what WIN Congress por

There are good reasons Cor thinking that
those who are expecting that congress viii
pass a good many important bills. besides
the appropriation bills. during the session
that begins tomorrow viii be disap-
pointed. Speaker Crisp is quoted as say
ing that he does not think much viii be
done besides passing the appropriation
bills, and that opinion is held by num-
Der OF other members who are well ic-
Guainted with the feeling that pervades
the House and Senate. A very large num-
Der OF the members were not reelected,
and many OF them feel very little interest
in legislation OF any kind. Some OF them
would not attend the session at all II they
could decently avoid doing so. With such
a feeling prevalent it viii be a rather diff
ficult matter 10 hold a quorum in the
House. or get any new measure Of general
interest considered.
Mr.. Bland threatens TO insist upon hav-
ing a free silver coinage bill considered.
but he viii be lucky II he succeeds in
getting the House 10 vote upon a measure
Of that kind. He was not reelected, and
that fact is likely to be Interpreted to
mean that the people are not demanding
the unlimited coinage Of short weight
silver dollars.
II is expected that the President in his
message viii insist that the work of thor
oughly reforming the currency shall be
begun at once. He may present plan for
accomplishing that work or he may add
wise that a monetary commission be ap-
pointed to report a plan 10 congress. II
is hardly probable. however. thar any sug-
gestion in respect to the matter that he
may make will be acted upon. The dem
ecrats will most likely take the position
that the short session does not afford time
for the proper consideration Of so i'm
portant matter.
There are several very important bills
pending in the Senate that have been
passed by the House. of these the bank
ruptcy bill may be passed with amend
ments that would be acceptable TO the
House. There is little probability, how
ever, that any one Of what are known as
the pop-gun bills will be passed. There is
said to be an understanding among the
democratic senators that all Of these bills
shall be passed, but there is no good rea-
son for thinking that the democratic SEN
ators who opposed these bills at the last
session have changed their minds in re-
spect to them.
Looking over the situation in congress,
therefore. it is difficult to find any signs
that the short session is going to be an in
one, or that it will be productive
of any legislation of Importance outside
of the regular appropriation bills.
The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1894-12-02

The state department at Washington is
advised that the German government is
about to place or has already placed be-
fore the other countries in the postal
union a proposition for an international
postage stamp. Under existing conditions,
if person in America writes to a CORE
spondent in Germany or other European
country, he must depend upon the gener-
osity of the correspondent to pay the
postage on reply. Merchants in the
several countries desire frequently to
communicate with the consuls of their
countries abroad. If it was so that they
could enclose postage for the return letter,
their queries would receive much better
attention. The advantages that might
follow the adoption of an international
postage stamp will suggest themselves to
persons who have friends or correspond
ents in foreign countries.

A Modest connositor.

In western paper. says the Northwest
magazine, under the head OF Situations
Wanted appeared the following adver-
tisement, which shows in a fair degree
the versautality and mOdesty OF one
American printer.
" anted-SituatiOn by a practical prin-
ter who Is competent to take charge OF
any department in a printing and pub
hshtng house. Would accept q professor

lection 70 teach ornamental painting and
penmanship, geometry. trfgonOmetry and
many other sciences. Has had some expe-
Renee as a lay preacher. Would have no

chiropodist he would be invaluable. OF he
would cheerfully accept a position as a
pass or tenor singer in a choir a..
remarkable as IL may seem. this adver-
tlsement appeared day after day. indica-
ting that the gifted printer was still with
out a situation. At last there appeared
this addition TO the notice.
II. S.-Wil accept an offer to saw and
Spit wood at less than the usual rates"
The advertisement was not inserted
again. so that the readers of the paper
were led TO infer that at last the versatile
printer requirements had met with ap-
probation.

His Vegetable Marrow.

The game Of the Briton in foreign
land Is ever the same. says II. c. Bunner
IN December Scribner's. 1t changes not
from generation to generation. Bid him
10 the feast and set before him all the
wealth OF cellar and garner. Spread be-
tore him the meat, heap up for him the
fruits OF the season. Weigh down the
board with every vegetable that the gar
deners art can bring 10 perfection in or
out OF ITS time-white potatoes, sweet po-
tatoes, lima beans, string beans, fresh
peas, sweet corn. lettuce, caulifiower,
Brussels sprouts, tomatoes, muskmelOns,
and water melOns-all you Will-nO word
viii you hear from him till he has looked
over the whole assortment and discov-
cred that you have not the vegetable mar
row, and that you did not raise il. Then
VIII he break forth and cry out for his
vegetable marrow. All these things are
as naught to him If he cannot have his
vegetable marrow, and he viii tell you
about the exceeding goodness and rarity
of the vegetable marrow. until you will
figure ii in your mind like unto the IA
nous mangosteen fruit of the Malay pc
ninsula, he who once eats thereof tastes
never again Of any other fruit of the
earth, finding them all as dust and ashes
by the side of the mangosteen.
That is TO say, this will happen unless
you have eaten of the vegetable marrow
and have the presence of mind to recall
to the Britons memory the fact that II
is nothing but a second choice of summer
squash, after which the meal will proceed
in silence.

