Washington, tK-t. 13, 1S93.
Had Mr. Cleveland the tact which ex
perience should have given to any man
old enough to have been elected presi
dent of the Ujiited States he might have
at any time during the last three or four
weeks dictated the terms of a compro
mise by which the purchasing clause of
the silver law might have been repealed.
But he kuew more than all his advisers
and insisted that the eenate should
make the ridiculous test of physical en
durance which began on Wednesday
night of this week, the failure of which
was openly predicted before it began by
a majority of the senators who took part
in it. About the only thing so far ac
complished by the continuous session is
the weakening of the president's influ
ence. Unless all; signs fail the com
promise which will result, if there be
any result, will be arranged without
regard to Mr. Cleveland's wishes,
notwithstanding the almost continual
presence of his personal representative,
Secretary Carlisle, at the capitol. By
th way, many consider that Secretary
Carlisle's action in this matter has been
violation of good taste; it looks as
though he was there to prevent the ad
ministration senators going astray. The
senators are very, very tired and the
end of the business is not far off.
It costs a lot of money to keep detect
ives hanging around the homes of pen
aioned veterans in search of some excuse
to deprive the pensioner of all or a por
tion of his allowance. In the regular
pension appropriation bill for the cur
rent fiscal vear there was an item of
$200,000 for the investigation of pension
cases ; that is, to pay expenses incurred
outside of the regular machinery of the
pension bureau. Although only a little
more than one-fourth of the fiscal year
has gone all of that $2lXJ,000 appropria
tion has been expended and Secretary
Hoke Smith has asked congress for an
additional appropriation of $300,0X) to
be used for the same purpose.
f
Although the elections are more than
a year off the Republican congressional
campaign committee has organized for
business and will at once open head
quarters in Washington and begin the
work that is expected to result in giving
the republicans control of the next
house. The following experienced cam
paigners will run the machine : Chair
man, Hon. J. A. Cadwell of Ohio: vice
chairman, Hon. J. W. Babcock of Wis
consin ; secretary, Hon. S. S. Old of
Michigan; assistant secretary, Col. T.
H. McKee of Indiana. An executive
committee composed of the following
senators and representatives, in addi
tion to the chairman and secretary who
are ex-officio members, will be in imme
diate charge: Representatives Draper
of Massachusetts ; Hooper of New York ;
Hitt of Illinois ; Sweet of Idaho, and
Settle of North Carolina, and Senators
Manderson of Nebraska and Perkins of
California.
The alleged investigation of the New
York custom house may turn out to be
a very bad investment for Secietary
Carlisle and the rest of the administra
tion. The so-called commissioners ex
Secretary Fairchild, ex-Congressman
Dnnn of Arkansas and a New York poli
tician are each drawing a salary of 25
a day in addition to a liberal allowance
for expenses, and the whole business is
eating up the "fraud fund" of the treas
ury at the rate of $150 a day and abso
lutely nothing that will ever benefit the
country is being accomplished.
It required a democratic caucus decree
to get the bill for the repeal of all laws
providing for federal supervision
of. elections through the house,
but it is not believed that any
known power could get the bill through
the senate in itd present condition.
Democratic senators are reported to have
declared the bill to beentirely too sweep
ing and to have intimated their willing
ness to see the hill modified before it
passes the senate. There is a rumor,
too, that Mr. Cleveland would veto the
bill if it were sent to him in its present
condition, but its authenticity is doubt
ful. Owing to a hitch in the confirmation
of the nomination of Mr. Hornblower to
succeed the late Justice Blatchford of
the U. S. Supreme court, that court is
holding Its present term with one vacant
eat. It is not thought that the hitch
will result in defeating Mr. Hornblower's
confirmation, although a number of
protests against it, on account of
his age and lack ol legal experience,
have been received by members of the
senate judiciary committee. It seems to
be settled that Van Allen's nomination
to be ambassador to Italy is to be con
firmed by a party vote, but for some
reason it was not done this week.
The House baa taken op the bill pro
viding a substitute for the Geary Chinese
law which ia the result of the ne
gotiations of the new Chinese
minister with Secretary Gresham. Al
though opposed by Representative Geary
and some of the other Pacific coast
members it will pass. Gas.

ARRESTED FOR WHISTLING.

