you are like all the rest who write
about farming. She says you sit over

farmers who dig away on stony hills

The country has been startled by

CURED at the board of trade banquet
in New York city on Wednesday even
ing. 1t was so terribly sudden that all
who heard the news were profoundly
| shocked. Though the information did
not reach the capital until late hour,
it spread with lightning like rapidity
and in the club and hotel corridors was
the one topic Of conversation. Men
gathered in crowds to ask for details
of the sad affair. The universal senti-
ment was one of sorrow, and gentlemen
Of opposite political faith bore testi-
mony to the sterling worth and ability
OF the dead. Public mea, while TOO
greatly overwhelmed by the news to
speak at length of the dead Secretary
distinguished ability. especially as f.
nancier, said he was undoubtedly one
of the strongest men who had ever ad-
ministered the affairs of the treasury
department, and that In his death the
administration and the country too had
sustained an almost irreparable loss.
Such expressions we're common from
members of both political parties. His
course during the recent financial fur
ry was warmly commended, and had
displayed wonderful force Of character
and keen insight into the country's
needs in solving the knotty problems
that from time to time confronted him.
The credit was freely conceded him,
too, Of having adopted policy that af-
forded almost immediate relief.
Democratic representatives held con-
ferences yesterday with Senator Cor
man, relative to the programme to be
followed in the House, and it is likely
that today final assurances will be Civ
en-, that no republican will call up the
force bill. The ranks of the opposi-
ton were yesterday increased by the
addition Of four republican senators,
who have pledged themselves to stand |
by their colleagues who recently voted
with the democrats. It was the knowl-
edge that nothing further need be fear
ed from the obnoxious measure, that
led the democrats to agree on the ap-
portionment bill, and three will be no
further attempt at filibustering.
The possibility that the next con-
yress will witness some important tar

have attracted the attention which tue
facts undoubtedly warrant. The pres
