that the people there should have ail opportunity to show the country that what they claim is right.
Mr. BENNETT referred to the votes taken on the Morgan raid bill to show that t never did receive the support of a majority of this Senate - on the test vote it lacked three of a majority. While he had said that there were disloyal men in Southern Indiana, he never had made the charge that Southern Indiana was disloyal, for he well knew that many of the citizens there are as loyal and as true to the flag of our country as ever carried a musket - he had met them at home and upon the battlefield, and pronounced them as true and as loyal and as good soldiers as ever lived.
Mr BELLAMY demanded the previous question. The demand was seconded by 22 Senators.
The concurrent resolution was then adopted by yeas 27, nays 7 - as follows:
YEAS - Messrs. Bellamy. Bowman, Brown, Church, Cravens, Cullen, English, Gifford, ttanna, Huey, Huffman Humphreys, Hyatt, Johnson, Lewis, Mason, Oyter, Richmond, Robinson, Sherrod, Smith, Taggart, Thompson, Turner, Ward, Wolcott and Mr. President - 27.
NAYS - Messrs. Armstrong, Bennett, Cason, Milligan, Reagan, Rice, Stein and Terry - 8.
Pending the roll call -
Mr. STEIN was always willing to allow a sense of justice to overrule his feelings of resentment, and, notwithstanding his opposition to the bill [H R. 14] on Saturday light, he was understood to say that he would be happy to support this resolution if its terms were the same as those imposed upon Major Hall in 1855 [whose claim is embraced in Mr Stein's bill S 142]if the commission were raised without incurring any expense upon the State. As this reso- page: 448[View Page 448] lution involves an expense of $3,000 he would have to vote "no."
Mr. THOMPSON, when his name was called, said: The principle reason he voted for this resolution is because Governor Morton, a man in whose sound judgment he had the greatest confidence, recommended this measure in his message as a matter of justice to the people in that portion of the State. Having, under that recommendation, one year ago offered a similar amendment, which was voted down, to a bill then pending, he felt himself at the present time not only ready but bound to vote for this resolution.
Mr. TURNER, when his name was called, was understood to say that the rights of these people had been invaded, and in order that they should have a remedy he would vote for this resolution.
After the roll-call was finished -
Mr. RICE said: Personally he would be glad to support this measure out of kindly feelings to many of its warm friends, but as it has been canvassed in his distrct, he felt that he was instructed against it. Then he thought it wrong in principle, for he had yet to read of a precedent where any government has paid for property destroyed by a foreign foe. If a foreign war should spring up and the property of our citizens be destroyed therein they might as well ask to be reimbursed in such a case as in this one. Another thing: if Congress should not pay these claims, he was satisfied they would linger here for the next thirty years, and thousands and thousands of dollars would be lost in discussing them from session to session. For these reasons he voted "no."
The result was then announced as above.
Pending the above discussion -
On motion by Mr. OYLER it was -
Resolved, That the Secretary of State be authorized to have bound and sent to each member of the Senate and the officers, clerks, and reporters thereof, three copies of the LEGISLATIVE BREVIER REPORTS; also two copies of the Senate, House, Documentary Agricultural and Horticultural Reports, and also two copies of the acts of the present session, all to be bound in full law and the first and last volume of the Adjutant General's Report
The PRESIDENT laid before the Senate the State Librarian's report of the stationery and stamps drawn by each Senator and elective officer, footing up between $3,000 and $4,000.
On motion by Mr. CULLEN, it as laid on the table without reading.
On motion by Mr. CULLENT, the concurrent resolution of the House of Representatives, authorizing the State Printer to print 600 copies of the acts of the present session in the German language was concurred by the Senate.
The PRESIDENT. Is it the pleasure of the Senate to take up the message from the House transmitting a resolution for the ap-upon the Governor, and ascertain whether he has any further communication to make to the General Assembly?
It was so ordered by consent.
The resolution being read -
The House resolution recommending the Governor to appoint, as military claim agents, none but soldiers who have served in tbe war for three years, or who have been wounded or received an honorable discharge, being read -
Mr. BENNETT said: Mr. President - I am well satisfied that my record on behalf of soldiers is sufficiently understood And I am equally well satisfied that this resolution was proposed by the enemies of the Claim Agency bill for the purpose of compelling the friends of thai measure to make a record which they think will be in opposition to the rights of soldiers. Now, sir, I know that no soldier in this State is unwilling to leave these appointments Governor Baker, himself a gallant soldier. The bill establishing these agencies contemplated a benefit to soldiers, in the collection of their claims, and the great question is not so much who shall be the agents, as that they shall be competent men. That question is not so much who shall be the agents, as that they shall be competent men That question I am willing to leave to the Governor, and move that the resolution lie upon the table.
The motion was agreed to.
[Mr. CASON, returned to the Secretary's table sundry papers from the Committee on Education.]
Mr. MILLIGAN, from the special committee thereon, returned the commission from Governor Baker respecting an appropriation for the Lincoln monument at Springfield, with a recommendation that it he on the table.
The report was concurred in.
