It is not to be wondered at that the
Republican Senators want to adjourn.
Their misfortunes do not como singly,
but in troops. They thought to take
the wind out of tho Mills hill by' a
more popular measure of their own,
but after wasting weeks in the endea
vor to frame a revenue bill that wonld
not hurt their friends somewhere they
find themselves getting deeper and
deeper into trouble. They hoped to
make some capital out of the fisheries
treaty, but in rejecting it the president
hadthe opportunity to convince the conn
try that he was much more desirous of
maintaining the rights of American
citizens than they were. And to cap
all, Mr. Blaine in his frantic speech
about trusts gavo away tho whole Re
publican game and made it apparent
that ths Republican policy is to be one
of protection to trusts, instead of the
consumers, upon whom the trusts levy
their exactions. The Senatorial
desire to run needs no further expla
nation Times.
WABfflpGTOH LETTEB-
from oar Regular Correspondent.
Ya siuhgton, Aug. 27, 1888.
"It's the greatest state paper that
has emanated from the White House
for many years. We are proud of our
President. He is an- American from
head to heels, ever' inch of him.
That message makes Mr. Cleveland's
election a certainty." Such were the
words of a careful, conservative busi
ness man, who has been inclined to bo
opposed to Mr. Cleveland, on reading
the manly message sent to Congress in
regard to our relations with Canada.
These sentiments are shared by nearly
everybody here, many republicans
joining the democrats in praising the
President for the straightforward,
sledgehammer manner in which he
placed tho subject before Congress.
The message has given Mr. Cleveland
a personal popularity which he never
possessed before, and has brought him
before the people in an entirely new
light It has created a degree of en
thusiasm among tho Democrats in
Congress that is bound to tell in the
conduct of the campaign. That Con
gress will give him the power he asks
for in order to retaliate on Canada,
cannot for a moment be doubted; a bill
to that efect has already been intro
duced in the House, acd the republi
can Senators, however much they
might like it, will not dare to refuse
to pass a similiar measure. Armed
with the proper authority, Mr. Cleve
land proposes that American interests
shall be protected at all hazards, and
he has seven-tenths of the people of
this country, irrespective of politics,
with him. Letters and telegrams of
congratulation have boon pouring into
the White House from all quarters,
proving that Mr. Cleveland has once
more struck the popular chord. No
better evidence of the shrewdness of
Mr, Cleveland in sending this mes
sage can be found, than the faces
of tho republican Senators. One of
them was heard to remark to another,
"Well, it's good by to the Irish vote
now; after that message they will bo
sure to stick to the Democrats."
Senator Kenna is looking after the
canvass in West Virginia.
Virginia Democrats laugh at tho
idea of the republicans claiming that
state, they say that it is as surely de
mocratic as Kentucky.
Tho House has patsed a resolution
revoking the leaves of all except sick
absentees. This action was taken for
several reasons. First, the House has
been for somo days without a quorum,
which fact has enabled the republicans
to block legislation. Second, and
principally, because it Is desired to
pass the bill already introduced, to
give Mr. Cleveland tho necessary au
thority to bring the Canadians to
their senses, while it is not known
that republicans will attempt to oppose
tho bill, it was thought best to take no
chances, therefore, tho absentees havo
been recalled.
Senatois Voorhees and Butler havo
gone to Virginia to make a few
Mieeohes.
Thero are still four of tho regular
appropriation bills that havo not yet

in a deadlock, tho Sundry Civil, and

passed by tho House, now in the
hands of the Sonato oommittoo. The
joint resolution extending tho old ap
propriation, expires Friday.
Both IIouso and Senato pension
committees have reduced the amount
of pension proposed for Mrs. Goo.
Sheridan from 85.000 to its 5 00.
Representative Cralne baa introduc

thorizing tho President to veto specifio
items in appropriation bills. It should

tho Government many millions of dol
lars every year, with a courageous

White House. It would effectually do

The republican Sonatori made an ef.
fort last week to get Congress to take
a two woeks recess, in order that they
might have time te prepare their sub

crats refuted to agree, and the effort
ended as tbeir ellorts to get np a
tariff bill seem likely to end, in failure.

