(From Our Regular Correspo..uent,) WASHINGTON, Jan. 1st 1897. No President, not even Andy Johson, ever held a New Year tives than were at the White their absence, bot it is neverthe- jess certain that he did. Other- success. Mrs. Cleveland never looked better, tne cortege of lady elegant costumes, the diplomatic corps never madea more gor- navy and marine officers were out in forc2 im spick and span new uniforms with gold lace and brass buttons galore. The Cuban question is awaiting the reassembling of Congress, next week, although there are daily, almost hourly, reports of steps being taken either in Spain, or by Gen. Weyler,-or by Secre- tary Olney and the Spanish Min- ister which will result in placing it where there will be no occasion for Congress to act upon it. That most of these rumors are origi- nated by persous who are either friendly towards Spain or at least opposed to any action by the present Congress is generally be- heyed in Washington. The opin jon 1¢ growing that they will be successful, atleast tothe extent vf postponing action until after McKinley assumes office. In act, that purpose was practically accomplished when the Republi- can leaders of the House decided that nothing should be done. The Democratic Nations! Com- mittee makes no secret of using all the influence it can command towards bringing about the re- election of Senator Dubois, of Idaho, who is being opposed by Hanna and his crowd, because he followed his convictions and sup- ported the Democratic platform and ticket in the late campaign, pod because they think his defeat would result in frightening other act with the Reprblican party. Most Democrats who know the ing for Bryan endorse Senator nothing should be allowed to stand in the way of its settlement. It isa debt of honor, and, like the House committee on Ways aud Meang who is, carefully at- ‘tending the tanff hearings now in & _ {hand in * naking the tariff bill, is always, emphatic in speech and often diamatic. . Nobody was sur- prised, cherefore, when Mr. W. R. Craig, of Vicksbarg, Misg., as the representative of the cotton grow- ers of the Mississippi Valley, ap- peared before the Committee and asked- that a duty of 3 cents a pound be put on Egyptian cotton, to see the wiry old soldier stiffen 25!up and to hear him say: “The South would be selling its birth- right for a mess of pottage to ask tor this protection.” Representa- tive Payne thought to faze Gen- Weeeler . when he asked him, | oy | |¢What do you call ita birthright?” - We desire.a tive correspondent at Sond ia briet items of NEW6 as it Occurs 4a each neighborhood, Write plainly and only on one side of the paper. Without turning a hair the Ala~ bamaian replied: ‘Free tustitu- tions, free trade, free every thing.” Senator Call's term expires March 3, and the Florida legisla~ ture which will elect his successor dees not meet until April, so that if McKinley calls the extra ses- sion together in March, Florida =~ |.will for atime have only one |Senator.. According to a member of the Florida legislature, who is now in Washington, Senator Call will certainly be his own succes- sor, notwithstanding tne red hot fight which is being made against him. This gentleman says: “The ‘only way that Senator Call can be defeated for re-election is to cede the State back to Spain or abolish the office. I am a meme ber of the Farmers’ Alliance and asa great majority of the mem- bers of the legislature are Farm- ers’ Alliance men, and not law- yers, 1 know what I am talking about.” Ata public meetizg of the Me- Kinley and Hobart Club of this city ex-Commissioner Douglass said. that the club organization would be kept up for the purpose of supporting McKinley and Ho- bart in 1900. When a friend told Speaker Reed about that speech his only comment was “huh.” Mr. Reed knows that it isn’t the ticket of 1900, but the offices of 97 that the “ex” and the other members of the club are worried about. Ove thing has been made very clear by the first week of the tatiff hearings. That is, that the men who have asked for higher duties ou the ground that their business under the present tariff is un- profitable, must have had a big surplus to draw upon. None of them looked like men engaged ia unprofitable occupations. On the contrary, to a man they ap- peared well-dressed, well-fed and prosperous, abd if they haven't been making money the must have inherited money. * They cer- tainly didn’t look like mea who were “hard up.” srunsnapmsaginansonent ar Land’s Improving. “Did you know,’ said a well informed gentleman yasterday, “that the land in this country is getting richer and better?” “What’s the cause—ferterliz- ing ?” it, but the real cause is that farmers are letting their land.reat and keeping the cattle off of it, when it is recovering, jast like an ovyer-worked man; when he is kept on the run fora long time he is sure to give out and must rest, when, if his constitution is not gone, he will recover with a good long rest. Onv formers are finding out thas they cau do bet- ter with» lictle land well tilled than b, uouble the acreage half attended to, and the consequence ig thut t.vy are not only doing better furming, but their course is helping the iand.” No doubs there’is a lot of truth in this,tor it is being demonstrated avery year though it isa hard matter to make some men believe leagues quit i ey (us oo ree that | it.—Greensboro Record. \\ f “That has something to do with | ' That jadicious petting never yet made “‘calfy boys.” * Ye i, hat when children are ‘inclined ‘to be self—willed and cannot easily be persuaded to do a thing they are commanded to do. a loving word will often insure prompt obedience. “That very often teo little sym- pathy is given the little ones.in their hurts and disappointments, in our efforts to teach them self- control.
