WORK IN CONGRESS-

II Is no better than Communism u vote
away the public money in the manner in
which il is done in Congress.
Last week, without word of debate, the
House voted pension appropriations amount.
ing to $i00,O00.000 The amount of pensions
yet to be paid is estimated, according to the
morality tables. 81 800 600, 900, which means
IN annual expenditureo OF many millions No
one begrudges an honestly won and well
deserved pension. but their should be dis.
eliminating limit.
So long MS members Of Congress can vote
away the money Of other people aud the
State. they are not likely to resist these
claims.
Only u few days ago the River and Harbor
bill was passed with appropriations amount
ing To $l7.OO0OO0. more than ever before,
and distributed around SO literally that al.
most every State had slice The great
maritime State Of West Virginia. whose sails
whiien every sea u WINS voted $4,000 with
which her trout brooks can be well "salted. f"
These reckless appropriations are simply
violations of the oath Of Office taken by
members of Congress. They are corrupt
ing and demoralizing to The last degree.
II the public treasury is overlooking there
are ways to deplete Il without resorting to
these communistic methods Let Congress
give it, attention TO the Revenue Bill. let us
have reduction Of taxation, a reduction by
which taxes are removed on bank checks,
matches and certain proprietary articles.
and reduced ON tobacco and cigars. Let the
vaults Of the treasury be reduced by The re-

appropriations which are demoralizing

Mr.. MahLOn T, Leaois and j. A. Leaois and
others.
DEAR SIRs Having heretofore conferred
with large numbers of our friends, am pre-
pared 10 answer your inquiry ard to comply
with your request, as to my wishes in relation
to the next election for Judges of the Circuit
Court. am candidate for reelection, and
am reliably assured of being elected. When
was first elected it was made against my own
predictions. But judicious personal and po-
litical friends insisted it was my duty to the
people to accept the position. In doing so
relinquished fatterng prospects of prefer
ment more desirable to me, and professional
practice worth much more TO me tina n the sal
airy of Judge, and more congenial to my tenn
permanent. have, however, now an aversion
to returning to the Bar, and long habit has
made the Bench agreeable TO me, and long ex-
perience enables me 10 discharge the duties
with greater ease and ability, and more ben
e6cial 10 the public than al first.
Having been long isolated on the Bench
from mingling with the masses OF the people,
as formerly, large aumbers of young men,
many Of them sons of old friends, have grown
10 manhood, but with whom have no per-
sonal acquaintance, and without whose votes
| can't hope to be elected Correct public
opinion, as well as my own sense of propriety,
will not permit me to canvass the county 10
form their acquaintance and secure their sup
port, as it would be my duty and pleasure to
do were a candidate for any other Office
must, therefore rely on their activity and the
influence of personal and political friends TO
secure my election.
| have been so blessed with health that
have not lost single day from my seat during
my entire tenn OF Office, and whilst have
concurred in innumerable decisions, | have
never made one that did not Intend and be-
lievc at the time was right under the law, ac-
cordng to the right and equity OF the matter.
1t is source of just pride that an exceeding
ly small number have been reversed by the
Court Of Appeals
What have done in the past is the best as
surance can give Of what | will do in the
future. Yours, &C,

Prince Frederick, the county town of Cal

the town was swept by the flames, among
other buildings destroyed being the Court
House, Many of the Court records were
saved and stored in q house until such time
as the county should soc fit to build new
Court House. Wednesday morning this
house was burned down and with it all the
records. The loss will be irreparable, and
much expensive litigation is likely to result
from the absence of official records.

Nothing sadder in the chronicles OF hu-
man suffering has ever been read than the
extracts from the diary of De Long, just re-
ceived by the Navy Department The ter
rible journey of the lost party is recorded
day by day, beginning in somewhat hope
full strain and noting the division of their
limited amount Of food until finally all is
gone and they killed their dog. This af-
fords them food for several days, after which
begins the record of actual starvation. First,
Erickson dies, and then one after another
until Sunday, October 10, when their faith
full guide, who had supplied them with
such game as could be found, himself broke
down and died. On the following Friday
a note is made that another of their party
was found dead in the morning, having died
during the night while lying between the
doctor and De Long. On the same day an.
other died and the survivors were too weak
TO bury him. On Friday Of the following
week another died; on Saturday another
and ON Sunday, October 80, an entry is
made: "Boyd and Gartz died during the
night, and Mr.. Collins is dying" This j;
the last record, and DE Long, Surgeon Am
bier and the Chinese cook must have died
shortly after. History records few more
heroic deaths, and the query arises Where
in does the world profit by this brave bu
terrible martyrdom?
