sentiment uttered by Senator
Hill is more than any one in
Washington can truthfully I'M
dertake to say. Senator Mills
has been it is reported selected
to make specific reply to HIPS
speech. If it is made it will
probably be very bitter as there
has been bad blood between the
two men ever since Hill denounc-
ed Mills in the democratic eau
Gus at which the revision of the
tariff bill was ordered.
The decision Of the democratic
caucus to count quorum in the
House was not a surprise to
close observers Of things in that
body, Notwithstanding repeated
assertions OF prominent demo-
Gratis, including Speaker Crisp,
that they would never no such a
thing. Everything has tended
that way since the regular SEES
sion began. Ex-Speaker Reed
and the republicans have made
no secret of their desire to force
the counting Of the quorum if
possible, and the number of dem
ocrats who openly advocated such
a step has constantly increased
as the necessity became more ur-
gent, and the virtual tie-up
which has been on for more than
three weeks, with the exception
of two or three hours, was the
last straw. Something had to
be done or else the majority
must confess to the country it's
inability to carry on the public
business. That something was
the action O, the caucus author
izing the confnittee on Rules to
prepare a rule for the counting
of a quorum And to compel the
attendance OF members. The
democrats are, of course, tainted
by their oppohents who charge
them with having surrendered.
1t is tie general opinion, howev-
er, that the democrats have done
the best thing they could under
the circumstances. They can
not be tainted any more than
they have been for their inabili-
ty to do business because OF their
failure to keep a quorum Of their
own. Now, az an offset to the
taunts they at least have the sat
isfaction OF being able to do bus
mess without first obtaining the
consent Of the minority.

Washington Letter.
WASHINGTON, April 20, 1894.

One more week Of set speeches
on the tariff bill, and then the
actual fighting will begin, with
the taking up Of the schedules
of the bill for consideration. 1t
is not possible to even make an
intelligent guess at how long the
Senate viii take to go through
the bill, as every schedule in it
will be bitterly attacked by the
republicans and many of them
by democratic Senators. Gena-
tor Smith, of New Jersey, made
it plain in his speech today that
he stands very nearly, if not
quite, upon the same tariff plat
form as Senator Hill. However,
it is by no means certain that
either one Of them, or of the 9TH
er democratic Senators who are
known to be opposed to portions
of the bill, will in the end vote
against it. Many believe that it
is the amendment of the bill, not
its defeat, that they are working
for, and that whether they sue
coed or not they will on the final
vote support the bill whatever
its condition may then be. Sew
eral prominent republican Sena-
tors have privately expressed
that opinion.
Representative Breckenridge's
attempt to get vindication from
Washington jury was an igno-
minious failure. The jury rem
dered a verdict in Miss Pollard's
favor, awardidg her $4,000 for
damages. 1t is generally believ-
ed here that the verdict is all
she will get, as it is understood
that Col. Breckenridge has no
property that she can get at.
The people of Washington have
not taken sides with Miss Pol
lard in this case, although the
sentiment against Col. Brecken-
ridge has been intense and the
verdict has been generally en-
dorsed. Col. Breckenridge says
he has been treated unfairly by
the public, and reiterates his de-
termination to make a fight to
be returned to Congress, and, it
is said, instead of taking his STAT
in the House, will in a few days
go to Kentucky and begin a per-
sonal canvass of his district,
seeking vindicatjon from his con-
stituents.
Senator PETERS position on
the tariff bill is thus, in nut
shell, summed up by himself: II
am opposed to the bill now be-
fore us, because it Discriminate
against the people | represent;
because it removes the duty from
the farmers wool while retain
ing it on the manufacturers
cloth, and because, while | favor
the income tax az a good step in
the right direction, this bill does
not go far enough. The bill,
taken as a whole, ! do not re-
gard as any improvement on the
law now in force, and as to wool
and sugar it is much worse"
And Mr.. PETER very truly and
significantly added; "How many
votes will be cast when the bill
is put upon its passage will de-
pend on what changes are made
in the meantime
Senator Hills tariff speech
easily double discounts any
speech yet made on the subject,
so far as circulation ia concern
Ell. Requests are being receiv
e / from all sections for copies Of
the speech and it is icing sent
cut by thousands. Whether
this demand is caused by curios-

The pegging or marking Of drinking
cups was introduced by st. Dunstan to
check the incorporate habits of the
times by preventing one nan from TAX
ing a larger draft than his companions.
But the device proved the e of in
creasing the evil it was intended to
remedy, for, refining upon st. Dunstan's
plan, the most abstemious were required
to drink precisely to a peg or pin,
whether they could soberly take such a
quantity of liquor or not. To the use
of such cups may be traced the origin
of many of our popular phrases. When
a person is much elated, we will say,
He is in a merry PIN" and He is a
peg too low" when he is not in good
spirits. On the same principle we talk
of .:taking a man down a peg" when
We would check fo~rwardness. -Sala's

When Hiram Maxim. the famous in
ventor, lived in Sangerville, anxious
mammas used TO warn their hopefuls
not to play with that wicked Maxim
boy" In fact, young Maxim grew up
under the doubtful reputation of being
the very worst boy in the neighborhood.
This isn't said fer the purpose of en-
o~ouraging any other Maine incorrigibles
who are in the depths of their misdeeds.
II Hiram had been a perfectly good lit
tie boy and had devoted his time to
studying his lessons, he might have had
that flying machine all completed by
this time.
Hiram used to work at carriage
painting in Abbot and was hired by
d. ID. Flynt. He was an artist with the
brush. One day a man called to see
F1ynt while the latter was out. There
has been a man in TO see you," said
young Maxim. What's his name:'
II don't know, but that's how he
looks, and the boy pointed to a board
on which he had roughly daubed a face,
Il forgot TO ask him his name, " said
the boy, land so | drew that" Flynt
knew his man.-Lewiston Journal.

Women as Farmers.

California boasts of a number of--
On farmers who manage large estates,
make money and keep healthy and hap
by. The comforts of farm life here are
greater than hey are in the east, and
there is a possibility of gaining more
than a mere living. Some of the wom-
en- farmers have won more han mere
local fame. Mrs. Theodosia Shepherd
of Ventura is known in the east as a
cultivator of California flower seeds and
bulbs. Mrs. Strong is known far and
wide as the woman who makes a good
income by raising and selling pampas
grass. Mrs. E. p. Buckingham of Va
caville is an orchardist whose fruit
commands the highest price in eastern
markets.
Another successful agriculturist is
Mrs. Georgia Mcbride. A dozen years
ago she was an invalid, a widow, poor,
with four boys to bring up. She knew
nothing of fruit raising, but with fem
mime recklessuess she purchased SO acres
of land near San Jose and set it out as
an orchard. Now she is prosperous,
healthy and wealthy. as the wage earn
ers go, and a enthusiastic advocate of
farming for women.-San Francisco
