Gen. WhaleY Talks.

NEW HAVEN, Ct, July 1O.-Gen.
Joseph Whaley was asked what he
thought the result Of the extra
session of Congress will be and
said: 81 am going to Washington
on August 9TH, just as every other
member is, without the slightest
idea Of what will be done at the
session. What Congress will do to-
wards the silver question is con-
undrum in the solution of which |
cannot even hazard aguess. There
will surely be a bitter struggle and
/ expect to see the session continue
right up to within a day or
two of time of calling the regular
session. Then adjourn for the day
and go to work again. | expect to
see the fight hinge on the stop
page Of the purchase Of silver
without undertaking to repeal the
whole Sherman act. / do not be-
lieve that President Cleve-
land will, as has already been
suggested, devote his message
to the silver question. l believe he
will take up the tariff and other
questions, that will be suggested
by the financial condition of the
country"

from the public schools of Cam
bridge, and in 1873 entered Har-
ward college, graduating in 1877.
He studied law, and was admitted
to the Suffolk bar in 1880, and has
risen very rapidly in his profess

for eve years, four years as
mayor. He became Governor of
Massachusetts in 1890, and so
general was the satisfaction given
by him during his first term that
he has been twice reelected.

1t was q brave thing to see the
ground smoke under their ilnpetu-
Gus onslaught. II our boys can
show such skillful maneuvering and
such aauntless::coursge in friendly
struggle, what may We expect when
they are confronted by an enemy
We are peacable people and not
disposed to quarrel with our neigh
bors; but the mimic battlefield Of
the Manhattan grounds last week
proves the stuff we are made of.
Instead Of continually lamenting
the dangers Of foot ball, we should
rejoice that our young fellows pre-
fer its excitement to dodling around
stage doors and afternoon teas.
The Olympic games were open to
all men whose character was un-
stained by infamy and immortality.
An equal freedom and a similar
restriction are characteristic of col
lege foot ball. To arrive at distinc-
ton in such contests as we have
lately witnessed boy must be
sound in wind and body.
But although, there is certain
similituds between this spirited
game and the sports of 1000 years
ago on the plains of Corinth and
Ellis, the Greeks never had such en-
joyment as ours. Noswomen were
permitted to witness the Hellenic
tournaments. In later and a wis.
err age we allow the beauty of the
ladies to form a golden'ring.' ..around
the arena Of our youthful chivalry.
The champions knowledge that his
sweetheart's eyes are on'him renews
his valor under every mishap.
And if mishaps come, as come they
must at times in all ventures Of
work or play, the brave youngstel
forgets discomfort in ambition tc
earn the smiles of his mistress and
the glory of his alma mater. 1t is
a mistake to make dudes out of boys
who want to be men. 1t is to be re.
GREETED that in the enthusiasm O

To DEGRADE LABOR.

The proposed nlea-ure, In nv

lowest line Of our Competitors.
To carry this out our habits of Hv-
ing must be- changed our wages cut
down t. at least 80 per cent, our in

/ ship demOralized. That those con.
ditions are inseperable from free
trade we can prove by the present
condition of the country. We
have now depression in its fullness,
and nothing hut the assurance that
the tariff will be let alone will lift
the shadow which crosses every
community aud spreads far into
the agricultural districts. To-day
every thing is cheaper. You buy
more for n dollar than ever before
! in a generation or more. But how
costly is the change when measur
ed by the loss of income, the sor
row, the suffering of our Industrial
population! Are we not having AN
"Object lesson" of the Oft repeated

The most distressing experience

THE PHILOSOPHY OF FOOT BALL.

