An Administration Measure,

The announcement through The press
that the banking bill is TO have the right
Of way in the House of Representatives
for three days, including to-day, has
peculiar interest added to II by the further
statement that 1t is IAN Administration
measure" this latter announcement being
supplemented by the statement that a
majority Of the Republicans in the House
Of Representatives will support this "Ad
mnlstration measure" and the majority
Of the Democrats vote against IL. In
other words. the Democratic Administra-
ton cannot rely upon the Democrats
in Congress.
And If Congress shall pass this Admin
istratiOn BILL" the Republicans will claim
the credit. And how will its passage az
feet the silver question? II some DEM
ocrats may unite with the Republicans TO
get an Administration measure enacted
into a law may not other Democrats
unite with Republicans to get a silver
bill enacted into a law? Dangers stand
thick through all the ground"

Original Words OF Dixie Land"

In view Of the fact tina the vene-
rable minstrel. Dan Emmett, Is 50 soon
to make his visit TO Washington, ana
that comparatively few people are tamil
lar with the words Of the song which
gave Emmett his reputation, they are
given below, as follows:
| wish I was in de land oh cotton, old
times dar are not forgotten,
Look away. look away. look away
Dixie land.
In Dixie land whar l was born in, early
on one frosty mornln',
Look away. look away. look away
Dixie land.
Chorus.
Den l wish was in Dixie, hooray!
hooray
In Dixie land I'll took my stand, to lib
an die in Dixie.
Away. away, away down south IN
Away. away, away down South in
Dixie.
Old missus marry "Wil lie weabeT'; VIII
liam was a gay deceaber;
Look away. look away, look away
Dixie land.
But when he put his arm around her, ne
smiled az fierce as A forty FOUNDER.
Look away, look away, look away
Dixie land.
His face was sharp as a butchers clea-
Der. but dat did not seem to greab 'er;
Look away, look away, look away
Dixie land.
Old missus acted de foolish part, and
died for a man dat broke her heart;
Look away, look away, look away
Dixie land.
Now here's health to de next old missus,
an all de gals dat want 10 kiss us;
Look away. look away, look away
Dixie land
But if you want TO drive way sorrow,
come an hear dis song tomorrow;
Look away, look away look away
Dixie land.
Oars buckwheat cakes an lngen batter,
makes you fat or a little fatter;
Look away, look away, look away
Dixie land.
Den hoe IT down an scratch your grabble,
to Dixie's land I'm bound TO trabble;
Look away. look away, look away
Dixie land.
II is proposed TO have A musical enter
tainment in the largest hall In Washing
ton in connection with the reception TO
Emmett, and he viii be introduced 10
the people by prominent ex-Confederate
general probably General John Il. Cor
don. OF Georgia. MIR. Emmett is still in
such good health that he can DO walk
around quite cleverly. and that will be
on the programme. or course Dixie will
be sung by the people. and the band will
ring out the melody Just as the vene-
rable minstrel makes his appearance on
the stage. There will be southern songs
galore. and no effort will be spared on
the part Of the managers Of the demon
stration to make Dan Emmett feel that
the author OF Dixie Land" is held in
high esteem by people from all portions
OF the country. who will rejoice e
honor him in his old age, and 10 call tc
mind the past when he was shining
light on the minstrel stage.

r,cc,inu 4. 6. Senators by the People


,.,aer tho circumstances surrounding
corgrass now. there is little reason TO
hone for the passage OF Mr.. fuckers OIL
providing for the election of United states
senators by the people The piil mas
dragged along from the day 1t was re-.
ported to the House of Representatives,
and although 1t passed that BODY oy
good majority. 1t was evident that there
were many members who were looking
70 the Senate to kill IT, We shall not
trace the history Of the bill in the lower
house Suffice IL TO say that 1t passed
that body in due time. and now awaits
action on the part OF the Senate.
How stands the bill in the Senate?
We answer that from the outgivings OF
the senator's who have had something 10
say on the subject, we are inclined to
think that the bill will fail Of passage in
the Senate during the session OF Con-
cress now 50 rapidly approaching lis
end. and therefore will stand as II
IL had never been passed by the House
Of Representatives. 1t may possibly die
from mere neglect, seeing that II VIII
not appear in the next Congress under
the favoring circumstances which marked
its advent into the House Of Representa-
tivcs Of the last Congress. Mr.. Tucker
for example. who reported the bill, ana
who deserves much credit for the per-
sistency with which he pressed its consid-
Grafton. Will not in the next Congress
b. the chairman Of the Committee on the
Election q President and Nice-Pres.dent
and REPRESENTATIVES in Congress. on the
contrary. it will be for the Republican
Speaker Of the next House to decide
whether he shall even be a member Of ta-
committee having charge OF the subject.
We think it may be safely said that the
bill will find less favor in a Republican
House Of Representatives than in
Democratic House Of Representatives.
Therefore the large majority which the
Republicans will have in the next House
Is another reason for fearing that Mr.
fuckers bill will not soon be enacted
into a law. II we argue. as Mr.. Tucker
dld. that power and responsibility should
60 together. the Republicans will ret0rt
that in November. 1894, the people took
the responsibility from the Democrats
and clothed the Republicans with it,
They will duh the bill Democratic mea,
sure and thus strive to excite the part!-
san feelings Of the Republicans.
We must not forget that there are
many Democrats who are opposed TO
cntrusting the people with the power
to elect United states senators. The
strong conservatism OF the Senate itself
has tendency to induce some Of the
Democrats 10 stand by the Constitution
