In the Arkansaw legislature: Mem ber from Sandstone Knob Mr. Speak er, I hope sir. that vou will let me h ivc a few minutes' time in which to placa myself square on the record. Yesterday evening Sir. Euckley Erown, from Hum Bottoms, sad that I had accepted the present of a new hat from a railroad superintendent, and hinted in a way inclined to sting a sensativc man, that I had practically sold myse:f. ' I should like to know if there is anything in our constitution that prevents a man from accepting presents. I say there is not, and, sir, when our constitution arises and says thut I shan't take everything that is given to me, then I will say. "Mi. Con stitution, attend to your own affairs." Mr. Speaker, I am a present taker, and as an encouragement to those who may contemplate giving me something, Lt me say that my capacity for taking presents, although well developed, has not been overtaxed. I may also say that the man who won't take a hat and thereby s ive the expense of buy ing one, is composed of a mixture of foul, liar and thief. I'd be afraid to meet such a man away out in the woods. I .vould feel sure that he would knock mo down and rob me. 1 know of an affair in my country that strongly illustrates the dishonesty of men v ho are afraid to accept presents. A rod-bearded fellow named Watson yw.Mtt t'.i wiiili for Mfi Ciarfri ad-made new how to appreciate merit, went o him and said: " ''Nv atson, I never had a man that think more of than I do of you." " 'Much ob'ceged lo you,' replied Watson. " 'And I have decided,' Clark con tinued, 'to give you my daughter, Lo- en:i." " 'Much oblecged to you' said Wat son, 'but I ain't accoptin'any presents.' "Well, Mr. Speaker, that man was so honest that he would not accept the daughter as a present, but the next day he ran away with Clark's wife. Sinco then I have been extremelv sus- icious cf men who are too high-toned to accept presents, and to keep otlier fair-minded men from suspecting me, . Lave determined to refuse nothing." Arkansaw Traveler The tt'oilil. The republican senate was willing to trust the administtatioa with the expenditure of eight times 23,000,00 as proved by its votes. Its motto was "anything to get rid of the surplus; all means to rrcvent reduction ofthe bounties of protected monopolies." The democratic house properly refused to squander the surplus, though it had proved itself incapable of reducing the taxes that produce it It vo'.ed all the money that can be economically and v isely used to carry on the work of reconstructing the navy from the ruin into which it fell under the repub lican rule. President Cleveland again showed himself capable of correcting a mistake by giving to the river and harbor bill the "Uent veto" which the World yesterday urged him to mote out to it. Last year he signed a bad bill appro priating $14,000,000 and containing marry jobs. This year's bill was passed in an unusually scandalous manner. It was not considered by the house, but was simply rushed through. The Senate added $3,000, 000 to it, including $50,000 as an en tering wedge for the Hennepin canal scheme. The President has done well to save $10,000,000 from the surpbrs squanderers. The Boston Piecord advises fresh men in college to keep a diary though- out the course. It is a fact that the diary for the first year would be, as a rule, interesting, if written candidly An account of a freshman's feelings when held under a pump or smoked out would be harrowing enough to turn a small boy's hair gray. at a yaE OF TIDE. President Cleveland's "pocket veto" of the river and harbor bill on consti tutional grounds struck dumb with' surpiise a largo portion of the poople. The rapid transit of tho ship of slate . on the republican centralization sched ule had in twenty-five years almost made the people forget thst there are such sacred and important things as constitutional imitations upon the power of congress, and tho very name of "States rights" had almost become a mere memory. The assertion by the president of the proposition that the little State creeks were not the subjects pf congressional appropriation has made the people scratch their heads like old Bid Van Winkle and to bc- i . - eeciom is i.ue jonstiiuuonai Jtmiia- tiona of the great central Federal pow er. That power is .intended for the protection of the masses, but it is in herently so great that it might, if un checked, turn into oppression. Al ready the masses ot the people every where since lepubhcan rule began have learned to look with dislike upon the Federal courts and to dub them the railroad barons' courts. So the laud offices all over the country have until recently always decided favorably to the great corporations. And so with most of the other branches and arms of the government. ' The idea was get ting prevalent among tho unthinking that Uncle Sam's government could do anything; and were rapidly drift ing away to the sea of unlimited Fed eral power where every tight of the citizen would bo subject to the wishes of the railroad barons through the various arms and departments of tie government. ,Now however thought ful men are raising the note cf alarm and the tide has changed. Under tho impetus of democratic ascendency we are slowly drifting back to the safe and constitutional mocrings of the fathers of the Great Republic. Evening Demociat. -I Poser. Tiobcrt Purvis, ona of the founders and many years the president of the Anti-Slavery society, in a reminiscent mood yesterday said: "During slavery days Wendell Phillips lectured one evening of a' day on which a number, of Methodist ministers held a confer--. samo train with Phillips. One of the ministers, a big blustering fellow, in quired in a loud voice if Wendell Phillips was ou the train. Yes, sir; there he is,' answered the conductor, jtointing to the great abo litionist, who sat quietly in the rear of the car. "The inquiry naturally excited a great deal of interest, and everybody in the car turned around to take a look at the man then so much talked about. ' 'You're Wendell Phillips, ate youV yelled the minister, half turning in his seat. " 'Yes, sir that is my name,' re plied Phillips, with characteristic blandncss of voice. " 'Well, sir, I was just about writ ing you a letter ' " 'Indeed; I should no doubt have had great pleasuie in reading it.' "No, you wouldn't! No, you wouldn't! I was going to give you some sound advice. I want you to understand, sir, that there are no slaves up north here. You have no right lo go about raising disturbances and delivering uu . .1 . 1 1 . 1 i 't pleasant lectures. y ny uuu 1 you gu down south and lecturel'' " 'Sir,' eaid Phillips, half rising in iis seat, you are a ministt'r of tho gospel, are you notl "Yes, sir." " 'It is your, mission to save soula from hell, is it notl' "Yes, sir." " 'Then why don't you go there!' "In the tumult of laughter that fol lowed the minister grabbed hia valise and fled to another car."--Philadelphia Times. lit will no doubt make Bismarck's eves water to be informed that the militia strength of the United States is 8,500,000 men; and if the German Chancellor ever saw a militia company in line on muster day he will know what these figures mean to any nation that shoeld attempt to ruffle the pin ions of the American eagle. Perhaps God shows us things, some times and puts them away again for us, to give us by and by, when we are bigger; as mothers do with children's playthings that are too beautiful foe them to have right off. The reason why General Den But ler's recent fall on an icy pavement did no harm is accounted on the ground that two slippery surfaces coming in contact rarely injures either force. It ia sometliing like an expression of mu tual admiration. 1 A i ( 1 - 1 J
