southerners in Washington.

Mr.. Lothrop, the Boston publisher, who has
been in Washington for several weeks, is a
shrewd observer says a writer in the New York
Tribune. He has been about in the various hos
pitaole houses Of Washington, and while here
has met many southern people. He says that
as entertainers they are the most charming
people IN the world. They have an ease and
grace and kndliness in their way of receiving
one which he admires. He says that 1t does
northern people good to como in contact with
the more easy-mannered people of the south
They learn to know each other better when they
meet in a social way. IL the disturbing element
OF politics could be eliminated, the two sections
would soon become firm friends, and both sides
would be the gamer MIR. Lothrop's comment
Is just one. The best southern people at
washington are noted for their characteristic
m .thods OK entertaining. In good southern
house there is never any ostentation,
any desire to overawe or impress guest with
display. The genuine southern host or hostess
seeks TO please in tbs simplest and surest way.
Inc southern people in society are easy In their
manners They are the best companions at the
dinner table at Washington. They tell the
qaalntest stories, and appear to have a keen
appreciation of fun. This In social way. In
politics they are altogether solid, and united
against the north, which is regarded always
with jealousy, and With the firm conviction that
IL should not be in the position of control The
southern people are ambitious to control this
country, as they did before the war, heard a
charming southern lady say the other evening
that the south ruled this country before the war
ana IL was their darling ambition to rule again.
She said:
I'VE are coming up now fast, and you will
soon see US where we were"
AS she is the wife Of one of the leading pod
tlclans OF the south, this remark means some
thlng. All OF the southern women are furious
politicians, and are even more ambition than
their husbands. When once the position of SUI
periority rs reached, then they will be as agree
able as need be to their northern associates

The Milking of the Cow.

s. W. Floss in Yankee Blade.
The milk pail used to versfy mild and mellow
metre
When used to milk old Brindle in the yard.
And the shining milk was sweeter unto me and
little Peter
Than Oriental perfumes of myrrh. franklin
cense and nard,
The sunset flung its banners from the gilded
hills about us,
And the doors of the evening seemed to drop
from every bough,
There was peace and glad contentment both
within us and without US,
At the sweet mellifiuous milking of the COW.
And wandering like memory, from the silent
past abysm
1 smell the grateful odors Of the fragrant
evening breeze,
And bend to catch the chrism of the twilipht's
And the outstretched benediction of the trees
The glory of the summer night the magic Of
the mountains,
And the twinklngs of the twilight on the
farm are with me now
But through all the rningliny music still hear
those falling fountains,
The sweet mellifuous milking Of the COW.
Still hear the joyful rhyme. of that titillating
tinkie,
And smell the grateful odor of the placid,
perfumed night,
Odors blown from the glens asprinkle with
widrose and periwinkle,
AND from lakes where lazy lilies loll in Ian
guOr for the light,
Through the valley of the long year that is
glimmering behind Inc
peer down through the vista that connects
the then and now,
With Youths audacious unconcern q careless
boy find nae,
At the sweet meilifuous milking of the COW.

Presidential Candidates.

1t is said in Washington that Senator
Carlisle is candidate for the democratic
nomination for President. 1t would be in
teresting to know upon what authority this
statement is made. 1t is certain that
Senator Carlisle never intimated to any one
that he is a candidate.
There is no doubt that he would be
strong candidate. The fact that he is a
southern man would not cost him any votes
On the contrary, it wonld make votes for
him. There is q growing sentiment through
out the west that it is time that sectional
lines were obliterated, and thousands would
vote for Senator Carlisle for no other reason
than to obliterate them.
He is a conservative man. AS speaker of
the House he gave entire satisfaction, not
only to his own party, but also to the repub-
licans. He was SO just in his rulings that
the partisans of his own party often
complained that he was more than fair to
the republicans.
1t is conceded that he is an exceedingly
| able man. Although a new senator, he is
recognized as one of the leaders of the
Senate. As presidential candidate nothing
could be said against him that would lessen
the respect in which he is held by the people.
But If Mr.. Cleveland Is a candidate SEN
ator Carlisle could not get the nomination,
and there does not seem TO be any doubt
that he is candidate. The story that was
started in Washington the other day that
he had about made up his mind to write
a letter stating that he would not
accept the nomination if offered him had
no foundation. There will be many other
such stories started by Mr.. ClevelandS enc
mics, but they will not accomplish their
purpose. 1t will be impossible to prevent
MIR. Cleveland from getting the nomination
if he wants it,