Mr. MILLIGAN. Mr. President, in making this report I do not wish it to be understood that we do not think it a very meritorious act to erect this monument, There is no one that the people of Indiana would feel more like honoring, for his love of country, patriotism and philanthropy, than Mr. Lincoln; and I hope ere this page: 449[View Page 449] monument is erected that Indiana will yet be ready to assist our sister State of Illinois in the noble and patriotic project of raising a monument to the memory of our lamented President. I am pleased to hear that the other branch of our Legislature has authorized $10,000 to be appropriated as soon as $125,000 is expended on the monument.
Mr. SHERROD offered the following:
1. WHEREAS, At the beginning of the late civil war, it was declared that the "war should nor be prosecuted in a spirit of conquest or subjugation, nor for the purpose of overthrowing or interfering with the rights or institutions of the States, but to maintain the supremacy of the Constitution, and to preserve the Union with all the dignity, equality and rights of the several States unimpaired ; and that as soon as these objects are accomplished, the war ought to close ;" and
2. WHEREAS, To carry into execution this solemn pledge, a bloody war of .four years was waged by the 'patriotic soldiers of the Republic. terminating in the surrender of ail those in arms-against the Government, and in the complete submission of the people of the feoiitnern States to the authority of the Federal Government; and
3. WHEREAS, for nearly two years no organized resistance has been offered in any one of the States lately involved in the rebellion to the authority of the Federal Government, and no impediment exists to prevent the civil authorities of the United States from carrying into complete effect the solemn pledge made by the Government in the name of the people, therefore
4. Resolved (the House of Representatives concuring) that it is the solemn judgment; of the General Assembly of the State of Indiana that the long delay in bringing about complete restoration of political relations between the Federal Government and the States lately involved in the rebellion has been caused not by a desire to "preserve the Union with all the dignity, equality and rights of the several States unimpaired," but to enable a Radical majority in Congress to force upou the people in the Southern States the odious doctrine of "negro equality and negro suffrage"
5. That the measures of the late Congress in extending the right of suffrage to the negroes of the District, of Columbia and in all the Territories of the United States, and in forcing the people of Nebraska and other new States offering themselves for admission into the Union, TO so amend their Constitutions as to strike out all distinction on account of race or color, are but a part of a general plan to establish the right of suffrage in this country upon the basis of negro equality, and meets with our unqualified condemnation.
6. That the late act of Congress known as the military bill passed over the President's veto, establishes a military despotism in ten States of the Union, and leaves to the people thereof no escape from the tyranny thus established over them, except in the formation of new governments on the basis of negro equality, and in all its features is in conflict with the declaration of principles under which the war was conducted and carried through to a success, as well as at war with every principle of a free government
7. That we, the people of Indiana, are opposed to negro suffrage in all its phases: that we do not intend that it shall be adopted in our State, nor do we intend to divide the political power of our State with this African race, and we do not believe it manly or just to force upon an unwiliing people laws and institutions that are distasteful to ourselves, and we therefore instruct our Senators and request our representatives in Congress in all measures deigned to restore political relations with the Southern States to leave the people of those States free to adopt or reject negro suffrage as to them may seem best for their interests and welfare, hoping that the action of the people everywhere shall be such as to leave our government what our fathers made it- "white man's Government."
Mr. TURNER moved the adoption of the resolutions. He had no gas to expend upon them, but he thought there were some of bis friends disposed to. blow off.
Mr. CULLEN moved their reference to the Committee on Federal Relations.
Mr. SHERROD did not expect the majority to vote for these resolutions, bat feeling a deep interest therein, proposed that there should be a record made upon them He did not intend to detain the Senate with an elaborate discussion of the principles involved in these resolutions at this late hour in the session, although he would like to meet gentlemen on the opposite side of the chamber in the discussion, for he looked upon it as involving questions of the greatest magnitude. He spoke in support of his resolutions at considerable length - the five minutes rule being suspended for the purpose.
Mr. BENNETT replied, in opposition.
Mr.TURNER having heard a great deal said upon this floor during the past sixty days upon the subject of loyalty, and believing that that word has never been defined either in the books or by deliberative assemblies, he gave to the Senate his definition of the word loyalty; and then proceeded to argue in favor of a direct vote upon the merits of the pending resolutions. When he had concluded -
Mr. CULLEN demanded the previous question.
The demand was seconded by the Senate, and under its operation -
The motion to refer the resolutions to the Committee on Federal Relations was agreed to by yeas 22, nays 12 - as follows:
YEAS - Messrs. Armstrong, Bellamy, Bennett, Brown, Church, Cravens, Cullen, Hyatt, Lewis, Milligan, Noyes, Oyler, Parrish, Reagan, Reynolds, Robinson, Stein, Terry, Thompson, Ward, Wolcott and Mr. President - 22.
NAYS - Messrs. Bowman, English, Gifford, Hanna, Huey, Huffman, Mason, Newlin, Sherrod, Smith, Taggart and Turner - 12.
Mr. HANNA moved that the Committee on Federal Relations be excused for fifteen minutes with instructions to report back these resolutions at the end of that time.
Mr. OYLER (?) moved to lay this motion on the table.
Mr. BENNETT. I hope that motion will prevail, for it is treating them with contempt, and that is what I mean by my vote.
