CHARGED WITH KILLING BABY

NhAhpbD WIN hAbLANN
Constable George S. Dent, of La Plata,
Nd, arrested yesterday Georgiana
Driver, a colored girl about eighteen
years of age, charged with having
caused the death of an infant son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Francis l.. Edelen, re-
siding near Gallant Green, by giving
it concentrated I've. The girl was en-
ployed by the Edelen family, and on
January 26 last, while the mother was
temporarily absent doing some work out
doors, it is alleged that G~eorgiana'g gave
the child the lye. The mother, hear
ing the child cry, fastened 10 it, where
upon the colored girl disappeared. The
lips of the child were badly burned,
aud the odor of the lye was discernible.
DR.. II. Bowen, of Moodville, was sum-
moned, but could give nc relief, and
death ensued a day or two later. The
child was about seventeen months old.
Why the woman took the child's life
is not known, but it is rumored that
there had been some trouble between
her and the child's parents, and that
she took revenge by killing the little
one.

F~ifty-Eighth Congress.
Washington, d. c., Feb. 2.
SENATE.

Rabbi David Philipson, Of Cincinnati
Ohio, opened the Senate with prayer to-
day. This is the fourth time that's Jew.
ish divine has oficiated in the Senate,
the last time two years ago. He invoked
Divine blessing upon the President and
those in charge of the government, and
prayed that those ever in charge of the
helm should so guide the ship of State
that the government might stand as the
exemplar of Justice, the protector of the
weak, the lover of peace, and a haven of
peace for the oppressed everywhere.
A resolution, was agreed to which
empowered the special committee ap-
pointed to investigate the official conduct
Of Senator C. H. Dietrich, in connec-
ton with the postofice at Hastings,
Neb., to employ a stenographer, examine
witnesses, under oath, send for persons
and papers and sit during the session of
the Senate.
At the conclusion of the routine bust
ness, Mr.. Fairbanks took the floor to
discuss the Panama question and defend
ed the policy of the administration.
HOUSE.
Mr.. Dalzel presented a resolution from
the rules committee giving the Porto
Rican resident commissioner the right to
speak in the House and an assignment
on the committee on insular affairs.
Mr.. Dalzell asked for the previous
question.
Mr.. Williams raised the point that
he had a right to move to recOmmit the
resolution, with instructions to report it
back to the House, after it has been
amended so as to give the Porto Rican
commissioner the same rights in the
House as are enjoyed by delegates.
Speaker Cannon held that Mr.. Dali
zelps demand for the previous question
could not be interfered with by any
other motion.
On Mr.. Dalzell's demand, for the
previous question, Mr.. Williams de-
manded a rising vote. The vote was on
strict party lines, and resulted Ill to
1O4, and the previous question was
ordered.
Mr.. Dalzell explained briefly the
provisions of the resolution.
Mr.. Williams said that there was no
reason why the representative from
Porto Rico should not have the same
rights as the delegate from Hawaii.

That is the terse advice we want to

remedy be DIR. Boschee's German

over thirty-fve years. A few doses
of it will undoubtedly relieve your
cough or cold, and its continued use
for a few days will cure you COM

OUR CITIES ARE DEMO-
CRATIC.

The Washington Post calls atten-
ton to the fact that our cities show
as strong a democratic tendency as
the rural districts show a Republ1-
can tendency. And the urban vote
is gaining on the rural vote. In
Maryland, Baltimore now casts one
half of the vote of that State. In
New York three cities, New York,
Albany and Rochester are equal to
all the rest of the State in voting
power. Cincinnati, Cleveland, Co
lumbus, Toledo and Dayton will
soon dominate Ohio. We might
! add other instances showing how
potential the urban vote is becom-
ing. In each census the rural vote
drops lower and lower in the scale.
One does not have to go far to as
certain the reason of the divergence.
In the country the farmers are as a
rule content with the situation; in
the cities there is a world of discon-
! tent and hardship. The wage-earner
in the cities has to pay the high
! prices; his rem bill isoften increased;
trusts monopolize many of the nee
essities of life and employment is
scarce and uncertain. This condi-
ton of affairs in the cities fills them
with men who ere dissatisfied with
the extravaganza and Dingleyism OF
the party in power. Strikes and high
prices characterize the life of the
wage-earner of to-day. He is drift
ing farther and farther away from
the Republican party, and. he may
bring up in the increasing ranks o.
the socialists. These facts point to
the defeat soon Or later Of the Re
publican party, simply because the
urban is outrunning the rural vote
The increased cost of living in cities
is depicting the ranks of the Repub'
llican party, and there are men who
Anticipate large Democratic gains il
almost every city in the land.
