The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1886-04-08

The present congress, like ssilboat,
seems to run by wind. There is much talk
and little work. With the exception of the
presidential succession bill, nothing of inn
portance has been accomplished. Nothing
has been done with the silver question, and
the eighty cent dollar is still booming. The
reform of the Judiciary, the shipping ques-
ton, the reorganization of the navy and
other important measures are still In the
background. Much talk and no action has
been and still is the order of the day. Be
fore capturing the presidency and marching
into power, the democratic party accused re-
publican legislators of doing little else than
scheming to keep itself in power. At the
risk of being deemed impertinen:, we ven
ture to ask, what hare democratic con-
gressmen done other than to devise schemes
for perpetuating the ascendency of the dem
ocratic partyf

The temperance question is one of the
most important matters before the people of
this country at the present day. 1t is fore
ing itself to the front: it demands considera-
ton; it will not be put aside, and will be
finally and permanently solved only when the
manufacture and sale of intoxicating bever-
ages shall be, as they ought TO be, entirely pro-
hibited. We believe n majority of the
American people to-day, are III favor
of prohibition. The great problem is how to
b. accomplish it, a question OF ways and
means. That it will ever be reached through
the agency of the political organization call
ed the prohibition party. is altogether i'm
probable. The methods adopted by that
organization are much better adapted to the
question of how not to do il, and better cal
snlsted to bring its self-appointed leaders
into little brief notorie.y than to work out
a great moral reform.

IHE ooNnrTTEK on accounts has been
making al investigation for the information
of congress. 1t finds bat two instances in
which the public business is not conducted
with due regard for democratic simplicity
and reform. The woman who washes the
congressional towels receives thirty cents a
dozen, and the boy who mixes paste receives
one dollar a pail. The committee recon-
',nends that these prices be reduced one
half. The revenues of the country during
the last fiscal year were S323,690, 7O6. 80 and
the expenditures were S3o5 $50, 790.54. In
consideration of the reform proposed by the
committee, it would be interesting to know
how much the expenditures would be les
saned thereby. The present democratic
house being pledged to reform and economy,
of course democratic members are not care
less or extravagant in the use of towels.
Nothing but towels of stoutest texture and
hung on rollers would be in accordance with
true Jeffersonian simplicity. The washing
of such towels, after being used by economi-
cal democratic congressman must be sine
cure. Any attempt to reduce expenses in
this direction will be hailed with delight.

THE total appropriations for the improve
ment of rivers and harbors, as agreed upon
by the house committee, is $15,164, 200.
With one exception, this is the largest bill
of similar character ever presented. From
1872 to 1885, the total appropriations for
this purpose amounted to S1O2,l57,bSs, q
yearly average of $7,2se,s7o, or less than
half the sum now recommended. Evidently
the members of the democratic house have
forgotten their pledges of retrenchment and
reform made when their party was hunting
for votes. Perhaps they do not remember
either how, four years ago, they shouted
steal steal from one end of the country to
the other over similar measure passed I'M
der republican administration.

IT matters not what path the republican
straggler may take, they all terminate at the
same point. Al roads out Of the republican
camp lead into the camp of the democracy.
The dissatisfied republican, although he may
dislike democracy never SO ardently, will,
should he follow any one of those outgoing
tracks, find himself landed in the ranks of
democratic party. He may take the green
bach road, the mugwump road, or even the
prohibition road, the result will be the same.
One path may be more devious than another
bat, at last they all reach their natural ter
minus in the very center of tho democratic
Camp.

IT is reported that Senator Evarts has
purchased handsome silk hat of which he
ia very chary. He wears 1t only on sun
shiny days, never allows il to be hung mp
in the committee or CLOAK rooms, bat keeps
it on his desk. Now, we rather admire the
senator's treatment of his new tile. Some
senators are not careful enough of their hats.
They stretch them out of shape with "big
heads" or fill them with "bricks.' Thesenator
who is most careful of his hat viii be most
likely to see that no harm befalls his country.

ofthe scenes aha arranging the drop
curtains, the play was produced in a
very ereditable manner. The music
by the Salina Orchestra was excellent,
especially the selections from 'Mika-
do" The Fourth Regimental Band
furnished some very nice music, for
which the CLUB return thanks. The
attendance was not large, the weather
being unfavOsabls, and there being
also other entertainments on the same
evenings. Arrangements will be
made 70 produce another play in the
near future, when with the excellent
talent they possess, the Dramatic Club
hope 70 give the people Of Salius an
entertainment wen worthy their pat
ronage.

been born in Tophet or Topeka, aud
educated by the d-uce. There was q
naturalness about the plantation

that made them popular. The
Ethiopian with the big mouth could
have made q whole flock Of chickens
tremble by once dropping his jaw and
exhibiting his worries In fact there
was nothing above his shoulders but
lips, teeth and = hole. All present
appeared to think they were getting
the full value OF their money, and
when the curtain dropped on Eva in
heaven, the audience retired in per.
feet order without attempting 10 in

heavenly scene.
