In "a speech at a jackson Day
banquet in Dayton, Ohio. Mon
day evening last, the Sth inst,
Hon. JudSon Harmon, of Cincin-
natti, said:
lit is not given to us to meet
this year with rejoicing. as we
have done in years gone by. But
as we look into each others faces
we see no signs of faltering. We
take our defeat man fashion. 1t
has its lessons, and, learning
these, we renew the struggle the
Democracy has kept up for a
hundred years.
sit is comforting in these days
Of disappointment to remember
that defeat as well as victory is
, always contemporary because the
nature of the contest makes it
perpetual. On the one side are
those who seek special advantages
from control of the government;
on the other those who are de.
termined that the burdens of the
government shall be fairly appor
toned and its benefits equally
enjoyed by all the people,
There is no reason to lose
faith and hope. Great as the
Republican majorities were at
the last election, they do not
mean that the people condemn
the Democratic ideas of low
taxes levied for public uses only.
economy in their expenditure,
legislation and administration

with special tavorS to none; relief
from the oppression and corrup
tion of trusts and combinations
and home rule.
mo man eau trace the result
OF the election to all its causes,
but no one can think for mo-
ment that the chief cause.-the
vast numbe Of votes uncast-was
due to a change of heart on these
subjects. On the contrary, many
believe it was rather due to a sus
picion, whether well founded or
not, that the campaign was not
up to the platform and that there
was too much tenderness toward
successful and prospero
wrongs"

NEGRO CRUM CONFIRMED.
Senate Votes to Sustain Roose

tons Collector.

The nomination of w. ID.
Crum, negro, to be Collector of
Customs. for the port of Charles
town, S. c., was confirmed by the
Senate In executive session Fri
day by vote of SO to II.
Crum had been nominated by
the President three times, and, in
addition, had received three
recess appointments. He is now
serving under the last of these
three recess appointments. Con-
tirmation was opposed by Senator
B. Il. Tillmau, of South Carolina,
who objected to the appointment
of negro
Senator TillDan made a 81 eech
devoted almost entirely to the
question of the Constitutional
right of the President to make
a recess appointment when no
actual recess had occurred, the
Senate having adjourned one
session and begun another at
noon of the same day. He Intro
duced at the last session of Con
gress "a resolution on the subject
of constructive" recesses, which
was referred to the Committee on
the Judiciary. Senator Platt, OF
Connecticut, Chairman of that
committee, said the resolution
had been referred to subcom
m1ttee and that he expected a
report would be made later.
The race issue PLAYED an insig
niticant part in the debate, which
was participated in by fully a
dozen Senator'S.

mission he will he entitled tC

THE PRESIDENTS PLAN.

President Roosevelt favors the earli-
est possible action looking to a revision
by Congress of the tariff. He so in
formed the Senators and Representa-
tives who were in conference with him
at the White House last Saturday a'.d
he has made plain his p sition TO
Others since that conference He will
call the Fifty-ninth Congress into eX-
traordinary session as soon as the COM
mittees have indicated that they are
prepared to submit tariff measure for
passage
One If those present at the confer
ence On Saturday said that in view of
the many conflicting reports published
regarding the meeting, the President
informt them that while he did not
believe in any sweeping revision of
the tariff and would ABIDE absolutely
by the judgment of the two houses of
Con2reJs in Il matter that related so
particularly TO them, yet he did think
the time had come when the schedules
should BE- thoroughly examined and
there should be readjuslment as to
certain of them.
On another question, however, that
of legislation relating to the Interstate
freight rates of railroads, his mind is
quite made up. III will fight for that
legislation. He hopes to secure from
Congress some definite action regard
ing that legislation at the present ses-
sion, tut if he does not he will bring
the subject again before Congress at
the proposed extraordinary session.
and will urge with all his power the
crystallzation into law of the recon-
mendatlons he already has made to
Congress on that question.
Such at least are the assurances.
They l. ok well on the face, but if only
some good comts cut of all this talk,
the put lie can feel satisfied, as far as
it goes.

treasures is no mean part of house

the mistress of the house followed
the example of Dolly Madison
and Martha Washington and
washed her own breakfast dishes
then were fewer heart meanings
over broken dishes and less trial
of temper over Clipped edges and
broken dishes. Washing dishes
was function in the old Virginia
and Maryland mansions of that
day. To wash dishes properly be
gin right. Make ready to do the
work by cleaning off neatly, re.
moving every crumb and bit of
food from the dishes. Drain cups
and glasses, group each set of
dishes. Put the silver on a waiter
or tray to itself. Have plenty of
hot water and good soap and use
pearline to wash the meat dishes
as it cuts the greese so quickly.
1t is well to have a mop in the
winter as it saves your hands and
keeps them from chapping so bad.
Keep plenty of nice dish cloths
