Mr.. Hurf!, an Ohio membar OF the next House of
Representa- tives, claims to- have ascertained by a
canvass OF democratic members that threc-fourths
OF them favor "a tariff for revenue only" and he
says that Mr. Rand all cannot be elected speaker
unless he viii agree In advance to give the tariff
refOrmerS control of the ways and means commit
tee. Even II Mr.. Hurd's estim tie OF the demo-
cratic tariff Sentim mt be correct, that gives no
assurance OF what the democratic policy will be.
There are democratic members OF Congress who,
while openly proclaiming their belief in "a tar II
for revenue only" express the opinion that 1t
would be inJuiiclOuS for the party to make that
issue next wint"f They hold that IL the last Con-
gress had not passed any tariff law 1t would have
been the plain duty OF the democrats In the next
Congress TO have planted themselves upon the
doctrine OF revenue tariff and have fought for It.;
but they say that the republicans esSayed tariff
revision In the last Congress and are responsible
for the success failure of the law enacted They
think 1t would be unwiSe for the democratic party,
In the face of presidential election to reopen the
agitation. The question is how many democratic
members of the mkt House think this way? The
number may be so few that it will not materially
weaken the tariff -for-revenue element; but then
again. 1t may be strong enough to enforce non-
committal policy. At any rate, there are demo-
cratic members who adhere to the tarif-for-rev-
enue doctrine and yet avow their support of Ran
dill on the ground that It will not be wisdom for
the party TO revive tariff agitation next winter.

Fast Young Men in Frisco.

Among other things that this metrop-
oils of the mushroom State of California
can boast of, says San Francisco letter,
is lot of fast young men. There is
not, it is safe to say, faster or more ex-
elusive set of dissipated youths in all
the world than there is in this city. The
set is composed principally of sons of
mllliOnaires, who spend their fathers
ducats so lavishly and in such reckless
fashion that Coal Oil Johnny in his best
days would turn green with envy could
he but see them. Among the set there
are one or two penniless about-town
men, who are indispensable to the boys,
as they understand the art of dissipating
SO thoroughly that the young millionaires
cannot do without them.
Each of the gang is good for almost
any amount. Faro bankers trust them
for stacks upon stacks of blue chips,
saloOn-keepers accommodatingly wait
for big wine and whisky bills, and most
of the boys have running accounts at
the prominent assignatiOn and other
houses of the iIk. There is no risk in
trusting these rapid youths, for if they
fail to come to time the creditor has only
to drop a note to the cold man." and
that worthy generally settles his sons
bills rather than brave the scandal of a
lawsuit

A Woman JeweIer in California.


"Have you any jewelry that you wish
mended, or clocks to repair or regu-
late ?"
1t was young woman, neatly dressed,
who asked the question at the front door
of house on Taylor street, recently.
The mistress of the establishment re-
membered that she had brooch with
pin lacking and handed it over to the
itinerant jewler to operate upon. Her
actions showed that she was an adept at
the business. In a neat box, about
fifteen inches long and high, were ranged
full kit of jewelers. tools, including a
spirit lamp and blowpipe. A new pin
was speedily attached to the brooch and
turned over to its owner.
"How much is it ?"
''Twenty-five cents" was the reply.
Having paid the amount, the inquisi-
tive lady of the house asked the travel
ing iewIer whether she had much work
to do.
"Oh, plenty" she answered. "In
some houses [ am kept nearly a day
overhauling clocks and doing little odd
Jobs of mending. In some places l have
fixed as many as a dozen clocks.
"Do you have much regulating of
clocks to attend to?"
"You would be surprised if [ should
tell you how many people there are who
do not know how to make a clock run
faster or slower. But there are very
many. There are some people, too,
who have some expensive clocks who
donot care to tamper with them, and i'll
such places [ am always asked to look
after them"
GLOW do yOn manage to make repairs
where it is necessary to drill holes ?"
"Oh, that is simple enough. 1 have
drills and a small lath that | can attach
to sewing machine, and there is
scarcely house now that does not pos
sess one of those useful articles y
care there any other ladies engaged
in the work you are %
'Not in this city that I know of.
But [ expect that there soon will be
plenty of competition, as there are many
young girls learning the business at the
East. But we can all find plenty of
work, I guess, as there is an awful
amount of breakage in iewelry, and we
can, if worse comes to worse, always
work for less than men with big estab-
lishments and high rents to pay. -
