WASHINGTON LETTER.
Capital by our Regular
Correspondent.

WASHINGTON, D. c. Aug. IS,
1898, Speaker Crisp has settled the
nature of the tariff bill that will be re-
ported from the House Committee on
Ways and Means by the appointment
of Wilson, of w. Va, Chairman of
that Committee. Mr.. Wilson's free
trade sentiments are well known and
he says the Committee will at once
begin work on tariff bill. 1t does
not, however, necessarily follow that
the free trade bill to be prepared by
the House Committee will become
a law. 1t may get through the
House, as the Democratic majority in
that body is SO large that few dis
senters cannot materially affect the
final result, but in the Senate things
are different. The Democratic ma
jority is small, and and some of
the Democratic Senators have pri-
vately informed Republicans that
they will not support bill making
radical cuts in the tariff.
The Silver Speech of Senator Vor-
hees has been much talked about
since it was delivered. 1t was in
some respects one of the most re-
markable heard in Congress for a
long time, as well as one of the
most dangerous. While protesting
the greatest admiration for the admin
istration the Indiana Senator de-
nounced the administrators pension
policy and advocated the widest sort
of financial initiation, going further in
some particulars than the populists,

YOUNG MEN. POSI- YOU z =
SELVES.

Now will be a good time for shas
people, and young men in PARTICULAR.
to post themselves upon the monetary
affairs of the government. MI ii SsM
be said in public print, from now zEa-
til the question is settled, ahous k5srs-
silver coinage, ''gold or its cquiyaIsntE.s''
banks, bank notes, treasury ril1zzs-
bonds, their redemption and basw
they should be redeemed etc. IxE
only during epochs of exci'euxE1atz
about such questions that. ASyy are@sd
general interest, bNt tho nlo.tcsErY
system of a government is the n,assz,
serious question involved in pola1xls
economy, hence the importance ca
intelligent young men OF posting thssaa-
selves thereon. Our advice, thasnfs-
fore to young men is to read asssEnsa
see upon this subject, and give pxrasas
ular attention to the opinion Of Msa1zs
who rank as statesmen, be thew Dezsss
ocrats or Republicans.
1t is not the view Of some pass ssSg
politician without reputation OF aERra
that should be your guide, thar va
men who are students Of monesz~y
policies. Just at this time there xsce
some very dangerous, though piasrsg
bic looking heresies advanced, thas
adoption of which would plunges; ,.h1s
country into sea Of uncertain tlt.eas
and rebounding waves. Upon tsx-
whole the country is getting sy2xe
very valuable object lessons frQSzA
which the rising generation of yognxs
men may be able to gain much th:zs
will be of service to them in tlc..aA.ss-
ure when they come along to be thi9-
leaders of public thought, and assn Kr

zens or statesmen. Young men read

We read a great deal about the
scheme of the editor of the Atlanta
Constitution concerning the negro
problem. He thinks the negro
should be given the right of citizen
ship in one state and no other.
There is no probability of SUCH plan
being adopted and therefore it is not
necessary to discuss it. 1t would be
an impossibility because first the ne
gro would refuse to 60, and second
the white people in any one state
would not consent to move out for
some one else. Every man who is Va
citizen should have the right to live in
any state in this country so long as he
behaved himself. The best way of
settlement Of the race problem is more
liberal education for both whites and
blacks. Make them thinking men
and give them full liberty to express
their opinion at the ballot box and
the country will not go far wrong.

When your moneys played out and

And the pay day don't come as it

What's the use of a-howlin' and grow
lin round so?
Why don't we go fshin', like Grover?
When the derned manufacturers shet
down their mills,
Tn the hard hearted grocerymen
clamor for bills,
Why not take sneak 'mong the back
woods and hills,
An keep on fshin' like Grover?
Supposin' the green goods you put in
the bank
Have soaked out to fill some other
mans tank;
Though your pockets are empty, O.,
don't be crank,
But jest 50 a-ishin' like Groverl
An supposin' again, you should
think of the days
When things hustled on in the olden
time ways,
An, business was humpin'-don't get
In craze,
But start off a hshin' like Grover.
You voted, spose, as you thought

(But somebody blundered it must be
confessed
So, now, with hearts thankful, enjoy

Oh, Myl it is just too awful for any

CHAIRMAN WILSON, Of the Ways

have up free trade Bill as soon as it
can be prepared. We are ready for
most everything and anything, but
we would like to have the whole dose

don't believe in taking it like we once
heard of cats tail being cut off inch

SPEAKER CRISP, has deposed
Springer from the craftsmanship of the
Ways and Means, and Holman, from
the craftsmanship of the committee on
appropriations, bur he did not disturb
Mr.. Bland who sits at the head of the
committee on coinage, weights, etc.
The Speaker who can turn down
Springer and Holman, but feared to
tackle the great question of free silver,
can hardly be said to be following the
wishes Of the President and his free
silver advisers.

desiring to cooperate with the farm

others engaged in like pursuits, in
fostering and developing every in
terest that tends to promote the

suggest, as means to attain this end,
the organization of County Agricultu

also, that four District Associations be
formed within the State to be known

East Tennessee Farmers Association
may designate. For the present, this
District will comprise all the counties
in East Tennessee.

held for the purpose of organization,
discussion of various topics of interest
to farmers and those engaged in kind
red pursuits, and the reading of such
papers as may be presented. 1t is

DID HE HAVE HIS WAY?

Has Grover Cleveland had his way
in the formation of the various House
committees as they were announced
by Speaker Crisp last week? 1t has
been said that he rejected his party's
platform in regard to free trade and
free coinage. Ifthis is so he certain
ly has not had his way for we see that
Wilson, Of West Virginia, has been
appointed chairman of the Ways and
Means Committee and it is well
known fact that there is not a more
earnest free trader in the House than
he and Bland, of Missouri, one of the
"crankiest" free silver men, has been
placed at the head of the coinage,
Weights and Measures Committee.
Is Cleveland free trader and does
he believe in free coinage? No one
can tell from his meaningless mes,
sage, but from what he has said here
to-fore we do not believe he is in ac-
cord with his party platform and it
seems as though he has not controlled
the appointment of the committees.
We do not see how President that
thinks of nothing but laying around
in the shade and fishing can control
anything. He deserves to be beaten
and lose his hold on everything.
