WILSON'S wANDERINGs
The Tariff Rerormer Has a Good
Time in Louisiana.

The Tariff Reformer Has a Good
Time in Louisiana.
WASHINGTON. May 1l.-Representa-
tive Price. of Louisiana, is back. after
two weeks at home during which he
accompanied Chairman Wilson, of the
ways and means committee, over the
southern portion of the state. ut was
a trip of rusticating and pleasure"
said Mr.. Price, land politics were
strictly eschewed. In inviting him to
come to the state I telegraphed that
he would have a quiet time and
there would he no politics. Our
people had no disposition to intrude
any of their views upon him. Repub-
licans joined with Democrats in treating
him as a guest, and all took pleasure in
extending the distinguished visitor
every courtesy. We went up and down
the rivers, visited the jetties, inspected
the salt mine and the sugar plantations,
and through 1t all Mr.. Wilson was
treated as an interested visitor. I did
not hear tariff mentioned to him once.
The people Of Louisiana felt it would
be out of place to attempt to draw Mr..
Wilson into discussion of the tariff
pleasure and the restoration of his
health. Mr.. Wilson brought back with
him crystals of salt from The famous
New Iberia mines. recently developed,
which threaten to revolutionize the salt
industry. He went down in salt mine
and witnessed the blasting of solid
masses of salt. 1t is in solid beds like
coal. The bOringS are down 1000 feet,
and have not yet struck the bottom of
the solid mass Of salt.

MONEY FOR THE NAVY.
The House. Discusses the Annual
Approximation Bill,

WASHINGTON, May 11.-After action
on some minor bills the house at 12:l7
p. m. today went into committee of the
whole to consider general appropriation
bills (Mr. Richardson, of Tennessee. in
the chair, and the naval appropriation
bill was taken up. Mr.. Boutelle ad.
vocated liberality towards the navy to
Continue the good work commenced
under Secretary Chandler. Mr.. Baker
'tPop.. Kan.) who followed Mr.. Boutelle,
spoke briefly ON the bill from the Pop
ulist point of view. but his speech was
soon diverted into a tariff speech
frequent Interruptions. The discussion
was closed by Mr.. Cummings, chairman
of the naval affairs committee, who re-
;vived the old charges against the Robe
son regime. Mr.. Reed delivered sar-
castle reply to MIR. Cummings. He
ridiculed the applause which had fol-
lowed the close of Mr.. Cummings
speech, asserting that it was the ap-
plause of men who were ignorant of the
facts. Tine speech Of the gentleman
from New York was merely a rehash of
an attack which he had made on him
{Mr. Reed) in the Fifty.first congress
when he was unable to reply to it,
even If he had chosen to do so. Repeti-
ti0ns of failures never add successes.
He was surprised that Mr.. Cummings
should resurrect his charge. II made
no mention Of the Bedford scandal"
interrupted Mr.. Cummings. II have
never such large majority as when
the navy yards are in the possession of
the Democrats" retorted Mr.. Reed. ''If
Iwere willing to sacrifice the country
fur my good. l would like to have the
Democrats in power all the time." The
debate. continued some time longer,
taking on very acrimonious character.
and charges and c0unter-charges of
colonization" in the navy yards were
freely passed between Mr.. Reed, Mr..
Boutell6 and Mr.. Cummings.
At O'Clock, this being Friday, the
house. according to custom, took re-
cess until O'clock, the evening session
to be devoted to private bills on the cal
-endar.

themselves into this order some
seven years ago, and already

filled the house with their bright faces,
and the fweet touch of femininity sur
rounded and made pleasing all the ex-

many Iiotabies were observed in them.
The benignant face of Chief Arthur
was seen in one of them, but the ladies'
monopoliZed most of them. On the
stage sat all who were to participate.
and darting back and forth were dozens
of pretty children who were to sing the
song of welcome. A brighter or pref
tier picture than that presented in the
opera house yesterday would be hard

bers of your auxiliary divisions of St.
Paul and Minnesota ex end to you our
hearts and homes are the followers of
both orders. The word welcome"
which you will hear many times
throughout our programme, but feebly
expresses the welcome our hearts would
give you. OF the b. of l.. E. need say
naught. for your history is well known.
OF the q. l. A. let me say a
few words. Wives of few of
the brave kings of the throt-
tie saw the broad track in the
wake of the all-powerful locomotive as
1t bore our brotherhood husbands OH to
fame. We banded together to aid and
protect each other and stepped upon
your track that we might with our
fingers pluck any weed that dared to
grow thereon. Comparatively speaking,
your auxiliaries are but in their in
fancy; yet our charity star is we'll up in
the meridian, throwing out bright rays
of light upon our track that we may see
to remove any distractions that may
come in our way while on our onward
march to overtake our brotherhood in
aiding the widows and orphans of fallen
brothers. Perhaps we aim too high, but
we do aim to some day stand side by
side with our brotherhood in the per.
fOrmance of acts of sweet charity.
Again thrice welcome are all while with
your friends in st. Paul.
Then after brief intermission, dur
Ing which the orchestra played. the
children were arranged on the stage to
give the song of welcome. They were
all children of st. Paul members of the
Brotherhood, and numbered about
seventy-fve. The girls predominated,
and were dressed in white. Maud Nc
Lindon was the accompanist, and the
gong was written for the occasion by
Col. Ed OCOnnor, OF Missouri, who is
better known under his nom de plume
bf Mickey Free" Guided by pre-
beutor, the little ones sang we'll the
lrand chorus:
Where the Father of Waters rolls on to the
sea,
The sweetest of all cities stands.
It opens its arms to the B. of L. z.
