Washington Letter.
(From our Regular Correspondent

Washington. d. c., Sept. IA, 1894.
Representative Grosvenor, of Ohio,
who took an active part in the Maine
campaign. thus sits down on the demo-
cratic attempts to belittle the great re-
publican vistory: Contrary to the re-
ports as to the lacl- of organization
among the democrats in Maine, the
democratic party made strong cam
paign. Their most popular man was
pitted against Mr.. Reed for Congress.
and he discussed the tariff on every
stump; their candidate for governor
made thorough canvass of the state,
as did host of lesser lights, and the
populists delivered more speeches than
did all the other parties combined.
This shows that the republicans had no
walk over. The main question dis
cussed on the republican side was the
tariff. On that we made our fight.
The Hawaiian affair entered into the
campaign, but did not cut much figure.
The live issue was the tariff. and but
little else was talked of. Gen. Gros-
venor believes that the example of
Maine and Vermont will be followed
by the entire country, excepting always
the southern states. in November. and
that the election of q republican Presi-
dent two years hence is as certain as
that the sun will rise tomorrow.
Mr.. o. j. King. an Omaha business
man now visiting Washington, says of
the situation in his state: The repub-
licans of Nebraska are not going to win
without hard struggle this year, but
it is my opinion that they will gain
decisive victory over the democrats and
populists. The fight that Editor Rose.
water, of the BEE, is making against
Tom Majors for Governor. is hurting
Rosewater far more than it is damag-
ing the candidate. In fact, l think it
will make many vote for Majors. for
while his assailant has some following,
there is larger element that is bitterly
opposed to him. They say that he has
used has paper Systematically, to casti-
gate his enemies, and that his opposi-
ton to the ticket is the outeropping of
spite"
Chairman Babeock, of the Republi-
can Congressional Campaign Commit
tee, was asked what ne thought was
the meaning of the big republican ma
iority in Maine, aud be replied: What
does it mean? Why, there can be but
one meaning to it. There has been
change OF conviction way down in the
hearts ef the people. 1t shows that the
people were thoroughly worn ont aad

These figures, with the exception of
those for 1894, represent the amount
which the state administrative has
found it necessary to raise by tax to
meet its expenditures in excess of the
revenues II receives from the tax on
railroads, insurance companies. etc.
The tax of S240, 900 does not stand for
the amount of expenditures which the
present administration estimates will be
necessary, in addition to the other or
binary sources of revenue, but it pro-
poses to use also S7S2, $50 Of funds con
slsting of the moneys received from the

turning to toe states the direct war tax
levied by congress in 1861, aud from
the former state treasurers. When this
is added to the state tax of S240,000, it
makes the expenditures estimated for
1894, in addition to the usual revenues
collected from corporations, etc., $685.
$40, so that the real average of expen.
ditures during the four Republican aud
four Democratic years will stand thus:
Average for Republican years ......s 92s. 4f7. "a
Average for Democratic years - i,OO2 2I1 IS
Here certainly is no evidence OF econ
omy. Assuming that the sum estimat-
ed for the expenditures of 1894 will
prove sufficient, which is extremely
doubtful, we have the democratic adj
ministration requiring for its expendi-
lures, an average of over $4,000 an
nually. during four years, more than
the average required by the preceding
Republican administrations. The in
cident that the state received, from ex-
traordinary sources. large sum which
could be used for current expenses this
year is no evidence of economy in the
management of its affairs. The expen.
ditures are just as great as if no money
had come from those unusual sources.
The democratic administration there.
fore gives no evidence of economy but
the reverse. 1t can claim no credit for
the money received from the general
government, since that was due to the
action of Republican congress and
president. But it boasts that it has COL
lected large sum from former Repub.
llcan state treasurers which they re-
tanned, believing they were justly en-.
titled to it, but paid over to the state
when the Supreme court decid ed
against their claim. The state has re-
ceived that money because the former
state treasurers are honorable men who
promptly meet their obligations.

A Fairy Tale of Economy.

The roster gang of politicians are
trying to prOpitiate disguised people
with fsiry story of their economy IN
the management Of the administration
of the state affairs. In evidence OF
their thrift. hey point to their decision
TO levy for the coming year a state tax
of only S240.000. while for each of the
two preceding years they levied a tax
of Sl.018,720. 1t is an old trick OF pol
ticIans 20 cut down taxes Immediately
before an election. making up for any
deficiency likely to follow by an in.
creased Levy in the ears when no cleo
ton is pending. Here are the figures
which they parade before the public as
proof that they have been more eco
nomical than the Republicans when the
latter were in power.

Coalition Between the knights of Labor
and American Railway Union.
CHICAGO, June 15.-When the conyen-
ton of the American Railway union was
called to order in Uhlich's hall it was be-
hind closed doors, none but regularly nc
credited delegates being admitted. A
secret session Ind been agreed on Tor the
purpose Of allowing General Master
Workman James X. Sovereign of the
Knights of Labor to speak on a plan for a
coalition between the knights and the
American Railway union. Why this
should be done with closed doors was not
apparent, but it was said to have been ut
the request of Mr.. Sovereign.
After the secret session every one was
willing to tell what Ind been done. and
all seemed to be enthusiastic over the
prospects of u close utilization between
the two organizations. 1t is generally
agreed among labor men that the action
Of the railway men in agreeing upon a
plan of utilization with the knights is a
most important step, and that it will
greatly strengthen both organizations.
The coalition Of the Knights of Labor and
the American Railway union is looked
upon as the beginning Of relentless war
fare Il. tho iabof world. This will proba-
bly, be between the knights of Labor and
the American Federation Of Labor, and
between the American Railway union and
the old br0therhoods Of railway men.
