1HEN IND NOW.

The old soldiers at Washington, who con-
trasted the condition of Pcnnsylvana-ave. as
they marched down it on Tuesday with its APP
pearance twenty seven years ago, found other
contrasts in the condition of the country and
the Government which were equally noticeable
and pleasing The smooth, well paved avenue
Of to-day is no greater an improvement upon
the dusty, ill-ravcd thoroughfare Of ''cnty-
seven years ago than is the prosperous Treasury
and country an improvement upon the condi-
ton which confronted the returned heroes, who
were called upon to take up the duties OF citi-
zenship and taxpayers after the sacrifices they
had made upon the battlefield. When they
marched up Pennsylvania-avc. in 1865 they
found Treasury with debt amounting to
S2,s44, 600, 900; now there is an interest
bearing debt of less than $500, 100000. Then
the Official figures showed cash in Treasury
Sss, 900, 900; now in round numbers. 800
100000. Than the interest charge was
$3.50, 900, 900 per annum now it is in round
numbers $2O,000,000 per annum. Then
the Treasury was compelled to pay more than
per cent interest on the money borrowed to
carry on the war to save the country now it

The growing popularity OF the cicmatory as means

change in the burial rites OF the many secret orders
which flourish 10 this country This was strkingly
illustrated recently at the Obseques OF the late George

OF the Masonic order. The services were conducted
by the w0rshipf master OF the lodge John ". Frazier.
When Mr.. Frazier reached that portion Of the ritual
which consigns the body Of the deceased brother to

There is no contagious pleuro- pneumonia
among cattle in the United States This graft
flying announcement is made by Secretary Rusk
in proclamation published this morning. The
proclamation ends the guarantees against the
disease established in Kings and Queens ooun-
ties, L. l., and Essex and Hudson counties.
n. j., no cases having occurred in either OF
those sections for a considerable time. The
action of the Department of Agriculture in
dealing with pleuro- pneumonia has been prompt
and efficient, as the result shows.
THE TRlBUNEs staff correspondent in Ala
bama furnishes this morning an interesting re-
view Of the situation as regards the Congress
sional districts Of that State His conclusion is
that there are good prospects of defeating the
regular Democratic candidates in four districts,
and fair chance in two others, if an honest
election can be held. This is result worth
strenuously working for. To achieve it will re-
quire full cooperation and earnest effort on the
part Of all the anti Democratic forces. The out
look in Alabama this year is peculiarly bright.
Mr.. Hustled has been conspicuous figure in
State politics for a quarter of century, and has
enjoyed the unique distinction of having been
q member of the Assembly for twenty One
years, his period of service being continuous
with the exception of single years break
Moreover, he was elected Speaker of the Assem-
bly, six times, and was the unsuccessful Repub-
lioan candidate for that office on several occa
sions. He made place for himself in West
chester County and in the politics of the State
that cannot be easily filed. Mr. Hustled had
wide circle of friends having been a lifelong
resident Of Westchester County. He was a
sagacious politician and his advice and shrewd-
ness in mana cement will be sadly missed by his
fellow Republicans.
Commissioner Peck has received reinforce
ment from an unexpected quarter; from
source no less important than the files of the
United States Senate when Grover Cleveland,
who first appointed Mr.. Peck to the Office he has
held for nine years, was President In 1886
Mr. Cleveland removed District Attorney in
Alabama to make room for another man. The
Senate requested copies Of all documents re-
lating to the matter. but the President refused
e. surrender them, on the ground that they were
intended for his personal information and guild
ance and were not properly public property.

As the closing weeks Of the canvass are to DO
devoted mainly to political oratory, it is well
for all speakers to consider what is tho chief
function Of the stumpcr. Unquestionably IL Is
the faculty Of winning votes, and it is not nearly
so common as the art of pleasing those whose
votes are already secure. The most useful Ke-
publican speeches are those which are made in
Democratic strongolds, where Interruptions are
frequent. and large portion Of the audience Is
either neutral or hostile. AT such meetings votes
can be won if the art Of making converts has
been mastered. Campaign committees ought not
to waste upon small audiences or out-of-the-way
places stumpcrs who have this power If in
partially presenting the Democratic argument and
then refuting it in convincing way. Senator
Frye and ex-Congressman IIorr are stumpcrs of
this class, and they make votes wherever they
speak.
