A SHORT STORY
OF a Tramp. Blown Here by thu
Blizzard.

A tired tramp took possession of the
quarters beneath the U. P. water tank
yesterday. He was not an invited guest,
he simply walked in and took charge.
There was a fire burning there, and it was
much nicer and warmer than facing the
icy blasts outside that cut like keen knives.
That was the tramp's opinion as he sur
veyed the interior. He entered and made
himself at home. When the railroad
lads minated to him, that he had better
take a walk, he simply said -
"Not by a damn sight"
1t was a brief speech, but it was accom-
panied by an ugly, sinful look which
chilled the young blood of the railroad
men, who were good Sunday school boys,
and not at all accustomed to such aowery
language. They consulted together, as to
the best thing TO be done under the circs,
and finally sent up a delegation of one to
Marshal Schnitger, to invoke the aid Of
the law. The Marshal heard the tale
of the railroad man and said in his brief
~incisive way IAN right. Sullivan you
go down and yank him out"
Sullivan went down, and inserting his
hand in the tramp's collar. yanked. The
next minute, the tramp found himself
outside the tank house, sprawling on his
back. Sullivan examined his subject.
and relieving him OF a pistol and a razor,
led him away to the calaboose, where he
will lie until Judge Lee has an interview
with him this morning.

'sThose whom the gods would de-
stroy they first made mad" The
sugar tariff is distinctiyely reve-
nue. tariff, but the great body OF
sugar planters are determined to
to force it upon the country as a
distinctively protective tariff, and
if they succeed, it will share the
fate of the whole protective sys-
tenn, which Is doomed to overthrow
within the next few years. Per-
haps, the most absurd thing the
Sugar Planters' Association could
have done was to solemnly thank
certain Louisiana members of Con-
gress for voting against the con-
sideration of the Morrison bill
This is a free country and when a
particular class as its represen-
tatives attempt to suppress even
the discussion of an irrepressible
question, touching the daily lives
and dearest interest of 6O,O00,0O0
of people, because q particular in
terest is involved, they become their
own worst enemies. Neither the
Sugar Planters Association, nor
'the four Congressman" nor Mr..
Randall, can suppress the tariff
question, and common sense should
teach all whose interests are in
volved to come out and meet the
inevitable, and defend end preserve
those Interests, not by attempting
to suppress discussion, bat by an
open, free and full presentation
and discussion Of their merits with
a view to a final settlement OF the
disturbing issue. IN. @. States.

Gov. McEnery has sent the fol-
lowing circular to the tax assessors
in the several parishes:

Sn-The General Assembly at the late
session appropriated only $15. 900 for the
payment OF clerks Of registration. This
Is not sufficient to pay full salary OF said
clerks. The clerks appointed must
therefore accept the Office with the un-
derstanding that they will receive only
their pro rata of said amount appropri-
ated. call your attention to section 36
Act No. 123, approved April 10 1880
You will see that the appointment Of q
clerk il for the convenience Of the asses
sor will make application for q clerk I'M
less one is absolutely essential. At the
present congressional election thee Is no
new registration to be made and elections
have been 20 frequent in this State that
there is little to be done, only revision
Of the registration and the registration
Of those entitled to vote who have not
heretofore been registered. A due con-
sideratlon for the State and in the interest
OF economy win suggest the improperly
Of an application for clerk except IN
case where it is absolutely necessary
that one should be provided. Evidence
of this, in the form Of an affidavit, must
accompany each application.
