POSSIBLY PARSIMONIOUS CON
GRESS.

The first session of the Fifty-second
congress will without doubt be one of
economy, approaching unto parsilnony,
in dealing with new propositions for
spending money.
Every congressman, however, will
have pet project which he will hope to
push through, the pressure for ex-
penditure therefore being even more
diversified than heretofore and it is
even possible that an understanding will
be reached whereby the Democratic
members will be able to favor their con-
sitituency with public Improvements,
while the Republicans .willno come in for
general consideration.
The Missouri river towns which have
for years been scrambling for the I'M
provement of the Big Muddy, will soon
send representatives to a meeting at
Kansas City called by the commercial
club of that city, where an organized
movement will be formulated to make a
raid on congress for the benefit of the
river and harbor appropriation bill.
The object is to make determined stand
against the alleged encroachment of the
sea coast cities on the appropriation for
waterway improvements, and the result
of such an experiment is to be much
doubted. Probably the outcome will be
to cut down the appropriations almost
universally and thereby give the present
congress the name of being parsimoni-
GUS TO degree that would be unpardon

John G.. Whittier and Oliver Wendell
Holmes are the last survivors of the
group of eminent American poets that
fourished in the first half of the nine
teenth century, and included Longfel-
low, Bryant, Emerson, Poe, Lowell,
Halleck, and several others. Whittier
was writer as early as 1929, and ten
years afterward he was the editor of an
anti-slavery paper in Philadelphia, the
office of which was burned and sacked
by mob. In 1881 he appeared as a
poet, and during the sixty years that
have elapsed since then he has composed
many poetical works that are familiar to
the reading public. ''As a poet" says
one of his eulogists, whittier is more
peculiarly American than any other of
equal fame"

Most people were of the opinion that
Mills of Texas was convinced that he
was a failure as a tariff reformer, but he
is said to be preparing a new bill to
present to congress as soon as it meets.
This, however, may be given out as a
sort of coup, to aid him in his speaker
ship contest. A large contingent of his
party do not want any tariff tinkering
by the next congress, and they may hope
to prevent it by bottling Mills up, so to
speak.

THE SUGAR INDUSTRY.
From the Fort Scott Monitor.

From the Fort Scott Monitor
It would be seen that the Lawrence
Journal insists upon demonstrating TO an
absolute certainty that it knows nothing
about the sugar business. In the first
place, speaking for the Monitor, we de-
sire to say that no attempt has been
made to prove to the farmers that the
sorghum industry is a success. The
problem is one which does not interest
the farmers to a greater extent that it
does other people. If the Journal has
been so anxious to know the truth, the
figures have been easy to obtain as well
as other facts connected Herewith. The
sugar works at this place have made the
present season of first sugar about half a
million pounds, which has been profita-
bic business. The farmers who have
furnished the cane received 50 a ton
therefor which is as cheap as they can
afford to grow it and deliver it at the
mill. The sugar company, however,
could grow and deliver the same cane on
land adjacent to the mill at 1925 per
ton.
The works here have received no SUBJ
sidv, other than the national and state
bounty, and when the manufacturing of
sugar is spoken of these bountles are al
ways taken into consideration for the
reason that it has been the policy of the
national government to protect the sugar
interest in some manner for many years.
The writer had frequent talks with men
who have made the study of sugar chem
Istry lifetime work, and it is now a
settled belief among that class of men
that the development of the next five
years will enable the American people to
produce their own sugar in competition
with any other country in the world.
The fiippancy with which the editor of
the Journal calls halt in the develop
ment of the sugar industry is a clear in
dication that his associations with Jerry
Simpson have had their evil influence.

According to Bulletin No. 1913, issued
from the census bureau, the total capital
invested in the fishing industry in the
United States amounts to S2,0S1, $780,
The total product landed in 1889 was
valued at 81, S34, 551. The total number
of persons engaged in whale fishing in
the world is put down at 3,017, of whom
1902, or nearly two-thirds, are citizens
of the United States. The bulletin com
prises eighteen pages. mostly tabulations
of the whale fishing industry and cover
eriag every detail connected with it, but
most of which, while showing a large
amount of painstaking research, is of
little or no interest TO the average citizen,
who cares only for results in the aggre-
gate. From the amount of noise and
contention made over the fishing interest
one would have supposed that it was
many times the magnitude, in the
amount of capital employed and num-
Der of persons engaged as shown BY
the census report.

From the Troy Times
y Bob Burdette tells a good story of the
Rev. LYMAN Beecher, father of Henry
Ward Beecher, told originally by his son.
The elder Beecher had been preaching
one Sunday at Litchfeld, and as he got
into the carriage TO go home he re-
marked that he had never preached such
a poor sermon before. ''Why, father,
said Henry, Il never heard you preach
louder" ''That's it, responded the old
man; "when have nothing to say | al
WAYS holler."

The total amount of taxes levied on
railroad property in Sumnar county for
the year 1891 is a little more than
$40, 900; sufficient amount to reduce
the taxes upon the individual property
of the citizens to the minimum. Sumner
has the greatest mileage of railroads of
any county in the state.

Speaking of technicalities of the law,
murderer in Chicago was released
from custody few days ago because
the grand jury. in indicting him, insert
ed in the bill for the murder of Frank
Long," instead of saying ''for the muir
der of man supposed to be Frank
Long" Had the man stolen a sack that
was supposed to have contained flour he
would have undoubtedly have been
living of prison fare now, even though
the indictment stated positively
that the stack did contain -four. Thus
it is that justice is almost as often de-
feated of its ends as it succeeds, through
mere technicalities of the law.
