Upon this policy the Democratic members of the committee decided to act as a unit. It was the -Alliance and not Mr. Springer that originated the idea of specific reform. At Indianapoiis be fore; Congress net, the Alliance de clared in fuvor of attacking the tariff in detail, of taking a bull's eye shot and kill ng completely one tax enor rnity it a time. It passed the cotton resolution asking Congress to take all tax whatever off of all cotton manufactured goods. Thid done and no party would ever dare to put the tax back, because the difference would be so great that everybody could sen and feel it. Yes, Mr. Springer has taken the Alliance idea of specific reform, but watch him and see if he ever attempts to take the tax off of cotton goods. But we have got members in Congress who should move on this li..e. MR.

There are not a smsll number of Democrat-; in Congress w ho also wanted war and who would have hacked up Harrison, right or wrong, if Chili l ad not acceded to all his pr?remptory demands. Why did they want war? Those Con gressmen who are opposed to giying the people of the country the relief they demand, wanted some excase not to do it. They wanted to call the attention of the people away fro; the oppressions which they sa fer. They aro mad-they are disgusted with little'. Chili because she would not give them a chanc to get up a war v.hoor::y. Hon. B. F. Grady, member of Coagress from the Third Congres sional district of North Carolina, has introduced a joint resolution which hi submitted to Congress yesterday. It recites that by the natural andjegit innate expansion of the scope of Federal legislation, as well as by the assumption of powers of doubtful constitutionality, the number of persons whose salaries and wages are paid out of the peo ple's treasury has become alarmingly yreatand threatens to become gi eater The resolution continues: 'hind whereas the salaries and wages of these persons are in many Instances exhorbitantly large as com pared to the salaries and wages re ceived by those who perform like services under some if not all of our State governments, and even more glaringly unjust as compared to the annual fruits of the labors of the toiling millions of our countrymen wiio are compelled by law to pay tribute to the protected and other wise favcied classes as well as to bear more than their just share of the burden of taxation; and whereas our free institutions are greatly jeopardized by the growing tendency of the political party in power at any time to perpetuate its control of j Federal legislation by the corrupt disposal of patronage and by the levying of blackmail on its benefici aries to be employed in bribing the people and debasing the electoral franchise; therefore be it "Resolved, That the Speaker ap point a committee of fifteen mem beis to inquire into the propriety and justice of a rednction and read justment of salaries and wages paid out of the people's treasury and re port by bill orx)therwise." So far, so good. But would like to make one amendment to Mr. Grady's resolution. That is, that the' Con gressmen themselves have their salaries paid in cotton and corn, or still better, that the price that corn, cotton and wheat were selling at when the salaries of Congressmen wer lixud at $5,000, be figured up and compared with the average price of the three commodities to day, and that their salaries be re duced in proportion. . If this were made a law it would not be long before nearly every Congressman would be trying to do something to relieve the edpressea condition of agriculture. D1BR THE LION'S PI?. BY HAMLIN GARLAND.

He's agreed t' hire it ploughed, an' you can earn a hun dred dollars ploughin' an' y' c'n git the seed o' me, an' pay me back when y' can.

I never saw " shouted Haskins in his neighbor's ear. Council moved about ureasily in his seat, and stopped his stammer ing gratitude by saying : "Hold on, now; don't make such a fuss over a little thing. W hen I see a man down, an' things all on top of 'm, I jest like t' kick em off an' help 'm up. That's the kind ot religion 1 got, an' it's about the only kind." They rode the rest of the way home an silence. And when the red light of the lamp shone out into the darkness ot the cold and windy night, and he thougbt of the refuge for his children and wile, Haskins could have put his arm around the neck of his burly companion and squeezed him liue a lover ; but he contented himself with saying: "Steve Council, you'll git y'r pay Jo'r this some day." "Don't .ant any pay. My reli Kioo ain't run on such business prin ciples." The wind was growing colder, and the ground was covered with -a white frost, as they turned into the gate of the Council farm, and the children came rushing out, snoutin h be t'-dav it it hadn't oca i'r Co tin-! i c cdi aeal his wife."
