WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, December 29,1893. I
The use of money to defeat the Wilson
tariff bill is the dominant idea of those j
who have grown rich at the expense of |
the consumers of the country by reason J
of the so-called protection legislation of
Republicans. Returning Democratic j
congressmen from districts having pro
tected manufacturers nearly all agree in
saying that money is being freely spent j
by those manufacturers in order to work 1
up a bogus public sentiment in those dis
tricts against the Wilson hill, hoping |
thereby to influence the representatives
to vote against thy hill. Not only are
halls hired for meetings to be held to
protest against tbe biU,'„but individuals
are employed by tbe hundred to come to
Washington, and to get signatures and
names to petitions asking that the bill
be not passed, and space is bought in the
columns of impecunious newspapers
which claim to be independent which is j
filled with shrewdly written articles!
adapted to the locality and intended to
frighten the ignorant into the belief that
the passage of the Wilson bill will be a
local calamity of incalculable magnitude.
All of these things were expected.
The Democrats knew that the men who
bad grown rich by legislation would not
see that legislation upset without spend
ing a part of their easily-acquired wealth
to prevent it. But the money is wasted
as far as its influence upon Democratic
congressmen is concerned. It is easy to
find Democratic congressmen who would
like to change some schedule in the
bill and who propose to state their
reasons for desiring a change to the
Democratic caucus soon to be held and
ask that it be made, but the number of
Democrats who will refuse to vote for the
bill if the caucus does not agree with
them can be counted upon the fingers of
one hand with fingers to spare. They
generally recognize the fact that the
Wilson'bill is a party, not an individual
measure, and that as good Democrats it
is their duty to support the bill.
No party measure has ever been pass
ed by congress that did not receive the
votes of men whose personal inclinations
and inleroat9 were opposed thereto, and
none ever will be. When a man cannot
bring himself to vote for a party measure,
particularly when it represents tariff
reform which has been the keystone of
the Democratic arch for so many years,
it is high time that he should cease to
call himself a party man or to expect to
receive honors from the party he de
clines to support.
Representatives McMillin, of Ten
nessee, and Bryan of Nebraska, who
were appointed a sub-committee by
Chairman Wilson to report to the Demo
crats of the wavs and means committee j
of the house the features of the internal j
revenue bill that is to make up the deficit j
that will be made in the revenues of the
government by the Wilson bill, have
decided upon their report report. It I
will recommend that a tax of 2 per cent,
be imposed upon all incomes of $4,000
and over; that a tax be imposed on in
heritances of personal property, the rate
to be fixed later; that the tax on cigaret
tes be increased to $1.50 per 1,000, and
that a tax of 5 cents a pack be levied on
playing cards. They estimate that a bill
on these lines will bring in about
$45,000,000.
To hayo heard some of the men who
think themselves entitled to advance
knowledge of all the President's move
ments talk this week a foreigner would
have supposed that President Cleveland
committed a great crime when he went
down the river in company with Secre
taries Gresbam and Carlisle for several
days recreation without telling his would
be guardians beforehand. The antics of
these smart alecks would be amusing if
they were not so absurd.
A sub-committee of the senate com
mittee on foreign relations, composed of
Senators Morgan, Butler, Gray, Sher
man and Frye, this week began the
Hawaiian investigation authorized by
Senator Morgan's resolution. They
heard several witnesses friendly to the
provisional government and adjourned
until next Tuesday, when other witnes
ses will be here. Nothing will he made
public until the work is finished and the
report of the committee made. 8.
GRAYCOAT'S CATNIP TEA.
Nino Cut# Have a Grand Time In Mrs.
Long's Kitchen.
After reading 1 the story of old Gray
coat no person will doubt that cats
have a means of expressing themselves
which is just as good as human words;
because this cat, Graycoat, made eight
different cats understand the same
thing. She must have gone to each
and in some way said the same thing
to the whole eight, and each cat did
what Graycoat asked her to do.
Hero are the facts: Little Lucy
Long's grandmother sent her a present
of a great green bunch of catnip, with
a message to dry it, so that her cat,
Graycoat, might have a leaf now and
then during the winter. Lucy hung
the bunch up on the wall behind
the kitchen stove to dry, and when
ever she went into the kitchen she
gave the cat a leaf or two for a
treat. Sometimes the cat would jump
up high and try hard to catch the
bunch herself.
