SATURDAY, JANUARY IA, 1893,

Gen. B. f. Butler, the lawyer and
politician, died suddenly in Washington
last Wednesday. He was born at
Deerfeld, New Hampshire. in 1918 max
ing him at the time OF his death "a
wears of age. He served with distinct
ion in the late war. In 1861 he was
placed in command of the Military De-
partment OF Eastern Virginia and refused
to return fugitive slaves on the ground
that they were contraband of a He
commanded the expedition which sailed
to New Orleans in the Spring of 1862
and governed that city with vigorous
severity for several months. He saw
the fight through and after the wal
was elected governor of Massachusetts,.
General Butler was a man OF much
force and was abused by Democrats and
and Republicans by turns. For many
years after the wal he was stigmatised
as "Beast Butler" by one party and
when as Governor of Massachusetts, he
exposed the Tewksbury aims house man
agement, the other party denominated
him as a "scavinger."

A TROOP OF FATAL TORNAD0Es.

Rarely has Spring opened with more
fatal tornadoes in the West than this
year. From Michigan to Mississippi
these local whirlwinds were busy from
Tuesday to Wednesday night in their
work Of destruction. lows, Wisconsin
and Missouri were not neglected by
these furious storms, a great loss of life
occurring in the last named State.
All the reports which we have seen
state, as was to have been expected, that
the tornadoes travelled generally in a di-
rection from southwest to northeast. 1t
is this fact which furnishes an impor-
tant clew to the origin of all tornadoes
in the upper anti.trade current. Though
this much is apparent in all observations
Of this type Of whirlwinds little or no
practical use has been made Of it for
purposes Of prediction.
Unless systematic and instrumental
observations are taken in the upper at
mosphere there is no likelihood that the
descent OF tornadoes can ever be pre-
dicted. Such observations need not in
volve the risk of human life. To send
up occasionally q balloon on some fine
Summer day with a company of scien-
lists to observe the upper currents is an
adventure entirely useless for all pur-
poses of forecasting any meteorological
events. What is wanted is an automat-
ically acting instrument which can be
made to penetrate cloudland and bring
down q record from it, precisely as the
modern deep sounding apparatus is sent
to the bottom OF the Atlantic and re.
turns with a faithful record of what is 60.
ing on in the abyssal waters. New

SENATOR TELLER INTERVIEWED

Upon his arrival in Denver the other
day from Washington, Senator Teller
was interviewed and among other things
said: 1.-THE Treasury will soon be short
of ready money, however, and has the
remedy in coming $50, 600, 600 Of bullion
into silver dollars. Since the coinage
OF silver was stopped by Secretary Fos-
ter $3.50, 0OO, 900 in bullion has accumu-
lated. From thirty to thirty-ive mill
ions of this could be coined and silver
certificates issued, representing the
dollars. 1t is an easy solution OF the
question for the Treasury Department.
A great deal Of the expense Of the Gov
eminent is now paid for in silver c%ertifi.
Gates. Two.thirds OF the Senators and
Congressman o get their pay in these,
and they buy just as much as the gold
would. The cause Of silver is growing.
There are now sixty bankers in New
York who are bimetallists openly or at
heart. A short time ago there were but
two. The cause Of silver is stronger in
Washington than ever before. The time
Of bimetallism is coming, but how soon
it is difficult to tell. Labor has not suf-
fered thus far so much as values in
farms, houses, mines and manufactures.
But il will soon feel the effect Of the
low price Of all products of soil and
shop. Il is inevitable"