Mr. TURNER. Are the opposition afraid to-come to a square vote upon this question?
page: 450[View Page 450]The PRESIDENT. Debate is out of order.
The motion was laid on the table by yeas 20, nays 11 - present and not voting 2.
On motion by Mr. CULLEN, it was -
Resolved, That the thanks of the Senate are hereby tendered to the secretaries of the Senate and their assistants, and the Doorkeeper and his employees for the faithful, impartial and courteous manner with which they have discharged the duties of their respective stations.
On motion of Mr. OYLER, it was -
Resolved by the Senate, (the House concurring) That the Judges of the Supreme Court, are hereby authorized to remove the law library from the State House to any building that they may rent for the uses of said court and they shall have exclusive control of said library.
Mr. PARRISH and Mr. NOYES obtained leave to record their votes in the negative upon the passage of the Morgan raid resolution.]
Mr. CULLEN, from the Committee on Printing, returned the bill [H. R. 331] without recommendation.
Mr. OYLER, from the Committee on Organization of Courts, returned sundry bills to the files of the Senate.
Mr. 0., for Mr. HOUGHTON, returned the bill [S. 145] with an adverse report thereon, and it was laid on the table.
Mr. STEIN, from the special committee thereon, returned a resolution authorizing the Secretary of the Senate to perform certain duties after the adjournment in connection with the journal, for which he may be allowed not to exceed $25, recommending its adoption. The report was concurred in.
On motion by Mr. THOMPSON, the House resolution, authorizing the sale of an old pile driver, near Broad Ripple, be longing to the State, was taken up and concurred in.
Mr. STEIN offered the following:
WHEREAS, On the 8th day of January, 1866, His Excellency, Conrad Baker, the acting Governor, now Governor, of the State of Indiana, in view of the expediency of securing a proper representation of the industrial and mechanical interests of the State at the Universal Exposition to be held at Paris during the present year, issued an appointment to John A. Wilstach, of Lafayette, as Commissioner for the encouragement of Emigration, which appoint, merit was made dependent upon future ratification by the General Assembly of the State ;
AND WHEREAS, The said John A. Wilstach since said date has been devoting himself to the duties of said appointment, and is now in Paris engaged in the labors incident thereto, and hence it becomes proper that said appointment should receive the sanction and authority of the Legislature of this State, therefore -
Be it resolved by the Senate, (the House of Representatives concurring therein,) That the appointment issued as aforesaid to the said John A. Wilstach by acting Governor (now Governor) Conrad Baker be and the same is hereby ratified and confirmed.
Mr. HANNA hoped it would not be passed. This irregular kind of legislation is always wrong.
Mr. STEIN replied to objections, and urged the passage of his resolutions. If we follow the suggestion of the Senator we would sit in opprobrious judgment upon this appointment of Governor Baker.
The resolution was adopted.
Mr. CUMBACK (Mr. Ovler in the chair) had just been in conversation with the Governor who would not be able to sign all the bills this forenoon. He therefore moved that the Senate take a recess till 2 1/2 o'clock.
The motion was agreed to.
Mr. CRAVENS returned a couple of petitions remaining in the hands of the Committee on Corporations.
Mr. ENGLISH, from the Committee appointed to wait upon the Governor, reported that having performed that service, the Governor informed them he had no further communication to make to the General Assembly.
On motion of Mr. BENNETT it was -
Resolved, That the House of Representatives be informed that the Senate has completed the business before it, and is now ready to adjourn sine die.
Mr. HANNA (Mr. Richmond in the chair) offered the following:
Resolved, That the most cordial thanks of the Senate are hereby tendered to Hon. Will Cumback for the ability, integrity and impartiality with which he has uniformly discharged his arduous labors as President of this body, that for the urbanity, harmony and prosperity of our deliberations we are greatly indebted to his deep sense of justice and his elevating reverence for principle.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. All in favor of the adoption of this resolution will please rise to their feet. - The resolution is adopted unanimously.
The PRESIDENT, resuming the chair, then spoke as follows:
Senators, Officers and Employees of the Senate:
The experience and observation of our lives have taught us all the sad truth that there can be no ties, however tender, or associations, however pleasant in this world, but that time will dissolve them.
Our time for separation has come, and I but do justice to my own feelings when I say that I will ever revert to this session of the Senate as one of the most delightful periods of my life. I beg to thank you all with an earnest and sincere heart for your cheerful obedience to the rulings of the Chair, and-for the general disposition to make my position, always one of great difficulty in the discharge of its delicate duties, as pleasant and comfortable as possi- page: 451[View Page 451] ble. Your uniform "kindness and courtesy to me, as your presiding officer, has you all such a warm place in my heart that the surging waves of care and toil in after life will never cause me to forget you, and in all your conflicts in life's great struggle, you will have my sympathies and my sincere wishes for your success.
The Senate did a just and honorable act this morning in rendering its unanimous thanks to our highly efficient officers and their employes. I have found them all to be faithful and prompt in the discharge of their duties, and to each of them I beg to add my personal thanks for their kindness to me, and to say to them as they go hence, my regards will follow them for their happiness and success.
