WASHINGTON LETTER.
/
(From Our Regular Correspo..uent )
WaAsHINGTON, Jan, 8th, 1897.
Andrew Jackson Day could not
have been. more enthusiastically
* observed at the annual banquet of
the Jackson Democratic Associa-
tion of Washivgton had the de
feat of last November been a vic-
tory. In addition to the large
~nomber of prominent Democratic
guests of the associat.on an inno-
vation was introduced this year
by inviting a woman"Mrs. Mary
Donaldson Wilcox, daughter of
A. J. Donaldson, who was private
secretary to President Jackson.
This lady enjoys the distinction of
having been the first child born in
the White House, and resides in
Wasbington.
Presto! Change! Great is the
powsr of public pap. The Re-
publican Senators who were ex-|_
pressing their willingness to have
American blood"not their own,
of course "-shed, if necessary, to
free Cuba from the tyvauvy of
Spain, wien Congress adjourned
for the Christmas recess, came
back to their seats this week as
meek as sucking lambs. They
have bea. d from McKinley, aod
as far as they are concerned suf -|
fering Caba can kgep on suffering.
Senator Call, of Florida, not
havivg the fear ot McKinleyTs
anger to kvep him mom, made a
speech on his resolution, which
was adopted, calling for the offi -
cial correspondence in the case
of Julio Sangailly, a newspaper
correspoodent and citizen of the
United States, who Las been sen-
tenced to prisva for life by the
Spanish auihorities, so which he
did sowe very plain talkiag about
the attitude of this government
towards Cuba, and the delay of
the Senate in acting upon the
Cameron resolution. "s.,
The House passed the Loud
bill depriving books and sample
copies of newspapers of the priy -
ilege of second class matl, and
is now wrestling with the Pacific
Railroad funding bill, which the
Huntington lobby is moving
heaven and earth to get passed,
as their last chance to prevent
~the foreclosing of Uucle Sam's
mortgage on the Union Pacific
Fhailroad.
1 ». Senator Allison, who was chair:
man of the United States delega-
tion to the international monetary
conference of 1892, said soon after
his return: ~The sending of an-
other American Commission in
~penalf of silver to the old world

pow confident that the Senate in
the next Congress will contain a
~majority of sliver men, ootwith -
standing the extraordinory efforts
of Mark Hanna to get a gold
majority by the lavish use of
money and of promises of patron-
age under the McKinley aaminis-
tratior. 4
Secretary, HerbertTs investiga-
tion of the coat of manufacturing
steel armor plates, made by the
direction of Congress to which
his report was this week sent,
doesnTt show fthe Carnegie and
Bethlehem Steel companies in a
very complimentary light. They
both refased to givethe Secretary
information until after they found
that he had obiained it from
European makers of armor ; then,
acccrding to Secretary Herbert's
report, they gave him misleading
information. The report says the
two establishments have made~a
combination to force the govern:
ment to pay fancy prices for
armor, and shows they can furnish
armor for one-third less than the
government is now paying them
and then make in the neighbor-
hood of $150 on each ton, Secre-
tary HerbertTs report is being
commended on all sides for its
thoroughness and fearlessness.
What -ffect it will have upon
Congress will be seen when the
Naval appropriation bill is taken
up.
It is perhaps fortunate that this
week is the last of the tariff
hearings. Last week, those who
appeared before the Wuys and
Means Committee only asked that
the new tariff restore the McKin-
ley duties, but this week a number
ofthem had the cheekT to ask
Senator Jones, of Arkaubak, aad
ohe Names Will Go Hereafter.
The Greensboro Record says:
oFew people, know the trials of a
St
newspaper man, fot that he 1s worked
to death. or i starving, but he is often
placed in the most awkward positions.
oFor instance, the other day the
Record asked a friend to send in a re-
port of a german given the might pre-
vious. hhe did so, and. it was in the
office, ready for the hands ot the printer,
when a request came in from the moth-
er of one of the young ladies, followed
soon by others of a like nature, asking
that if the german had been written up
in detail, to please omit her daughter's
name.
oNow here was a mess to be sure,
but what could the poor boy do? Simply
omit the names and then have the
writer come nown filled with ire a foot
deep and ask what in the thundér we
meant by asking him to write an ac"
count of the dance and then cut out all
the most important part, for, after leav-
ing off the names requested, the report
would have been very short so far as
names were concerned.
oBut why did the mamas desire their
daughtersT names omitted? Well, that
is a matter of surmise, out in one case
the true reason was that the mama
donTt want to see it, stay away from | Good Ordinary

that the McKinley rate be raised.
After all,itisa grab game, and
it 1s human to grab as much as

Senator Gibson, of Maryland,
is indignant over the statement
made by the Baltimore Sun that
he had predicted the defeat of
Sepator Gorman and the contizued
ascendency of the republicans ip
Maryland. After characterizing
the publication as. false aud mah-
cious, Senator Gibson said: oIn
stead of believing that the Re-
publican party is in control of
Maryland foran indefinite time,
I believe believe that it will not
be long before the Democratic
party, which gave the State a
splendid administration, is recal-
led to power. Maryland has simp-
ly suffered from the wave that
has overspread the country, and
there will come a time when the
wave will recede. The bolters
from the Democratic party in the
State bear about the same rela-
tion to the entire rank and file
that the 120,000 Palmer DUemo-
crats bear to the 6,500,000 who
voted for Bryan.�
