been a brilliant one, and his friends
may we'll feel proud of the record

sible for man in his position and
under recent political changes to
please everybody, yet Mr.. LaFollette
has shown himself TO be strictly

desirious of doing right by the

No one questions his ability. In

that is required to command the at
tention of statemen and vet this has
been done with remarkable success
by both Spooner and LaFollette
previously as well as recently. Mr..
LaFollette's support of the Nc
Kinley bill was mastery effort of
over two hours, during which time
scarcely a memb left his seat.
Mr.. LaFollette's campaign work
for his party, not confined to his
own district, has been telling in a
marked degree. His watchfulness
for the interests of agriculture in
all its departments and for western
industries generally shows we have
the right man in the right place. We
believe if the republicans of the
third district stick to Mr.. LaFolette
and keep him where he Is that will
he soon convince them that he is
tirst-class senatorial timber. His
popularity is national now. Who
knows but in this man the state of
Wisconsin may some day furnish
the United States with a president.
The opinion prevails that if we
stick to LaFollette our district and
state will be incaIculable gamers.
Mr.. LaFollette has the ability.
Money has not put him where he Is.
Give him the experience aud he will
take rank with Carlisle, Randall,
Blaine, Colfax and Garfield.
Wisconsin has never yet had a
speaker of the House and but one
president pro TEN of the Senate.
Give LaFollette a chance and like
Carpenter there are no heights to
which he is not liable to climb. To
assist him in all this his habits are
in his favor. Time and experience
coupled with his ability will develop
Mr.. LaFollette into a great man"

WASHING TON LETTER.
From our regular correspondent.
WAsHINGToN. d. G., May %. 1890

WAsHiNGTON, ID. G., May ~, 1890.
The President, like everybody
else, is glad that the House has dis,
posed of the troublesome tariff
question. There are two other
things which the President wishes
to see done before Adjournment; one
is to pass pension bill, and the
other TO provide the means for
carrying out the recommendations
of the recent Pan-American Con-
gress relating to closer commercial
relations between the United States
aud the countries of Central and
South America. AS a starter in the
latter direction the President this
week sent q special message to Con
gress asking that the amount estl-
mated as the quota of the United
States of the expense of making
the preliminary survey of the pro-
posed rans-continental railway be
appropriated. This railway is one
of the grandest projects of the age,
and prominent engineers have ex-
pressed the opinion that it is entire
ly practicable. TO build it would
make a fitting close to the nine
teenth century, the most remarkable
hundred years in the history Of the
world, and it's beginning at this
time will make the Harrison admin
istration occupy a proud place in
the pages of American history,
The conference committee having
charge of the two pension bills,
which have respectively passed the
House and the Senate, have not yet
reached an agreement, but the
spirit of the discussion has been
such as to remove all doubts Of an
early agreement, This is disap-
pointing to nobody but the demo
Gratis who are opposed to pension
legislation Of any kind.
The Vice-President, on Wedues-
day presented to the Senate the

Stealing a Seat in Congress.

1t is quite probable that the seat
of Clifton r Breckenridge, the
bogus Arkansas Congressman, will
be declared vacant by the House.
lie was undoubtedly defeated at tn e
polls in 1888, and John NJ. Clayton,
the Republican candidate, should
have been declared elected. But
the rascally canyassing officers de-
cIared that Breckenridge had the
majority Of votes and the Demo
cratic Governor, doubtless elected
uy similar fraudulent practices, CAV
him the certificate of election.
Clayton, the candidate who received
the most votes, while investigating
the frauds committed for the benefit
of Breckenridge, was assassinated.
1t was one of the most atroci0us
crimes ever committed against the
franchise and the laws.
Breckinridge, with an impudence
that is unparalleled except in similar
cases at the south, took his seat in
Congress. There was nobody to
contest his claim. Clayton had
been murdered. But there was cause
for examining into the facts of the
election and the subsequent murder.
A committee of the House was sent
to Arkansas to investigate the facts
They haYe prepared their report,
which declares that four methods of
vllliany were practiced in order to
make 1t appear that Breckenridge
was entitled to a certificate of
election:
"First-The substitution of Democratic
tickets for Republican tickets by the election
judges, either before the ballot handed to them
by the voter is dropped into the box or after
the box is opened for the purpose of counting
the vote.
"Second-The placing of pastors upon a
Republican ballot while it is in transit from
the hands of the voter to those of the judge
charged with the duty Of depositing it.
''Thrd-The taking out of Republican bal
lots and their destruction at the time of the
count, or the adding unfortunately of Dem
ocratic ballots.
Fourth The voting of dead men or absent
or former residents of the precinct
These frauds having been still
inadequate for the purpose of show.
ing an apparent majority for Brock
inridge, the ballot-box at Plummer-
Vile, having a majority of hundreds
for Clayton, was stolen, making it
impossible to canvass the votes.
If Breckenridge had not been
brutality without sense of decency
he would not have claimed the seat
of Clayton after Clayton's murder,
Bat he has occupied it ever since,
disregarding the stain of blood upon
himself from the suspicion that he
is not without guilty knowledge
of the means by which Clayton's
assassination was accomplished

