-' JSpecial Washington Letter. ' -
For the jbenefit of all whom it may
concern 'and there are several of them
it may be -well to suggest that jubila
tions over the political demise of Wil
liam , Jennings Bryan are premature
and th.at some who are engaged in that
harmless but malicious diversion may
live to rue it. He is not dead political
ly and won't be -till he is dead physically,-
an event which in the natural
course of things lies in the distant fu
ture. These too previous jubilators
would do well to read "Ivanhoe," par
ticularly that portion telling the won
drous story- as to' hop Athelstone sud
denly came to life after being laid out
on the cooling board for three days and
dressed in the cerements, of the grave,
to the utter amazement of those who
were "holding a wake over him. Bryan
received a hard jolt in 1S06 and a hard
er cue in 1900, but he was not nearly
so hard hit as was Athelstone. He has
a vast deal of life in him, as sundry
persons 1 "are liable to discover,' very
much to their sorrow.
I have not seen Bryan since the mel
ancholy days of November and have
had no private tip from him as to his
plans or ambitions. I am not posing.as
a. Wafwiqb, but I like a fair fighKand
never like to see a "man jumped" on toe
promiscuously when he is clown. Then
there Is always this danger imminent
to the jumpers on the fellow who is
down today may ri'se fomorrow. Then
what? And iUS this "what" that I am
suggestingyto the jubilating jumpers
on of Bryan. He is considerable of a
jumper himself, and when he gets into
the jumping humor he may not wear
pumps. 'or felt slippers, but hobnailed
"shoesT" which- may somewhat disfigure
the. glowing and rubicund countenances
of the jubilating jumpers on aforesaid,
and. he will have much encouragement
in his i jumping on, for he is the bien
aime (tlie well beiovea) or millions.
He may never' be president, may not
even receive another nomination, may
not want it. I am dot arguing that or
prognosticating about it. I am, as a
sort of amicus curia?, suggesting in a
friendly way that jumping on him may
not prove to be a safe and hilarious
performance. Au contraire, as the
French would say, it is full of hazards.

It is appalling to think of the amount of space
the rural editor wastes in 'thanking bis member
of .congrresB for useless public documents.
The word "amazing" is used advis
edly when the general opinion of The
Post on current matters is taken into
consideration. For Instance, The Con
gessional Record, at which so much
funis poked, is padded too much. There
is precious Jittle sense in publishing
any large- number of the president's
messages, as they-are published in near
ly all the newspapers in the country;,
but, 'as a rule, public documents are
valuable provided they can be put In
the right hands. I will give" one or
two of my own experiences in this re
gard, which, I will undertake to say,
are by no means exceptional except in
the fact that the district which I'have
the honor to represent is one of the
richest ' agricultural districts in the
United. States. " v
-Before going to congress I had never
read an agricultural report in my life,
and I had seen so mucbfun poked at
them in the newspapers that I didn't
suppose any one else read them to any
great extent- Consequently when I was
notified that my first quota was ready
for distribution I sent them out indis
criminately to the first 994 .farmers 1
could think of, not even keeping one for
myself. A few weeks after that I be
gan to get requests for them. Not hav
ing any, I bought copies at the second
hand bookstores to supply the requests.
This kept up until I paid for some 200
that year simply because I had enter
lalned as poor an opinion of agricul
tural reports in particular as The Tost
has for pulv documents in general.
This experience surprised me vso that
L: read the book myself and found it
very interesting even to a man who
hadn't farmed any ' for twenty odd
years. The result was that after that 1
distributed these books systematically,
reserving 2G0 or 300 copies to send to
those who especially requested them.
'Since that I have read each report as it
came out carefully if not religiously
and regard them as at least equal in

