WASHINGTON LETTER.
By Chas. A. Edwards.
M. y 10th i9oj.
The Republicans gdTbadly scar
ed the last few day a of the session
of the Congresi that has just ad
journed and they insisted in *•*'"
Hug fast **
v.
hot shot
tster, so noiu and so fast that they
became demoralized. They were
ready and glad to quit and they
have left here with a scare thrown
into them as big as a t lowa barn.
They have flown to their respec
tive homes with the conviction
firmly fixed in their minds that
they are gone coons in the fight
hat is coming off this year and
they are plumb right. If we can
nominate the right kind of a nat
ional ticket they Are both from th
standpoint of the Executive and
the National House of Representa
tives. They are picking out a soft
place to fall right now. The last
two days of the life of this session
made the Republicans look like
thirty cents in Chinese money or
five cents worth of dog meat They
were no match for the Democrats
who tackled them. Little Dalze I
of Pennsylvania, who reminds you
of one of these little teter-backed
snipe which runs up and down a
sandy shore, was Wiped off the
round earth once more by one W.
Bourke Cockran. When Cockran
got through with him the second
lime he resembled a piece of rained
on edam or camembert cheese
He was flatter than a pumpkin pic
that had fallen from the top of the
Washington monumeut.
The very next day the Hon John
Sharp Williams, the brilliant tioor
leader of the democracy, the only
leader we have had since the days
of Sam Randall and Charlie Crisp,
who is to-day the Murat of debate
in the House of Representatives of
of the nation, took a fall out of
Littlefield of Maine, the verbal
cataract of the Republican side of
the House, that sounded like a bay
mule taking a fall out of a stable
door with both hind feet. He also
paid his respects to the Hon. John
Duzell> who had, in his speech,
animadverted upon the fore gner
in this country and who had saij
(hat the only hoodlums in this
country were those who had left
the country of their birth for thtir
country's good. In other words,
there were no hoodlums in this
country except foreign hoodlums,
Mr. Williams rung the changes on
this charge and defied the gentle
man from Pennsylvania to prove
that all foreign bom citizens in tliis
country are hoodlums, and he re
minded him of the fact that the so
called hoodlums of whom he spoke
had saved the state of Pennsylvania
from tle invasion of the Confed
crate armits on the field of Getty*
burg by the charge in that battle of
the 69th Pennsylvania Regiment
called "Owen's Own," an Irish
regiment, that saved the day for
the Northern arms. Mr. Williams
blistered him for his knownothing
ism and intolerance of the foreigner
who had come to this country of
his own free will and who had
fought for the principles of Democ
racy ever since. How do the
Germans and Irish of the country
who have been voting the Repub
lican ticket ever since they got
here like to be pilloried by the
leading Republican of the House of
Representative* as hoodlums and
no goods, as the scum of the earth
who came here for the country's
good? Do they relish it? If so let
them smoke the speech of Dalzell
in their pipes and see how it tastes.
• . •
Another symptom of alarm on
the part of the Republicans is the
trepidation with which the hitherto
invincible Babcock, the chairman
of the Republican Congressional
Committee, enters this campaign
Ai Opu Litter
From the Chapin, §. C.J
New*: Early in the Spring my 1
wife and I were taken with diar
rhoea and so severe were the pains
that we called a physician who pre
scribed for us, but his medicines
failed to give any relief. A friend
who had a bottle of Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy on hand
Kave each of us a doae and we at
once felt the effects. I procured a
bottle and before using the entire
contents we were entirely cured. It
is a wonderful remedy and should
be found in every household. H*

f>r the new Houae of the Fifty*
ninth Congress. He practically has
admitted to the leading members
of the Republican tide of the House
that they have no more chance to
win the next House than a one
legged man at * picking match.
He aaid that ha had warned them
that there was a demand for tariff
revision in many of the aections of
this country and that they had al
lowed the auggestion to go un
heeded. He informed them that it
had cost him thousands of dollars
to be renominated in his district on
account of the diaaffection of the
LaPoilette Republicans of the state
of Wisconsin, and that he doubted
very much if he could be re-elected
Now, the truth is that Babcock is
no more of a tariff reformer than
the veric.it trust beneficiary of the
tariff schedules in this country, but
he saw the gathering storm for
tariff reform and was quick to get
t > cover and warn his colaborcrs
in the tar ff vineyard tWtat some
thing was doing in the country
in the way of tariff revision, lie
did not do this because he is a
genuine reformer and believes in it,
but because he saw that unless he
did something of the kind he would
be left at home in hie own district,
is simply a type of the Repub
lican oppertunist who veers with
every wind and bends to every
passing breeze. He notes that the
pissing breeze haa become a cy
clone and he doubts his ability to
stem the hurricane of ballots that
will fall his in this next elec
ti.n.
Another item of legislation whkh
hjjs been used to bolster up another
Wisconsin statesman whose
chances of succeeding himself are
becoming a little ahady, was the
bill locating the four sites for the
(.amps of military instruction. It
is well known that the Republican
faction in Wisconsin, headed by
Gov. LaFollette, will oppose Sena
tor Queries for re-election. It is
also well known that the people of
Wisconsin are very anxious for one
of the o ctmpa of instruction.
