Washington's Financial Troubles.
Even General Washington, though the
richest citizen of the United States, could
sometimes scarcely make both ends meet
In March, 1889, just before going to New
York to be inaugurated, he borrowed
5000 of Richard Conway, of Maryland,
to whom he wrote: AEever till within
these two years have / experienced the
want of money. / am now inclined to
do what never expected to be driven
to-that is, to borrow money on interest.
Ten years later august II, 1899 he
wrote TO his nephew and clerk, Robert
Lewis, that he must change his system Of
farming or do worse. Something must
be done or shall be ruined; for all the
moneys Gin addition to what I raise by
crops and rentsl that bave been received
for land, sold within the last four years.

has made me resolve, if it can be accom-
pIished. to settle plantations on some Of
my other lands. He did not live TO
effect this, for he died four months later.

In the retirement of Ingalls, the
United States senate loses one of it's
most interesting and picturesque fig
ures. He is not a statesman and his
career has been barren of useful results,
but he will be missed by the galleries to
whom he afforded pleasant relief from
the depressing intellectual sogginess
with which the atmosphere of the
chamber is pervaded. The rejection of
ingalls, in a state that has a normal re-
publican majority of $4,000 would con
vey an impressive moral to most men,
but the meaning Of it will be lost on
the brilliant Bohemian jayhawker who
has always assupled that other people
are as insincere as himself.

WlTH Senators Cameron, Teller, VOL
colt, Jones, Stewart, Washburn, Stan
ford and ingalls, on record as against
setting any limit to debate, there is no
prospect OF passing the force bill
through the senate. The republican
majority or d straight party vote is
fourteen. The detection of the eight
republicans above named leaves the
supporters Of the force bill two votes
short. Even should the death of Sena-
tor Hearst occur it is doubtful if the re-
.publicans can hold their vote and drive
the closure rule through by the aid of
ce-President Morton's vote. Public
sentiment is doing it's deadly work on
this infamous measure and it is steadily
growing in popular disfavor. The ac-
ton OF the legislatures of New York,
New Jersey, Indiana, Wisconsin, Ten
nessee, Alabama and other states, in
proposing to withhold appropriations
for the Worlds fair, if the republican
usurpers at Washington persist in
their course, is an extraordinary demon
stration of public sentiment, which
must make an impression upon wen
the most case-hardened partisan. Will
men like Farwell and Cullom, of Hi
nois, continue to pursue a course that
will hopelessly wreck the great enter
prise that Chicago has undertaken?

THE attempt of a little gang Of repub-
lican marplots to defeat a legislative
compromise on Tuesday night by mis-
representing to Senator Goddard, the
republican arbitrator, the demands of
the republican house caucus, was
promptly exposed yesterday and de-
nounced by a majority of the republic
can representatives as a piece of knav-
ish trickery. Senator Goddard was in
formed that the republicans stood by
their agreement and he was authorized
to continue the conference with Sena-
tor Thornton for the purpose of COM
plotting the arrangement for the fusion.
The republican representatives who
have acted honorably during the nego-
t~iations owe it to themselves and their
organization to expose the scurvy fell
lows who so nearly defeated the desired
contamination.