A Rocky Road to Travel.
Mr. Babcock of Wisconsin, chairman
of the Republican congressional cam
paign committee, is having a decidedly
rocky road to" travel in his herculean
effort to squelch the trusts. Any Re
publican will have who undertakes
any such job, as that. The Hon. Sere
no E. Payne, chairman of the commit
tee on ways and means. Jumps on to
poor Babcock with both feet, for which
performance The American Economist,
organ of the trusts, - raises Citizen
Payne to the rank of general. If he
succeeds In knocking Babcock and oth
er tariff tinkers out. The Economist
will' probably make him a marshal of
the empire. It may even make a-
prince of h"im. The Economist not only"
makes a general out of Sir. Payne, but
it also "larrups Babcock, and ; after
thrusting at him in every way it
knows how itself it quotes several
choice editorials from other organs of
the freebooters. The Philadelphia
Press, w-hieh is quoted approvingly by
The Economist, says Inter alia : "
Numerous bills, were introduced in the last con
gress by Democrats to abolish or reduce the du
ties on various articles for the alleged purpose, of
striking at "trusts.' Mr. Babcock never had a
kind word to say for such measures. As chairman
of the Republican congressional committee he cir
culated extensively in the last canvass speeches
of his own telling of the great strides this coun
try had made as a result of the protective tariff.
i,ate in tne session he was appointed to a vacancy
on . the" ways and means committee and was much
disappointed because his efforts to get a larger re
duction made in the internal revenue tax on beer
failed. Soon afterward he introduced his bill to
put iron and sEeel products on tbe free list, going
much further than any Democrat had gone in
that direction, . and he has followed that up with
newspaper interviews threatening to go still fur
ther in the game direction in the next, congress
and.deelaring that he "will succeed."
The first two sentences of this quota
tion, at least, contain "a great truth
which I stated in these letters as early
as February. By a very little effort in
the last congress Mr. Babcock could have
got his bills through the house or two
or three similar bills that' I introduced
and some Introduced' by James D.
Richardson, the Eemocratic leader.
air. Kichardsoivor myself or any other
Democrat trying to down the trusts
would bffve cheerfully waived all
claims': and honors of authorship of
arj.tlfrustr,measures in. favor of Brother
Babcock if he had shied his castor In
to the ring early enough In the action.
It would only-have taken seven Re
publicans voting with the Democrats
to have carried the measure in the-Fif
ty-sixth congress. In the Fifty-seventh
it will take at least 25, as the" Repub
licans have a majority of 50, so that
it somewhat appears that Mr. Babcock
lost the golden opportunity to be . of
service to his country and his kind, but
if he will persevere In "tbe good work
I think I can promise him the support
of the entire Democratic contingent In
the bouse. There Is.no sort-of pros;
pect that the trusts will ever let loose
of anything until they are ' choked
loose, and the antitrust, men In con
gress are willing that Mr. Babcock or
any one else shall have the credit pro
vided that any ' good can be accom
plished, but be may expect the solid
opposition of all the high tariff organs
and all the publications, large and
small, supported by. the trusts. To
shut them off from the public crib will
be no holiday performance,
Pettigrew to the Pore.
lhe other day the newspapers re
ported that ex-Senator Richard Frank
lin Pettfgrew of South Dakota had just
cleared up a quarter of a million In
Wall street. While not exactly placln,
my "O..K." on Wall street speculations
in general, still it gives me a thrill of
pleasure to hear-of the success of the
doughty ex-senator. Hard upon the
heels of this interesting item comes the
news, through the Washington Post,
past master in the breezy recording of
political gossip, that Mrr Pettigrew will
be a candidate for the curule chair now
occupied by Senator Kyle. The term
of tbe latter expires In March, 1903.
The Post gives as authority no less a
person than Senator Kyle himself, who
freely acknowledges that Pettigrew
will - make him hustle for his votes.
Kyle ought to know, .
The case of Senator Kyle Is the un
usual one of a preacher succeeding In
politics. ; He was elected as a Populist
and .went! over to the Republicans.
Pettigrew was elected as a Republican
and had such a change of heart that he
Is now in full' and welcome fellowship
in the Democratic camp. They ex
changed places gracefully. All who
know'Mr: Pettigrew save and except

sting of many a Parthian arrow in the

Great Wool Palling.
At last Senator John L. McLaurln,
Junior senator from South Carolina,
has succeeded by his strange political
capers in stirring up- the wratn or lis
senior to wit, Hon Benjamin R. Till

