WASHINGTON LETTER.

rman

(From our Regular Correspondent. )

Wasuinaton, D. 9., Dec. 10 -97.
Secretary Gage is about the only
member of the. administration who
would really like to see his recommen-
dations for cinching the hold of tbe
single gold standard on this country
become laws, Mr. McKinley did not
dare to endorse the recommendations
of his Seeretary of the Treasury, and
he has no real desize for the financial
legislation he Lalf-heartedly suggested.
He knows that his roundabout sug-|
gestion of get~ing rid ot the ereenbac! g
by turning them into gold certificates
could not get through Congress, even
if only the Republicans voted upon it
He was atraid that the recommenda"

tion for amendtng the National bank-
ing laws, so as to reduce taxation on

National bank currency, to allow czr_

rency to be issued to the face value of

the bonds deposited with the govern-

ment. and to allow the establishment of

National banks with $25,000 capital
in stall places, .night get through, so
he added a proviso that he kiew

would kill the whole"to make al]
National bank notes redeemable - in
geld. The administration
trying to bluff a portion of its own
party and the country, It doesnTt
want any financial legislation, This
has already been made plain in the
House by the grab game engineered by
Mr, Dingley by which his committee"
Ways and Means "wijl] take charge of
« all financial bills and smother them,
Republicans have also plainly indicated
by their talk that they h
intimations from the

is simply

ad received
administration
that no financial legislation was wanted
If public criticism ot its atutude mekes
it necessary to strengthen its bluff, the
administration will, through Mr,
Dingley, fix Up a bill and jam it
through the House, knowing that the
Senate would not act upon it, Ot
course, the people-of this country are
fools enough not to know the difierence
between this sort of thing and real
_ Statesmanship, and they will be so
sorry that the administration isnTt
uble to get what it doesnTt want"so

Sorry that they'll elect a Democratic}

Congress next year. :
The administration doesnTt wish the

Nicaragua Canal question to be acted
upon by this Congress, and when Mr.
McKinley eaid in his message that he
would have something furvher to say
on tke subject when he submitted the
report of the Commission which bas
just started for Nicaragua to make a
new survey and estimate of cost, under
az. act of Congress, he was fully aware
that the commission was not likely to
nace a report before the death of the
Fifty"fitth Congress. In fact, it is
known that members of the commis~
sion were given a broad hint before
their departure that their report was
not expected before March 4, 1899.
One Nebraska Republiaan"Mr.
Winfield S$. Strawn, an Omaha lawyer
"has turned up in Washinton who is

honest enough to publicly say that the.

Republicans have no chance to carry
that State, either at the Congressional
elections next year or the National
election of 1900. Mr. Strawn says
the Republiesns have net been able to
get back the tarmer votes they Icst cn
the silver question, and that they are
not likely to get them back so long as
the question is unsettled,

With the exception of Senators
Morgan, of Alabama, and Gorman, of
Maryland, every Democratic Senator
is now lired up ngainst the annexa-
tion of Hawaii, and ~the opposition
among the Republicans already in-
cludes Senators Hoar, Morrill and
Pettigrew. This makes it impossible
to procure the two thirds vote needed
to ratify the troaty providing for an-
hexation, and the Republicans are
already seriously thinking of abandon.
ing the treaty and trying to secure
aunexation by majority legislation, It
looks as though the anexation question
was going to be used by the Reed
machine.to whack McKinley over the
head, The Czar 1s understood to
have privately announced himself to be
opposed to annexation. In fact, pres-
ent indications are before this session
has grown very old the line between
McKinley Bepublicans will be sharply
drawn.

If Spain isnTt entirely pleased with
the s tuation at the Washington end
of the line she must be hard to please,
It was a new thing tora President of
the United States to devote nearly
half of his message to Congress to an
argument in favor of allowing a for-
eign nation more time in which to try

to squeeze the lite out of a people
residing in s'ght of our coast, and the

innovation was nausecus to many. A
dose equally nauseous followed, when
Secretary Gage presented several
columns cf colid newspaper matter,
giving in detail the extraordinary
efforts of this country to aid Spain by
suppressing filibustering. Senator Al
len offered a resolution in the Senate
tor the.recognition of Cuban indepen-
dence, but it is feared that the Com-
mittee on Foreign Relations, to which
it was referred will pigeon hole it.

The first skirmish in the war on the
civil service law was pulled off in the
House this week, and it was lively
while it las~ed. A conterence of all
the House who desire
change in this Iaw is to be held, in

members ot

order to arrange tor an organized at-
tack.

A Noble Life. "

It is indeed interesting and profit-
able to read and study the ~lives of
novle men and women, and paren.s
cannot spend money more wisely than
in supplying their children itod
bio zraphies of great and good men who
stand out prominently in the worldTs bis

ble Christians.
to note how those excellent traits of
characterT descend from sire to son
through many generations. Recently
we received from the royal Publishing
Company, Richmond, Va, a new
book entitled oRobert Edward Lee,
Soldier, Citizen and Christiati Patriot.�
One great advantage in connection with
this book is that it gives in a biief but
charming manner the history of the
Lee family for several hundred years,
showing that Richard Henry Lee,
Robert E. Lee and other master mindg
sprang from a noble family whos) his-
tory is as profitable as it is interesting.
Besides an excellent biography of Gen.
Lee and account of his great military
campaigns, it tells how he won the
hearts of his soldiers and will retain
through all ages the affection of friend.
and foes. The work also contains a
large number of interesting historical
documents giving the organization of
the various armies, together with briet
biographical sketches of such men as
Gen. Joseph E. Jonnston, Gen. Albert
Sidney Johnston, Gen. G. T. Beaure-
gard, Gen. Braxton Brage, Gen.
John B, Hood, Lieutenant General A.
P. Hill, Admirai Raphael Semmes,
Gen. John B. Gordon, Gen. James
Longstreet and Gen. J. H. Reagan.
This.is the only biegraphy ot Gen.
Lee ever published on this plan, and it
s having a very large sate. The
publishers advertise through our
columns for active agents, as it is sold
only by subscription. Those who dis-
tribute such a work as this will be ex-
erting a blessed influence on the rising

~generation besides reaping a rich and

profitable harvest financially.
