design for a S3Q-note would be different IN
each case, making four different designs.
Excluding the gold certificates, for the
denominations from 81 to $500, there are
eight different notes for the greenbacks,
for the Treasury notes. The Secretary
will have the reading on the note tell wheth-
er it is a greenback, Treasury note, or
certificate.
Capt W. Fl. Walker, who had been a
clerk in the General Land Office since 1872,
died at his home on Vermont avenue, Aug.
IS, at the age of 81. He enlisted in Co.
E, 5th Mass, at the outbreak Of the rebel
lion, and served till it was discharged,
when he entered the Goth Mass, became
a Captain and served until discharged in
1854 on account of repeated wounds. he
was q member of John a. Rawlins Post,
the U. V. L., the Soldiers Alliance, and
the Second Corps Association. He was
buried at Arlington.
Commander Edward D. Taussig has
been relieved Of the command of the gun
boat Bennington by orders of Admiral
Watson, and ordered home from Manila.
He is said to have differed with the Ad-
miral as to the management of the fleet.
and his criticism led to the action. Unless
the officer should, upon his arrival in the
United States, seek to pursue the matter
and ask for a court of inquiry, it is likely
there will be no further steps in the matter.
At the conclusion of the Dewey celebra-
ton at New York Admiral Sampson will
be relieved of the command Of the North
Atlantic Squadron. This action is to be
taken at the request Of the Admiral, who
has already had much more than his por,

THOMAS B. REED.
There has not been in Washington since
the days of Daniel Webster as conspicuous
figure on the streets of Washington or in
rne House of Representatives as that of
''Tom" Reed, as he is familiarly known.
Our acquaintance with Mr.. Reed began
in 1880, wnen he was part OF the RepuD-
The National tribune., 1899-09-07

90, Speaker Reed,
Hadst thou been wise,
Taken thy good wife's advice,
Thou wouldst not now
Be getting roasted
For your opinion
You'd been toasted;
For she did warn
That you had better
Let alone a woman'S letter.
Impression does not suit our wish
When asked for your opinion;
But since you beat about the bush,'
We dare defy the peoples minion."
Every reader must have in mind the
uproar that broke out in the House and
over the land from certain people wher
Mr. Reed, as Speaker of the House, es
tablished, or put into action, the rule ol
counting a quorum. When fihbusterine
ran riot to the complete stoppage of al
business, he used the power that this rule
had given him-Rule Is, clause Sd:
"On the demand of any member or at the
suggestion of the Speaker, the names OF
members sufficient TO make a quorum II
the hall of the House, who do not vote
shall be noted by the clerk, and recorded
in the Journal, and reported to the Speaker
with the names of the members voting
and be counted and announced in deter
mining the presence of a quorum to dc
business"
Previous to this dilatory motions would
be INDUCED ina motion to adjourn,
motion to take a recess, and a motion tt
adjourn to future day; motions which
are absolutely necessary for the transactlor
of business, yet time and again they were
used merely to obstruct rather than t.
facilitate business. In fact, every sub
terfuge was resorted to to keep Legitimate
business from coming up. They uset
the power of the letter rather than thu
spirit of parliamentary rules.
Speaker Reed took the stand that rule:
were made to facilitate business, and tina
members did not act in their own right, bu
in the right of their constituents; as ;
body they represent the people of the Unitet
States, and have, therefore, no right +
INIT their own power; that rules shoul'
not be barriers, but guides. He say
public opinion is the ultimate governing
power, and it depends upon the people +
prevent this waste CT time and the injustice
of delay.
In spite of his Czarship, he was reelected
every two years. Even if portion OF hi
party had become restive they could hav
defeated him by the aid of Democrati
votes 1t is well understood that he wa
the man for the place, and did more t
make the House working body than an.
anrc
We do not forget that Speaker Crisl
found his methods very helpful when h
was Speaker, and did not hesitate to adop
the methods of the Gar. Thomas b
Reed today is undoubtedly the most abl
man in the Republican party. and it hatl
not yet appeared how great the loss vii
prove to be of his retirement.

HOLD FOR BETTER PRIGES.

The cotton crop in Arkansas, Louisiana, north and northeast Texas, 1rdian Territory and Okla homa is very short. In many in stances there will not be ha,f crop gathered. First the crop was de- layed and retarded by the early floods; then came the idrouth at the end of the season and the crop was severely injured. Up to this date the receipts in Arkansas have not been more than half what they were at similar periods last year. The market quotations will bear out this statement A similar condition prevails in the other states and ter ritories mentioned, Under the cir cumstances their cotton, and the chances are the present advances will continue unless the planters rush to market and create the i'm pression that the crop is bigger than it really is. Believing as we do that prices should advance stead fly, we advise planters to hold thelc cotton back. IL is hardly possible that pricesscan fall. As the season advances it wilt become more and more apparent that the lowest esti- mates of the crop are exaggerated, aud this will have better tendency. Therefore the farmers have every thing to gain aud nothing to lose by holding their cotton for better prices. Arkansas Democrat.

A Strawberry Possibility.

An exceedingly pretty strawberry dessert as we'll as delicious one is called strawberry fromage. Here is the recipe. Soak an ounce or gela,4n in a half pint of cold water half an hour. Press a quart of clean, rich strawberries through flour sieve fine enough to prevent the seeds from go- ing through; add one cup of pulyerized sugar, few drops of cochineal, to give a bright color, and the gelatin just melted over the tea kettle Stir unul it begins to thicken, having the pan containing the mixture within another pan of chopped ice. As it thickens, beat in rapidly one pint of whipped cream. Line mold with lady fingers, ill with the fromage; cover and pack in ice and rock salt for two hours, when it will be found frozen and ready 10 serve.

Leslie's Weekly Interest has been manifested in the statement nat the Chinese minister at Washington, Wou Ting Fang, will probably be recalled to China to join the Tsung- -Li-Yamen. Newspaper readers are often unable to understand the meaning of the Tsung L-Yamen in China The members of this body apparently have much to do with the government. and is often re- ferred to in connection with Chinese complications. The Tsung-Li-Yamen is body analogous to the presidents cabinet, deriving it's powers from the emperor and subjected to his whims and notions. If the members blunder they may be deprived of rank. banished or decapitated, and in this respect, of course. the analogy ceases.

PUBLIC BUILDING BILLS.
House VIII Devote One More Day to
Their Consideration.

WASHINGTON, Feb. S.-The net re-
suit of the work during the two days
allotted for the considera ton of public
building bills in the house was the
passage of single BILL providing for
the erection of a building at Newport
News. Va, at a cost of S75, ,000 Sixty
five bills in all, carrying or authorizing
the expenditure of about 10000, 600,
were favorably considered in commit
tee of the whole when the committee
rose today, but because seventeen
other bills reported had not been acted
upon in committee. flibustering tactics
vance the bills favorabiy acted upon
in committee were blocked. The sec
ond bill appropria ting s47, 900 for
building in Blair City. Neb., got as far
as the third reading when demand
for the production of the engrossed
bill prevented it from being placed
upon it's passage. The previous ques-
ton had been ordered on the Altoona,
Pa, bill carrying 1925 900, when the
house adjourned, SO that it will be the
unfinished business tomorrow All the
other bills. however lose the privileged
status they had by virtue of the special
order. Another day. therefore, will
have to be allotted to secure action
upon them and assurances have al
ready been obtained for another day
as soon as the appropriation bills are
out of the way. Twenty-four bills were
favorably acted upon by the committee
today.
