by Judge Wall for Congress, in

with the disadvantage of having to
contest district in which there
was, if not a majority against him
in political sentiment, at least the
prestage in favor of the opposition
of having been twice in succession
represented by Republicans, He
had also to meet the unfavorable eff
iects of an animated and excited
contest for the nomination, which
had not been so fully reoonciled as
to accord him that cordial support
a different state of case would have
recured to the Democratic candi

did not publicly accept the nomina

Senator Beck on the Situation,
lLexington Press.1

Meeting Senator Beck, we took
occasion to ask his views on Ma
tional politics, when he expressed
himself substantially as follows;
~ see no ground for apprehen-
sion in the vote of last Tuesday.
The losses, notably in Kentucky
and Virginia, were due solely to
overconfdence, want of organize
ton, and personal pickering among
Democrats, while the substantial
gains in New Jersey, New York,
Connecticut, Massachusetts, New
Hampshire, Minnesota, Colorado,
and California give assurance of
increased Democratic strength in
these States, which will not fail to
be felt in future contests, Nor do
/ see anything to discourage the
champions of revenue reform. In
deed, reductions of taxation can
not be longer posponed,on any pre-
text however specious. The sur
plus revenue ia so great that all the
| three per cent. bonds will be paid
off before next July, There is idle
money enough in the Treasury to
pay them all off now, None o.
the Others can be paid before Sep
tcmber. 1891, and only $250,000, 00(
then. The $751;, 100000 of four pei
cents are not payable till 1907
Therefore we must either lock w
the surplus revenue, which is nov
coming in at the rate of 150,000,00C
a year, the reipts being 1890, 000,00t
and the expenditures $240,000,00(
and locking up means bankrupt

wasteful extravaganza, or we mus

them, which is simply robbing tn,
taxpayer to enrich the bondholder
or we must reduce taxation to thu
wants of an economically admins
ed government, in order to proven
the further accumulation of surplus
money in the Treasury.
ut must, / think, be apparent t.

NEW YORK, oct. 30.-Twenty years ago
the name of David Patulo was familiar
10 every New Yorker. and to day there
are thousands who remember the eccen-
trio old ScOtchman, whose stubborn su-
perstitions and peculiar humors rendered
him so famous when he lived. David was
the first proprietor of "Cobweb Hall" at
80 Duane street. The whiskles he import
ed from Scotland and Ireland were the
best to be obtained in the city, and who
ever was DESTROYS Of slipping genuine
Hot Scotch" resorted to his place. He
soon gained a wide reputation for this
smoky beverage, so that many OF the
prominent lawyers, politicians, mer-
chants and journalists Of his day were
among his patrons. Here James 7. Brady

Hap was in those DAYS a very different

Patullo had strange superstition con-

tap room is clean ana handsomely ap-
pointed, the shelves are dusted every few
days, and one need not be in constant
dread OF swallowing spider with his
beverage. In the apartment back of the
tap room, however, the conditions remain
the same as IN PatullO's time. When the
place was renovated by the present pro-
prietors this little room was left sacred to
the spider. CObwebs cover the walls and
