A Congressional Incident.

Col. Dick Bright sergeant-at-arms Of the
United States Senate. is beginning to realize
that some OF the new tangled regulations rel
alive 70 who shall use the Senate elevators
are not only silly. but more or lese dangerous.
According to the Washington News, the col
onel had an experience with a Texas con-
gresham last Monday, which he will remem-
Der Tor long time TO come. Representative
HutchesOn went over TO the Senate to attend
the funeral Of the late Senator Vance. and
when the ceremonies ware over, and he
started to take an elevator on the Senate side
70 go TO the basement floor, he was informed
by the conductor that the elevator was for
the exclusive use OF the senators and newspa-
per correspondents. While the colloQuy
between the congressman and the ele-
vator conductor was going on Col
Bright came along, and in a most offensive
tone commanded the Texas congressman 10
go about his business and allow the elevator
man TO attend to his Mr. Hutcheson is
about one-hah the size of Col. Bright but
what he lacked in size he made up In cour-
age, and he quickly inquired of the Colonel
wnat ne had to do with itY The
colonel replied that he would place the con-
at once.
IF you undertake to do it thereu be
two funerals here to-day" said the
Texas congressman, and his whole form
indicated his purpose to carry out his threat.
Things were getting exciting by this time
and the bystanoers crowded up to see what
was going on.
I'm not do it myself" said the colonel
with trlte less assurance in his voice, but
III have this man do 1t for me-
III you do 1t will be at your peril" re-
sponded the member, quivering with sup
pressed excitement.
lrritated to the point of exploding, the
colorel turned to the officer, who had not in
terterred pto this time, and said:
ut that man under arrest
i cannot, SIR he replied This gentle
man is member of congress-
That makes no difference; you do as
say, said the colonel, angered beyond con-
troll.
He made motion forward. but as quick as
lightning Mr.. Hutcheson made a movement
toward that part Of his clothing where gentle
men from his part of the country are sup
posed to carry their guns. The CLEAN in his
eye and the earnestness in his manner seemed
10 cool the sergeantat-arms. He saw that he
mad run against the wrong man. Mr.. Hutche-
son had stepped back a pace or two and his
hand still remained in a suggestive place.
Come said the colonel, we don't want
any trouble; give me that" holding out his
hand.
Place your hand on me and you will get It
across your throat said the congressman.
Mr.. Bright then turned on his heel and en-
tered the elevator. MIR. Hutcheson turned to
the knot OF people that had been drawn by
the alteration and were waiting to see the
end of it, and appealed to them to know il
they did not think that he was justified in
what he had done. The nerve of the Texan
and his cool manner had already won the
crowd to his side, and with the assurance OF
all who had witnessed the quarrel that he was
In the right, he walked away.

Select CAPABLE Candidates.

The time is rapidly approaching for Sc
lecting legislative candidates. In a great
many counties the people are discussing
the merits of those who have been sug-
gested and those who have announced
their purpose of submitting their names
to the conventions of their respective dis
tricts and counties for the Senate and
House.
1t is a matter of the highest Importance
that capable men shall be sent to the
| legislature Wise laws contribute greatly
10 the states prosperity, and IN
wise laws do more than any
other thing TO check the states
growth in wealth and population. 1t is
| apparent, therefore, that every citizen
! has direct interest in having each dis
| trict represented in the Senate and each
! county represented in the House by men
of integrity and intelligence men who
are capable of comprehending what is
best for the whole people, and who have
the courage to do what they know to be
right. Ignorant men, though honest, are
about as fatal to good legislation as intel
ligent men who are dishonest.
In making nominations the greatest care
should be exercised. Honest men-men of
sound judgment and progressive views, who
understand the questions that concern
the state, and who are deeply impressed
with the Importance of legislative duties,
should be chosen.
The next legislature will have some
very important questions to settle, and
upon their settlement the future welfare
Of the state largely depends. What those
questions are every well-informed citizen
knows. They require careful and intelli-
gent consideration, and it is the privilege
and duty of the people to select such men
as are capable of giving them considera-
ton OF that kind.
1t is a great mistake to send man to
the legislature for no other reason than
that he happens to be popular, or desires
the honor or pay of the position. People
who are so Indifferent to their own inter
est as to choose man of that sort de-
serve TO suffer from bad laws.
In recent years really capable men
have not, as a rule, sought the honor of
an election to the legislature, for the
reason mainly that they find themselves
in the minority, and are unable TO &C
complisb what they feel ought to be done.
If all the counties would make it
point to elect their very best men
the position of legislator would be de-
sired and accepted by those who have the
qualifications necessary to render the
state valuable services.
In selecting candidates for the next
legislature there should be an effort made
to get the very best men available 1t is
not necessary to nominate those who
offer themselves, nor should those who
offer be rejected if they are the men who
are wanted. 1t is pretty easily determined
who would make good legislators, and the
candidates should be chosen from among
men of that kind.

Senators Brice and German, two others
of the conservative senators who were
recently scored by a northwestern demo-
cratic convention for recreancy to their
trust, may be said to have returned to the
tariff reform fold. They did not, as did
certain other senators, rise in their places
in the Senate and make statements. Sen
ator Brice set himself straight by writing
a letter to a democratic club in Ohio, in
which he declared he always was and al
ways would be tariff reformer and in
favor of any measure that has the party
support. Senator German got in out of
the wet through his letter to the sena-
tors urging them to be in their seats
when the debate on the bill by sections
began, and to remain within easy call as
long as it continued. The letter was is
sued in his capacity as chairman of the
democratic caucus, but it contained con-
siderable OF Germans personality, and
means business.

