Ta P ; of ml this iinanc.a± m. < m, a. i this-excess of govern mom expenses over receipts. lio’.v > grange it is that so little effort is 'being'made to ies-L«en-bnr nation’s expenses. .As .goon as a good business man finds that his business is not paying expenses, he immediately " begins to practice a closer econf, piny. i\ot so with our managers '.'•at Washington, as was witnessed last week in the passage of the . .urgent deficiency bill. Mr. I'eifer moved to strike out the item allowing mileage to senators la d representatives of the pres-
ent session. He argued that in the present depressed condition of the country it was wrong for senators and representatives to take money to which their right at least is doubtful. Mr. Peffer’s amendment was defeated by a vote of 12 yeas and 41 nays. This bill allows our congressmen mileage for the extra and the present session. At first thought this does not appear wrong for they have had to make two trips from their homes to Washington; had, or will have to travel the road four times. Now this mileage, of course, is intended to cover congressmen’s traveling expenses to and from Washington. They pay three cents per mile on the railroads, those that pay anything at all. and the government pays them 20 cents per mile. Take those members on the Pacific coast and they are allowed mileage for perhaps 3,000 miles, 0,000 miles to and from the national capital. This at 20 cents per mile gives t hem *1,200 mileage for one ses•ion. Allowing mileage for both the extra and the regular session, it will, this year, cost us 02,100 to carry a Pacific congressman to and from Washington. A national law maker on wheels is a pretty expensive luxury these bard times.
We take the following sensible remarks from the American Nonconformist, which should be studied by every sound thinking man, and then turned over in his mind to see if it is not facts: "The Republican papers and leaders insist that all calamities, including the industrial depression and low price of farm products. are due solely to ‘the threat of Democratic free trade.' They won’t admit that it is caused by the government’s wretched financial policy, and j the extravagant waste that has j characterized every branch of j the administration. Financial panics, however, never arise from tears of the future. It is what has happened or what is happening that causes them. It is certain that wo have not free trade now, never have had it and are not going to have it. It is equally certain that we have protective tariffs, always have mu! them and are still going to have them for an indefinite time. How silly then to say our business ruin is caused by fears of free trade. If caused by the tariff at all, it would bo much more logical io say that protection had done the mischief as it has been our-policy for many generations. The party which borrows trouble from the future is as much at fault as the one which lives in the past.” The tariff question was settled again last week, this time it it was in the Chicago election, and the decision given was in favor of Democratic free trade. The Republicans made their fight wholly upon protection and Democratic hard times. They predicted the election of their candidate by 20,000 majority, but the majority was on the other side.

FROM WASHINGTON.
An lulcrcKtins Batch of New* From llic Capitol. From our Correspondent. Washington, Dec. 22, ,93. The administration fared much better on the Hawaiian question in the House this week than in the Senate. In fact the Democrats in the House have upon every opportunity proven themselves to be more loyal to President Cleveland than have the Democratic Senators. It is whispered in inside circles that news will arrive before Congress comes together again that will put an end to the Hawaiian incident, it being understood that the last dispatch sent to Minister Willis instructed him to withdraw the offer he had made to the Queen, if she had not before he received it agreed to accept the proposed terms of her restoration, and to officially inform the provisional government that he had done so. ft ® ® Congressmen who remained here until after the tariff bill was reported to the House supplied themselves with numerous copies of the majority report thereon. for distribution among their constituents, the length of the report precluding its entire publication by the smaller newspapers. The state in which they find public sentiment will have its effect when they return to Washington.
