Washington Letter.

WASHINGTON, d. c.. July Sd, 1886.
MEssRs EDITORS 1T was our good for
tune to drop into the Senate gallery few
evenings since in time to, hear our worthy
Senator Hales remarks on the Legislative,
Executive, and Judicial Appropriation Bill,
which was then under consideration. and we
wanted to hurrah for the man who could say
what he wished to without ''beating about the
bush" an hour wasting words enough to build
a new edition of Noah Webster's spelling
ulty of expressing himself so clearly that
people of ordinary understanding can tell what
he means without consulting their dictionary.
His distinct utterance, and calm, earnest, de-
sound logic, quite won our admiration. If
some OF the other Senators would copy his
example in terseness of speech we venture to
say the Congress would be ready tor an ear
lier adjournment than now seems probable,
but, too many of them are over-fond of pro-
longing their remarks, forgetful that "brevity
is the soul of wit" and oft times of wisdom.
To us it seems that the great demand of the
present time is more men who have this fine
ability of boiling down" their great thoughts
into few well chosen words, as life is too
short and time too precious to be wasted on
long drawn arguments when short ones would

Senate. viz, thirty-three to twelve proved the
growing sentiment in its favor earnest effort
is still needed to wake up the non-progressive
democrat to the demands of the age.
Improvement seems to be the order of the
day il every part of this fair city. Elegant
homes are in process of erection on various
streets. The site for the new library has at

historic Potomac from Washington to Airing
ton, q memorial bridge in honor of our la
mented President Lincoln and Gen. Grant
We predict that few more years of active
industry, backed by the means go generously
dealt out by our Congress for these purposes,
will bring to full fruition this alreaky marvel
lous ombinstion of art, science and genius,
making the Washington of the near future to
out-rival the most famous cities of the Old
World. The Spirit of Progress has set her
seal on many earnest faces, and when the
mind of man is fully reused to action. there
is no telling what great and mighty achieve
meuts he will win. If the mo, ale of this
great centre of our nation can by christian
influence be kept from becoming poisonous,

The facts and logic of the Ranney re-
port on the Pan-Electric scandal are so
strong that the mugwump Boston Herald
admits them. The Herald says:
The report is admirably clear and irresisti
bly, strong in its analysis of the evidence and
in the conclusions which it draws from the
same. Ii is as plain as anything can be that
the stock was placed in the hands of the Sen
ators and other public officials concerned with
a view, in the first place. to sell the rest up
on the strength of their names, and aitvr-
ward to secure their influence in validating it
through the help of the government twas
not known at that time, of course. that there
would be democratic administration, of
which Mr. Garland would be made the At.
tornev. General. But when the latter event
happened the directors Of the scheme sought
10 use, and as a matter of fact did use, the
machinery of the department of public jus
tice to promote their own private and per-
sonal ends This is the scandal of the affair,
to which the Attorney General and the Solicit
tor.General appear to be wholly insensible-
an insensiblity which the President, uufor-
tunately, seems to share.

A party bearing the name of Taxpayers
ought to be pretty good party. But names
are often deceptive and they would seem to
be in this case if the Belfast Journal does
not exaggerate. At the recent election in
that city there were two parties the Tax
payers and the Tax-reducers, and the Jour
nal says of the former that ''its methods
from first to last have been simply infamous
"a disgrace to our city and an offence against
common decency and citizenship 1t
alleges that the "Ku Klux of the South were
never more murderous and wicked at heart
or less regardless of law" and that the
Democratic ring of Hamilton county, Ohio,
in its unblusl1ing frauds against the fran
chise, did not enter upon such crusade of
obscenity, blackguardism and falsehood as
that pursued by this unprincipled Taxpayer
ring" As the Taxpayers threw little
more than half the vote at the election, the
inference would seem to be that Belfast is a
very wicked place.
