WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent
For the Democrat
Will Mr. Harrison dare to
jump into the breach in his
party in the Senate? Helms
h en asked, aye be;fed, by
Senator Hoar, w ho recently
expressed himself as prefer
ring to see every manufacto
ry in New England in ashes
and the mechanics ml need to
50 cents a day and a diet of
codfish than to see the fail
ure of the Force bill, and his
associates to come to the
rescue. Mr. Harrison favors
the? Election bill, and evry
since his election he has bit
terly hated Senator Q.niy on
account of the patronizing
matter with which he treated
his highness; therefore if he
did as he would like to he
would throw the weight of
his influence, w hich isn't very
heavy after all,, against Mr.
Quay; but he hesitates, be
cause he fears that Mr. Quay
may succeed in having his
resolution shelving t lie Force
bill and appointing Aug. 30,
as a day for takinga vote on
the tariff bill adopted by the
Senate.
Can Mr. Quay get his reso
lutions passed? To whatex
tent will the democrats sup
port it? It now looks as if
the first quest ion might be
answered in the affirmative,
and that the democrats in a
body will support the Quay
resolution; not because they
endorse it but because they
recognize in it a weapon to
whack more than half the re-

publicans that iliey annouiie!
ed tlieir intention to ileleat
certain clauses of the tariff
bill.. As soon as the Me-1
e;raph couid notify theseiiieu
ami special traiiiscoiild brine
them, a delegation was be-
lore the Senate Finance com-
mittee demanding, not
li ter
asking, what these
mors' meant. The republi
can members- of (hat commit
tee humbly informed them
that their interests should
be taken care of as had been
promised them when they
made their campaign contri
butions, and these robbers
of the toiling millions leturn
ed whence they came.
Representative Raker, of
New York wno enjoys theno
toriety of being the only man
who ever had a resolution re
turned to him bv a .vote of
the House, because of its bad
taste, made an ass of him
self again by offering a reso
lution reflecting upon Mr.
Milks because of his making
tariff reform speeches. It
was too much even for Speak
er Reed, and hocertainly isn't
over squeamish about such
things. Mr. Raker was ask
ed to withdraw the resolu
tion but he refused, insisting
upon having it printed in the
Record. The Speaker then
quietly ingored Mr. .'aker,
and the House proceeded to
business and he didn't get
his resolution printed.
Public opinion is a groit
lever. Secretary Wiudom
has decided that the juices
Ijiaid by the government for
silver bullion shall be made
public. They never should
have been hid.
The republicans don't do
much talking these days
about a Congressional re-apportionment
this year.
Cause why; the Census shows
that the South will gain in
stead of lose Congressmen.
Few weeks past Superinten
dent Porter has worked his
force night and day to get
the count, completed in order
that the re-apportionment
might be made; but the re
sult has not been just what
anticipated, and re-apportionment
will be made. The
population of the country is
in round numbers 04,000,000
Recognizing the fact that,
the Congressional campaign
this year was to be run on
"call" and "boodle". Assis-

The principal conditions of
a tornado are an unstable
state of the atmosphere,
steep vertical gradients of
temperature, and an initial
iryratory motion. The execs
sively heated, saturated low
er strata, burst up through
the upper , over small areas',
moisture is condensed into
mist and rain, and the whirl
ing motion, which is always
from right to left, produces
the characteristic funnel
shaped cloud, Those condi
tions prevail in the south
east quadrant of an an a of
low barometer, about two
hundred miles from the cen
tre. Tornadoes move from
south west to north east,
with an average velocity of
80 miles an hour, over an av
ei-ae-o ; in tl 1 of .'UK) cards wide
v i
and 25 miles long, l errel
calculates that the velocity
of the nssending currents
within the funnel must often
exceed 200 miles, which ex
plains its tremendous dest rue
tive power.
The region most favorable
for tornadoes is the Missis
sippi Valley. North Caroli
na ranks tenth as a tornado
State, only S3 having been
recorded from 182G to 18!).
They occur most frequently
in April, May and June, dur
ing the warmest part of the
afternoon. The most de
structive was the Richmond
and Harnett county tornado
of February ZUth, 18St,
which killed 18 people andnot far distant when the
destroyed OO buildings. Uur
farmers have little to fe;irjOI1 Hat.-iuga's fertile soil, in
from these unwelcome visi- j Hearch of fresh pastures and
tors, as they are to rare in j hs n. voice will echo
Aortn t arouna to cause;

A beautiful mail and baggage

and the paint barely dry tip

a fine appearance as they
moved off down the beauti

casionally disappearing as
if they were burrowing them
selves under 1 lie hills, but
presently passing out again
in full view of our eager gazo.

a few minutes. The puffing

proud, and justly so, out of

stopped the moment that it
was clear of the engine. I

And remember my son, you
have to work. Whether yotl
j jJ;
indie
a tuck or a pen, a
wheel barrow or a set of
books, digging ditches or ed
it ing a paper, ringing an auc
tion bell or writing funny
things, you must work. If
you look around my son,
you will see the men who are
most able to live the rest of
their days without work are
the men who work the hard
est. Don't be afraid of kill
ing yourself with overwork.
It is beyond your powei to
do that on the sunny side ot
j thirty
Fliev die sometimes,
but its because they quit
work at 0 p. m. and dontget
home until 2 a. m. Its the
interval that kills, my son.
The work gives you an appe
tite for your meals, it lends
solidity to your slumbers, it
gives you a perfect and grate
v..i :.. 1 : r ., 1 1 : .1 ..
even; it simply speaks ot
them as old So-and-so's boys.
Nobody likes them; the
great busy world does not
know that they are there.
So find out what you want
to be and do, my sou, and
take off your coat and make
a dust in the world. The
busier you are, the less devil
try you will be apt to get in
fo, the sweeter will be your
, ! Sleep, t lie blMgll td' aild Imp
