Important Increases Granted.
The District appropriation bill will proba-
bly, be completed by the Subcommittee of the
House Apprc priations Committee to-day and
reported 10 the full committee within a day
or two The members of the subcommittee
make no concealment OF their intentions to
hold the bill down to the very lowest posi-
ble notch. Indeed this is the order in the
Appropriation Committee III regard to all the
regular appropriation bills. There is a de-
termined effort to keep the appropriations of
this Congress inside the billion dollar line, ii
possible.
The effort OF the leaders OF the Democratic
Congress since the last Republican control of
the House has been n coLssant struggle to
avoid making the appropriations sufficient TO
permit their political opponents to re echo
the shout of 'Biil.on-dollar Congress" with
which they entered the campaign at The close
OF that Congress. The struggle for .onony
has gone on with varying success, the result.
however, being unyarylng IN the extremely
small appropriations for the District. Every
item that could possibly be omitted has been
ruthles -ly cut out of the estimates year after
year every proposed increase subjected to the
most rigid scrutiny. and everything that IS
not positively requ red to run the affairs of
the District. even In an unsatsfacto Y man
ner, has been sliced down or absolutely re-
jected
And it seems that this is TO be the case this
year again. The members of the committee
ma e no secret of their determination 10 en-
force just as rigid economy this year as ever.
This is the last session OF the Democratic Con-
gress. The Republicans are 10 take the helm
again next time. and the leaders OF the COM
mit,ee are determined to permit no appropria-
tions in excess OF the absolute needs OF the
moment. Every item in the estimates has
been subjected 10 the most rigorous, almost
heroic scrutiny, and many OF them have been
merciiessly cut down. 1t is understood that
The estimates of the Commissioners for
liberal sum for school buildings, sewers, and
extension OF the police and fire department
service to the suburban portions of the city
have been frowned upon, and that the inten-
ton Of the subcommittee is to REJECT nearly
or PERHAPS quite all OF them.
The chief ambition of the committee is to
keep every appropriation bill within the linn
its of last year IL possible, and as much lower
as possible. There may be some slight in
crease in feS items o. the bill, but ii is quite
likely that they Will be fully Offset by reduc-
tioas in other quarters, and the members OF
the subcommittee hope TO make the total
somewhat less than that OF last year. AS for
tEe important increases for schools. police
and sewers, it seems improbable that any
OF them will be granted.

President Jesse Lawson, of the Lyeeum.
He said he was glad to talk to this meeting
because it was made up largely Of young faen

his experience.
If young man should ask me- he said,
"shal | gain wealth, shall gain education,

power and honor, l should shake my head TO
all these. if he meant to make it his principal
aim in life. Sould say to him there is one
thing worth more than any Of these. Solo
mon answers the question rightly. a good
name is rather TO be chosen than great riches,
and loving favor rather than silver and gold.
That's the thing, good name. No matter
" hat the circumstances, all start together in
achieving good name. The poor and the
rich stand together ana there is only one way
for all.

NAGING A TARIFF WAR.
Germany's Resentment of the Duty Upon

taliation on Our Part.
In view of the Discrimination of Congress to
take up the sugar schedules OF the tariff act,
and the consequent improbability of any ac-
ton such as was recommended by the Presi-
dent looking TO the repeal OF the duty OF one
tenth of l cert on sugar produced under
the bounty system, the future action OF the
German government is being awaited with
some apprehension here The speech OF the
German chancellor ia ths Re.chstag in which
he made strong point of the discrimination

of the policy which that government has
adopted directed 70 the exclusion o. or severe
restriction uEon American products sought 10

AT present Mr.. Runyon, our Minister 10

ameiioration of the rigid order of exclusion
in the case OF American cattle. and Secretary
Gresham is in almost daily consultation with
the German Minister hele upcn the same sub

which has just suffered n severe Low from
the increase of the import tax to 200 per cent.,

efforts OF our government, the character OF

nounces its intention in the matter of the
sugar duty.
As long as these conditions obtain our gov
ernment is likely to wait patiently, but should
there be any fresh attacks 10y the Germans
upon American interests there is good reason
to believe that the administration will have
recourse to the retaliation act of 1890, and

HURST GUN TESTS.

