SATURDAY, JUNE l6. 1894.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1894-11-12

The house usually adopts an order for
the printing of several thousand copies
OF the eulogies, at government expense.
These are bound eXpensively and make
interesting reading for the families of
deceased statesmen. They send copies
to their friends; and, altogether, it
costs the government considera BILE
money to eulogize deceased statesmen,
without benefiting the public. The
public money ought not to be expended
in that manner. The eulogy business
has been overworked. 1t is time to stop
it. The speeches on such occasions are
usually delivered two months or more
after the death and burial of con-
gresham, and there is not even the
element of pathos in the proceedings.
There is really no excuse for official
eulogies.
During the debate on the bill making
appropriat tions for the District of Co
lumbia, Senator Blackburn, of Ken
lucky, delivered a speech which ap-
pears in the Congressional Record in
full, and which shows the existence of
a peculiar state of affairs in what hRs
heretofore been known as charitat;e e
institution. The senate was consider
ing clause in the appropriation bill
making provision for the expenses of
an institution known as the board o.:
children's guardians, when Senator
Blackburn said: 81 undertake to say,
and l will submit the record evidence
here to prove it, that there never was in
this district, or anywhere else upon this

ABUSED BY Mr.. TALBERT.
How the South Carolinian At
tackled His Colleagues.
He Seems to Have Poor Opinion of the
Average Congressman - How Speeches
Are Reported-Priyileges Which
Need Curtailment.
Especial Washington Letter. !

Rapid stenographers walk from place
to place on the floor of the house of
representatives, with books in their
hands, and take down every word
which is uttered by members of the
house during debates When one ste
nographer has been thus engaged for
half an hour another expert comes to
his relief. Then the man whose note
book is full of talk goes to a phono-
graph on the lower floor and shouts the
words of the statesmen into the ma
chine. The speedy young lady type
writer then takes the phonograph and
transcribes the speeches, and they are
sent to the government printing office
On the following morning the big Con-
gressional record appears with every
word reproduced just as uttered on the
floor of the house. The same procedure
occurs in the senate every day, so that,
with the aid of stenographers, phono-
graphs, typewriters, printers and
pressmen, the words, sentences, para
graphs, entire speeches of senators and
representatives are reproduced and
kept so that they may be read many
years after the statesmen are dead and
forgotten.
A great many things are said in de-
bate which ought not to be said; be-
cause they are not strictly true. The
statesmen usually talk for the benefit
of their constituencies, rather than for
the purpose of influencing congress
sional action. They talk with view
of having their speeches printed, to be
OF
constituents. For example, the Friday
night sessions of the house which are de-
voted to the consideration of private
pension claims are wasted. There is sell
dom a quorum present to do business.
At one Of these Friday night meetings
recently, Congressman Talbert, of
South Carolina, became angry because
SO few members were present, and he
said: They will have to give up their
claw-hammer coats, their euchre par
ties and entertainments and come here.
We are in a tremendous condition in
this house, which reminds me of what
/ once heard of a preacher. He said:
Now, | want to preach to all good
Christians little while, and want all
those who are not good Christians to
get out; and I will pause for them to
get out Not single man stirred.
We'll, he said, 4 want to preach to all
sinners; and all those who are good
Christians and not sinners will please
get up and go out Not a single soul
stirred. Well he said, 1 want to
preach to all those who are lul1ewarm;
all those who are good Christians and
sinners will get out Not soul
stirred. The preacher was nonplussed.
Then he got up and said You are in a
horrible fix So it is with a number
of us. Dozens Of members are at home
making more promises. Republicans,
democrats and populsts are doing the
same thing. Here we are without a
quorum on account of our members at
homo fencing. And think the people
and our constituencies are like that
preacher found his congregation. They
are in horrible fix So, Mr.. Chair
man, think we ought to have n call OF
the house and send out at once to the

Platt intended when he nominated Nor

tig him elected governor, and they know
that Morton's barrel will be on tap at

saloons all over the city and to the
euchre parties and bring the soldier
lovers here, and let us pension the SOL
diers or stop this hypocritical can't"
That sort of speech may read we'll
down In Mr. Talbert's South Carolina
district, but it does not read well to
people who know that it Is both untrue
and unfair. The members who do not
attend the Friday night sessions remain
away because they have other business
A very small percentage of them at
tend cuchre parties and attend enter
tainments in clawhammer coats. 1t is
unfair to have sent forth the inference
that the absent members could be found
in "the saloons all over the city" Very
few members of fcongress are habitually
drinking men. The spirit of temper
ance Is abroad in the land, and states
men are strongly influenced by the eX-
istence of that spirit and sentiment
Mr.. Talbert knows this fact as well as
anybody. He knew that he was mis-
representing his fellow members when
he made that speech. 1t may make the
readers in his district believe that their
congressman is a strong temperance
man, and always on duty in the house,
but it is unfair for congressman to
build himself up at home by wholesale
misrepresentation Of his colleagues on
the floor of the house.
The Friday night sessions are not
in their remarkable absenteeism.
afternoons are set apart, by
the house, for the delivery OF
pm the life, character and pub
IS of deceased congressman.

