ent benefit" He does not, however, in
any way endeavor to avoid the manifest
i duty of Congress, and no less the duty of
the Democratic administration, that of
providing in some manner for the deficit
in the revenue. Mr.. Milliken has express
ed himself on this point as follows: "Con-
gress should pass aud the President
should sign bill SO amending the pres
ent tariff law as to afford ample revenue
to meet the Government expenditure,
! protect American industries, and change
the balance of trade in our favor" Mr..
Dingley says: "My opinion is that we
should pass a bill to provide the neces-
sary revenue to make up the deficit. and
the bill should be drawn on Republican
lines, regardless Of any recommendations
of the President as to how it should be
framed. If the President does not want
the revenue let him take the responsible
ity.' Mr.. Boutelle thinks that, "We
! should look for revenue where we lost it
when Democratic legislation relieved the
foreign competitors of our own producers
from the taxes they should be compelled
to pay for the privilege of entering our
market
The Presidents message was read ia
both Houses, Tuesday and reached us in
the daily papers yesterday. 1t is too long
for publication in full, and the time is
too short for careful review The mes
sage is wholly devoted to foreign affairs
and the finances. 1t contains plain talk
to England about Venezuela, and says the
powers must act to stop the massacre in
Turkey. The Alaska boundary question
is discussed and the appointment of
joint commission to determine the line is
recommended. The Cuban matter is con
sidered and the President urges a strict
enforcement of the neutrality laws, despite
the sympathy OF our people for the
Cubans who are struggling for freedom
from Spain's CALLING yoke. The President
pays no attention to the question Of
deficient revenue, and so must re-
gard it as a matter Of no consequence.
The financial situation is discussed at
length, and the President prescrbes the
Cleveland Carlisle patent medicine as the
only remedy. This, in substance, calls
for the withdrawal Of the greenbacks, the
issuing of long term gold bonds, small as
well as large, and an increase of the bank
currency. Legislation in this direction is
improbable, if not impossible In discuss
ing the silver question the President
takes strong ground until he spoils it
by suggesting the coinage of the seign-
forage, or as an eminent Democrat des-
ignated it-''the coinage of a vacuum"
just as he spoils his reference to the ex-
tension of the circulation of the National
Banks by coupling with it an advocacy of
State Banks and a return to the days of
wildcat currency The message is so
long that few will have the patience to
read it through.

Descendant of an Early Settler.

To THE EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL: Mrs
Adelaide Hobbs Carlton, whose death was
recorded in the last journal, was the daugh-
ter of Sarah Brown Hobbs, the seventh child
Of John Brown, Jr., and therefore great
granddaughter of John Brown, one of the
early proprietors of Belfast. Her mother
Mrs. Hobbs, was woman of unusual char
acter and attachments, as indeed were all
the seven daughters of John Brown, Junior,
inheriting as they did in large measure the
sturdy character and intellect of their aunts,
the eight daughters of John Brown Senior
hat multitude of descendants had old
John Brown He had ninety-nne grand
children, and the five or six generations
since his time must make an almost endless
number. They are scattered from Maine to
California, but many of whom l have kept
trace have achieved distinction in profess
sional and business life; and the Old man,
who was possessed of great vigor, energy,
and honesty" who was honest and upright
in his life, and who refused to take the oath
of allegiance to Great Britain, preferring
rather to abandon his scanty possessions,
left heritage to his posterity more endur-
ing than the gold of the Vanderbilts or AS
tors. Let every descendant of the upright
sturdy Scotch-Irishman, hold his memory
blessed. HELEN N. PACKARD.

The Fifty-fourth Congress.

Congress met on Monday last with Hon.
7. B. Reed again in the Speakers chair,
and an overwhelming Republican majority
in the House. Present indications are that
the Senate will be reorganized on Repub-
lcan basis, with Senator Frye as President
pro tempore This will require two votes
from the Populist side and it is said t ey
will be forthcoming. When the new Sena-
tors take their seats there will be straight
Republican majority. Mr.. Reed has been
the foremost figure in the scenes attending
the assembling of the new Congress, and
has received honors rarely paid. The
Boston Journals correspondent, in a
clever sketch of the proceedings in the
House. says:
Mr.. Crisp was appointed by the Clerk
to escort Speaker Reed to the chair He
did this as gracefully as he could in cir
cumstances which must have been hui
initiating to him. The last time Mr.. Crisp
and MI. Reed were in such close conjunc-
ton, Speaker Crisp in fiery anger had or
dered Mr.. Reed to lis seat, as if lie were
a dog, and the Georgian had then been
elected Speaker over Mills Of Texas, in
part because he could control lis temper.
Mr.. Crisp is accounted in his county as a
man Of stalwart physique and intellect.
He looked like pigmy to-day as he walk
ed up the centre aisle with the physical
and intellectual giant, Thomas B. Reed
of Maine; and it scarcely could have been
with pleasure that in a moment more Mr..
Crisp heard Speaker Reed declare, ct is
very agreeable to me to stand once more
in the place which 1 left four years ago. f"
While the Republicans have large
majority in the House, they are in mi
noiity in the Senate, and the President is
politically opposed and likely to veto
any tariff measures which may not accord
with his free trade theories. This makes
it difficult for Republicans to formulate
policy. As Mr.. Reed said at the Repub-
lican caucus last Saturday evening: ''We
have, unfortunately, divided govern
ment.' Continuing he said, ''rather thar
run risks, we can afford to wait until ma
tured plans give us assurance Of perman-
