pears o'sowhere.
William Kriokbaum seems to bo dull
of comprehension. "Wo will endeavor
to enlighten him. In our issuo of
July 6, referring to his Btory that Geo.
E. Elwell had sought to securo the ap
pointment aa Judgo wo said: "We
denounce the allegation as a malicious
lie. There is not tho slight
est foundation in fact for the story, as
no such arrangement was ever content-
Elated, suggested or eyen thought of
y anybody," and wo proved it by
Gov. Pattison's letter.
In his last week's paper Krickbaum
says, "Is it not a fact that there were
schemes on foot to have George ap
pointed in oaso his father should re
sign? He does not and cannot deny
this."
Hero is another one of his charac
teristic misrepresentations; for what
he says "is not and can not be denied,"
is exactly what wo did deny, and prove
most conclusively to be false two
weeks before. His insinuation casting
doubt upon the genuineness of Gov.
Pattison's letter is too small to merit
notice. Wo would, however, suggest
that it will cost but two cents to send
a copy of tho letter as printed to Gov.
Pattison with an inquiry as to whether
ho wrote it. Tho original letter can
be seen by any body at this office.
But William forgets that wo throw
down the gauntlet with a distinot chal
lenge. We charged hira with mali
cious falsehood, and challenged him to
name his informant or produce his
proofs. He utterly fails in both these
particulars; he does not even seek to
screen himself behind his first weak
assertion that a "gentleman informed
him." By his failuro to accept our
challonge, he admits the falsity of his
allegations. His only attempt to
wriggle out, consists in a repetition of
the same old exploded 1 o. Ho says
"Unless there aro hosts of uncalled for
liars, George's course in connection
with tho judgeship has been anything
but oroditablo to himself, to say noth
ing of the disoredit it refleots upon his
father.''
There has been but one "uncalled
for liar," and be is the one who has
manufactured, and put in circulation
the numerous falsehoods in regard to
this matter. He is the ono whom we
have conclusively convicted of it, and
ma name is rvncKuaum. Again we
challenge him to produce any proofs o
t
any "discreditable action concerning
the judgeship; again we say that his
insinuation that there ever were
schemes on foot, of any character or
description, by Geo. E. Elwell, or any
ono for him, to securo the appointment
of Judge,- under any circumstances
whatever, is a lie out of . tho whole
cloth, of which ho is tho author.
Discreditable action! What can be
more discreditable than tho conduct of
this man, whose malico leads him to
utter untruths, but whose honor does
not load him to admit that he is wrong
even after his fabrications bavo been
annihilated by the most indisputable
evidence! But wo cannot hope to re
form him in this respect. Misrepresen
tation is his stock in trade, and to do
priyo hira of that would bo to drivo
him out of business.
WASHINGTON LETTER.

Washington, July 23, 1888.
Representative Mills was a proud
man Saturday as he stood up in tho
Houso to mako a short speech, just be

bill. The galleries wore crowded as
they had not been since the day that

likely to go down to posterity in the
great tanll debate of 1888. Mr. Mills
began by Btating tho prepont mirplus
in tuo treasury to bo SISJ'J.OOO.OOO,
which represents unnecessary taxation
upon tnu people, this enormous
amount of monoy is constantly lower
ing prices, and piling an enormous
load oo labor, and iuoreasing the ben.
cfita of the privileged classes. How
long will it bo before Btacnation will
occur, and bankruptry and ruin Hock
togetuer over tno land! Tho majority
navo attempted to bring before tho
J louse a bill to reduce this taxation
and lexcen the How of money into tlie
treasury. By amendments made iu
committeo of tho whole, the relative
rate oi duty has been placed at $42.99
on tne hundred. Ihis moderate bill
has beon mot by a storm of denunoi a
tion, and oharacterized aa a free trade
infasuro. Is $-12.99 on tho hundred,
irro trade! Mr. Mills then took up
tho bill in detail, and rapidly pasBed
through it, pointing out Ills advantages
a no went llioug. j vote being ta

ii huh uiu renuit was announced oheeij
after cheer burnt spontaneously fron?
tho Uemocratio side of the House,
wiuiu uio air was mil oi hats and red
bandannas. Onlv four democrats
votod against tho bill Messrs. Sow
den, Alcrriman, Urcenman, ana hubs.
Two repnbllonns voted for it. With
this bill, tho demoorntia party appoal
to tho country for another four years
lcaso of power, and tho pcoplo will
gtvo it to thorn.
Mrs. Clovoland celebrated her 1 1th
birthday on Saturday, by attending
tbo Capital to bear Mr. Mills' speech,
and to witnoss tho final voto on tho
tariff bill. In the evening thoro was a
miot family dinner at Oak Viow.
Sho has rcooived many letters and
telegrams of congratulation.
The aonato having ogrced to drop
tho objcctlonablo canal amendments to
tho Rlvor and Harbor bill, tho Houso
passed it, and it is now in the bands of
tho l'roslucnt.
It is now gcnorally ooncoded that it
will bo impossible for Congress to ad
lourn boforo Sentcmbcr.
Chlof Justioo Molvillo W. Fuller - -
that's tho way to write it now. Tho
Ropublioans, after all thoir trouble,
could only get twenty votes against
Mr. Fuller's confirmation, whilo forty
ono voted in favor of it.
Senator Ransom, who is a member
of tho democratic national commlttoe,
vohomently denies tho rumor that Mr.
Brico, tho ohairman of tho oxeoutivo
committee, was indignant ot intorfer
enco from tho Whito Houso in tho
managoment of tbo campaign.
"Why", said tho Senator, "Tho presi
dent could not bo induced to interfero
in n matter of this kind. It is not his
way. No sir. Wo discussed tbo en
tire question of organization in all its
details in our own way, independent
of any outsido pressure." Colonol
Diok Bright, of Indiana, Sergeant nt
arms of the National committee, like
wise denies tho rumor. He says tbo
President has bcon consulted, as is
only right and proper, but all that tho
President insisted on, was that tho
campaign should be fought in a bold,
open, and courageous manner without
anv attemuts to evado anv responsibi
lities or mako any apoligics. Tho Re
publicans will soon find out that thero
is no trouble among tho members of
tho National Committee.
Tho Houso Committee on Agricul
ture has decided to postpono until De
cember, the consideration of tho vari
ous bills to regulate tho manufacture
of compounded lard.
Tho Honso committeo to investigate
contract and pauper imigration, will go
to New York this Week. From there
they will probably go to Boston, and
late in the fall, thoy expect to go to
San Francisco.
Senator Morgan mado a good point
against Sonator Mitchell Friday, whilo
a bill to restrict Chinese imigration
was under dsseussion. Mr. Mitchell,
speaking in favor of tho bill, said that
it was intended to carry into oitect uio
provisions ot the pending umneae
Treaty. Ho then proceeded to attack
the treaty as a sham, a fraud, and a
deception. "I cannot understand'
said Mr. Morgan, "why tho gentleman
would vote for a bill to carrv into ef
fect a treaty which be Bays is a sham
and a fraud."
It is stated that Representative W.
L. Scott, of Pa., will decline another
nomination to Congress. Also Rep.
P. H. Collins of Mass. Tho names of
both gentlemen have been mentioned
as probable members of Mr. Cleve
land's next administration. Perhaps
that accounts for their retiring from
the House.
Amenoan Politics in England.
It is tho cue of the high tariff mon
opoly organs to quote the opinions of
the English press on the tariff issue in
this country, that is, when those opin
ions suit their purpose of appealing to
tho distrust of England whioh prevails
largely in tne united stales, tiut
they are very careful not to admit to
their columns any expression ot the
English journals not conducivo to their
narrow and contemptible object. Sir
LioLcl Saokville Wost, tbo British min
ister at Washington, Baid in an inter
view tho other eay, that the American
tariff question was not understood in
England, and that tbo idea entertain
ed by some people in England that
President Cleveland's recommendation
for a rovision of tho tariff is a freo
trade movement, is a misconception.
But the Londou Chronicle evidently
understands the purposo of the demo
cratic tariff policy well enough. The
other day it dropped this remark in the
course of a long editorial stating both
sides nf the tariff question in the Uni
ted States : "Tho argument of the
democrats is that free trade raw ma
terials will enable tho American man
ufacturers to oomnete in the markets
of the world ; a truth which JSnaland
and Germany will be apt to realize
someday." Neither Minister AVest's
admission oi England's ignoranco
on the subject of tho tariff in the Uni.
ted States, nor the London Chronicle'
equally significent contention, has
found its way into tho columns of the
high tariff monopoly organ-.
It will not be at all surprising if af
ter the editors of the English journals
shall have learned the real purpose of
tho tariff reform proposed by President
Cleveland they will earnestly depre
ciate its sucooHx. They will see their
mistake, as Minister West clearly
points it out and as the London Chron
icle incidentally admits it. It is so
plain that bo who runs may read that
irco raw materials for American man
ufacturers would bo the severest blow
that can possibly bo inflicted upon
English commerce. In tho item of
woolen manufacturers, for examplo, if
wool were duty frco tho threo hundred
millions of dollars' worth of woolen
goods now imported into this country
would bo sun-iy in a few yoars manu
factured at home. Tho Iqhs of tho
American woolon goods market to tho
English manufacturers would bo a tor-
ribiu infliction and therefore the Eng
lish journals will bo either deliberately
playing into the hands of the repub
lican teaaers or mauiy striking down
the interests of their homo woolen
industry, by supporting tho polioy of
President Cleveland favoring the ab
olition of the duties on raw wool. It
is, indeed, more than likely that thoso
journals aro in collusion with tho high
tariff monopoly politicians of this coun
try, for it is their interest to be, and
the recent endorsement of Harrison
and Morton by tho British American
association at Boston, which Blmultau.