This is the season of football. 1t
is also the annual period in which
much unreasonable anxiety is ex-
pressed over the possibility Of ac-
cidents at the games. The concern
manifested by timid folk during
these tournaments is only OCCASION
ally justified by facts. A serious
casualty, like that of recent ocur-
renee during Connecticut match,
is infrequent. Foot ball is necessa-
rily a contest of rough force and
physical prowess. 1t is plentiful in
mishaps, none OF which seems to
distress the victims so much as the
spectators. But there is no manly
sport absolutely free from danger.
Compared with base ball, swimming,
polo hunting boat racing and yacht
ing, the great athletic game of our
college boys has good record in
vital statistics. There is no sport
of equal proves so free from fatal
ity as this. More accidents occur
during n single season of hunting
shooting or aquatic sports than
have taken place on the foot ball
field since its heroes first kicked for
goal.
Happily these effeminate com
plants against a game which devel
ops in the younger generation those
essentials of physical strength and
bravery that are needlul to the
health Of society are entertained
neither by the collegians nor the
public. The frequently maudlir
entreaties to be careful of euticle
that have recently been addressed
to the university teams were forgot
ton in the enthusiasm of last Thurs
day. Forty thousand citizens pai(
double that number of dollars OF
this occasion TO rejoice over the feat
Of muscle and daring displayed b,
boys who are not yet arrived at tn,
age of boards. These youthful
gladiators thought nothing of, posi-
Bile contusion,, Improbable bruises
of eventual arnica. The collegian
whether OF the freshman ,.or soph
omoric period, who would no
strain a muscle for the glory of hi
alma mater scarcely deserves t
graduate. There was nobody il
the legions of spectators that watch
ed the contest in this modern aren'
who was not proud of the valor o
Young America. Those stalwarr
fellows were the lineal descendants
of Monmouth, Lexington and Ii,
conderoga.

The Maryville times. (Maryville, Tenn.) 1884-1944, 1893-12-13

COLUMBUS, OHIO, december L.
You ask me to express my views
on the Wilson tariff bill for the
Press. AS l have already said, it is
a good bill for Europe and bad
one for the United States. 1t Is
sectional. Hoop iron is made free
for .baling cotton, but dutiable for
other purposes. The bill is the re-
assertion If the economic doctrines
of the Old South and a blow at the
coal and iron industries OF the New
South. 1t strikes the wageaearners
without mercy and deals a seriou,,
blow at. agricultural interests. 1t
means that the greatest manufac
turing and agricultural nation in
the verdi is sto abandon its own
economic system and adopt that of
q competitive nationlwhich it has
already "utstripped in, the pursuit
of wealth and happiness. | have
no hesitation in pronouncing this
bill by far the most radical and far
reaching in the direction of free
trade of all the tariff bills prepared
by the democrats during the last
decade 1t will prove more destruc-
tive to American industry than the
ambiguous aud uncertain cross cut
proposed in 1884; it reaches far be.
You'd the measure Of 1888, and
makes deeper cuts and more seri.
rious inroads into the protective
system than the ready made pro.
duction of Mr.. Mills in 1888. In the
preparation OF the bill our demo-
cratic friends seem to have fol-
lowed precisely the same tactics as
in 1889. 1t was fashioned outside
of the committee, printed apparent
ly wi hout the knowledge of the
minority and without consideration
or discussion in the full committee.
Never in the whole couse of my
experience in tariff legislation has
the testimony been so direct, so
clear, so unqualifiedly, so pathetic
in some instances, against the
changes which the committee seems
to have made. A glance at the
printed testimony, published by the
committee, suggests doubt if the
members OF the committee respon.
sible for the proposed legislation
ever listaued to or examined this
testimony.

are as gentle and tame as any one could
wish. In fact, they are a little too
tame and familiar. We have been
obliged to keep every one of them tied
or yarded to keep them out of the
house, and to prevent them from an
noying visitors. Handling makes the
disposition. A properly handled Jer-
sey COW is the gentlest animal in the
world.
We use large quantities of fresh fruits
and Graham gems in our family, and
these require lots of both cream and
butter, and also use butter in my pie
crust cakes and cookies, and our little
Jersey is the only cow we owned, or
that [ know of, that could nearly sup
ply us.
For coffee and tea, and also for fruit,
I find her cream is, too rich and stiff,
but by adding an equal quantity of
milk and stirring it we'll it is just right
and delicious.
One of the best characteristics of the
Jerseys is that for each pound of good
food we give them we get full value in
return. They are simply living ma
chimes for converting food into cream
and tutter.
I feed our little cow oats, bran,
coarsely ground corn, hay, and swt ct
corn stalks, surplus beets, etc, from
the garden. [ also use her for lawn
mower, and instead of wasting the
grass she converts it into cream. [ tie
one end of one quarter inch rope about
her horns, slip the leg of my chair
through a loop on the other, and she
eats the grass around me while I read
CT sew.
To sum up the practical part of this
matter, l find that, if we were to sell
one half Of her production at regular
market prices, the amount received
would pay the whole cost of her keep
ing. That is good enough for any body.
