SUGAR lGllS IN TROUBLE.

Afler the hard light to secure for
sugar a place in the Tariff bill, the vic
tory now seems by the following spec
iAl TO be q barren one. The eonstrue-
Iion of Senators Vest and VOORHEES,
has been eorreborsted by tee House
members Of the Ways aud Means Com
miitee:
Especial to Times-Democrst
Washington, March 1S.-The Louis.
lana sugar producers and their friends
in Congress were considerably stirred
up this morning by the appearance Of
interviews with Senators Voorhees, and
Vest, in which both Senators declared
that the pending tariff bill would not
abrogate existing commercial agree
ments entered into by the last admin
istrstion by authority of the McKin-
lev act. If this be true, the committee
offers the domestic producers protec-
tion on sugar with one hand and takes
it away with the other hand. Mr.. Vest
said it was the intention of the bill to
repeal the reciprocity clause Of the Nc
Kinley bill for the purpose of depriv-
ing the President Of the power to ne
gotiate any further treaties under it,
but It was not intended or desired to
disturb those that had already been
negotiated and were now in force. He
alluded particularly to the commercial
agreements with Spain and with Ger
many, and said that they would be in
no way affected by the bill. Mr.. voor-
bees cancurred in the views of Mr..
Vest as to the understanding and pur-
pose of the committee and interpreta.
tion of the bill.

Centreville, March ll.-It is long
lane which has no turning, truly, and
II seems that q turn has at last been
reached in Centreville's lane. The
Robinson Mercantile Company, Linn
tied, has bought property here, and
are now opening up large stock Of
general merchandise. The company
is under the direct and personal con-
troll and management of Mr.. l.. B.
Robinson, president of the Bank of
Gloster, and is limited in stock to not
less than $4,000 nor more than Si0,-
900. This Is the first venture of its
kind in this vicinity, and has given
new life and energy to the balance Of
the town and its business men, and
large stocks of goods are being bought,
and trade Is coming here from quite
distance in every direction.
Tho Southwestern Land Company
has become interested in this place
also, aud have commenced to locate
colonies of immigrants on the lands
adjoining the town. Quito a colony
of energetic and thrifty-looking
Swedes have purchased lands and
located here, and it is said that very
large number of others will arrive in
few days. They seem delighted
with the country and satisfied with
the price of lands. Their intention is
to raise truck and fruit for shipment.
They are buying up land in ten and
fifteen acre lots, and paying part cash
and the balance in installments.
Houses, both for business and resi-
dences, are in demand, and real estst to
in town has increased in price from
rs to 80 per cent within the last four
weeks. There is scarcely q day some
person from distance does not come
here prospecting and trying to rent or
buy property. 1t would thus seem
that Centreville has awakened to new
life, and is ON a boom, and boom
with solid basis at that. Lands in
the country adjacent TO this place have
seen their lowest prices.

A SHATTERED IDOL.

However little The plaintiff in the
case of Pollard VS.. Breekinridge may
be entitled to sympathy, there is no
room fo- doubt as to common opinion
upcn the defendant. A shabbler, fab
bier, sneaker figure was never before
presented TO the gaze Of the American
public, than is now furnished by the
Hon. William Cabel Preston Breckin-
ridge.
A Louisville dispatch says:
"The people of the grand old Ash
land district should forever hang their
heads in shame If they return Breck-
inridge 10 Congress. 1t is really pitia-
BILE to hear men talk about the down.
fall of this gifted statesman"
The "grand old Ashland district is
entitled to no more sympathy than
the defendant. His constituents have
known all along that he was gifted
frsud-without character, decency or
integrity; that his sole gift of genius
was gas. While calling on the nation
to worship him as worthy successor
of Henry Clay, they knew that they
were sitting up clay idol. 1t is to be
hoped that their humiliation will strike
home and work wbolesomely.