A Man Who Has opiniona

Jerry Simpson, Of Kansas, better known
as ''Sockless jerry who is a member-elect
Of the next congress, has been giving the
country some of his opinions through the
newspapers. He went to Washington about
ten days ago for the purpose of getting the
run OF the thing" as he expressed
it, preparatory to taking a hand
in the business Of making laws
for the people. He was not
very fayorably impressed with the House OK
Representatives. He expected to see very
quiet. dignifed body, and was astonished to
find that order and dignity are things Of
which the members OF the House know
very little. He was not very long in max
ing up his MUD that he would have TO take
the House in hand when he became a mem
Der OF It, and reform its proceed
ings in important particulars. Instead
Of being awed by what he saw, he came to
the conclusion that the average congress
man is not such great man after all, and
that be would have no trouble in stepping to
the front very early in his congressional
career. He will find, however. that he
made mistake with respect to the ability
of congressman, and that he will not get to
the front quite as soon as he thought.
He is convinced that the Republican
party is dead, and that the Democratic
party will last as long as the republic en-
dures He is right, no doubt, about the
Democratic party, but the Republican
party has a little life left in it
yet. Notwithstanding its corrupt con-
dition and its inability to offer
the people any reforms, its desire
for power and the offices will keep it alive
for some time yet. 1t is true that it Is no
longer the vigorous party it once was, and
it may be that a new party will absorb the
greater part of it, but "Sockless Jerry" will
not have the satisfaction of seeing a vigor-
Gus new party for number of years yet.
"Sockless Jerry" is in favor of abolishing
the Senate. II he does not show more dis
erection in expressing his opinions he will
Daralyze some of the sleepy old senators.
The senators think they are the real repre-
sentatives Of the people II it is the popu-
lar wish that the coinage of silver shall
be made free the Senate is more nearly in
accord with the people than the House, be-
cause it has passed the free silver coinage
bill, while there is no probability that the
House will pass that measure. 'Sockless
jerry" however, says that the Senate does
not represent the people, and he thinks he
knows what he Is talking about
1t may be that the people do
not want free silver coinage,
notwithstanding the fact that they are
clamoring for it. Doubtless the most of
them know as little about the merits of the
silver question as "Sockless Jerry" knows
about the wishes of his constituents.
There is no doubt that ''Sockless Jerry"is
going to be a conspicuous figure in the next
House, but whether as one of its solons or as
the butt of its wit and ridicule is question
that is yet to be determined

He Yanked the Polscat.

The way some wicked Texans played it on
Senator Blackburn out in Abilene some years
ago was sinful in the extreme" said Senator
Berry of Arkansas to Washington Post re-
porter,
1T seems that Blackburn went out there
with Senator Harris OF Tennessee, who has a
son in the stock business In Western Texas.
Abilene was booming young town then, and
like all frontier cities in embryo, decidedly
tough. Still the people were hospitable, and
the mayor, who had got into office through his
recognized skill as faro dealer, in a neat little
speech extended the senators the freedom of
the city
ITO beguile their stay a great fight was ar
ransed between fierce bulldog ana badger
to which the visiting statesmen were invited
lt was on this occasion that the mayor made
his complimentary address of welcome and he
wound up with the announcement that Senator
Blackburn had consented to pull the rope that
should ltberate the adger from the barrel in
which he was confined when the work for the
conflict should be given. They wanted an i'm
partial man to officiate, as q great deal of
money was staked.
The gentleman from Kentucky responded in
his usually happy vein, and concluded by say
ing; 1 will now perform the pleasant duty that
has been assigned me on this occasion Suiting
the action to the word he gave a jerk on the
string and yanked out-a pole-cat.''

s cretarr Foster,s PolicY.

