It is s'ated that W. W. Dudley and As
sistant Postmaster General Clarkson have
agreed that President Harrison must not be
renominated in 1892, and that they are try
ing to work up an Alger boom. If Gen.
Alger is nomina el it is pretty safa to say
that Dudley will have plenty of money
with which to practice his “blocks-of-flve”
methods.
Ex-Se;ator Sewell, of New Jersey, is a
man of vigorous opinions, according to the
Philalelphia Inquirer. The “vigorous
opinions” which he has recently expressed
are that President Harris in is carryi ig out
the civil service rules, and that Mr. Cleve
land cannot secure a renomioation. These
opinion-; may be vigorous, but they are far
from correct.
Mrs. Anastasia Parsed of Bayonne, N. J.,
died a few days ago. She was quite an old
Lady, so old, in fact, that she remembered
having seen George Washington. Not only
that, but she remembered that Washington
kissed her. Her memory must have been
remarkable, for she said herself that she
was a baby when the oscillatory perform
ance took place.
Notwithstanding Pension Commissioner
Kauin is obeying instructions to keep mum,
he is brii.ging upon himself unfavorable
comment. It is charged that he practices
favoritism and nepotism. If he doss, he
only follows the example of President Har
rison. The Harrison administration, it
seems, will go down in history os the most
nepotic this country has ever known.
Charles H j ward, of He lry county, Ala
batua. seerm to have started out to marry a
new wife every month. In the last four
months he has made four matrimonial vent
ures. and probablv he would have kept up
the record if he had not b >e-i arrested for
bigamy. A man with such strong matri
monial inclinations should be made ac
quainted with the inside of a penitentiary.
There are some eloquent orators among
the young men of U lorgia, and three of the
most eloquent spike in Savannah Monday
night. When Messrs. dußignon, Graves
and Richardson had finished speaking, a
northern gen leman asked a native Geor
gian “Where did you get these orators?”
The old red hills of Georgia are wonderfully
productive of eloquent men and beautiful
women.
It is not alone in this country that after a
woman figures conspicuously and disgrace
fully in a divorce case, she goes upon the
stage, taking it for granted that the scand il
with which she was connected will serve in
the place of merit to secure big audiences.
Lady Colin Campbell, it is stated, is going
on the stage. She may have dramatic
genius, but if she has not, she certainly has
what is too often substituted for it.
People who assert that a federal election
law would break the solid south either don’t

E ismarcs'B Resignation.
When ths result of the recent elections in
| Germany became known, and it was evident
that the government w uid have to
1 depend up a the Clerical, which is
the Cathoi.c, pirty for a majority
;a the lUuehst.g, the tniDrassiou at
once became strong that Bisma-ck’i con
nection with the government would not
continue ion.-. It was believed that the
C.tholie party would dema and concessions
in c nsiaerat; n of its sup;>ort of the gov
ernment to which he would not corse it.
In 1572, when in the higbt of his power, he
to k ground agai st papal infalUbiiity and
insisted upon tl*4 subjection of the Roman
Cathiiic churelf in Germany to civil gov
ernment, aud his refusal oi Mo i lay to
gran the demoiwis of Dr. Windtnorst, the
leader of the Catholic party, made his resig
nation necessary.
The emperor doubtless would have been
glad if he could have retained Bismarck in
office, but the latter’s views as to the policy
that ought to be pursued in the present con
dition of affairs are so dhfferent from his
own that he could not have done so without
abandoning his own convictions as to the
policy he ought to adopt. Before the elec
tions were held he made concessions to tho
socialists of which Bismarck did not ap
prove. The latter believed in a policy of
suppression in dealing with the socialists,
and the emperor hoped that by promising
certain reforms urgently demanded by the
working classes the growing hostility to
imperial government would, to a great ex
tent, be checked. The outcome of the elec
tions did not show his hopes to be well
founded, but if the promises are put into
the shape of acts the results may be more
more satisfactory.
It is quite evident that for the present
the Catholic party has the upper hand. It
remains to be seen whether or not it will be
conservative, and use its newly acquired
power wisely. Dr. Wmdthorst, its leader,
is a man of extraordinary ability. He has
been a power in public affairs for a long
time. The policies he adopts may not
always be successful, but it may be safely
assumed that they will be carried out wita
skill and vigor.
Doubtless the question, will Bismarck’s
retirement be permanent! is being generally
asked throughout the civiliz sd world. The
chances are that it will He will be seventy
five years old on April 1 next, and he is
suffering from the infirmities of age. It is
probable that he would like to have re
mained in office during the remainder of his
life, because such men as he cling to
power tenaciously. They do not like to be
pushed aside, or to feel that there are others
who can fill their places.
Bismarck’s career has been an exception
ally brilliant one. It can be truthfully
said that he made Germany what she is.
From the time, he tecarne minister of for
eign affairs, in ISG3, until he saw King
William crowned Emperor of Germany at
Versailles in 1871, and himself raised to the
rank of prince and appointed chancellor of
the empire, an office specially created for
him, he t worked unceasingly for German
unity. His triumphs of diplomacy and
statesmanship have been many, and
whether he remains in retireme it or returns
again to public life he will retain the pro
found respect and love of the German peo
ple.
The Compound Lard Bill.
There does not appear to be any doubt in
the minds of those who have studied the
matter that the Conger bill, which provides
for taxing compound lard, would be a seri
ous blow to cotton farmers if it were to
become a law. By putting a tax on com
pound lard tiie price of cotton seed would
be reduced, and the price at which it is now
sold le ives very little profit for tae farmers.
The oleomarg irine bill was in the interest
of pure food, but the Conger bill is not. It
is admitted that compound lard, which is
composed of hogs’ lard and refiued cotton
seed oil, iB as pure an article of food as there
is sold. The more cotton seed oil there is in
the compound article tho better that article
is for food purp .ses. Why, then, is
it proposed to tax the compound arti
cle. There ssi only oue reason, and that
is that the manufacturers of hogs’ lard want
to get a better price for that article. Hogs’
lard cannot compete with the compound
article. It is hoped that if the compound
article is taxed it will fall into disrepute
with some people, and that therefore there
will be a groat increase in tho demand for
lard that is not mixed with cotton seed oil.
Cougress understands the issuj thor
oughly, and if it pa isos the Conger bill it
will do so knowing that the masses of the
people will not be benefited, but that a few
manufacturers of hogs’ lard will be able to
make bigger profi s.
The choir which furnished the music

