HuSdEHOUAt6u Ihihs
Several months ago some ways,
who had no regard for the infrmi-
ties of the dear old party, got out q
neat little pamphlet bearing the title
SO pleasing and seductive to demo-
cratic eyes: "What Congress has
done" Its pages were entirely
blank.
An Augusta friend forwarded
copy to Hon. J. c. G. Black, who
returned it with its pages filled with
manuscript notes enumerating what
congress had done, and if our men,
Dry serves us right, according to the
worthy major, the actions of con-
gress consisted largely in his tireless
efforts to secure office for political
friends.
This claim of the major seemed to
be borne out by facts.
But now comes General Wheeler
of Alabama, and takes issue with the
major. General Wheeler usually
makes a clean sweep He is
thorough gong man and ne ex-
hausts the field where he goes along.
Nothing remains where he takes a
hand. From the time when he first
came into note as the leader of the
intrepid cavalry boys who made
clean sweep of hen-roosts and pig
pens to his last raid in behalf of de-
mocracy, there remains nothing for
the man who would follow him. Ac-
cording to the Huntsville Argus,
the valiant general claims that this
congress has passed twelve different
and distinct acts which entities it to
the lasting gratitude Of the people;
or at least to a sufficient amount to
send him back to congress.
Beginning with the repeal of the
federal election laws as the first
measure, the general gradually un-
folds the whole tale of democratic
-beneicence and gracefully retires
after the performance with the load
Of gratitude they owe the dear old
party duly impressed upon the peo-
pie. The general is very accurate in
his statements, and makes no claim
not fully substantiated by facts. Thus
number six he claims that congress
has passed law retaining 48,000,-
600 acres Of land, worth 81, 100000
900; number eleven, that congress
has abolished thousands of offices SO
as to reduce government expenses
many millions; number ten, that the
house has reduced the tax on nearly
everything bought by farmers from
one-half to one-tifth the tax formerly
exaoted
sugar-coated talk is cheap, and
Mr.. Wheeler doubtless counts on the
election being passed before the far
mers will realize how the democrats
have reduced the tariff, in the ad
vanced price they will pay for their
sugar.

cluslyely democratic administration
demonstrates the fact that their
pledges OF "aigid economy" have
been kept like all their other pledges.
Who does not remember how pa
theticalIy eloquent the democratic
campaign orators before the last
election grew when expatiating upon
republican extravaganza and that
wicked billion dollar congress.
1t was q crime againt the tax-pay-
ers which demanded that they be
hurled from power and honester men
be sent to ill their place.
And the people did it.
They elected democratic presi-
dent and a congress with a demo-
cratic majority in both branches,
pledged to rigid economy" The
reigas Of government were taken out
of the hands Of extrayagant repub-
lioans and placed in the hands Of
economical democrats.
Then the "rigid economists" went
TO work, and the dear democratic
constituents prepared to mock at the
republican br ethren and their wick
eddy extrayagant "biIlion dollar CON
gress."
