A rumor was current on the street today that Dr. W. H, Tay lor, formerly of this city, Lad been shot and killed. The rumor grew out of a dispatch from Weldon 111., where a doctor by the same name was shot and killed by a man whose divorce from his wife had been caused by the man killed. His name was Dr. W. H. Taylor and he used to live in Indiana. The similarity of names and residence evidently caused the rumor. Dr. W. H. Taylor who used to live here now resides in Sullivan this

Tlie Snow.

The heavy snow that fell yesterday brought joy to some hearts and sorrow to others. The small boy was delighted of course. To him I it brought visions of coasting and I kindred amusements to the young lady fortunate enough to have a sweetheart it meant sleigh rides; to the young man with a slim bank account and a best girl lie is always desirious of pleasing it meant a big liyery bill; to the laborer who depends upon odd jobs for a living it meant money for a New Year’s dinner that would outshine that he had for Christmas; to all it looked very much as though the holiday season would end in the kind of weather we all like to see at this season of the year and that the New Year’s cards with their dainty snow scenes would be appropriate even if those for Christmas

were not.

Washington, Dec. JO, 1895. There was i, time when many republicans who could not agree with what he did respected Mr. Cleveland because they believed him to be conscientious and straightforward. That time has passed. Mr. Cleveland lias shown himself to bo a trickster. And in nothing lias be shown it plainer than in that hysterical message appealing to congress for financial aid. Although that appeal was made when congress was ready to adjourn for the holiday recess, many members having started for home, the republican majority at once gave up the idea of a recess and worked even on Christmas day to respond to the appeal, by preparing a laritf bill, not exclusively f r protection but to increase the revenues of the country to the extent of $40,000,001), and a bill authorizing the sale of J per cent coin bonds to maintain the gold reserve aud of the issuing of J per cent treasury certificates to meet any immediate deficit. These bills have been passed by tlie House, although not a few republican members voted reluctantly for tlie bond bill, rather than have it said that tlie republican House had refused to aid the president, and forty-seven of them voted against it anyway. It is now clear that Mr. Cleveland did not want the aid of Congress. That was plainly shown when he. through Secretary Carlisle, declared that tlie House bond bill would not help tlie administration unless “coin” was struck out and “gold” was substituted therefor. That, was asking an impossibility, for Mr. Cleveland knew perfectly well that the House was stretching things to agree to a bond bill at all, and that a bill for goi.l bonds could not get one hundred votes, let alone pass, lint that isn’t all It is now announced that Mr. Cleveland will not wait to see whether •he senate will pass the House hills, but will proceed to make another issue of bonds, and that it will be made large enough to carry him through tlie remainder of his administration, aud they arc going to that fame old syndicate, although a pretense is to be made of giving the public an opportunity to

subscribe for them.

The five reasons whiclt Representative Henderson, of iowa, gave for supporting the bond bill that passed tlie House, are weighty. First, the bill does not require a bond issue; only authorizes it if necessary; second, the bonds if issued would bear a lower rate of interest than those issued by rhe administration, and those it is now arranging to issue under the old liw: third, it A'Oinpels tlie administration to give our own citizens a chance to buy any bonds issued before ottering them to foreign bankers; fourth, it does not retire tlie greenbacks, hut empowers the secretary oi tlie treasury to keep tliem out of the possession of speculators when necessary; fifth, it prevents the ailir.imstrui ion selling bonds to meet deficicncies in the revenues, as it. ha- done. This bond bill is a long ways front representing wiiac republicans believe ought to be done, but it does represent what can become a law, if the senate will consent, and that is the principal reason for it- having been put through the House. The administration already has authority. If those bonds could he issued under the House hid many millions of dollars iu interest would be saved. That’s the long and short of it: it Isn’t a question of principle so much

as of dollars and cents.

I’lie House committee on Fongn Affairs will report a resolution asking the president for information concerning tlie alleged utterances of Ambassador Bayard in public speeches. When that information is forthcoming, if Mr. Bayard has been correctly reported, he will hear from tlie House, aud it will not lie a commendatory message, either. The same committee •• ill ask for all the papers in tlie Waller case. it sounds odd to hear men discussing the probability of half of tlie electoral yotes of Texas being cast for the republican preside itial ticket next year, but men who know the situation in the state are doing that very thing. Mr. Frank Welch, a Texan who is now in Washington, sail: ‘There is hardly any doubt of a successful combine between the Texas republican:) and pepttlists, and their combined forces ought to be able to knock out the democrats, as the picscnt governor was only elected by a pliiiality. It ha- tx-cn agreed that the populists shall name tin* entire state ticket and Unit, the presidential ci ctors and representatives in congress shall be equally divided with the republicans.” The Hou-e having done a remarkable week's w ork wil’. now proceed to take it- rece-s, it being understood that it will o ily meet once more, jusr to eomi l\ with the law wnich says that neither branch of congress-hall adjourn for more than three days without the consent of the other, before next Monti iv, and no quorum will be needed at that met ting as nothing is to lie done. 'I he senate tuts been taking things easy, hid it can get down to work Hus week, if il so desires, as the reorganization of committees has been completed.
