Many Of you have stood on the beach
at the seaside and watched the seas
rolling in heavy breakers after storm,
curling and crushing into volumes of
foam and broken water with such
force as To send them sweeping up al
most TO your feet. 1t is through such
waves that men who follow the sea
must At times pass in reaching the
shore, but not through one or two on
a smooth, quick-shelviug beach, but
through thirty or forty, perhaps, cover
ing "A mile of trcacherous shoals, and at
places Surging between Jagged reefs
and huge bowlders. With intense in
terest we read of the dreadful ship
wrecks almost every week. The sur
vivors tell how the big ship labored
and struggled through uous.er billowa
and shrieIling wind, under black flying
clouds and amid Jagged atreaks OF
lightning until, mastless and helpless,
she lay exhausted in the trough of the
sea and passively received the crashing
deluge of merciless waves until she
sank They tell how they, poor, Puny
human beings, clung 10 helm and
pumps till the great ships struggles
We're over and it became evident that
she could carry them no longer; then
how they hastily threw a casl of water
and few provisions into some remain
ing boat and at favorable moment
launched upon the angry waters in a
craft so frail that it seemed as if all on
board were doomed To instant destruc-
ton.
Here comes what ST. Nicholas calls
the strangest part of their narrative.
Read all such accounts carefully and
you viii find that in nearly every case
where Su \ a little boat is safely
launched from an abandoned ship ii
floats and drifts for day, and even
weeks upon the open ocean, living
through the dreadful tempest which
wrecked the big ship, sailing buoyant
Iy through calmer seas and finally
bringing the survivors within sight OF
other ships or lands.

The Tribune Rallies the Party.
The New York Tribune is newspaper
to which the people of this country In
general and especially the Republican
party have always turned, instinctively,
in public emergencies, for calm and cOur-
ageous counsels, and a brave rallying
cry. Never losing Its head, never mis-
leading the public by sensational utter
ances. The Tribune has many times
Gained the public mind in times of dis
aster and led the way out of difficulties
by sound advice and it's own patriotic
and well directed efforts. The Tribune
does not, for moment, yield the point
on which the Presidential campaign was
fought. 1t believes that the workingmen
of this country have been deluded by
demagogues; and that they have struck
blindly at the very system under which
they are prospecting as they never have
done before in their lives. The Tribune's
prospectus in another column tells the
story. Republicans in this country will
do well to subscribe for the Tribune this
year in combination with your own local
paper, the BANNER.

WASHINGTON CRY, April 22-The Noyes-

the House today. There was thought to
be concealed behind the legal question the
Democratic nomination for the presi-
dency. Was il best to nominate Hill or
the much-spoken-of western man? 2" The
vote. 1t is said, indicates that the West
may come to the front. Fellows of New
York favored Rockwell, and Cochran of
New York followed. Neither referred to
the political imbroglio except by innuendo,
but OFerral of Virginia announced him.

rapturously applauded, but failed to
carry the House with him, and with but
thirty-nine members recording themselves
In favor of the contestant, the chasm be-
tween Cleveland and Hill seems to be
more than ever without the prospect of a
plank to bridge it. O'Ferrall closed the
argument in favor of Noyes. The question
required on the resolutions of the minor
ity as substitute for those of the major
ity, and declaring Noyes not elected; car
ried, 140 to SO, thirty-nlne Democrats vot-
ing to sustain the report of the majority,
and there being no break in the Repub-
lican ranks. The second substitute, de-
claring Rockwell entitled to the seat, was
agreed to, 12S to 106. Bryan's motion to
recommit was defeated. The resolutions
as amended were agreed to and Rockwell
retains the seat.

CHICAGO, April 22.-The full extent of
the tobacco frauds committed by Western
ringsters against the government by
unoeryaluations is being learned. In the
last SIX months 600 bales of Sumatra to-
pacco, valued at over a quarter of million
dollars and 81 a pound, have been entered
at oan Francisco on payment of 80 cents
per pound duty. This means loss of
revenue to the government of nearly
sio,oOo. This enormous quantity Of tobacco
has been distributed among various cities
IN the country. Sixty-eight bales have
peen located in Cincinnati, some in Phila-
deiphia and some in other cities. The
parties who purchased innocently will
have the seized tobacco released. The
treasury agent said today that the govern
ment has not located more than one-fifth
OF the tobacco struggled in. Liebes & Co.,
OF New York. who handled the tobacco, he
said, are likely to have trouble in proving
their innocence. The agent said Grantz
Bros. d Co., of San Francisco, acted with
them in disposing of tobacco.

In the Senate.

WASHINGTON CRY, April PIN the
Senate the bill to amend section 100 of the
Revised Statutes was reported from the
judiciary committee with amendments
and passed.
The calendar was taken up, and the bill
placing the secretary of agriculture in the
line of succession after the secretary of
the interior was passed.
The bill authorizing the secretary of the
interior to increase to sl2 per month the
pension of every pensioner who is now on
the rolls at IS on account of service in the
Mexican war, and who is totally disabled
for manual labor and in such destitute cir
cumstances that the latter pension is in
sufficient to provide him with the neces-
sites OF life, was passed.
The army appropriation bill was re-
ported and placed on the calendar.
The urgent deficiency bill was then
taken up. The following amendments
were agreed to: Appropriating 1000 for
the representation of the United States at
the Columbia Historical Exposition at
Madrid in 1892; 500, 900 for continuing the
work of the eleventh census; appropriate
$3.50 to reimburse Montana for the ex-
penses of its constitutional convention.
The bill. as amended, was passed.
The Chinese exclusion bill was taken up,
and Chandler presented testimony show
ing the need of more stringent laws to pre-
vent the influx of Chinese. He admitted
that the situation between the American
government and China was a bad one He
then commented on the correspondence
upon Blair's rejection.
DAVIS, member of the committee on
foreign relations, looked upon the House
bill as rank, radical, unblushing, unmiti-
gated reputation of every treaty obliga-
ton remaining between the United States
and China. Davis took occasion. in the
course CT his speech, to denounce the
Cahensly proposition submitted to the
pope last year. Without division on the
bill the Senate went into executive ses-
sion, and adjourned until tomorrow.
