[Washingtonsletter to Detroit News.l
Two lobbyists were conversing
lnsthe Senate corridors, one of
whom had just returned from
the gallery, where he had been
sent to take an observation.

"That Cd ole eyebrow is

"Well,s ,sthen, he's got 10 be col

AS this conversation took place

inquire what particular "eye.

down." and what particular evil
portended when it happened to
be down.
"Old Edmund's eyebrow re-

that old cuss comes in the Sem

A NARROW ESCAPE.
[Butte (Montana) Miner. ]

Butte (Montana) Miner
A lively fracas occurred on
Friday at Silver Star between
man named Frank Rodgers, we'll
known in Butte, and teamster,
whose name could not be ascer.
tanned. 1t appears that the two
men were engaged in playing po-
ker, when a hot dispute arose
about the deal. Rodgers pulled
a slx-shooter and, holding it up
against the body of the freighter.
told him to "give up that
money" The latter, though not
apparently alarmed. requested
Rodgers not to shoot him down
like a dog, when he was told to
go and heel himself and to "come
back a,shootin'." The teamster
left the house and Rodgers re-
tanned his seat, ready for war.
In few moments Rodgers hap
pened to glance towards the
door, which was partly open, aud
was considerably alarmed to see
a double -barleled shotgun point
ed at him, the teamster behind
it with fire in his eye. Rodgers
made a jump for the back door
leading into a bedroom and was
closely followedaby his enraged
foe. The room being somewhat
dark, and the bed not having
been made up, the teamster mis-
took the clothes, which were ly-
ing in heap, for Rodgers, at
whose supposed body he blazed
away with both barrels The
room was at once filled with
smoke and feathers, and after
the excitement had ina measure
subslded some men entered the
apartment, intending to bring
out all that was mortal of the
victim. They were considerably
surprised, however, to see Rodg-
ers emerge from the bed alive
and unnarmed. 1t appears that
he had wisely concluded to take
refuge under instead of on top
of the bed, and to his foresight
in the matter he owes the pres
ervation Of his life. The above
are the particulars of the case as
nearly as can be ascertained !;
whether they are absolutely cor
rect we are not advised,

An important article on rail
way construction in 1880, the
result of careful and extensive
inquiry, appeared in recent
number OF the Railway Age.
Much Of the information has
been obtained. directly from rail-
way companies and railway
commissioners and other State
officials. The footings, incom-
plete as they may be, are suHi-
ciently astonishing, showing, as
they do, that not less than 1907
miles of new track were laid
during the past twelve months,
on at least 234 different lines.
These figures are far greater
than those for any year since
1871, and the mileage is more
than 81 per cent; greater than
that built in 1879. No doubt the
final figures will increase it to
at least 1900 miles, which is q
greater mileage than has been
constructed in the United States,
or of course, in any other coun-
try,

THE STATE FINANCES.
Am Extra session the Remedy.

The State Treasurer, Major +. A.
Burke, in u letter addressed to the
editor Of the Thibodeaux Sentinel,
asserts that the receipts from taxes
and licenses will not come up to the
appropriations for 1851, by at least
1904, 900, which he attributes to the
defects in the revenue law, which in
the item Of license revenue alone will
cause a deficit to that amount. Hence
the depreciation in State warrants,
The full face of which will finally have
TO be paid by the people.
When it is considered that the mu-
ntcipal and parochial governments are
compelled to abide by the limitations
fixed by the General Assembly in the
matter ofllcenses, IL will easily be seen
how the revenues from that source
are curtailed not only to the State,
but to the parishes and municipali-
ties also,
Through the limitations referred to
the revenues Of the city of Baton
Rouge are iessened to the amount OF
some four thousand dollars. From
this illustration one can judge Of the
effects of the defective law through
out the State.
In addition, by the failure to adj
vertise the property of delinqucnts in
the Parish of Orleans, the back taxes
there cannot be collected
How the State will meet her obi
CATIONS of 1880 and 1881, and how
the Government will be carried on
during the first six months of 1882,
pending the regular meeting Of the
Legislature, which will not take place
until May next, is n problem that we
would like to see solved.
IT'S no use to cry over spilled milk,
however. The Legislature wrangled
80 much during its last session at New
Orleans, that it Matched in haste the
present bnngled Revenue Law, which
is totally inadequate TO cover the needs
OF the commonwealth.
We believe that Governor Wilt,
after carefully considering the exist
ing embarrassments, will come to the
conclusion that the only remedy lies
in converting the Legislature III extra
session, some time this fall, to enact a
proper revenue law, and make ar
rangemcnts to carry on the govern
ment until May of next year, A short
extra session for this purpose will
doubtless meet with no opposition in
any quarter.
