MRS. CLEVELAND’S ROOMS.
Rich Apartments Ready for Her at
the Arlington Hotel.
A representative of the Washing
ton Post seen the quarters Mrs.
Cleveland will occupy at the Arling
ton Hotel, pending her triumphal
return to the White House.
To be sure, incidentally, President
Cleveland and Baby Huth and Miss
Bose Elizabeth Cleveland will share
the same quarters, but they are all
merely more or less essential ad
juncts to be taken for granted in
considering the abiding place of Mrs.
Cleveland.
The Arlington has repeatedly
quartered a President-elect, awaiting
inauguration, but the part in which
the Cleveland party will be domi
ciled has been erected since the last
inauguration, and heretofore has
known no glory greater than shel
tering the illustrious head of Patti
and the suggestion of a crown which
the Comte de Paris carries with him.
The particular rooms which al
ready go glibly as the “Cleveland
rooms” are on the second floor, and
include a parlor, dining-room and
three bed-rooms, for the special use
of Mr. Cleveland’s family; also a
parlor and three bed-rooms for Col.
Lamont and a parlor and three bed
rooms for Mr. Dickinson.
Entering a hall where an exquisite
Venetian lamp burns softly in lieu of
sunshine, which is shut out, to the
right opens Mrs. Cleveland’s spacious
parlor. Here five windows afford a
flood of light, subdued by draperies
of delicately wrought lace and lus
trous silk.
The walls are almost covered with
rare pictures, and on the floor the
foot falls silently upon the thick pile
of rugs, whose warm, blent tints are
broken here and there with the
sharply defined colors of tiger skins.
Luxurious chairs, divans inviting in
dolence, French frivolities of ta
pestried seats on absurd gold legs,
with ridiculous gold backs, an inland
cabinet of wonderful workmanship,
bronzes, famous pottery and china,
beautiful and frail, combine in the
furnishings of the room to make a
background for Mrs. Cleveland,
which none of her loyal subjects
would have one whit less royal.
Leading from the drawing-room is
Mrs. Cleveland’s bed-room. A mas
sive covered mahogany bedstead is
conspicuous until one stands before
a magnificent pier glass and realizes
that here the coming President’s
wife will stand, and with a delicious
sense of satisfaction survey the
sweep of a gown that would be a
coronation so be if queens were
crowned in the United States. In
the adjoining bed - room a small
white and gold bedstead describes
the domain of another monarch that
completes the trinity of the coming
administration. Beyond this is Miss
Cleveland’s room,
Opening to the loft from the hall is
the dining-room, which is furnished
in oak with a glittering array of
china and cut-glass. It is interesting
to know that Mrs. Cleveland will use
a knife, fork and spoon which were
once the property of the Empress
Eugenia, and that the President-elect
will drink his coffee from a cup that
one time belonged to Napoleon
Bonaparte.
Col. Lamont’s parlor communi
cates with the dining-room, with Mr.
Dickinsons directly opposite. The
entire suite is so placed that it can
be wholly separated from the re
mainder of the hotel. This will be
done by means of a screen placed
across the corridor, at the opening of
which Mr. Cleveland's butler, Sin
clair, will be stationed. Mr. Cleve
land will be accompanied by four
servants, in addition to Baby Ruth’s
nurse. Two servants of the hotel, a
butler and waiter, will also be as
signed to his exclusive use. A chief,
with two assistants, will be entirely
at his service, and anything he wants
to eat, from nightingale’s tongue on
toast to strawberries on gold dollars,
■will be his at the word of command.
In going to and from the street,
the President and his party will be
obliged to pass through the recep
tion-room and hall, which are the
common property of the permanent
guests of the hotel. A body of
Pinkerton detectives, however, will
guard him from any possible annoy
ance as he passes from the elevator
to the street, and at the outer door a
cordon of police will be stationed to
protect him.
The Presidential board bill will be
$475 per day, this not including the
charge for the extra service which
he has. The demand for accommo
dations in the President’s hotel is so
great that Mr. Roessle, the pro
prietor, says he is daily obliged to
refuse applications for rooms from
persons who offer anywhere from
SSO a day to whatever sum he is
pleased to fix for anything he may
to give them.

The Sale of Bonds.
National Watchman.
