Washington Letter.
From Our Regular Correspondent.
Washington, Nov. 29, 1902.
The President has concluded his
message and has sent it to the
printer. Most of the members of
Congress have arrived in Washing
ton and everything is in readiness
for the short session which will
convene on Monday.
From the remards made at the
White House and among the Cab
inet officers it appears that the
vested interets of the country have
succeeded in securing the Presi
dent out of making any important
recomendatiouins in his annual
message and in preventing him
from expressing in his usual forci
ble style his cofivictions that the
tariff needs revising and the trusts
need drastic measures to effect
their control. “A conservative
communication” is the description
heard on all sides, which means
that it will be a milk and water
communication as might be autici
yatedfrom a man whose chief aim
is the presidential nomination two
years hence.
There will be no attempt to
amend the present tariff law at the
short session. Even the tariff on
anthracite coal, which the Secre
tary of the Navy has pronounced
“infamous,” will be allowed to
stand, the plea being that the time
is too short to permit of intelligent
action. The time will not be too
short, for the consideration and
passage of the ship subsidy bill,
according to leading republicans.
The lobby which will come to
Washington to secure the passage
of that measure will far out-weigh,
in the eye of republican members,
the interests of the people at large.
Notwithstanding the short time
at the disposal of the Fifty-seventh
Congress an earnest effort will be
made to pass the Fowler currency

bill, a measure so iniquitous that
the republicans dared not consider
it when an election was pending.
The Anti-Anarchy bill will also be
taken up it is predicted. Ap
propriations on the usual extrava

will be made and, with a depleted
treasury, the members of the Fif

homes with the knowledge of hav

they were elected.

They all believe that the republi
can party is about to demonstrate
to the people its inability to legis
late for the interest of any but a
comparativly few capitalists and
they are confident that the good
sense of the American people will
cause them to revolt and will result
in a democratic land-slide in 1904.
There is no little anxiety among
the republicans themselves and
particularly on the part of the
President. They appreciate that
they stand between the peo
ple and the trusts and pro
tected manufacturers but they
dare not abandon the latter and
trust themselves to the mercies of

Alabama, who succeeded to the
district represented by General

me that the democrats have a great
opportunity now, ,if they only
behave themselves and dont get
foolish. 1 believe they will make
the most of the position. True,
we have no great, leader but I be
lieve we will eventually select a
good mau. Great opportunities
always bring out men of the proper
calibre. We must be careful,
however, not to frighten the busi

r
tion, Senator Cullom is seeking
interviewers and informing them
that, after a careful investigation
of the Sherman law, he has found
that it is all sufficient to prevent
trust evils and that with it the
Attorney General needs no new
legislation to effect the control
of the trusts. Senator Cullom
announces this as though it was a
new and original discovery not
withstanding the fact that the
tame assertion has been reiterated
by every democratic Senator and
Representative and by the demo
cratic press throughout the
country, who have repeatedly
asserted that it was not
new legislation, but a firm and
fearless Attorney General that was
needed to effect the control of the
trusts, in so far as law can con
trol them.
The most alarming reports are
being received from the Philipines
regarding the financial situation
in the islands where the compro
mise currency legislation of the
last session is producing the most
disastrous effects. Unwilling to
permit a silver standard to exist
in the islands, and afraid to at
tempt the change to a gold stand
ard, Senator Long and his collea
gues. contrary to the protests of
the democrats, enacted legislation
providing for currency which
should be neither one nor the
other and now the islands are suf
fering from erratic legislation. It
will be imperative that the Philip
pine Committee of the Senate at
tempt to remedy the existing con
ditions and their efiorts promised
to provoke as lively a debate as
attended the passage of the Philip
pines bill during the last sessson.

Salmi of Ducklings.
Cleanse well two ducklings, sprin

a roasting pan, pouring two table
spoonfuls .of melted butter over
them. BasM often, using more
melted butter as required until the
ducklings are cooked. Take from
the oven, cut off the legs, wings and
breasts in good pieces. Scrape the
rest of the meat from the carcasses,
chop with a teaspoonful of chopped
onion already fried a bit in butter
and heat all in a little melted but

madeira. Add salt and pepper to
taste, thicken with a little browned
flour and pour over the roasted
duckling pieces. Set in the oven to
heat a bit and serve.—Epicure.
Game With Ham.
One of the new ideas in serving
game and poultry as introduced by
Philadelphia chefs will appeal to
the many who think that a touch
of the flavor of ham improves
meats. I mean the new way in
which portions of chicken, squabs,
reed birds and various kinds of
game are dished upon a broad slice
of honev cured ham. The ham is
cold boiled and sliced thin. Under
it is a slice of delicately browned
toast covered with a tender lettuce
leaf. It makes a pretty dish and an
appetizing one. —Good Housekeep

Improvement In Cattle.
A quarter of beef was exhibited
at the market of Mr. C. E. Stocks
Saturday, which attracted much
favorable comment. It was cov
ered with great rolls of fat and is
evidence of the great improvement
which has been made in beef cat
tle during the past few years. It
ought to be only a few years when
Georgia beef should entirely dis
place western beef for Southern
markets. Rev. George W. Stocks,
who has had valuable experience
in this business, says that the
people are giving far more atten
tion to raising cattle for market
than heretofore and that it is be
coming very profitable. There is
nearly always a good market for
cattle that are given good atten
tion. A farmer can raise cattle
in connection with his other work
and his efforts will bring him good
money. The south ought to be
the richest section of the United
States and cattle raising will help
to make it such.