Tillman,1 to tlr uu whom u to r

as several men before Mcliurin have
found to their sorrow. Personally I
regret Senator McLanrin'a course, for
he is a most amiable and companion
able gentleman, with whom I served
in the house and with whom I was and
am on a most friendly footing. For
Senator Tillman I entertain both af
fection and admiration affection for
hjm because ofhis kind heart; admira
tion for his splendid talents and rug
ged honesty. It will require over
whelming evidence to convince me
that Tillman Is not right In this fight.
.and, as he Is a fighter from Bitter
Creek, the battle now on between him
and ; McLaurln means the extermina
tion of one or the other. It will be
picturesque and to the death, and the
white people of South Carolina will
rally round the man with the pitch
fork, for In their Judgments Republic

awful and - sickening saturnalia of

called, as a movement to establish Re
publican supremacy, for that's what It
means, wnetner senator McLanrln s
wishes or not The case of -General

that beyond all controversy. When he
began his movement In Virginia, he had
no more idea, of Joining the Repub

from the bottom of my heart that be

Disintegration.
Evidences multiply that there is to be
a war among the Republicans them
selves on the tariff question. For some
years the Hon. John A. Kasson of Io
wa, ex-congressman, ex-minister pleni
potentiary and ex several other things?.
has had a comfortable berth in the
treasury department formulating reci
procity, treaties. Now he has thrown
up his job, or at least renounced his
salary, which Is the same thing, be
cause the senate refused to ratify hla
treaties. Of course he ought to have a
medal' for renouncing his salary and
perhaps a monument, neither of which
he will ever get. Everybody who
knows anything understands that reci
procity is simply free trade in spots,
the Invention of the lion. James Gil
lespie Blaine, who was so indignant at
the monstrosities In the McKlnley bill
as it originally passed the house that
he beat to pieces a fine plug bat on the
marble top of one of the tables in a
committee room In the senate wing of
the capltol. ne forced McKinley and
others to adopt the reciprocity Idea as
a sort of tub to the free trade whale.
ThelDingley bill also contains provi
sions for reciprocity. In commenting
on Mr.'Kasson's statement the "Wash
ington Post, high tariff organ, says:
A statement attributed to Hon. John A. Kasson,
"tpeeial commissioner plenipotentiary under tbe
tariff act, bat been passing around In h news
papers with some fluency of late statement to
the effect that he will hereafter refuse the salary
attached to the office and turn it into the treas
ury. Of the various comments provoked by" this
utterance we have nothing to say. jinleaa, perhapa,
we may be permitted tbe suggestion that persons
who cannot understand such an act as Mr. Ka-aoa
proposes (o himself must be sadly lacking tit One
feeling. Our concern, however, is with Mr. Emoa
himself snd with the circumstances which bare
Induced him to adopt the cour -already men
tioned. " : - - -- - '
It is hardly necessary to say that Tbe Post has
found nothing to applaud in tbe policy of which
Mr. Kasson is the official representative. We do
not believe that it is either wise or lawful to set
up in the state department a subordinate buret a
whose chief shall have authority to tinker with
acta of congress intended to create the public rev
enue. This power is expressly lodged In congress
by "the terms of the constitution and indeed la
confided to tbe house so far as concerns tbe in
itiative. The "special commissioner plcnipotea
tiary therefore is practically defiant of tbe
constitution since the initiative ts transferred to
s purely executive bureau and the confirming
power is reposed in the senate. Thus treaties
amounting to tariff taws can be put In force with
out the smallest reference to the house of repre
sentatives, which, according to the constitute; a.
Is responsible for all revenue legislation. We have
never seen our way clear to approval of an ar-
rangemont which is not only grottsrpjt and rlOScuV
loua, but, in our opinion, unconstitutional as well.