Tbursby received at the Broalway Taber
nacle in New York. Mrs. Dutton, the
present soprano of Dr. Paxton’s choir, will

choir in Brooklyn after May 1, at $2,100 a

Paxton’s choir, will get |1,200 a year after
May 1; Mr. Charles K. Clarke, the tenor,
will get 81,500, and Mr. E. F. Bushnell, the

The Morning News mentioned several
days ago that it had been discovered that a
woman of title was being paid by Ameri
cans to introduce thorn into London society.
The woman in question, it is stated, is Lady

of New York, a sister of the man who re -
cently married Miss Mabel W’right. Lady

THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY, MARCH 10, 1890.
Senator Vooraees’ Bea nation.
Senat r Voorbees, it Respected, will to
day mike an in erecting talc on his resolu
tion, introduced into the Senate on M >:idav,
the suistance of which is that i: is the
highest duty of ongre-s in t oe present crisis
to stop wra gling over pa ty issues and to
devote itself to finding out what k.nd of re
lief is needed by the farmers and other over
taxed and under-pail laborers of the
country. There is no doubt that the senator
w ill teil the republican majority some pret'y
piaiu truths. !Smre the Republican party
came into existence itschief object has been
to retain itself iu power. At the present
time it is thinking more about getting p ilit
ical control of the south than about
the needs of the farmers. In order
to be prosperous the country must be
peaceful and the people contented. The
present administration is doing what it can
to make the southern people discontented
and to fill the south wi h disturbances. It
is appointing masters against
the wishes of the people, and it is putting
into office partisan judges aud marshals,
who seem to take delight in arousing politi
cal animosities by political persecutions.
The farmers have nothing to hope for
from the Republican party. That party is
responsible for the present high protective
tariff, which requires the farmers to accept
free trade prices for all they produce, and
to pay protection prices for all they buy.
Why any considerable number of them con
tinue to support a party that deals so un
fairly with them is one of the things that it
is impossible to understand.
Tne farmers of the south are in a fairly
prosperous condition, because they raised
goods crops last year. They cannot, how
ever, expect good crops every year. This
year may be a bad one for them, and their
condition may become as distressing as*that
of the farmers of the west. No doubt Sena
tor Voorbees has prepared himself carefully
to speak on his resolution, and if he disap
points his friends it will be the first time he
has done si on such an occasion.
Cold Weather Loses.
The cold weather of this month has done
an immense amount of damage in this state.
South Carolina and Florida. The am >uut of
the damage cannot be approximately esti
mated, but it must be hundreds of thousands
of dollars. The exceptionally warm winter
led gardners and truck farmers to piant
vegetables very early, and when the first
cold wave came early vegetables
were being shipped to market
from Florida, and tho shipping rf
them from this locality and from the
vicinity of Charleston would have been
begun within a day or two. Strawberries
had been in the market for weeks, and the
blackberry and raspberry vines were in
bloom. There were small pears on the
LeConte pear trees, and the orange trees
were to a great extent in bloom. Indeed,
all kinds of early fruit were well advanced.
The freeze ruined the vegetables and hurt
the fruit trees greatly. It was thought after
the first freeze that there would be
a small pear crop, and that only very
young orange trees had been injured. Tho
last freeze, however, does not leave much
room for hoping that there will be any
early pears this year, and it is pretty car
tain also that iu soma sections of Florida
the orange groves been hurt to such an
extent that their yield will be fully a third
if not a half less than it would have been.
Of course the truck farmers will plant
again, but they will not get the high prices
for their vegetables that they would
have obtained from the products of their
first planting, because they will come into
competition with the truck farmers of Vir
ginia and New Jersey. This year will un
doubtedly prove to be a poor one for vege
table and fruit growers of Florida and
portions of Georgia and South Carolina.
Of the individuals, firms and corpora
tions rated by Bradstreet’s agency in the
United States and Canada in 18SJ, 1.27 per
