DENVER, Dec. ia wonderful piece
of engineering has just been accom-
plished in the boring of the Busk-Ivan-
hoe railway tunnel under the continent
al divide of the Rocky mountains at
Hagger1nan Pass, Colo. The tunnel is
almost two miles long-9, 239 feet-a and
Is through solid gray granite. 1t took
three years and 20 days, of 24-hour days,
to bore the big hole, $500 feet above the
sea level, through the top ridge of the
continent. The water draining from one
side of the mountain, under which it is
driven, runs to the Atlantic ocean and
from the other to the Pacific. Its CON
struction has cost 81 ,000, 900 and 20 hui
man lives. The tunnel. which is on the
Colorado Midland railway, the Santa
Fe's central route to California, substi-
tutes two miles of track for 10, and does
away with one of the most expensive
railway climbs in the world.

be reported IN few days ANY Of the
items that were inclnded IN the deficiency
bill which failed to pass at the special
session, are not included in the present
deficiency bill, as the house takes it for
granted that as the first bill is still Ia con-
ference, it may be passed.
Commissioner of Pensions Lochren has
appeared before the COMMITTEES and urged
an appropriation of 100000 for special
agents and examiners to investigate PEN

The public printer has sent in a reqIisi-
ton for 5000, 900 for the deficiency of the

years it has been cut down to less than

priation has been cut down it has been
necessary for congress TO appropriate
from 81 ,000, 600 to $4,000. 600 for de
hclencies. IF the present amount asked
for is not appropriated the treasury de-
partment Will be obliged to cultail It's

willing to create any. deficiency An
other item asked is $40, 900 for the trans

The commissioner of the general land
Office asked $50, 600 for SPECIAL agents.
This appropriation was materially cut in
the last congress. The land office also
asks $4,000 for contingent expenses.
The Last congress appropriated $500, 900
for registers and receivers, and provided
that enough land Offices should
be consolidated to make this amount
sufficient, but the officers have
not been consolidated, and if the so, 0Oe
is now appropriated it will be tanta-

WILSON TARIFF BILL.


Congressman CapehaFt Says ii Meets
Universal Favor.
A special dispatch from Wash
ington to the Wheeling Register un-
der date Of December stb, contains
the following
sRepresentative Capehart, who
has just returned here from his dis
trict, said to day that bis constitu-
ents, as far as he had heard, were
well pleased with the Wilson bill in
general and in detail. He had heard
of no objections to it from any
source The Democracy of his dis
trict were united in favor of tariff
reform, and they didn't want any
hnmbug about it either.
aThere is a general discussion of
the merits of the WiIson-biII going
on among the Democrats of the
House all the time Mr.. Capehart
continued, "and of course many OBJ
jeet to certain features of it which
they fear will affect industries in
their districts, but at the same time
the feeling in favor of passing the
Wilson bill substantially as it came
from the committee is very strong,
and believe it will prevail. Demo
Gratis realize that the party can not.
and must not allow the present OPP
portunity to effect a substantial re-
vision of the tariff to go by unim-
proved, and have no doubt that
the opposition to the bill which we
hear SO much about now will prove
not to be very serious o. strong.
The party is pledged to tariff re-
form, and the pledge will be redeem
ed"

take effect:
CoMMITTEEo ON WAYS AND MEANS,
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVE,
WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 6, 1898.
DEAR SIR: 1t was not possible
for me to answer your telegram re-
ceived. The dates objected to were
fixed by the full Democratic men,
bershipof the committee, and | have
no authority, Individually, to prom
Use change. l may add that these
dates were chosen after much de-
liberation, and with the approval of
some of the largest merchants and
manufacturers of the country. Ger
tainly l may say as to two of them
that they are each in their line IN
equaled as to the magnitude of their
interests involved.
Any dateis inconvenientt to many,
and there is probably a hopeless
confusion among them. The com
mittee has no other desire than to
speed legislation and to smooth the
transion as much as possible. Thirty
odd years of protection has-per-
haps acknowledgements few hund
red thousand people that tariff laws
are made for their sole benefit, and
that the other 100000 have no
rights which law makers should
respect.
The tax on 500 worth of goods
seems a matter too trivial to com
plain of if it helps the business of
the few. Sincerely yours.
W. L. WILSON.

The news from Washington in
dictate that few Democrats in the
House and Senate, are going to OPP
pose many of the provisions of the
Wilson tariff bill, and more particu-
larIy the provision putting coal on
the free list. 1t looks now as if there
will be repetition of the fight over
the repeal of the Sherman law. For
men who were elected to Congress
as Democrats, upon a platform de-
claring for atariff for revenue
only" now to turn round and op-
pose the very measure they were
pledged to support, shows species
of deceit and dishonesty that will
har Ily inset with the approval of
their constituents. Tariff reform is
the great question that divides the
Republican and Democratic parties,
and Democrats who do not believe
in tariff for revenue. shonld lose no
time in getting into the Republican
party.
