Washington Letter.
One
The Blory that NauBen whs at the
North pole, the Dkmocbat predicts will
proYd a great canard.
From cur regular Correspondent.
Washington, Feb. 10th, 1896.
of - the best speeches, from a
strictly democratic point of view, made
daring ihe debate on the free coinage
substitute for the House bond bill, which
closed today, was by Representative
Bartlett, of Ga., and it wasn't a long
speech, either. Mr. Bartlett is a silver
man, but he made it distinctly under
stood that he was above all other things
a democrat in his own words, "I want
to say that whetter in the majority or
ininnritv. vhernver the democratic flair
floats, there will be my standard." He
was still more emphatic when Mr. Skin
ner, of N.C., asked him would be sup
port a gold candidate on a gald platform,
if the Chicago convention should put
forth such. "I will," replied Mr. Bart
lett. "vote for any man whom the ma
jority oi the democrats nominate in con'
vention."
Senator Frye was unanimously elected
president pro tern of the senate, and re
publican caucus has nominated the
other officers, but inasmuch as there is
a doubt of their ability to elect them,
they have not decided when they will
make the attempt.
Although the republicans have not
yet secured a majority in the senate,
they have already begun to fill the in
cabator with extravagant schemes, to
be batched out by the aid of future legis
lation . One of these schemes was pro
posed to the republican senatorial
caucus by that eminent grab bag states
man, George Fill-me-up Hoar, of Mass.,
whose cherub-like countenance never
beams quite so dazzlingly aa when be
sees a new opportunity to run his band
into the National Treasury. His new
scheme provides that the U. S. Govern
ment, which already pays senators a
salary of 85,000 a year, mileage to and
from their homes a clean pick up to
those who ride on passes, and most of
them do allows them a liberal amount
for stationary etc., and hires a clerk for
each of them, ehall furnish every senator
with a valet, no, beg pardon, messenger
- ; r. TT : 1 V. Ftn- all
IS wnai fwusiur nine imliu, uui ,
valet is Drobablv what he meant. -'same
proposition more needlessly extravagan
was never proposed to either branch of
Congress, but the republican caucus
to it eerionsly enough to appoint
Sinato.-a Allison, Elkins and Chandler a
ommittee to consider it and report to
the next caucus.
President Cleveland did not make any
recommendation when he 6entthe report
of the Nicaragua Canal Commission to
congress, bat the unfavorable nature o'
that report, concerning the (building of
the canal under existing plans, makes it
wall nigh certain that no bill authoris
ing the guarantee of bonds to be issued
by the present Canal Company can be
come a law.
The anti-prizefighting bill, putting a
heavy penalty upon tbose who engage in
fistic contests for money in any of the
territories or in the District of Columbia,
give the country an excellent idea of how
easilv and how Quickly Congress can act
when so disposed. This bill went
through the house and senate without a
dissenting vote and was promptly signed
by the President all within lorty-eignt
hours. ,
The results of the bidding for those
bonds are in the main satisfactory to the
srlminUtratinn hnt there are eood reas
ons for the belief that President Cieve
land and Secretary Carlisle very reluct
- antly awaided any portion of the bonds
to the Morgan syndicate; but, inasmuch
as the subscriptions in excess of the bid
of that syndicate only took about two
thirds of the 'issue, there was nothing
else that could be fairly done but to
award the others to that syndicate. Al
though more than three fourths of the
bonds have been awarded to Xew i'ork
bidders that does not mean that so large
s percentage of the bond as that will go
there. Bidders from all sections of the
country forwarded their bids through
their financial correspondent in New
York. Wherever they go and whatever
becomes of them it is hoped that these
will be ihe last bonds ever issued by the
U. S. in a time of peace.
President Cleveland spent Satnrday
down the rotomac, snooting ducks, so
another wave of abuse of him may be
expected from the usual sources.
The Russian bear is pouncing down
upon Corea. Will the little Jap dare
tackle the monster.
It has already cost $00,000,000 to at
tempt to suppress the insurrection that
has placed Cuba almost in a con
dition of bankruptcy.
The Fitzsimmons-Maher affair has
proven as great a tisco as that of the
Corbett-Fitzsimmons combination. Ail
Smoke. There will probably be no fight
and should not be any.
