week Hiituo of the Greene county peo¬

Iron mine “in that county.” AH the

national capital.
Washington, 1). C. Mch. 8.
Seeretaiy Heagon uttered a sound
truth, and one that is worthy of the
most careful consideration when in
opposing a bill to increase the pension
of a general’s widow to iib ) a month,
he sai“Instead of this Government
being one of tho penile for tie people
and by tliep-ople, it is rapidly becoming
a Government of the classes for the
classes null by the el asses.”
Tills is a true bill, there is
entirely too much class legislation
in this country, and it is on the iu
crease all the time, and it remains for
the people to stop it. Now they have
I>ower, but if the interfence is delay
cl too loug the cl&tses will be stronger
than tho people.
Again there are whispers to tho ef¬
fect that the republicans will report
no tariff bill this session because at
the end of the session, tits Treasury
surplus it is expected will have been
turned into a deficiency. The rurnoi
may possibly ne true about no bill being
reported, but if so it is solely because
tbe republican protectionists have not
been able to throttle the demand for
tariff refrom among their republican
colleagues. The cry for free raw
material is becoming a loud one, parti*
oularly from the Eastern manufactur¬
ers, within a week Senator Hale, who
has been as pronounced a protectioni bt
as Mr. Blaine, presented a long peti¬
tion from New England manufactur¬
ers asking that raw materials used by
them he admitted free of duty.
The first year of the Harrison ad¬
ministration has closed, and one na¬
turally looks around to see what has
hern accomplished, and is compelled
to answer; nothing worthy of even a
su glu line m the history of the coun¬
try, The year has been devoted most¬
ly to removing demociats from office
and settling disputes among republi¬
cans as to winch of them should be
fed at tlie public cri'-.
The Senators are some of them
talking of boycotting tho newspaper
men been use they refuse to tell how
they find out what is done in the alleg¬
ed :rel sessions. The Senate will do
well to go very slow in this matter be
CitU!§6 tUi-ii is a possibility that the
newspapers of the country might re¬
taliate by boycotting the Senate, and
if lin y d;il the temperature would be
pretty low in the north ent of the
Capitol building. Tho (newspapers
can exist without the Senate, but it is
by no means cdrtaiy that the Senate
