OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, June 21, 1886.

DEAR GAzaTra :—-Friday the Senate ad-
journed over till to-day, having nothing
before it for action in consequence of the
dillitariness of the House. Thursday and
Friday the Senate cleared its entire calen-
dar of all unobjected to bills, and Senator
Allison called attention to the fact that the
House had by its delays in acting upon
the necessary bills of the session left the
Senate with practically nothing before it
to do.

Thursday, Morrison attempted to get
consideration for his free-trade tariff bill
in the House, but failed. He complains
bitterly that thePresident being as'strong-
ly in favor of the measure as himself, and
wishing him success did nothing to aid

 

 

him in getting votes for it among demo— mound of daiscs bordered with Jacquemi_ little pain,

crat'ic members representing districts in-
favor Of protection. Morrison is, at least,
frank and wise. He says the republican
party is committed to the principles Of
tariff and protection to home industries.
That the democratic party is committed
to the principles ’ot free-trade; its party
organization is dominated by it, and the
pledges its party made to the people in
the Presidential campaign was for an im-
mediate recognition and adoption of free-
trade legislation; that the President has
not hesitated to send for members Of con-
gress and request their assistance and
votes in other pending matters, and he
doesn’t see why he should have left his
“reform” tariff bill to defeat with a large
majority of democrats in theHonse. The
President’s organ the Past thus dolorously
cracks its whip over these recusant demo-
crats:—- '

The thirty-five Democrats who voted
with the Republicans yesterday, and so
defeated by a vote of 150 to 140 the mo-
tion of Mr. Morrison to take up and con-
sider his bill for the rivision of the tariff,
will be held responsible for their action
by their constituents and by their party
all over the country. These men are
Democrats, but they have deliberately
violated their promise to the peopl_e as
signed, scaled and delivered in tlieChicago
platform. _What sort of Democrats are
they? .

It is no pleasure to reproach With a
breach of trust a respectable minority of
the party which, for the first time in 25
years finds itself in charge of the responsn
bilities of government, and which was
elevated to power because of the solemn
pledge to reconstruct the tariff. But
what can be said in their defensc'xi HOW
can they justify themselves? With the
party in favor of it, the platform in. favor
Of it, the President in favor of it, the
Secretary of the Treasury in favor of it,
the Speaker of the House in favor of it,
and the Ways and Means committee. in
favor it—for thirty-five men to be guilty

of overthrowing their own party and

handing the platform on which they elect-

ed their President over to derision—_—tlierc
is no precedent for such mad fatuity in
the history of American parties.

These ardent free-trade Democrats are
forgetful of the fact that just 97 years ago
Geo. Washington signed the first tariff act
which committed this nation to the prin-
ciples of protection to American labor,
American industries, American products,
and manufacturing and commercial inde-
pendence of the Old world. This was the
foundation Of our distinctive policy known
in history as the “American system of
Protection,” and was familiarly called in
its day “the second declaration of inde-
pendence.” The partisans of that day
were not devided as now on this vital

. issue of self protection. Federalists and
Republicans alike supported the protective
system, and unitedly stood by the tariff
signed by Washington. Our modern
democratic converts to “reform” see a
different light from Washington, Clay and
Webster, and the patriot fathers of the
republic. '

CONNECTICUT IN THE VOTE.

Representatives Waiteand Buck voted
against the consideration of the Moriison
bill. Their view was that coming up
now, at the heel of the session, with no
possible chance of its becoming a law,
and all the time comsumed would be
worse than wasted in the criminal neglect
of matters that ought to be legislated
upon, it were better to refuse it consider-
ation. On the other side both Mr. Sey-
mour and Mr. Mitchell voted to take up
the bill and give it present consideration.
This was not a direct and positive vote
for the bill as reported, but it is well un-
derstood by their party associates that
both our Connecticut Democratic congress-
men would vote for it if opportunity of-
fered. Mr. Seymour had clearly indicated
that.he should support the bill in the
speech he had obtained leave to have
printed in the record last week.

SOCIETY.

The President and his bride gave two
receptions the past week. The first was
upon invitation to Washington ofiicials to
the number of some two thousand, and
the last one Friday evening to the public
en masse, when a mob of over five thous-
and crushed into and out of the White
House. The testimony Of all who have
thus had a chance to ace and observe. the
bride of the White House is to the effect
that in looks and manners she is a sweet,
cordial, unafl’ectcd, yet refined and digni-
fied lady, indicating the possession of su-
perior qualities of head and heart.

