OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
Wasi 'ington, D. C, March 14.
We have had our little blizzard
No. 2, with its cold, wind and snow.
It differed from the other only in de
gree and duration But it has passed
and the weather has opened up a
little like spring. So far March has
been accompanied by little wind,
but as all the things of this world
even up sooner or later, we expect
April to have a considerable lap over
from March. The blizzard off the
North Carolina coast was more
severe than the first one, and fish
and oyster vessels which were frozen
up there report that fish were frozen
by millions, and the inhabitants of
the coast were securing and preserv
ing them. It is now about time for
the annual visit of fish to these
waters for the purpose of spawning
and propagating, and naturally they
must haye suffered in large numbers.
The city is very quiet since the ad
journment of Congress. Few mem
bers remained after Sunday, and the
average Congressman shakes the
dust of Washington from his feet as
if the city were plague-stricken.
Even the President feels the need of
rest and will leave in a few days for
Thomasville, Ga., where he will be
the guest of Mark Hanna for a week
or two. But the average toiler must
struggle on and look from the dis
comforts of a bitter blizzard to the
coming of the sweltering dog-days,
when he will toss and groan and lie
awake at night on account of the
blistering, suffocating heat that
arises from the concrete streets of
one of the finest cities of the world.
Really there is nothing left for tho
Congressman to do. All the pie has
been given out, the money appropri
ated, and what little is left is being
fought for so fiercely that he is glad
to be away from it. To show the
pressure for places I need only men
tion that under the bill to reorganize
the army there are about 100 second
lieutenants to be appointed by the
President, and there are already
20,000 applications on file and they
are increasing by every mail. Ihere
are tens of thousands of names on
the civil service list, waiting their
term for appointment. Many of these
haye been there for years. They
stand tor first one branch ot the ser
vice and then another, hoping to
land eventually into some place
where Uncle Sam will be the boss
and paymaster. What does spirit
means? Why are the youth and
strength of young manhood strug
gling to leave the occupations of
civil life and get into the Govern
ment? Everyone prefeis, the chances
being equal, to have his own busi
ness and be his own master.
The reason ot it all is very plain,
and is twofold: (1) The closing of
the avenues to agreeable and lucra
tive trades and professions, and (2)
the competition of women in the
avenues of business. The tendency
of all business now is toward centra
lizatiom Men and corporations and
communities unite and control al
branches of trade. The middle man
and the man ot small means is
crowded out. Everything is on a
big scale, run in the closest economy
and with business methods so syste
matized that very small individua
profits amount to millions in the
aggregate. There used to be severa
classes between the manufacturer
and consumer, and all made a Hying
and by equalizing the profits, sup
ported a community and gave em
ployment and subsistence to all. To
dav millions are idle of course the
evolution of machinery has had
something to do with this, but ag
gregation of capital has done by for
the greater part. There are now only
two independent classes in our coun
try. millionaires and laborers. The
millionaires say they will not do so
and-so, or will not pay so-and so
and retire and live on the interest of
their money; the laborer says he wil
not work tor so-and -so and goes on
a strike, and is shot down or starves
The other side (and I do not say this
to get into a controversy over the
woman's rights question) has much
to do with it. A few vears ago a
goo-d. clerk, or bookkeeper, or busi
ness manager or stenographer com
manded from 15 dollars per week, on
up. Today one can hire a woman to
do this work trom $d per week up
Many women are compelled by ne
cessity to enter into competition with
men in business, but they should
have the same pay. Many more
and perhaps the larger part, are
young girls or single women, who
have a home, and are willing to work
for anything they can get, and thi
goes for extra ribbons or amusement
She not only lowers the price o
labor below its worth, but she throws
out of employment the head of some
family, with a wife and children
dependent upon him for support
Then he walks the street for work
while his children cry for bread. Can
a woman thus come in contact with
man in his regular places of employ
ment without thereby losing some of
her delicacy and modesty and be
coming coarser in her nature? it is
as impossible as for snow to fall in
August. We feel in a retrospective
mood, and do not write this with the
expectation that it will in any degree
change the facts.
The contracts are all fixed by Con
gress. Even Joe Wheeler is left out
by the President. The country ex
pected the .President to make him a
Maior-General, His services cer
tainly deserved it, and his qualifica
tions made him peculiarly fitted. Bu
he is on the wrong side of the fence
If there is anything the Republicans
are noted for it is for building up
Republicanism. They make the Navy
and Army and Departments as
strongly Republican as possible and
a. " "V1" .
; P6nd upon, bo while Wheeler was
a good man, and saved the day at
Santiago and all that yet he was a
Democrat and that settled it. Per
haps this may help some people to
see the hollowness of the honeyed
words of the President on his late
Southern trip. He touched the lach
rymose glands of many and caused
them to weep and laugh and shout
and belieye him, but he did not fool
the old stagers. His speech was a
yote-getter and not intended to prac
tice. People of sense took it like
Tosh Billings said about cologue to
be smell of and not swallowed.
The country should congratulate
tself on the specimen of the conduct
of McKinley's pet it has just wit
essed drunken negro desperadoes
shooting from the train into towns
and crowds of school children. And
yet these same brutes reached here
and were fed and bauoueted and
petted and praised, and white speak
ers got up and lauded them to the
kies, and when the negro officer
arose and denied it and praised the
conduct of his men, the love feast
was complete and they wept on each
other's neck. If one half that has
been published about their trip North
rom their muster-oat be true, they
should have been riddled with bullets
and thrown to the vultures. Per
haps Republican history will put this
down as the "glorious home coming
of the black brayes from de war."
It is currently reported that the
President will reappoint Judge
wart and hopes by another session
of Congress to overcome opposition
and have him confirmed, notwith
standing the charges against his
character.
Dr. Talmage has resigned his
charge here, and announces that he
will devote his worK hereatter prins
cipally to religious writing, &c. He
is growing old and does not feel
equal to the work of a pastGr's
charge. He can also give the bibli
cal excuse that he has married him
a rich wife and much needs be
ex-
cused.
Senator James Jv. Jones is ill in
