The Young Widow.
From the Ne,o York Mercury.

EFO" tIhc 4fctO IOTb 1dCTCuFHs
She was modest, but not bashful;
Free and easy, but not bold;
Like an apple, ripe and mellow
Not too young and not too old.
Half inviting, half repulsive;
Now advancing and now shy;
There is mischief in her dimple,
There is danger in her eye.
She has studied human nature,
She is school9d in all the arts;
She has taken her diploma
AS the mistress of all hearts.
She can tell the very moment
When to sigh and when to smile;
oh, q maid is sometimes charming.
But widow-all the while.
Are you sadi How very serious
Viii her handsome face becomel
Are you angry? She is wretcbed,
Lonely, friesdless, fearful, dumb
Are you mirthfull How her laughter.
Silver sounding, Will ring outI
She can lure, and catch and Ylay you
AS the angler does the trout.
Ye old bachelors of forty,

But know little wi low

Fair Didn't Want a Fenale.

Taking advantage OF the funeral train
carrying the remains Of the late Senator
Hearst to his last resting place in Calf ernia
is one OF the latest exhibitions of the
barnacle spirit so prevalent among politici-

seemed to regard that train simply as a
lucky opportunity to haul homo their fami-
lies free Of cost. So they crowded in re-

Senators George and Walthall, Of Missis-
sippi, are candidates for reelection. The
legislature which meets next January will
elect their successors, and the senatorial
campaign has already begun. The cam
didates for the next legislature will be
nominated during the coming summer and
the election will lie held next fall. IL is not
improbable that ia many Of the counties
there will be an alliance candidate and an
anti-alliance candidate.
A number of the sub-alliancss have
adopted resolutions declaring that they
will not support any candidate for the legis-
lature who does not stand squarely on the
Ocala platform. That platform contains
the sub-treasury scheme.
There are no stronger men in the state
than Senators George and Walthall, but it
is by no means certain that they will secure
a reelection. They have both written let
tiers stating that they cannot vote for the
sub-treasury scheme. And Senator George
opposes other propositions of the alliance.
He says that in his opinion the SUBJ
treasury plan is unconstitutional, because
the constitution does not delegate to cons
gress or the government the power to lend
money or to engage In private business, and
the government would have to do both of
those things IL the sub-treasury bill became
law. But he not only thinks the sub
treasury plan unconstitutional, but also
that il would prove to be injurious to the
farmers And in his opinion it would ipjure
the country because it would be so expen-
sive that it would bankrupt the treasury.
He tells the farmers that the plan would
bring disaster and financial ruin to them,
because il would interfere with the laws of
supply and demand, which alone can regu-
late prices.
There is no doubt that Senator George is
sincere in the expression of his views He
is a very pract cal, honest and straightfor-
ward man. And he is a sincere friend of
the farmers. He is ready to do whatever he
thinks is for their interest, but he would
rather sacrifice all chance of political sue
cess than to adopt o course which his iudg-
ment condemned
There are prominent men in Mississippi
who are in accord with the alliance. But it
is fact that many alliancemen in MsSis-
sippi are not in favor of the sub-treasury
scheme. And there are many in
other states. In fact, the sub-treasury
scheme is losing ground with alliancemen
who do good deal of thinking. BY the
time the senatorial election in Mississippi
occurs there may be enough alliancemen in
that state in accord with Senators George
and Walthall to insure their reelection.
Better and ADLER men to represent the state
in the Senate could not be found.

a Bad z accrd-

In speech at dinner in New York q
day or two after the adjournment Of
congress ex-Speaker Reed spoke in enthusl-
astic terms OF Whist the FifJy-first congress
had accomplished. 1t seems that neither
Mr. Reel nor any other republican member
Of that congress is willing TO permit the
people to form their own judgment OF the
record which that congress made. If the
record was suc1 a good One-a record Of
which the Republican party IS proud-the
republican leaders would simply point TO 1t
and tell the people 20 form their own opIn-
ions Of it. Instead OF doing that they are
continually explaining ard saying that
when it is fully understood it will be aI-
proved and commended.
No one is likely to rget that at the be
ginning Of the Fifty-frst congress Mr.. Reed
said that he was going to make the congress
business one. The impression which he
meant to convey was tina. all the important
measures would be gwen careful con-idera-
ton, ard that there would be no hasty and
crude legislation. But vas the Fifty-first
congress a business onei Mr.. Reed ad-
mitted after the adjournment that g
greater part Of its work va, political, and,
he might have said with truth, partisan.
The amount of money that was appro-
priated wa, as nearly as has yet been found
out, sl,OC6. T2O All. The average amount
appropriated by the eight preceding con-
crosses was sT09, 113 400 and the Fifty-firs
cons ress exceeded this average $500, OOO, 900.
1t is not to be wondered at, therefore, that
the republican leaders are anxit us to ex
plain its record and are persistent in asking
a Withholding Of the public judgment for a
time. They want a chance to agree upon
some explanation Of such an ext aordIra Y
distribution of public money that will seem
TO be reasonable. There is only one ex-
PLANTATION, ana that is that the Fifty-fTss
congress was unprecedently extravaganza.
In each preceding c. ngress a statement of
the total amount Of the appropriations was
obsainAble Immediately after adjournment
No exact statement Of the amount appro-
priated by the last congress has yet been
made, and Is not likely to be for some time
yet. Just before adjournment the chair
man Of the Senate committee on appropri-
atoms was compelled to state that he had
not had time to figure up the amount of the
dPpI OPil as4ohs' OuS tAat he "0ulo uO 30 as
soon as possible.
The truth is the Fifty-frst congress was
not conducted on business principles. AL
most at the very end of the session the
most important OF the appropriation bills
were still pending, and they were rushed
through at the last moment. Doubtless
mistakes will be found 10 them. Very
grave mistakes were found in the bill for
the relief of the supreme court a day before
congress adjourned.
The Fifty-first congress will be regarded
as an extravagant one-a congress of
schemes, jobs and partisan legislation.
The republicans may say what they please
in defense of it. but the people will not be
anxious for another like it
