SOME progress towards agreement
npon the provisions of the senate tar
iff bill appears to have been made
during the week. The bill has been
considered in caucus, apparently with
satisfactory results, and the announce
ment has been informally made that
the bill will be reported on the 10th
or 1lth inst. The subjects in refer
ence to which it has been most diff
cult to reach an agreement are the
sugar, wool and lumber schedules
1t appears to be settled that the bill
IN process of preparation will cut the
sugar tax down so per cent, will leave
the lumber duties as at present. and
will increase the duties on the finer
grades OF wool lc. per pound.

"The amount Of Oratory that is being
thrown into the campaign IS enormous,
said a Democratic Senator coming in
from New York yesterday. "Thoro
can't be less than 10000 speakers on the
stump this year. They are Il terrible
expense. The stump speakers who
don't charge for speeches are few and
far between. A great many of the men
are poor and couldn't afford to give
their time, and travelling to small, out
of-the-way towns, where good speech
always has the most etl'ect-is disagree
able undertaking. Thisyea the speak
crs are demanding more than ever be-
fore. At this rate, it is doubtful WAeth-
er or not enough money will be left in
the treasury Of either patty to pay for
carriages to take lazy voters to the polls
on election day. A million Of money
can be spent for oratory by either party
at the rate things are going.
Of the Republican and politically
neutral government clerks, only those
borne upon the rolls as from the District
of Columbia arc even passably happy
these days. The momcntous question
Of whether or not they shall 80 home to
vote in November, faces the rest. #
they 90 home and vote for the Ropub-
lican electors and the Democratic can
didates arc elected, vengeance dire will
be certainly visited on their devoted
heads. If, on the other hand, they do
not 90 home and vote and the Repub-
lican candidates are elected, the wrath
of their friends await them So, in the
beautiful language of some bard, the
government clerk on the fence is at
present lowering between Satan and the

During the spring of 1871, while working
in the field at my home in Morgan county,
Ga pulled off my shoes to give my feet a
rest. Unfortunately, | walked into a clump
of poison oak, and in a few days my feet
were in terrible condition, and could not
put on a shoe because of the soreness and
swelling. | was treated as poison oak cases
usually are, and everything was healed up.
About the same time the following spring,
1872, my feet became sore again, as at first,
and every succeeding spring for five years
brought back the same condition of the dis
ease. only each time it became more dis

feet with defiled water and defective

IHsMRNifOsA SURVEY.

80
a Line s4ocnted winch. is Nesriy an Air
Line aud Presenting u aEssltau n Grade
OF Gnty Twenty-0ne Feet.
The survey Of the Sioux Falis-Ysnk-
ton extension of the anitoba railroad,
conducted under direction OF W. T..
Darling, of the Manitoba engineer de-
partment, will be finished Friday. Mr..
Dariing's labors have resulted in o route
which could not be improved upon in
any country. The air line distance
from Yankton to Sioux Falls is sixty
miles and the surveyed line secured by
MIR. Darling is sixty-two and o%ne.quarter
miles long only two and o quarter miles
greater than an air line route. The
maximum grade in the ~sixty-two and
one-quarter inises is twenty-one feet to
the mile and over most of the distance
there is scarcely any rise and fall. To
secure this short line and easy grade Mr.,
Darling has taken time. though he has
labored necessarily and with the wisdom
OF an engineer thoroughly versed in his
calling. He has spent most of the winter
on the work, but has secured q route
which must be entirely ac-
ceptable to the Manitoba manage
ment. The requirement was q thirty
foot maximum grade, which the Manito-
ba never exceeds in its building opera
tiops, This requirement MIR. Darling hes
met and improved upon. His work has
been submitted so the chief engineer by
sections and approved, SO it will doubt.
less be accepted by him as a whole and
adopted as the route of the Manitoba to
the Missouri.
Much has been said by outside news
papers relative to Ysnkton's interest in
this survey, end much that is not true.
AT this time Yankton has no explana-
tions to make. 1t knows what it is about
and will be in q position later on to give
particulars. 1t 10 very much gratified
over the success OF the winters work. It
has q supurb route ready for the graders
and q bridge charter ready for the bridge
builders. 1t hae not been so nearly asleep
as some OF its detraotors have alleged.
Regarding the southwestward progress
this road nothing is definitely know
beyond the fact that it is designed as a
connecting line between Denver and
Duluth. The summer will probably
develop much of interest which 1t would
now be premature 10 o~utline.
