Washington Letter.
From our rcguUr Correspondent,
Washington, Nov. 25th,1895.
With few exceptions democrats are
agreed that it is the duty of the demo
cratic senators to retain the control of
the Senate until they are forced to give it
up. There will be no occasion to'fill the
vacancy in the office of President Fro
Tern of the Senate bo long as Vice-President
Stevenson is on band every day to
preside over the Senate, and he can be
counted upon to be on hand unless pre
vented by serious illness. It is under
stood that the democratic steering com
mittee of the Senate will recommend
following this line of policy; also, that
every measure which comes before the
Senate shall be fully debated by the
democrats, in order that the position of
the party may be thoroughly understood
by the country. The republican sena
tors can.fof course, obtain control of the
Senate at once with the assistance of the
populists and without their aid if Du
pont is seated from Delaware when the
Utah. senators take their Beats, which
will probably be early in the coming
year, if tney ran agree among them
selves, but np to this time they are a
long ways from agreeing, and by har
monious and skillful tactics the demo
crats may remain in cortrol during the
entire session.
As the annual reports of the beads of
the various branches of the government
service are made it is easy to see that
democratic ideas of economy in public
expenditures have been put into effect
wherever possible. The grand aggregate
of all the saving affected may be found in
the footings of the ordinary expenditure
column of the TJ. S. Treasurer's annual
report, fhose footings show that for
the fiscal year ending June 30, last, the
government spent for ordinary purposes
$11,329,931 less than was spent during
the previous year.
Few people in Washington take any
stock in tbe story that comes from New
York to tbe effect that Mr- Harrison has
made a combination which is to place
Ex-Senator Warner Miller on the tail of
the Harrison ticket. Washington peo
ple know Mr. Harrison far one of the
shrewdest politicians the country has
ever had, notwithstanding the impres
sion of some people that he is too digni
fied to get down to the level from which
political wires have to be polled, and
knowing that they cannot believe that
he has made any deal with such a has
been aa Miller. If he could get Gov.
Morton to enter a combination of the old
S8 ticket he'd jump at it, but Morton
has not love enough for Mr. Harrison to
do so, even if he desired to again become
a candidate for Vice President, he re-membe.-a
'92. Failing to make a deal
with Mr Morton, Mr Harrison has made
obo with Senator Allison, it is said, for
tbe express purpose of opposing both
Reed and McKinley. Incidentally they
have agreed that if at any time during
the convention their combined strength
will nominate either, it shall be given to
the one controlling the largest number of
votes. Herri eon next to getting tbe
nomination for himself wants to keep
both Reed and McKinley out of it.
Some people havn queer ideas of what
is good taste. .For instance, Hon John
M Thurston, of Nebraska, who waa for
years in the employ of one of tbe Pacific
Railroads only resigned within the last
ten days, although his salary as senator
began March 4, last and who is said to
owe his election to the IT S Senate to tbe
influence of that corporation, proposes to
inaugurate his senatorial career by in
troducing a bill providing for a settle
ment of the debts due the government
from the Central and Union Pacific Rail
roads. He eays that while his bill differs
in details from the settlement recom
mended by the government directors of
thoe roads its result will be tbe same.
- -This may be true, but when his past re
lations with these corporations are re
membered suspicion will naturally arise
that he is msrely continuing to do their
bidding by introducing this bill.
Senator Hill has started much gossip
by renting a large house in Washington
a od re ports as to his intentions cover
everr " imaginable tbing from getting
married to opening a political club house
for the etaiting of a new boom for the
presidential nomination. It is probable
that his personal convenience w his
only reason for setting np housekeeping.
Another industry has sprang u? in
Nebraska, to overcome the cyclones. A
dispatch says that tbe vast yield of su
gar beets in Nebraska and tbe inability
of farmers to dispose of the enormous
quantity aa rapidly as convenient has
provoked some peculiar violations of the
revenue laws. A still has been captured
l n Sherman county, from which whisky
waa being manufactured from beets. It
was owned by Charles Reidel, a farmer.
The quality was good, and fears are en
tertained by revenue officers that others
will engage in the business.
Fights between sharks end porpoises
are said to bs common in the waters
around the Florida keys, and the fisher
men thereabout declare that tbe por
poise always wins and sends the shark,
which usually begins the fight, scurry
ing sway. The shark has to turn on its
'ile to bife, and the nimble porpoise
easily keeps oat of reach of its snapping
jawp, and then jumps in and deals the
shark tremendous slaps with its tail.
The editor of a Missouri exchange says
that the world is to corns to an end in
Dece .Tiber and exhorts merchants to

wii! be to the advantage of subscribers to
pay up and clear their consciences.