During fttis session of Congress,
the wary senator, who is a member
Of the Senate Committe on Military
AflMra, has apparently pushed
with great energy thia bi I, thereby
impressing his guileless constitu
ency with the great necessity of
keeping him in Congress if they
are to finally capture one of the
much (overted camp aitea. Asa
matter of fact, wh eh is well known
here, there never was a chance for
this bill to pass, but nevertheless
it served its purpose at far as the
smooth senator is concerned.
Ihus the people are hoodwinked
The cerepionias attendant upon
the opening of the great World's
F«»ir at St Louia from this end of
the line were conducted in the
White House without a break.
Promptly at one o'clock on tht
afternoon of April joth, the Presi
dent of the United States presse i
the key ef a Morse telegraph in
stmment in the East room of the
Whito House and through the di
rect %ire connection which had
been arranged by the Postal Tele
graph Company conveyed instan
taneously to the great central
switchboard on tha World"r Fair
goun a, the e|eotric energy which
released the 40,000 horse power re
quired to operate the Cascades, the
great engine* in the Machinery
Hall and other mechanism of the
great Exposition. The member* of
the Cabinet, the Diplomatic Corp*,
the Chief Justice and the Associate
Justice* of the Supreme Court of
the United States, the President of
the Senate aad the Speaker of the
H ■« of Representatives together
a several other distinguished
rsonagen were present in tbe
/bite House during the ceremony.
A national salute of si guns was
fired on the Monument grounds,
just south of tbe Wfcits House, im
mediately fol owing the official
opening of the Exposition and the
Ma ine band was there and dis
coursed s*ee tmusk. In fact, v e
•n Washington were the only peo le
in the country who knew the exact
opening of the great show except
those actually participating in S:.
Louis.
It may be int. resting not ot.ly to
newspsper men throughout the
country, but to the people general
IT to know that the World's Press
Parliament, which wi I be in ses
sion at St. Louis from May 16 to
*i, will be the greatest gathering
of newspaper men ever brought to
gether. It is estimated that be
tween three and four thousand
representative newspaper men f;om
every state in the Federal Union
and every country in the world,
will be present. In the number
will be some of tbe most distin
guished foreign journalists from the
various capitals of Europe
* Secretary of State Hay w.l! open
the Parliament with a thirty minu
te* talk.
Other speakers already on the
programme will be Charles Emoty
Smith, CoL Henry Watterson and
Edward Bok. Daring the aession
receptions will be given by the
Kansas, Missouri, Indiana, Wiscon
sin, Arizona, Georgia, Texas, Ok
lahoma, lowa, West Virginia and
Idaho commissions, the Federation
oi Women's Clubs, and the Expo
ition itself. The entertainment
will conclude with a trip down the
Mississippi river on a palatial
steamer. For once the newspaper
men will be strictly in it.
"THE TAIL PIECE."
Hogarth's Great Picture Representing
the End «f All Things.
Hogarth, the famous satirist, pro
duced a picture that for its choice
of subjects has never been equaled.
Not long before the death of this
Ssnius he set about executing what
c facetiously termed "The Tail
Piece." While aitting at his own ta
ble in company with a number .of
boon companions he was asked by
one of them what would be the sub
ject Of his next drawing. He gloom
ily ailswercd, "The end of all
things." The next day he begnn the
design for thia paiuting, and when
finisned it proved a most ingenious
and unique effort. He grouped to
gether everything that could denote
"the end of all things."
On the canvas was seen a broken
bottle, a worn out atump of a
broom, the broken butt of an old
musket, an unstrung bow, a cracked
bell, a crown crumbling to pieces,
the ruins of a tower, the falling
signwwt of an inn called The
World's End, a waning moon, the
map of the globe burning, a gallows
falling into decay, the chains which
held tno body of the executed crimi
nal hanging down and broken; the
god of day (Phccbus) lying dead in
the clouds, a Wrecked vessel, a rep
rescntation of Father Time with a
broken scythe and hourgtass, a pipe
from which iaaued a faint cloud of
smoke, an open play book, with the
legend exeunt omnes (exit all)
stamped in the corner; an empty
purse and a statute of bankruptcy
taken out against nature.
The finishing touch consisted of a
broken palette upon which was in
scribed the word "Finia." Hogarth
saver again took hia palette in
hand, and one month after "The
Tail Piece" waa finished he paaaed
away.
■esahg Always Had a Onwt
"Empty teats and how to fill
them," was tha subject discussed at
a ministerial meeting which Henry
Ward Beecher and his manager.
Jamea B. Pond, attended while on
a lecturing tour. Beechcr was aako.
to say a few words. Unhesitatingly
the famous orator gate the assem
blage some of his experiences and
was listened to attentively. Major
Fond was then called upon for a few
words. His few words evoked grest
and spontaneous laughter. "If yon
wish to fill your enifty seats," said
he, "I would advise yon to consult
with Mr. Beechcr hero and hart
them delivered to him at Plvmout!'
church."
