THE STRUGGLE FOR 1000, 600
HALF AGAINST SHERMAN.


HALR AGAINST SHERMAN.
WASHINGTON. Dec. Ex-senator
Hale has served notice on the pro-
moters of the Whisky bill that he
shall consider It his duty, by all
means in bis power, to strive to de-
feat it.
Senator Sherman. has quite sup
planted Senator Beck as the whisky
champion. liz i'm not suspected, OF
course, that the millions in the bill
have had anything TO do in bring
ing this about That Senator's zeal
certainly is extraordinary, consider
ing that Ohio is not half as much Of
n whisky State as Kentucky is. He
Is a civil service reformer, as any
one knows, and early in the session
stood mp like n patriot, which he is,
of course, for that measure; bat dur
ing the last week he repeatedly
tried 10 postpone that object Of his
first love and put whisky ahead. In
this he failed, and largely on ac-
count Of the able and persistent
Senator from Maine, who, in 80 do
ing, not only represented the senti-
ment of bis own State, but stands
foremost in resisting the greatest
raid yet on the public Treasury.
The song which the Whisky Ring
are singing now Is an old one. In
1874, when they obtained an exten-
sion OF taKes similar 10 what they
are seeking now, they declared thst
IL the boom was denied them, they
would al be ruined. IL was over
production, into which they had
gone unwisely, that had brought it
about, and If they could only get
the roIief which ae extension weuld
afford, they would work OF the
whisky on hand and be careful not
70 be caught 50 again. But they
went on overproducing worse than
before and now they come again
with the old cry Of ruin Give them
a second extension, and they will
GRO on overproduciug. Then will
come the demand 20 have the tax
extinzuished, and instead Of eighty
millions, they will pocket twice or
thrice that sun.
The present bill virtual y grants
a loan of $50, ,000. 600 10 n compare
lively small numb OF whisky spec
ulators, who will BY and by demand
TO have the debt remitted. This is
the view quito extensively taken by
persons most familiar with the OBJ
jects and policy of the Whisky
Ring.

A GOOD FASHION FOR GIRLS.

Prom the New York Ledger.
at is now the fashion to be
healthy" So says the Louisville
Courier-JourRdl, in an article on the
pursuit of be ,uty, wherein it is
asserted that Louisville has as much
female loveliness 10 the square inch
as any city in the United States. 1t
has always been the fashion to be
health in Kentucky, if beauty is an
evidence of health, for that renown-
ed State abounds in beautiful
women.
That fashion cannot become too
general. Teach the girls in every
city and village and hamlet in the
Union that health is the first con-
dition of beauty, and a great many
doctors would have less practice.
There was a time within our
recollection when an affeotation of
was fashionable among
young women. Girls thought they
were more interesting if they were
deemed to be suffering from some
malady. The result was
very often a real illness of a serious
or a permanent weaken
inc of the system brought about by
idleness and lack of exercise.
All this is changed now. Our
girls like to be thought strong and
healthy, and they know that the
surest, and, indeed, the only way to
be thought 50, is actually to be so.
Croquet has done a good deal for
them in prompting outdoor exer-
else lawn-tennis has done still more;
and perhaps the day will come when
we shall see young ladies taking
part in other outdoor exercises.
We rejoice, therefore, with our
Kentucky contemporary,
that it is now the fashion among
girls to be healthy.

A strange accident happened /

A strange accident happened to
a man at the Reading, Pa, Iron
Works lately. He was engaged in
piling up pieces of iron and was
standing on top of the heap, when
he lost his balance. He caught
himself by reaching for one of the
wires connecting the electric lamps
in the mill. The mans grip tight
ened on the wire, and Immediately
the seve-est electric shocks passed
through his bo1y. His face wore a
look as if he was enduring the most
horrible agony. Beads of perspira-
ton rolled from his forehead. His
knees trembled, his tongue seemed
to be fastened to the roof of his
mouth, and he was unable to utter
a word. Finally his companions
noticed his predicament and came
to his assistance. His hands were
loosoned from the wire only with
the utmost difficulty, and then it
was found that they were burned.

