The times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1882-1897, 1884-01-25

The wild-eyed poet of the Sierras
has been in Washington looking about,
and being enamoured of the Pom
peiian red of its brick dwellings con-
Guided to buy one. He tells the phil
adelphia Press how he came out:
l picked out my house, one
that was marked for sale, one which
/ thought might be within reach of
my very few thousand dollars, and
went to the agent,
"Ah, that house is only about half
a mile from Senator Blaine's and we
shall have to ask pretty good sum,
sir, pretty good sum-"
"Well, put it at your lowest figure
and say at once how much~
."Sixty.two thousand dollars, sir"
1t took my breath away. I went
into the street and looked up house
of humber front.
"How much for the little house
with the Queen Anne gables, Pom
peiian complexion and Jerusalum
tower"
"Let me see. All, that is only a
little from Secretary Blaine's. Well,
ir, I can let you, have that for forty
thousand; only mile from Secretary
Baine's,. sir"
In despair fled, and found at last
the smallest house in all the north
west portion of Washington. In fact,
l think it had been a brick chicken
coop up to the time when they got up
this tremendous "boom" in real es-
tate here. Il belonged to a negro,
and of course was for sale at bar
gain; for the black man does not
quite keep up with tho progress of
Washington city. This black man
had had bay window annexed to his
little brick house; and in cold truth
he big blazing Pompeiian red bay
window was bigger than the house
l did not 60 to the agent this time
but spoke directly to the man and
brother.
"How much do you want, uncle
for your little house here1"
"Fo' dis brich house, sab, wild bay

eyes, uncle"
"Wall, boss, you see Use powerful
close to de mex president beah, sab,
an I'm to get heap o'money for
dis. Yes sab, next President over
dar jis quarter of mile"
"And who is this next President,
uncle?"
"Jimblaine, sah."
l did not buy that bay window
with the house annexed.

He Was Too Late.

Among the passengers on the train
over the Lansing road the other day
was an old man with sore eye and q
squeaky voice and stiff neck. The
train had scarcely left the capital city
when he caught the conductors arm,
and asked If the next station was Liv-
onia.
mo, sir; Livonia is fifty miles down
the road" was the reply.
At Okemos the old gent asked the
same question, and received about the
same reply. At Williamstown he APP
pealed to the passengers, and refusing
to be convinced he pushed his head out
of the window and lost his hat. As
the brakeman announced Fowlerville
the old man suddenly stood up and
asked:
"Did l understand you to say Liv-
oniap"
mo, sir; Livonia is still beyond, {"
was the reply.
He doubted It, and going out on the
platform he got cinder in his well eye
and was presently unable to see at all.
"A kind-hearted man lent him hand
kerchief, and whom the train reached
Howell he was able to run down the
conductor and repeat his former in

The Tariff Bill.

nod
The Morrison tariff bill, 1t is annOuhceu'
will be reported to the House on MONDAY
The bill has undergone very little change
from what it was when Mr.. Morrison IN
trOduced it. The number of articles to be
put on the free list has been reduced to
three, viz: Lumber, salt and coal. Not
withstanding the talk about dlyersi-
ty Of views among the Democrats Of the
Ways and Means Committee it appears
that they all unite in reporting the bill
favorably. This fact is satisfactory proof
that the gOssips at the capitol were not
well informed respecting the sentiments
Of the majority of the committee relative
to the bill. 1t is safe to assume that about
all the stuff that has been written as to
what Mr.. Randall and those VINO voted
for him for Speaker will do has little or
no foundation. Mr.. Randall can probably
be depended on to vote against the bill,
but it is very doubtful that he has taken
such a rash step as to attempt to form
a combination to defeat the bill. He IS
too shrewd "a politician TO do anything OF
that kind. The Democratic party is ire
vocably pledged to a reduction of the
tariff. and il had much better retire from
the contest for the control of the govern
ment at once than to show a DISPOSE
ton to evade the fultillment Of
that pledge. 1t announced tariff
reform to be its policy in its plat
forms Of 1876 and 1880 and in the election
of Speaker Carlisle. To abandon that pol
ley now, or to show any weakness with
regard to it, would be to invite certain de-
feat in the approaching campaign. Com
plant is made by certain revenue reform
crs that the Morrison bill does not 90 far
enough. Mr. Morrison wisely determined
to propose a moderate bill, which
would have some prospect of meeting the
approval of a Republican Senate. If he
had proposed a bill making sweeping re-
auctions 1t would have stood no chance
OF passing, and it would have been said,
perhaps. that it was introduced for the
purpose of being defeated. The present
bill is not only moderate in its demands,
but it makes just about the reductions
which were advised by the Tariff Com
mission was appointed by a Republic
can Congress. II it does not pass it Will
call out a great debate, which will edu-
cate the people and show the country eX-
actIy the position of the Democratic party
with respect TO the tariff.
