WASHINGTON LETTER
ene
(Fiom Our Regular Correspondent)
WasHInGTon. Feb. 6th, 1897.
Nobody seems to have any idea that
the amended abitration treaty with
England, which has been favorably re-
ported to the Senate, will be acted upon
at this session. In fuct, its friends would
be efraid to torce a vote at. this: time
lest it should result in rejection of the
treaty.
One of the legacies of the Harrison
administration is a treaty that binds the
United States to pay $6, 000 a year
towards the support of a monarchy and
an almighty poor specimen of monarchy
at that. The treaty in question was
made with Germany and England and
the mcney goes to pay the expenses of
the remi-savage King of Samoa, A
year or so ago President Cleveland
recommended legislation looking toward
the cbrogation of this treaty, and each
year there has been a protest made
when the House reached the item of
the Diplomatic and Cousular appropri-
ation bill carrying that $6,000. T his
week when the item was reached Rep-
resentative McMillin mo ed that it be
struck out. because he did not think i:
right that our people should be contri-
buting money to the support cf a mou-
archy anywhere and under any cir-
cumstances, but his movion was voted
down, not because a majority of the
House favored the appropriation but}
because they considerd that as lorg as
the treaty is allowed to stand we are in
honor bound to pay our share of the
money.
Gen. Bradley T. Johnson, who was
recently mn Cuba, is now in Washington
and doing some very plain talking,
For instance, he said: oThe Cubéens
will surely succeed unless the policies
of the administration in aiding Spain
crushes hope out of the Cubans. Every
power, the army, the navyythe judiciary,
of this great government ig now in
active operation to aid Spain and crush
the rebellion. Every power will be
exerted during the next administration
to the same end. The money power
demands peace, quiet, rest ; but behind
it all is vhe irresistible, omnipotent, all-
prevailing force of manifest destiny
which controls history, directs the ages,
and is absolutely beyond and above the
the force ot one generation, and controls
them all. In this case, the will, the
hope, the enthusiasm of the American
people overwhelms Wall street and the
peace of the money-changers, and will
have free Cuba.�
Hn. Jon W. Kern, of Indiana, now
in Washington, says of the democracy
of his State: oThe democratic party ir
Ind ana is as full of lite and in as good
~condition as it has been during any time
within the last twenty years. Every
since the election has intensified
the belief of the yoters out our way,
who supported the Chicago ticket, that
they had the right side of the argument.
Tusteaa of higher/wages and full time,
~promised by. the. republicans, wage+
earners have experienced a decrease in
ec earnings since last November.
_ Even now theré are. thousands ot good

~The dismissal tor the " tise ot
a odin democrat.trom the .Treasury
department may result in a scandal.
The man dismissed is Mr. William E.
Ryan, an expert accountant, who was
a candidate for Congress in the Roches-
ter (N. Y.) district: last ; ~Noyembers}:
Mr. Ryan was first dismissed the day
after election. On Dec. 2nd he secured
a reappointment av a reduced salary |
under a civil. service certificate, He}:
recently served notice of his intention
to contest the election ih his: Congres-
sional district, on the groand thac the
use of the Myers, Ballot Machine was):
illegal, and this week. he was again dis-
missed. It is said he was given a hint}
by a person in authority. that.it. would
not be wise for him to make a contest?
and he tkinks he now. knows why.
It Senator Chandler can tell in the}'
speech heT has promised to thake on his
resolution declaring it to he the sense
ot the Senate that this country should},
not permanently accept the single gold
standard, but should strive to have gold
and silver put on the same terms by the
free coinage of both, any other reason
for the adoption of the resolution than |
the bamboozling of silver, republicans
into the belief that their party is going
todo something fer silver the silver
majority doubtless vote to adopt his
resvlution, altHough they and everybody
else know that it would be.meaningle:s
so far as accomplishments are concern-
ed. Everybody knows that the Senate
believes in tae free coinage of silver.

above. Now and then some large
fish, aT shark perhaps; passes by,
and all the small fry scatter, hiding
among the corals, and are seen no
more till their enemy is out of sight.
Besides the leaf coral there are
many others even more beautiful to
be seen. Some are in the shape ot
huge vases, some are like great
globes, others branch out as do the
horns of the stag, and there are
more delicate. branching kinds, call.
ed finger corals and great numbers
of sea fans. The sea fans form the
shrubbery of the sea garden. They
stand on the ocean bottom on a sort
of root, and, unliké the leaf and
branching corals, which~ are rigid
and motionless, they rise lightly in
the water and wave in the gentle
undercurrents as if stirred by the
wind. They are of many ~colors,
and, mingled as they are with a
kind of vegetable coral called coral-
iné and with the bright red, purple
or orange colored sponges of the
Florida coast, you may well realize
on looking at them how surpassing-
ly beautiful are the flower gardens
of the sea."Justin Le Rocho in Pop.