It will not bo many days before tho

the English manufacturers discover
that tho only freo trade proposed by
the democrats is protection to Ameri

firmness of Jackson, tho cquipoiso of
Washington and the moral frankness
of John Qulncy Adams unite in Grover
Ulovelanu with the intellectual qualities
of Thomas Jefferson, improved in the
case of the Now Yorker by a profound

The provisions of the Mills bill, as
amended and passed by tho lower
house, do not radically change the geu
eral soopo of tho measure outlined by
its framcr iu bis introductory speocli.
The fundamental idea of tho b'.ll is to
promote tho prosperity of the masses
of tho people without impairing in any
vital part tho actual1 protection afford
ed to any industry in whioh tho ele
ment of labor enters in just proportion.
Raw wool is put upon tho frco list and
tho duty on tho manufactured products
has been deoreascd only to such a fig
ure as will afford the laborers protect
ion and tho manufacturers a lugitimato
margin of profit. In other words, the
duty upon the mauufactured woolen
article more nearlyrepresentstho differ
ence between tho wages paid in this
country and abroad. This is bo obvi
ously in the interest of consumers,
among whom ever laborer's family is
classed, as to need no explanation to
men of impartial mind. With raw
wool free to the employers of wool
workers it is inevitable, under normal
conditions, that laborers in this depart
ment should be more steadily employ

has been levied for years for the bone-
bt of tho .Michigan millionaires, who
have paid their workmen a ridiculously
insignificant portion of their profits.
Tho sentiment with regard to free cop
per among the Western members out
side of Michigan was tersely stated by
Congressman Brown, of Indiana, who
said in tho Houso : "I would mako
copper ore free as quick as lightning."
This declaration elicited marked ap
Jilause, partly becauso of its apparent

