The authorship OF the celebrated phrase

The authorship OF the celebrated phrase
''innocuous desuetude," which occurred in
the Presidents message to the Senate in
the Duskin matter, seems to have been fin
silly settled as Mr.. Cleveland's own. The
phrase had been attributed by some to
Secretary Bayard, others thought that Col.
Dan. Lamont was the author, while Mr.
Blaine is said to have expressed the opin-
ion that Hon. Alvey A. Anee, Third As
sistant Secretary of State, was undoubtedly
responsible for it. The matter was how
ever definitely set at rest in the course of
the pleasant reception the President and
his bride gave to the newspaper men
at Deer Park recently, in the course of
which, one of the representatives having
brought up the question, the president
said in reply: They were my own,
wrote item without thinking how they
would sound On reading over the letter
1 said to myself, those two words will
make some fun, but they are not bad and
l will let them stand. That is all there is
to it."

Nj alters in Congress.

In the recent conference between Speak
er Carlisle and the chairmen of the princI-
pal House. COMMITTEES, the Speaker, it is
said, made strong appeal to the Demo-
cratic leaders to throw no obstacle in the
way of the consideration of tariff BILL
He said it would not do for the Democra-
tic party to disregard lis pledges to the
people On this subject. His remarks in
the conference appear to have had good
effect, and to induce some Democrats who
were inclined to kick over the party traces
to pause and consider. The legislative,
executive and judicial appropriation bill
will be out OF the way in few days; then
Chairman Morrison will endeavor to secure
the consideration of the tariff bill. There
will. of course, be considerable opposition
to taking 1t up, but Mr.. Morrison thinks
he will have majority of the House with
him on the question of consideration at
least. Another conference of the commit
tee chairmen will shortly be held, and it
is then thought that some plan will be de-
termlned upon as to the order of business
which can be carried out without friction
1t is recognized as a matter of course that
the appropriation bills shall always have
precedence and after them it is under
stood that the sentiment is to give the
tariff bill a fair chance to develop its
strength and prospects. Secondary only
to the tariff bill are the following meas
ures, which are all strongly backed, and
whose consideration will be demanded by
their friends: The Reagan interstate com
merce, the Dunn free ship, the Collins
bankruptcy bill, the Pacific Railroad fund
ing measure, the Miller and Bland cur
rency bills, the naval increase, the Holman
Indian Commission bill, the pre- emption
and timber culture repeal bills, the Blair
Willis educational bill, numerous labor
committee bills, the pension arrearages
bill, the Blair pension bill, the bill Great
ing the department of agriculture and
labor, the Eads ship railway bill, the Bel
mont consular reform bill, the Hawaiian
treaty bill, and the McCreary internationa
commercial convention bill.

High license has been effective in Mis-
souri, in reducing the number of drinking
places and in decreasing the drinking
habit. The tax on drinking places ranges
from $3.50 to $1,000 per year. In Illinois
high license has bad similar effect, the
tax 10 that State being $500 to $1,000
Besides lessening the evil at both ends,
the license system brings into the State
Treasury a larger revenue. 1t is believed
this system has been productive of more
real good than prohibition laws Of Kan
sas and Iowa in lessening drunkenness and
in relieving the distress caused by this
evil.

The Late John Kelly.

Few men were more widely known In
the political circles of this country than
the late John Kelly, whose recent death
was chronicled ia our last issue. The
chosen and trusted leader of the great
Tammany Hall organization of New York,
which yielded united and uuquestioning
obedience to his mandates, Mr. Kelly fol-
a long time was an important factor in pop
ular elections in the Empire State. Few
political leaders in the United States have
received larger share of censure from their
political brethren than did the Tam,
many chieftain during his life time al
the hands of the Democratic leaders oil
the country. 1t was frequently charged
that Mr.. Kelly used his faction as bal,
ance..of power IN the great pivotal State OF
New York to subserve Lis own personal
ends, and it was not unfreQuently charged
that he was not above a dicker with the
Republicans. 1t has been charged that
he was false to the Democratic ticket in
the last three Presidential campaigns,
that Tilden and Cleveland carried New
York in spite of Tammany, while Han
cock was defeated 10y the treason of Mr.
Kelly. These charges were always de-
MED by Mr.. Kelly and they were never
vel sustained by proofs. While it was
known that the Tammany leader openly
and Vigorously opposed Mr.. Tilden nomi-
nation, tie vote by which as the presi-
dental candidate ae carried rheState at the
election could not be reconciled with a
detection of that great faction. In the
Hancock campaign the charge of trading
off, the presidential ticket, made against
Tammany, came from the County Dem
ocracy," rival faction, with whom most
of the charges derogatsry to John Kelly s
political integrity have originated while
at the same time, it will be remembered,
that Mr.. Kelly retorted the same accuse
tien against the County Democracy. In
the Cleveland campaign, if anything were
proven by the returns, il was that while
Tammany remained true and polled
its full vote for the Democratic president
ial ticket, the County Democracy, Mr..
kelly's accusers, themselves proved trait
0rs and extensively traded off, the pre-
sidential ticket for the local municipal
officers
After all. perhaps, John Kelly was more
sinned against than SHINING, and no doubt
many of the political transgressions OF
Others were charged to his account. He
was a man of strong character and much
sagacity and had in him many of the
elements OF craftsmanship. In his private
life he was most exemplary, and no breath
of suspicion was ever cast upon his per-
sonal integrity. Tsmmany has lost its
great leader and With him it i. thought
much of its prestige and power

