Whatthe Connecticut Senator Thinks Of the
Proper CoNrso for Congress to Pursue-
Presidential Prospects. ss4 r
Washington Specially
Senator Eaton, of Connecticut, who is
here, says that he should, at it's coming ses-
sion, take up the tariff question long enough
to authorize the appointment Of q commits.
sion to investigate the entire question, and
afterward to submit to Congress plan fol
revision. Regarding his anticipations fol-
the approaching session, he says:
know what the body should do, and that
Is, speedily pass appropriation bills. and ad-
journ. I do not believe in excessive leqisls-
ton; in fact. I think the less We have of it
the better for us. Jefferson made q very wise
remark when he said: "That country is gov
erned best that is governed least" / am
afraid that some unwise people may again
attempt to renew the currency agitation.
That would be calamity. It is generally re-
garded az settled. Trade settled it; COM
merce, the calm health Of all the nations,
settled it. God Almighty had good deal
more to do with bringing back prosperity to
this country than John Sherman or any leg
islation. Congress might have passed laws
until it was blind, and still never have
brought about the harvests with which We
have been blessed, nor by that means have
made our exports for the past year exceed by
$500, OO0, 900 the value Of our imports. Sta
bility is what is needed. [Emphatically. I
When men have fifty or hundred millions

sake give them time to turn around before

Reporter effect have the late cleo
tions had upon the prospects for Democratic
success or defeat next year?
Senator Eaton None whatever. The
Democratic certainties of success in the
grand conflict of next year are stonily stall
wart and statuesque. There was but one
State to gain-New York-and think We
have very much the best of it there. Alto
gether We have failed to reap any material
fruits. An idiotic quarrel lost Us absolute
control of the State, and its gigantic folly is
now too clearly appreciated to make repe-
tition possible. One thing is certain: The
man who is the nominee Of the Democratic
convention next year, must be acceptable to
New York. II he 10 that, lie will be elected.
The man who carries New York will inevita-
bly, carry New Jersey and Connecticut.

CINCINNATI, Nov. 23.-The Gazette on this
morning will publish an interview with two
business men Of Belfast, Ireland, now in this
city, in which they state that the sending of
aid to Ireland at this iuncture. would be re-
garded rs an interference by the British gov

requires such extraordinary measures of relief,

land would be equivalent to rendering 30 much

For nearly week past most unpleasant ru-

Colby, whose parents live near Alexandria.
About five weeks ago Mr.. Cowing went 70

pretty heavy collections for Mccormick ma
chinery, wire, etc. At the latter place he left
his team (after Offering it for sale, althoux b
mortgaged), stating that he would be absent
fortnight, and took the cars for st. Cloud,
where he met Mr.. G. A. Freudenreich, whose
sub-agent for machinery he had been in this
county. On the cars at st. Cloud it is believed
that Cowing met Miss Colby, who the same day
left her friends at Alexandria under some pre-
text. e-. *"a... .sE
Is The prolonged absence of her husband ex-
cited anxiety on the part Of Mrs. Cowing here

part of his wife, his partner in the machine
business, Mr.. A. Brandenburg, of this place,

election in 1876. He decided his course
without suggestions from me, and have no
doubt he thought he was doing that
which would result the best for the
country. As to 81 myself, I have
always thought it fortunate for mo that

Burglary at Sidney.

A person by the name of William
Aldridge or Aldridge William robbed
the money drawer of the Lockwood
house at Sidney, last Saturday, of some
$3.50 in mouey and gold watch, and
then skipped. The sheriff of that place
telegraphed the fact to Sheriff Draper,
of this city, to keep on the lookout for
him. Yesterday when the midday
freight train pulled in, Deputy Sheriff
Martin was informed by the conductor
that there was tramp working his
way whom they suspected as the bur-
glar, and consequently allowed him to
ride into the capacious jaws of justice.
The train boys having been informed
of the affair before leaving Sidney, the
fact only quickened his pace to prison,
and assisted the officer considerably.
Deputy Sheriff Martin arrested him as
soon as he alighted, and upon search
ing him found the watch upon his per-
son, and very little money. A LEADER
reporter was on hand and heard him
acknowledge that he was employed as
dish washer at the Lockwood house,
and he committed the crime with which
he was charged, while the clerk of the
hotel was asleep. He contemplated re-
sistance in case of arrest, but conclud-
ed that it would be futile, as he had
but small pistol and only one cham
Der of that was loaded He is an orig
inal in the true sense of the word.