speakers will be Governor Beaver,
Representative Breckenridge of
Kentucky and Governor Campbell
of Ohio.
Postmaster General Wanamaker
is trying TO persuade his able assist
ant, Mr.. Clarkson, to change his
mind about resigning this summer,
but SO far Nj. Clarkson remains
unshaked in his determination to
leave the government service. Mr..
Clarkson is now at Boston where he
went to deliver an address before
the Norfolk club.
Senator Stanford has introduced a
bill embodying his ideas of the
solution of the agricultural problem.
1t provides for the establishment in
the Treasury department of a land
loan bureau, which shall be inn
powered TO loan on inincumbered
agricultural land one half Of its
assessed value at the rate of per
cent per annum, no loans to be
longer than twenty years. The idea
has more advocates out of than in
Congress, and there is not the
slightest probability of its becom-
ing law during the life of the
present Congress.
Senator Blair has begun a crusade
against the lotteries. He wants a
constitutional amendment adopted
prohibiting any state authorizing
anything in the shape of lottery.
Chairman Mckinley has received
congratulations from all quarters
for the able generalshio he displayed
in the management of the tariff
bill; not single amendment pro-
posed outside of the committee was
adopted, and only two of those
which came from the committee
were defeated-those affecting jute
and wool. This was a remarkable
showing, but more remarkable still
was the fact that when the final vote
was taken, only two republican,
Coleman, Of Louisiana, and Feather
stone, of Arkansas,-yoted against
the bill which passed by a vote Of
1875 to 1872. Democratic predictions
of republican revolt in the House
having SO signally failed they have
begun on the Senate.
The House will settle one or more
of the contested election cases
which the committee have ready be-
fore taking up other legislation.
Senator Ingalls, thinks ten years
undisputed possession of real estate
should give a good title to the same,
and he has introduced a dill to that
effect.
Silver and the Original package"
questions as represented in bills be-
fore that body have taken up most
of the Senate's time this week.
1t has been stated at the Capitol
that the President had said that he
would not sign silver bill passed
with the help of democratic votes,
but that be would willingly sign a
bill passed entirely by republican
votes, and in short he will, accord
ing to this story, only sign bill
that caught a republican majority in
both House and Senate.
Ex-Speaker Carlisle has been

The Milwaukee Coal Company
has declared thirty-seven per cent.
dividend This il company or
gained by men interested in labor
movements, principally Knights of
Labor, who combined in order to
get cheaper coal The business
turned out so profitably that the
idea of cheaper coal has merged
into one of profit earning, and now
the concern has joined the innumer.
able caravan of coal dealers who
have no further interest in cheaper
coal. Sometimes it depends on
which side a mans bread is buttered.
The New York importers are
making a strong fight against the
Mckinley tariff bill. This is quite
natural. Importers are by interest
aud instinct free traders. 1t is their
business to keep home protection
down to the lowest ebb and import
atoms up to the highest flow.
Everything manufactured at home,
which otherwise would have to pass
through their hands as importers,
interferes so much with their bust
ness. The biggest bonanza they
could have would be the total sus-
pension of American manufacture
and the importation Of everything
consumed in this country. These
importers endeavor to enhance
foreign trade by constantly Guilt
waiting taste for foreign fashions,
foreign goods, foreign manners and
everything that has a tendency to
disparage originality and national
independence. 1t is question
whether the American people desire
to surrender all the independence
they have in industrial, social and
national affairs for the benefit of a
lot of Broadway and South street
middlemen.