Never since the firing on Fort
Sumter have the people in all sec
tions of the country, North, South,
East and West, manifested so much
general concern as they have over
the proposed sale of bonds. They
have awakened from a dream of
fancied security to a realizing sense
that all their toil, all their economy,
and all the hard lines they have en
dured have counted for naught, and
the hopes of the future have been
crushed in pieces through the treach
ery and corruption that has domi
nated the legislation and adminis
tration of the law r s during the past
thirty years. The national debt in
18GG, consisting of interest and non
interest bearing obligations, as the
Treasury designates them, was $2,-
783,000,000. We have paid on the
principal about $1,800,000,000, about
$2,600,000,000 as interest, and SGO,-
000,000 as premiums on bonds
bought, or a grand total of about
$5,000,000,000, or nearly twice the
amount of the original debt, and are
now threatened with an additional
issue of bonds. These bonds are to
be issued not for the purpose of
liquidating an obligation, but for the
purpose of buying gold to hoard in
the Treasury. Such a proposition is
neither honest nor lawful, and should
meet with the severest condemna
tion from every one. These bonds
are to be sold for gold to maintain,
as it is alleged, gold payments, while
there is not a bond or any other
form of indebtedness that is not
payable in coin, which means either
gold or silver.
Hon. Edwards Pierrepont, At
torney-General of the United States,
and Minister to England, in a letter
to the New York Times of April
18, 1884, says :
There is not an outstanding bond,
coupon or greenback issued by the
United States which may not be law
fully paid in silver. Not one of them on
its face or back, or in the statute au
thorizing the issue, or in declaration, or
in resolution of Congress, has any pro
viso that they shall be paid in gold.
And the act of February 28, 1878, di
recting the coinage of silver dollars,
declared that such dollars shall be a
legal tender at their nominal value for
all debts and dues, public and private,
except where otherwise expressly stipu
lated in the contract.
The most conclusive evidence of
all is the following resolution. This
completely explodes the idea of a
single standard of gold in payment
for bonds.
The following resolution passed
the United States Senate January
25, 1878, and the House of Repre
sentatives January 28, 1878, by a
vote of 42 to 20 in the Senate and
189 to 79 in the House:
That all the bonds of the United States
issued or authorized to be issued under
the said acts of Congress hereinbefore
recited are payable, principal and in
terest, at the option of the Government
of the United States, in silver dollars of
the coinage of the Unithed States, con
taining 4124 graines each of standard
silver; and that to restore to its coinage
such silver coins as a legal tender in
payment of said bonds, principal and
interest, is not in violation of the public
faith nor in derogation of the rights of
the public creditor.
The following is the contract on
every bond of the United States out
standing at the present time except
ing the rate of interest on those ex
tended at 2 per cent:
This bond is issued in accordance with
the provisions of an act of Congress en
titled “An act to authorize the refund
ing of the national debt, approved July
tho 14th, 1870 amended by an act
approved January the 20th, 1871, and
is redeemable at the pleasure of the
United States, after the first day of
July, A. D., 1907, in coin of the stan
dard value of the United States on said
July the 14th, 1870, with interest in such
coin from the day of the date hereof at
the rate of 4 per centum per annum,
payable quarterly on the first day of
October, January, April and July in
each year. The principal and interest
are exempt from they payment of all
taxes or duties of the United States as
well as from taxation in any form by or
under State, municipal or local au
thority.
Mark the language, “in coin of the
standard value on said July 14,
1870.” What was that value ? Just
the same as now—4l2 1-2 grains of
silver or 25 8-10 grains of gold—
nine parts fine. That is the contract
to-day. The United States notes or
greenbacks are also redeemable in
coin as plainly stated in section 3 of
the resumption act of 1875. That
act directly provides that the Secre
tary of the Treasury shall redeem in
coiu the “legal tender notes then out
standing,” and the law cannot be
warped to include the notes issued
under the silver purchase act of
1890. With these cold facts stand
ing squarely before us may we not
ask why this purchase of gold ? The
answer comes at once it is not to
maintain gold payments at home, but
to continue gold payments abroad.
This crime against the people is per
petuated for the benefit of the alien
and for no other reason. The facts
are that our own nation has for years
refused to furnish its people with a
sufficient volume of currency and
they have been compelled in conse
quence to go abroad for it. As a
result vast sums of alien money has
been invested in this country, either
as loans or in business ventures.
Very little of the Government’s in
debtedness is held abroad. Proba
bly not one per cent of the amount.
Because money was dearer here than
in Europe the alien placed his funds
here in order to receive the in
creased earnings. Now nearly all
the nations of the old world are pre
paring for war and in so doing are
hoarding gold. Within a short time
Austria has taken $32,000,000 and
France 825,000,000 of American
gold and are still calling for more.