In q fire you get very close down to
human nature, observes the New York
Sun. One night recently an apartment
house took FIRE. There was no time to
be lost by the inmates. A mother
scantily clad and crying took out her
two little children. A wife buttoned
herself in her long newmarket and ran,
leading her brown-eared setter. A de.
voted son and daughter on the top floor
dressed warmly their helpless old mother
OF eighty and waited to carry her if nee.
essary across the fire escape. One
woman put on a fur.lined cape over her
night dress and came forth with a trav.
cling bag filed with silver. A young
widow ran for her new Sunday frock
and took down the departed ones por-
trait. Another came forth fully
equipped as for church, in jacket, tipped
hat and crimps. Another young woman
left all of her belongings and fed in
her night dress, blistering her bare feet
on the cinders, and ran down the street
calling for a carriage. Another got her
valuables In a sealskin coat, and finding
the smoke not too threatening, fished out
her l~ong-tailed gown and the black silk
silhouttes Of her grandfather and grand
mother, which she knew she couldn't
replace. One man contented himself with
a bath robe; another dressed himself in
his four-in-hand tie and scarf pin. g.

will resign ?"

eye, she replied:

PARrIsANsHIp DECLINING.

One of the best signs Of a more i'm
proved tone in the political relations OF
Americans is the evident decline of par
tisanship. Time was, less than q gener-
alton ago, when q difference of opinion
on party questions was sufficient to
break up families, separate father from
SON and even husband from wife. Sec
tionalism was strong, and the fact that a
man came from . different State was
sufficient to make him an object Of ridi.
Guile or Of annoying taunts.
Now this has nearly all entirely disap.
peared and a cordial respect for each
Others opinions, al avoidance of subjects
upon which disagreements are likely and
. hearty corporation in good works are
the ordinary concomitants of American
political life. The personal character Of
candidates is scrutinized more closely
and their fitness for the immediate du-
ties Of their Office have become larger
factors with, the voters than their ad-
herents to some economical theory or
some ideal policy Of government. This
10 especially true in selections for judi
cial Offices where the party to which the
candidate belongs does not count for
much in the general result. This does
not involve any abandonment Of princi.
pie and is . most hopeful augury for the
future.-New York Herald.

ron THE ELEVATION OF THE
SENATE

Il is not at all strange that Senator
Hoar Of Massachusetts, should make
labored speeches against the right OF the
people to selec. their Senators by direct
vote. He is a representative Of one OF
the worst Of the evils tina. make change
necessary il we are to maintain popular
government. He does not represent the
people Of Massachusetts,, bat q few
m~illionaires. corporations and Insurers,
who will keep him in the Senate as long
as they may find him useful.
1t is not strange that the Senate
should be so degraded when for nearly q
generation il has been controlled by the
plutocrats Of tho country. They have
operated chiefly through the Republican
party, bu. they have shown in Ohio and
Wisconsin, If nowhere else, that they do
not particularly care what q man calls
himself as long as money can control his
election to the Senate and the interests
Of money control his course in the SEN
ate on every question between manhood
rights and money privileges.
The result Of this degradation can be
seen in the acts Of the Senate during
the whole OF the time il has been 50 con-
trolled, and 1t Is glaringly apparent in
the subservience to ~despotism which re-
suited in the confirmation OF the infa-
nous treaty for the surrender Of Rus
sian Democrats to the murderous ven
geance of the Muscovite tyrant. The
unspeskable disgrace Of that action
could never have come upon the Senate
if IL had not been so controlled by the
plutocracy. II is not strange that MUIR
derers, embezzlers and men wearing an
alias should sit in q body that can give
such Q vote.
The interests Of the American people
and the liberties Of all mankind demand
the redemption of the Senate from the
control Of the base aud inscriptions
class who. after accommodating immense
fortunes by various forms Of extortion,
use their ill-gotten money to control in
politics and to destroy the liberties Of
the people. As long as these can con-
troll the Senate it will represent not the
but the degradation Of the States.
The only chance Of restoring ii to re-
spectability and usefulness lies in so
changing the manner of the election Of
its members as to give the people greater
opportunities to defeat the will Of the
ignorant, corrupt and brutal class Of
who have set themselves up as
over the United States by right of
the frauds, robberies and extortions
which have made them millionaires.-
