KNEW he WAS A TRAMP.

From the Washington Post.

From the Washington Post.
A Washington man who has been
touched by tramps and professional
beggars so often that he can tell, by the
step of the mendicant approaching from
the rear. his character and object, met
with a surprise one day last week. He
was hurrying down Pennsylvania ave-
nue., when a man of fairly respectable
appearance approached him and asked
that he be taken into some lunch room
and something be purchased for him to
eat. He did not begin a long tale of
distress, but the Washington man sized
him up as one of the regulars who was
really hungry or was trying to work an
old game.
The request was refused. as it hap
pened, really because the citizen did not
have any small change in his pocket
and was in q big hurry. Later in the
day he was approached by the same
man, who nearly threw the citizen into
a state of coma by drawing forth an
unwieldy bunch of greenbacks. You
thought / was just an ordinary bum

was rubbing it in, and the citizen made
| his escape al once.

Mr.. Dingley's Excuse.
cHE idle mills in NV England
received attention in the house

cHE idle mills in NeY England
received attention in the house
of representatives, yesterday, at
the hands of Mr.. Dingley. He made a
specious plea. He finds fault with the
South for having produced more cotton
than the market wants, that is to say,
the prosperity that ne promised and
that was going to start the mills didn't
come, so there isn't a good demand for
cotton. One result is drop in the price
OF cotton: another result, as Mr.. Ding
ley puts it, is that the mill owners are
stocked with cotton for which they
paid more than the current price; an
other result is that the operatives in
New England have to stand ali the
loss.
The truth is that the conditions that
have eliminated in idleness, which
presently will mean widespread misery,
in New England were surely reaching
their present stage before the time when
the relative size of the crop of cotton
could have been of account. Another
truth is that the country at large is not
furnishing the market required for the
support of the New England mills. The
people are not buying; they are not
taking the manufactured article at any
price. If the people had the money
wherewith to buy. does anybody sup
pose the mills would shut down? Are
we to conclude. as Mr.. Dingley would
have us. that cheap raw material and
abundant crops are national disaster?
If you follow Mr. Dingley's theory to
its logical conclusion, 1t amounts to
this, that the only way to keep New
England mill wages above the starva-
ton point is to get up a syndicate that
will limit the annual production of cot
ton. What these mills want is a mar
ket: they need demand for their pro-
duct That demand will fix the price OF
manufactured cotton at a figure that
will let the mills run. That demand is
not present because prosperous times
| haven't come to the millions of people
! who, when they have money, are CON
.sumers of the products of the mills

The Court House Project.

~ T the special election to be held
u next Tuesday. the election law,
under an unfair provision, may
operate so as to shut out some of the
citizens of the county who, on every
consideration that is just, ought to en-
joy the right to vote. The law Is as 1t
is, however. and it must be needed. The
Standard directs attention to the laws
provisions merely for the purpose of I'M
| pressing ON those whose right to vote
! is assured the necessity for their pres
| enee at the polls.
There can be no question that the
voice OF the county is emphatically In
| favor of voting the proposed bonds and
/ building the court house, but 1t be-
comes necessary to remind those who
! favor the project that there Is opposi-
| ton to the measure. Those who. for
whatever reason. oppose the court
house project. will be sure To go 10 the
polls and cast their vote. As rule
those who favor the plan, assuming that
it will prevail anyhow. are the voters
| who will be most apt to neglect their
own share of responsibility In the
| matter.
1t so happens that the transfer of the
county seat TO Anaconda offended some
people who were shown to be small
minority in the citizenship Of the county
A year of experience has proven the
wisdom of the removal to this city-the
change simply established the county
headquarters at the place where seventy
per cent. of the people of the county

cent. of the business of the county CEN

wisdom of the change is frankly adj

Talk That Tires.

