in almost universal use in mercantile,
commercial and general business circles,
having been utilized as means for writ
ing letters, and preparing briefs, invoi.
ces, deeds, contracts, and similar papers.
Hence the usefulness of hand writing
has been limited almost entirely to
bookkeeping and to the recording Of
deeds and wills for which purpose it is
customary to employ heavy ledgsrs.
The same objection which has been off,
cred to hand writing for commercial
purposes, and which was the cause Of
the rapid substitution Of tvpewriting.
applied with equal force to the use of
hand writing in recording deeds, ETC.,
namely, the greater amount OF space
required for handwriting over that
necessary for printed or typewriter
characters when more than one clerk is
employed to inscribe the records, and
the fact that hand writing characters
are less legible than printed characters.

Time to Interfere.

IF the Cuban claim that Gen. Maceo
xas lured into an ambush and fired up
on. when he understood that he was
protected by flag Of truce. should be
proven co the entire satisfaction OF the
American people. it would almost GER
tainly result in our government being
forced by the stress Of popular iud'gna'
ton to take decisive step. If Spanish
ascendency is only to be attained by an
act that not only violates the usagas OF
civilized warfare, but is repellant and
an outrage when dealing with criminals,
then surely have the people Of this ma
ton every reason to require at the hands
of the administra ton more than strain
ed attitude. or diplomatic protest lodg'
ed against friendly government. but
a pointed, definite announcement of a
policy Of disapproval, not only of Wey'
ler's murder at Maceo, but Of Spanish
dominion IN Cuba.
The murder of Maceo, if proven, will
probably result in bringing to an abrupt
ending the absurd attitude of the pres
ent toward the looming administration

will be criticised by partisans in either

unreservedly casts the great weight OF
the government against the cruelty Of
Spanish rule in Cuba.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.

WASHINGTON, DEC. 18th, 1896.
While most republicans are pleased
to know that the work upon the tariff
bill which it is hoped to pass at the
extra session of Congress has actually
been commenced by the majority Of the
present Ways and Means Committee,
they are not all sanguine that this bill
can be passed by the next Congress as
easily as some imagine or as quickly.
1t took the fftieth Congress, which was
democratic in both branches, from Dec.
ember 5th, 1887, to January 22nd, 1889
to pass the Mills taliff bill and then it
was amended to such an extent by the
Senate that it died in conference. In
the ifty.first Congress, which was re-
publican, work was begun on the Nc
Kinley bill as soon as the House Com
mittees were named, and BY an appli-
cation of the then new Reed rules the
bill was passed on May End by the
House, but did not 60 through the
Senate until September 18th, and, owing
conferences on Senate amendments
and other delays, did not reach PIesi-
dent Harrison until October LIST, the
date upon which it was signed. The
present tariff law did not get through
Congress in even as short period, and
