Gov. Northen of Georgia on Mon
day appointed Patrick Walsh, owner
and editor Of the Augusta Chronicle,
as United States Senator to succeed
Alfred H. Colquitt. Mr.. Walsh is
native of Ireland and about 90
years old. He has never held public
office, but for many years has been
the Georgia member OF the Demo-
cratic National Committee. He vig-
orously opposed Mr.. Cleveland's
nomination in 1892.
The steamer China, which arrived
at San Francisco Sunday, brings
Honolulu advices to March rs, as
follows: News of the proposition
made by the United States Senate
finance committee to give notice OF
the termination OF the reciprocity
treaty created great sensation, and
spread an atmosphere of gloom in
business circles. 1t was felt that
such a measure meant ruin to the
sugar industry as well as to the val
liable rice interest. Later news of
the Senate's favorable disposition to
continue the treaty gave general sat-
isfaction.
The election Of delegates to the
convention for formation Of new
constitution has been ordered for May
2. 1t is believed majority Of the
natives will abstain from taking the

Takachini, another Japanese war
ship, arrived at Honolulu March FL.
The Japanese laborers are turbulent,
expecting to receive the right OF suf-
frage. On the 22d Admiral Irwin,
accompanied by Minister Willis, paid
President Dole farewell visit. In
the afternoon Mr.. Dole was received
on the flagship with distinguished
honors. Two days later President
and Mrs. Dole called upon Mr.. and
Mrs. Willis at their residence.
The regular monthly Treasury

March, 1898; disbursements, S3l,
1880, as against $3l ,633, 482 for

Senator Shermon keeps in close f.
nancial touch with the administration,
for a man who belongs to the opposi-
tion; so his recent statement that "an
effort will be made in both houses to
give authority to the Secretary(o (of the
Treasury to issue directly a 8 per

semi official.
Rosebery might settle the gossip

1t all depends upon how you are
constituted whether the cold Easter

themselves with spring clothes; or

conclude that twill be cheaper to get

ANY man might be led astray by a

but to have been kept astray against
his will for ten years. He should in

openly made by a Senator that Wash

that indicate that spectators have a

That Autobiography.

Some of the good people of Brat
tleboro for the past ten days have
been "snickering," like unto the
Governors squirrels, as they quietly
passed from one to the other proof
slip, obtained by some means from
one of their printing offices, contain
ing sketch of the life and distin-
guished services of their famous war;
rior- Governor. The said slip con-
tains two newspaper columns of
BREWER matter, and is signed Augusta
Prescott, correspondent.
This is the racket that our cores
pondent, "Nemesis" is on to. 1t is
a great query with the Brattlebo-
reans as to the wherefore of the eff
fuslon-for what purpose was it put
in print? Presumably, and without
doubt, the work was paid for either
by the governor or his cuckoos and
the slip sent to various newspapers
that it might be used in connection
with accounts OF the governors, now
world renowned trip to California.
The writer had the pleasure, last
Monday, of examining the precious
document, and from the numerous
soft spots in it has. no hesitancy in
pronouncing it, in his opinion, an au-
photography, for surely no one but
Levi Knight Fuller could have writ
ten such stuff. However, perhaps
"Augusta Prescott, correspondent, !"
may step out into the light and settle
the matter.
The SITTER makes the following
quotation, which refers to the COVER
nor's fine residence, and makes lit
tie addition outside of quotation
marks:
"Outside in summer the squirrels
race and snicker in the tall pines
whose waving, thick branches keep
off the north winds of winter; while
southwark for miles the eye sweeps
over the plateau upon which camped
the volunteers of the green mountain
state as they gathered in those dark
years of war in defense of the
Union" And farther still, as the
eye takes in the broad expanse of
field and hill, can be seer the histor ic
grounds of Keyes' farm, where
"Over the garden wall,
Over the corn with its silk
And golden treasures, came battalion
Driving sheep and cows for milk
Aud where the youthful patriot,
with burning desire for glory, had
neared the dreadful carnage and
clad been wounded awful bad,
Had been smashed all in jelly,
Had fallen upon stone
And punched his little belly
And turning to the east the behold
er views, standing in silent grandeur,
the woods of North Hinsdale, that
once gave shelter and furnished
doughnuts to the famished warrior.

In order for congress to amend
the tariff bill, it is imperative for
the rules of the senate to be so
changed as to limit debate. 1t
would, therefore, seem that all dem
ocratic members of the senate who
favor reform, and oppose the
Stacking" of the democratic par
ty would favor the eliminating of
senatorial courtesy, at least to the
extent of the preventing the pas
sage of laws compatible with
the principles of democracy.
Among the names of those OPP
posing the change of rules,
appears that of Senator Harris. The
reasons assigned by the oppOsers are
that democrats will soon be in the
minority in the senate, and will
probably need the protection that
the present rules would afford them.
But the refusal of democrats to re-
sort TO cloture would not bind the
republicans to do likewise. AS
long as a political party has control
of both houses of congress, it will
be held responsible for legislation
and will also be responsible for
pledges unredeemed. Though
democratic supremacy in congress
will cease after the 4th of March
next, still much could be accom-
plished during the present session
with rules prohibiting unnecessary
and unlimited debates. In oppo-
sing such a measure, the directors
are not only imperiling the interest
of demo ,racy but, in addition, the
welfare of the country.

The Bolivar Bulletin, one of

Bulletin is also opposing a demo

The Commercial Appeal is
eminently correct when it
states that the BULLETIN has
been making war on Senator
Harris-that is, this paper is
opposed to his reelection, and
always will be under its pres

Harris financial views--We
have convictions of our own
