St. Tammany farmer. [volume] (Covington, La.) 1874-current, 1905-02-18

IN 1864. He made his way to Wash.
.ngton and, like all negroes, looked on
Abraham Lincoln as the patron saint
OF his race, and the one to whom he
could appeal for help. He reached
President Lincoln and related his tale
of fleeing from slavery and coming to
Washington by the underground route.
MIR. Lincoln gave him minor place in
his household and, except for a year
OR two during Cleveland's first admin
istration, Arthur has been fixture in
the white house.
In all these years of rubbing against
statesmen and public officials Arthur
has received some polish, but he still
retains one noted trait of his race-a
love for the succulent 'possum. Every
holiday season some OF his old friends
in the south send him the finest, fat
test 'possums they can discover. 1t is
then that Arthur gloats over his fell
low employees at the white house.
Just you wait till next Sunday, and
if you want to see the best dinner in
Washington, come around to ny little
home'' he will say Il have the finest,
latest, persimmon-fed 'possrm, you
ever saw l will put him out. doors
in the frost until Sunday morning,
and then I'll have him cooked with
yams around him and with brown
gravy. Then there will be apple sauce
and persimmon sauce, and just taste
of something to wash it all down.

has not made good" They are pro-
posing to abolish the commission as II
now stands and authorize another OF
not more than three members, and
these gentlemen to receive salaries OF
not exceeding $500 year each. The
salaries of the present commission are
$4,000 year. Naturally there will be
some opposition to reducing this COM
mission, and especially to reduction
in it's compensation. The commission,
of which Rear Admiral Walker is
chairman, is prepared to show that
each member has performed valuable
service, and that its future work de-
mands at least seven members, each
one of whom can have particular
branch of the work in charge.
The house committee, of which Mr..
Hepburn, of Iowa, IS chairman, and
which visited the isthmus just before
the meeting of congress, seems partlc-
ularly set against continuance OF the
present commission. Members assert
that the commission has done very lit
tie work and that all of a practical ma
ture that has been accomplished has
been due to Chief Engineer Wallace,
who is supposed to be subordinate to
the commission. These congressman
claim that the work should be put in
the hands of Engineer Wallace abso-
lutely, and that he be given authority
to select an advisory board of en-
gineers with whom he can consult on
the problems presented in the con-
struction of the canal. They are Will
ing to compromise by authorizing
commission of three men, who may
have charge of the executive features
of the enterprise, but who will not be
allowed to interfere with the ccnstruc-
ton and with the engineering details.
There is strong feeling that the
whole work should be placed under
the control of the army engineers in
the war department Engineer Wal
lace's report is now being awaited with
great interest, as it is believed that he
will show that a sea-level canal can
and ought to be constructed.

but his length of service was ecIipsed
by the late Justin S. Morrill,, of Yer
mcnt, and now Senator Allison is the
record breaker. Senator Benton had a
continuous service in the senate of 30
years. On the day of his death Sen
ator Morrill, had held seat continu-
ously in the senate for 81 years, 8
months and "a days. Senator Allison,
on the first of January, had rounded
out 81 years, 9 months and 26 days.
On the 4th of next March he VIII have
been in the senate continuously 50
years, having taken his seat for the
first time on March 4, 1873.
There have been senators who could
trace back their entry into the senate
for many more years than any of
these distinguished statesmen who
held their seats continuously for SC
long. For instance, there was the late
John Sherman, of Ohio, who took his
seat as the successor Of Salmon P.
Chase, who had been made secretary
of the treasury in President I4incoln's
cabinet on March %, 1861. He re-

1897, or &c years after he had first
taken the oath. In the meantime, how
ever, he had left the senate for four
years to become secretary of the treas
ury under President Hayes. His total
service was 81 years, IL months and
IA days.
Senator Stewart, of Nevada, who
will retire on the 4th of March, first
took his seat February l, 1865, just 40
years ago the LIST of next month. His
service, however, was broken by an in
terval of IL years from 1875 to 1887.
Senator Allison had eight years to his
credit in the house before he went to
the senate, SO that on March he will
have rounded out 40 years of continu-
GUS service in congress. He is still
hale and hearty, although he will be
Is years of age on March 2, and bids
fair to establish record in the senate
that may not be broken for a century
to come.