Americans huve little conception of
what may constitute u trouMinahlo of
foiiM in some of the countries of the
old world which are still despotic and
extremely military. There recently
occurred nt liurr. in AUaee, trial
which must have been very amusing
to un American who uiiirht have wit
nessed it, if u man's liberty had not
been in jeopardy.
me day not lone; ao. says the Chi
cago Inter Ocean, in the streets of
llarr, a laborer, who wi., enframed iu
loading a wagon, whistled cheerfully
at his work. As he was thus enquired
a jrendamu', or military policeman,
came within hearing. The workman,
apparently preoccupied, kept on with
his whistling'.
"I arrest you," said the pendarme,
coming up and putting his hand on the
workinpman's shoulder.
"What for?" asked the man, aston
ished. "For seditious whistling. You have
been whistling the 'Marseillaise.' "
The "Marseillaise" being' the French
national air, and a revolutionary air
besides, is forbidden in German Al
sace. But the workman exclaimed: "Oh,
no, you are mistaken! It isn't the
'Marseillaise' at all that 1 am whist
linp, but the 'March of the Brunswick
Hussars.' I used to belong to the
Brunswick Hussars, and that was our
regimental tune."
The pendarme, who was a German,
and thoupht he knew one tune from
another, took the workman under ar
rest, and in due time he was broupht
into court charped with disloyalty in
whistlinp a seditious air in a public
place.
Both the pendarme and the accused
told their stories very confidently, and,
as the workman was reputed an honest
and loyal man. the court was very
much perplexed letween the two men
and the two tunes.
In this predicament the court ad
journed to the council-room adjoininp.
and, callinp in the accused and the ac
cuser in turn, made the workman
whistle the "March of the Brunswick
Ilussurs," and the gendarme the "Mar
seillaise." Each did his best; but the tunes
proved in the ear of the court to be so
much nnlike that it was reparded as
improbable that the gendarme could
have been mistaken.
The accused was therefore sent to
prison: but his peneral bearinp, and.
above all. his excellent whistlinp, had
Effected the court so favorably that he
was sentenced to only three days' im
prisonment. DEAR FOOD NOT THE BEST.
HlBh-Prlrvd Market l'rodorta Are Isuully
Not the Moat Nutrition.
Prof. W. O. Atwater. writ inp in the
September Forum, claims that the
niaxira "the best is the cheupest" does
not apply to food. The best fxi ia
the sense of that which is sold nt the
hiphest price is rarely the most ec-
nomical for people of health. The
food that is best fitted to the rc:;l wants
of the user may be the very kind which
supplies the most nutriment at the
lowest cost. Bound steak at 15 cents
a pound contains as much protein and
energy, is just as digestible and is
fully as nutritive, us tenderloin at 50.
Mackerel has as high nutritive value
as salmon and costs from an eighth to
half as much. Oysters are a delicacy.
If one can afford them there is no rea
son for not having them, but '25 cents
invested in a pint would bring only
twenty-nine prams, almut an ounce. cf
protein and iiiio calories of energy. The
same 25 cents spent for Hour at $ a
barrel, or 3 cents a pound, would pay
for 4'JO prams of protein and l:S.70O cal
ories of energy. When a day lalrer
buys bread at cents a pound, the
actually nutritive material costs him
three times as much as it does' his em
plover who buvs it in Hour at 8 a bar

ELECTIONS IN FRANCE.
Manhood Multrase la l'ulTerailrriu
tlona Airuliiat Fraud.
In France all men when they have
attained their majority are registered
voters. Everyone (pialilied in inscribed
on a poll list uud is urmcd with an
electoral canl pivinp his name, pro
fession and residence which is issued
bv the mayor of his commune. Tliii.
card is his passport of citizenship add
also serves for purposes of identity.
Each card is numbered and corresponds
with the number on the repister. The
pollinp takes place iu a townliall,
si'hiMdroom or other public buildinp.
No candidate is elected at the first bal
lot who does not receive at least a
quarter of the votes on the repister of
voters, or one-half of the ballots actu
ally cast. Failinp either of these re
sults a second bullot takes place a fort
nipht later, when a simple majority of
votes is sutlicieut for election.
There is not the same strict control
over expenditure on elections in France
ns in Eupland. The cost of an election
varies considerably. There is a preat
deal spent in holdinp public meetiups.
but a spirited rivalry arises sometimes
over plaeurdinp. The candidates are
not saddled with oflicial expeuses. I lie
amount sin-nt depends entirely tin the
strenpth of the opposition. I'sually,
when the tipht is keen, the expenses
of each candidate will run between ten
thousand and thirty thousand francs.
At the famous contest between Jtou
lnnper and Jacques in 18M over a mil
lion francs were spent.
The French system of pollinp tends
to insure purity of votinp. When a
voter enters the pollinp station he
pives up his electoral canl. The num
ber on it. is compared with the num
ber in the repister. When the identity
of the voter is established his card is ac
cepted and he isallowed to vote, llefore
the card is returned to him an oflicial
tears on a corner of it, which renders
it useless. Other precautions are taken
which render fraudulent votinp ex-
tremely difficult. Election offenses,
which ore severely puuished, are hard
ly possible except throuph collus'on
with the presidinp otlicers.
