THE UATTEB OF TUX PROPOSED CfLOBJtD
ISDtiBTBIAL EXPOSITION OTHEB
: KEW8.
By Telegraph to the News and Obserrer
Washington, July 28. Senate.
The Senate joint resolution for the
ascertainment of the amount due lo
the State of South Carolina for the
rent ct the Citadel Academy was
taken from the calendar and passed.
Mr. Palmer gave notice that on
Tuesday next he would call up the
Senate bill to encourage the hold
ing of a National Industrial Exposi
tion of the arts, mechanics and pro
ducts of the colored race throughout
the United States in 1888 and 1880.
The Senate then resumed consid
eration of the sundry civil appropria-
i t -1 . 1 1 i ' ,
non out, we penaiog question oeing
on the paragraph relating to the new
library building in Washington.
Mr. Allison, In response to a ques
tion by Mr. Plumb, stated that the
committee on appropriations had had
great difficulty with the subjeci. The
original plan had contemplated the
completion of the entire building,
which would cover an entire square.
He could not give a reasonable esti
mate of the cost, nor had he discov
ered anybody who could. He had no
docbt, however, that the cost would
be at least ten million dollars. The
portion of the building which the
committee's amendment proposed
would be (according to Mr- Spoffbrd)
ample for the purposes of a library
for fifteen or twenty years. It would
cost between four and five million
dollars. Of course it could be built
for two and a half or three million
dollars, depending on the .materials
used.
After a very brief discussion the
amendment was agreed to wi'hout
division. It strikes out .the House
provision for suspension of work and
for .new designs and general specifica
tions for the fbuilding, and inserts in
lien of it a provision appropriating
one million dollars for the construc
tion of the western front of the build
ing under the direction and super
vision of the chief of engineers of the
army, and the abolition of all con
tracts made for the construction of
the building the loss and damage
under the same to be adjusted and
paid by the secretary of the interior.
Among other amendments reported
by the committee on appropriations
and agreed to was one inserting an
item of S'J,300 to pay the State of
Florida the expenses of taking the
State census of 1880. The consider
ation of the bill was interrupted end
Mr. Allison reported and the Senate
passed the House joint resolution
continuing the temporary provision
for the expense of the Government.
ine sundry civil bill was strain
taken up and a great number of com
mittee amendments were agreed to,
generally without debate, and the
majority of them involving small
amounts. The last amendment to be
acted on was the insertion of an item
of $50,000 to be paid the widow of
the late Spencer 1 . Baird for his ser
vices and expenses as fish commis
sioner fiom 1871 to 1887.
It provoked considerable oddosn
tion from Messrs. Reagan, Berry,
Harris and George and was advo
cated by Messrs. Dawes, i Gorman,
Beck, Stewart and CalL It was
finally agreed to 29 to 11 after be
ing modified so as to make the amount
include the rent of I rooms in Mr.
Baird's house used for office purposes.
This disposed of all the amendments
reported by the committee on appropr
iations.but Mr, Allison said he would
have some three or four amendments
to offer Monday. The bill then went
over. Adjourned.
1 aocsx.r
The Senate bill for the erection of
a publio building at Allentown, Pa.,
having been laid Ibef ore the House,
Ur. Bowden, of Pennsylvania, asked
unanimous consent for its immediate
consideration, but a demand for the
regular order made by Mr. Hender
son, of .North ; Carolina, operated as
an objection and the bill will perma
nently remain upon the Speaker's
table for the present. The floor was
then accorded to the committee on
printing.! . ,
Bills were passed for the printing
of a great number of publio docu
ments . Among them 17,000 copies
of the report of the chief of the bu
reau of statistics on the subject of
wool and woolens, 2Q,ooo copies of
the special report of the Agricultural
Department on insects affecting the
orange and 100,000 copies of the
comparative compilation of the exist
ing tariU law with the amendments
proposed by the Mills bill.
The House then proceeded to the
further consideration of the bill pro
viding for the erection of postoffice
buildings, but the morning hour ex
pired without action being reached.
On-motion of Mr. Rowland, of
North Carolina, the Senate bill was
paseed for the erection of a publio
building at Charlotte, N. C, with an
amendment reducing the cost from
55175,000 to $85,0U0.
Tho Hduse then went into commit
tee of thej whole on the general ap
propriation bills, and a clash instantly
occurred between the various bills
on the calendar.
The general deficiency bill was the
first one reached and Mr. Sayers, Of
Texas objected to the request made
by Mr. Townshend, of Illinois, that
it be laid aside in the interest of the
army appropriation bill with the Sen
ate amendments, this fact was re
ported to the House, which , after a
vain attempt to secure a quorum, di
rected the committee by a vote of 72
to 61 to consider the deficiency bill
and it was accordingly taken up.
A general debate - on the bill was
begun by Mrl VoorheeB, of Washing
ton Territory, who made a' speech in
advocacy of the admission of that
territorv'sB a State. This started a
Elitieal discussion which took in the
id-grant i policy of both political
parties and the more recent land for
feiture policy of (the administration,
which lasted until 5 o'clock, and did
not recur to the pending bill. At 5
o'clock the committee rose and "the
House adjourned.

