When Senator E;iulkiier. in ! response t' a char n tcristie Islnrof litJlfBi:iy",'liaiid:T,8 J about the tariff bill b ii! t the White Il(use rail: I iviil say to tb .Senator frotn New Hruapshire that al though the tariff bill in not at the White House now, it will be there very soon to re ceive the signature of the President," there was a deaf ening round of applause from the crowded galleries of h Seriate which showed in a maimer not to be mistaken the trend of public tenthiient, and which should not have been lost upon certain Demo cratic Senators whose sec tions have brought the tariff bill to the nust critical stare of its existante. It is now, according to the idas of some of the best Democrats in Confess, no longer a question of what soit of tar iff bill we shall get, but whether we shall get any tar iff bill at all. I will not i-opor, the scan dalous cb icges of bad faith made by Democrats against Democrats i n connection with the failure of the confer ees to reach an agreement, but if tie1 attempts to defeat all tariff legislation, now be ing either directly made by Democrats or indirectly as sisted by them, shall succeed these charges will he shouted from the housesteps in every section of the country until they become so f imiliar that certain men will find it diffi cult to show themselves upon the most lonely country road without being pointed out as traitors to their party. It is impossible for the present crisis to continue much long er. The tariff bib1 will either no passed or permanently hung up this week. Had the action taken dur ing the past week by theGov emors of Maryland and Vir ginia, in breaking up the camps of t h e Cox ey ires tramps in their respective states, been taken by Gov. McKinley last March the fool movement would never have been started. The House decisively put itself on record as favoring the appropria tion of $200,000 to aid the the exposition at Atlanta Gra., and it is now certain that the appropriation will get through all right. It pleased theSoutheruersin the House to find Keprntu tive Pence, of Colorado, and Everett, ot Massachusetts, among the most earnest ad vocated then ppropiiat ion. ' In addition to being a coin inon nuisance, Sena tor Chan dler, ot Xew Hampshire, will get. himself widely known as a fool if he introduces a few more resolutions tike the one proposing that the Senate committee on Elections and Privileges should investigate the recent Alabama State election, so as to ascertain whether it was fuM, free, fair and honest, and whether . resulted in the choice of a legislature entitled to elect a U. S. Senator. It is general ly admitted that the new Al abama law, under which the Mi Tire election was h'l !,T" 07TP J'TP T- ; nak- fraud very difficult, i w I H t H Ut.il;l.UnM I " lot absolutely impossible,! 10 FL'1 FGHl':'li m in and that there is nu strong cr reason for the cry of 'fraud" raised by the Kolb- lites than a desire to let down easy the eastern Republicans who contributed th ir money to t lie c.i 111 1 i i ! n friiio. lin t ven "that, tl.e elec ! tion had been f-dl of fraud asCbandler is of "gull.'" there would Ktill be nr authority for an investigation by a committee of the Unit e d States Senate. It was a State election and theSeuate has no more to do with it than with an election for uieinners or 1 ai iiamyiic in r 11 1- , any part of Great Br itain. The House very properly refused to agree to the Sen ate amendment to the Sun dry Civil approprinti ui bill, providing that !f L'oO.000 be : appropriated lor the pur chase of what is known as the Mabone lot," owned by e.v-Senator Mabone, of Va., .n a site for n new Govern ment Printing OihVc. There are two good and sufiiciont reasons for the action of the House the Mabone lot is un suited for a site ana the price asked is excessive. Public Printer Benedict is out in another appeal to Con gress insisting that some thing bo none towards lessen ing the dangers which sur round the iJOOO employes of the Government Printing Of fice before adjournment. He reminds Congiess that even if he troublesome ques tion of the selection of a site for the new (L P. 0.,were set tled at this session; which it isn't likely to be, it would re quire four or five years to build a new office, whihf there is urgent necessity for some immediate relief. He sug gests that this may be. had by purchasing grourul and erecting a building along side of the present office that will meet the requirements until the entire new building is put up, which must be in the near future. The Senators nreglad that the Chinese treaty, which! lias been before the Senate so long, has at last been dis posed of. There has been lit tle doubt at any time of w hat the final result would be. Still it is a satisfaction to the Democratic administra tion and theSenators that it has been officially settled. Wilkesboio Chronicle: From all reports, Col.

Resolved 5th, That while we are opposed to the slight est qualification, in favor of the federal government, of the repeal of the 10 per cent tax on State bank issues, we nevertheless advocate as a matte'- ot State policy such regulation and restriction of the issues of the banks char tered by North Carolina as will secure a sound currency. Resolved 0th, That we ad mire the courage and lofty patriotism of the President, and that we most heartily commend his prompt and ef fective action under the law for the suppression of the al ien anarchists to disturb, by force and violence, the true relations of labor and capi tal; his sturdy efforts to se cure the enactment of tariff reform as called lor in t h e party platform; his piompt approval of the bill repealing the Federal election law; the notable reduction of the ex penses of government under his administration, and the freedom from scandal which has been such a marked fea turf of his return to the head of affairs. We point with pride to the record of the Democratic par ty in North Carolina and en dorse the present State ad ministration.

The total expendi tures in the year just dosed were $300,593,359, this amount being made up from the following items: Pen sions, $141,177,281; civil and miscellaneous, $101, 403, 4."5; war. $54,357,000; navy, $31,527,195; Indians, $10',2SO,410; interest, $27, 811,405.