How They All Take It
That element of the Republican
press which assumes freedom oi
thought without regard to the orders
ot party bosses is earnest in demand'
ing that the president should be strong,
ly supported in the polioy of retalia
tion. The most widely respected and hon
est journal of that party, the Philadel
phia ledger, declares the message to
be "wise, state-manlike and just," and
even so violent ad vadioal a sheet as
the Philadelphia Inquirer, urges con
sideration of the question on its merits
alone, and advises that Congress
snouia ao as the president asked. Ui
course there is an effort to impeach
ine motives mat prompted tne mes
sage and to treat it as a mere cam
paign trick, but the most labored acd
unfair attacks fail to shake the logio
of it, and no journal of influence has
ventured to suggest that the Senate
snouia refuse to support a polioy of re
taliation.
The Republican Senators cave the
floor to their throe best men that a
crushing answer might be made to the
scathing arraignment of them implied
by the president's calm statement of
facts, iufmnnds considered -t "an odd
business" and asserted that be would
"be glad intellectually" if the president
would tell him why he did not atop
the transhipment of fish at once. It
will appear to most men an odd busi
ness that the senator does not acquire
intellectual gladness by reading again
too statement of the president that
that measure of retaliation is too petty
iu mb ecope to nave any otner enect
inan the lniury ot our own and Cana
dian commerce.
If we were retaliating meielv for
the gratification of the petty spite so
familiar to the odd gentleman from
Vermont, the attack upon fish ship
ment wonld answer every purpose;
put we nave in an our intercourse with
Canada been actuated br a generous
neighborly spirit, and do not propose
at present to sn .p at her in small dog
fashion. We will simply pick up the
lion's cub by the back o! the neck and
hold her; there until she realizes how
small and contemptible her conduct
has been. The dignity of the nation
demands that, as the president has
well said, the plau of retaliation
should be thorough and vigorous.
Mr. Blaine declines to express an
opinion on the president's message.
Ho olsa refuses to talk about trusts.
but if anybody wants to" hear how
little providence has done for the
country, in comparison with the mar
velous benefits secured to it by a sys
tem of high taxes, James G. Blame
has lota to say. By and by when Mr.
ojmiuu miuKH do naa caugnt toe unit
of public opinion he will nrobablv
have something to say about Canada,
the treaty and the message.
By the way, the British friends of
Mr. Blaine will probably be heard
from, and we shall have less silly talk
of President Cleveland's friendship for
the English. It is in order for the
New York Tribune to suggest that
Sir Joseph Chamberlain wrote the
last presidental message on the fisher
ies question, as that paper has claimed
to know all along that Sir Joseph was