Manufactured brasses are reduoed
only five per cent. Into these tho ele

tho duty is well maintained in order
that American laborers may bo protect

for any reduction in tbo wages of tho
brass workers. Although tho manu

A Feonhar Life Story. t
HUSBAND AND WIFE LIVE TOGETHER
TWELVE YEARS WITHOUT
6PEAKINO.
Chicago, July 23. A strange life
story with a remarkable climax ended
to-day when James Uutclnns, a well
to-do resident of this city, was buried
from Ins house on Sherman Avenue
Mr. Hutuhins' death occurred just as
the night was closing on Saturday.
Tbo doathbed sccno in this comtorta
ble homo was an extraordinary one.
The dying man had not spoken a word
to his wifo in twelvo years, and for
that timo tuey bad occupied separate
rooms, tie was a singular and obsti
ntao man. Dr. Parsons told him ho
bad only a few hours to' live. Mrs.
Hutchins was crying, and tbo dying
man, who with, open eyes, watched
her. With a sudden impulse of a lovo
that had survived tho years of cruel
treatment, Mrs. Hutchins throw hor
arms around her husband s neck.kissod
bim fondly and begged him to speak
to her once to break, before ho died,
tho Bilcnco ot a dozen years.
There was a struggle apparent in his
countenance. His lips opened as if to
speak, but only an inarticulate Bound
camo from them. His face grew Bet
and etern again. Ho slightly repulsed
her and ho was taken with a spasm of
couching, lie asked tho doctor for a
drink of water. Mrs. Hutchins made
no further attempt at a reconciliation
and in an halt hour her husband died.
Tho story of Mrs. Hutchins' peculiar
treatment has been a subject for tho
talk and wonder of thu neighbois.
They were married thirty years ago in
England. Ho was a handsomo foot
soldier of tho British Army and sho
was a mend ot his mother. Thoy
came to tbo Town of Lako sixteen
years ago, and bo got work with tho
Union biook lards uompanv. lie
met Henry Barroff, and as fellow-
workmen thoy became Btrong friends
and Barrnff, who was unmarried, used
to visit Hutchins many a timo at his
houso. One evoniug Ban off dropped
In before Hutchins had returned from
his work. Ho sat down and prcsentl
Hutchins camo in.
"Hello Barroff, how are you 1" said
bo.
"How d'yo do, Jim," said Barrcff,
and the conversation proceeded social
ly for an hour or two, when BarrofI
went homo.
As soon as tho door closed behind
him Hutchins charged his wifo with
infidelity. Ho broke into a frightful
paffiou. lie- would hear no reply or
explanation anu onuod mo scene by
looking himself up in another room.
Mrs. Hutohlns could not understand
it. Thoir married lifo had boon happy
until this timo and had been blessed
by a lino boy. Shn got supper, dried
her tears, knookod on her husband's
door and told bim supper was ready.
Ho ato his meal without a word and
in sullen silcnoo smoked his pipo until
bed time. Sho mado ono or two ot
tempts lo Bay something without avail,
lie retired to their bed room whilo bIio
spent tho night in another room. In
tho morning it wos tho samo way.
Ho ate his breakfast nnd wont to work
muto as a post This life wont on for
days, and weeks and yoars, l o novel
saying a word to her. sometimes bo
wroto his request on a pit-oo ot paper.
Sometimes cho called in n neighbor's
child and talked to him through tho
child. Ho Hlwoya Bpoko pleapftntlv on
thoso occasions, but frowned ami be
came stern if she ventured to address
him direolly. Ho mido her an altow
anco of $25 a month for tho household
expenses and her own clothes.
Hutchins was a provident, thrifty
man nnd accumulated monoy, bought
houses and lots and mado loans, lie
wos 50 years old when ho died, and
during recent yiars bo hud not worked.
His wifo through heir boy, asked for
more monoy than $25 " a month.
Hutobins grow violent nnd throw $111
at her. She never asked him for mon
ey again. Mrs. Hutchins, tho neigh
bors say, used to cry a great deal, and
two or threo times her husband was
Beon to weep violontly when he
thought ho was not observed, but of
lata years both have gone on in n mat-tcr-of-fact
way. Thoir son married
and went West threo or four years
ago.
Their solitary lifo went on as beroro
until o week ago, when Hutchins was
taken ill. Dr. Parsons said ho had
typhoid fover. Mrs. Hutohins cared
for him, gave him medicino and per
formed all the offices of tho sick cham
ber Ho never Bpoko to hor, and ao
oepted her attentions in tho samo Bi
lenco that he had observed for twelvo
years. Mrs. HutchinB has uo idea of
what property was lolt or what monoy
was loaned. The only business she
did was once in a while to collect rents
for her husband and givo receipts
signed by him.

A Perpetual Bailroad Pass-
Perpetual railroad pass is a pretty
rare thing to have, but n mau living in
Attlcsborough, oa the line of the Boa
ton and Providence railroad, possesses
ono of those passes. In 183G, wbon
the Boston and Providence Road
was being built, Mr. Jolm C. Doge
convoyed to it a portion of bis land, in
consideration that ho and his family
should rido freo oer the railroad as
long as tho land was usod for railroad
purposes. A D-randson of Mr. Doi'O
lately claimed tbat ho was entitled to
the privilego namod in tho deed and
that tho word lamily meant "dctcen
dants" of tho grantor. Tho railroad
company opposed tho demand, but the
supremo Uourt of Massachusetts dc
cided that tho railroad must carry free
the descendants of Mr. Dogo for all
time. jzx.
