Parrots That Statesmen Listened To.
From the St. Louis Republic,

For more than q year the members of con-
gress and others who make practice of walk
ing down Pennsylvania avenue from the capitol
were greatly interested in q celebrated parrot
wfteh used to do some remarkable talking as
he sat perched in cage in front of a bird store
near Third street. When that bird was less
than a year old he was so apt at mimicry that
its owners refused $lC0 for the poll. 1t could
sing nearly the whole of the chorus to "Peek-a-
Boo in a splendid voice, could sing in a per-
feet manner a snatch or two from the popular
song, I'm Dude. a Dandy Dude" and say
ever so many things, such as "Ah, there girls -
Pretty girl, "'He's a masher" etc Newsboys
who stopped in front of the store would cry out:
Paper this evening - aud the parrot had been
taught to say, Not this evening, some other
evening"" The famous bird loved to show of,
and passers by had lots of fun listening to him
from day to day. and finally the owner of the
parrot got $3.50 for him. The congressman
miss him.
The other day crowd of capitol frequenters
were discussing the merits of this bird and re-
GREETING he had been sold, when some one
wanted to know if parrots could really think.
I'm positive of it, said Col. Virgins the
printing clerk of the House. Il remember
years ago when Washington was a smaller
place that some boys were stealing cherries;
from lot near where lived A parrot which
my neighbors owned saw them, and bawed out
loudly to a colored woman in the kitchen:
Liza. Liza, boys stealing cherries You may
not believe this, but it is fact
Col. Virgins didn't tell this yarn late at night,

such things of course do happen, but"
"Stop, putting me. know they happen all

here and speculate and lose their money, and
then rob their employers and lose that, too.

States in the Near Future.

Assuming that the next congress will be
republican in both branches, and there does
seem to be much room to doubt that it will
be. among the first Of the more important
things it will do will be to admit the terri
tories of North and South Dakota and
Washington into the union as states There
is no doubt that South Dakota and Wash
ington have the requisite number of inhabit
tants, and that in time they will become
great and rich states. The bill admitting
South Dakota has been twice passed by the
senate, the last time in April of this year
1t is by no means certain that North Da-
kota has as many inhabitants as the law re-
quires for admission, and there may be a
doubt whether it will ever become thickly
populated. The conditions there are not
favorable to great prosperity, or at least
they are not thought to be. The territory
has grown very slowly in comparison with
South Dakota.
The republicans. however, will be in
fuenced to some extent by the advantage
to them politically of the admission of all
of these territories. They will all be re-
publican states, and will give the republi-
cans ten additional votes in the electoral
college.
South Dakota and Washington would
have been admitted some time ago, if there
had been no objection to the admission of
New Mexico and Arizona, which are demo-
cratic. 1t now looks as if the latter terrific
ries would have to wait until the democrats
get into power again.

Cen. Harr,son,s Southern Policy.

Gen. Harri5On's southern Folcy.
The probable course which Gen. Harrison
| will pursue toward the south is receiving at
tention from the pres in all parts OF the
! country. 1t would naturally be supposed
] that SO soon after a republican victory the
tone of the republican press would be
aggressive and threatening when discussing
this matter, but such is not the case as a
general thing. A few of the most ex'
IRENE of the journals have INDUCED in
little bloody shirt talk, but the ma
jority of them do not favor
an extreme policy. The Cincinnati
Comm ercidl- Gazette, for instance, which
has always discussed southern political mat
ters from an extreme republican stand
point, contained the following the other
day: "Shall we then rush to force the states
of the solid south into the rude settlement
of the most difficult of all questions, that Of
races commingled on the same soils No.
Let the southern states gradually follow the
example of old Virginia, where manhood
suffrage is almost, and soon will be alto
gether, established" This is a virtual adj
mission that the days of bloody shirt poll
tics are over.
There are indications cropping out that
Gen. Harrisons southern policy will be
very conservative one. The Indianapolis
Journal. Gen. Harrison's home paper, con-
tanned an editorial article day or two ago
which is believed by some TO express his
views. 1t was stated, however, that the
article was not inspired by Gen. Harrison,
and that he had not been consulted about
it, but there is ground for saying that it
would hardly have appeared in the Journal
if it had not been believed that it contained
his sentiments.
The article, in effect, stated that there
was strong protection sentiment IN some
of the southern states, and that among the
protectionists were some of the ablest of
the southern men. Gen. Harrison will aim
to make this sentiment the basis of the re-
publican party in the south. He will seek
his supporters among those Of the leading
southern men who are protectionists, and
will make his appointments to the principal
offices in the south from among them.
If this is Gen. Harrisons policy, and If it
is faithfully carried out, it will doubtless
do more to build up southern Republican
party than any other he could adopt. While
the protection sentiment in the south is not
strong, some of the best men in the south
are protectionists-tha is, they don't want
any part of the present tariff in which
they are interested disturbed, and in order
that the part in which they have an in
terest may not be disturbed, they are
ready to object that any other part shall be.
At present there does not appear to be
any reason to apprehend that Gen. Harri-
sons administration will be unfriendly to
the south, or that the Republican party
will propose any legislation that will be
aimed directly at the southern states
However, it is impossible to say now what
the Republican party will do when it is in a
position to act, and it is the duty of south
ern democrats to be watchful of the inter
ests of their section.