I have no time, nor is this the proper occasion, to speak of the acts of this Legislature. It has been emphatically a working body, and since we have been a State there hes never been so much accomplished in any similar body in the same time. I hope what we have done may promote in a high degree the happiness and prosperity of the people, and they will do us the honor to approve our work, and give us a hearty welcome when we return to them.
I congratulate you Senators, that you have, by your uniform courtesy to each other, kept discord and ill feeling out of this chamber; and now that we are about to part, it is a most gratifying reflection that we all go hence friends and not enemies.
To those of you who have a loving wife and affectionate children who have been looking forward to this day with such bright anticipations of happiness in meeting you, I tender my congratulations that you are so near the realization of a happiness than which there is none sweeter on earth.
To those of you who are not thus fortunate, may I in this my parting word recommend that you at once make the needful arrangement for a similar reception when you return home hereafter? [Applause]
I beg to say that the complimentary resolution just adopted unanimously by a rising vote of the Senate, fills my heart with gratitude and pride, and in return for this and the many other acts of kindness I have received from you, my heart thanks you with far more earnestness than my tongue can tell. May Heaven's best gifts be yours in rich abundance, and may you ever receive from your fellow men the same kindness and courtesy that you have so manfully extended to each other and to myself. [Great applause.]
Mr. BENNETT. I move that the Senate adjourn sine die.
Mr. OYLER. I am inclined to think that this is not the usual course. An adjournment now is an adjournment of the General Assembly and not of the Senate alone. We had better wait till respond to our resolution that we are ready to adjourn sine die.
Mr. BENNETT. Our adjournment would not prevent their setting till twelve o'clock if they wanted to.
Mr. OYLER. I am aware of that, but a due regard to courtesy and propiety would admonish us to remain in session till we hear from them. I think it far preferable to have an understanding with them and adjourn simultaneously.
Mr. HANNA. I think the Senator from Johnsn [Mr. Oyler] is right. As a question of usage it is proper to hear a response from the House. I think we ought to wait for a message from the House.
Mr. BENNETT If Senators think there is anything in it I will withdraw the motion.
Mr. HANNA. There is nothing in it except a mere matter of courtesy.
The PRESIDENT. Perhaps it would be as well to send a resolution to the House -
Mr. BENNETT (interposing). That was done. We sent them a resolution that we were ready to adjourn sine die, and all we have got to do is to do that.
After waiting a few minutes -
Mr. HANNA said: Believing that we have remained in session a sufficient length of time since our last message was sent to the House, I now renew the motion of the Senator from Union [Mr. Bennett].
The PRESIDENT. Is there any objection? .......... I now pronounce the Senate of Indiana adjourned sine die.
So - at 3:35 o'clock p. m. - the Senate adjourned sine die.
I move that the Senate

General Comments: Futures closed a little higher as what appeared to be commercial buying surfaced after the market made new lows for the move. Trading was more animated as the government opened again and traders found they could look forward to new harvest and crop data soon. USDA will start announcing news as early as today, but it will take into next week to get things fully functional again. The lack of USDA reports has greatly reduced volume as traders did not know exactly what is going on. Brazil conditions are reported to be very good in Bahia. US crop conditions right now are generally good in Texas. The Delta and Southeast are reporting generally favorable conditions as well. Trends turned down on the charts with the price action this week.
Overnight News: The Delta will be dry and Southeast will see showers today, then mostly dry weather. Temperatures will average near to above normal. Texas will see light showers Friday, otherwise dry weather. Temperatures will average near to below normal. The USDA spot price is 80.01 ct/lb. today. ICE said that certified Cotton stocks are now 0.048 million bales, from 0.38 million yesterday.
Chart Trends: Trends in Cotton are mixed to down with no objectives. Support is at 82.90, 82.50, and 81.70 December, with resistance of 84.20, 85.50, and 85.80 December.
General Comments: Futures closed lower again as the weather stays tranquil in Florida and as demand appears to be poor. There will be less production this year due to greening disease and some unfavorable weather earlier in the year, but has no reason to rally as demand remains mostly on the weak side and there have been no tropical systems to hit the state. Production will be down due to the greening disease and some drought stress early in the year, but these losses are mostly factored into the price. Growing conditions in the state of Florida remain mostly good. Dry weather has returned and conditions are said to be very good in almost the entire state. Temperatures are warm. Brazil is seeing near to above normal temperatures and showers. It should be drier this weekend.
Overnight News: Florida weather forecasts call for mostly dry conditions. Temperatures will average near to above normal.
Chart Trends: Trends in FCOJ are mixed to down with objectives of 116.00 and 107.00 November. Support is at 115.00, 112.00, and 109.00 November, with resistance at 121.00, 122.50, and 125.00 November.
General Comments: Futures were lower in all three markets. Arabica futures moved lower as offers increased from origin. London remained under pressure as the storms have come and gone in Vietnam. Traders there are waiting for Vietnam to harvest and sell, but that is still a few weeks away. The harvest has been delayed due to rains throughout the country over the last couple of weeks. Traders expect more downward pressure on prices once the harvest starts to hit the market. Brazil is thought to have a lot of Coffee to sell yet, but the Real moved higher against the Dollar and offers from that origin were less. Colombia and Peru are actively selling. Producers all over the world are worried about the low prices and are trying to hold back on offers, but differentials and futures prices remain very low. Differentials were weaker yesterday. Brazil markets appear mostly quiet. Coffee is available in Central America, and offers were more animat3ed yesterday.
