Washington Letter.
From our regular correspondent.

WASHINGTON, d. G. Mar, "a, 's9-
EX-Speaker Carlisle thinks the
Lodge Federal election bill one Of
the most Objectionable measures
ever before Congress, and consid-
ers that it would be practically inn
possible to hold legal election
under its complicated provisions.
In speaking of the bill Mr.. Carlisle
said, "Suppose we do little flgur-
ing on it to start with. If this bill
was a law there would be at each
of the 10000 election precincts of
the country, at every Congression-
al and Presidential election, seven
Federal off fisials, making total of
100000 men, and costing ten or flf-
teen millions of dollars every two
years. This estimate is based on
the present number of voting pre-
cincts, but the complications of
this bill would make the process of
voting such slow one that the
number of precincts would have to
be largely increased, perhaps
doubled, in order to give the voters
an opportunity to deposit their bal
lots" The bill has not been much
better received by the Republicans
than by the Democrats.
The Blair educational bill is
dead. But the Senator has come
up smiling with another bill, this
time the appropriation is only $5S,
100000.
The Republicans of the House
don't vote as they talk in contest
ed election cases. The Democrats
were led to believe that seven or
eight Republicans would not vote
with them in the case of Mudd VS.
Compton, but when the vote was
taken Mudd got the solid Republi-
can vote and the seat.
There are four contested election
cases in which all the arguments
have been heard, and it is expected |
that the Republicans of the com
nlittee on elections will try to rail-
road them through this week.
A favorable report has been
made to the House on the bill pro-
viding for the appointment of
commission to investigate the liqu-
or traffic.
So general has been the COM
plant against the paper used in
the postal cards that the Post-office
department was compelled td get
after the contractor, and that indi-
vidual has promised to use gbetter1
quality of paper hereafter.
The House has passed the annual
pension appropriation bill. II was
for 500. 100000, and every man who
voted for It knows that 1t il not
enough, and that there IL bound to
be big deficiency vt the end of
the next fiscal year, bnt that does +
not stop the demagogues from get
ting up and bowling for additional
pension Legislation. One Of them
in n speech advocating n service
pension said, as cody ss If he was
speaking oftmying an apple. that I
the total r0staof sucha bill would T
hot exceed se4s,00o,ole. ~

The same thing is true OF the railroads
which would be most affected by this COM
petition with such ship canal. AT first
they would suffer, but the great growth OF
the traffic which is already in sight and
which would come more quickly under the
stimulus of low rates. would. in q compare
lively short time, equalize things. AL
ready it is evident thar if anything like the
increase in the lake ore and coal business
during the past five years be maintained for
the next five, the railroads running from
Pittsburg and the Maboning Valley to the
various lake ports cannot handle the busi-
ness with their present trackage. Either
new roads or more tracks for the old will
have to be built.
This, remember, is what is likely to be
necessary by the time the ship canal would
be open for business, if the increase of the
last few years is maintained as it seems
likely to be. 1t is apparent, therefore, that
the railroad interests would not greatly
suffer, nor for very great length Of time.
The natural development of the ore and
coal traffic, and of the iron and steel inter-
ests of Western Pennsylvania and Eastern
Ohio will make large increase in the
tacilities for carving freight between the
lakes and the upper Ohin Valley impera-
lively necessary longtbefore another decade
has passed. That the ship canal would
provide in the best possible manner, aud
the result would be not merely local but q
national benefit Of no small moment.

All these facts concerning the lakes are
particularly interesting when taken in con-
nection with the project of building ship
canal from Pittsburg to Lake Erie. The
immense traffic that passes between Pitts
burg and the Lake Erie ports makes such
q canal entirely feasible as a commercial
enterprise. 1t is not greater undertaking
than some Of the other great canal projects
that are under way, while there already ex.
lists great and growing commerce ready to
support it and be fostered by it. Last year
nearly 1,3Oo, 900 tons of coal were brought
out of Plttsburg for lake export and hun
dreds of thousands of tons more are added
from points that would be within easy reach
o. the ship canal.
The tonnage this wear will lie larger than
last. Cleveland will send over 1000, 600
tons of coal up the lakes this season. Fair
port will add 150 900 or more, Ashtabula
500. 900 more and Erie several hundred
thousand. All told, the lake shipments

The Lawyers Logic.

To the Editor of The EVENING STAR:
Away up in the Green Mountain state live n
landlord and q tenant. The landlord owned n
pretty little place. worth about g, 600. with a
coy cottage, nice garden and play ground
and little spring of water affording scant
supply for family use, except in a wet season.
The tenant took lease of this little home
stead at $500 year. After a while the land
lord conceived the idea of improving his prop
erty by well, and he entered into a contract
to pay $1,000 to dig and wall the veil with a
bountifUl supply of water and to restore eyery-
thing about II III good condition and to secure
prompt work and fidelity i'll the fulfllment he
advanced the amount of the contract The con-
tractor went TO work, destroying the tenants
garden, tearing up his children's play ground
and completely draining the spring of water
Then after II was nearly dug out he threw up
ms contract, leaving deep and dangerous hole
close by the family residence.
Thereupon the landlord notified the tenant
that the rent thereafter would be increased
500 to reimburse him for the expense incurred
for the well-that the failure was merely a mis-
take of his such as all landlords are liable to
make and that thenceforth the tenants children
could play on the street and that his family
could 90 TO their neighbors for water and to
the market for their garden vegetables
The tenant consults Lawyer EdmundS and is
informed that such is the law and that he
ought to rejoice TO get rid Of the mistake of his
landlord so easily; that in a similar case down
IN Washington the poor water takers who had
long been struggling against a water famine
had to pay an additional Sl.00O 900 for n still
more aggravating and serious blunder of their
irresponsible oppressors. sec.

TWO MEN DROWNED.
After Long Struggle They Give Up
and Drop Into the Water.

John Murray and William Travers were
drowned off Gales fishing shore near the
mouth OF Worton creek, Maryland, Monday
night Capt. William Vane, with Murray, a
fisherman, and Travers, farm hand living on
the farm of Mr.. John Gale, started out in a
fishing boat and were struck by a heavy gale.
The boat successfully weathered the blows until
within about mile of the shore off the
mouth OF Worton creek, when it capsized.
Murray and Travers hung on to the center
board, while vane chung to the rudder iron.
All would possibly have gone well had not the
boats anchor gone out and kept the boat from
floating ashore with her three helpless occu-
pants. Murray and Travers became exhausted
during the night and dropped off and were
drowned. Capt Vane, after a terrible exper-
fence, succeeded in securing position on the
boats bottom and cut the anchor rope and the
boat drifted until the mouth of Fair Lee creek
was reached, when he was picked up by Fisher
man Tanker. The bodies of the two drowned
men have not been found. Murray and Vane
were from Melitota, but Vane, during the fish
ing season, lives in a shanty on the shore at the
mouth of Worton creek. Murray was unmar-
ried, but Travers leaves wife and three small
children.