| desire to call the attention of the
Levee Board through your valuable
paper to an effort that is being made
by the Sewall Harbor and Chaunel
Improvement Company, Limited, pre-

ing banks at the foot of Poland street,

by the company few days since, and
It's effect on the curreut was truly
surprising. The dixie will be complet-

as now seems assured, channel improve
ment on the rivers Of the country, and
especially on the heretofore uncontroll-
able Mississippi, will undergo q radical
revolution, and fluid O complete and
satisfactory solution.
The Sewell Brothers have, after
years of vain effort, at last obtained
permission to erect this dixie at no ex-
pense TO the city or State unless IL
proves a success, they at last have been
allowed 10 spend their own money in
the attempt to prove q perfect method
of controlling the river, aud verify to
all appearances their confidence in
their own plans was well grounded.
II this plan succeeds, aud there IL is
on exhibition for all to see, there will
henceforth be no more levee renewals
for caving banks, aud millicus will be
saved to the taxpayers aud the govern
ment in The rectlfcatlon of the chan

pensive levees in the State from caying

the attention of the Leveo Boards of
the two States most interested 10 this
most important and most promising of

Of this kind, especially as the work can
be most economically and expeditions

APOSTLE or SIMETALLIsM.

New Haven, Conn., March Stem
eral Francis A. Walker spoke here to-
nieht on eBimelallism Three ques-
tions. he said, were involved in the
problem Of international blmetailism !;
First-Is it economically desirable Z
Seconds it economically praciiea-
HE that is. will il work under the
normal operation Of the prlneipie OF
self INTEREST,"
Thirds it politically and dIplo-
matiealiy possible, that is, eau the CO.
operation of number OF the impor-
tsnt commercial nations be obtained
for setting up and maintaining the
system required!
Under the first head the speaker
said the contemplated benefits Of BIZ
metallism were three. First, to estab-
llsh an approximate par of exchange
between gold using aud silver using
countries with inexpressible benefits
to international commerce, and,
through commerce to production, the
world over. Such q par of exchange
existed for seventy years priorto 1878,
when It was destroyed by Tie action
of Germany IA going over to gold
mouome,al.sm
The second beuedt which the econo-
mist looked 20 G,metallism to secure
was higher degree Of stability in the
money mass composed Of the two
Iaetals than is attsiuable in money of
either alone. This principle Is fully
admitted by all economists of inter-
national standing. That such a result
would be Of world wide benefit no
one but bigot can now deny.
The third argument for blmetallism
is the argument from the situation ex-
isting. 1t has reference to wages
prices, and debts on the one hand, and
the quantity Of each of the precious
metals in use on the other The bi.
metallist asserts that there is not gold
enough TO do the business of the world
on a gold basis alone. He points to
the terrific strain under which the
commercial nations have been kept In
the contest for gold since 1873, to the
small visible stocks of gold over, Ia
the inadequacy of the annual product
to supply waste and provide for the
increasing wants of the natious.
Turning 10 the question whether
bimetallism is economically practices
BILE, Gen. Walker dwelt at length upon
the experience of France from 1903 to
1873, as showing that that country
single.handed, maintained a substan
tisl parity between gold aud silver a
the ratio of 10 Is l-2.
Az TO the question whether bimetal.
lsm is politically and diplomatically
possible, Gen. Walker stated that the
last few years have produced a great
change of opinion in Europe on thi'
question. England could bring abou
bimetalism at an hours notice II sh,
: desired; and England is fast becoming
blmetallist in sentiment.

A TRUE BILL.


In communication IN the Kosciusko
Star urging the denomination Of the
Hon. John S. Williams we find the
following:
"The extremity of Democracy be-
came Mr.. Williams opportunity, and
his nomination at Kosciusko was q
party inspiration. We challenge the
annals of any State 10 show superior,
and In some respects an equal, to the
campaign with which Mr.. Williams
followed up his nomination, either in
masterful poteucies or brilliant re-
sults.'
Dlsclaiming any desire TO intrudo
on the canvass iu the 9Th District, II
Is proper that the foregoing should
have our endorsement. As chairman
OF the campaign committee of 1892,
the editor of the TIMES is especially
qualified 10 endorse the statement,
that "the extremity OF Democracy was
John s. Williams's opportunity" Such
was the situation In the 4th and 9th
Congressional Districts, such the pow
or aud influence Of their Populite NOM
inees for Congress, that under any less
aggressive aud able debaters aud lead
ers than Ii. ID. Money and John S,
Williams, Democracy would have suf-
fered defeat.

