WEEKLY CONSTITUTION: ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 20,
A JOB FOR CONGRESS.
2T IfOW BA.S TO GO ABOUT ItEPAIB
ISO THB DAMAGE.
PARTY CRACKS TO BE CALCEMINEO.
Mr. Cleveland is Not In Touch with the Con
groasinen—Betting Against the Mug
wumps—Other Washington News.
Washington, February 12. —[Special.] —Not-
withstanding the legislative questions
of importance which occupy the attention
of the average member of congress con
siderably, democratic members manage to
find time to discuss the future of the party.
The democrats of congress are almost unan
imous in the opinion that that great body
is carrying somewhat of a load in its pres
ident. They believe the president to be
a good man. The time was when they con
sidered him a great man but Mr. Cleveland
has undoubtedly made many errors during
his present administration of the affairs
of the government. He has committed er
rors that have injured the party materially.
In his management of the Hawaiian af
fair, for instance, he has done incalcula
ble damage to the party. Then again he is
against the great pass of the democratic
party on the llna icial question. He rep
resents the east entirely in his views on
this question. He lias also in his appoint
ments recognized rqugwumps in preference
to democrats in a large measure. All this,
of course, has ten led to injure the party.
There In Ularil Work Alienil.
The democratic leaders are, however,
right now hard at work preparing for the
congressional ejection. While a few have
expressed thq opinion that the democrats
might lose the house, the best posted of
the democratic leaders have no idea that
any such thing will happen. The house will
certain'y do its part towards redeeming
every plank of tne democratic platform,
and the most far seeing politicians are of
the opinion that the democrats will control
the next house as they control tne present.
They, however, realize that it will lane
considerable work, and they are preparing
to do that work—sufficient to onset the mis
takes of the president.
It is of the utmost Importance to the
democratic party that tne next house of
representatives should be democratic, it
is not improbable by any means that that
house will nave to elect the next president.
There are many democrats who believe
that Mr. Cleveland's nnancial policy and
acts may have the effect of increasing the
populist party in some of the western
states. That party may carry all the states
it carried m tne last election. It may carry
one or two more. In that event and in the
event that the democratic party loses some
of the doubtful states to the republicans,
the next presidential election would be
thrown into the house of representatives.
With that probability, it is necessary that
the democrats should control the next
house, and the leaders are doing work now
to make sure of accomplishing that end.
Tom nn<l Bill Alter H.
Speaking of the next republican nomina
tion it seems now that the leading candi
dates will be Tom Reed and William Mc-
Kinley. Reed is making a grand stand
play for the nomination already. He is not
an announced candidate but it is known
among his friends that he is very anxious
to be the nominee and is working to that
end There is indeed a general understand
ing among the republican members of the
house that"'Mr. Reed wants it and he will
probably be supported by a majority of
them.
For the first time in his career Mr. Reed
has commenced saying bitter things about
the south and southern men in congress.
He evidently belives that such statements
and such speeches will aid him with the
republican party.
Saves Ills Kisses for Ruth anil Esther.
Notwithstanding the Lenten season is
on. President Cleveland has decided to con
tinue his tri-weekly receptions to the public
at the white house.
President Cleveland inaugurated these tri
weekly receptions during his first term. At
the commencement of this term, however,
he discontinued them and only began them
anew this winter. Hereafter these recep
tions will be held at 1 o’clock in the after
noon on Mondays, Wednesdays and Satur
days of each week. They last one hour or
so long as it takes the crowd assembled to
pass by and shake the hand of the presi
dent. Apparently Mr. Cleveland enjoys
these receptions, but he absolutely refuses
to kiss the babies. Many ladies take ad
vantage of the afternoon receptions and car
ry their babies, and some have the temerity
to request the president to kiss them. He,
however, refuses on each and every occa
sion.
Judge Maddox on the Committee.
The democratic congressional campaign
committee has been organized and Senator
Faulkner, of West Virginia, was selected
as chairman. Judge Maddox represents
Georgia, on the committee. The committee
is already at work and expects to accom
plish great Things in the next campaign.
Among the speehes they' will distribute are
those of Speaker Crisp and Judge Maddox
on the tariff.
Mr. Hutch and His Bill.
It will probably be some time before the
new anti-option bill, recently introduced by
Representative Hatch, of Missouri, comes
before the house for consideration. The bill,
under the rules of the house, was referred
to the committee on ways and means. Mr.
Hatch, who is the chairman of the commit
tee on agriculture, thinks the bill should
be considered by his committee, and will
soon make a motion in the house to have
it transferred from the ways and means
committee to the committee on agriculture.
