Fitzsiuarnons' dream rame true.
The mother of Minnie Williams, one ol
the victims of Theodore Durrant is a
mental wreck, the result ot herdanghters
murder.
in onedar MrPingree issued two proc
lamations, one as governor of Michigan
and one as Mayor of Detroit. He holds
both offices. There are no potato bags
on Mr Piogree.
From the Galveston News :
Artificial remedies will never cure the
evils which afflict America today. A
reduction of the number of offices, with
a radical reduction of the ratio ot the
sum of public expenditures to the sum
of public resources, will eventually be
found to be one of the absolute essentials
of prosperity. There must be less gov
ernment and better government, or the
burden of taxation will mash the plain
citiien into the earth . The true patriot
and the genuine statesman will find
herein a great field tor usefulness.
The following from Vice President
Hobart sounds well ; but it remains to
be seen whether it will amount to any
thing if Mr Hanna takes a different view
atany time in the interest ot his schemes :
It will be my constant effort to aid yon,
so far as I may, in all reasonable espedl
tion of the business of the senate, and I
may be permitted to express the belief
that such expedition is the hope of the
country. All the interests of good gov
ernment and the advancement toward a
higher and be'.ter condition of things
call for prompter, positive lezislatton at
your bands. To obstruct the regular
course of wise and prudent legislative
action, after the fullest anit freest dis
3Us;on, is neither conr'irui with true
senatorial courtesy, conducive to the
welfare of the people, nor in compliance
with their just expectations.
Bob Ingersoll says:
"We are tired of the bible of barba
rism. Truth is the intellectual, wealth
of the woi Id. Truth is the mother of
iov. Truth is the dome of civilisation
Truth ennobles and refines. Truth is
the sword and the shield Truth is the
sacred light of the human soul."
This is a sample ot Bob Ingersoll. He
wants to tear down a colossal institu
tion and offers nothing in its place. He
simply plays on words for 9500 to 91000
a night, that is what he is after. He
zivea nothing for bis money's worth but
flowery language and smooth sounds
He makes statements pnncturable
at
every point. The Dkmocsat man has
heard him four times aod knows of hi,
powers as an orator ; but as a reatone
he simply throws short sentences and
pretty words together, and has never yet
offered a suggestion that weald benefi
mankind.
From the Washington Post :
Hon Jerry Simpson, of Medicine Lodge,
Kan-, has arrived, and last night bs was
warmly welcomed by numbers of bi
former friends at the ' National. M
Simpson is looking well. He is glad to
come back to the National Capital, and
frankly admits tt. He eojayt4 the life of
a Congressman, and mans to extract
still larger amount of p'enare from bis
future service in the Bouse.
"I am proud,' said he, "to be called
populist. The party is growing all the
time, and a President whs believes in
the principles will be elee-e-J in 1900. For
the present we've got t-J let the republi
cans ran the affairs of this nation, and
I'm for giving them all the rope they

of tariff act tber choose it isn't wis
nor right to obstruct them in the li
in their effjrts to redeem the lavish
promises of coming prosperity made in
the last campaign. The prosperity i
still coming; but hasn't yet arrived .
The following from the Washington
Poet is almost humorous in parts: ''Ex
United States Senator H. W Corbett,
and wife, of Portland, Org., are at the
Arlington. The former comes to Wash
ington bearing his credentials aa Senator
for the second time by appointment of
the Governor of his state. The story of
the long and fruitless struggle of the
Oregon Legislature to elect Sir. Mitch
ell's successor has already been told in
the public press ; of how the Senate was
divided and how the house spli into two
bodies, resulting in weary weeks of in
effectual balloting, until at least, weary
and disgusted, both branches adjourned,
ir rather dispersed, without the passage
of a single bill, or ia fact the aceomplis
ment of a single valid legislative act.
Senator Corbett, who is -a native of
Massachusetts, it seventy years of age,
bat evidently time has not dimmed bis
mental faculties in tbi least. He is one
of the wealthy men of Oregon, and is
noted for his philanthropic deeds. Last
year be made an aggresive tight for
sound money, and was one ot tne main
factors In carrying the state for McKin.
ley.
"There are plenty of precedents," said
he. ''which will sustain my claim to a
seat ia the senate. There has never been
any session of the Oregon Legislature I
mean any rightfully constituted body,
and the Governor has simply exercised
bis constitutional right to fill a vacancy
during a recess of the legislature. The
members ol the legislature came together
but there wa at no time anv legitimate
organization of the lower branch . It is
sa though there bad been no meeting of
fhe house, for nothing done by it was
valid."
Mr. Wallace McCamant accompanies
Senator Corbett to the capital as bis legal
representative, tie is a ready talker,
and Is armed with a vast amount of doc
umentary proof to back up the tatter's
claim to a senatorial seat. Mr. McCs ro
an t says that the appointment is regarded
by the republicans of Oregon and many
of opposite politics at in the highest de
gree satisfactory, and that the wish is
almosfvjniversal that Senator Corbett
will not be turned down.