Overnight News: Certified stocks are unchanged today and are about 2.752 million bags. LIFFE stocks are now 5,615 lots. The ICO composite price is now 108.16 ct/lb. Brazil should get scattered showers. Temperatures will average near to above normal. Colombia should get scattered showers, and Central America and Mexico should be mostly dry or get light showers. Temperatures should average near to above normal.
Chart Trends: Trends in New York are mixed. Support is at 113.00, 111.00, and 108.00 December, and resistance is at 118.00, 119.00, and 121.00 December. Trends in London are mixed. Support is at 1600, 1570, and 1540 November, and resistance is at 1670, 1710, and 1730 November. Trends in Sao Paulo are mixed. Support is at 138.00, 135.00, and 132.00 December, and resistance is at 142.00, 143.00, and 145.00 December.
General Comments: Futures were mixed as the Brazilian real fell against the US Dollar and as traders talked of Brazil harvest delays from recent rains. Scattered showers are now reported in production áreas of Brazil, but dry weather should return this weekend. Heavier rains seen in the last few weeks could have hurt sugar yields, but yields could get a little better now with the return of drier weather. India should still have more than enough production to allow for exports. However, a cyclone is entering the country last weekend and could hurt crops. The Rupee has been working lower. There is talk of strong offers from Thailand, and Thai differentials are stable. Price action suggests that the rally is starting to stall, but nearby New York contracts could approach 1950 and strong resistance just above that level before finding much new selling interest from producers.
Overnight News: Brazil could see dry conditions with variable tempertures this weekend. .
Chart Trends: Trends in New York are mixed to up with objectives of 1940 and 1950 March. Support is at 1860, 1845, and 1835 March, and resistance is at 1915, 1935, and 1950 March. Trends in London are up with objectives of 511.00, 513.00, and 534.00 December. Support is at 499.00, 493.00, and 487.00 December, and resistance is at 510.00, 515.00, and 517.00 December.
General Comments: Futures closed higher on fears of short production and signs of big demand. The US and Asian grind data showed strong demand as did the European data released last week. The strong demand combined with ideas of short production this year was more than enough to keep the rally going yesterday and should be enough to keep prices strong for at least the near term. Production in West Africa suffered this year due to drought in production áreas. Rains are fine now, but are expected to be above average for the last half of the month. More than normal rains could impede harvest progress and hurt bean quality. The quality could be hurt as most farmers do not have good storage facilities. However, a strong rally now might encourage farmers to sell, and that would help with the quality as the beans would move to better facilities enar the ports. Malaysia and Indonesia weather is favorable with scattered showers.
Overnight News: Scattered showers are expected in West Africa. Temperatures will average near normal. Malaysia and Indonesia should see scattered showers, but southern áreas could be dry. Temperatures should average above normal. Brazil will get scattered showers and near normal temperatures. ICE certified stocks are lower today at 3.978 million bags. The North American third quarter Cocoa grind was 131,974 tons, from 121,916 tons last year. LIFFE stocks are 3,926 standard delivery units, 112 large delivery units, and 0 bulk delivery units.
Chart Trends: Trends in New York are up with objectives of 2810 December. Support is at 2730, 2690, and 2655 December, with resistance at 2770, 2800, and 2830 December. Trends in London are mixed to up with objectives of 1840 December. Support is at 1745, 1730, and 1715 December, with resistance at 1810, 1840, and 1870 December.

The parole officer who failed to track down Evan Ebel, the parolee accused of killing corrections chief Tom Clements, is one of eight officers selected for a newly created Department of Corrections Fugitive Apprehension Unit.
Ebel removed his tracking monitor on March 14. Police believe he killed Nate Leon for his pizza-delivery uniform on March 17 and then killed Clements at his home near Colorado Springs two days later. Ebel died in a shootout with Texas law enforcement officers on March 21. A warrant for Ebel's arrest had been issued March 20.
Colorado Division of Parole warden Steve Hager wrote in an e-mail obtained by 7News that the new unit was created with funding approved by the Joint Budget Committee. The unit began work on Thursday.
"The FAU officers will work as a team, statewide, to assist and collaborate with local parole offices and law enforcement agencies in Fugitive Apprehension efforts," Hager wrote. "It is expected that the numbers of fugitive/absconders will be reduced over time, due to increased apprehension efforts, and by sending a clear message to offenders that we will place a priority on apprehending them should they contemplate fleeing from parole supervision."

The day has finally arrived it was a bright sunny day near the shore with that normal sea salt in the air and everyone was excited for their first day of school. No humans to insult you, scare you, mock you, and or hurt you. It was a dream most monsters go for minus some who think otherwise. Regardless on your stance towards them however it is time to go to school. Wake up...