TIE TOBACCO TAX.
WHAT HEPEESESTLTIvK CARLISLE
SAYS OF Trs PROBABLE RKDUc-


WASHINGTON, December 25.-lt
has been stated in these dispatches
that there was not much, If any,
prospect Of the removal or a reduc-
ton of the tobacco tax this session.
The Hon. John G.. Carlisle, the
most prominent Democratic mem
Der of the Ways and Means Com
mittee. and one OF the ablest, If not
the ablcst member Of the House, has
authorized the publication of the
following as coming from him: 81
believe the time has come when
those who are known to be friendly
20 the interests involved in the agi-
tation OF this subject should speak
plainly. Affer n careful survey of
the situation, / ana satisfied that no
act repeating the tax on tobacco,
snuff and cigars can be passed at
this session. and 1 am almost as we'll
satisfied that the Senate will not
agree to any reduction below twelve
cents per pound on tooacoO anu
per 1000 on cigars In fact, it is
not By any means certain that these
small reductions will be made. The
Senate Finance Committee proposes
20 reduce the whole tariff system in
the bill which contains the proposed
reduction of internal taxes, and of
course the passage Of such q COM
prehensive measure is, TO say the
least, very uncertain. i think the
manufacturers and dealers in tobac
co. snuff and cigars can safely as
sumo that the question Of repeal IS
settled. The agitation ought now
TO cease, in order that the trade
may 90 on in its usual way" Mr..
Carlisle submitted the above views
for publication only after careful in
vestigation and mature delibera-
ton.

Democratic hulk could only hold to-
gether one short year, and the ques
ton now is what will reformer Bob,
do With his extra session.
Col. A. X. Mcclure, editor of the
Philadelphia Times, estimates the Re
publican majority in the State at
$4,000 to 10000. The Times says edi-
torially:
pennsylvania voted Republican
yesterday, not because the people Of
the State have changed their convic.
tions of purposes within the last twelve
months, but because they are sickened
with the abuse of so. called Democratic
power at Harrisburg. That milestone
has not only crushed out the Demo.
cratic party whose people honestly and
earnestly desire honest administration,
hut it has crushed the reform power of
this city and defeated Controller Page,
after Que of the most gallent fights ever
made in Philadelphia. Pennsylvania
has been literally torn from Demo
cratic supremacy by suicidal Demo
cratic hands, and the time is past when
Democratic leaders can close their
eyes and remain silent, Had Demo
cratic power been faithful to lhe trust
given it in generous confidence, Penn.
sylvania would have voted Democratic
yesterday as surely as the setting OF
the sun, and the electoral votes or the
State would have been settled in ia.
vor of a conservative and patriotic Dem
ocratic nominee, but madness or inn
becllity ruled the faction that gained
accidental Democratic power, and the
Democrats must now start their bat
tie anew for 1884, broken in prestige
and weighted with the pronounced
failure Of Democratic reform in the
debatable and usually controlling
State Of the Union"

intercolonial railroads would have
amounted to but little but for the old
soldiers OF the rebellion who, after the
war sought the Territories as the field of
enterprise. They had made these rail-
roads possible and prosperous. At the
conclusion three cheers were given.
THE LAST SPIKE DRIVEN HOME.
The foreign guests were then oiven
s1ats ON the platform by the railroad,
and photograph was taken of them.
Mr.. Willard and family. and the most
distinguished Americans. After that A
horse. that had helped to build the road
from its inception, was brought upon
the platform.
Then there was witnessed a most ex.
traordinary spectacle. Three hundred
men, with brawny arms. uuickly laid
the iron and drove the apikes on the un-
completed track. except the last spike.
During the progress of the work. which

the first spike on the opening of the
road, and this spike was the same one

The end was reached as the sun was
setting behind the Isountsins, and the
enthusiasm Of the people-variously es-

soribable. The nights reverberated the
