Mr. Haas is a valuable man and l dis
like to lose him, but the Danville peo-
ple seem so much wrought up at the idea
of his leaving that | think L will
have to give him up, as l do not wish to
work against or injure them in any
way" So it may be put down as certain
that Mr.. Haas will not so with the Chesa-
peake and Ohio. 1t equally as true that
the Chesapeake and Ohio will not have

while the line will be operated as it was

MRS. FooDLEs IN THE SENATE.

Senator Blair is unquestionably well
meaning man, but it strikes us that he is
wasting large amount of earnest though
useless endeavor for the common veal.
His last effort being proposed constitu-
tional amendment placing an inhibition
upon the use of any money appropriated
by the government for educational pur-
poses for the support or in the interest OF
sectarian schools, is altogether uncalled
for, in view of the fact that such funds,
if appropriated would pass through the
hands of state officials, and there is no
state but has just such restrictions,
either in their organic or statutory laws.
And. besides, the senator, after persist
ent effort to procure an appropriation
from the government for educational
purposes, provided for in his famous ed
vocational bill. and falling, signally, dis
plays more zeal than judgment in press
ing his last proposition. lie reminds us
of the ubiquitous Mrs. Toodles who had
a penchant for attending auctions and
buying all manner of rubbish, from
brass door plate to watchman's street
box or second hand coffin, upon the idea
that something might turn up sometime
calling for the use of such articles and
then show handy it would be to have

The critical condition of Gen. P. II.
Sheridan. as mentioned in the dispatches,

for his welfare and hope for his recovery.
| General Sheridans career as a soldier
! has been one of the most brilliant that
/ has made the United States illustrious by
the production of military genius. Cen
eral Sheridan entered the army in 1858
aud succeeded to the command OF the
army in 1888. vice Gen. w. I. Sherman
retired, being its sixteenth commander.
In the event of his death the president,
who is, by virtue of his office, comman-
der-in-chief of the army, will be called
upon to appoint his successor. General

KEEPING THE EAGLE IN LINE.

To The Editor OF the Daily Eagle.
lin your editorial Wednesday, MAY %,
on How Prices are Affected you gave
expression to view that | really think
you did not intend. twas substantially
this: '"What the people want is reduc-
ton of taxation, no matter how il is
brought about" The EAGLE surely did
not intend to sanction the latter part of
this statement The whole force of the
tariff discussion has been upon the way
i'll which a reduction OF the revenues is
to be accomplished. Both parties are
agreed as to the necessity for reduc-
ton of the revenues, but they differ as
widely as the poles as to the manner of
its accomplishment. The idea of reduc-
ing the revenues regardless of conse-
quences, is free trade, unqualified. 1t
was embodied in Morrison's horizontal
scheme which was repudiated by the
last congress. The Mills scheme is OBJ
jectionable for reasons wildly set forth
in the speeches of Messrs. Randall, Reed
and 1IcKinlay. tits the chow to ac-
complish the desired reduction that
makes the great difference be-
tween the two great parties.
The EAGLE has been so thoroughly con-
sistent in its arguments upon this ques-
ton up to the present time that its
friends would regret to see it WAIVER, as
the above expression seems to indicate.
Perhaps some other meaning was in
tended. If so we hope to be set right.