Joshua woke up to shouting and pounding on his door in such a loud way it hurt his ears. He grunted in annoyance and yawned stretching and rubbed his messy blue hair and grumbled as he heard his aunt Rosa calling him from outside his door and she was telling him, or more precisely yelling at him which Joshua disliked, to get ready for his first day at school. Joshua had been staying there up until now due to him not having a place to stay nearby. Rosa had left the pack a long time ago to make her way as a lone wolf and instead had settled down to make a family with another werewolf named Ben. Ben was a rather nice guy but he got angry really easily but the family story would be for another time...
"I'm coming I'm coming my god don't shout so loud! I just overslept is all jeez you're worse than my mom aunty!" Joshua said getting his clothes quickly and while taking off his pajamas. He remembered his mom beating the hell out of him when he use to complain about going to school when he was little. He was a insolent little cub back then...wait back then he still was! Joshua loved his aunty but she was very much not going to let him sleep more than he could. He decided he wouldn't complain as his aunty told him to stop complaining and called him a slow poke. He took a brief shower, while werewolves hate to bathe it would be a bad first impression if he didn't and GODS save him if he did not make a good impression, and then he got dressed in his school uniform muttering in annoyance at wearing a uniform and it was a tacky shade of green as well! He grabbed his suit case and backpack from his room and ran downstairs to see his aunt waiting for him with her typical smile. She was rather cute in her own sort of way, but Joshua for one was not that type of guy.
"Excited for your first day at school Joshy? It's been awhile since you've came to Japan for it. I hope you can get along well with the others. Just show'em who's top werewolf got it? No nephew of my blood is going to get up staged got it? So give it your best ok?" She joked raising her arm and generally looking like Rosie the Riveter from the old war posters back in world war two. She had made him some pork and waffles for breakfast which Joshua was glad for. His aunty always knew what he liked to bad uncle Ben was not here to see him. Ben worked long hours and he started late in the morning when Joshua saw him he was always pooped and exhausted panting like he just fought a ogre. Joshua guessed that may have been true as well because he spent his vacation studying magical items and objects. It was boring but also interesting and it surely would give him something to brag about to any of his new friends. They talked and chatted and enjoyed each other's' company as they always did in the morning joking and screwing around like they were both high school students.
"Thanks Aunty Rosa! Man I'm going to miss your cooking each morning you are really good." Joshua chuckled and smiled showing his fangs which Rosa also replied with a similar laugh. His family was weird like that. Regardless once Joshua finished eating he kissed his aunt on the cheek and walked to the door with her.
"Oh shut it Josh you'll live you scoundrel! Besides I'm not that good of a cook you would eat a pan if I put it in a deep fry oven. Uncle Ben is proud of you and so am I you've grown so much since we last saw you six years ago in grade school. Uncle Ben also said to give'em all you have and take everything you can. It's your day to shine my nephew show'em how it's done!" she said overly exaggerating how it is and being over the top like an anime character.
"Thanks aunty I will I promise you I'll make friends and I'll be the top dog my mom and dad want me to be! I'll call you and write letters cya!" Joshua hugged her quickly then ran out the door as she waved after him. However Joshua tripped and fell on his face when she said bring back home a good girl to which Joshua said screw off he was not going to school to look for a girl! He was going there to show off really...BUT THAT WAS BESIDES THE POINT!!! Joshua got back up and ignored the laughter of his aunt and he ran at a incredible speed like a top track star jogger even in his human form he was more than a match for most people and animals. Wind surpured past his face and he enjoyed how wild it made him feel like he could run forever and ignore any troubles he needed to! It made him feel free and it made him feel awesome however it also made him ignorant of his surroundings...He bumped against one girl on the way there, he did not see her face nor did he bother with her that much because he sure as hell was not going to be late and almost tripped her but he apologized quickly before continuing running.
He finally reached the bus stop panting slightly, he had run about three miles to get there in less than twenty minutes so that was that however he noticed he was the only one there. He went over and sat down on the vacant bench and cracked his neck and fingers than gave a wolfish yawn.
"Well nothing to do but wait for the others I guess I can't be the only guy here to be from this town." Joshua said lazily sitting down on the nearby bench. He hated being the first one to the party so to speak! He looked like a delinquent slouched over and his school blazer quite messy. However he really did not care he had his left leg crossed over his right in a comfortable position not caring what others thought of him. That's just how Joshua was a lazy bastard...however he was an athletic lazy bastard....and he loved every moment of it.

Five tax advantages of life insurance
With another tax season behind us, it's a good time to consider something that can offer a long-term tax benefit to you and your family: life insurance.
If you are fortunate enough to receive some money from a refund this year, rather than buying that big flat screen TV, consider a purchase that can make a real difference over the long-term.
Most people think about life insurance as a way to supplement income or pay for final expenses. However, in addition to death benefit protection, a life insurance policy can offer several tax advantages:
* In most cases, the policy's beneficiaries do not have to pay federal or state income tax on the death benefit. In addition, there are ways to structure ownership of the policy so the death benefit is not subject to estate taxes.
* Loans taken out against an insurance policy's cash value are typically not taxable, as long as the policy doesn't lapse or is surrendered before the death of the insured.
