THE AMERICUS WEEKLY T1MES-REC0RDER: FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1891.
Washington notes,
A NEWSY LETTER FROM THE CAPITAL
CITY.
MiuiMter Mixes Himself Ip in Chilian
Troubles, Probably I indicated Thereto by
the Adminint rat ion—Senator Daniels Con
fldent of lie-election.
Washington, October 3.—When Mr
Harrison determined upon doing the
“jingo” ect, in the hope of a favorable
effect upon republican prospects in tlie
state elections to be held this fall, he
should have selected a country that was
stronger than prostrate Chili, which has
just passed through six months of de
vastating civil war. The threats tiiat
1 ave heeu made against the temporary
government of that country by the ad
ministration this week must result iu
making the United States appear to the
nations of the world in the role of the
overgrown school hoy “bully” among a
lot of little boys It will take a great
deal more than the reports of Miuister
Egan, who has made hinuelf obnoxious
to the Chilians meddling in their h*cal
affairs to conviuce sensible and un-
pro judiced people that the present
government of Chili, which certainly
has enough trouble at home, would de
liberately and intentionally slight the
United btates in any way, notwitstaud-
ing its knowledge that Minister Egan
should have so far forgotten his position
as to openly take sides in the civil war
which recently ended there, and
it is believed by those who are
tamillar with Chilian affairs that it will
be fully shown upon an impartial inves
tigation that Minister Egan has pur
posely exceeded his legal authority,with
the intention of goading the Chilian au
thorities into taking some step that
could bo considered by tlie United
States as an affront, and it is further be
lieved that iu this Minister Egan lias
been acting iu accordance with the
wishes and inst motions of the present
administration. This is not a pleasant
thing for a patiiotic American to have
to say, but appearances certainly indi
cate its truthfulness.
Senator Dauiels, of Virginia, who has
been making speeches iu different sec
tions of that state, was in Washington
this week. He says there is no opposi
tion so far as lie knows to Ills return to
the senate. Ilia present term does not
expire until March -4, 1893, but his suc
cessor will be named by the legislature
which will be elected this fall.
It will not be the fault of the adminis
tration if the political machines known
•as “state associations” do not make the
departments pan out well in voluntary
contributions for use in the important
states this fall, and lest there might be
some misunderstanding on the part of
the poor clerks as to how the adminis
tration view’s the efforts of these associa
tions to compel them to come down with
their cash, officials just a grade below
cabinet officers have been put in charge
of the various state associations. Sixth
Auditor Coulter is the grand mogul of
the Ohio association. lie prid&s him
self on being known as a “practical poli
tician.” The New York association has
elected General Cyrus Bussey, assistant
secretary of the interior, president, and
on its campaign exccutlvo committee
are A. J. Davidson, deputy commissioner
of pensions; A. X. Parkear, deputy at
torney general, and a number of minor
departmental officials, care being taken
that not more than one of them comes
from the same department. Thus every
department is covered and no “volun
tary” contributor escapes.
Nepotism and republicanism have long
been synonymous terms iu Washington,
but a sensation was nevertheless created
tills week when it came out that three
oraployees of the pension office had
made affidavits and submitted them to
Secretary Noble, charging that they had
. been approached by the same son of
Commissioner Kaum, who was som<
months ago allowed to resign his post
tion as appointment clerk in the pension
office when he should^have been placed
in prison for having engaged in the sell
ing of appointments and promotions
under his father, with ’a proposition to
have them promoted by his father if
they would pay hiui a certain amount of
cash. After these affidavits had been
made and Commissioner Raum had been
called upon for an explanation, that offi
cial had the cheek to ask Secretary
Noble to dismiss the clerks who made
them on the ground that they were en
gaged in a conspiracy to injure 1dm
(Raum) ami the pension office. It re
minds one of the old saw: “Did ever
criminal think well of the law.”
MIm Bright** MUUuery Opening.
Miss C. W. Bright’s opening on Satur
day last was a grand success. All day
ladies were calling and looking with
Admiration upon the rare display of
pretty hats, trimmings, tlowers and no
tions, etc., and every visitor was full of
congratulations. Miss Bright will be re
ceiving goods all during the week and
invites her many friends to call and in
spect her large stock.

The Lanh and Pillory.
New Castle, Del , October 3.—This
morniDg Sheriff Simmons whipped live
criminals, three negroes and two whites,
as follows:
Lorenzo Wa ers, colored, age 1.5, who
also stood one hour iu the pillory.
John Jackson and Daniel Sorden,
both colored, each five lashes.
John Murphey and William Moore,
both white, each ten lashes.
Andrew Price, colored, about 70 years
of age, who stole chickens, stood one
hour in the pillory.
James Hanley, white, found guilty of
forgery, also stood one hour in the pil
lory, and will spend one \ear in jail.
David IS. Hill.
David B. Hill, the governor of the
furniture market in Americus has some
thing to say to the readers of The Times-
Recordkk.
No better evidence of his determina
tion to control the furniture business of
southwest Georgia is needed than the
fact that he is occupying a big space In
the advertising columns of The Times-
IIkcordek; a fact that puts him in con
tact with the people who want to buy
goods.
The man who advertises gets tin
trade.

Fine Sign*.
“The wicked seek a sign, but no sign
shall be given” cannot be applied to
those who pass along the Jackson street

signs ever seen in Araericus and are in
keeping with the general stylo of the
