Difficulty Of Making Up the Blaine In
restsgdting COmmittee-Disinclindtion
Of Republican Senator's to Serue.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-The anxiety
of the Republican Senators not to serve
on Mr.. Blaine's investigating committee
was so great that there was at last a
threat of conscription. Itwas finally de-
termined, however, that subcommittee
of Republicans should select the victims,
and, accordingly, Messrs. Blaine, Allison
and Christiancy picked out Senators Tel
ler of Colorado, Cameron of Wisconsin,
kirkwood of Iowa, Mcmillan of Mime
sofa, and Senator Hoar for chairman
The general comment is that Mr.. Blaine
seems to have selected with good deal
of judgment the Republican Senators
who will be least missed from their pla-
ces. The Democrats selected as the
members of their side, Messrs. Bayard
Wallace, Garland and Bailey.
BAYARD TAYLoR's SUCCESSOR.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-Mr. Wash
burn, late Minister to France, is spokeI
of as possible successor of Mr.. Bayart
Taylor, Minister at Berlin, news Of who's
death was received here this afternoon
Mr.. Washburn is great favorite in Ger
many, and his appointment would, it i
thought, be very welcome there. Mr.
Washburn is one of the prominent darl
horses for 1880.

A negro in Virginia, it is said, blew
out his brains from modification of hav-
ing been publicly whipped for commit
ting a theft. 1t is said some excitement
has been raised in consequence, and that
an attempt may be made to abolish this
mode of punishment. This case should
be an argument in its favor, if, as the
saying is, "that the law should be ter
ror to evil-doers."

Kansas Meat ON Our Tables.

Ho,o Western Dressed Beef is Brought
Here.
For number of years past the MAORI
ty of meat eaters in this city have thought
that unless the cattle were slaughtered
here the meat was not fit to eat. Mr..
Thomas Bradley, the meat-market man,
has revolutionized this matter, and does
a large portion of his slaughtering in
Kansas City. Then the meat is packed
in the Tiffany refrigerator cars, and in
the course Of week it is landed here
The Tiffany cars are new in their design,
the refrigerator being made by packing
ice on top and thus making an even tenn
perature beneath. The cars are attached
to passenger trains, and are brought by
the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy
road to Chicago, thence to Detroit by
the Michigan Central. From Detroit to
Buffalo they are carried over the Cam
den Southern thence by the New York
Central to Canandaigua, where the
Northern Central takes them to Milton
and the Philadelphia and Reading roaC
brings them to this city. Mr.. j. ii
Weeks, the agent of the Canada South
ern, who superintends the transportation
Of the mea', hopes ere long to have {
dozen cars brought here daily, instead o
two or three.
In the shipment from the West here o
live cattle they lose about fifteen pc
cent. of their weight, while the dresses
meat does not vary more than from T.
5 per cent. When the meat is trans
ported, one of the Tiffany cars will cor
tain about thirty-two head. while, whe
shipped on the hoof only from sixtee
to eighteen cattle can be carried. Th
saving between the two is from $500
5000 for freight. This saving comes o
the price of the meat, and is Of benef

Hon. j. A. MCMAHON requests US
to say that all applications for seeds
DC, should go directly to Gen. VIM.
LIE Due, Commissioner of Agricul-
ture, Washington, D. c., instead of
to Congressman. From sources of
information OF our command, we
learn that cur Representative IS very
hard worked. He is Chairman Of
the subcommittee on the Geneva
Award, and is one of the working
members of Congress. His motion
to suspend the rules and pass the. in
come tax which passed the House
by a large majority, meets the cor
dial approval of our people of every
shade of politics, and all hope the
resolution will pass both branches,
and become like Matthews Silver
Resolution, the precursor of a law in
harmony with it, for we take it for
granted the Silver Bill will become
a law. Go ahead, Mr.. MCMAHON,
and You will find old Preble with
you in all measures of the most
sweeping and radical character in
this behalf, and if not through the
safe and peaceful mode of legislation
relief cannot come, then woe to those
who interpose obstacles. The depth
of feeling, and the stern determine
ton of the masses that the great
crime against labor and enterprise
shall be righted, means a short
sharp, incisive and decisive battle
upon the question, that shall settle
the controversy between Capital ant
Labor, and restore harmony between
the two. Look out for the foot
lights.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1878-02-14

The silver question is one CT great
Importance to the people. The ar
guments against RECOMMENDATION are
weak and easily confuted. The bond
holder tells us that reconciliation
would work great injustice and serve
to %depreclate the value of bonds.
Too much Difference has been paid
to bondholders already. Congress
elected to pay the interest of the
bonds in coin, and certainly did not
specify gold coin. Payable in silver,
our bonds still remain one of the
best investments in the world, and
will not readily be parted with. By
making silver a legal tender we in
crease the wealth of the country at
once by hundreds of millions, and
afford a relief to the great debtor
class which will have it's effect in an
immediate improvement in business
and trade.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1878-02-14

