WASHINGTON.


I'm his aaa ess to the Governors Of the
an. go, = States. June s, 1883. y
There are four things which I hum
bly, conceive are essential to the we'll
being, l may even venture to say, 10
the existence of the United States, as
an Independent power.
First, an indissoluble union OF the
states under one federal head.
Secondly, a sacred regard to public
justice.
Thirdly, the adoption of a proper
peace establishment, and,
Fourthly, the prevalence of that pa
cific and friendly disposition among
the people of the United States which
will induce them to forget their To-
cal prejudices and policies; to make
these mutual concessions which are
requisite to the general prosperity;
and, in some instances, to sacrifice
their individual advantages to the in
terest of the community.
These are the pillars on which the
glorious fabric of our independently
and national character must be sup
ported. Liberty is the basis, and Who
ever would care to sap the founda-
ton, or overturn the structure, under
whatever specious pretext he may at
tempt it, will merit the bitterest exc
crations, and the severest punishment
: which can be inflicted by his injured
country.

Who Paints Him Bad?
The Columbia State says:

"Mr. Dial has been in New York re-
Gently and saw Mr.. Milliken. He de-
clares that Mr.. Milliken is not such a
bad man as he has been painted and
hat the greatest trouble to be feared
is that this mill fuss will brighten
northern capital away"
Our friend, Mr.. N. b. Dial, one of
Mr.. Milliken's attorneys, is referred
to. We should like to know who in
the South has yer painted Mr.. Milliken
as a bad man.? What is Mr.. Dial
talking about? Recently an anonymous
friend of Mr.. Milliken in S~partanburg
was quoted to the same effect.
Now it is a fact that nobody has de-
nounced Mr.. Milliken or villifed him or
spoken unkindly Of him. Nobody bears
him ill will. We suspect hat he is a
good mar according tohis lights" and
we have found him q kindly, aTable
man.
Mr.. Milliken openly and defantly adj
mits that he is trying to "fre" Mr.. w.
E. Lucas from the Laurens Mills be.
cause that gentleman withdrew bust
ness from a New York commission
house in which he is interested. There
is no issue of fact as to this. Mr.. Lu-
cas- alleges that he withdrew the bust
ness because another firm offered to do
the business for less money. If it be
conceded that j. p. Stevens & Com
pany will give the Laurens Mills the
same service for two per cent that Mr..
Milliken's wants three and four for,
Mr.. N. b. Dial himself will not deny
that Mr.. Lucas is right. Meanwhile,
if Mr.. Milliken has been painted as a
''bad man." the paint has been applied
by his own friends and not by those of
Mr.. Lucas. The commission question
is to be judged on its own merits.

earliest possible action looking to a
revision by congress of the tariff He
so informed the senators and repre-

with him at the White House last Sat
urday and he has made plain his po-
sition to others since that conference.
He will call the Fifty-ninth congress
into extraordinary session as soon as
the committees have indicted that
they are prepared to submit a tariff
measure for passage.
Thinks Schedules Should Be chanued.
One of those present at the con-
ference on Saturday said that. the
president informed him that while he
did not believe in any sweeping re-
auctions of the tariff and would abide
absolutely by the judgment of the two
yet he did think the schedules should
be thoroughly examined and there
should be a readjustment as to GER
tain of them. The president added
that his own view was that the special
session should take place at the earl
lest date by which the committees OF
the two houses could come to an agree
ment as to the bill. If they took this
view, he said, he would hold himself
ready, tc call the extraordinary ses-
sion at whatever time the members of
the two committees, and especially
the house committee on ways and
means, should inform him they would
be ready with their report.

WILLING TO CALL 1T WHEN.
EVER DESIRED.

Washington, Jan. 11.-Whether there
will be an extra session of congress
for revision Of the tariff is a ques-
ton, IN the expressed opinion of a
number of leaders of the senate, that
must be determined by the president
and the house. In other words, sew
eral senators contend steadfastly that
the responsibility of tariff revision agi-
tation must be borne by the house.
while the senate will join in perfect
ing such legislation as may be pro-
vided If an extra session is called by
the president and a bill be passed by
the house. I'd.
The senators holding this view are
not confined to those who, with certain
house leaders, attended the conference
held at the White House to sound the
sentiment of congress. Yet they as
sumo, without any public confirmation
Of the fact, that the attitude of the SEN
ate conferees was not in opposition to
tariff revision If that programme
should be decided upon by the presi-
dent. 1t is declared, therefore, that
the senate does not stand in the way
of an early decision as to the neces-
sity or advisability OF action by con.
gress before the next regular session
Of congress. 81
Senate Will Erect No Barrier.
Z Senators who plan to place on the
house the burden OF an extra session
argue that certain house members, in
discussing the relative positions of the

have not refrained from advancing
the charge that the senate does not
represent the people as does the house
and say that If opposition to an extra
session Is made effective 1t win not he
the senate that erects the barrier.
Few senators are to be found who
are willing to discuss the matter for
publication beyond saying that II a
