A Correct Account.

To the Editor of The Dispatch:
want to express my appreciation both OF
the correctness of the statements made (as
understand the subject) ard the literary
style embodied in the article on the gold
cure for the drink habit. on dipsomania
signed "M.' in last Sundays DISPATCH. 1t is
by all means the ablest one of the many ]
have read and will be productive of i'm
mense good as well as proving intensely in
teresting to all students of the subject or
even the general reader" I am gratified
that so much can be claimed and convinc-
ingly though temperately and conserva-
lively claimed for the Kelley cure, and that
the ranks of our Pittsburg graduates con-
tain the ability to put the matter SO bril-
liantly and forcefully before the public.

THE LITTLE THINGS.

The little things that hurt us day by day
The unkind words our dear ones sometimes say!
The times they fail to see we do our best
When understanding not, with merry jest
They turn aside, while we are craving SO
For sympathy! To them our grief. our woe
Seem childish-all unworthy of our years!
When they grow quickly weary of our tears!
These 'lttle things have missions they should
teach
Us, how hearts with faitlifulness should reach
Into our dear ones hearts! Eternally
Striving to comfort them! Always to see
The best In them-to kiss their tears away.
These are the lessons they should teach each dayi

In an article whic. undertakes to mini

miles OF railroad i'll t',e United States rx.ead
the actual cost by S.ra3 tss9 oil, the average be-

Press has omitted to study that outburst of
frankness on the part of Poor's Manual a
few years ago which asserted that half the

EXAMINATION of the Ohio vote indicates
that the Democrats did not poll their full
strength. Ex-senator Thurman may be
right in asserting that the free-coinage reso.
luton injured Governor Campbell. But is
it certain that the free-trade attitude of the
party did not do the same? 1t is to be re-
membered that Ohio went the same way
last year when the tariff was an issue and
silver was not.

A LOT of German students in Heidelberg

A LOT OF German students in Heidelberg
undertook to run the theater to suit them
selves by bowling down whatever they did
not ike, until they finally got the audience
to howl1ng at them. The result was that
the city and university authorities have ex-

edlct, that If the students cannot behave
themselves at the theater they must stay
away from it, is a way of making the punish

FRIDAY MORNING. IAN. 80, 1891.

The Elections Force Bill received anoth-
Ell check in the Senate on Tuesday. The
closure rule introduced to aid it, was laid
aside by vote Of 35 to 81 to take up the
Apportionment Bill. The Republican Sen
ators who aided the Democrats were
J. Don Cameron Of Pa, w. M. Stewart
and J. z. Jones of Nevada, Ii. NJ. Teller
and E. O. Wolcott of Colorado, and W. ID.
Washburn of Minnesota, by their votes,
Leland Stanford of California, by absence,
and John j. ingalls, of Kansas, by a pair
with another Republican. 1t is noticeable
that in this vote Messrs. Plumb Of Kansas,
Paddock Of Nebraska, and Pettigrew of
$ sS5ottff Dakota, all three of Whom have in
the last month spoken against and once
voted with the Democrats to obstruct the
Force Bill, were all back and in line with
the Republicans again.
This check of Tuesday is so seriously re-
garded that the steering" committee of
the Republican caucus-Senators Plumb,
Eyarts, Hoar and Sherman, has arranged a
future order of business t. be taken up this
way after the Apportionment bin is finish
ed--i,ill for claims under the Eight Hour
Law, Copyright BILL Indian Depredations
claims bill, Paddock s pure food bill and
the Nicaragua Canal bill. But it is well
understood that if any favorable opportu-
nifty shows they can do it. they viii rein
state the closure rule, and Senator German,
the Democratic manager, and Senator
Faulkner, the Democratic ''Whp" are on
the look out for it.
In the meantime, the field outside OF the
Senate isn't so bright for the Force Bill as
last week. The Tennessee, Arkansas, Ala
bama, South Carolina and West Virginia
legislatures have adopted resolutions not to
appropriate money to represent their States
at the Worlds Fair at Chicago if the Force
Bill passes; the legislaturessof New York,
Illinois, New Jersey and Indiana are all
considering similar resolutions; the legisla-
ture OF Nebraska has adopted a resolution
endorsing the laying aside of the bill, and
popular meetings against it are beginning
to be held. This will go far to strengthen
those Senators who have already taken po
stion fully as against the bill-eyen
against the efforts of President Harrison,
now open and active-to bring them back
into line.
Still we must not assume that the Force
Bill is dead nor that it's advocates have
surrendered.
