CURRENT POLITICS.
From the WashingLon Times.l


Governor Hum has announced his intention
20 call special session of the Delaware legsla-
turc in order that another opportunity may be
given 10 that body 10 elect two United States
senators, and thus put an end TO the anomalous
condition OF one OF the States Of the Union hav-
ing no representation in the more important
branch Of congress. The governor and other re-
publican leaders OF Delaware frankly admit that
an extra session is advisable because OF the pro.
babiltv OF a democratic victory in the State next
month. Delawarc's constitution does not en-
power the governor to call an extraordinary
meeting OF the legislature for the election of
senators, though, Of course he has the power to
assemble the lawmakers for other public pur-
poses and while they are in session they can elect
senators. AT any rate, this 10 the Interpretation
OF the constitution given by Governor Hunn's
legal advisers, There is no certainty, however,
thar the legislature can agree on the election OF
two senators when Il meets. The present body
has wrested with that subject through one full
regular session, ard when Il adjourned by con-
stitutional limitation It was as badly divided be-
tween the AddiekS and Dupont factions as when
il FIRST came together II Is not known that
anything has occurred since then 70 compose the

OVER in the Fifteenth congressional district
men, some OF whom are supposed to be intelli-
gent, are urging the election Of Mr.. Scott on the
ground that it would be good policy TO send re-
publican 10 congress because he would have more
influence in obtaining government appropria-
lions for Texas. When 1t is remembered that
Of the rivers and harbors appropriation made by
the last congress Texas gets about one-twelfth OF
the entire amount that not a single republican
was in congress from Texas, and that this mag
niheent result was obtained by solid demo-
cratic delegation the contention alluded 20 above
is well calculated TO excite smile.

State Chemist John NJ McCandless has just
completed an exhaustive analysis of the Georgia
peach in order to ascertain the correct tertllzing
conducive TO its best cultivation. His report,
which follows will be read with interest by those
interested in peach culture in Georgia:
In view Of the great and growing Importance of
the peach crop Of this State and at the request
Of those interested in the matter, we have, in
the intervals of official work made and just
completed an analysis, giving the more important
constituents of the peach, and especially full
and complete analysis Of the ash mineral mat
ter
Through the courtesy and interest in the mat
ter of State Eutomologist Scott, ! received a
crate of fine Elbertas, and we at once commenced
the analysis. The sugar and the nitrogen, being
the important and interesting organic constt-
uents were at once determined in the fresh
fruit with the following results;
Per Cent
Total sugar. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
Nitrogen ,..,-..,.. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. OLA
Equivalent to protein. ................... Io8
Then came the slow process OF ascertaining the
nature and amount of the mineral elements con
tanned in the peach We took I kilogramme
(about 2 IA pounds OF the peaches and dried
them slowly at a gentle heat as they became
dry they were transferred to large platinum dish
and eharred slowly at a somewhat higher tenn
perature, the process OF incarceration or reduc-
ton to a pure white ash consuming several days
| aud nights, 1t is necessary to be especially
careful in this part of the work to avoid tenn
perature above all redness, else certain parts oil
| the ash might be lost When the incarceration
was finished and the last bit OF carbon burnt off
| the pure ash remaining amounted to 40 per cen
| Of the weight of the peaches used, or Just abou
enough TO analyze without wasting any

lanes A. Garfield was man Of
very industrious habits and had no
patience with the idle born. On
one occasion when questioned in
regard to his opinion he said:
Poverty is uncomfortable, as |
can testify. but nine times out OF
ten the best thing that can happen
to a young man IS to be tossed
overheard and compelled TO sink
or swim. In all my acquaintance.
| have never known a man to be
drowned who was worth the saw
ing"
That was putting 1t rather
strong, but Garfield was man OF
positive notions and had a direct
way OF saying things that were
sometimes uncomiortabiy near
home.

Vssin Revision.

There is nothing new or strange
in the demand for tariff revision.
The Dingley law was passed five
years age, and has lasted some
months longer than the average OF
its predecessors. In the forty
years preceding its enactment the
customs duties were changed
more or less radically nine times.
to say nothing of petty changes.
The low tariff of 1896, so modified
in 1857 that it became the lowest
in the history of the country, last
ed until 1861. There were other
changes IN 1864. 1870, 1877, 1875
and 1883. Then in 1890 the Nc
Kinley bill became law, to be
displaced by the Wilson German
tariff in 1884,; and that in turn gave
way to the DingIey act three years
later.
The protection idea has been the
dominant one in all these different
tariffs save that OF 1876 and that
OF 1894; and the 1894 tariff fell SO
far short OF what the tariff reform
ers thought it should be that Pres
ident Cleveland refused to sign it,
and it became a law without his
approval.
The current demand for revision
comes from those protectionists
who believe that the "tariff is the
mother of trusts" and from those
revenue reformers who think that
the policy OF protection should be
abandoned. The movement is op-
posed by most Of the protection
lists, whose system is attacked,
and by some conservatives who
dread the evil effect Of tariff agita-
tion upon business.
All these people honestly desire
the good of the country. They
differ as to the way to bring it
about. II IS not in the province
of The Companion to express an
opinion upon such matter Of pub
lic policy. Ii merely notes the
fact that q considerable body Of
voters IS not satisfied with the ex-
issing Law, and desires it changed.
Il rem aims to be seen whether they
are numerous enough and can
agree we'll enough among them
selves - to what changes are de-
sirable to bring about the revision.

This is the season when the

is to be awakened in the middle Of

are almost as sure to be lost. in
case of Group, as revolver is sure

There used to be an old fashioned
