SENATE

SENATE.
WASHINGTON. Oct 3-Mr Allison, from
the committee on finance, reported back
the house tariff bill with an amendment in
the nature of a substitute. 1t was placed
on the calendar and ordered to be printed.
He said that majority and minority re-
ports were to accompany the bill and
would be fled tomorrow or Friday and
gave notice that he would call up the bill
for consideration on Monday next.
Mr.. Sherman said he would be compelled
to leave the city this afternoon and would
like to be INDUCED in making few re-
marks on the tariff bill. Unanimous con-
sent was given and lie addressed the sem
ate. He complimented the subcommittee
on the work done and severely criticised
the house bills. In his judgement there
would few defects found in the senate
substitute 1t would be found to be very
perfect bill. Among other things it was
for the collection of internal revenue
and of custom duties. 1t con-
tanned a positive reduction of
revenues to the extent of Sa3, 6SS, 000
The reduction was on few articles. He be
heved that the senate bill was on the
whole the best revenue bill ever intro
duced in congress and that if il could be
considered and debated and amended, 1t
might be made the most perfect revenue
measure ever put on the statute books.
The issue was now fairly made before the
people and was 10 be tried by them. II
was plain, fair, square Issue between u
tariff for revenue only and a tariff for
revenue and protection. 1t was aqueStIon
whether the articles necessary for human
life would be made by American labor or
by foreign labor: whether the wages of
American laborers should depend on the
wages OF European laborers, or should de-
pend on the American policy of protecting
all forms of labor and production.
The senate then resumed consideration
of Mr.. Hales resolution of Monday call
ing on the secretary of war for an explain
alton OF General Benet's circular as 10 the
discharge of Republican employees in
United States arsenals and armOries.
Mr. Cockrell said that the last Republi-
can administration in its last year had
made more removals and appointments
within the classified civil service than the
Democratic administration had done in
about two years of its existence. II he
had been at the head of department
under the present administration, he
would have weeded out al the
incompetents appointed under the
spoils system ana would have
done his best that honest. competent
and well qualified persons, certified by the
civil service commission. were appointed
IN their places, and he would have prayed
that ninety-nine out of every one hundred
of them might be Democrats until there
were as many Democrats in office as
there We're Republicans. After that he
should have disapproyei Of any discrim-
ination on account OF politics. Mr.. Cock

The Original state of man.

In the cycle of phenomena presented
by the life of man the animal, no more
moral end is discernible than in that
presented by the lives of the wolf and of
the deer. However imperfect the relics
of the historic men may be, the evidence
which they afford clearly tends to the
conclusion that, for thousands and thou
sands of years. before the origin of the
oldest known civilizations, men were
savages of very low type. They strove
with their enemies and their competi-
tors they preyed upon things weaker or
less cunning than themselves; they were
born, multiplied without stint, aud died,
for thousands of generations, alongside
the mammoth, the urus, the lion and
the hyena, whose lives wele,spent in the
same way and they were no more to be
praised or blamed, on moral grounds,
than their less erect and lore hairy COM
patriots.
As among these, so among primitive
men, the weakest and stupidest men to
the wall, while the toughest and shrewd.
est, those who were best fitted to cope
with their circumstances, but not the
best in any other sense, survived. Life
was continual free fight, and beyond
the limited and temporary relations of
the family, the Hobbesian war of each
against all was the normal state of ex-
istence. The human species, like 9TH
ers, splashed and foundered amid the
general stream of evolution, keeping its
head above water as best it might, and
thinking neither of whence, nor whittier.

BERLIN, November 22.-The German
Reichstadt assembled to-day. Emperor
William opened the session. In his
speech he said the tours he recently
made convinced him that the desire fol-
Imperial unity was deeply rooted in the
people. He emphasized the pacific char
aetsr Of Germany's foreign relations and
foreign policy, and said his visits abroad
which had been undertaken with view
10 effecting an understanding in the in.
tsrests of peace, had caused universal
confidence in the maintenance of peace.
The Emperor made no reference to any
military bills or credits, and touched but
briefly pom the East African affairs.
The Emperor was frequently inter-
Yupted by warm applause while he was
reading his speech. The passages re-
Earring to the peaceful situation, i'm
p.ovement in trade and social legislation
were especially applauded. Upon the
conclusion of the Emperor's speech,
Herr Won B. ethcher, as the representa-
tive of the Chancellor, declared the
Reichstag opened.
When Emperor William entered the
chamber be was received with cheers, led
by Herr Won Buhl, Vice-President of the
Reichstag. AS he retired he was rendered
IN ovation, led by Count Won Lerchen-
feldkovering, the Bavarian Plenipoten-
tiary. During the opening ceremony the
Imperial balcony was occupied by the
Empress, the Duke and Duchess of Aosta
and the Princess Albrecht and her sons.
When the Reichstag settled down to
business the Budget was presented. 1t
balances at 949, ,103, ,907 marks. On the
expenditures S06, ,425 400 marks figure as
permanent, and 5S, ,554 ,615 marks as nom
recurring expenditures. In the extra
ordinary Budget it is estimated that the
revenue from taxation during the coming
year shows an increase Of twenty million
marks. The funds made over from the
Empire to the Federal States will be
fifteen million marks in excess of the
previous year. On the other hand the
ntricular contributions from individual
States to the Empire are increased
1895, 108 marks.
According to memoranda accompany
ing the naval estimates, several new war
ships will be built besides those now in
the course of construction. The addi-
tions will comprise four ron-elads, nine
smaller armored vessels, seven cor
vettes, four cruisers, two dispatch YES.
sells and two torpedo boats. The
existing war ships, the budget states,
are still serviceable, but becoming
unadapted to the times. 1t is therefore
urged that there be created a nucleus for
flrst-class ships of from 5000 20 10 900
tons. The expenditures under this head
are to be 116, 800, 900 marks, and to be
distributed over ten years. The increase
in army expenditures amounts to 7,OOO,-

And mad idea shot wildly through
The brain of her lover (who sat there too
That he, in that self same light canoe,
stolen kiss would take.
Now the maiden sat there. unaware
OF the plot that he had Matched;
And the mountain breezes played with her hair
And famed her cheek, and her brow SO fair
AS she sat there still, quite unaware
OF the kiss soon to be snatched.
Then the lover awaited a real good chance
To capture the long for kiss.
When, watching the whipping wavelet dance
she turned her head with quick, sly glance,
And leaning back, she gave him II chance,
That was really too good to miss.
SO he bent to meet her. and tried to steal
The kiss that he burned to get
But ne bent so quick, in his ardent zeal.
That the craft upset like whirling wheel,
And he missed the Kiss tnat he tried 10 steal,
And they both got very wet.