* The policy owner can exchange one life insurance policy for another without incurring any current tax liability. Later, if the owner no longer needs life insurance coverage, he or she can exchange it for an annuity or long-term-care contract and still defer tax on any gain. Remember, unpaid loans and withdrawals cause a reduction in cash values and death benefits, may reduce the duration of the guarantee against lapse, and may have tax consequences.
* Policy values grow tax deferred as long as funds remain in the policy. For policies that permit withdrawals, the withdrawals are generally available - first as non-tax return of investments, then as taxable gain.
* Many life insurance policies provide for an "accelerated death benefit," where payments are made to the owner because the insured is terminally or chronically ill. Such benefits are generally set up so that they are income tax-free.
"While the death benefit protection and tax-planning benefits of a life insurance policy may not have saved you money on your taxes this year, a life insurance policy can offer the potential for significant income and estate tax savings in the future," says Gail VanDalen, chief marketing officer, Prudential Individual Life Insurance.

Tuition and Financing
Financing a graduate education is top-of-mind for most students applying to SOLES. Most of our graduate students are offered financial assistance in the form of need-based grants, student loans or merit scholarships.
Applying for Graduate Financial Aid: A Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)
U.S. citizens and permanent residents applying to SOLES graduate credential and degree programs should complete the FAFSA in order to be considered for need-based financial aid from the University of San Diego's Office of Financial Aid. We recommend that you file your FAFSA prior to receiving an offer of admission.
The priority deadline for the FAFSA is April 1, 2013 for the 2013-2014 academic year.
Important note for students with summer start dates:
If you are planning to start a graduate program in the summer semester you should complete two FAFSAs: one for the current academic year (which includes the summer semester) and one for the next academic year (which begins with the fall semester). You should also submit the Summer Supplemental Financial Aid Application.
The priority deadline to apply for aid for Summer 2013 is March 16, 2013.
Step 2: Apply for Scholarships
Once you have completed the FAFSA, you may also apply for scholarships and financial aid directly through the School of Leadership and Education Sciences. To review the requirements and access scholarship applications, visit our Scholarships page. You may also be interested in on-campus employment.
Step 3: Check your MySanDiego Portal for your Financial Aid Award
The Office of Financial Aid will begin creating your financial aid award as soon as you are offered admission to a graduate credential or degree program at SOLES and your FAFSA has been filed. Your award will appear on your MySanDiego portal within two weeks of your offer of admission if the FAFSA and all necessary paperwork has been filed. Once your award appears you will have three weeks to accept or decline it.
Step 4: Complete Any Additional Required Paperwork
The Office of Financial Aid may require additional paperwork to verify the number of units you intend to take, complete entrance loan counseling, certify income, and more. Outstanding requirements will appear with a red flag on your MySanDiego portal.
Students who receive scholarships will also be required to confirm their acceptance of the scholarship funds.
Scholarship awards, changes in the number of units you intend to take, and other factors may alter your initial financial aid award.
If you are having trouble understanding your financial aid award or the required paperwork, drop in to the One Stop Student Center in the University Center, room 126 to speak to a counselor. You can also reach the One Stop Student Center at (619) 260-7988 or email@example.com.

- I'm a tech guy with alot of product building experience
- I've built and recently launched a SaaS/cloud application for a niche market, targeting small-size companies
- The product provides a number of process automations, making the user's life much easier by reducing the amount of manual activities. free up their valuable time.
- There isn't a product like mine on the market (at least for the niche)
Pricing structure is roughly ($20-$40/month/company)
The product was built on my spare time, have a full-time job (unrelated)
I am trying to figure out the best way to reach my target audience. I launched the site 3 weeks ago, and I'm kind of stuck right now. I have tried SEO and SEM with very little success, since no one is actively looking for this product. I could also try a push email marketing campaign to a targeted audience, but it will probably get ignored mostly as spam.
At this point, I really think the best thing is to find a sales person to help me make cold call to the potential prospects. I know the type of business I am targeting, and can make the list for the sales guy.
I'd like ask the experts here to help me validate my thinking.
Should I try something else before hiring a sales guy? And what's the best way to on-board a sales guy for a part-time startup. thanks!

What is a Hybrid Course at UMUC?
A hybrid course at UMUC blends computer-based, online learning with face-to-face interaction. Each course has been designed to meet at least half of the time at one of our regional locations, thus allowing students to benefit from in-person time with the instructor and other classmates. Throughout the course, students are expected to complete all assignments in accordance with the course syllabus. You may find the course planner helpful to better manage your hybrid courses, as well as online classes. As with all courses at UMUC, it is advisable to log into the online classroom one week prior to the start date to review and print your syllabus.
Getting Ready
Check your MyUMUC registration for start dates and class location. Be sure to check the location before you head to class in case there has been a change. Also, please ensure that you have directions and allow extra time, especially if you are unfamiliar with the location.
If you are unfamiliar with online learning at UMUC, take the WebTycho online orientation.
Hybrid classes start online the first day of the session, not the day of the first on-site class meeting! Be sure to log in to WebTycho one week before the start of a class session. Your instructor may provide important information in the class announcements related to preparing for the course.
If you are not familiar with the location of your on-site classroom, try a dry run to make sure you know how to get there—locate the closest bus stop, where to park, the location of the building and room. See a list of locations and links to directions and maps.
