Among this great pilo of uripcre
received by yesterday'.! steamer
was one tbe Morning News
published at "Wilmington, Dela
ware, which has a leading edito
rial on the Chinese question. "We
quete:
'As to the shocking inhumanity
'of President Arthur in neglecting
"to sympathize with the roughs of
'San Francisco and tup despera
''does of the raining camps who,
'so long as the Chinese stay, will
'have to go on hunting thnni down
"like so many rats, and committ
"ting casual murders when tho
"powerful heathens will not
-'part with their enormous earn
ings upon less compulsion,
"the matter only needs to be
"stated in order to show what a
"cold-blooded tyrant Mr. Arthur
'is, and how indifferent he is to
"those well-worn maxims of per
gonal rights and individual liberty
"which have come down to us
"from the fathers of the Repub
lic." " This is given simply as an ex
ample of the eastern style of look
ing at this matter, and as an ex
emplification of the density of the
bettled prejudice that would per
mit such attempt at irony in what
appears to be a well-meaning and
intelligent journal.
Washington Letter.
From oar Regular Coiroipondent.
WAsnixoxox, D. C, April 10, IS.'.
It may as well be granted that
the tariff commission bill will be
come a law, and that the Presi
dent will have to appoint nine
commissioners from ciil life to
take in consideration the present
tariff, how it affects the various in
dustries of the country and rec
ommend to Congress what changes
ought to be made in it. There are
already a good many candidates
for these nine positions and the
President has, it i3 said, a consid
erable list of men who believe
themselves or are believed by their
friends to be eligible. There is
some reason to think tlmt o-Sec-retary
Kirlcvooii will lie one of the
commi-Moiier-' if he wishes the
place. Concerning tlm other-
nothing is known. When the com
mission comes to he made up, if it
is honestly done, it will be home
thing of a question to determine,
the scale upon which the great in
dustries Of the country shall be
represented. The nine commis
sioners should represent fjirly and
proportionately the "industries of
the whole Union. To begin with,
at least four of the commissioners
should repreentagriculture North
and South. Thi-, is the largest and
most important interest in the
country. Wheat and the other
grains, beef and the other meats,
cotton, sugar and hay, not to speak
of other minor agricultural indus
tries, employ more people and in
terest more families than all the
other industries in the coun
try taken together, and to give the
agricultural interest lour repre
sentatives on the commission would
be to give too little rather than too
much. To give to tho raisers of
grain, cotton, beef and porkj sugar,
hay and fruit less than four com
missioners would necessarily cause
great disaappointment and distrust
among the agricultural class of the
fairness of the commission and the
utility of its work. Then conies
the manufacturing interest, cot
ton, lumber and mining interests,
all of which should be considered
proportionately to their relations
to the tariff and each other.
There is a great deal of build
ing going on here this season and
the Capital will improve greatly
during the year as it has been in
"past years. Among the new build
ings just begun is one for the
money order division of the
, Postoffioe Department. The De
partment is rapidly outgrowing
the building, whioh when erected
some years ago, was regarded
atnplo for Tall time. Senator
"ft indom's -new Jiouse is nearly
ready foe occupancy, and so is the
spacious ano built by Mr. Blaine,
But the latter and his family will
not move in before noxt autumn,
as thoy propose .spending tho sum-1
tner out of "Washington, as usual, j
Senator and Mrs. Windom will t
probably move into theirs, which i
.1 -i ii. i
?b;r"Z;r;S'!
Senator Piatt, of New York, pur-
chased and settled ou his wife ,
just a year ago, has stood empty
ever since last November, when ,
Senator and Mrs. "Windoni gave it
up. Mrs. Piatt, hoping to rent it, j
came here and refurnished it '
throughout very sumptuously, but ,
has not found a tenant. These
three houses, all very handsome
and specially adapted for enter
tabling, stand as monuments to
the futility of human hopes ami
ambitions, which was never mini-, j
forcibly exemplified than by the
brief duration of the Garfield
administration and the consequent
change of plans of those -who had
expected to shine during its
continuance, which ther certainly
believed would be four yeats tit
least. Since he is a senator, as lie
was before his brief experiencu in
the cabinet, Mr. Wiudom will not
look upon his big, new house as a
'white elephant; still is probably as
true of him as of Mr. Blaine that
he began building with a view to
the icquirements of a cabinet
officer's residence. Perhaps othei -wise,
both gentlemen would have
been satisfied with the bouses they
had used while senators, for Mr.
Blaine also used his while speaker,
when it was customary for the
speaker to have public evening
receptions, like those of the Presi
dent, ouee a week. It may be
considered, certain that had Mr.
Piatt waited a week or two he
would not have bought a house
here at all.
Since the. end of Lent the
Capital has been very lively s-oji-ally,
politically, and generally.
Congress has not stirred up much
dust, but it keeps pegging away
and matters are shaping for more
lively work in tho next two months.
The Democrats give up beaten on
the tariff question, in the piesent
Congress at least, and the coin
mission bill is certain to become a
law. Several contested election
ca-es have been settled by the
election commute.; and are teady
to be repotted to the limine.
There U likely to be some n.usio
when the teport comes up for
consideration, but there is but lit
tles doubt that the committee's
conclusion will be sustained.
Captain Ilowgate gave us another
sensation by eluding a deputy
marshal who had been sent with
him to his house, and the faet re
moved whatever doubts prev ion
ly existed of his guilt. It cannot
be that he really expected to es
cape beyond recapture, but he
may have regarded his case mj
desperate anyhow that it could
not be made any worse by the at
tempt. Tho Star-route prosecu
tions promises to occupy some at
tention for tho next four weeks and
we shall ste whether the govern
ment is powerless to convict ras
cals who steal from and swindle it
under cover of law. Si'OT.
Iowa judges complain because
tho lawyers talk so long. One of
the judges recently asserted that
thcstateispayingannually 1,000,
090 for unnecessary gab in the
courts.
Eastern-hound shipmasters at
Boston are paying for the privilege
of carrying wheat in ballast free of
eost to-Liverpool. If the wheat is
damaged"in transit the ship-owner
must make good all loss.
The Milwaukee Orangemen hav e
sent Congress a petition .that
further emigration of Irish Cath
olics be prohibited. If there be
anything more idiotic reported in
tbe way of petitions we have not
yet heard of it.
