WASHINGTON LETTER.

Washington, june 18th, 1877
A number OF Senators think like
the late General Hancock. that the
tariff is local issue, and, what Is
more important, are voting that
way. as the schedules are re ached
containing protective duties upon
products OF their 8 Lates. The most
notable instances OF this during
the past week were the Georgia
SenaIors-Baoon and Clay-who
both supported the tariff on luu-
Der, ding the appeals
OF such leaders OF their party AS
Mo-, to keep lumber on the free
list. Senator Bacon qualified his
support by saying that he was
not probectionist, but that stern
necessities OF the government re-
quired tariff, and a high tariff;
but his colleague, Senator Clay,
in what was his maiden speech,
declared himself emphatieally
against free trade and in favor of
tariff sufficient to carry on the
government economically admin

neither gentleman said anything
about Georgia being large lum-

There is still more or less grum-
bling about the tariff bill not being
disposed of fast enough by the
Senate, but as matter OF fact,
1T Is doubtful whether there is a
single Senator who is not surpris-
ed at the the progress made on

what he said may be found in the

outside OF the committee room
All talk about autonomy and OF

Thus far We have only general
lied. Now We shall parncularize
The writer knows man in
Shreveport who came here a poor
man, was given food and clothing
and shelter by poor people, and
who now oevotes much time and
money TO relieve their wants. He
learned TO love the poor. They
ministered unto him when the
doors Of the rich and prosperous
had been shut in his face. Those
were the doors Of the poor rich
The pathos Of poverty
is an expression to conJure with.
There is much that is pathetic in
the short and simple annals of
the poor" Many Of the men who
are seemingly rough have hearts
as tender as a woman's- Only
recently the writer has known
some of them to give their last
dime to another who was in need
Of medicine or food. And others
who have sat up all night that
some weak, worn and weary man
might sleep in his bed And
others who have voluntarily ap-
preached some down-cart and
respondent stranger and asked
Whist they could do for him2
These occurrences are not occas-
sional, but happen every day an d
nigh fright here in Shreveport, and
yet many of these men are of rough
exterior and few words That one
of them probably ever heard of
that profound expression, "all you
can carry in your cold dead hands
is what you have given away"
that one of them ever thin ks of a
return or reward for what he does
1t is simply the impulse of the
heart, which is said to be the voice
of God
That expression, AL you can
carry in your cold dead hands is
what you have given away" has
a deeper meaning than the slow
! soul is apt to perceive
1t sounds paradoxical, yet it is
absolutely true. Think of it seri-
ously for a moment and its full
meaning viii unfold itself.
1t is not intended to institute any
invidious comparison between the
rich and the poor-only between
the poor rich" and the "rich

rich people in Shreveport whose

THE POOR RICH; AND THE RICH
POOR.
We have in Shreveport a GER
tain rich people who are really
very poor: and certain poor peo-
pie who are very rich.
A wit once exclaim ed, God
pity the rich, the poor can beg.
There seems som ething grotesque
in the very thought that those who
are rich in this worlds goods have
need of pity, but many OF them
do AS a rule the more a man a.c-
crlmulates the more he hardens
his heart against the needy and
suffering. All the well-springs OF
his nature. all the impulses to do
good seems to dry completely
As We once heard it expressed, in
language more forceful than
elegant, The moment a man be-
gins TO get rich, the dog in him
begins to develop"
These facts furnish food for
rejection