debate, and who seldom make speeches
on the general legislation. 1t happens
frequently, however, that subjects are
introduced with which they ale thor
oughly familiar, and it is then that
they command attention and are lis
tened to with interest by their col
leagues The late Senator Hanna es-
tablished his reputation as ready de-
batter and forcible speechmaker
when he addressed the senate on the
subject of an isthmian canal. The
construction of canals which involves
the use of excavating machinery was
something with which Mr.. Hanna was
altogether familiar, and the convin-
cling way in which he talked of this
business proposition made his speeches
the most effective of any delivered on
the floor of the senate.
The majority of the senators are
lawyers. many of them theorists, and
not few purely sophomore orators.
It was a delight to them to listen to
some one who could talk practical
common sense and enlighten them on
business methods which he could ex-
plain in way to be understood. Sen
atOr Hanna could tell to fraction of
a cent the cost of excavating various
kinds of rock and earth, and he could
explain in language free from techni-
calities great engineering problems, SO
that his business talks to the senate
had more effect than hours and days
Of debate by the theorists in that
body.
Senator Kearns, of Utah, has seldom
opened his mouth in the senate, but
the other day, when the subject of the
mining laws and practical mining
came up, Mr. Kearns took the floor
and was at once at his ease in discus
sing a subject which he knows from
the bottom up. He had learned mining
from the pick and shovel up to the
latest mechanical method, and there
was no point in the whole subject with
which he was not familiar. The SEN
ate listened to him with great atten-
ton, but when he talked of lodges,
outcrops, surface indication, dips, lev
els, Stag, strikes, extra lateral rights,
veins, bounding planes, segment,
quartzite, apex law, drifts, bores, YER
teal surface, everything formations,
ETC., his colleagues were ready to ac-
cept his statements on faith.

Mr.. Hemmenway, chairman of the
house committee on appropriations,
already in line, there promises to be a
pretty strict enforcement of the econo-
my policy. A gentleman entered the
senate committee on appropriations
the other day with lighted cigar in
his mouth, and happened to see Sen
ator Spooner, of Wisconsin, sitting
there. Removing his cigar, he asked,
alphabetically: Beg pardon. do you
allow smoking in this room?"
''Oh," responded Mr.. Spooner, any
thing is allowed in this room except
appropriations"
"Uncle Joe," as the speaker is ia
miliarly known, is very much agitated
over the s30,O00,0O0 gap between I'm
Gle Sans vest and breaches. He has
warned 1.-The boys" as he terms the
members of the house, that they must
go slow on expenditures and help him
to close that gap as far as possible.
He has succeeded in cutting down the
military appropriation bill $7.OOO,0OO,
and is now at work on the naval COM
mittee trying to persuade that body
that the departments estimate OF
$4,000, 900 is entirely too high. He
advocates retrenchment in the con-
struction of vessels. and declares that
it would be perfectly safe to delay
building any more battleships until it
is discovered whether they are the
very best type of naval architecture.
In this move he has the backing OF
Mr.. Hale, chairman of the senate COM
mittee on naval affairs, SO that the
prospect of three battleships, five or
six cruisers, and as many scout ships,
which have been recommended. being
built is not very good

ConStnntinople, F eb. 9-The victory
OF Germany in capturing the contract
for the rearmament of the Turkish ar
t'llery threatens to result in serious
disturbance of Franco Turkish politi-
ca! relations. The French ambassador
here NJ. Constans. proposes to leave
Constantinople soon for Paris to con-
suit with Foreign Minister Delcasse.
Meanwhile the ambassador has in
formed the Turkish government that
the french market Els closed to anv
fresh Turkish loan
Twefik Pasha, foreign minister, tried
to compromise the matter, offering to
settle the Syrian railway question in
a manner chiefly favorable to French
claimants and to purchase military
equipment to the amount Of $4,000, 600
in France. The ambassador, however.
demanded the expenditure of $6,00O,-
900, being one-third the value of the
new armament, with French gun fac
tories, and complete satisfaction of
u'ufdnuS regarding railroads..
These terms the ambassador declared
to be final, and not having received a
reply up to Feb. 6, the ambassador in
formed the Turkish government that
he refused to continue negotiations,
adding that the French lnraket was
closed to further Turkish loars. AS
a result Of this notification, the otto
man bank withdrew it's proposals for
a projected loan and notified Minister
Of Finance Rehsad Pasha that it would
not entertain any request of the gov
for advances. The Deutsche
bank then came to tho portes aid with
an offer to assist the treasurer. The
Germans thus are in complete posses
sion of the financial field and an trade
has already been promulgated order
ing the purchase of all news guns in
German factories, but it has been de-
cided only to rearm sixty batteries at
present instead Of 142, as originally
proposed.