Governor Win. P. Lord receives Ml a
month lor inspecting the State peniten
tiary, a sinecure.
A sample of Portland politics is beir g
displayed in the removal of the board ol
fire commissioners.
Secretary Morton is without a single
defender. A man is bard up when some
one will not stand up for him.
With the thermometer at 48 degrees
below zero in some places in the East, ic
Oregon we have been going around in
the sunshine without out overcoats.
When the U. S. gets that 100,0.0,OX)
of gold in the treasury, then the public
will again begin to see a depletion.rc
eulting in a few months in the limit being
reached, and lowered, and another bond
issue discussed, forming a regular circle.
An exchange says that if the North
pole ever is found it will be with Eng
land'a mark already upon it. As the
North pole is directly north of the TJ. S.
it will be in order for this country to
put forward the Monroe doctrine with
persistency.
Anybody can find plenty of reasons
for criticisms the democratic party, but
only occasionally a man who has posed
as a democrat for tbirtv years and
whom that party had repeatedly honor
ed, flops over suddenly and becomes a
republican, as ex-State benator Cogswell
claims to have done. People will think ,
in spite of bis protests, that be will soon
be asking for an office at the hands of the
republicans. Portland Welcome.
The United States does things rapidly
euough w.ien it gets on its muscle. The
anti-prize lighting bilk passed both
houses and was signed by the president
in forty eight hours from its introduction.
Napoleon Davis, who tecently Ktorced
from the East says: About the only ad'
vantage I noticed in the hard times was
in the greatly reduced price of clothing
The people appear to be satisfied with
the so-called Wilson tariff law, eo far as
it relates to ordinary grades of clothing
I heard nothing in favor of tne restora
tion of the duties on clothing, as provid
ed by th McKinley law, except from
a few manufacturers in that line if
trade. This and other indications in me
direction suggested the tnougnt
that the tariff will not attract much at
tention in the next presidential cam
pa;gn, but that the struggle will be
over the financial question.
John P. Harmens, a tramp, 60 years
old, who by his own confession recovered
over $20,000 which was hidden by the
train-robbers a year ago. is locked up in
the iailin Saciamento. For months he
has been living in San Francisco on the
fat of the land from proceeds of the
money stolen trom the Oregon express
by Brady and Browning. The prisoner
has turned over to the police $2000,which
he had in the German Savings bank in
San Francisco. $5900 in securities, a
diamond ring and a diamond collar but
ton. Uarraens found the money under
a clump of Lushes near Sacramento,
where it had been burled by the robbers
It is known that the robbers obtained
over $ 50,000 from Wells-Fargo, but Har-
mens did not find all of the plunder. Be
says he obtained only 20,000, but it is
believed these figures are under rather
than over the exact amount. This con
elusion is based on the fact that when
Brady confessed and took the officers to
the place where the money was buried,
only $0000 was found. Harmens bad
evidently Uken the rest of it before the
officers arrived. Ex.
Gold, Gold, Gold.

An English paper taken by an Albany
man has fhe following idfa of American
justice: From America comes the s'ory
of a ju'.'gf wlio diiichaiged a prisoner af
te tie had Iippu convicted by a jury.
Ihe iL'teiligeut Am rican public have
ccme to the ctn'clusioa that the pricouer
hypnotind tie judye and i!kd bim to
reverse Ui" ii. ci?in o' the jury. As a
maf.tr of (act, it is v-rv easy to hypno
tise an American judiie. The procedure
it as follows: If you have a case pending
you go and ere thrf jud;, or send a trust
ed friend to him After diecueing the
crse as a delicate preliminary, you men'
t'ufl casually tne case in wuicti tou are
interested, and the judge assures you.
with tears io his eyes, that, though the
.American Kale seems to scream, justice
ehall be done. You shake him heartily
by the hand, and in a voice bui-ky with
emotion eay: "See, here, judge, you
mast come across a lot of cases denerving
charity in the course of your duties, and
I should very much like yn to distribute
a thousand dollars for me." "My frier,d'
replies the jadge, "you are right, b'gofch.'
But its a darned funny thing that your
opponent gave me just the amoui.t for
the poor only an hour ago. I think,
though, tbat I could easily find deserving
cases for even another two thousand
dollars '' You get a;i assurance that no
more money will be accepted for distri
bution until your case is concluded, pay
over two thousand dollars, and jas
tice is hypnotised.