Compulsory Arbitration"
From the New York Post Qnd.O.

Compulsory arbitration, of course. in
wolves nothing less than slavery for the
workingman. If the government may
force him to labor against his will, we
might as well go back to fugitive-slave
laws. Labor is quick to see this, and
at the recent labor congress in Chicago
not a word was said in defense of the
by the president of the Amalgamated
Association of Iron and Steel Workers
the president of the American Federation
OF Labor, the secretary of the United
Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners,
and other representative leaders. AS for
Carroll d. Wrghts absurd scheme of
onesided compulsory arbitration-in which
the government always forces the en-
ployer to yield, but never the employe-
nobody takes it seriously enough to dis
cuss it. Even the walking delegate"
realizes that the public would never
stand that sort of thing.

Ex-senator ingalls, has frequently been
quoted as saying that he would rather
succeed PETER, the man who beat him,
than Martin, the man whose successor in
the United States Senate is shortly to be
elected by the Kansas legislature. Never
ing ingalls,, and it appears to be more than
likely that he will be Senator Martins
successor. And Mr.. ingalls, will not object
to the arrangement, either. The desire
to be revenged upon PETER may be strong
in him, but he is hardly the man to let a
present probability pass for the sake of a
future possibility.

ga Deadlock on the Tariff"
From the Washington Post Qnd.)

The American people have taken mat
ters into their own hands. They have ar
ranged deadlock in tariff legislation and
insured for themselves period of rest
and peace. They have provided Mr..
Cleveland with a congress that will not
pass Wilson bill, and handicapped the
who will not sign any bill it may present.
They propose to recuperate and gain
tariff question afresh. And they are wise
in their generation.

Make Dollars of DouehDuts.
From the Philadelphia Record Dem,

The free silver zealots are no half way
fiatists. They insist that all issues of
paper money should be made by the fed
eral government. Having gone so far
toward cheap money as to insist that
legal tender dollars shall be made out of
intrinsic half dollars is but a step further
to say that dollars may be made out of
doughnuts or irredeemable paper prom

in city hall train on the Third avenue
road. There is a vacant seat beside him.
That is for you. Take it and he is yours"
The young girl sprang to her feet, but
the Soothsayer detained her.
Not now" she said. Il have looked
into the future. Go you, tomorrow morn
ing, at exactly half past s, to the Fifty
ninth street station on the Third avenue
road, enter the car that stops nearest you,
take the first vacant seat you ind, and
your future husband will be sitting beside
you on your right. If, for any reason, you
do not meet him tomorrow, try again the
next day and the next, and keep it up till
you find him beside YOU"
These words were spoken twelve years
ago. The girl followed the Soothsayer's
directions to the letter. Every morning
at $3.50 o'clock, during all these years, she
has boarded a city hall train at Third
avenue and Fifty-ninth street but she
has not yet met her future husband. She
has never once found vacant seat!

CONSERVATION IN THE Gus
TOM HOUSE.

A circular was received at the Gus
tom House from Washington yester-
day, directing attention to a newly
discovered form of cheapting the gov
eminent On the part of Democratic
officials. The officials are charged with
travelling on passes while engaged in
official business, while at the same time
making out bills against the govern
ment for phantom expenses incurred.
The circular, which is signed by the
Secretary of the Treasury, threw con.
sternation into the ranks of the agents,
employees and inspectors of the Special
Treasury Agents Office, where the
abuse complained of mostly prevailed.
Deputy collectors, who have been sim,
ilarly.-engaged, were alarmed to find
that their operations had been found
out. The accused officials were ordered
to report the names of the companies
issuing the passes to them to the Treas
ury Department, and also to state in
what manner the passes were obtained

During the busy reason it some times
happens that a farmer finds it almost
impossible not to overwork his horses
a little. Avoid this if you can, but if
you cannot, as soon as the opportunity
comes pull off their shoes and turn
them out for a fortnight's run upon
good grass.
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1894-07-03

The object of the information sought
is to ascertain to what extent the Treas
ury has been robbed by fraudulent
bills for travelling expenses. Senator
Hill is credited with discovering the
abuse while investigating the record
of a Cleveland nominee for Senatorial
confirmation. The crime, aside from
the commission of perjury in swearing
falsely to the expense accounts, is pun
ishable by fine and imprisonment.
Should the Treasury authorities carry
out the threat of prosecution implied
in the circular, the Jail may be filed
with Democratic oficials.-NeU York
