'A
Our Washington Letter.
The House has been quite lively on
several occasions this week. The civil
service law came in for shine Inml
knocks from both parties, and a humor
ous criticism of the Administration by
Mr. Allen, of Mississippi, was seeming
ly as much enjoyed by the Republicans
as by the Democrats.
The World’s Fair-bill went through
the Senate without any trouble or de
lay, and the Senate amendments wfcre
promptly agreed to by the House. The
bill is now in the hands of the President,
and will probably be a law before this
is printed.
Secretary Windom has got himself
into the hottest kind of hot water by
what several Republican Senators call
his meddling with Congressional legisla
tion on the silver question, and he is
getting abuse very freely from members
of his party. It will not be surprising
if the feeling against him results in a
Congressional investigation of his re
cent letting of the contract to take seals
in Alaskan waters for twenty years,
about which there are some ugly rumors.
If such an investigation should be hold
and the right witnesses summoned. Mr.
Russell Harrison, the President’s son,
would not be in an enviable position.
Senator Mitchell has made a speecli
in favor of the election of Senators by
the people, and criticising the secret
executive session. The abolition of the
secret session and the election of Uni
ted States Senators by the ' people are
both good ideas, and will probably
come in time, but it will be a long time
llrst.
Speaker Reed’s rules are to be im
posed upon the Senate, unless the
Democrats in that body can defeat a
resolution providing for tho change
which Senator Chandler has intro
duced. The introduction of this reso
lution is believed by many to be only
t he preliminary step toward the passage
of a Federal election law, and other
obnoxious laws. Your correspondent
lias not been inclined up to the present
time to believe that a Federal election
la w would be passed, but this- move
makes it look very much that way now.
We have got along for more than a
hundred years with plain ministers at
the courts of foreign countries, but
now the Senate, at the request of Sec
retary Blaine, proposes that the title
of our principal representatives in Eu
rope shall be "ambassador.” The coun
try is too big and too great to be adopt
ing the monarchial customs of Europe,
and it seems all the more absurd just
at this time when every throne in Eu
rope is tottering.
Mr. Carlisle has declined the proposi
tion submitted to him by the Republi
cans of tlie House to limit tho debate on
tho tariff bill to six days. It lias not
been definitely decided When tho bill
will be taken up, but it will probably
be about May 10th. The bill, according
to so good Republican authority as Rep
resentative Peters of Kansas, places
the Republican party between “the
devil and the deep blue sea.” The
Democratic leaders are perfectly satis
fied to go before the people next fall
with this bill as the issue, and have no
fears of the result.
The Republicans of tho House tried
to make a little campaign material this
week based on the treatment of Repub
lican postmasters in the South, but fail
ed mostignominiously.
Secretary Tracy declined to allow the
Marine band to visit Richmond on May
•29, when the Lee statue is to be unveil
ed.
Secretary Rusk has issued a long let
ter to the farmers giving his ideas of
the cause of all their troubles, and how
to remedy them. S.

Her life was short, but was spent in
so many deeds of kindness and affection
that those who saw her constantly Will

friends but will btiug back a (lood of

"Tho reason why French docks,

fully and in such a way as to also keep

Mr. Friberg, “must be found in tho long

THE ALLIANCE DEMANDS AS SET FORTH
11Y TIIE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.
Whereas, Paragraph4, scoiion2, ar-
tide 4, of the Constitution of Georgia
declares: “Tlie General Assembly of
this State shall have no power to au
thorize any corporation in the State or
elsewhere, or to make any contracts
or agreements whatever witli any such
corporation which may have tlie effect,
or be intended to have tlie effect, to de
feat or lessen competition in their re
spective businesses,or to encourage mo
nopoly; and such contracts and agree
ments shall be illegal and void.”
Your committee respectfully suggests
tlie enforcement of the above Constitu
tional clause in its full and original in
tent, to-wit: “That corporations shall
remain competitive, not for given
points or localities, but for tlie whole
people and the entire State; and that
the powers of tlie inter-State and State
Railway Commissions be so enlarged
as that they may co-operate one with
the other in regulating classifications
and rates, and the warehouse features
of railway cars and depots. And these
regulations should be based upon a rea
sonable cost of construction, equipment
and running of roads, and not upon wa
tered stock or high prices paid for stocks
for purposes of consolidation and con
trol.”
