The tariff bill as it is reported 10 the

e0terie, of protection democrats ia the
senate with additional duties after the
bill was was sent 10 that body. For
example, Mr. Murphy must be placated
with an additional ten Per cent on collars
and cuffs. Notwithstanding free raw
material was the fundamental principal
rof tariff reform as as generally uutier-
stood. MessFs. German, Gibson, Faulk-
her and Camden would be satisfied with
nothing less than 40 cents ton ON coal

only necessary to say that the forty
cents per ton is sixty per cent more than
the entire cost of mining Il ton of coal

was to the true nefoFmer will be infinitely
less satisfactory when it is further
burdened By additions made by the sen-
ate. The most that can be said for it, is.
that it is a step in the right direction,
and infinitely preferable to the Mckinley

The case of The State Oh the relation
of Z. ID. Miller, District Attorney. vs..
ID. j. Reid, was again called on Monday
the 18th inst, isefoEe Hon. James Andrews
Of alexandria, neither Jndge Fonrnet OF
any member Of the Lake Charles har be
ing qualified 30 try the ease, for the rea-
son that they were retained, either Oh
one side or the otheE.
This was a special term of the Twelfth
Judicial District court called to try this
particular eanse. A AsFeeiaI veniro calling
for thirty good men and true was issued
who all answered to their names. At
this stage of the proceedings it was dis
covered that an eTr0F had been made,
from the fact that while it would be COM
Petent for the sitting judge to order a
special term of the court to try eases as
they appear Oh the docket, no authority
was vested in him to call a special term
of the court for the trial Of any one par
ticular case.
This point being raised and argued at
length, vas taken under adyisenent lay
Judge Andrews until the next morning
when he decided that the point was well
taken, and that the case must 60 over
until the next regular term of the eourt.

WHILE returning from a visit
to one of his patients out IN the
country on Tuesday night last,
DR.. w. j. Jones met with a very
strange mishap. When he
reached Stony Creek he at
tempted to drive across as usual,
but when his horse stepped on
the bridge it at once gave way,
carrying the horse with it and
throwing the Doctor between the
buggy wheels. 1t was very dark
and when the Doctor had picked
himself up out of the water he
found that something bad. was
the matter with his horse as he
was struggling and making the
water fly in every direction. On
examination he found that the
horse had got his foot caught be-
tween a crack in the bridge, and
without something was done and
done quickly, would surely
drown; SO without preparing
himself as people do when they
go in swimming, he plunged in
the water, and proceeded to ex-
tr1cate the animal, which he did
with much difficulty. TIC
say that the Doctor was mad is
but putting it mildly. The wash
nm of the bridOo was OccaSiOnoC
by the recent heavy rains, but i
the bridge had been stationed as
it should have been it would have
take more than an ordinary
freshet to wash it up. Sucl
bridges are dangerous and liable
to result in somebody's death
or probably ruin some fine ami
NAL, and should have immediate
attention.

Stirring


WASHINGTON, July 23.-Sen-
ate.-Not for many years has the
Senate chamber, rich as it is in
historic "reminiscences, witnessed
a nor stirring spectacle than
that which took place there to-
day. The knowledge that Sena-
tor German was to take up the
gauntlet thrown down by Presi-
dent Cleveland al the feet Of Dem
ocratic Senators attracted to the
Capitol large parto of the visitors
and people of leisure who take
delight in the cOmbatS Of pOliti-
cal gladiators.
Mr. German was in his best
trim. Never did he acquit him
self of a task in connection with
his senatorial duties i'll a manner
as calculated to win praise for
himself. Without a note or mem
orandum to refer to, or to refresh
his memory he held the floor for
nearly three hours, exhibiting
powers of oratOry which few OF
his admirers would have given
him credit for. For.all that time he
was the central figure on which
every eye in the immense assem-
blage of spectators and Senators
was fixed. and to whose words
every ear was turned in close at
tention. He accused the Presi-
dent of ingratitude to the mer
who had stood by him in the
filth and slime" of his first cam
paign and labor and wealth to Sc
cure his second election (refer
ring in this connection to Sena
tor Price. of Ohio, especially
and asserted that the conference
bill as prepared by Senators
Jones of Arkansas, and Vest O
Missouri, and as finally passed
by the Senate, had been submitted
on several occasions to the Sec
rotary of the Treasury and to th'
President and had been approved
by both of them; and that it wa:
not until after the publication o
the Wilson letter that the hostili
ty Of the President to the Senate
bill had been known or suspected
Mr. Germans assertions on tina
point were fully corroboratet
and with all necessary detail b,
Messrs. Jones and Vest, and alst
by Mr.. Harris, who describe,
two interviews which he had wit
the President-the last of then
while the bill was in conference
from which he had come ava,
with the distinct understandin;
that the President was strongl,,
in favor of the bill as it passe
the Senate, IF no better term
cOuld be obtained"