Ex-Gov. Foster. the newly appointed Sec
rotary Of the Treasury, in an interview
| pub ished on Sunday, said that he was not
much Of a believer in policies, but for the
4 present he should continue the policy Of the
late Secretary Window. He is thoroughly
in accord with the President on
the silver question, and his per-
sonal influence and the influence Of the
treasury department will be against the
free coinage of silver. He is convinced
that if all restrictions to the coinage OF
silver were removed the commercial inter-
ests of the country would suffer great and
irrsparsble damage.
II may be assumed. therefore, that the
coinage Of silver will not be made free
during this administration. And before
this administration goes out of power the
silver question may cease to be leading
one. The fact that Secretary Foster is a
western man and resides In a state In which
agriculture is the leading industry may not
be without effect in checking, to some ex-
tent, the movement in favor Of free silver
coinage.
1t is not improbable that the next con-
gress may pass a free silver coinage bill.
Indeed, il looks now as If it would,
but if it should it would be vetoed
unless the Presidents views on
silver should undergo a very radical
change He is now in sympathy with the
great majority OF his party, however, and
it is, therefore, pretty safe to predict that
there will be no change in the silver situa-
ton during the next two years.
Secretary Foster is. of course, a protec-
Zionist, and it is understood that he thinks
the Mckinley tariff is the best kind of
tariff. He is one OF those extreme protec-
tionists who make no distinction between
prohibitory tariff and protective tariff.
II he could have his way he would raise
duties to a point at which importations
would be practically shut out
But he believes In reciprocal trade 81
am entirely in favor of reciprocal treaties"
he says. From this it appears that he IL a
very good party man. He agrees with his
party that IL the people will not stand
prohibitory tariff breaches must bs made
in the prohibitive tariff wall here and there
80 as to lessen the burdens Of that tariff, but
he will consent to no breaks in that wall
that would lessen the profits of the protected
monopolists. He can be depended upon to
stand by his party whatever position 1t may
take upon any important question. If the
President wanted strict party man he has
one in ex-Gov. Foster.

South Dakote's New senator

Those who think the Senate would be
benefited by having more young blood in it
| ought to be satisfied with James Henderson
Kyle, who has just been elected senator
from South Dakota. He is only SO years Of
age, and knows little or nothing about ma
tional politics. Few of the leading South
Dakota politicians have ever seen him, and
not many of the people Of South Dakota
had ever heard Of him few months before
he was elected. He is conspicuous OK.
ample OF what men of character, push aud
brains can accomplish in a new community
in short time.
Senator-elect Kyle is a minister of the
gospel and has been resident of South
Dakota only four years. At the time of his
election to the Senate he had given up
preaching for the time being aud was en-
gagged in soliciting funds for little college
which the Congregational church is try
ing to establish at Yankton. His salary
was sman-only 5000 year. Indeed, he
has never earned over $1,000 a year.
He was almost wholly unknown until
July 4, of last year. Ga that date he was
at little railroad town In Brown county
where Fourth of July grafton was to be
delivered. The orator failed to mako his
appearance, and the crowd, anxious to hear
speech from somebody, asked Preacher
Kyle If he would not supply the place of tho
absent orator. He consented and he suc-
ceeded in pleasing the people to such
an extent that his speech was
talked about throughout the new
M &k.& ..l
culated to meet the approval of farmers and
laborer& 1t dealt with the danger and
wrongs that follow from the accumulation
of colossal fortunes in the hands of few
persons. The members of the farmers al
lance were especially pleased with it, and
when the senatorial deadlock in the legis-
lature occurred, the alliance members in
that body turned their atten ton to the Rev.
Mr.. Kyle and elected him.
Although the Rev. Mr.. Kyle is not a
member of the alliance, he approves of the
principles of that order. He does not know
| himself, probably. whether he is a repub-
lican or democrat. He has been chased
as democrat during the last four years,
| and is nearer q democrat, probably, than
anything else.
He will make good senator, probably.
1t will take him some time to recover from
the surprise he experienced when it was an i.
nounced to him that he had bsen chosen to
sit with the millionaires in the United
States Senate. Like most of the western
men, he has great confidence in himself and
embraces every opportunity to make a
speech 1t is the impression that in the
Senate he will be almost as volumlnous a
talker as Senator Morgan. If he should
prove to be as luminous as that senator ne
would quickly become one of the noted fig
| ures of the Senate.

When it comes to making a statement
that is wholly without any pretext of foua-
dation merely to create a one-day sensation
that must be contradicted the following
day, as the Washington Post did with its
fabricated announcements that Cleveland
would not again be candidate for the
presidency, that appears to be reducing
journalism to the level of the country tav-
ern hoax made up of robust lying and dis
torted imagination. or course Mr.. Cleve-
land made no such announcement. Nor did
he authorize anyone to speak for him in the
matter. While Mr. Cleveland is not and
has not been an avowed candidate for the
presidency, like all capable good citizens, he
would probably feel honored by an election
to that office, and would be not only will
ing but quite competent to serve. That is
great deal more than can truly be said of
many of the most aggressively obtrusive
aspirants.
