RRoWNLoW,S Committees

The Washington correspondent of
the Chattanooga Times has the follow
ing to say of the Brownlow- Campbell
controversy:
East Tennessee papers containing
copies of the charges now being made
against Representative Brownlow by
Judge Campbell, of Elizabethton, to
the effect that in theappointmento of com
mIttees, Speaker Henderson dropped
Brownlow from the two important COM
mittees on when he served during the
last congress and placed him on unim-
portant committees, have caused con-
siderable merriment IN Tennessee cir
cles here. The charges are so hgrantly
false that they do not really need any
denial or refutation among those Ten
nesseans who are familiar with condi.
tons existing here. They illustrate,
however, how easy it is to impose upon
the unsuspecting and innocent public
in rural districts far removed from the
seat of government.
During the last congress Mr.. Brown
low served on two committees, while
this congress he has been assigned tc
four committees, the most important
assignments accorded any southern re-
publican. The committee on military
affairs is at this time the most import
ant committee of the house, by reason
of the fact that it passes on all matters
relating to the prosecution of the war.
The committee of expenditures in the
war department, of which he is also q
member, passes upon the accounts Of
all the money expended by the war de-
partment, which now amounts to about
$50, 900, 600 annually, and this year will
exceed that amount. He is also men,
Der of the select committee on census,
which has charge of the taking of the
present census of the United States and
all insular possessions, which is one Of
the most sought after places connected
with the committees of the house. In
addition to this he is also member OF
the committee on election of president,
vice-president and representatives in
congress. sgj
In view of the above cited facts,
Judge Campbell's charges, which are
made for the purpose Of injurlng Mr..
Brownlow in his fight for renomina'
ton, are looked upon here as likely tc
have a reactionary effect upon the
Judge.

Arguments in favor of the gold stand
ard bill must be very hard to get when
prominent republicans in the senate
stand up aud say that the bill is not
unfriendly to silver; that its becoming
law will not prevent continuation
of efforts for international bimetalism
and that sort of rot. The object of this
sort Of talk is obvious. There are re-
publican senators who will vote for this
bill who have numerous constituents
who believe in bimetalism. They are
to be bamboozled into the impression
that the gold standard bill is not an
attack on bimetalism. Another de-
Tense put forth for the bill is that 1t is
not really new legislation, but merely
re-affirmation of the Act Of '73. II
that be true, why pass the bill at all?
But that it isn't true, any more than the
statement about its not being antago-
nistic to bimetalism is shown by the
anxiety of the money kings to get it on
the statute books. 1t requires no gift
of inspired prophecy to say that the
United States will never again enjoy
the blessings of the bimetalic currency,
which distributes prosperity among the
whole people more equally than any
other form of currency until the people
elect congress and president, pledg,
ed to wipe the gold standard law oui
of existence, and to substitute there
for law providing for the double
standard. 1t is for the peolpe to say
how soon that shall be done.

The Roberts investigation is on its
last legs. Ex-Secretary Carlisle has be-
gun his argument against Roberts and
when he closes, which he is expected
to do about the middle of the week,
Roberts will be allowed to supplement
the argument he has already made by
replying. After that, the report will
soon follow. Roberts is doomed. He
never had chance, but if he had, he
would have spoiled it himself by his
own talk.
