The special correspondents at
Washington are busy as usual telling
the country what they do not know
about the matters that are forming
themselves into shape at the seat of
national government. The facts are
that only the trariff bill is before the
country, and the evident determina-
ton of those who govern matters is
to see that the attention of the cOun-
try is not distracted from that one
subject. The record that the MEM
bers of the Senate will make in the
discussion of the items of the bill will
be food for future digestion at home.
That body is to be put upon proof in
this tariff bill and there will be
to some Of those votes.

blow in the hard freeze that it has had
in long time. 1t was beginning to
take on airs as the great cabbage fac
tory of the nation, but that freeze not
only took the heart out of that con-
ceit, but it took the heart out of nine
tenths of the cabbage crop down on
the border and along the bays. it
was regular game of freeze out, and
one from which it will not be easy to
recover. The crop that is left will
bring good money.

Perhaps the wish is father to the
thought that Sanguilly may succeed
Rivera as commander of the Cuban
insurgents. If he goes there he goes
with a halter around his neck, and at
the same time he seriously embarrass-
es this government in her efforts for
her citizens in Cuba. This later con-
sideratiOn may have more effect in
preventing Sanguilly's return than
any thought of personal peril. Those
men have put their lives behind them
in the cause of Cuban liberty.

The railroad authorities are a unit
in declaring that the pooling arrange
ments of the roads are a necessity. But
the railroads only represent their side
of the controversy and it is in order to
wait and see what the people by their
representatives will have to say by
way of rebutal. There is no DISPOSE
ton anywhere to handicap the rail-
roads Of the country unnecessarily,
unless in some of the little seven by
nine fellows who gain capital by their
cry of eXtortion against all corporate
bodies. Railroads must live. The
country cannot do without them.