cent., or 13,307, failed, and it is worth not
ing that 91 per cant, of these failures
represented concerns with a capital of less
than $23,000 each. The greatest number of
failures occurred among firms having loss
than $5,003 capital each. O.ily a fraction
more than 4 per cent, of the total failures
were of firms having from $20,030 to
$50,000 capital each, and only one-ninth of
1 per coat, among those having a capital of
$1,030,000 or more each. The agency is
now directing its attention to dot.'running
the number of failures resulting from in
competence, inexperience, undue competi
tion, unfavorable circumstances, fraudulent
disposition, etc.
The leading New Orleans newspapers dis
approve of Gov. Nichols’ action in refusing
to accept for the state, to be used in repair
ing the levees, the proffered contribution of
$100,003 by the Louisiana Lottery Com
pany. From this distauce it looks os if the
governor acted conscientiously. He inferred
that the company intended to ing atiata it
self into the favor of legislators by making
the offer it did. The action of the legisla
ture, in case there is au attempt to secure a
renewal or extension of the company’s
charter, should, Gov. Nichols thinks, be un
influenced by such things.
The New York Press says: “The history
of tariff legislatioa in this country during
the last quarter of a century shows that all
reductions of revenue, all revisions of rates,
all corrections of inequalities have been
brought about by the Republican Darty,
and not by the Democratic party.” This is
a singular stato uent, coming from a repub
lican organ. Do the republican organs
begin to see that tariff reform is going to
win. and are they preparing to flop?
Some of the northern newspapers have
come to the conclusion that the state prohi
bition convention, which will meat in At
lanta Mav 8, will be given a political turn,
and that the prohitoitionists will run a slate
ticket of t leir own this year. There are
always men in these conventions who feel
that they must forget the Democratic party
in their devotion to prohibition, but here
tofore wise counsels have prevailed, and no
doubt they will prevail azain.
Ex-Senator Jones, of Florida, is evi

last exmbitiou of mental weakness was a

An I care is so w ing my looks w ith white
As I wend through the fevered mart.
I’m tired of lli • w orld, with its pride and pomp,
An I fain ■ seem u worthless thing;
I'd barter it all for one day’s romp
And a swing in the grapevine swing,

From tnu world in day,
Hwmging in the grapevine swing.

How’s
Your Liver?
Is the Oriental salutation,
knowing that good health
cannot exist without a
healthy Liver. When the
Liver is torpid the Bow
els are sluggish and con
stipated, the food lies
in the stomach undi
gested, poisoning the
blood; frequent headache
ensues; a feeling of lassi
tude, despondency and
nervousness indicate how
the whole system is de
ranged. Simmons Liver
Regulator has been the
means of restoring more
people to health and
happiness by giving them
a healthy Liver than any
agency known on earth.
It acts with extraor
dinary power and efficacy.
NEVER BEEN DISAPPOINTED.
Asa ceneral family remedy for Dyspepsia,
Torpid Liver, Constipation, ete..T hardly
ever use anythin? else, and have never
been disappointed in the effect produced:
it seems to he almost a perfect cure for all
diseases of the stomach and Bowels.

Sick Headache and relievo all the troubles inci
dent to a bilious state of the system, such as
Dizziness, Nausea. Drowsiness, Distress after
eating. Pain in the Side, Ac While their most
remarkable success lias been shown in curing
SICK
Headache, yet Carter’s Little Liver Pills
are equally valuable in Constipation, curing
and preventing this annoying complaint, while
they also correct all disorders of tne stomach,
stimulate the liver and regulate the bowels.
Even if they only cured
HEAD
Ache they would be almost priceless to those
who suffer from this distressing complaint:
but fortunately their goodness does not end
here, and those who once try them will find
these little pills valuable in so many ways that
they will not be willing to do without them
But after all sick head
ACHE
is the bane of so many lives that here is where
we make our great boast. Our pills cure it
while others do not.
Carter's Little Liver Pills are very small
and very easy to take. One or two pills make
a dose. They are strictly vegetable and do
not gripe or purge, but by their gentle action
please all who use them. In viaLs at 25 cents;