Young Congressmen.
The new "baby" member, the young
est and tenderest of all the young ones is
George N. Southwick, of Albany New
York, the republican successor of Gener
al Tracer. He ia aged 23, but looks to be
about 17 or 18. and will, at first, be
mistaken probably, tor a paro boy.
Next to bim is Norman A Mozely, who
defeated Arnold in the Fourteenth Mis
souri. He ia 29. and worked on hia
ather's farm until he became of age
then taught school aad began to prac
tice law. After bim comes Charley Towne
from tbe Dulutn District, Minnesota, 29
years old, successful both in business
and politics. Twelva years ago be was
a page in tbe Michigan Legislature.
Next is James . Watson of Bosbville
Ind., Judge Holman's successor, 30 years
old, an energetic young lawyer, an Ep
worth Leaguer and a prominent Knight
of Pythias. Three other very promising
new and young members all democrats,
for a change, and 30 years old, are
GeoreeB. McClellaa and William Sul-
rer of New York, and John F. Fitzgerald
of Boston. All three succeed democrats
of maturer age. McClellan ia a eon of
General McClellan, "Little Mac," tbe
commander of the Union army in tbe
early part of the war and democratic
candidate for presidency in 1864. He is
bright and handsome, though boyish-
looking, and is a good speaker and steady
worker. He has the unique position of
being the only democratic congressman
from all New England.
Chester I. Long of Medicine Lodge,
Kansas, is snccessor of Jere Simpson,
the "Sockless." Altogether unlike
Simpson, Long is much more dressy
handsome, tall and dark. He was for
merly a teacher and ia now a lawyer
He has served in the Kansas senate.
Joel D. Hubbard, Bland's successor
from tbe Eighth Missouri district, is 35
practices medicine at Versailles, Mo.
Miles Crowley, democratic, who suc
ceeds Greeham, of Galveston. Texas, is
36, and used to sell newspapers on the
streets of Boston.
llston G. Dayton, Postmaster Geneial
Wilson's successor, is 38, and be ptacti-
cea law at Phiilipi. W. Va.
Among tbe new men of. mature years
who will cut a prominent figure in tbe
house from the start ia General James
A. Walker, the only republican from
Virginia. He commanded Stonewall
Jackson's brigade in the Confederate
army after Jackson's death, and partic
ipated io some of th hardest .fighting
from 1861 to 1805. After the war he be
came a republican.
Another prominent republican lawyer
is James A. Connoly, of Springfield, 111.,
and still another is George H. Noonan,
the only republican with a certificate
from Texas. Ha attended school with
President Cleveland .
WilliamS. Owens of Georicctown, Ky,
a lawyer and a democrat, comes as the
heralded - successor of Co' . Wm. C. P.
Breckenbridge from the famous Blr.e
Grass district.
' Frederick ltalternian, republican, of
Philadelphia, representing the third
Pennsylvania District, rendered famous
from the long and honored Incumbency
of the 1st- nn-l f p.-tdill. ia a middle-
asd uiervuaui, of benignant aspect
and disposition, prosperous and conser
vative,, and wilt bave the proud distinc
tion of filling a seat that has not been
filled by any other than a democrat
heretofore in the last eighty years. W.
A. Chalderhead, from tha Fifth Ksnsss
District, Is noteworthy from the fact that
in the very birthblace and hotbed of
ropuusm ana general demagogy; he won
success after-defiantly announcing from I
the stump his opposition o free coinage ole agent for Linn, Lane, Benton, Ma

The picture of the undershirt that

when he visits England.
The Oregonian is very much afraid
Grosvenor, of Ohio, will beat Hermann
for the championship of the river and
harbor bill. The thought is probably
father to the wish. Mr. Hermann's po
sition on the silver question hardly suits
the Oregonian.
Martin Van Buren Stevens, a lively
old man of seventy years, is a student at
the University of Kansas. He is in the
law department, and expects to gradu
ate next spring. Stevens has been a
soldier in the Civil war, a minister of the
gospel and a "professor" of phrenology.
An Albany man says that whenever
Rockefeller gives a big sum to some
church or college he immediately raises
the price of oil and the dear people foot
the bill. That is the sise of his benev
olence. The people need to get ready
for another raise to pay for his chateau.
Thousand dollar salaries are a little
thins to some people, tot it eiiould be
remembered that five hundred dollars
goes as far now aa a thousand did ten
years ago, and the number who are mak
ing five hundred dollars a year these
days is very smal' Salem Journal.
When a msn works for the people,
though, he seems to think it is bis bus

