Gen. 1Alger, McKinley's choice for Sec
ertary of War, believes prosperity will
come gradually after the passage of II
tariff bill. Hc seems to forget that hard
times came pretty rapidly after the pas
sage of the Mckinley bill during Harri-
sons administration. Republicans seem
to he very forgetful in regard to this mat
ter; but they will have Il fair chance to
give the people II sample OF the benefits of
tariff leeisation us it seems to be the
general determination of the opposition
to throw no obstacles in the way Of such
legislation. AS far rs Cuba was concern
ed General Alger refused to talk, as he
will have charge of the war department,
and rs the UnitcdStates may have IL brush
with Spain, he probably thought his ac
tions at an early date might speak louder
than words.

Washington, Feb. 21.-A conflict he
tween labor and capital took place in the
morning hour of the Senate to. day 1t
came up in the shape OF Il resolution to
withdraw from the President an act an.
thorizing the Metropolitan Railroad Com.
pany, of Washington, to extend it's roads
into one OF the suburbs. That resolution
had been inspired by the knights of La
bor in order TO punish the railroad com.
pany Cor dismissing and refusing to take
back several of it's employees who were
members of that organization.
The Senator's most conspicuous in the
cause of labor were Mr.. Allen and Mr..
| Millsw, lille the cause of the railroad com.
pany was sustained by Senators McMilliu,
,i;tllinger and Faulkner, all of them
members OF the committee for the Dis
trict Of Columbia. inally the resolution
was laid on the table bv a vote of thirty
to twenty four. The rem. Under of the
days session WAS occupied in the consitl-
Grafton of the postoilice appropriation
bill. which apprOpriates 500, $50, 33S. The
points which led to discussion were the
item for the payment of railroad mail APP
preparation, and the proposition to create
II committee on that general subject Mr..
Butler, of North Carolina, desired to have
the railroads paid at the rates which are
Charged by express companies for like
service; but his amendment WAS ruled out
on point of order.
The Senate amendment for II Joint com
mttec of the two houses to Investigate
the whole subject was modified by the
committee itself, so as to provide for II
joint commission. IL nominal change only;
and to that II substitute was offered by
Mr.. Chandler proposing that TIE commit
tee shall consist of the two chairmen of
4. ,n tn{it in he
and House, the postmaster general and
two citizens to be appointed by the Pres.
ident and that the scope Of it's inquiry
shall embrace the correction of alleged
abuses in the postal service, ssincluding
second class matter, the extension of free
delivery in the rural region, the reduction
! of the cost of railroad transportation, the
adoption of one cent letter postage and
other like questions
In the course of the long debate on this
| subject Mr. Dubois, notified the Repub-
licans that they could not organize the
| Senate in the next session, and that the
silver Republican. Senators would not CO.
| operate with them. The action Of the Re-
publican convention ut St. Louis. he said,
| had caused the loss of the Pacific coast
| to the party, so that of the seven Sena-
| tors since elected there to take the place
| of Republicans only one Republican was
sent back.
| Mr. Hill, of New York, advocated Mr..
| Chambers substitute and criticised the
action of the committee OH appropriations
in relation to the subject, (which caused
the chairman of the committee Mr. Alli
| son, to express facetiously his satisfaction
ut the advice given to the Senate by the
Senators from Idaho and New York, .s
neither of them would have the opportun-
| ity of advising the Senate next session.
At q O'Clock II recess was taken until
$ o'clock.

we'll known to mankind rs the reward of
virtue.
There are so many causes, however,
that contribute to the downfall of weak
and erring mortals that the element of
charity should enter largely into our esti.
mates of the faults and frailtics of others.
Christ sums it all up in words of gold
when he says, "Whatsover We would that
men should do unto you, do ye.likewise
unto them, and again how ,potently he
illustratcs..t the .fallibity of human judg-
ment when he said to his prosecutors,
"Let him that is without sin cast the
first stone
Yes, our sins are sure to find us out: if
not in one way certainly in another, and
while the laws -of God hold II man to II
strict accountability for all the de eds
done in thu body, the laws of man should
hold the wrong-doer in the palace as rig
idly responsible for his deeds of wicked
ness as the aborer in his humble hc me,
with the element of charity always enter
ing largely into all human Judgments.
when we remember that ito err is
human: TO forget divine.
