The House Committee on Printing
has authorised a favorable report on
a resolution to print 10,000 copies of
a compilation of the inaugural ad
dresses of the Presidents of the Uni
ted States from George Washington
to Benjamin Harrison inclusive for
the first century of Presidential In
augurations, with authenticated iu-
idents connected therewitn, nio-
graphlcal sketches of the Presidents
from official sources, together with
steel plate portraits of the Presi
dents and steel plate illustrations of
the Capitol and White House; also,
on a resolution providing tor tne
printing of 10,000 additional copies
of the volume known as the "Growth
.f Industrial Art," with some additions.
The indications are that Mr.Brow
- er.of Mount Airy, who now poses in
Congress as the Representative of
the Fifth District, will have a vsry
rough row of stumps to travel to se
cure a re-nomination. The Wll-
' mington Star says that he hasn't
- panned out with any of the numer
ous promises he made in the late
canvass, and the way he has divided
out the oatronatre of which he has
. .. . t - -
bad the distribution has riled many
of the faithful, especially the colored
Contingent which stood by him so
unanimously at the last election
, They are kicking against the way h
has ignored their claims and are now
talking seriously of putting up a col
ored man to run against him if h
should be nominated. There are
several Democratic candidates men
tioned, any one of whom ought to be
' 'able to shake the very boots off of
! him.
-. Senator Ingalls Bays that Harrison
will be a candidate for re-nomina
tion.. The State Chronicle remarks:
The Democrats ask nothing better
than that the Republicans should
re-nominate the present occupant of
. the WThlte House. He has made less
impression upon the public and done
less to win the people than any man
who has been President since his
grandfather, who died shortly after
his inauguration. The sentiment of
the country Is that he is the smallest
man who has been elected to Chief
Magistracy In the history of the re
public In every local election held
. In Indiana since Dudley bought the
Presidential election the Democrats
have made gains. This rebuke at
home, as well as in Ohio and Iowa
' looks ominous for the fulfillment of
.. Mr. IngalF'B prediction.
Petitions and protests in respect of
the tariff are beginning to make
their appearance in the Senate. Sen-
ator Manderson presented protest?
from the farmers of Dodge and Pierce
counties, Neb., and Carroll county.
Iowa, against any material reduction
on sugar, and their petition for the
encouragement of and promotion of
the beet sugar Industry. He also
presented a protest from the cigar
makers of Plattsinouth, Neb., against
the adoption of the tobacco schedule
In the House bill. They suggest a
I duty of fifty cents a pound on all to
, bacco Imported, whether wrappers
. or fillers, and $r a thousand on cigars.
" They al6o protest against the dis-
- play of an import stamp on all ci-
- gars made in reign countries and
sold in the V- I:ed Ktatee.
' t. Out at Met. uiiB they are taking
,' hold berolsa 'y of the task of clean
ing the city. The board of health
have "order. I the destruction oi
ninety-five ."ookeriea in different
parts of the city, and the thorough
fumigation of a hundred or so others.
' This, thorough work, with equally
-' thorough methods of street and alley
