DEED ~ THE CoMMlTTEE.-Durin@
one of the sessions of the House of
Delegates on Friday Mr.. Bendheim
moved that the committee on the Ches-
apeake and lis Tributaries be discharg-
cd from the further consideration Of
The bill providing for the protection of
ilsh in the Potomac river by preventing
fishing with any fixed device in the
mouth Of said river and the mouth Of
its bays and creeks. Mr.. Hathaway,
of Lancaster, objected to the motion,
saving that the bill if passed would
seriously interfere with the fishing in
that great river and he thought it was
absurd to have these provisions apply
To Il river which at its mouth, was
about twelve miles wide. The House
sided with him and rejected the motion.
Since then Mr.. Hathaway has received
about Il dozen kilograms from people
who are opposed to the measure aud
who are anxious to appear before the
committee to their give views.
They all ask their representative, Mr..
hathaway, to use his influence to pre-
Vent the passage of the bill. There is
hardly any possibility that the bill will
cver leave the custody OF the commit

VICE SUBMISSIONS.

It has not escaped the observation of even the most careless that horse-rac- ing. other kiuds of racing, prize fight ing and other chance operations have increased, and that the interest of the public has also increased. An unfail- ing index of this Is the press. Whole sides of the great dailies are taken up with full accounts of base ball games, yacht and other boat races, etc., etc. New games are invented and old ones played under new names. The cause of this is in the severe enforcement of laws against lotteries and some other games. They are due to the efforts of vice suppression societies.
 It was the illustrious Sidney Shit
 one of the greatest and best men Great Britain ever produced, a most revered minister of the church of England, who predicted that just such results must  flow from 8 great vice suppression so- ciety of London. He knew human na- ture and all it's springs of action. It is only through wholesome public opinion constantly educated through the pulpit, press and rostrum, that so- ciety can be held as it ought to be held within due bounds as to morality, in- dustry and all the social virtues. So- ciety is naturally conservative. The more we try to make people virtuous by law and by the spy and informer system the more do we weaken the efforts of press and pulpit and schools, which are the natural agents for exer- cising what is called moral suasion.
 When society looks to the police and informers for conserving it's morals it gets into bad way. The field of these officials is where crime abounds; their place is to hunt down what the law calls mala in Sc, and such misde- meanors as must be punished for the peace, health and comfort of the con- munity. Nowadays new offenses are being created industriously by meddle- some law makers, while it is notorious that real crime abounds more and more -offenses that every mans conscience

his kind.

SAYS THE Albuquerque Citizen: "Gen. A. J. Sampson has spent the past two weeks campaigningin northern Arizona. Large and enthusiastic audiences greet ed him. No more convincing speaker ever campalgued the west. Doubters were comformed in the Repu blican po- licy of protection and many Democrats acknowledged that they never had under stood the question and being convinced that protection is right, they proposed hereafter to vote the Republican ticket. The general is a brilliant orator, a superior reasoner and is thoroughly entertaining. His speeches too, were varied. For two hours at time he electrified his audiences. His apt illus trations convulsed the hearers holding them to the close. The Citizen's staff representative has heard all of the gen. erals speeches and can conscientiously say that no speaker he has ever heard excelled this gentleman.

of the objects of protection is to lessen the cost to the consumer of the neces- saries of life while affording protection to American industries.
 The relief given to the people by the remission of tariff on raw sugar was immediately felt and appreciated throughout the country. Sugar IS one of the necessaries of life that we have never produced in quantities sufficient for home consumption, but we have been dependent upon foreign countries for the bulk of our supply, which en- tailed the export of some hundred million dollars of gold every year.
 The mere retention and circulation of this money at home would be of vast and, hoping that such desirable ob- jecc might be consummated, it was the policy of the party of protection to en- courage the production of a supply of raw sugar sufficient to meet our home requirements by the encouragement of a, bounty to take the place of the pro- lection hitherto afforded by tariff. Thus the double purpose was achieved of stimulating the growth of an Ameri- can industry, while cheapening the price of one of the necessaries of life to the people.
 No wiser statesmanship than this could emanate from any political party, and naturally It was beyond the appre- citation of the party of free-trade. "perfidy and dishonor," which has violated an agreement or contract made by the United States government with the domestic producers of sugar and has increased it's cost to every indi- vidual in the country. The people have the opportunity of deciding for them selves, next month, whether they pre- fer free breakfast table, or taxed breakfast table, also of expressing their opinion upon the Democratic policy ol Jiscrediting a national agreement.
 Immediately that the party of protec. tion has the opportunity, 1t will be its proper and honorable policy to revert to the Mckinley sugar schedule in these respects. The protection that was given to the producers of American sugar should be restored in toto, so that any suspension of the National agree ment may be only temporary, the money honestly earned and honestly due under the tariff laws of 1890 being paid in full, and without any deduction whatever, to the producers of maple sorghum, beet or cane sugar whereso ever they may be located.