Mr.. James G.. Coogan, who was the labor
candidate for mayor of New York, has re-
pudiated politics, and has turned his atten-
ton to burglars. His first venture in their
capture line was successful. While sitting

worldly uncertainties, he heard noise in
the hall, as OF some one stumbling over a
chair. He got to the spot in jffy, and capt

THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER "A. 1888.
Money! In Elections.

| In conversation with some friends the
other day Mr.. Quay, the chairman Of the
republican national committee, is reported
to have said that the political campaign
that had just closed was the most expensive
that was ever conducted in this country.
He declared that the cry was for money
from the beginning to the end of it.
1t is reported that Mr. Brice, the chair
man of the democratic national committee,
made substantially the same statement
during the campaign. He is also credited
| with saying that the cost of conducting
presidential campaign is steadily increas-
ing, and that the cost of the next one
will be about double that of the one this
year.
The statements of these two chairmen in
dictate that the morals of the people, so far
as politics is concerned, are in a very bad
condition. The money for campaign pur-
poses must come from either assessments of
office-holders or the pockets of the rich men.
If the office-holders are assessed, they will
neglect their duties, because they will ap-
prehend no danger Oh being dismissed. They
will depend upon their political contribu-
lions to hold their places, however ineffi-
Gent they may be. If the rich men furnish
the campaign funds, they will do SO only on
the understanding they shall have legisla-
tion that will promote their interests.
There is a certain amount of legitimate
work that must be done in a campaign, but
il is a kind that does not cost great deal.
When money is put directly iuto the hands
of the voter, however, vast sums are needed
to accomplish anything worth speaking of.
In the campaign just closed there is not
much doubt that the republican national
committee had an immense sum at IT'S dis
posal, while the democratic national com
mittee could not get anywhere near the
amount it could use in an hon est way. In
fact, Mr.. Quay is reported as saying that
his committee was seldom in need of money,
as the contributions were bountiful.
What did the republican committee do
with the money it received There is a
widespread belief that it used some of it to
corrupt voters The circular letter that
ayas sent to Indiana, and which had Col.
Dudley's name signed to it, supports this
belief. 1t contained a clearly outlined plan
for buying the floating voters and promised
all the money needed for carrying it out
A reform IN the method of conducting
presidential campaigns is certainly needed.
Every citizen who is interested in honest
elections and good government should be
heartily in favor of such reform. The
number of voters who will sell their votes
will steadily increase if the practice of buy
ing votes is not abandoned, until. finally,
it will be large enough to determine the re-
suit. When that time arrives if party
can control enough money it can remain in
control Of the government as long as it
pleases

Poor's Manual for 1888 contains an opin-
ion that within ten years the last iron rail
will have disappeared from the American
railroads, and the figures given seem to
bear out the assertion. In 1880, 10 per cent,
of steel rails was used; in 1881 the per cent
was 371s in 1882 it was Az; in 1888 it was
52sl in 1884 it was 571S; in 1885 it was 81 {;
in 1886 it was 62S4, and in 1887 it was 6s, 1t

rails will be decreased in this progressive

1t seems strange that Mary Anderson
should have enemies in this country. Some
years ago, the public was advised, in letters
to some of the New York newspapers. to
remain away from the performances of Miss
Anderson, because, as the writers charged,
she had become English. Now the same
tactics is being used against her. Anon
ymous correspondents state that she has
ceased to be an American, that she affects
an English manner, and wears an English
or Scotch ulster, that she does nothing that
is American, and that she has returned to
this country simply to coin money, after
which she will return to England. A study
OF these attacks seems to show that they are
in the interest of other actresses who are
making American tours. Our Mary" is
not likely to be injured by them