Copies of Secretary Carlisle’s annual reports were also in demand by departing Congressmen. There are several recommendations therein that the opinions of influential constituents will be desired upon, notably that asking for authority to issue -1200,000,000 in bonds. The report makes a pamphlet of G 2 pages., It shows that the financial conditions of the country is unquestionably in immediate need of legislation. 9 C 9 The nomination of Hon. Wayne MacVeagli to be Ambassador to Italy was much better received by the Republicans than by the Democrats. Mr. MacVeagli was all his life a Republican, until just previous to the last presidential election, when he announced his intention to abandon his party and to support Mr. Cleveland, on account of the McKinley tariff law. Mr. MacVeagli was once a Republican partisan of the most radical type, and it wasn’t so long ago, either, ’no having been one of the "visiting statesmen” who went to Louisiana to look out for the interests of Mr. Hayes in the settlement of the Hayes-Tilden dispute. He was Attorney General in the short-lived Garfield cabinet, and shortly after he retired to private life he began to exhibit symtoms of mugwumpcry. His ability is conceded by all, and even if he were not a brother-in-law of Senator Cameron his confirmation would not have been less prompt than it was. He has been a warm personal friend of President Cleveland’s for many years and it is probably to that- friendship that he owes his nomination. ft « e The U. S. Supreme Court adjourned to-day until January 3rd. It is not often that the justice of this court express an opinion upon anything pending before Congress, but several of them have said that they thought the delay in acting upon the nomination of Mr. Hornblower avas unjust, both to the court and to that gentleman. They say he either ought to be confirmed or rejected. The vacancy in the court serves to delay’ its business.
® ® c The action of Congress on the amendment to the urgency appropriation bill, appropriating money to pay the mileage of members both for the extra and regular sessions of Congress, was not creditable. It was done in a manner, too, which implied that those who favored the appropriation were ashamed of it, and all attempts to get a yea and and nay vote on the mileage item were switched off by shrewd parliamentarians. The amount involved isn’t so big as that which made the notorious salary grab, so unpopular a few years ago, but it is none the less a grab. It was charged when the proposition to take a recess from the extra to the regular session was so vehemently opposed that mileage was at the bottom of it, mileage not being allowed for a recess, and it now looks as though the charge was correct. © © ® If the Populist Senators agree with those in the House and Refuse to vote for the new traiff
bill, because it retains protection features, it will materially lessen the chances the measure has—not any to good at the best —to get through the Senate. The Populists in the House have not positively agreed on the program, but they are thinking of offering a free trade measure, based on the old W alker tariff as a substitute for the Wilson tariff bill; not with any expectation of its being passed, but to put themselves on record as opposing the present (McKinley) tariff law as well as that proposed by the Ways and Means committee.
Raising Potatoes.
I’hlludolphia Inquirer. Taking one year with another, potatoes are a profitable crop if one has good land upon which to grow them. Even if the land is not quite what might be desired, a little effort expended in bringing up its condition will be repaid, and it will not take long to get it in good shape for potatoes. Underdraming and clovering are the two methods by which this may be accomplished. If the land is underdrained it will never lie so thoroughly saturated with water as to prevent deep freezing. This will open the subsoil, and the clover roots will reach down for it in the dry time, which always comes in the second year of clover growth. After the second year if the clover is allowed to grow until the middle of May, there will be some green growth to plow under, and if the ground is kept well tilled this will provide mois’ture enough to keep potatoes growing through a pretty severe drought. The rotting of the green clover and of the succulent clover roots increases the supply of water, and the lower roots below the furrows are a ctiannel through which water in the subsoil rises to the surface. • Take care to prepare your land so as to conserve moisture and give good cultivation. and.a profitable potato crop is as easy to produce as anything you can try.
Suspicions Praise.
Cincinnati Kimuii-ei- (Item.) The praise of an enemy, be it a personal, a political or a business competitor, is always ground for suspicion and embarrassment. The unstinted approval of the British press is not a thing to be coveted by an American running over with patriotism. The extraordinary haste of some leaders in our party has been equaled only by zeal of the English papers in j commending the tariff revision now proposed. The applause or hissing of an enemy, or business competitor, should play no part in our action, but it must jar on the sensibilities of the American merchant or manufacturer to be patronizingly patted on the back by English journals and tradesmen. Did England ever favor anything that was truly American or for the benefit of American business men?