The ways and means people don’t want
the bill. They have had enough work on
the tariff bill to last them an entire session,
and will consequently make no opposition
whatever when Mr. Hatch makes a motion
in the house to have the bill taken from the
ways and means committee and sent to
his committee. Os course, the committee on
agriculture, when it finally gets the bill, will
nut delay its report to the house.
Did Not Dure Do Otherwise.
Washington, February 14.—(Special.)—The
sub-c>m>mittee of toe senaie mumes
committee has finally agreed upon the sugar
schedule. It will be reported to the commit
tee and back to the senate in the same
shape it passed the house—that is what all
sugars, both raw and relined, on the free
list. This means a death blow to the sugar
trust. The representatives of that trust will
attempt to amend the bill in the senate, but
it is not probatne that they will succeed.
Even should they succeed in the senate, the
conference committee of the two houses
would certainly strike off any duty' that
might be pu. on, and piace it on the free
list in the bill as it finally' goes to the pres
ident. The committee agreed to put sugar

on the free list after having agreed to re
port the income tax favorably. They find
that with the other features of the bill,
eluding a duty on coal, the income tax will
raise ample revenue to meet all the expenses
of the government. Therefore, no duty on
sugar is necessary, but, before the subcom
mittee agreed to make sugar free, as it was
in the house bill, its members made a poil
of the senate found that sufficient votes
could be had to pass the bill.
Did the Bent They Conld,
The Louisiana senators have made a gal
lant fight for a duty, but they at last real
ize that it is impossible for them to get it.
They may vote against the bill, but that is
not definite by any means. They know
that their votes cannot prevent the passage
of the bill, but, as there a.e many other
features in it in which they are deeply in
terested it may be that both Senators
White and Caffrey will vote for the tariff
bill when it comes up on its final passage
in the senate. It is probable that the
finance committee will report to the senate
during the latter part of next week. The
subcommittee has practically settled ad
differences now, and when i treports to the
senate the bill will go through without any
great amount of opposition or fight on the
floor. The differences either have been or
will be settled in committee.
Won u Sudden Popularity.
The income tax is by far the most'popular
feature of the tariff bill. Senators of -ill
grades and distinctions are hiding behind its
mask. It is rather a rapid change which
has wrought this apparently much despised
measure from the weakest section to tlie
strongest. Senator Lindsay, of Kentucky
said yesterday that he did not believe that
there could exist any concatination of
events which could now defeat the meas
ure.
The subcommittee is nearing the end of
its report and so far has decided to extend
the bonded period for whisky to five years
and leaves it with the whole committee to
decide upon the tax, recommending that
it be not less than sl.lO and not more than
$1.20. The probability is, however, that
the whole committee will fix upon sl, tiiat
recommended by the secretary of the treas
ury and agreed upon by the house.
Mr. Wataoii'a Contest.
Congressman Lawson, of the committee
on elections, received a letter some time
ago from Hon. Thomas E. Watson in
which the latter Inquired when he would
have a hearing in his contest for the seat
of Major Black.
To this Mr. Lawson leplied to Mr. Wat
son as follows:
“I am unable to furnish you with definite
Information as to the time when the com
mittee on elections can consider vour con
test. There are four undetermined cases
preceding yours, one of which has been
argued and submitted to the committee,
another will be argued tomorrow and two
others which have not been reached. It is
probable that your case will not be reach
ed before the middle' of March. If you
will indicate some time subsequent to the
middle of March when you would prefer the
case taken up I will notify Major Black
and see if a day can be fixed by the com
mittee to suit yon. You had better name
a period embracing several weeks in order
to meet the conditions of business pending
before the committee. The record in the
case now pending is very voluminous and
will probably require two or more weeks
for its consideration. Very truly vours,
"THOMAS G. LAWSON.”

He Bays Mr. Cleveland Snubbed the Ha-
Walin Government in Hie lUoceedinge.
Dole Refers to Blouut’e Report, Etc.
San Francisco, February 15.—(Copyright,
1894, by Associated Press.) —Advices receiv
ed from Honolulu to February 3th, by the
steamer Alameda give the full text of
President Dole’s letter to Minister Willis
in reply to the latter’s request for speci
fications of the statements made in the
previous letter from President Dole in re
gard to the attitude of the United States
government. President Dole’s letter will
fill about five newspaper columns. He says:
‘‘ln compliance with your request for cer
tain specifications concerning my letter of
December 25th, 1 reply thereto as follows:
‘‘First, you inquire as to the meaning of
the word ‘attitude’ as used in my letter.
In reply, that word was used by me in its
ordinarily accepted sense, meaning bearing,
posture, as indicating the purpose of those
referred to. Your further say, ‘will you
point where and when and how the repre
sentatives of the United States assumed
any attitude toward the supporters of the
provisional government or that government
Itself other than essentially and designedly
expressive of peace.’ In reply, I would say
that the attitude of a person is to be as
certained only by inferences drawn from
the known words and acts of such a person
and the conditions and circumstances under
which they take place.’’