Recent Unsatisfactory Results Explained
by the Inventor.
With reference to the more recent tests of
the Hurst gun at the Indian Head proving
ground, which have been repre- =ented as un-
satisfactory, Mr.. H. P. hurst, the inventor,
claims that the failure of the gun to meet ex-
pectations was due to he manner of loading.
He says he infers from reports Of the ex-
pertinent that the outside charge was built
up beyond the end OF the inner tube, causing
an explosion OF the outside charge before the
tail piece of the projectile left the inner tube
This fact would. he says account for the in
creased pressure reported.
When Mr.. Hurst made this representation
to Commodore Sampson, chief the Bureau
of Ordnance, he replied that the proiectiIes
would haveto he made stronger and a new
design made for them.

IHE GREAT STRIKE.

The strong force of the strike has
passed by, and although there are
troubles Of minor consequence, as
compared with those of two weeks
ago, no great bodies Of men are going
out and no riots of great Importance
are occurring. Here and there some
miserable wretch or combination of
wretches are destroying bridges and
wrecking trains, but for the greater
part trains are running regularly and
business is being done on the railways
as heretofore. Debs has been arrest
ed again and sent to jail awaiting his
trial. He has been the source of
much of the trouble and there ought
to be law enough in the land to put
him where his influence would not be
felt in an organization which has the
power to do great harm in the coun-

For the I'll me being, and nobody ca n
tell how long time, democratic leg
islation on the tariff is blocked. The
committee of conference is unable to
agree and has SO reported to each
house. The speaker of the house and
the preside Mt of the senate will select a
ne W committee, in the House the same
men and they will engage in another
contest. Meanwhile the president
has write a letter on the matter of
the tariff which has caused a great
sensation and some anger among
members Of the senate. The presi-
dent insists on free coal and free iron
and seems to favor the sugar tax. On
the whole the situation is uncertain,
with no prospect of an immediate So

The citizens of the county will do
well to attend the county convention
which is to be held in Barton Aug. 1.
Not in 80 years have political affairs
been more interesting or more impor-

public ought to take interest in all po-
Htical meetings. The county COM
mittee has assurances that Gov. Green
halge of Massachusetts will be pres
ent to address the people on that day.
Other speakers will be present. The
affairs of State politics are important
this year, and none but the best men
should be nominated to the legisla-
ture or the county Offices. The con-
vention of August 1st settles the mat
ter of county officers and names two
men who will serve in the state SEN
ate. While the purpose of the people
seems to be pretty well known before
hand their will ought to be manifest

and In the county convention. There
is large class of, usually, Indifferent

Ex President Harrison was quoted,
by the Indianapolis agent of the IN

Cleveland in his use of the army at
Chicago, without the request of Gov.
Atgeid. Gen. Harrison makes an en-
phatic disclaimer, and says: 1'I have
distinctly and always maintained that
it was not only the right, butthe duty
of the president to enforce the laws of
the United States everywhere with
out asking anybody's consent. I act

a soldier, marched under the orders
of the president into states whose

were resisting us, AS president, I

sometimes. Some who have trained
with the old party are deserting it for

The chief OF the bureau of statistics
at Washington estimates that the rev.
enue under the proposed income tax
will be very small from private in
collection, while from corporations it
may reach $39, 900, 900 per annum, but
is more likely to be near $4,000, 900.
His most interesting conclusion is that
the state of New York will have to
pay at least a sixth of the entire tax.

If at first you don't succeed, try,
try again. This is the motto which
the Vigilant spiked to her masthead
and after seven trials and as many
defeats, she succeeded on the eighth.
1t is reported that the Britannia met
with an accident to her rigging which
greatly handicapped her in the race
but according to the detailed story
she was fairly outsailed when the
mishap occurred = One out of eightis
not great record, but the victory is
the greater because it was won over
a competitor which had taken seven
successive races. Having struck her
gait, it is to be hoped that the Vigi-
liant may yet prove that her previous
defeats were caused by steady run
of bad luck, rather than by inferior
ity.