oW free Cuba would be IL the set
~ speeches of members of congress
/ had anything 10 do with MAX
ing the island free. Think of the space
that would be required on library
shelves for the volumes that could hold
this eloquence The war on the island
has been going on for the space of three
years. People wonder that Spain has
accomplished so little. Isn't IL more
wonder that this great big republic,
with all the Spanish cruelty and devil
try of these three years going on-isnt
IT more a wonder that this country has
talked so much yet has accomplished
absolutely nothing?
1t is getting so that a man runs risk
of making a laughing stock of himself
by taking the floor and pleading for
Cuba: apparently the best purpose the
unhappy island can serve is to be used
by one party or the other in senate or
house as a means whereby some politi-
cal advantage may be gained-as, for
instance. the proceedings in the lower
house yesterday and the day before. 1t
is a shame that the house majority
should stifie the utterance of what UNI
uuestionably Is prevailing public opin-
ion respecting Cuba, but this majority
takes its cue from President Mckinley $
December message; and the message
plainly meant that the administration
for the present or for long to come
doesn't intend to lift a finger in help
OF Cuba.
This is a direct violation of admins
tration pledges; when the republican
party was out for votes and wanted to
be in line with weli-defined public opin-
ion, it framed into its St. Louis plat
form plank which reads: We watch
with deep and abiding interest the
heroic battle of the Cuban patriots
against cruelty and oppression, and our
best hopes go out for the full success
of their determined contest for liberty.
The government of Spain having lost
control of Cuba, we believe that the
government of the United States should
actively use its influence and good
offices TO restore peace and give indie
pendence to the islands,
Strange that the party which went TO
the people on this platform profession.
actually applies the gag now 10 those
who propose that the government shall
assert the truth that was written in the
St. Louis platform. But SO it Is; with
the result that the public distrusts the
sincerity of all illusions to the Cuban
patriots and the oratorical froth IN
congress becomes nauseating. II al
makes the people tired.
And the shame of it is that If the mer

Before the Senate.

xCEPT Mr.. Carter, the group Of
senators from the silver states
went on record yesterday when
the senate voted on the question OF tax
ing up the Teller resolution. which re-
cites that 1t is lawful to pay the gov
ernment's obligations either in silver or
gold Utah's two senators voted in the
affirmative. So did Mr.. Clark and Mr.
Warren of Wyoming, and Mr.. Teller
and Mr.. Wolcott OF Colorado, and Mr.
Shoup and Mr. Heitfeld of Idaho. The
motion of Mr.. Vest was also supported
Mr. Kyle and Mr.. Pettigrew of South
Dakota, and by Mr.. Roach of North
Dakota. Mr.. Hansbrough of North Da-
kota voted with the goldbugs: Mr.. Car
ter of Montana is not recorded as hav-
ing voted at all.
The bulk of the vote in support of the
motion is democratic-the list includes
the name of Senator kenney Of Della
ware; Senator Gray of that state Is the
only democrat who stood with the
twenty-four republicans whose names
make up the list of the opposition. The
vote cast yesterday is total of sixty
six. 1t is easy TO guess how most OF
the senators who are not accounted for
would have voted, had they been pres
ent. The tally shows that the men who
have always done the fighting for silver
were on deck and ready TO answer the
roll as their names were called; the OPP
position includes the names OF the sena-
tors who have fought silver hard IN
recent years The single democrat
among them, Mr.. Gray, is a thorough
bred Cleveland goldbug
The Teller resolution Is now before
the senate Yesterdays course in that
body indicates that il will hold its place
as unfinished business. so that, unless
the goldbug republicans, who are loathe
to discuss it, permit IL TO come speedily
to a conclusion, we are likely to hear a
good deal about gold and silver during
the next few days As has been en-
planned by the Standard, the original
Matthews resolution of which the Tel
| Ter resolution is practically a reprodue-
ton. was warmly supported BY promi-
nent republicans, some of whom are still
in congress and one of whom, then IN
the house of representatives, is now the
president of the United States
/ How can the republicans who voted
| for the Tellerresolution yesterday profess
| loyalty at the same time to an admin
| istraton that has lately caused a spe-
/ eial messenger to proclaim that 1t pro
poses to keep the bond? What Il tho
bond? 1t is the plank in the st, Louis
| platform on which tho campaign of 1885,
was fought. That plank declares tina
| until international agreement as to sill
yer is obtained. the single gold stand

national agreement has not been OBJ
tanned, so that the supporters of the ad,
ministration are pledged to the propo
sition that the gold standard must b,
preserved. whereas the resolution il
support of which they voted yesterday i
an assertion that the gold standard shall
not be tolerated in this country.

the fact that he was de trop did not az

was an unpleasant constraint, as II an
evil spirit were present. The ugly man
remained seated, with his head bowed
down, frowning at space. Little by lit

recollections of departed friends, and
