negotiations which bave been going on
between the Pacific Eastern Railway
Company and the Chicago. Milwaukee

no definite statement has been given

that the Pacific Eastern will be ex

WASHINGTON". April II. President
Wilson iid his Cabinet took their first
lesson In statecraft from the. Gridiron
Club tonlsrht at its annual Spring din
ner. In the presence of members of
the diplomatic corps, members of Con
sjrers and many distinguished figures
In public life ther took a good-natured
KTillinfr. which was a hearty welcome
after all.
A scene from the melodrama. "The
Democratic Lighthouse." conveyed
warnings to the tariff makers of the
dangers that lie In their pathway. In
the lighthouse on the rock was fought
the battle between the principles of
pur Democracy and enemies in and ou
of the party.
-TIs a bitter night." declared Hoke
Smith, a fisherman, amid a shower of
stage snow. "For II years Democratic
light has been dark, but now old Bill

Champ Clark, another fisherman,
learned that without enthusiasm; and
declared he nerer liked that fellow.
ald he: I tried to ride a trick male
In Baltimore and was just about to win
the prize when old Bill Bryan slipped
a burr under the saddle." There had
been wrecks off the black coast while
the light was out. said Champ: "the
O. O. P. Liner Taft Is but a hulk on
Protection Hock. The mizzentop of the
brig Progressive scarce shows above
Bull Moose Shoal, and tho swift clip
per Uncle Joe lies whitening on the
strand, all lost for lack of light, no.
cash. Now. however, the wreckers
have been driven off by the coast
ruard. headed by Oscar Underwood and
McAdoo. though the formers protec
tion Is merely Incidental."
Here It was announced that the brig
T. Jefferson Platform was due at Fort
Revenue that night.
UcAdoo remarked of the Platform:
"Every four years she departs on
new cruise. loaded to the guards, but
she never brings all her cargo to port.
Bryan: "Aye. there's always a story
of storms at sea. ami they throw the
cargo overboard to save the crew. Once
she was taken from men, who had
commanded her three times, by an Oys
ter Bay pirate. He filled her with
false hopes, put Bill Taft In command
and then scuttled her.
During the temporary absence of the
other men. the vlllian entered In the
person of Penrose Smoot, who sought
to elope with Miss Tariff, but was
slugged and driven oft by Coastguard
Oscar I'nderwood. He returned, how
ever, to put out the light and wreck
the Incoming ship, overcame Keeper
Bryan In a terrific struggle, but was
slain In duel by Underwood.
Ship Safcl Cargo Gov.
The sate arrival of the Platform was
announced, but it had on board no
Democratic cargo: not "tariff revision."
nor "currency reform. nor "tho seven
Fisters, nor Philippine independence.
nor "revised Sherman law," nor "free
canal tolls." nor "civil service reform,
but only 15,000 office-seekers.
Keeper Bryan: "Mr. President, what
shall wc dor'
President Kauffman (after whisper
Ing with President Wilson). "President
Wilson says take the ship to sea again
and scuttle her.
Bryan "God pity the poor office
seekers on a night like this."
Scarcely had the guests settled back
to dinner before disorder arose through
tho Imperative and noisy demands for
admission Into the hall and Into mem
bership into the Gridiron Club of two
reporters Robert H. Patchin, of the
New York Herald, and Thomas F. Lo
gan, of the Philadelphia Inquirer. In
accordance with custom, they were
initiated In the presence of the com
pany, the ceremony taking the form of
a practical examination of the candi
dates In reportorial work.
Parties aieatloard la Serlptare.
Testing his general information, one
was asked where the Democratic party
is mentioned in Scripture, to which he
replied. "In the Book of Psalms, 'The
wild asses did stand in high places,
they sniffed up the wind like dragons:
their eyes did fail, because there was
no grass.'
"Are the Progressives mentioned
anywhere?''
"Yes. in the Book of Hnsea. they are
all hot as an oven, and have devoured
their Judges, they hare sown the wind,
and they shall reap the whirlwind."
"As to the Republican party?"
In the revised version, prepared by
Dr. Roosevelt, the Psalmist says: "The
wrath of the people rame upon them.
hil slew the fsttest of them."
The musical feature was a parody on
the "Chimes of Normandy" in this in
stance replaced by the "Liberty Bell."
Like the original chimes this bell was
supposed to ring out only on the return
to his castle tin this case to the White
House) of the rightful heir. Mr. Jet
fersonian Democracy.
In musical rhyme It was told how the
Liberty pell had become silent and vlg-llam-e
l-pt while men chased the dol
lars, and around gathered the grim
spevtres who would not depart until
t':ey heard the bill. These spoke for
themselves, too. as follows:
First ghost:
The ghost of high protection.
Once he ran the shop.
Since the last election
He has no place to stop.
Second ghost (dollar diplomacy):
On.'e I was respected
for my bonds and rents.
Now I am disconnected.
And feel like thirty cents, .
Thtrd ghost (monopoly): i
Though they have consigned me
Often to the pound.
Somewhere they wl:l find. me.
Always hanging "round.
Fourth ghost (imperialism):
Om- a specter hearty.
Now I'm on the shelf.
Bryan told his party
He'd boss tHe Job himself.
The bell pealed, and the ghosts
shrunk away and the chorus sang:
