A Bright Horse and a Clever Dog.

Few telegraphers are better known in
New York than George Mudgett, of the
postal Office, and there are fewer still
who have a better fund of stories. He
tells Of a certain horse who accompanies
a Scranton (Pa.) lineman ON his trips.
This horse can see a broken insulator
quicker than his rider, and always stops
when II is reached. 1t is hardly neces-
sary to add that the horse can telegraph
with his feet, but no one knows what
he signs" The same lineman owns a
dog who can tell by the bell attached to
the district messenger register when a
certain firm rings a call. The dog at
once runs to the store, takes the message
i'll his mouth and delivers it safely at
the telegraph Office. George Mudgett
says he e. invents yarns. -New York

General Sherman's individuality.

In one of Lawrence Hutton's articles
on deathmasks he speaks incidentally of
General Sherman's strong individuality,
which cause a certain sculptor to re-
mark: when l was busy with a bust of

day, it was a curious fact that he made
positively no personal impression upon

him, but it was hard work to remember

Notes About AlligatorS,

There is nothing that a gator likes bet
ter than fresh pork, and he will toddle
three miles from water for a Florida
razorback. In cool weather he buries
himself in mud and becomes dormant
until it grows warm. Hunters still make
a living by killing him for his hide and
teeth. The killing of alligators from the
decks OF river steamers in Florida has
been stopped by law. Tourists became
very careless in their use of firearms. and
would endanger the lives of passengers

THE TROUBLE OF 1T!
CONTINUED from First Page

Continued from First Page.l
merely partisan feeling upon any subject
as that of the acquisition of the Sand
wich islands. This consensus of opinion
has removed the chief objection to the
immediate annexation of the islands in
solar as it has seemed to make it possible
to pass the requisite bill through both
branches of congress within the next four
weeks.
While this feeling in congress has had
its effect it is undoubtedly true that the
determined position of the commissioners
to take annexation or nothing has led to
an abandonment of the idea of a protec-
torate. %EAey have said that if this gov
eminent insisted upon talking of a pro-
tectorate they would be compelled to close
the negotiations and return to their
homes. The administration is naturally
not DESTROYS of bringing all negotiations
summarily to an end by thus insisting
upon a protectorste as the basis of dis
cussiOn. The commission stated to-day
that they were well pleased with their
reception by Secretary of State Foster
and that they had every reason to feel
encouraged. There can be only one
Interpretation of this encouragement.
1t seems that their overtures of an
nexation have been favorably received
and that annexation has already been
made the basis of action by this govern
ment. The administration is much
freer to act upon annexation policy than
it was five days ago, when it seemed ap-
parent that British buster would inter,
vene to cause diplomatic complication
and inevitable delays. Mr.. Gladstone,
with his we'll known cordial feeling to-
ward this country, has prevented any
objection from being entered openly in
parliament to the negotiation with
Hawaii.

II. J. Bass, Esq, President Durham To
bacco Association, Durham, y. c.:
DEAR SIR-I find that the petition
signed by yourself and other gentlemen
Of Durham, under date Of November 20,
to Mr.. Stanard, division freight agent of
this company, has through some over
sight not received the attention it de-
served. 1t had to pass through many
hands and various departments, and in
the mix did not receive the courteous con-
sideration which would have been proper.
The matter of double daily service on
the Durham division has given me great
concern, and | have carefully and thor.
oughly examined into the subject as to
whether the company would be justified
in going to the expense of this double
daily service. / recognize the fact that
the benefits to be derived from this SER
vice will undoubtedly be very great to
our friends along the entire line of the
Lynchburg and Durham, and my earnest
effort would be to accommodate them,
provided it could be done without a very
serious expense to the company, and one
that at this season of the year it would
be a great mistake to incur. | believe,
however, with the opening up of business
in the spring we will be justified in so ar
ranging cur schedules on the Durham
division as to give you all the facilities
you ask for in fact, this has been our de-
termination.
Won't you kindly advise those inter-
ested that this whole subject has had our
careful consideration, that we thoroughly
appreciate the situation of our business
friends in Durham, and will be prepared
to do the best we can at the earliest date
possible. Yours very truly,

TOBACCO TALK.
Rev. Alex Wake Gives His Views Oh the
Tobacco Market.

The receipts of leaf tobacco continue
large, with an active demand at full
prices. Cutters show a slight advance
In the past week and all other grades are
fully up to former prices. We would say
to the farmers that now is a good time
to sell. The old tobacco in the late re
celpts does not appear to sell as high rs
the new, but this is owing greatly to he
fact that a very large per cent of the old
is more or less damaged. and the buyers
are ~apprehensive and are very cautious
In bidding on old tobacco.

A party whose victory is due to
the fact that the opposing party
simply refused to so to the polls,
holds power on u frail tenure, and
this power will be short-livcd. This
is the case with the Democratic
party. In proportion to population
there are no more Democrats in the
country now than there were in 1883,
while there are just as many Repub-
Leans as there were then. No Re-
publicans have gone over TO the
Democracy. Their party was beaten
because tens of thousands of its mcm-
hers in every important State de-
clincd to vote. and they declined to
vote because the party's position ON
some of the leading issues did not
suit them. The party's position
will he fixed SO that it will suit every
Republican in 1896.

No Tariff Commission.

The latest suggestion OF Demo-
cratic cowardicc is for the appoint
ment of u tariff commission to inves-
tigate and report for the action Of
Congress. This savOrs about as much
Of imbecility as of cowarslice. The
tariff question has been under discus
sion for many years. There has been
one tariff commission, and the SUBJ
ject has been before many ways and
means committees. 1t has been thor
oughly ventilated by the press and
carefully considered by the people.
No commission can throw any addi-
tional light on the principles or the
ory Of tariff legislation. Therefore,
we repeat the proposition for the ap.
pointnent of commission to inves-
gate the SUBJECTS imbecile as we'll as
cowar(ly.
What is needed is a practical test
and trial of the Democratic doctrine
of free trade or tariff for revenue
only. The people have had a twenty
five years trial Of protection, and it
is universally conceded that the coun.
try has prOspercd and made great
progress under it. In a spirit of un-
rest or discontent, and with the aid
of the Solid South and the ignorance
Of Northern cities, they have decided
in favor of a change and have put the
Democratic party in power under a
promise and pledge that it would re-
peal the Mckinley bill and put in
practical operation the doctrine on
which they carried the election. Now
let them keep faith with the people.
Let them fuldll their promises and
pledges or stand before the country

sters. No tariff c0mmission.-Indi-

Deficient in Courage ANA Dignity.

President Harrison did not find it
necessary to run away from his party
friends in the intervals between cleo
tion and Inauguration, though prob
ably no Prcsident-elect ever had a
greater number of visitors. Indeed,
from the day OF his nomination to
the 4th of March he practically kept
open house and denied himself to
none who called. He was criticised
by those who did not know him as q
cold" man, but though he may not
have greeted all who came with the
effusiveness suitable to the reception
of long-lost and beloved relatives, he
at least received them with civility
and listened to what they had to say.
But Mr.. Harrison was aot confronted
with the difficult problem of explain
ing to the representatives of party
factions how the coming admins.
tration was to reduce the tariff
without injuring business or how it
vas to avoid the reduction without
