Cleveland, and he has been

his own wishes, lie does no',
wish to have if said that he
took sides with either C;e

However.no one who is at
all familiar with Pre-ident
Cleveland's public "it tern net s,
not to mention his private
conversations, on th'i tariff
question, can have any donbi
is to which of the two the
original Wilson bill or the
amended Senate bill he pre
fers. There are good reasons
for the belief that, the Demo
crats of the House will stand
up for the original Wilson
bill, and it ran be set down
as certain that the protec
tion aniendaientt of the Sen
ate will never be accepted in
l heir piesent shape. There
is no longer any talk of even
an attempt being made to
have the House agree to all
of the Senate amendments in
bulk. There never w as any
foundation for such talk, be
yond the imaginations of
some people who would like
to see the matter disposed of
in that way.
The tieorgians in Congress

what worked up over the
election 01 a Senator to sue
on i Mr. Walsh When
Speaker Crisp declined the
proffered appoint incut to fill
the unexpired tei 111 of the
late Senator Colquitt, ii was
generally supposed that he
thereuv nerii red what the
boys call ' a lead pipe cinch"'
on t lie full term, although it
was then known that Repre
sentative Turner would prab
ably be a candidate. Several
days, ago, however, Senator
Walsh made a manly an
nouncement of his candidacy.
Speaker Crisp has not nidi
?ated whether he will be a
candidate or not, and one of
hisclosests personal friends
has just, assuied me that
Mr. Crisp has not yet decided
the matter.

for t he bond issue s' orv; that
the administration had not
contemplated any further
isue of bonds and that there
was no reason in anything

there would be any necessity
for the quest ion to bijeonsid

Senator llairis's program
me has so .)ften 'jeea upset
and changed by cirrannst jui
ces over which lie had no eon
trol that he deserves great
credit for not having lost
heart entirely before now. It
is his present intention if the
final vi te on the tariff bill be
r.ot reached on Tuesday to
conip' l the Senate to hold a
session on the Fourth of
July, but, of course, it all de
pends on the vote of the Sen
ate as to whether his iaten
tioii can hr carried out. In
the absence of a unanimous
;iieenrait as to wh.-n th" fi
nal vote shall betaken there
is nothing in the rules of the
Senate to prevent a Senator
getting the floor and speak
iag for the rest ot the week,
if so disposed. Senator Aid
rich, who has been the leader
of the Republicans in thetar
itf figiu, said this morning
that so tar as he knew ta Ke
ptihhean Senator would mal e
another set. speech on the
bill and that lie saw no rea
son whv a vote could not be
reached some tini Tuesday.
No good reason existed that
prevented a vote being rea.di
ed long ago, but we al! know
that it hasn't been reached.

cleverest pun that had ever
been made on his name:
"The administration decided
today to keep its Hatton in

But they do not stop to
look nt the advantages !
the primary. What a iuli
vote it will tiring out! What
union and strength it wnl
give us! Kvery time Bich
,ird Dole, our candiil.ite for
the legislature, is asked who
he is tor for Senator, he will
say, 'i will vote i'oi the m a a
whom a majority of the
l)i moci at.s of my county nay,
as shown by t h-1 pii'nary on
the day of election." This
will avoid much strife and
save thot-nands of votes to
the 'ieket.
But one thing had just, as
well be understood. Should
a small element: in the party
prevent the people having a
chiincL-to express their p re
ferent. I c !l then the candi
dates for the Lrgir-.lnture wili
be suvHy "called out." They
will have to say who they
are for for Senator. How
many ballots will they Vute
for him, or wdl they stick to
him as long as he is in the
Held? Will they pay their
fare to ibdeigh? How do
they stand on the silver ques
tion? Do they take the
Southern view of taat plank
in the Chicaga platform? Did
they approve, of the uncondi
tional repeal of the Sherman
act? And many more such
questions.
As the immortal Vance
said, the party is immortal,
and the people are wit h it.
Let us then trust tb people,
and try not to sti.fla their
will, and a greater victory
ihan we have y t achieved
will await us in Xovembei.

To those overtaken by ad
versity my advice is, be tem
perate, keep in good s.iirils
and do not unil- r any cir
cumstances despair. Be sure
to go to bed early, as a per
son overtaken by misfortune
requires m or) rest than at
any other time. Be sure to
eat solid food ana plenty of
it, ns it is necessary to keep
up strength. Look forward,
and never look back .vard,
and remember the worn! was

of providing you a good liv
ing, which will surel v be ob
