THERE are more tramps in Washing
ton now than ever before, and more
beggars, and, judging by the newspa-
pers, a like condition exists every
where else. The jails, warehouses and
poors' houses, too, are crowded; and the
winter has not yet set 10. Such con-
dition is hardly compatible with the
alleged prosperity that is so apparent
to President Mckinley and Governor
O'Ferrall. But republican officehold.
ers and boilers look at every thing
through gold spectacles.

COFFEE Is CHEAP Now.-As q result
of the war now being waged between
the Arbuckle Coffee Company and the
Woolson Spice Company, the sales of
coffee during the week now ending have
been far in excess of any period during
the past year. Coffee brokers in New
York yesterday declared that their
sales had been doubled.
The Woolson Spice Company, which
is controlled by the Havemeyers, is
selling Rio No. 7 at nine cents pound.
Not to be outdone the Arbuckles have
made reduction in their prices. COT.
fee is now cheaper than it has been
since before the war, say the old deal
ers, and if the fight continues there is
no telling what price it will 60 for. An
other reason for the low price is to be
found in the enormous quantity OF green
coffee in New York.

New JERSEY, year ago, gave Mr..
Mckinley about seventy thousand ma
iority. An intelligent republican resi-
dent of that State, now visiting friends
in this city, says he is sorry to say that
the condition of the people there has
not improved, aud that things there
now are no better than they we're then.
Alexandrians may draw some store
of comfort from the fact that their con-
dition is no worse than that of the peo-
pie of other cities; and besides, it is as
true now as ever that misery loves

THE President sat in the pew ne
1'honors," so the elders of the church
say, last Thursday and listened with
compacency to the preacher, who
lauded him for the prosperity of the
country and denounced the Catholics.
Few, however, except himself and the
preacher, are aware of the alleged pros
perity, and what the Catholics have
done to deserve special condemnation
is not apparent; and then, too, neither
.he nor the Catholics should forget
that Archbishop Ireland, of the Catho-
lie church, did all he could to promote
his election last year.

SATURDAY EVENING. NOV. 81, 1897

TIE NORTHERN flibusters continue
n denounce the alleged cruelty OF the
"loyal" people of Cuba to the insur-
gents confined in the military prisons
on that island, and advance certain ex'
pressions of Daniel Webster and opin'
ions of the U. S. Supreme Court IN
sunport of the humane idea that unfor-
tunate prisoners should be made as
comfortable as possible. If they
would read the true history OF
the military prison at Anderson
vile, during TIE war between the
States, they would learn that the condl-
ton of the inmates of Cuban prisons
in every conceivable respect infinitely
superior TO that of those who were at
Audersonville, and that though the ial
fer we're Union soldiers, and the Confed
crate government took pains to Inform
the federal authorities that, owing TO
the blockade, it could not be improves,
and that its own sick soldiers were dy-
ing from lack of proper medicine and
fool. General Grant and the Wash
ington government refused either to
exchange them or to fill the prescrlp
tioos of their own surgeons, and boldly
assigned as the reason for not e1chang'
ing them the fact that they would not re-
ioin their regiments, while Confederate
prisoners would make haste to rejoio
theirs. But 6libusters are more reck
lass in their words than in their deeds.

Richmond says: The biennial session
of the Virginia legislature opens next
Wednesday, December 1. The dele
gates are already arriving, and look
ing the ground over. A new subject
that is coming up for action and in the
mouths of the representatives on the
ground is the appointment of a State

This demand grows out of the wreck of
the banks at Lexington, Bedford City
and Lynchburg, and of the Ro-
anoke Trust Company.
The Office over the election to which
the most interest is taken is the super
intendent OF schools. Among the can
didates opposing John E. Massey, the
incumbent, are DR.. ]. w. Southall, of
Amelia; Colonel 4 T. Craighill, of

The Senatorial Elections

The news from North Carolina is
for Senate after March4th, that will
pass tariff bill free from silver rid
ers. Prtchard, though in accordance
with what is believed to be the dom
inant sentiment in that state favorine
free silver, is, nevertheless, in favor of
protective tariff. Indeed the pro-
tective sentiment is stronger in the
more thickly populated parts of the
state than is the free silver belief. If
Kentucky shall send Republican pro-
tectionist to the Senate a fair Re
publican tariff bill ought TO COM
body exclusive of the casting vote of
the vice president; for of the 16 newly
elected senators needed by the Repub-
licans, Iowa, Ohio, Pennsylvania. New
Hampshire, Maryland, North Dakota,
New York, Oregon, Vermont, Illinois,
California, Connecticut. Wisconsin and
Indiana, are certain to send Republi-
cans, whom it is believed, may be re-
lied upon to vote for such a tariff
measure without attempting to
embarrass it. Hansbrough of North
Dakota, while for free silver, will, it is
thought, unhesitatingly vote for pro-
lection. He certainly will if he con-
suits the wishes of his constituents.
There are good grounds for assuming
that the new senator who will sue
ceed Blackburn from Kentucky will be
ready to vote for a Republican tariff
measure.
1t is TO be hoped that support enough
from Populists and protection Dem
ocrats may be obtained to obviate the
necessity of Vice President Hobart
casting the deciding vote. but even
that method of ending the tariff for
deficit regime is to be welcomed. I'm
less Kentucky Republicans emulate
the despicable course of some of their
Delaware brethren last year an may
be well. 1t is particularly exasperat-
ing now to think that we should have
iG instead of Is votes in the Senate,

The Nicaragua Canal.

Whetheror not Congress will pass the
several facts which we believe will
hold true and among them are these
this country that it have control of
a canal built where it is proposed to
build this one: this will probably be
the only route for canal across the
tisthmus which this country may con
troll from the beginning; there is al
most as much reason to doubt the es-
Inmates, for that is all they are, of
the commission of engineers sent there
to look over the ground by an admin
istration hostile to the scheme, as to
doubt the estimates made by expert
engineers quite generally; the cost es-
timated by the government engineers
-$135, ,00O 0OO-is by no means insuper-
able, for if the canal may be built at
that figure there can be no doubt. in
view of the probable future of this
country, that the enterprise would be
valuable and eventually paying
one. 1t must be admitted. however,
that too much care cannot be taken to
avoid the scandalous conditions at
tending the governments aid to Pa
cific railroads, which by the way are
the most formidable opponents of the
present measure.
