WASHINGTON LETTER.

Washington, Feb. Is 1895.
Mr. Clevelandis gettngmore open abus,
from Senators on account of that extraor
dinary bond contract, than he did from
members of the House, and it is also more
outspoken. Senator WoIcott characterized
it as the most disastrous assault upon the
oountry's financial system ever made. add
ing sand the worst featule of the whole
wretched business is that the attack is
made by the man who, because of his DO
sition, should have stood the foremost in
our defense. Our nest has been befouled
by the man who should have stood for our
credit If there were ever any men who
were not entitled to consideration it is the
Rothschilds and the President, because
they have sought to blac<en our credit.
Senator Lodge said the act was the black
est ever perpetrated by an administration in
dealing with American securities, and Sen
ator Teller went even further than these in
his criticism Of Mr. Cleveland. Up to this
time, no Senator has even attempted to de-
fend that bond contract, although Senator
Hill said it was Congress and not Mr.
Cleveland that was to blame
tits thought that the crushing defeat of
the administration gold bond bill in the
House last week ends all financial talk in
that branch of Congress for the present
session. but the Senate has taken up the
subject and will do some speechmaking

An injunction restraining John H Jacob.
& Company, Of Wilmington, from resumine
work on the inland waterway connecting
the Delaware and chiucoteage bays has been
issued
The injunction was issued on Friday last
on the application Of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company and was made returnable be-
fore Chancellor Walcott The railroad com
pany contends that it has the right Of way
and that some provision should be made BY
Congress for the building of bridge for the
crossing Of the D. NJ & " branch Of the
railroad over the canal about one mile from
Rehoboth before the work goes on. The
government on the other hand argue that
its rights are paramount IN the matter, A few
days ago the contractors iu question received
notice from General W T. Smith, United
States agent ia Wilmington, to commence
that portion Of the structure of the canal, for
which an appropriation Of sz7. 500 was made
iuring the last session Of Congress.

speaks, and that he never tries to suaddle
any question, great or small; hence the sig
nihcance Of his remarks upon the bin for
the repeal of the differential duty on sugar
and the amendments concerning meat in

the Senate Finance Committee, which

increasing the duty on luxuries, that must

upon. It is improbable that either will be
Few people realize the enormous amount
of money that has been everlastingly lost
BY strikes in the United States-they have
been almost as expensive as a Democratic
administration. The Senate Committee
on Education and Labor, which has fav-
orably reported Senator Perkins bill for
the creation of a commission Of twenty one
persons to arbitrate all disputes between
employees and large employers of labor,
made an investigation covering a period Of
six years ending with the recent Brooklyn
strike, the result of which is embodied in its
report to the Senate on this bill. Accord
ing to the figures of the committee, and its
members say they are very conservatvely
made up, the known losses through strikes
during the period mentioned have aggrega-
ted s0S,5s6,85o.
The Democrats are but testifying to their
fear of ex-Speaker Reed as a Presidential
candidate by the silly talk they are indulg
ing in about his vote on the gold bond
bill having removed him from the field of
possible Republican candidates. Tom Reed
is too big man to be a trimmer on any
subject, even to obtain a Presidential nom
ination. His great popularity rests as
much upon his always having voted his

Hawaiian cable amendment to the dipo-
matte and consular appropriation bill, but
the sentiment of the Senate IS too strong to !
be misunderstood on this subject That
will stand, or the bill will fail.
The Nicaragua canal bill will probably |
get a day in the House, but as the House
will vote on substitute for the bill which
has passed the Senate, the prospect of the
bill can hardly be considered good, even if
t passes the House.

THE Republican victory in Phila-
delphia on Tuesday last is but an
other indication that the prestige
won by that party at the polls last
November has in no wise been di-
minished, but on the contrary aug
mented, increased, and made more
powerful as time develops the inapt-
ness and incapacity of the Demo
cratic party, its fallacious doctrines
and policies.
Robert E. Pattison, twice Gov
ernor of his State, was defeated BY
Charles F. Warwick 1.-THE Republican
candidate, by 10000 majority, not
withstanding the diseordant ele-
ments in the Republican ranks. Pat
tison early political life was marked
by his advocacy o. measures fraught
with good to the masses; his early
official life was noted for his faithful
and economic administration of the
duties imposed upon him, but his
last years Of office were stigmatized
by pomposity and acts Of disgrace
ful partisanship. He ard his lieu
tenant, VIM. F. Harrity, met a hu-
initiating Waterloo,and undoubtedly
Mr. singerly anloaded his sympa-
thies at the Pattison residence at a

MEMBERS of the Legislature should
keep an eye on all bills that will re-
quire Levy Courts to pay increased
amounts annually to various towns,
and set down on them heavy. More
injustice is done in this kind Of leg
islation than in any other branch
outside of political lines. Towns Of
one thousand inhabitants in Sussex
county are receiving from three to
six hundred dollars annually from
the county, while South Milford with
nearly double their population gets
but two hundred and ffty dollars.
The sandy one street town Of Mills
boro gets three hundred for that
street annuaIly-which must pay
nearly the entire cost Of running the
town. Lewes receives six hundred
dollars, Laurel the same, and now
Georgetown has bill introduced by
Representative Moore asking that
the Levy Court be compelled to pay
to Georgetown annually one thous-
and dollars for her streets. That
bill is good one to knife,or at least
lmend, by making the amount five /
hundred. Keep an eye On it. ID

tempts to rob the public treasury

schemes of few Dover lobbyists

when a delegation of farmers before

opposed the granting of an appro-
priation of $4,000 to the State Ag-
ricultural Society. They contended
that the appropriation will not ben

ANOTHER galvanic current has
been turned on the Senatorial corpse
of the Higgins boom, and the word
has been cast along the line to hold
on, for Governor Marvll is with us.
and if no Senator is named at this
session, he will appoint Senator Hig-
gins to fill the vacancy. This is in
line with past history and it is prob.
able that at least six Of his followers
will follow their directions to the bit
ter end. This is silly. Governor
Marvil can appoint Senator Higgins,
but will the o. S. Senate seat him +?
And, if seated, his term would be
only until the Legislature Of 1897
elected a man to fill the vacancy
but by this course they would have
defeated all others and placed two
years salary in Senator Higgins
pocket, and retained fat place for
F. e Bach. That's the milk in the