President Dole the.i states the following:
‘‘A treaty of annexation had been nego
tiated between the provisional government
and the United States government and pre
sented to the senate for ratification. This
treaty was withdrawn by President Cleve
land immediately upon his entering office,
without prior notice to this government
or its representatives of his intentions so
to do, or of his reasons for such action.
‘’lmmediately thereafter tlie president ap
pointed Hon. James H. Blount special com
missioner' to Hawaii to investigate tlie con
dition of affairs at Hawaii. The knowledge
of such appointment was withheld from the
representative of this government at
W.isniiigton. Tlie press having announced
tlie appointment, the Hawaiian representa
tive applied to the state department for in
formation concerning the same. The sec
retary of state refused to state the object
of the mission or even to admit that a
commissioner had been appointed.
Made I‘riviite ini e .ligntioiis.
‘‘On the 19th of June, 1893, Air. Thurston,
the Hawaiian minister at Washington, ad
dressed a communication to Mr. Gresham,
secretary of state, in which the following
language is used, viz: ‘I am directed by my
government to report to you that while the
Hawaiian government has full confidence
in tlie good faith of the United States to
ward Hawaii, and, concerning its treatment
of its relations between tlie two countries,
it seems proper that it should be inlormed
as to the effect of the present uncertainty
as to the ultimate course to be pursued
upon the situation in Hawaii. It is impor
tant for the Hawaiian government to know
tlie intentions of the United States govern
ment concerning annexation at as early date
as possible, as, if annexation is not to take
place, the methods of treating local condi
tions in Hawaii must be radically different
from those to be pursued if annexation is
to take place.’ No reply has ever been
made to such communication.
“Upon the arrival of Air. Blount in this
country, he did not communicate in any
manner, or intimate to the Hawaiian gov
ernment that his investigations were to be
directed toward tlie right of tlie existence
of the government to which he was accred
ited. Ait of his investigations and examina
tions were private and such persons only
Were examined as he enose to call. Exam
ination ot ms report: , since published, shows
tiiat there are statements by approximately
sixty royalists and twenty supporters of the
provisional government. 'Hint lie hail ob
tained no si.iieiuent troni the tour inein
bei’S of the caouiet voted out before tf.e rev
olutionary attempt of the queen, although
fie lias obtained an exhaustive statement
Horn the royalist successors.”
Mr. Blouut's Hostile Report.
President Dole next refers to the final re
port made by Air. Blount, and says it is dis
tinctly hostile to tne provisional govern
ment, and that the provisional government
has never been requested to give an expla
nation of the charges preferred by
Air. Blount, or given any opportunity
to reply to them.
In regard to Gresham’s letter to President
Cleveland last October, President Dole
says:
"You have intimated that the foregoing
letter being a domestic transaction is not
Hie subject of diplomatic consideration. I
must sutiiiiit, however, mat a coinmun.ca
tion from the chief of a department of state
to the president, in wnich he charges this
government arid its officers with conspiracy,
weakness, timidity and fraud arid recom
mends its subversion, wliicn letter is offi
cially furnished to and published by the
public press without any information con
cerning the same being afforded to this
government is not a 'domestic transaction’
and is a pre-eminent subject for inquiry on
the part of this .government as to the in
tentions of your government concerning
subject matter.
"On November 14th Mr. Thurston, the
Hawaiian minister at Washington, cxJied
on the secretary of state and inquired if the
above letl.'ir was authentic and was assured
by Mr. Gresham that it was. Mr. Thurs
ton then said: T wish then to further ask
whether it is the intention of the I'nited
States government to carry out the policy
therein indicated by force, or in other
words, if whether the. provisional govern
ment declines to accede to the request of
the United States government to vacate in
favor of the queen, the United States troop.i
will be used to enforce the request?’
Yt i’li-; nil Executive Officer.
‘‘We do state that Mr. Thurston received
no satisfactory reply to this question. Presi
dent Dole then said to Air. Willis:
‘On November 7th The Hawaiian Star
published a statement, purporting to
be the report of remarks made
by you to a delegation of the
American league, in. which tlie following
words are said to have been used by you:
"I have my instructions, which 1 cannot
divulge, but this much 1 can say, that the
policy of the United States is already for
mulated regarding these islands, and that
nothing which can be said or done over
here or there can avail anything now. I
do not come here as did Air. Blount—l come
here as an executive officer. I come to act.
When the proper time arrives I shall act.
I wish to state positively that any outsiue
interference will not be tolerated by the
United States.”
‘‘l am not aware that you have ever dis
avowed the correctness of this report.”
