Looking After Mr.. ArthuI's In
tPPPSfS,


1t would be quite a surprise to the Presi-
dent, and, perhaps, to Mr.. Evans, Com
missioner Of Internal Revenue, If the heh-
lucky delegation to Chicago should net
be for Mr.. Arthur. When Mr.. Evans was
appointed it was freely said that 1t was
expected that he would manage not only
to secure the Kentucky delegation, butthe
delegations from all the Southern states
for Mr.. Arthur. Doubtless he has been
Manning for weeks to accomplish that
object. He is at present in Kentucky, for
the purpose. it is surmised, Of allaying
whatever opposition there may be to his
pic gramme. 1t is reported that he finds
a great deal more opposition than he ex-
pected. The oficeholders are all in line,
and are ready to back up Mr.. Arthur, but
those who want offices. and are so unfor-
tunate as not to have them, are disposed to
look for a candidate outside Of the White
House. Some OF them favor Blaine, some
Logan, and not a few Sherman. Mr..
Evans has a rather difficult task to per-
form. with not a very promising pros
pect of performing it successfully.
Those who favor other candidates than
Mr.. Arthur have made a proposition to
divide the delegation so as to give
him one-half of it, but II is not
expected that it will prove acceptable.
Mr.. Evans wants the entire delegation for
his chief, and will no doubt think he has
made a failure if he does not succeed in
getting it. The convention to choose de-
legates does not meet until the 1st of May.
There is plenty of time, therefore, to do
good deal of work in Mr.. Arthurs in
terest. The campaign for delegates has
fairly begun. Mr.. Arthur bagged the
first lot-the Louisiana delegates-and
his hunt for other lots will be watched
with increasing interest.

James II. Hood, late resident engineer in

road, running from Wheeling to Parkers-

has used it for three years for summer COM

she's tired out from overwOrk, she says the
Tonic is a daisy. Goodbye! Don't break
your neck going below"
This preparation, which has been known as
PARKER'S GINGER TONIC, will hereafter be
advertised and sold simply under the name
of PARKER'S TONIC. As unprincipled dealers
are constantly deceiving their customers by
substituting inferior articles under the name
of ginger, and as ginger is really an unimpOr
tant ingredient, we drop the misleading word.

hands of Dealers wrapped under the name of
PARKER'S GINGER TONIC contain the genuine
medicine if the fac smile signature of HISCOX

A REQUEST WHICH WAS NOT
GRANTED.
An Unsuccessful Attempt to SwindIe
Senator Wilson, of Iowa.

An Unsuccessful Attempt to SwindIe
Senator Wilson, of Iowa.
Yesterday morning a small boy entered
the Senate chamber and handed a note to
Senator Wilson, of Iowa, says the Wash
ington Post Of the 18th instant. The let
ter was apparently written by lady,
who signed herself "Mrs. Nelson, of Bur-
lington. Iowa." on letter-head of Will
lard's Hotel. The contents of the note
were as follows: 81 have been on visit
to Portland, Maine, and while en- route
from that city to my home in Burlington
by the way Of Washington, | was so UNI
fortunate as to lose my pocketbook which
contained all the money l possessed and
a through ticket from Portland to Bur-
lIngton. Can you loan me $50 until | can
reach my home, when my husband will
return the money at once p Enclosed
was an envelope in which the answer was
to be returned.
Instead of sending the money by the
boy the Senator went out to investigate.
Not seeing any lady he inquired her
Whereabouts of the boy. In reply the lat
ter stated that the note had been given
him by man on + street, near the Ebbitt
House. The Senator dismissed the boy,
and later in the day made inquiries at
Wizards concerning ''Mrs. NelsOn.' He
was informed that no one by that name
was, or had been, a guest there. The
Senator SAYS 1t is clear case of attempted
swindling, and that other IoWans residing
or stopping temporarily in the city had
better be on the lookout for "Nrs. Mel

Tariff Hefnrm in kansas.

Democratic. journals which advocate
high protective tariff continue to harp on
the fact that a Republican was elected to
fill the vacancy in the Kansas Congress
sional delegation, caused by the death of
Mr.. Haskell. Because Mr.. Haskell was
elected by a plurality of only 1880, and
the combined .Greenback and Democratic
vote was 1900 greater than the Re
publican vote. these journals as
sumo that the district is not
Republican. They then proceed to state
that for the vacant place the Democrats
nominated a revenue reformer and the
Republicans a high prOtectionist, ana
that the prOtectiOulst was elected by
majority of 5000. They draw the con-
clusion from their statement of the facts
that revenue reform ideas are making
no Roadway in Kansas, which Il
almost wholly an agricultural
State. These journals are misleading III
their statements. In the first place they
do not dare to assert squarely that the
Haskell district is not a Republican dis
trict. They leave it to be inferred that
those who were Greenbackers voted with
the Democrats in the late Congressional
contest. 1t is more reasonable to suppose
that the Greenbackers voted with the Re-
publicans, because the Greenbackers
originally drew their strength from the
Republicans. and that the majority
of the Republican candidate
was cut down very materially by the
arguments in favor of revenue reform.
laf VIII
tariff was discussed during the brief can
vass that was made the success of the Re
publican candidate was not due to his
protection principles, but to the undoubt-
ed majority where there is no Green
back issue which his party has in the
district and to the unpOpularity of the
Democratic candidate with the rail-
road companies in Kansas. The
Democratic candidate, when member of
the Legislature. advocated measures that
were hostile to the railroads, and the rail-
road companies, which have eXtraordi-
nary influence and power in Kansas, re-
venged themselves by defeating him for
Congress. This fact, however, is kept in
the background by the protection Demo-
cratic journals. Why they keep it in the
background is very evident. If they
stated it their attempt to make a point in
the interest of protection would be de-
feated.
Kansas Congressman ought to be much
better informed respecting public senti-
ment in that State than journals published
hundreds of miles away. Representative
Anderson, a strong Republican, is a
revenue reformer, and Senator ingalls,,
one Of the ablest of the Republican Sena-
tors, voted very generally with the Demo-
Gratis last Congress when the tariff bill
was under discussion, and was only pre-
vented from voting against the conference
report on the bill by the earnest efforts of
his party friends. Let the people OF
Kansas have chance to vote when the
tariff issue, unincumbered with any
other, is presented, and 1t will be seen
how strong the feeling in favor Of tariff
reform is becoming in that and other agri-
cultural States of the West.

A Judge on a TreadmiIl.


The fact has been solemnly telegraphed

and not few pOnderous jokes. Mr.. JUS

getting to the top. 1t is to be hoped his
experience was not so bad as that of one
of the English Judges few years ago, of
whom the following ludicrous story is told
His lOrdship, while visiting a model show
prison in the provinces, noticed a tread
mill, and his curiosity being excited, he de-
termined to try the labor to which in his
time he had sentenced so many prisoners.
He was not to be persuaded out of the no.
ton, and stepping on to the machine, told
warder to set it going. The man did so,
and after about one and a half minutes
experience his lOrdship's curiosity was
quite satisfied, and he ordered the mill to
be stopped. But it turned out that, al
though the mill was set to do the shortest
possible spell, it could not be stopped

remarked that there was only one man in