COST OF THE CRIMEAN WAR.
John Bull Paid an Enormous Price to Keep
 Russia Out of Turkey.

John Bull Paid an Enormous Price to Keep
 Russia Out of Turkey.
 On July F, 1856, the Crimea was final ly evacuated by the British forces after the war of over two years, says Spare Moments. All the remaining stores and the establishments having been embarked, company of the Fiftieth British regiment was posted outside the town of Balaclava to receive the Russian troops, and on their approach marched in with the Russian guard, which was composed of about fifty mounted Cossacks and a similar num- Der of Cossack infantry. The usual salute took place, the Russians placed sent1nels where they wished, and the English troops marched on board H. M. s. Algiers. Gen. Sir William John Codrington, chief in command of the forces in the Crimea, and who died in 1884, embarked with his personal staff at the same time. During this war the British lost $500 killed in action or died from their wounds; 4,244 of cholera, and nearly 16,000 who sue cumbed to other diseases, making total of 23, 744, of whom 270 were off cers. and besides these 2,S73 were dis abled. The loss of French allies was estimated at 63, 800 men, while the loss of the Russians on the opposite side was reckoned as high as 50O,000 men. The war added to the British national debt over S20O, 100000 Notwithstand- ing the enormous amount expended Britain asked from Russia no pecunia- ry compensation, nor gained one inch of land; but the defeat of the Russians kept them out of Constantinople and made the way to India and the east

ACCORDING to the United Stat

ACCORDING to the United States cen sus "2,647, ,157 women are wage work ers." That is, however, a meager showing of the working women of the land. The millions of mothers of the land are among the lands best workers, as are the men who use shovels and planes and blow and drive engines. The wife who makes home bright and cheerful and ministers to the wants of the family, at all hours and seasons, does as much as the father and husband who works his eight or ten hours, and holds the money he earns, as if he alone had earned it. There are multitudes of men who fail to appreciate woman's work or the large part she performs in fighting life's battles.

The Chinese Sailor.

The Chinese sailor isnot lover of dis cipline. He prefers perfect freedom, especially when the question of leave is concerned. Whom Capt. Lang had charge of the Chinese navy he discov- cred this weakness, and it gave him a considerable amount of trouble. He found ordinary methods of enforcing regularity utterly useless. Officers and men alike showed a total indifference to his orders where leave of absence was concerned Following the example of the emperor of Germany, he deter mined on a series of surprise visits, and on one of these occasions he found that many of the officers and men were on shore without leave. Determined to enforce discipline at any cost. he or dered all the delinquents to be placed under arrest when they returned. This was too much for the easy-going China men. That night every man jumped overheard and went home, utterly dis gusted with the service.

tells him are crimes. On all sides the golden mean is despised.
 It is that rare humorist, Thackeray, who said, "If somebody or some body Of savans would write the history of the harm that has been done in the world by people who believe them selves to be most virtuous, what a queer, edifyirg book it would be. and how the poor oppressed rogues might look up."
 The game of the vice oppressor is vice, and the more vice there is all the better for the Anthony Comstocks and his kind.

SCHOOL COMMITTEE.
The School for the Deaf and the Question
of Its Continuance.

A meeting of the School Committee
was held yesterday afternoon, Mayor
Baxter presiding, and all the members
but Mr.. Bradley being present. The
meeting was called to consider the con-
dition of the Portland School for the
Deaf, now that Miss Barton, the princi-
pal, has been taken away. A letter was
received from an old pupil of the school,
now in Boston, advocating making it a
state Institution. This letter having
been placed on file, DR.. Thompson
brought the matter directly to considera-
ton by saying that Miss Barton's death
had left the city face to face with the
question of continuing or abandoning
the school. He thought it was ques-
ton which should be maturely consid-
cred, and therefore moved that COM
mittee Of three be appointed, with pow
er to visit other cities as we'll as consult
with the governor and other state off
Gals. This motion was carried, and
Messrs. Blake. Superintendent Lord and
Brownson were appointed.
The committee voted to accept pic
ture of the National Capitol, which Mr..
NJ. A. Jewell has presented to be hung
in the new High School.