President Dole next takes up President
Cleveland’s message to congress, delivered
< December 4th, last, and quotes from it us
follows:
“ ‘Upon the fact developed it seemed* to
be the only honorable course for our gov
ernment to pursue was to undo the wrong
that has been done by those representing
us and to restore, as far as practicable, the
status existing at the time of our forcible
intervention. With a view of accomplishing
this result within the constitutional limits
of executive power, our present minister at
Honolulu has received appropriate instruc
tions to that end.’
“On December Ist, last, the United States
dispatch boat Corwin, arrived in Honolulu
from San Francisco bringing dispatches to
yourself. No mail was allowed to be brought
by her, but the press of Honolulu obtained
from persons on board of her and published
the above extracts from the president’s
message. But for such accidental informa
tion, no information concerning the same
would have been obtained by this govern
ment until the arrival of the Alamejla on
December 22d.”
President Dole’s letter continues:
“Up to tlie time of the arrival of the
Corwin the United Slates naval officers in
port were in the habit of coming ashore in
citizen's dress. The crews received the
usual liberty on shore and no unusual war
like preparations were visible on board.”
Excitement Wan Intense.
President Dele recapitulates other events
that transpired during the period since Air.
Willis’s arrival at Honolulu and says that
within his fifty years’ residence in Hon
rolulu ‘‘there has never been a time when
the country has been subjected to such a
(train and excitement as during the eight
days following tlie arrival of the Corwin.
The business of the entire community was
iractically suspended and its time and en
ergy devoted to the exciting and absorbing
consideration of the political situation and
to military preparation to meet unknown
contingencies. I also state with equal de-

stipation is the most frequent cause ot most of them.
One of‘ the most important things for everybody to
learn is that constipation causes more than half the sickness
in the world especially in women; and it can all be pre
vented. They who call tlie cure for constipation a cure-all,
are only half-wrong after all.

a drucjo-ist, the pills will be sent by mail, 25 cents a box.

HOW TO TAKE THEM
First night, take one at
bedtime. If this does not
empty the bowels freely,
the second night take two.
If this fails, the third night
take three, and so on;
for a child old enough to
swallow a pill, one pill is the
dose.

The Knights of Labor for Balance of
Salary.
Philadelphia, February 17.—1 f a bomb had
been exploded in the midst of their camp
the' local Knights of Labor could not have
been more surprised tnan tac,. were. tod.iy
when John W. Haynes, general seciet.ii.
treasurer of the oruer, issued tne foliuMi.ig
notice: „ ,
"To the Order, Wherever Dound-
Greeting; Brothers T. V. I'o w
derly, past general master work
man;’ A. W. Wright and John. Devlin,
of the late general executive beard, have
entered suit against tne Order ot the
Kmgnis of Labor, for balances ot saiary
wnleii they ciaim are duj mem. Tins no
tice is published 10 prevc.it any credence be
ing given 10 unrenaoie siateiiienis mat may
be made in tlie public press.
"If by decree ot court it is learned that the
order is muebted m any nay to me claim
ants the oruer is and will be tally able to
meet any just claims.
"JOHN W. HAYES, -
“General Secretary-Treasurer.
The notice was the mst mtiimiuoii mat
the rank and tne of me oruer 11. id mat I or
derly, Devlin ana vvngnt nan or contem
plated entering a suit against tlie i>ru t r or
would in any way attaca 11. it was an open
secret mat the deteated trio were coie.ny
endeavoring 10 create dissension in tne
raiiits of me aniguts, out m view or th.-ir
past expressions it was uot supposed i.iac
tney would ever come uin ooluiy uua siio»v
tneir lianas. , , ,
it was ascertained that j?owuerly f ct al.
in bringing tneir suits, aid not specify tne
sums wnicn tney ciaiinea.
Within tne past month, Air. Powderly has
presented bills to me order lor salary and
expenses amounting to S3,UOU. lc is .•■tated
as the belief of those in a position to know
tiiat he will not coniine llis claims to me
inns he has presented, but will make a bold
c aim for an enormous sum tor me purpose
of creating consternation in the rank and
me.
In reference to the suits, Secretary-Treas
urer Hayes said:
‘•The notices of the suits were served on
General Alaster Workman Sovereign before
he left tor Washington, the m.uum ot the
week. The claim or two of the members is
so small that they very well knew that they
could get their money whenever they want
ed it. In fact tney have come in here from
week to week ever since the convention and
got whatever they asked for. Powderly did
not present his bills until a short time .ago,
and then six months in a lump. He should
have presented them monthly and lie knew
it. There was nothing left for us but to re
fer them to the general executive board for
audit. It looks like a scheme and a very fit*,
tile one, to disrupt the order.”