One day as Lucy and her mother sat
sewing on the front porch they both
Tllli NINE CATS WERE BEOALINQ THEM
SELVES.
heard an unusual sound, and Lucy
said: "What Is that?" and Mrs. Long
said: "It sounds to me like cat-talk,
and as though It were out in the
kitchen."
Lucy went out to the kitchen, where
she saw a strange sight, and she called
her mother to come.
Nine cats, counting- in Graycoat,
were there and all very gay and happy.
Most of them were perfect strangers.
The hunch of catnip lay on the floor,
torn into shreds, and on this spicy feast
the nine cats were regaling themselves;
they appeared giddy, as if they had
been drinking wine, singing and pur
ring and miuwing and signaling, and
rolling over and over on the catnip,
and scratching and pulling It about all
over the room.
"Shall 1 scat them out, mamma?"
asked Lucy.
"No, indeed," said Mrs. Long. "That
would be very rude of us. Graycoat
is giving a tea, evidently a catnip
tea," anil she laughed and softly shut
I the door.
Half an hour after they went back
for another peep, but all were gone.—

AN IMPORTED FARM.
How Dr. iluyt'B XVhh Surprised at a Green
land Seaport.
Dr. Isaac I. Ilayeß, the explorer, had
been traveling over Arctic ice and
through Arctic storms for more than a
year, when he was entertained most
charmingly by one of the cultured
European residents at a Greenland sea
port. The two friends had partaken of
an inviting Greenland lunch, when the
host remarked:
"You have probably tasted nothing
that grew out of dear old Mother Earth
since leaving home. Wouldn't you like
something fresh and green?"
At his summons, Sophy, his Green
land housekeeper, appeared, bringing
a silver dish with a little pyramid of
green upon it. Out from the green
peeped little round, red globes.
"What! Radishes in Greenland!" ex
claimed Dr. Hayes.
"Yes; and raised on my own farm,
too," was the reply.
After lunch the visitor saw "the
farm." It was a patch of earth about
thirty feet long by four feet wide, in
closed with hoards and covered with
glass. Under the glass were growing
lettuce, radishes and peppcrgrass, look
ing very fresh and green.
"You see," said the "farmer," "some
things can take root in this country;
though, to be sure, they are fed on pap
from home."
"I)o you mean to say that you bring
the earth they grow in from home?"
inquired Dr. Ilayes.
"Kvcn so. This is good rich Jutland
earth, brought in barrels by ship from
Copenhagen."
Truly a novelty—an Imported farml
In an opposite corner stood the barn,
a little, tightly-made building, with a
largo stove fixed in the center to keep
the animals from freezing in the long
winters. Within were twenty chiok
ens, two pigs and three goats.
"All brought from Copenhagen with
the farm," said their proud owner.
A I'osnlhlo Iteason.
"I guess I know why cannibals is
brown," said Johnny.
"Why?"
"Because they don't wear clothes,
an' nature wants 'em to look as if they
hod Bumpin' on anyhow."—Judge.

PICKED UP BY THE WAY.
THINGS SEEN AND HEARD IN THE
TOWN AND VICINITY.
Matter# of a Local Nature Written I'p
and Placed Before I lie Header* of I lie
"Tribune" by the Saunterer—Something
Here May Intercut You.
The number of murders that
' occurred during 1893 through
race riots of the foreigners resi
ding in the vicinity of Hazleton
would make a list that lower
Luzerne might well feel asham
ed of, if all were gathered to
gether. As it is so difficult to
capture the guilty persons and a
gieat deal harder to have them
convicted, one is not surprised
at the frequent murders, but it
is absolutely necessary that an
example should he made of a
few of these cold-blooded assas
sins this year. r l lie lower end's
reputation has suffered enough
through these terrorizers, and
any delays in enforcing the law
with the next man convicted
should receive general condem
nation. If the more intelligent
of the foreigners would lend
their assistance and help in hav
ing justice dealt out, they would
clear their race from the sus
picion of blood and murder
which all of them are being
regarded with.
