From our Regular Correspondent.
Washington, October 22, 1894.
There is a perceptible decrease in
the bustle at the headquarters of the
Democratic Congressional Camoaicn
committee. The campaign has passed
the three-quarter post, and is now on
the home stretch. The work of the
committee reached high-water mark
about two weeks ago, and for a time
more than a million documents a day
were handled. Since then the u.v-lr
has been gradually decreasing, all the
documents desired having been sent
out, except in near by districts, where
documents continue to be sent in
small quantities. On the whole mem
bers of the committee are fairly satis
fied With the WOrk of the rsmniiim
although the lack of money prevented
their carrying out the entire program
as it was originally arranged. Chair
man Faulkner has just completed a
revised estimate, based unon the
latest information from the Congress
ional districts. He doesn't care to
make this estimate public, further
than to say that it gives the Demo
crats a majority of 20 in the next
House, at this time, although he takes
pleasure iu showing it to Democrats
who call on him and explaining to
them the foundation for each estimate.
To make public might result in the

confident opponents on their guard.
a 1.1 . . -
a mtie paragraph in the book of
appropriations made by the last Con
gress speaks volumes in favor of the
Democratic party. It is that which
shows that the Democratic Congress
abolished 923 offices, the annual cost
of which had been $1, 235,002. That
is a bit of practical economv that
every voter ought to be able to ap
preciate. Whatever else may be said for or
against Senator Gorman, noasnersions
can with truth be cast upon his loyal
ty to the Democratic party at all
times and under all circumstances.
Therefore no surprise was felt in
Washington when the anouncement
was made that Senator Gorman wnnlrt
go to New York to help elect Senator
xiui, aunougn ine personal relations
between the two men have been de
cidedly unpleasant for some time. In
thus laying aside his personal feeling
against the head of the ticket and
working lor the success of the party,
Senator Gorman has set an examnle
that might with profit to the party be
followed by every Democrat who is
lukewatm in the sunnort of the tinker
because it happens to contain the
name of some man whom he person
ally dislikes, or with whom he is on
unpleasant terms. Ever since the
camnaien of iR8a. when na rliairmnn
1 0 r j - - - -
of the National Democratic committee
he carried New York for Mr. Cleve
land and defeated Blaine, Senator
Gorman has had great influence in
New York, and therev is little doubt
that his aid will be of great benefit,
particularly in New York city, where
party harmony is so essential at this
time.
Army officers are pleased that
Secretary Lamont has made up his
mind that they can serve the country
better by slicking to the military
duties for which they were educated
than by being detailed to act as In
dian agents, although some other
people are not, It is not expected
that there will be any sudden or gen
eral change, but that civilians will be
gradually appointed , Indian aggnts in

The Chinese minister to this country
talks as cheerfully of the war in which
his country has un to now been licked
as a candidate with a " cinch " docs
of election day. He remarked com
placently to a member of the diplo
matic corps, a dav or two aero : De-
spite an that Japan has done, despite
an the Chinamen killed, we still have
an empire of immense size and about
450,000,000 people eft. We have re-
sources cf which the world knows
nothing. China has not yet raised her
nanci. w nen she does she will let
it fall upon Japan and crush her as
earily as an elephant would crush a I
rat. 10 other people it looks as
though China were playing the part of J
the rat.
Secretary Carlisle will certainly
make a speech at Louisville before
the close of the campaign, and it is
probable that he will also make one
at Indianapolis and another at New
loric.
The latest reports from Chairman
Wilson's district, brought bv those
who have carefully gone over the
ground, is that he will not only be re
elected, but that his maioritv will
exceed that civen him in 'm. His
presence seems to have aroused the
enthusiasm of his constituents to an
unusual degree.
Postmaster General Bissell returned
from his vacation this week and
settled down for another long period
of work, which he alwavs does with a
rush that is wonderful for a man of
his size and build.

Tariff Eeductions Exemplified.
In the Philadelphia Record, which
was issued on Friday, October 19th,
may be found the best illustrated ex-
position of the high-tariff delusion
that has vet come out since the nas.
sage of the new tariff bill. It is head-
ea witn tne following remark from
t : j . .-. .
i resiocni Cleveland :
" The simple and plain duty which
We Owe tn the nennle ia tn rr1i-
taxation to the hecessary expenses of

em ment."
Then follows illustrations of articles
of clothing, &c, with the tariff reduc
tion marked on them so that the most
illiterate may take it in at a glance.
Among the more important reduc
tions in favor of the consumer is
that plainly pictured on clothing,
boots, shoes, cutlery, stoves, coal,
dishes, bonnets, stockings, thread,
bedding, soap. salt. Dines, lumber.
grain bags, cotton ties, copper, wool,
agricultural implements &c.
It is estimated that the amount
saved consumers annually on the
woolen schedule alone inder the
Democratic tariff bill is $163,534,000