How One Woman Criminal Was De-
tected.


ut is good deal harder to convict woman
of crime than a man" said James Tracy,
the veteran detective to the St. Louis Globe
Democrat. Il don't know why it is so, unless
IT be that women are slicker in concealing the
evidence of their crime. l remember one
case had here in St. Louis about twenty
years ago, where a womrn l had arrested
nearly escaped punishment for her crime, but
finally landed her in an unexpected way
The woman was a servant in wealthy
family living IN the West End. One night
about 5000 worth Of diamonds belonging to
the lady OF the house were stolen and evil
dence went to show that this servant was
the thief. arrested her. but she stoutly pro-
claimed her innocence, and at the trial the
jury brought in a verdict of not guilty claim
ing the evidence was not sufficient to convict
l was convinced in my own mind however.
that the woman was the guilty party. and
had planted the diamonds somewhere and
sooner or later would try to dispose of them.
One day while standing on the corner of
Broadway and Walnut streets with my part
ner saw her coming down the street, dressed
in the hight of fashion. Thinking that prob
ably she had raised the diamonds. | told
my partner to arrest her and take her to the
keeping out of sight, followed behind to see
that she did not drop anything. AS she
walked along noticed that she kept swing
ing her parasol in rather a queer way and
suddenly saw a little package wrapped in a
cloth drop from the parasol into the gutter l
Immediately pounced upon it, and my suspic-
ions were confirmed at finding the package to
contain the stolen diamonds, which she had
placed inside her parasol. After seeing that

years"

An immense amount of American Sc
curities is held in Europe The European
moneyed men watch the current news
paper reports of affairs all over the
world with a sharp eve. They see in the
reports from America the news of various
armies in all sections of the country
moving upon the national capital. In Eu-
rope when organized bodies of men move
upon a capital it means something: il
means revolution, or war at any rate.
In this country we know that the Coxey
movement is a farce. But Europeans
may not regard it that way. They see it
through European eyes and probably re-
gard it as threat against the gov
eminent and menace to Ameri-
can values. At the same time they
see gold being shipped out of this
country, and that tends to con
firm their belief that something
momentous is about to happen If
these demonstrations are permitted
to be continued there can be but
one result. Foreign holders of
American obligations will get uneasy
about their money and withdraw it,
credit will be disturbed, banks will
find their patrons withdrawing their
deposits and hiding them in stockings,
tight money will ensue, and a panic may
be precipitated because of the crankiness
of lot of people who have nothing to
lose, and the cowardice of politicians who
are afraid of offending somebody if they
grasp the situation as common sense and
business sense would dictate.

voorhees, Kicks Against Criticism

Senator Voorhees,, the chi iiTiaan OF the
finance committee, who has been severely
criticised in his own state and elsewhere
for granting so many concessions in the
Wilson bill to democratic senator's, has
written letter in reply to his critics in
which he says he is unwilling to be
dubbed to death or read out of the Dem
ocratic party'' by those who are totally
Ignorant of the provisions of the bill. He
asserts that the concessions he made, as
chairman of the committee which has
charge of the bill, had to be made in order
to hold together in support Of the measure
the democratic senators. Without the con-
cessions the bill would have stood no
chance of passing. His position is that it
is better for the party to take what it can
get in the matter of tariff reduction than
to lose the entire bill.
The bill, however, he says, gives the
lowest average rate of duty since the
Walker tariff of 1S46. That being the
brought about great reform if the Will
son bill becomes a law.
There is one thing to which Mr.. Voor-
hees calls attention that has been over
looked by those who criticise him. 1t is
that the Wilson bill, as it passed the
House, created a deficiency of about
100000 600. A bill of that sort could
hardly be called revenue bill. As it is
amended it provides for revenue sufi-
Gent to meet the expenses of the govern
ment.
The surest way, however, for Mr.. Voor-
hees to silence criticism is to use all of
his influence to have the bill passed
quickly The whole country wants tho
tariff question settled at the earliest pos
sible day, and he can do great deal to-
ward getting an early vote on the bill

Comments on an Idle Rumor.

mlnlstratlon and scoring some OF the features
OF the Wilson bill is likely 10 have but slim
foundation. Apart from the obvious bad
taste OF his criticism OF the President, there
was much in Senator Hill address that went
tude Of congress and it's willingness to be
governed by the populist rather than the
democratic platform. Besides Mr.. hill is
not the only onender. Several other senators
nave been almost as outspoken rs he. The

The reunion of confederate veterans at
Birmingham, Ala, will probably grow to
be the biggest thing of the kind that has
ever taken place among southern vete-
rams. Birmingham is more convenient
than New Orleans, the present reunion has
been better advertised than usual,
and uncommonly attractive rates have
been made by the railroads; all of which
will probably make the attendance
eclipse the great reunions at New
Orleans. The whole south will be rep
resented largely, which has not been the
case heretofore. The beauty show that
will take place in connection with the
exercises-that is, the part taken by the
several young ladies who will represent
the several states of the late confederacy
will prove popular feature. The pa
thetic side of the reunion will be made
manifest when the few remaining general
officers of the confederate armies stand
up before their old soldiers, the one class
decimated and almost extinct and the
other grizzled, stopped and about ready
to follow jackson over the river to rest
under the shade of the trees.
