and dom overhead your horse.
Says tn" Live Stock Reporter:
J. w. Blum, a prominent shipper
and feeder of Audrain county,
NO., marketed Il load of hogs Fri
day that were good enough to sell
ut $3.50 q $40. Mr.. Blum who
accompanied the shipment had the
following to say about crops. The
present dry weather added to
some of the early reverses will ma
terialIy affect the crops, pasturage
particularly showing up very
poorly, while oats which are just
heading cannot fill properly with
out some rain soon. Corn has not
suffered any set back as yet from
the continued dryness, but is get
ting near to the growing stage
where il little rain will be very
beneficial. Quite few cattle are
on feed in my section which will
be in condition to market in from
sixty to ninety days.
Perhaps it will be of interest
to the poor oppre SSed planter of
gardens to know the last Legisla-
ture passed Il law forbidding chick
ems to run at large. The law went
into effect April lst. No longer
must a man sweat that his neigh
Dor chickens may have fresh gar
den seed for breakfast. No longer
must he stand and humbly swear
while clucking hens wade knee
deep through his fresh flower beds.
No longer must he surreptitiOusly
hide the carcass of the fowl he
murdered in his wrath. Now he
has law back of him, and the hen
has no more right in this world of
early worms than the COW or fes-
tive goat. For her and her gallant
escort must henceforth play in
their own backyard, Even the cute
little chicks that used to be so hap
by in the fine fresh soil Of the
neighbours newly worked garden,
must abide at home or suffer the
penalty of law.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WAsnINGToN, d, G., Mar q 1905,
All hope of ratifying the ponini-
mean protocol has been abandoned
by the President and the Republican
leaders but the Senate has not yet
adjourned sine die, remaining IN ses-
sion on the ground that there are
certain judicial nominations which
must be confirmed before final adj
tournament can be taken On Thurs
day Senator Morgan of Alabama
sprung a sensation on the Senate by
tempting to show that William
Nelson Cromwell, the lawyer who
engineered the sale of the Panama
Canal property to the United States
and who is suspected by some '-cui'
ocrats of having melted the Panama
revolution, had been the deus ex
machina of the San Domingo stu
alton.
Senator Morgan exhibited to the
Senate letters from a Mr. and Mrs
Reeder, formerly of Alabama, il
which they charged that Cromwell
had defeated a treaty between San
to Domingo and the United States
which had been prepared by Mr.
Reeder, and that he had caused te
be substituted, the protocol now
under consideration by the Senate

duty on coffee with view to avoid
ing the necessity of revising the tar
if so that it will afford less pro.
lection and produce more revenue
1t is obvious that some method OF
Increasing the federal revenues must
be found, as the federal expenses
have materially increased and the
administration will be compelled to
draw heavily this year as it did last,
on the accumulated surplus, but it is
not true that there has been any
thought of placing duty on coffee
or tea as is reported. This report
has been industriously circulated in
Washington for some days but for a
time no one of the more reliable
newspapers could be. induced to
father it. Finally it was confded to
firm of newspaper writers whose
business consists of circulating re-
ports for pay, and then one OF the
leading newspapers of the country
displayed it prominently in its col
umns. The question naturally
arises. Who is to profit by the cir
culation of this report? Is it &
stock jobbing deal2 Does it eman
ate from German diplomatic circles
and is it put forth with a view tc
estranging Brazil from the Unite(
Slater for the benefit of German
trade? These are some of the ques

When the proposed Reeder treaty
was read in the Senate, it
was found to afford every advan-
tage to the Republic of Santo Do
mingo and to "the Reeder syndi-
cate" but none to this country and
il occasioned considerable ridicule at
the hands of the Republicans, bat
there are many Democrats who be-
ieve that there may be some foun-
dation for Mr. Morgan's charges
at least sufficient to warrant very
thorough investigation. Senator
Morgan has introduced in the Sen.
ate resolution instrueting the COM
mittee on Foreign Relations to con-
duct such investigation, by sub
committee or otherwise, but at pres
ent there seems little likelihood oil
its adoption, Meanwhile Mr.,
Cromwell has himself emphatically
denied that he has now nor ever
had any connection whatever with
Santo Domingo or that he would
profit in any respect from the ratih-

There is a mystery in Washington

tons which are being asked and TO
which no satisfactory answer is as
yet forthcoming
There is no doubt but that Presi-
dent Roosevelt will urge the next
Congress to revise the tariff, but
there is considerable doubt as to
whether or not the Congress will
be ready to respond to the executive
urging in fact chat the body has
already taken the first step by au-
thorizing its Finance committee to
sit during recess, hold hearings ard
subpoena witnesses-but the Sen
ate can do nothing with regard to
the tariff until the house takes the
initiative and that the speaker and
the little coterie which with him
controls the lower chamber per-
sistently refuse to do. The in
itiation of a revenue measure is the
one prerogatiye granted 10 the
House by the constitution which the
Senate does not share and the mem
bers are very ehary Of doing any
thing which might appear like a
yielding to the Senate on that point,
so that it is entirely possible that
the Senate's action looking to a
compliance with the President
views may have a deterrent effect
upon the House.