Very Aged Elopers.
A BENEDICT OK 75 DEPARTS WITH A
WIDOW OK CO YEARS.
Baltimore, Au r. 28. News of an
unusual and amusing elopement comes
from Centreville, Md., in which a mar
ried man 75 years of age and a widow
of GO figure. Both wero in mates of
the Queen Anne's County almshouse at
Uutbsberg, and tbe man leil a wile be
hind in the institution. George W.
Sullivan and Martha Morgan are the
names of the principals. The male
eloper had married many years ago a
well to do widow who helped him to
establish a business. Finauoial failure
oame upon them and their property
molted away, when all was gono
they sought shelter in tbo alms bouBe,
and here it was that Sullivan met Mrs.
Morgan.
They did not court in the grounds
of tho institution, whero the eye of
Mrs. Sullivan could not roach them.
Mrs. Morgan's son heard of his moth
er's intatuation aud threatened to
break tho old man's bead if he did not
let his mother alone. Then it was
that the aged couple determined to
elope. Tbo other night Sullivan bor
rowed a friendly neighbor's team, os
tensibly to visit tbe county town, and
in this way the pair hurried away to
Caroline County. Sinoe then they
hare not been heard from.
DEMOCRAT.
Germans in the Fight
tiiet oroanize to battle for tarikk
reform.
The initial meeting of what pro
mises to oo n nigmy inuucnttai organ
ization among tho German voters in
tho Stato was held last wock at the
rooms of tho Young Democratio Bat
talion, in Philadelphia. Tho invita
tions to attend tho meetings were
sent out a few days before and tho
gentlemen who put in an appcaranco
included raanv representative men of
that. nationality.
Mr. James a. licllem, called tho
meeting to order, and in doing so mado
a short address, in which ho spoko of
the duty of Germans evcrvwhero to
organize in the interests of tho Demo
cratio party. Ho referred to the valu
able work dono by tbe Ucrman Demo
oratio Association, whioh wai organ.
ized in 187G, when 1100 Germans were
naturalized in that city through tho ef
forts of that body, and just that many
aaauionai votes were secured lor Jur,
Tilden.
An election for temporary officers
was then held. Mr. Peter Klinges
was chosen President, and August
Kirschner nnd Frederick Eben wero
made Secretaries. It was stated that
tweuty-seven wards wero represented,
and assurances were given that the re
maining four wards would join the
movement at tho next meeting.
In tho spceohoi that followed ur
gent recoomendations were made that
branch organizations should be effect
ed in every warj, and after the citv
shall havo been thoroughly organized
it was recommended that tho work
should bo carried into every county in
the State. This plan meet with ap
proval, and in furtherance of the
scheme it was determined to call tho
organization tho Central Gorman De
mooratlo Association.
A committee of five, comprising
Georgo H. Hoffman, Albert II. Lad
ner, Jacob Eberhardt Henry Speck-
man and Herman Dilsheimcr, was ap
pointed to secure permanent quarters
and arrange for future meetings. It
is quite likely that Concordia Hall,
Fifth and Callowhill streets will be
selected for this purpose. Officers
will be on hand at all times to look
after the naturlization of Germans, and
lists of all tbe German voters in the
clty will bo prepared, so that the asso
ciation can communicate with them at
every faorable opportunity.
What Ifejt?
Tho republican party is certainly in
a dilemma and no one knows this
fact better than the republican party
itself. Chairman Quay, who is en
gineering its unpopular campaign, has
himself strongly intimiled that tbe re
publican leaders are indulging in too
much miudicious talking and ho has
otherwiso expressed himself in a man
ner that gives the impression that the
"grand old party" is engaged in its
last contest.
After nominating a presidental tick
et the rapidly decaying party of the
monopolists shouted that the fight
would bo between tho advocates
of tbe present tariff system and tbe
-l.- - - f - rr . . r mi -
uuaujjnuuti ui larm ruiorm. xuen a
republican senator made the discovery
that the northwestern states are
strongly opposed to tho present tariff
acd be communicated this fact to bis
brother senators. For the purpose of
overcoming this trouble the framing of
tariff bill was suggested and tho
question, to frame or not to frame, is
still pending.
Uf course, this blunder was a blow
to the high protection party, but when
the great and only Blaine, of whom
mighty things wero expected, made
bis speech in defense of trusts, Quay
was simply enraged, and bo has pri
vately denounced the "Uncrowned
King'1 in language strong and bitter.
lieaten on every side tho grind old
party took up the cry that President
Cleveland was in sympathy with Eng
land aud tho president a message on
the fisheries qnestion knocks tho silly
falsehood "as higl: as Gilderoy's kite."
And now the people would like to
know what will bo tho next move of
the grand old party of monopolists,
Chinamen and Hungarians. J'atriot.

trip recently taken by Mr. F. S. Mans

disastrous volcanic eruption of the
Moutain Bandaison, in the providence
of Iwashiro. The letter states that
the first disturbance was noticed on
July 15, and was followed by three
earthquake shocks ten minutes apart.
Then a loud explosion took place,
accompanied by another terrific tremb
ling. Tho air became filled with black
ashes and a suffocating solphoious
dust Many persons were killed in the
great panio that ensued, while others
died of suffocation. At 4 a'clock in
the afternoon the eruption which last
ed seven hours entirely ceased.
The number of lives lost was 518,
and only seventy bodies havo betrn re
covered. The imperial government
has established hospitals for tho care
of the wounded. In tho village eur
rounding the mountain a majority of
the houses were thrown down. The
rice crop has been ruined, and tbe