debts.
A man named Davis wrecked a train
at Lincoln Nebraska, causing tbe death
of eleveu persons. He was tried for
murder. Now, of course, if be was guil
ty be ought to have been hanged. ell,
be waa convicted, but the jury eoftened
and found bitn guilty of murder in tbe
second degree. Ridiculous, ami yet it
is tbe way things are done all over the
United States. The protection of socie
ty demands that tbe murderer ahonU
hang.
Tbe Greencastle Ular frees, of Indiana
aava: Democracy is not dead; it baa
been very sick, but tbe crisis was
reached at tbe late election, and its con
valescence will be speedy and permanent.
It has cast off its woo Id be boees and
has become the party "of and for the peo
ple," as its name indicates, and its past
record proves. Democracy is not dead,
neither will it die: it has a mission so
long as popular government lasts, and it
is destined to last for all time.
Oregoniana don't know much about
golf, and erbaps don't care to. Never
theless tbey will be interested ia the
following that actually appeared in tbe
report of an eastern game; A drive
that went like a rocket high in the air
and far, a brassey approach and two easy
puts gave McDonald the bole in four.
He tapped his ball in the drive for the
second bole, but it luckily bounded over
the bunker. Hia brassey shot lacked
good direction, but an ideal iron ap
proach shot landed the ball dead on tbe
graen, and be holed out in four. Sands
also tapped his drive, but be had tbe
poor lock to go straight into the bunker.
He waa out in two, the first attempt
being a failure. An approach shot that
brought him over and into the white
followed, and it took eight to make the
hoie.
Tbe President's Message.
The President's message deals princi
pally with two subjects, foreign relations
and finance :
The close of tbe Chioese war has de
veloped a domestic condition in tbe Chi
neae empire wbie.h baa called for prompt
attention. Owiog to the manifestation
of the aversion of the Chinese to foreign
ways and undertakings, mob attacks on
foreign missions causing much loss of
life and property have been the result.
Although but one American suffered, it
ia plainly tbe part of this goveromett to
take prompt action and a special Amer
ican commission has gone overland frou
Tien Tsin to demonstrate tbe readiness
of onr government to check similar out
breaks.
The present summary of tbe trade
conditions with Germany shows that the
exports affected are largely American
cattle and food products, but insurance
companies are also suffering. The pres
ident suggests retaliatoiy measures,
should an examination warrant them.
An appropriation for the survey of the
Alaskan boundary is recommended, as is
also the sum of $425,000 in full settle
ment of British sealing claims.
In reference to Venezuela, the presi
dent maintains the Monroe doctrine in
opposiog forcible increase by any Euro
pean power of its territorial power on
this continent and suggests that Great
Britiao submit claims to arbitration.
The president touches briefly on tbe
Hawaiian question, ending by saying
that Mr. Thurston, the Hawaiian min
ister, furnished abundant reasons for
asking that he be recalled.
The president asks legislation to break
the treaty or agreement by which this
country is jointly bound with England
and Germany, to assume the manage
ment of Samoa.
Attention ft called to the situation in
Cuba and strict neutrality of this gov
ernment isadvised.
The occurrences in Turkey, while ex
citing concern, information is hard to
obtain but ourcoosulary are instructed
to investigate. It is not the inlentioa of
this government to become entangled in
tbe eastern question, but simply to care
for those entitled to its protection.
A customs and revenue system, de
signed for the protection and benefit of
favored classes at the expense of the
great mass of our countrymen and which
while inefficient for the purpose of reve
nues, curtailed our trade relations and
impeded our entrance to the markets of
the worid, has been suspended by a tar
iff policy, which in principle, is based
upon a denial of that right.
The president promulgates his well
koown views on tbe silver question -
The president suggests as a relief to
circulation that banks be allowed to is
sue notes to the full amount of bonds de
posited and tbe tax on their circula'ion
be reduced to one fourth of one per cent.
As a fur.ber relief it is suggested that
revenue collections be made payable in
gold. I

WasiiisGros, Dec. 1 . Tje find week
of the 54th congress, which convtnes at
noon tomorrow, promises nothing at either
end of tbe capital in tbe way of actual ler
islation. The time before the Christmas
holidays is usually devoted to preliminary
matters, and the work of the session does
not bein until after tbe recess. Tbe new
congress will probably not be an exception
to this rule. Tbe senate proceedings amy
be enlivened by an attempt at reorganiza

until the committee are appointed.

takidg a new start. Their strength rap
idly nturned. They were no more
troubled with Steeples nights, and their
days were no longer made wretched by
neuralgia and rheumatism.
Constipation, that stores up in (he

useless to the body and a menace to thi
health, is looked after. Any one troubl
ed with tins ohsunate hindrance to

core in Paioe's celery compound.
It takes rery short time to settle any
doubts the matter by giving Paine's cel
ery compound a trial.
Mr. John Holland, whoae portrait is
given above, is a parlor car conductor,
white home is in Jersey city. He writes:
"I wish to give my testimony of tLe
great benefit Paine's celcrv compound
has done me. a year ago f had typhoid
lever, and later 1 had to have an opera
tion in my side for an abaes over the
liver. This left me venr weak. I grew
very nervous and could not sleep. I
was tired even more after I got up tban
I was when I went to bed. I have taken
four bottles of Paine's celery compound
and am pertectiv well: 1 have sent six
I ot'Jes io some friends in Virginia, One
although he has taken ontv a bottle of
it, feels much better and Biceps welt."
Paine's celerv compound nuts the svs-
tem on a herlthy, strong basis, safe from
disease. Try it if you are ailing, and a
trial wih speedily convince you.