W. notice that the Senate adjourn
ed without action on the Silver Bill
last week. The people r becom-
ing thoroughly tired of the dilly-dal-
lying of this vestige of aristocracy
in our government. 1t is too far re-
moved from the people, and its very
existence is a standing implication
that the people cannot be trusted. 1t
is a clog upon every reform. We
would rather a thousand times, trust
the representations fresh from the
people, and answerable to them every
two years, than the old fossils who
meet and adjourn and draw their
salaries with great dignity and pre-
cision, but who are always behind
the people rather than leaders of
them. Near the end Of their terms
the old fellows wake up a little, and
that is about the only time they give
any evidence of vitality. Guy Fawks
would hardly rouse them were he to
explode gunpowder under them.
They may as well know, that in these
times the people take notice of their
delays, and prefer action to lazydig-
nifty. If they cannot make them
selves useful, they are too costly fol
ornaments, besides the Capitol is now
crammed with too much statuary.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1878-02-14

The failures in the United States
of the first three weeks of January,
are reported to be but little less than
$I5,000,0 600, and possibly exceeding
that amount. 1t this average should
continue, the year would be far more
disastrous than 1878, and nearly
equal to 1875 in the number and
amount of failures. This is the fifth
year after the great panic, and still
crash follows crash, and week by
week the public confidence becomes
more and more shaken. The facts
revealed by late failures show that
many of the firms now being push
ed to the wall have really been in.
solvent since 1873, but have been
since then bolstered mp by business
friends, hoping the tide of misfortune
would soon pass over, and now all
are going down together. Now,
with gold less than two per cent.
above greenbacks, the war between
the resumptionists and a%nti-resump
tionists goes on, and, paradoxical as
it may appear, seems to become
more bitter as the premium of gold
diminishes. Mr.. Matthews presses
for the adoption or rejection Of his
resolutions in regard to silver, with
good reason; but the filibuster
among friends and foes arises in all
his glory, and effectually blocks any
advance. The aim of a majority OF
congressman seems to be to delay all
settlement of the question until ii
can be forced into some political
channel, so thai n party or the 9th.
er can claim all the glory Of the ben.
eits which will arise from a closing
of the discussion. On such an i'm.
portant business measure, however
business men will look to their owl
interests regardless of politics, ane
the prospects are that weeks ant
perhaps months will pass before any
peace and prosperity giving conclu
sions are reached. If anything cal
make 1878 the most disastrous yea
in the history of the country, this
will do it.

Miss ALICE MCKEE of Chicago,
was unable to pay the rent of her
humble apartments, and a constable
entered them in order to levy upon
her furniture. She protested; he
insisted, refusing to show his writ
of authority. He had obtained en-
trance by representing that he wish
ed to obtain board. Miss MCKEE
took a pistol from a bureau and shot
the intruder dead. On the trial it
was proved that the pieces Of furni-
ture on which he was levying were
exempted, and that throughout he
had exhibited i%nsolence and stupid
ity. The jury Immediately acquitted
her, a verdict indicating that a wO.
man in Chicago has some rights
which even officers of the law are
bound to respect.

THE "Pope's toe," "Overproduc-
tion," "Rag Baby" and next comes
"the natural result of the war;" and
this too, thirteen years after peace
has been declared. This only shows
to what straits the bond holders and
their tools are driven. They will
raise any sort of a cry to delude and
hoodwink the masses. Their wan
ton waste and destruction of proper
ty, the burdens they have imposed
upon labor and enterprise, has driv-
en- them to an attempted conceal
ment of their great crime against the
people. A mere faction of the West
and South, joined with the East can
not control. The toiling millions OF
the great Mississippi Valley will
right these matters at the ballot box.
Boston is no longer the hub of the
Western world. There are other
people in our land than money chang
ers. The axis upon which oQr coun-
try turns is not a bond made paya-
BILE in gold. Its destiny has a broad
er sweep, its mission a higher scope,
80
its policy must have a deeper signif'
icance. Men are tired of this miser-
able huckstering of the capitalists
of the shabby trlckstering of their
hired stool pigeons-and the great
political revolution is the result Of
the unreasonable disgust ofall hon
est sentiment.

The Moffatt bell-punch, used by
act of the Legislature in Virginia to
register the number of drinks sold
at the bars, that the tax of two and
a half cents on each drink may be
collected, has called out a great ma.
ny witticisms from the press. The
Louisville Courier Journal falls in
to line with the following:
"The drink-punch scheme for &C.
cumulating a fund for the improve,
ment of our rivers is not only a good
economic project, but it is invested
with a kind of poetic retributive jus.
tice. Nothing could be more appro

Presidential chair. The Republican
rogues, placed in Office by Grant and
Hayes, are giving the public a dose
too heavy for their stomachs TO car

Here's q little conundrum for Bro.
Levi Gould, of the Eaton Democrat:
If failure to get an Office in the Cap
itol, at Columbus, so embitters his
heart against the world, what would
he do were he in Sammy Tilden's sit
uation?-Midmi Democrat.
If we were Sammy j. Tilden and
had permitted the Presidency to be
stolen from us, after being fairly
elected, we would keep our mouth
shut and never ask the suffrage o.
the people again. How will thai
do, Bro. Smiley?