Freak Bills.
From the New York Herald :
Among the fifty purely crank meas
res already killed In committee in To-
Delta were bills forbidding the wearing
of corsets .and bloomers by women ; a
theatre bill, which, if passed, would
subject any baldheaded man wearing a
aknll cap in the front row to a heavy
ne, and a bill to tax solvent bants in
order to recoup the depositors of broken
banks.
Missouri has mads a good record for
crank legislation. Statesman Hood, of
that commonwealth, introduced a bill
to prevent train conductors and brake
men from flirting with women passen
gers.
The Indiana lawmakers did pretty
well. Early in the session Representa
tive Fornshell arose to prevent what be
called an "antl-jair-bird flower-senders'
bill." The idea was to repress those
ardent female sentimentalists who send
boqneta to convicted felons, wife mur
derers preferred. Something yery like
a riot ensued. Tbe women had a lobby
tn -Indianapolis and its forces were
promptly concentrated on Mr Forn
ehell's little bill, with fatal effect.
He sought evenge by presenting a
high theatre bat bill, and awaited vic
tory with confidence. Again tbe women
foiled tne "villyun." There were eleven
widowers and ' twenty-one bachelors in
tbe lower bouse. The women mar
shalled them to their defence to a man,
and Fornsh ell's measure m en t down to
death nnder a heap of "tool" amend
ments, such aa requiring meu to remove
their boots before going to the theatre
and preventing tbe "going-out-to-see-a
man" act between acta.
A floosier from the Wabash vslley
wanted a law requiring all menus that
is, of course, bills of fare to be printed
in English. He wept to see it tabled
and gave np - tbe liber'ies of a tree peo
pie as lost.
In Mr Bryan's state a bill was intro
duced making football a crime. It came
back from a committee carrying a rider
which made long hair and whiskers pre
sumptive evidence ot a football diathe
sis; whereupon the "pops" turned and
fled.
In Minnesota Senator Keller tried to
get a bill through requiring all saloon
keepers to display a red illuminated
sign of "danger." Both tbe Dakotaa
narrowly escaped theatre bat bills, aod
North Dakota is still considering a
measure to establish a state board for
the examination of barbers.
Among the anti trust and anU-corpo-ration
bills have been tbe gas bids in
Albany, a bill ia vVyoming to tax in
surance companies two and one-half
per cent on their gross receipts; in
North Dakota, requiring railroads to
beasaeaeed for taxation not lees than
15,000 a mile; in Sooth Carolina, a grad
uated income and license tax on corpo
ra 'Jons, amounting, in almost every
ease, according to a Charleston paper,
to confiscation; in Washington, a b.ll
fixing the freight on farm products at
93.50a hundred per 300 miles; in North
Carolina, a bill to invalidate go'd con
tracts; ia Washington, a bill fixing the
maximam toll for grinding grain, aod
in Missouri, a Jill reducing freight on
farm products trom fifteen to thirty five
per cent flat.
In Otiaboma a bill was introduced to
enable citizens to da business without
raooey. A territorial board of control
ia provided, and eacb couol-treasurer
iS manager of tbe county and lesaes
script for deposits of products or on
loans to be for less than $1,000, aed all
script to be good for payment of lazes
and legal tender within lbs territory.
After receiving this bill a resolution was
paased declaring for m vigorous cot in
the salaries of the presidents, professors
and teachers of the educational institu
tions. The Missouri vagrancy law, nnder
wbich vagrants were sold at auction into
service, bas been repealed. In Alaba
ma the operation of nickel ia tbe slot
machines was made a misdemeanor,
finable np to tbe snm of 91,000.
It is an ac'.ua! fact, vouched for by
tbe records, that tbe legislature of Indi
ana seriously considered a bi I proposing
to change tbe existing ratio between the
diameter aod circumference of a circle
from 3.H16 to 3 2. The author repre
sented that tbe change would greatly
simplify inaibemaiical calculations,
wbich be said were unduly complicated
by the four decimal places and the pins
sign. Tbe senate, quick to see tbe ad
vantage of this improvement oo tbe
Creator's original plan, was about to
pass the bill, when someone arose with
blanched face and awful eyes to suggest
that the bill was out of order, tbe s-nate
n' t having the right t? "declare a truth."
Nobody seemed to understood exactly
what this meant, but it sounded so omin
ous that the eeoate backed water aod
left the ratio as the Lord and Euclid left
them.
Tbe prize tor wisdom and humanity