Wast a Surplas Means.
Wabbenton, N. G, July 27.
Cor. of the Mews and Observer.
To some a surplus is a thing, to be
proud of. They are at a loss to see
why an overflowing Treasury is a sig
nal of distress, or how it is possible
for a stable, popular government to
have too much money. They view a
surplus as they 'would the fabled
sands of the PactoluB, and if the gold
in the Treasury were magic gold we
might welcome its overflow and ask
no questions ; but as the Treasury
creates no wealth, as every dollar in
it is drawn from the pockets of the
people, it follows that all excess over
and above the just needs of the gov
ernment is the product of unjust tax
ation. The conception of government
funds as so much treasure has long
since faded away with the govern
ment itself as a machine regulating
the affairs of the many for the bene
fit of the few.
In former times money was drawn
totthe Treasury in the shape of exac
tions, benevolences, blackmail, for
eign spoil. The irregular flow of the
stream of tribute made the impound
ing of its infrequent surplus a matter
of necessity, and the strength of the
government was largely measured by
the size of its hoard. The Treasury
is no longer the repository of treas
ure, but the channel for the distribu
tion of the proceeds of taxation. The
strong box is open at both ends.
The State now relies on a compre
hensive system of taxation which will
bring to the public needs a yearly
revenue ; and the ideal revenue is one
so elastic that it rises and falls, not
coincident with that is impossible
but in close relation to those needs.

TINKERING" WITH THK TARIFF.
The Republicans have pretended
great anxiety lest the " tinkering with
the tariff," as they call it, might inter
fere with the business interests of the
country. How comes it that they are
going into this tinkering business on
their own account? The Republi
can members of the Senate pro
pose to frame a tariff bill of their
own, and it is to be a tariff reform
measure. Who would have expected
it? After blaming the Democracy
on every stump for "tinkering
with tne tariff they proceed to
do a little tinkering themselves.
What is : to be said : of such
inconsistency T It is of a piece" with
all Radical action within recent years.
The Republican party frames a plat
form and its representatives in Con-
gres act in direct opposition to its
declarations. The party assumes a
position for the sake of effect and
its members dodge it whenever
the policy of the moment seems to
demand such action. Consistency is
unknown within its ranks. It bends
all its energies to vote-making, at
whatever cost of consistency or prin
ciple. Today it is with one minor
party, tomorrow with another. It is
everything by turns and nothing long.
Just now it is desperate and pre
tends in the Senate to offer the peo
ple a measure of tariff reform, seeing
that such a measure is impera
tively demanded. It thus ac
knowledges, in effect, the justice
of the Democratic position with
respect to tariff revision and re
form but it also takes from its stump
ers all the thunder of the latter with
reference to tariff "tinkering." What
are these stumpers now to do with
out the argument of pretended anx
iety that they have been shrieking
over the country t Who would have
looked for such treatment of them at
the hands of those in their own
household f Who but those who
know the Republican party,its double-
dealing, deceitful and reckless course
in the past, its present desperation
and disregard ol all rules of oonsis
tency and self-respect therein t

The following were chosen to rep
resent the county in the Senatorial
convention, Second district, to be
held in Washington, N. C , August
15th, 1888: -
Delegates Dempsey SprUill, E. G.
Eborn, Alfred Alexander, E'i Snell,
J. A. Chesson, T. S. Tarkinton, B. S.
Lucas, I. T. Rowe, Dr. W. H. Ward,
L. F. Satterthwaite, Charles Latham,
John B. Harrison.
Alternates. I. W. Spruill, Dr. VV.
II. Hardison, H. I Chesson, D. W.
Snell, J. B. Hiltonj. P. R. Johnston,
B. D. Latham, C. L. Pettigrew, D. O.
Brinkley.
Mr. Pettigrew was endorsed as the
choice of the convention for the po
sition of State Senator and the dele
gates were requested to vote for him
in the Washington convention. The
compliment thus tendered Mr. Petti
grew is the more appreciable in that
it was unsought and the nomination
in fact declined bj him, but from the
very insistence of his friends he was
compelled to yield to their wishes
and will, we trust, be hpnored with
the nomination' in the approaching
convention. His intelligence, char
acter and worth make him excel
lently qualified for the position.
Addresses were made by S. B.
Spruill, Thos. S. Armistead, Demp
sey Spruill and C.L. Pettigrew of good
cheer and counsel to the party, and
the convention, deferring the nomi
nation of county officers for the pres
ent, then adjourned. M