Hon. Barnes Compton made an able
speech in the House of Representatives on
Wednesday in reply TO a speech of Mr.
McComas cJticising the Democratic OBJ
servance of the principal of Civilservice
reform. Mr.. Compton. after refuring the
charges of duplicity made against the
Democratic party 10y his colleague, attack
ed the civil-service bill itself as an uncon-
stitutional measure, and argued at length
to show its undemocratic tendencies and
operation. Mr.. Compton made most
favorable impression on the House and his
speech was warmly applauded. We hope
to be able to give better report of his
speech in our next issue.

The excellent credit commanded by tn,
State of Maryland, says the Baltimore Sun
in the money markets is shown by the fact
that the exchange loan for 1886 for refund
ing the six per cent. Deaf and Dumb Asy
lum and Chesapeake and Ohio loans was
placed at three per cent, saving of ex.
actIy one-haIf in interest charges. The
last previous refundng loan for the three
million defense debt was placed at 3 50
two or three years ago. The States time
honored reputation among fnanciers for
promptly ho.oring her obligations has
been carefully guarded in recent years, and
it is gratifying to know that her standing
in the money market was never better
than it is to-day.

entucky, Nebraska, Wisconsin and Da- lip
winter and spring wheat crop. These re
ports are summarized as follows: TIL,
general prospects OF these crops, with tn,
exception of corn, are only favorable. Tn,
very fiattering situation upon the first o
May for spring wheat and oats has been
materially changed as a whole for tho
worse. This has been brought about by a
term of dry weather in the Northwest, ex-
tending over . period of three weeks
This drouth was partially broken by local
rains upon the night OF June /. The
drouth has been very severe also In Kan
sas, where the cat yield has been cut down
at least so ser cent. and in many counties
the oat crop is ruined. As regards win
ter wheat, the prospects are for an average
crop with favorable weather, but there are
40 indications of a full or excise crop.
The winter wheat crop of the country is
to-day very uneven and has run down in
condition and prospective yield during
the last thirty days. The harvest will be
twelve to fifteen days earlier than an aver
age season, and owing to the failure OF
the winter crop of 1885 the new wheat
promises to move freely and early, ire
spective of price. Some of the early vari-
cites of wheat have already been harvested
in Tennessee, Kentucky and Southern Lii
nols, but the harvest will not be general
before the 18th of June. So far as the
corn crop is concerned, at least 30 to 80
per cent. of the crop was planted late
This was owing to the wet weather of
May. The crop, however, has come up
well. The stands of corn, with the ex-
ception Of limited areas, are good, the
ground clean and the general prospects
for corn are encouraging.
The oat crop is also very uneven. The
very heavy rains early in May, followed by
hot. dry weather, have reduced the pro-
spective yield in many very important
areas of the country from 25 to 80 per
cent, and the oat crop of Kansas promises
now to be, if it is not already, practically
a failure. The country at present stands
10 need of warm weather and wide spread
and genial rains to counterfeit the bad eff
fects OF the cold weather of the last IA
days OF May, which for the present at least
threatens very materially to reduce the
yield of spring wheat and oats. The
grass crop of the country only in localities
shows any effect of dry weather At the
same time the yield per acre would be
largely increased by rains during the next
week

American ingenuity is rapidly
solving the cheese problem. We
already produce domestic Swiss
cheese which | consider fully equal
to the imported article, although
the latter brings 5 cents more in
price. The importation Of Linn
burger cheese is now very small.
Still, the importation Of foreign
cheese into this country last year
amounted to over $9500OO. The
principal foreign cheeses are the
Stilton, Cheddar, Cheshire and
Gloucester cheese, from England;
Gruyere from Switzerland. Rogue
fort, Camembert, Pont rEveque,
Frontage de Brie and Nsuichatel
fran France; Elam cheese from
Holland; Parmesa. from sgio Ro-
mans and Caccio Cavallo Nopoli,
from Italy. Stilton cheese is in the
shape OF cylinder, ten inches in
height and eight inches in diane
ter. tits worth IS cents per pound
Wholesale. Cheddar is similar to
factory cheese in appearance, and
is worth ~ cents. Both Cheddar
and Gloucester are fiat cheeses,
and are worth IS cents. Tho gen.
uihe Gruyere cheese comes from
Switzerland. although an inferior
article, is made in France. The
Swiss Gruyere cheese measures
three feet acr,ss. Four chceses,
weighing about $50 pounds, are
packed in . tub for expectation.
Swiss Gruycre is worth % cents
per pound.
Roquefort cheese is made from
the milk OF goats, ripened in lime
stone caves. Each cheese weighs
Eve pounds and is worth 35 cents
per pound. An old French gen.
tleman, residing on Staten Island,
owns a large herd OF goat and
