WASHINGTON LETTER.

Sam Randall and chairman
Mills have locked horns for fight
in the House that bids fair to make
the last two weeks of the fftieth
congress long remembered. The
question at issue between these
two eminent Democrats is the
neutrality-suspicious.. Mr..
Mills, from the committee on
Ways and Means, has reported
the Senate substitute for his tariff
bill to the House, accompanying
it with a resolution declaring that
the Senate bill is unconstitutional,
and directing the clerk of the
House to return it to the Senate.
This Of course is just so much
CANNON, and the only means that
the committee will oppose the
Senate bill in every way possible.
The progressive element of the
Democratic party, under the lead
ership of Sunset Cox" joined
with the republicans and instruct
ed the House conferees on the
Springer "Omnibus" bill, to accept
the Senate amendments dropping
New Mexico and striking out the
provision providing for another
election in Dakota. This will
make the bill provide for the
admission bypresidential prOclama-
alton, Of North and South Dakota,
Montana and Washington, and
unless something now unforeseen
shall prevent, the day IS not far
distant when four new stars shall
be added to our national flag, and
the Senate chamber will have eight
new desks used by good republic
cans.
The new Secretary of Agricul-
ture, Norman J. Colman, was
promptly confirmed by the Senate
and took the oath Of office Friday.
Mr.. Colman says he contemplates
no changes; he will leave that to
the Secretary that Gen. Harrison
shall select to preside over the
destinies of the new department.
It is fortunate thing that we
have had no war since Mr..
Edincott has been at the head Of
the War department. He is
entirely too fast for this slow
going age. For instance; some
time previous to the presidential
election, the Senate passed a
resolution calling on the Secretary
of War for information as to
circular order sent out prohibiting
the employment Of republicans
under that department. He has
just answered that resolution. He
says the department issued the
order; and that his only reason
therefor was to give the places to
Democrats. And yet some Demo-
Gratis call Mr.. Edincott
mugwump.
Senator Spooner has introduced
has introduced bill providing for
a system Of Farmers Institutes,
in various sections Of the country,
under the control Of the Agricul-
tural department. The institutes
are to give instruction, furnish
illustrations by lectures and
discussions, make experiments and
in fact, to endeavor in every
manner to enhance the value of
the farmers land and products.
If properly conducted, these insti-
tutes would be Of great benefit to
the farmers of the country.
Senator Teller says he will not
be a member Of the Cabinet; that
he has no desire to leave the
Senate, nor has he been asked to
do SO. This is plain language for
plain man, and efectually
removes Mr.. Tellers' name from
the slate.
No one claims that it is good

IA seemed as II a hand inspired,
wa sending forth those chords of tone
The blended music Of the woods,
The oceans roar, the surfs low moan,
The song Of birds at summer morn:
And sounds with angel voices fraught:
Telling the end of Winters death.
Raising new life In heart and thought.
The bilowy waves OF music rose.
Then broke with ripping chords TO meet
The anthems notes; and voices clear,
With rhythmic grace, rich, full and sweet,
Arose with harmony divine

The Lori of ali. the Prii &c OF Peace.
Who could not In the grave abide;
Who had the victory over death.
And on this day had risen again;
Blessed anchor Of the Christians hone.
Without this truth your faith Is vain.
Again the organ tones pealed out,
Their swelling chorus rose until
The air was filled with trembling notes;
And then with fainter chords We're stin.
All music. thou canst wake dead thoughts;
Qldmemoues pring back again;
Bring rest and pence t1 wearied minds,
And soothe heart Of bitter pain.
Make eyes long dry with tears be wet,
Wake strange emotions In the breast.
Drive evil thoughts away, and cause
Deep flooding waves Of tenderness.
Thy wonderous power Il not of earth.
Through All thy tones there breathes tn
breath
or silent voices, from n world
Fairer than this and beyond death,

a suitable pretext for bringing their country

JUST as we have said frequently the
Republicans Of the Legislature are sham
ming and posing for political effect
They do not want constitutional con-
vention. When the Senate bill providing
for vote on the third Tuesday OF May
came up yesterday they had an amend
ment ready. In the debate on the House
bill four weeks age, the argument Of the
Republicans was that the people wanted
the convention Immediately. They urged
through their noisy mouthpiece and gen.
eral director, that five years would
elapse before convention could be held
if the bin was rejected, and that the
people were toe urgent to wait Now
it seems that the people are
not 50 urgent for the same man says the
heretofore excited and enthusiastic peo-
pie win not hear Of the new bill and will
not have time to get ready to vote by the
21st Of May. The different arguments
kill each other. Either the people want a
new constitution or they do not. If they
do they win show interest enough to 90
to the polls and vote for it. If they are
not as excited and super-charged as the
eloquent representatives pretend, they
will not vote There is not nook or
corner in little Delaware where the
news Of the new bill cannot be sent and
where its merits may not be discussed

new constitution they are nevessaril,

minds are fully prepared to decide the
question at once. If this is not the case
why all Of this fussg The people can
have convention any time they demand
it by majority. If they do not demand
it, they are presumed not to want 1t. II
the Republicans were not simply posing
they would accept the Senate bill which
provides Tor a convention that they we're
recently in such a hurry for.