There was an unusually sharp flash
of lightning, a stunning peal of thun-
der and sharp, sudden pain, and a
West Gouldsboro young lady gave a
shrek and jumped into the middle of
the floor. Her friends thought she had
been killed, but when the excitement
had calmed down enough for an inves-
tigation everybody was relieved, for
then it was found that the shock had
been inflicted not by the lightning but
by hornet, which had chosen that in
nuspicious time for action.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, November 0, 1S9-

w aSnlngt0n, November y, 1874.
Senator Faulkner, chairman of the
Democratic congressional campaign COM
mittee, rises from the wreck to say few
words, which are both explanatory and
wise. He says: "The history of poll
tics will show that every landslide is the
result of dissatisfaction, discomfort and
want of confidence of the members of the
majority party, whose actions produces
the result that surprises and astonishes
the people-not by voting the opposing
ticket, but simply by remaining away
from the polls. The result of this cleo
ton when ascertained will, l am sure,
verify this conclusion. We have as
many voters in the country as we had in
1892, who believe in the principles of
the Democratic party, but the recent
business paralysis, financial slringency,
party dissensions, ordinations and re-
examinations resulted in such apathy as
to cause the stay-at-home vote to pro-
duce the surprising result. If we hope
for success in 1896 we should maintain
with fearlessness and determination the
attitude we assumed in 1892; let personal
and party chickering's of the past bury
their dead, and unite in an earnest eff
fort to harmonic those differences that
have so seriously affected our organiza-
ton.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1894-11-12

While few Democrats of any promin-
ence care to be personally quoted on the
subject of the election, every one with
whom your correspondent has come in
contact agrees that the greatest single
source of Democratic troubles has been
the lack of harmony within the party,
which was made so painfully apparent
during the last session of congress. The
result of the election is merely an appli-
cation of the proverb "United we stand,
divided we fall" and the lesson must be
taken to heart and profted by if the
party calculates to 90 into the campaign
of '96 with reasonable chance to win.
"a house divided against itself must
fall"
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1894-11-12

President Cleveland is quietly attend
ing to his official duties just as though
there had never been such thing as an
election. He hasn't said word on the
subject to anyone who had authority to
make it public, but it is certain that he
has been doing a lot of thinking, and
those who have been able to read be-
tween the lines will be able to form a
pretty good idea of the trend of his
thoughts when, in a few weeks, his an
nual message to congress shall be made
public. While he has said nothing pub
licly, his closest personal friends have
left the impression upon those with
whom they have talked that the presi-
dent does not consider himself in any
way responsible for the unexpected
Democratic defeat.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1894-11-12

The returns from the elections were
calling enough to Democrats in Wash
ington, but there was another thing con-
nected Herewith that was even more
calling to them than the returns. That
was, that some of the loudest cheers
from the crowds which surrounded the
newspaper bulletins with all the eager
ness of presidential election, when the
news was favorable to the Republicans,
came from the mouths of Republicans
who hold office under the Democratic
administration.

Washington Democrats, who all belong
to the never-say-die family, think they
are playing in hard luck indeed, this
week. They stood up under the cleo
ton returns with all the stoicism with
which they have in the past received a
long string of national defeats, comfort
ing themselves with the reflection "we'll
lick 'em next time" but they have
heard something since that has caused
not few of them to use language not at
all appropriate for an address to a Sun
day school class. A few days ago man
born in Washington, and who has been
Democrat all his life, was appointed
postmaster, the term of the Republican
incumbent having expired AS he will
be the first postmaster the local Demo-
Gratis have had since the war; it was
perfect natural that some of his Demo-
cratic friends should entertain the hope
of succeeding some of the numerous Re-
publican employees of the postoflice af-
ter the Democratic postmaster takes hold,
and just as natural that he should look
forward with pleasure to appointing
them. 1t may be imagined then how
they felt when informed that a new
order, filtered through the Republican
adjunct known as the civil service COM
mission, limited the patronage of the
postmaster to about ten men. S.
