WASHINGTON LETTER. .
From Our Regular Correspondent.
WaShinotnn Dec % 90


Washington, Dec %, 1892
If story that has just leaked out be
true congress took its holiday recess just
in time to smother an awful row,
amounting almost to revolt, in the
democratic camp. 1t seems that Don
Dickinson was sent here by Mr.. Cleve-
land to inform the democratic leaders in
the house that there wasrno occasion for
them to worry about the tariff as it was
his intention tt have tariff bill ali
ready to be passed presented to the
house of the Ffty-third congress as soon
as it comes together. There was some
very plain talk among the democrats in
both house and senate when this mes
sage was delivered to chem, not the least
significant of which was the inttmation
that it is in the power of the present
congress to compel the calling of an early
spriug session ofthe next congress- Don
Dickinson very wisely waited until just
before the recess before he delivered ms
momentous message. The good feeling
engendered by the holidays may result in
cooling the blood of the indignant demo-
Gratis sufficiently to prevent an open out
break when congress comes together on
the 4th OF January, but the message will
not be forgotten, and if Mr.. Cleveland
persists in his present intention as to
furnishing congress with ready-made
tariff bill open war will probably be de-
clared against him by his party in con-
gress. A short time ago when Congress
man Breckinridge OF Kentucky, stated
his opinion that the new tariff bill ought
to be prepared by Mr.. Cleveland, it was
thought that he was only making use OF
bit of flattery to get deeper into Mr..
cleveland's good graces, but now it is
believed that the opinion was made
public at Mr.. Cleveland's request as
"feeler" of public sentiment.
Jerry Simpson has gone home with his
head full Of schemes concocted by Sena-
tor German to get himself elected to the
senate, and should he succeed he would
belong body and soul to German, unless
he violated pledges which those who
ought to know say he has made.
Senator Sherman, just before the
Christmas adjournment, reported the
Nicarauga Canal bill and gave notice
that he would call it up at the earliest
practicable moment. The bill is going
to be fought hard in the house, notwith.
standing its endorsement by the nation
al democratic platform and by Mr..
Cleveland.

ST. PAUL, MINI, Dec. II, 1892.
EDITOR HERALD:
The good roads convention to meet in
st. Paul next month is creating some
interest among farmers and others. The
consideration of the highway laws and
regulations of the state OF New York by
sud convention would be good idea.
In that state either one or three road
commissioners are chosen at the annual
town meeting i'll each township, who are
charged with keeping in repair the high
ways during the year.
The following law would work to ad-
vantage on some of our Minnesota
marsh and timber roads:
Persons liable to be assessed for high
way labor may apply to the commits
sioners to order the oyerseer OF highways
to open all roads to the width of two
rods. at least, which they shall judge to
have been used as public highways for
twenty years.
Another GLASS of the statutes is as fol-
lows.
Whoever shall injure any highway, by
obstructing or diyerting any creek,
water-course Or sluice, or bv drawing
logs or timber on the surface of any road
or bridge. or by any other act, shall for
every such offense forfeit treble DAM
| ages.
With such laws enforced here, good
roads will be had in town and out; i'll
marsh, prairie and in the timber
! AS the time draws near for the meet
| ing of the legislature the capitol is being
prepared for its reception by the cleaning
and vanishing of furniture and wood
work i'll the house and senate, and cal
cimiuing of the walls in the lobbies, Civ
ing much improved appearance.
A new capitol building in the nea,
future must surely be erected; the present
one becomes more crowded each year
The law library, where 2O,s9s book:
were on hand the third of November
last. and more being received each week
the shelves are becoming crowded.
For the benefit of attorneys to whom
they are distributed, will state here
that three cases, or ITS volumes of the
laws OF the last congress, have been re
ceived at the library. There is also on
case remaining of the laws of the frs
session fifty-frst congress.
OF course st. Paul could not fall behint
in political strides or attempts at stride.
and in imitation Of other democrats il
other places, there has been an organiza
tion perfected styled The Ramsey Count,
Ex-Union Soldiers and Sailors Demo
cratic Club.
