WASHINGTON. ID. c., Jan. ~. '83
It is pleasant to fiud politicians who
are opposed to each other, who do not
allow their political rivalries to affect
their social intercourse. As is, Of course,
we'll known, Mr.. Blaine is strongly op-
posed to Mr.. Arthurs candidacy for q
second term. and it is probable that Mr..
Arthur in turn does not look on Mr.
Blaine's candidacy with any more pleas
ure. But on New Years day the Presi-
dent had the good taste to ignore the
political differences and compliment Nj,
Blaine by inviting Mrs. Blaine to join
the ladies who assisted at the White
HOnse reception. Early this month Mr..
Blaine will acknowledge the courtesy by
giving handsome dinner to the Presi-
dent at his residence on Lafayette
Square.
Congress, though the fount of all real
power IN the government, has very little
social influence at the capital. There
are not two dozen members known in the
higher circles of Washington society, and
most OF them know nothing Of social life
here beyond what is to be found in
boarding houses and hotels. Any one
attending reception in the West End
and then going to hotel hop. frequent
ed almost solely by minor officials and
members wives and daughters would
hardly believe he was in the same city.
Ultra fashionables avoid hotel hops and

theless they are often very brilliant and

This is the amount, Secretary Folger
says, the government paid for counsel

General, with a salary of Sl2 500, drew
$1,000 ADDITIONAL for services already
paid for by his salary. George Bliss
made more money out of the government

The present time he has been paid $7S..
