A Stenographer's Difficult Task.

Rochester Post Express.
Secretary Blaine has at last secured
a stenOgrapher competent to take the
proceedings of the international mari
time congress.in French and English,
and willing to work for less than $1,000.
III. A. Playter is his name. He arrived
from New York to-day. accompanied
by two copyists, one for French and one
for English. He is not only required
to report the proceedings, but at the
end of each speech to translate it into
French or English, as the case may be. SO
that delegates not acquainted with both
languages may yet follow the discus
sions intelligently. The task Mr.. Playter
has undertaken is said to be the most
difficult that ever fell to the lot of
stenOgrapher.

Many Fine Bags Being Amassed
in Northern New York

A special from Watertown. N. Y, to
the New York Times says: Plovel
cartridges and squirrels are plenty this
year throughout this part of the state,
and many fine bags have been made by
sportsmen from this city and elsewhere.
One gentleman has killed thirty-nine
gray squirrels since the season opened.
Another brought down four partridges
one morning this week, and was out of
town only about three hours. One thing
stands in the way of successful part
ridge and squirrel shooting at the pres
ent time, and that is the dense foliage.
There has been no frost and the leaves
remain as thick on the trees as they
were in June. At this time of the year
cartridges make their homes in the thick
underground and briar patches that
fringe the big timbers. In such places
they are hard to get, and it is next to
impossible to secure wing shot.

Luxurious Travelling.

The progress in railroad construction
is not more marked in any direction
than that which pertains to the safety
and comfort of passengers. What is
more wonderful than the present
method, under which travellers find as
many cOnveniences and. as much COM
fort on railroad trains as i'm their homes?
The Northern Pacific Railroad has al
ways been among the first to adopt i'm
pr0vements in train service, and their
Vestibule Trains, consisting of elegant
Pullman SleeperS and Day Coaches, are
models of excellence. Nothing could
be more enjoyable than trip over this
line, passing as it does through the
grandest section of the West.

WILLIAMSBURG, Va, February 10, 1889.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
You published in your issue Of Sunday,
February Sd, a statement from your Will
liamsDurg correspondent that the death rate
at the insane asylum at this place Tor The last
year was less than ii Ind been Tor ten years.
also tnd in the report OF that institution
for 1898 the following on page D: lou
mortality list has been smaller this year In
proportion 10 the number treated than
in any wear for the last ten, except IN 1879,
and actually sraler than in any yeat except
1888. 1881, 1880, and 1879, when the number
of patients was less-in the latter year one
fourth less than now"
On pages 26 apd q OF the same report we
find the actual figures. II will be seen that
In 1888, the only year the asylum was under
the exclusive management OF the Republi'
can authorities. the percentage OF deaths
was actually less than for any year except
1879, aud that the number OF patients pres
eut was larger. both rs TO average and total
number treated, thln IN 1888. The whole
number treated In 1888 exceeded the whole
number treated IN 1893 by eighty-slx. The
average number treated In 1888 exceeded the
average number in 1888 by nineteen. aud the
number at the end Of the year In 1888 ex'
ceeded the numuer at the end OF 1888 by
ffty.fve. The deaths In 1888 were four less
than in 1888, and the percentage OF deaths
in 1888 WAS. TO all under care, l.92 less than
Ia 1888.
In justice to myself and those who were
associated with me / present these figures,
taken from the last report Of the Eastern Lu
natc Asylum. They speak for themselves.
Compare them with the claim in the text OF
the report quoted from page 5. ] ask that
you will do me the justice TO publish them.
Respectfully, RICHARD A. WISE.

The South Always Wrong.


We read once the following story: b'-
tie girl was passing near her mother, but
not within the same room, when the mother
Incurred, ais that YOU, my childf" and the
little innocent replied, -" NO, it's me-" she
blundered in her language, but her reply
ought to have cut to the heart the mother
Who bad made such a distinction between
her two daughters as to occasion one OF
them 10 consider herself unworthy OF KIND
word from the tbouEhtless mother. This
story was brought TO mind by the following
paragraph from the New York Herald:
awe have no doubt that irritation at the
great predominance OF southern men on The
Democratic side OF CONGRESS and at the main
tensnce Of a solid Democratic South bad 81
much 10 do with the defeat Of Mr.. Cleveland
"a the tariff: perhaps more. Certainly II ~
a curious fact that the tsrif discussion did
not weaken the party in the manufacturing
States. 10 was 10 the agricultural West trst
the Democrats lost OF did not gain rs they
had reason TO hope from the vide spread
Of tariff. reform sentiment among the farm-
ers. But this was no doubt doubt due TO
the other fact that In the West and North
west the Traditions OF the war linger ana
are more lively THAI In the East, and the
solid Democratic South gives more offence.
Among the farmers Of Iowa. Minnesota, Kan
sas, Nebraska, Illinois, Michigan, and Wis
consin dislike OF southern rule Is feeling
which oyercomes their hostility TO high and
injurious tariffs"
Isn't It strange that nobody charges the
North with the offence that Is here unjuslly
charged to the SOUTH Never since the war
has southern man been elected either
President or Vice. President OF the United
States. Whist sort of "predominsnce is
tbstf Why have all southern men been
prescribed for this long period OF time +!
How utterly unconscious the northern peo-
pie are that they have thus In any degree
wronged their southern brethren Is indi-
Gated In the fact that neither TO the Herald
por TO any northern paper which has copied
iis article did II occur that II there Is
one thing more notable than au>
other IN the history OF this country
70 f. that there has for the last
twenty years been such "predominance Z"
Of northern men as has reduced the
South 10 the condition OF poor relation.
We have been wronged and outraged until
we not only do not expect but we do not
even ask for justice at the hands OF our
northern brethren. All we ask or expect Is
not 10 be further wronged.
There are many proofs Of the fact OF the
long-continued and uuiustihsble "predomi-
nance" OF the North in Congress, 10 the
executive departments, In the judiciary. In
the army. in the navy everywhere In the
wide world indeed where an American Office
Il held; but we will not reete those proofs.
The single fact first above stated is coDclu-
sive OF the question.

The Proposed Increase fu Ctty Taxes

they are hard working set OF men who