Print, review, and familiarize yourself with the syllabus and class schedule. Note the dates and location of class meetings and use a course planner to help you map out your meeting times and assignments. Visit the Connect@UMUC site to download the latest planner.
Sign up to receive text or e-mail alerts about emergencies, weather alerts and closings for your specific class location.
Tips for Success in Class
Participate fully in both formats—your final course grade will be affected if you only participate in discussions online or if you only show up to class without participating in online activities or discussions.
Speak with your instructor about his or her expectations for participation if you are not clear.
Be sure you understand the course schedule and what is due when and where.
Follow the cues from your instructor about the best ways to communicate with the class or obtain important information. Instructors will post regular updates in the class announcements area of the WebTycho classroom and may expect you to check there first before asking your question. Some instructors may prefer you post to an online questions conference.

Costume and Textiles Girl's Trained Dress and Bust Pads Made in United States, North and Central Americac. 1868-69 Artist/maker unknown, American. Worn by Martha Rebecca Griffith, American, 1867 - 1870. Dress: Printed wool twill, silk velvet ribbon, cotton machine-made Valenciennes lace, velvet-covered buttons with metal band, wool twill tape binding; Pads: glazed cotton plain weave with cotton stuffing * Costume and Textiles Study Gallery, Perelman Building, second floor 2001-29-1a--c Gift of Mr. and Mrs. Richard C. Hughes, Jr., 2001 |
LabelMartha Griffith wore this very unusual dress when she was about two years old. It is a perfect miniature version of a typical adult woman's day dress of the 1860s—not a party dress or costume. It's not known why Martha's parents chose to dress her like a grown-up, complete with a trained skirt and even small pads to fill out the bodice's double darts.* Works in the collection are moved off view for many different reasons. Although gallery locations on the website are updated regularly, there is no guarantee that this object will be on display on the day of your visit. |

Get to know "The Pines". KINK Community member Cynthia Orlando writes The Pines' 4th CD quietly rocks and resonates from off the beaten path.
If you're in the mood for new music, mellower than hard rock but bold and original enough to hold your attention, and especially, something off the beaten path of the mainstream, The Pines' "Dark So Gold" might just be to your liking. This 7-member Indie band from Iowa and Minnesota craft quiet, understated compositions with a folk-rock feel that also contain a strong undertow of the blues.
For those not familiar with them, the core of The Pines are musicians / singer-songwriter's Benson Ramsey and David Huckfelt. With a sound a bit like a blend of JJ Cale and Bob Dylan, both fairly whisper lead vocals on "Cry, Cry, Crow," their mysterious, brooding first track on the new release.
Like most of the selections on "Dark So Gold," the reflective "If By Morning" follows in a similar vein: tasteful, appealing acoustic guitar finger-picking that echo with reverberations. Lyrics are somehow both strong and delicate, conjuring up images of brown rolling hills and barnyards, or the moon rising over farms and fields in a desolate landscape.
KINK listeners will surely appreciate the soft, searching and emotive "All the While"; it's somewhat reminiscent of musician Ray LaMontagne with its rolling momentum and romantic dreamscape theme. Keep this one handy for cuddling up to that someone-special.
Lyrical phrasing on "Rise Up and be Lonely" is stark and Dylan-esque: "Look now the sun hangs like a thief / over branches leaf to leaf / and I'm out walking under corporate criminal skies / Rise up in the morning / Rise up and be lonely." And its powerful but understated lead guitar style calls to mind Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits fame. Discerning ears will also gravitate towards some skillfully played slide guitar touches expertly placed between interwoven acoustic guitars on "Be There in Bells."
A bright and touching instrumental, "Grace Hill," follows. Light and spritely- mostly banjo with windswept touches of keyboards and drums - you can almost hear the sound of crickets in the background. It's great Americana folk with a little magic thrown in.
The momentum and feeling of redemption imparted by "Chimes" (with it's lovely keyboards, it's probably the CD's most uplifting track) is also noteworthy. While we probably won't hear it performed on "American Idol," let's vote it "most-likely-to-be-played" on public radio.
Churning out 4 CD's since 2004, all of The Pines' last 3 albums were released on American independent record label Red House Records. They recently finished touring with American singer-songwriter Mason Jennings, opening for him and collaborating with his band during the second half of his shows as they so capably did at Portland's Wonder Ballroom last year. In January, Jennings endorsed The Pines' newest work, saying simply, "easily my favorite record of the year."
Understandably, while most bands don't usually relish being compared to other artists, musicians who call to mind the likes of Bob Dylan, JJ Cale or Mark Knopfler are bound to be pretty gifted in their own right; it's clear The Pines follow their own instincts in a niche truly all their own.
You can get a thorough introduction to their music online, at: www.thepinesmusic.com/store/index.html.
From "Dark So
Gold," check out "Grace Hill" "All the While," or
"Chimes." Also, make time to give a listen to both "Heart &
Bones" and "Pray Tell" from their last release, "Tremelo."
Some kinds of
music, like many forms of art or a good wine, are best appreciated by savoring
slowly and contemplatively. Such is the case with music by this band. Here's to
hoping they'll make Portland or Eugene a whistle stop on their next tour.