Freeland people, especially,
are deeply concerned in having
these criminals atone for their
crimes, because, of our prom
ixity to the scenes of the deeds,
persons elsewhere will naturally
conclude that this town has its
full quota of murderers and des
peradoes as well as the other
towns of the lower end. This,
however, is not the case. We
have, without a doubt, as many
foreigners in proportion to popu
lation as other communities, but
we have not the same clas or if
they are of the same class they
control their bloodthirsty de
sires when here.
While in Ilazleton or its sur
rounding hamlets a murder is a
common affair, here it would
create the most intense excite
ment and indignation, and any
thing more than an ordinary
"scrap" among such people is
promptly quelled. However,
since Freeland is unfortunately
situated so near a city and
i towns which have no desire to
suppress lawlessness, our peo
ple should endeavor to rid the
the lower end of murders and
heinous crimes, or in time this
part will be contaminated and
disgraced by similar outbreaks
of race passion and prejudice.
Something new in the saloon
business in Freeland is the giv
ing out of small checks with
every drink purchased at the
bar. These checks are number
ed, and a stub, which is dropped
into a sealed box, is numbered
also, and when a stated amount
of tickets have been issued a
drawing takes place. The third
stub drawn from the box de
notes that the holder of the
check with a corresponding
number wins a line gold watch.
As a chance on the watch costs
nothing, one being given with
every drink bought, the scheme
ought to take well with the
saloon patrons, but unless the
bartenders can draw additional
trade by holding out the watch
as an inducement, it is hard to
see where their profit conies in.
Tomorrow evening a meeting
of the Freeland council will be
held and in all probabilities a
date will be selected for the
holding of a special election to
vote upon the light question.
In conversation with several citi
zens last week I find the general
opinion to be in favor of having
this election on the regular
spring election day, which is,
1 believe, February 20. A larger
vote would be polled then than
if it is held before that date,
and a better expression of pub
lic sentiment would be obtained.
Every opportunity should be
given to have the matter present
ed to the people so that all may
understand it thoroughly, and
as the electric light company is
satisfied to have the election
then, there could be but little
objections to delaying the vote
a week or two longer than is
necessary, thereby giving all
sufficient time to decide intelli
gently before casting their bal
lots.
The number of students home
during the holidays from the
the various schools and colleges
indicate that the people of Free
land and vicinity are certainly
aware of the advantages of a
higher education for their child
ren. There is no part of the
state where pupils are more
anxious to go to a normal school
or some seminary after they
have mastered the common
I branches, and it is most gratify
ing to know and see that the
opportunity is given them by
every parent who can possibly
do so. In fact, the sacrifices
made by some of the families
here to educate their children is
worthy of the highest commen
dation, and 1 hope that when
the time conies to repay their
] good old fathers and mothers
| the educated ones will not for
get the struggle that is now
being endured to raise the boys
and girls of the present from
the lower walks of life.
Very likely the annual re
newal of pledges and promises
will be made by many people
today, and "reform'' will be
the uppermost thought in sev
eral minds for a week or two
No doubt many a man can look
back to some New Year's Day
|in the far past and offer up
thanks for the spirit which in
duced him to "swear off" some
vice or habit that he knew was
leading him downward. Yet
the silent promise or the awful
oath that men bind themselves
with at the opening of each
year do not play so large a part
as expected in their future. If
one's intentions are not sincere,
j honest and determined it mat
ters not how iron-clad his obli
gations may be, he will drift
back to his old ways before
next New Year's Dav.
"Swearing off" on anything
is only so much time and
words wasted unless the will
1 power of the self reformer is
j brought into immediate and
I constant action, for the novelty
of the thing soon wears away
and if there is a craving to drop
again pledges, promises and
oaths amount to little when sin
cerity, determination and hon
esty of intentions are lacking,
ilf you feel that you must
| "swear off" on something, sum
j mon to your assistance all the
j will-power you possess, then
j when the attack is made you
need not surrender, but can
j come out of the battle triumph-
I ant and be a man in all that the
word implies. SAHNTEREB.