years. K. Y. Herald.
In Washington State the rouse, by a
vote of 41 to 21. passed tbe Gentz biil to
reduce the telegraph tolls in tbe Stale.
Tbe bill provides that it shall be unlaw
ful tor any telegraph company to charge
more than a cent and half per word for
transmitting a message from any point
to another given in the state of Washing
ton, provided, however, that a minimum
charge be made of 25 cents, irrespective
of the number of words contained in the
mesasge, and provided, further, that tbe
charge for any message of ten words or
more received or forwarded from a dis
tance of 200 miles or less, sb V.I be not to
exceed the sum ot cents per word.

It is to be feared that there will be a

SATURDAY NIGHT THOUGHTS!
One can hardly look over tbe past
week without seeing uppermost in the
event, so far as prominence was given it
by the press generally, the great Driae
fight at Carson. As a pugilistic encount
er with hard gloves It proved the great
est In the history ot the world. The in
fluence on the public at large certainly
has not been good. In fact the tendency
is materially towards leading tbe boys of
the country astray. The event was par
ticularly notable because upheld and
licensed by a state, wbich gained an lm
mense amount of notoriety on account
of it. Carson, tbe scene of It, hardly
known before, during the week has been
mentioned oltener than Chicago or New
York. The governor figures out that in
a financial way tt was a big thing for
Nevada. A state almost collapsed, it
was sort of a straw to a drowning man,
and it is probable Nevada will continue
to exist, to be despised by the better
element for caviling to something tabooed
by other states.
In Albany the main incident ot tbe
week has been a cats ot whipping by a
teacher. There always bas been whin
ping in school and probably will contin
ue to be tor awhile, though tbe senti
ment is gradually growing against it.
Now most people think It is nece-ssry,
and a jury In nineteen cases out of twenty
will decide in favor of the teacher w bo
baa been arrested even for its severe nee.
Nevertheless tbe Dbmocbat wan is op
posed to it, and believes the time will
come when more advanced system! fl
government in tbe scbool'room will be
in vogue. As war is giving away to ar
bitration so will tbe whip gradually
grow leas.

James Martin, a well to do farmer, re
cently died, leaving a will by which be
disinherit d bis only daughter, the result
of a disagreement about a valentine SO
years ago, says a Bai'ietriile, Pa., special
to tte New York Press. It wa a few
days before St. Valentine's dev. 50 years
ago, when the daughter asked ber father
for a new dress. He refused to hoy :t
for ber. Tbe girl took ber father's re
tusat much to heart. OoSl. VaSeotine'a
day Mr. Martin received a valentine ad
dressed to htm in hit dattili'er's band
writing. It was a rjngh caricature, representing
a miser counting and gloating over his
money. Ue at once took bis daughter to
task for what he considered an ioault.
She denied that she sent the cartoon
There lived in the neighb t'liood as-other

said that she and this gin had piKThaiw-d
each a valentine and that she ( ! Mar
tin) had bought one entitled 'Tne Hon

purchased tbe caricature to i-nd to her
barsb uncle. In addressing the enve
lopes tbe valentines, she said, became
mixed.
But in epi'e of ezptanat on. Mr. Ma
tin would not believe his daiwhtrr, and
trom that day he never sp-ike to hr.
She soon married and lived on a farm
adjoining-, and. although, the old man
was on the most familiar term- with tbe

Editor Dbmochat:
Will yon permit me for a moment to
ask your many readers to consider the
difference between then and now? The
difference very greataswill more clear
ly appear from the following statement:
When McfCinley introduced his cele
brated tariff bill In IStrO it was entitled,
"A bill to reduce the revenue," and, by
tbe way, it did reduea If. Now the re
publicans tn congress are putting tor
ward a bill very similarly prepared by
Dingley and they have given this bill the
