OUR WASHINGTON LETTER
WAsnrserer, D. @. Jt1. ii, 1898.

WAsn1HeTeH, D. @. J4H. II, 1ses.
Mr.. HDIToR:-Demoerats In Con-
gress are greatly rejoicsd over the re-
cent exchange Of ceurtssies bstw co y
Rep. John Sharpe Williams and Rep.
De Almond Of the door Of the House.
Is WAS feared that the aItsrcation which
occurred between these two strong
Democrats would result in . permanent
enlargement and would SO weaken the
minority. A trifling debate over the
question of what should be done with
the report Of the joint committee on
Revision of the laws afforded the op-
portunity which Mr.. Williams seized.
yielding the foer to Mr.. De Almond
and SO peace was brou ght about. 1t
was naturally che place Of Mr.. Williams
to take the initiative in the recsncila.
ton. He had won the victory over
De Almond in the recent contest for
the House leadership and he has been
lected at the primaries of his state
for the Senate, to which no will be
GUY elected. When ne is it is entirely
likely that Judge De Almond will
, succeed him as minority leader.
The Presidents efforts to have a
naval surgeon command a naval ves-
sci seem destined to meet with failure
He has assigned Surgeon Stokes to tn 9
command of the hospital ship Relief,
and Stokes is now being addressed in
the Navy Department u Doctor-Cap-
tain, but it will take time and an $50,
COO to fit out the Relief and meanwhile
Senator Hale, chairman of the commit
tee on Naval Affairs has introduced q
bill forbidding the assignment Of sta 4
officers to the command Of any naval
vessel. Mr.. Hale's bill also prohibits
the existence of the Naval General
Board, which has been called into ex-
isssncs BY executive or der and despite
the fact that Congress has never been
willing to consent to its creation by
law.
Joseph g. Cannon, Speaker of the
Houss, has been caught red-handed
playing politics with House committee
places. At the beginning of the SEES
sion, Mr.. Cannon declared that he was
utterly opposed to the creation of the
White Mountain Forest Reserve and of
the Appalachian reserve and that in
ord er to prevent favorable reports on
these measures he purposed to reorga-
nize the committee ON Agriculture.
This he did, leaving, however, one
vacancy TO be flied later. At a recent
dinner in Washington member of
Congress IRON New England said to
the Speaker, Mr.. Speaker. I would
dearly 'ovo = . something to promote
your ltial interests in my Sec
ton but it is impossible. Now that it
has become generally known that you
are irrevocably opposed t. the White
Mountain reserve your name is like
red rag to bull in my neighborheod"
"Dear me-" replied the Speaker, I had
no idea that your people had that pro-
iect SO much at heart" Two days later
the Speaker filed the vacant place on
tho committee by naming Rep. Weeks
of Massachusetts,. who is the most ar
dent advocate Of the White Mountain
xeserYe In the country. Members are

The Iron Market.

The Iron Trade Review says
"Orders for lake vessels and freight
cars which will require about 5000
tons OF plates ana. shapes, negotiations
pending for ten or twelve other lake
vessels, and numerous inquiries for
cars have greatly improved the tone OF
the finished material market. In addi-
ton to the large orders placed. speci-
fcations on nearly all finished products
are coming in satisfactorily.
"rhe order for two lake vessels. fore
Swallowed last week. has been placed
by the Pittsburg Steamship company,
which is the vessel department OF the
United States Steel corporation. with
the American Shipbuilding company,
each vessel requiring about 5000 tons
Of steel The plates will be rolled at
the Homestead plant Of the Carnegie
Steel company. The ordering OF lake
vessels during season Of great depres-
sion ia lake traffic indicates confidence
that this years inactivity will be fol-
lowed by years of great prosperity.
The Chicago and Alton railroad has
ordered 1000 cars to be built by the
Standard Steel Car company OF Pitts
burg at its Hammond, Ind, plant.
The plates will be rolled by the Illinois
Steel company
The Atlantic Coast line has ordered
500 cars from the South Baltimore
Steel car company. and the Hartman
lines have awarded contract for 10, 600
tons Of structural material. II is ex-
pected that other western roads will
contract for between 40. 900 and 80, 600

On Tuesday, September lst the Re-
publicans of Michigan will have their
first opportunity 10 choose their candi-
date for governor by direct vote.
The welfare of the state and party
alike demand that there be the fullest
expression possible at the primaries.
No one is more anxious than DR..
Bradley that every. Republican voter
shall go to the polls on that day and
register his preference for governor.
Some seem 10 entertain the impress
sion that the registration which EMIT
les them 10 vote at an election also
qualities them TO vote at the party
primary. This is mistake and may
result in the disfranchisement Of thou
sand Of voters at the primaries
Every elector should remember that
in order 10 vote at the party primary,
September list, he must first enroll Sat-
urday. August 10th. unless enrolled for
the party primary two years ago. This
enrolment is entirely distinct from
the registration required in order TO
vote at the general election November
3rd.
The candidate who receives the high
est vote, no less than forty per cent of
the vote cast at the primary Septem-
Der LIST, will be the nominee OF the
party.
This is the best opportunity possible
to give the primary system rigid test
and IL seems TO me that the Importance
of the primary is worthy of some sac
rifice on the part OF the electors in
order that they may be qualified to
vote by enrolling August Goth.
