It war n't a long one) nor was it upon a new subject, Lui shook Up the Senate and drew applause (rom the galleries. Mr. Mason spoke in favor of his resolution directing the com mittee on Rules to report a rule provid ing for tbe closinx of debate, and for th previous question. Be started off by say ing that it was agreed on all sides that the U. 8. Senate was a great body, that being the view particularly of those with in the c;dy and 03 it pay roll; but thai every one knew also that it was the only legislative b iily in existence incapable of doing business, lie expressed the hope that he would be forgiven for these re flection, as he was still in tin kinder garten class, and recognised that he was threshing over old straw, and added that intended to keep at u for the n-xt nx years. He "ecbmd lha' every o knew that while we profess to lie a government by the people, whi'Q we reach ( he high est I'ifly in t'w government there is s rule the minority. He said that as soon as a man eiinwl tin- mate door his energHM dnectrd ' retaining power in Hip ol.lwi . and added 111, mphasis: "I want to Ueliv- r iittssug from (he prop!-- 1 ie lur iiir of powei posseiises :e." i neiUtiim was by vote of Si lit -i- i.r.vi o me committd on Rules to die. A hile there was some disappointmeo among the politicians over the giving o' wo such juicy plums as the First an Second Oi puty Commisfiionera of IV11 turns to men already in the Pensioi Bureau, it was an example of real civi rvice reform and will doubtless mak Commissioner Evans' tssk an easier nro ban it would have been with deputie who were not familiar with the work o! lie offlce. Tbe gentleman promoted wer Mr. Jumes L. Davenport, of New Hamf- shire, who entered the offlce during th GurJi-hi administration, and Capt. L. M iCelluy, of Illinois, who was chief of th 'ertitlcate division during the Hanisoi administration. Senator Perkins, ofCal., is taking ni actiye part In the fight that is bein made to abrogate the Hawaiian treaty The Finance committee has been askr 10 put a clause abrogating it in tl Oingley tariff bill before it is reported and Senator Mills has given notice' of hi intention to move its abrogation in ope) Senate, if tbe committee doesnt provid for it In tbe tariff bill. Three years sg the question of abrogating this treat. waa rnted on by the Senate, the vote tx log 11 for and 57 against abrogation, Ihi it is claimed that circumstances hav changed since then. Under the treat. all the sugar produced in Hawaii come in free if duty. The value has steadil' Increased. In 1893 It was $8,000,000, la year It was 112,000,000. This represent the amount of money wa pay the sugs growers on the Islands. In the new tarii bill sugar is 90 a ton. Aswe remit ths duty in favor of the Hawaiian!, It mean that we present them with a bounty 0 430 a ton on all the surer they product There is no reason why we should mak this discrimination In their favor, Wbll the talue of our purchases from ther has increase! at the rate of $1,000,000 yoar, our exports last year to them wci only $300,000 greater than in 1893. Thl is the nub of the whole matter, so far a our Imports or exports are concerned rhe opponents of abrogatien say that t lo so would lose this government Hm aval station at Pearl Inland Harbor, but when the matter was isat up In tb Senate Scoretary Sherman, thee a mem oer of the body, said: "We have pai and doubly paid for that harbor., W own it now. It Is our possession." Ths would seem to dispose of that part of tb question. , ' r " The executive committee of the Indlar spoils convention, which has been, i Washington for several weeks trying ti work op Congressional interest In h-s Islation providing for the appointment 1 a non-psrtisan monetary commission-, it now bringing the somewhat stereotype petition dodge, to liear upon Indlvldiu Representatives and Senators.