Total monthly payroll... $808
The total number of officers is 19, and
the number of boys in the school 122,
making an average of 6 8-19 boys to each
officer.
In tbe insane asylum the list could not
ba obtained; bat thert are about 125,with
a payroll of $5,003.
At tbe dea! mute school there are 13
officers and employes to 62 pupils, mak
ing an average of 4 3-10 pupils to each
officer. The superintendent receives
1100 a month down to S15 for the 'sun
dress. Total salaries, 1525.
The number of officers and employes
at the blind school id 11, aud the num
ber of pupils 2'i, making 2 3-11 pupils tc
each oSBser. Total ealariea, 13.1.
Tbe people foot the bills. When one
considers the number of naid offi :ers to
the persons it s!io3 a j b on the fa;-e of
it and will make the a7erag) person hot
at such management.
there ia no telling how la-ge the amount
would be. as an idea, tbe agent of the
Midland Terminal Railway at Victor
was checked out today (be is going mio
ing and his daily uncollected bills
amounted to over $20,000. This, of
coarse, included ore shipments, etc. I
simply quote these figures so you can
see how much of a hunle t'.U new mm -
itg district has gotten on itself in three
years time.
I am trying to secure a sample of ore
from Mr. Stratum's mine for our St.
Louis office, but the specimen hunter
has apparently exhausted the patience
of the mine owners, to it is really a diffi
cult matter to get any specimens worth
having.

During theytar 1594 the total number
of banks and other financial institutions
fo ced into liquidation ws 98, and the
liabilities were $18,028,&0. This was
tbe year following the crush of 1S93.
Ia I '95, (prosperity rolling towards us
ali the time,) the failures were 140 in
number, and the amount of liabilities
$23,624,018. An increase of about 50 per
cent in number and nearly SO per cent
in the amount involved.
There is prosperity i'h a vngearn.e.
It would seem as if a great trade and
financial journal li'ae Bradaireeta' ought
to understand that Ihe only way to biing
back permanent prosperity is by iiivfng
tbe producer fair prices for what he has
to sell. It :annot be done by compelling
him to part ith his product for less and
less money ali the time. Fair prices csn
nly be insured by a money supply that
keeps pace with the thintcs to be bought
and pold
Of this fundamental truth Bradjtrcete'
seems to have no conception. It appears
to think that prosperity can be created
by the government' borrowing icold and
loading the people down with more and
mote debt in order to keep certain
amount of a certain kind of money locked
up in the treasnrv a process which not
only compels the government to furnish
the very gold which it borrows, but ac
tually obligates it to' pay out more gold
than it takes in . Hitch, howev.-r, is th

Mauy a boy starts
out in life with tbe
firm determination
of conquering tbe
world. He means
to achieve success
and wealth and
fame. His inten
tions are good, and
Ilia wll , atn-M.fr
J If he has tbe bodily
strength to carry
bim through, hii
efforts will be
crowned with
achievement. Bod
ily strength and
health are bisrreat-
est capital. Without
them be can hope
for nothing. How
many young men
and yountr women
are cut off just when
the future seems
brftrhtest and fullest of promise ! They are
taken away by the disease which causes
over one -sixth of all the deaths in the
world the disease which doctors call con
sumption. Consumption baa been consid
ered incurable, and the medical profession
has never made a greater mistake than this.
There is absolutely no reason in the world
why consumption should be fatal why it
should be even serious. It is a disease of
the blood, and can be cured absolutely and
always by purifying and enriching the
blood. The only exception to this is the
case where the disease has been neglected
and improperly treated until it is stronger
than tbe body until the body has become
so weak as to have lost the ability to recu
perate. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery will cure 98 per cent of all cases of
consumption if used according to direc
tions. It also cures all lineerinir couarhs.
bronchial and throat affections. There
is no reason why tbe child of consunip
live parents need ever have consump
tion if its blood and lungs are strength
ened by the proper use of the " Discor.
ery." All who have any reason to fear
consumption, should read the chanters on
that disease in Dr. Pierce's Common Sense
Medical Adviser. This great medical work
of loo9 pages, profusely illustrated, baa
reached a sale of over 680,000 copies. It
will be sent free of charge on receipt of 71