Some will ask how it is done? The
answer is simple enough. The alien
investor calls for his rent or his divi
dends, or perhaps the principal, and
loans it to France, Austria or any
other government that will pay for
it more than he is getting here. The
agent of the alien investor here con
verts the interest, dividends or prin
cipal he is paid into greenbacks,
presents them to the United States
sub-treasury and obtains their face
value in gold and sends the gold to
an alien investor for whom he is act
ing. There is without doubt $6,-
000,000,000 of alien capital invested
in this country, all of which under
this ruling of the treasury is payable
in gold. The idea of burdening our
people with debt in order to buy
gold to pay the alien this vast
amount is monstrous. If they want
metal money pay them in silver.
There are over 10,000 tons of it in
the United States Treasury ready
for that use. Let it be done at once.
Australia’s Rabbit Plague.
In 1862 an English resident of
Victoria imported several pairs of
common rabbits from his own coun
try and set to work breeding them
in the interests of Australian sports
manship. His friends and acquain
tances applauded his public spirit,
and the people of the colony regard
ed him as a public benefactor. As
his stock of the rabbits increased, re- ■
quests for a pair or two came to him
from all parts of the country. In a
short time several dozens of Aus
tralian sportsmen were enlisted in
the good cause of replenishing in
this manner Australia’s failing sup
ply of game. They met with such
pre-eminent success that within
twelve years rabbits had become so
numerous as to be universally re
garded as a public nuisance. The
custom grew up among the farmers
and sheep owners of organizing rab
bit drives, and a common result was
the killing of from 5,000 to 10,000
of the pestiferous animals in a single
day. The rabbits, nevertheless, went
on increasing at a prodigious rate.
So destructive to the pasturage
and vegetation generally had ‘they
become in 1880, and so universal was
the complaint against them that the
Australian Government passed “an
act to provide for the suppression of
rabbits,” appointing bailiffs whose
duty it was to destroy them on crown
lands, and to see that all walls, brush
piles and whatever of like toajuie
might afford them harborage were
removed. They were also empow
ered to do likewise with all other
lands at the cost of the occupants,
provided the occupants failed to do
so. The killing of certain carnivor
ous wild animals, hitherto considered
an unquestioned evil, was likewise
made illegal on the ground that they
assisted in the extermination of the
pest. But the measures proved ut
terly futile. A large unoccupied
tract of country, supposed to be their
main breeding ground, was fenced
off in 1888 by a woven wire fence
three and a half feet high. The bot
tom of this fence was buried to a
depth of six inches so as to prevent
burrowing under it- To stop jump
ing out a barbed wire was stretched
six inches above the top of the fence.
It required 197 miles of this fencing,
and two years later it was extended
150 miles further to cut off ingress
from another direction. That this
expedient brought little relief ap
pears in the fact that in 1887 the
government of New South Wales
offered a reward of SIOO,OOO to any
person who would devise or suggest
a method or expedient for ridding
the country of rabbits. A commis
sion of twelve from the several Aus
tralian colonies was appointed to
pass upon the 1,400 plans submitted
and rejected every one of them.
Mr. Austin’s weakness for English
rabbit hunting has cost Australia
enormoustly in public money expend
ed in fighting the pest, not to speak
of the enormous losses suffered by
individuals from its devastations. An
official report on the subject places
the amount of public money thus ex
pended by Victoria, New South
Wales and South Australia down to
December, 1890, at nearly $20,000,-
000. Private expenditures in the
same direction must also have been
considerable. One gentleman so
used $40,000 on his own plantation
within six months in destroying 350,-
000 rabbits. It is a fair assumption
that the residents of Australia, in
cluding Mr. Austin, if he is alive to
witness the outcome of his game
breeding enterprise, regret that they
did not content themselves with hunt
ing kangaroos.
What His Name Is.
Hoke Smith’s real name is Michael
Hoke Smith. He is named after
his grandfather, Michael Hoke, who
was the Democratic candidate for
governor of North Carolina in 1844.
Grandpa Hoke, being taken ill before
his canvas was completed, did not
succeed in reaching the gubernatorial
chair, but he was quite a politician,
and is still remembered in his native j
State. Secretary-that-is-to-be Smith
dropped the “Michael,” as Grover
Cleveland left off the original
“Stephen,” and Whitelaw Reid part
ed company with the “Jacob” that
was conferred upon him iu baptism.