vation ofa years prohibition in Me-
ridian, are thus stated by the Hon. II.
NJ. Street; one of the most practical,
candid and ommon-sensible men in
the State:
Editor Meridian News:
Desiring to see the evils of the liquor
traffic reduced TO a minimum, am
willing to sec the experiment tried of
selling in sealed packages by daylight
only. lfmy own sons were here ex-
posed to the came temptations as other
young men, would prefer to have
the sale carried on in daylight by re-
sponsible parties under bond, rather
than cIandestinely, as it is now. If
the plan is tried and proves a greater
evil than at present exists, the number
of absolute prohibitonists will be in
creased. We do not like to have our
names published as petitioners for the
sale of whisky, but If the names Of
purchasers were published, some Of
onr names would appear, for 1t is pur-
chased and used otherwise than as a
beverage. The right to purchase and
use carries with it the right of some
body to sell 1t somewhere in some
way. do not believe one years trial
can increase the evil, particularly when
those engaged In the sale realize that
it ia trial. | make this statement in
explanation of my own course, and not
to influence others. II. M. STREET.

The pairs were as follows: Camden

Dixon against; Jones of Nevada for,
with Hoar against; Vance for, with
Sherman against.
Senators Squire aud Camden did not
vote. On yesterday Squire voted in
favor of the bill and Cameron was
paired in its favor.
If the bill does not become u law, it
win be because of the serious objec-
tions to the second section. AS this
section is not operative until the
"seignorage" Is coined-some two
years henee-Mr. Bland was urged 10
drop it from the bill, or at least clarity
its phraseology. His explanation Of
the meaning, In the debate, was salts
factory enough, but this did not clear
up the verbal obscuritles. As Senator
George said, it is Sarlilleially drawn,

ambiguity I'm it, This is serious

CLEVELAND AND CArCHISGS.



Jackson Miss, March 10 1884
Hon. hurry F. Smith, of Yieksourg, is
in the city IN attendance upon the
supreme court. 0a being asked what
was the political out look in the
Third district, aud especially with re-
terence to the return of Congressman
CStchings, Mr.. Smith said
al have recently visited a number OF
counties in Mr.. Catchings' district, and
find that there is no substantial Opposi-
ton to him The thinking people Of
his district appreciate his services so
highly. and realizing that his expert
ence in congress is of such character
as to render him each term more fitted
to look after their interests, are de-
termined to return him. Especially is
this true since be has become chair
man of the rivers and harbors COM
mittee. The people OF Mr.. Catehlngs
district are more interested In river
matters than in any other one question,
as this Is at their doors every year, aud
sometimes in their doors, and not only
their prosperity. but their absolute ex-
lstence, depends upon the ultimate solt-
tion OF this question. Mr.. Catchlngs
has been upon the river and harbor
committee ever since he entered cou-
gross, aud now that he has become
chairman he will be IN u better posi-
lion to serve them than ever before.
ain this connection VIII state that
the people Of the Third district are as
strong in their support of MIR. Cleve-
land as they have ever been. The fact
that the river district Of Mississippi
so strongly supports Mr. Cleveland is
rather noteworthy, but il shows the
character Of the people who compose
that district. They admire Mr.. CIeye.
land for his rugged integrity aud
fixedness of purpose, aud because he is
sound on all great national questions
Realizing this, they are willing to trust
him, even though they may think be
Is not as liberal toward their specia
interest, the Mississippi river, as they
would like him to be. 1t is also mat
ter Of qualification TO the people oftht
Third district that Mr.. Csthings' view
on national questions so nearly accord
with those of Mr.. Cleveland, and now
that be is chairman of the rivers and
hsrbors committee, they feel that the
claims of the river can be presented
through Mr.. Catehings to the presi
dent with better effect, probably, thar
by any other congressman
