SENATOR III. q. DAVIS.

The talk that was current at Wash
ington last winter about Senator III. g..
Davis intention to resign his position
in the ULited States Senate ic again
afoat in the newspapers. A Washing.
ton special to the Cincinnati Enqiirsr
of Saturday makes the following refer
ence to it:
The friends of Senator Davis, of
West Virginia, say that he has been
meditating for some time past resigning
bis seat in the senate, where he has be-
come familiar character. lie has be-
come the president of a railroad leading
up the north bank Of the Potomac river
and then continuing southwest 10 a
point near the White Sulphur Springs
on the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad.
On this course Senator Davis has 40
600 acres of magnificent woodland im-
mediately y available for timber when the
railroad shall be opened and it is all un
derlaid with superb beds of coal. At
this time of life the developement Of his
region and the completion of the rail.
road will give him plenty to do. His
first cousin, Arthur German, has, mean
time, been elected to the Senate from
Maryland. Senator Davis is the son Of
a gentleman once quite rich, who failed
when the Senator was a boy, aud he
bad to 90 to work at whatever came
along. He has been altogether the
most energetic public man between the
West and the East, and has played an
important part in the construction of
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. /
was asking one OF bis friends a day or
two ago how he came 10 question the
integrity Of the figures presented by the
government as TO its Indebtedness.
'That naturally arose." was the reply,
't.rom a straight-out business man find
ing that three officers Of the govern
ment were putting down different fig
ures for the public debt. The Register
of the Treasury (Allison) had a differ
eDt bookkeeping from the Secretary and
Treasurer, and it was natural when a
man took up these three reports and
found no two agreeable, he considered
tnat there might be something wrong
with the figures themselves"
In commenting on the above The
Cumberland Daily News says:
Iu regard to Senator Davis resigns
tioH we have lately heard that he at one
time seriously contemplated taking such
a step, but has since concluded TO serve
out his term, and so long as there is to
be Democrat in the seat we hope IT
wsll be Senator Davis, for, cs we said
at the time of his reelection, be stands
head and shoulders above his West
Virginia Bourbon associates, and lie
ADLER, more industrious and more liber-
al than any other man among them.