“LOVE THE SOLDIER so.”

The last National Tribune furnishes the
following vigorous coloquy between Col.
J crome Burke, commander of the Depart-
ment of the Potomac, G. A. R., and Assist-
ant Secretary Of the Treasury Smith:

“The President and members of the
cabinet have announced that the soldiers
would be retained in office,” said Colonel
Burke, “but, like all other pretentious of
the administration it is a‘ sham. You are
discharging soldiers and their widows
every day and putting Confederates in
their places, and you know it as well as I
do. Down in the supervising architect’s
office you have got an cx-rcbel who has
turned out nearly every soldier there was
on the rolls, and nearly everyone of them
has been succeeded by an Cir-Confederate.”

Mr. Smith replied thathe was not aware
that any soldier or soldier’s widow had
been removed, and if such was the case it
was done without his knowlcge.

“Well,” saidCol. Burke, “a week or so
ago Miss Von Tageu, of Philadelphia, who
is acknowlegcd to have been one of the
best clerks in the service and received a
salary of $1,800 a year, was dismissed.
She came to you for the reason, and you
told her that her place was wanted for a
democrat; that she had been in office 14
years and ought to give some one else a
chance.”

Mr. Smith acknowledged the truth of
the statement. .

“That woman,” continued Col. Burke,
“had a father and four brothers in the
army. The brothers were killed and the
father was crippled for life. He is an Old
man, dependent upon herfor support, and
she is now out of employment, and the
records of this department Will show that
she has fully earned every dollar that was
paid her.”

Mr. Smith responded that he was not
aware of these facts, and would try to
find Miss Von Tagen another place.

“I don’t want you to find her another
place. I want you to send for the ex-rebel
chief clerk of the supervising architect’s
office, and order him to put her back in
her old place.” '

Mr. Smith promised to look into
matter in a few days.

PROMISE TO PROTECT SOLDIERS"WIDOWS AND
ORPHANS NOT KEPT.

The following tracers were :dismisscd
from the architect’s ofiicc on'the 14th inst.:
Misess K. P. Dungan, of Baltimore; A. A.
Elder, of Philadelphia, and L. R. Fletcher,
of this city. The dismissals were without
cause and at a time when there was work
awaiting to be done. The new oneslput
in are not competent to do the work.
Miss Elder lost her father and a brother
in the Union army during the late war,
and also had another brother in the service
who came out alive. The consideration
promised to the widows anQ, daughters of
soldiers is not being carried but. ‘
NURSERYMEN AND FLORISTS

Tho eleventh annual meeting of‘the Na-
ional Association of Nurserymcn, Florists
and Seedsmen was held here last week.
J. H. liale, of Connecticut, was elected

Esq., Of the New Canaan Nurseries, was
present, with Mrs. Hoyt. P. M. Augur
do Sons, of Middlefield exhibited a very
fine new seedling strawberry, which they
have named the “Jewell” in honor of the
late Gov. Marshal J CWell. The large and
beautiful looking and exquisitely flavored
fruit was much admired and the new ac-
quisition deemed a very valuable one.
Mr. Hoyt purchased a thousand plants.
MISCELLANEOUS.

It is thought the effort to make Bridge-
port a port of cn‘
parties can ship dutiable goods to Bridge-
port direct.

Gcn. and Mrs. Jesse Benton Fremont
have been'living here very quietly the past

the New York Herald’s correspondent gave
Mrs. F. a luncheon party last week, at

and Mrs. Speaker Carlisle. The table dec-
orations were unusually pretty and taste-
ful, the central piece being a large solid

not roses. A long stemmed rose, with one
leaf turned back, on which was the name
in gilt letters, lay at each cover.
Among the recent graduates of the law
department Of the Columbia University
here, was Frank Warriner of the Patent
Office and a native of Derby. Frank came
here a few years since as a marble cutter
and was a workman on the Washington
Monument. By an accident from a chisel
cut in the knee, he lost a leg. His condi-
tion and his worth, excited the sympathy
of Senator Platt and he obtained a subor-
dinate position for Frank in the Patent of-
fice. By dilligent application he won one!
promotion after another till he has reached
the grade of Assistant Examiner of Pat-
ents. Meantime he took a course of law
studies and last week graduated with the
degree of bachelor of laws. Good for
Frank Warrincr. Alvin Tracey and John
Doyle were the other Connecticut gradu-
ates. Doyle is a clerk of the civil service
commission, and if we mistake not is a
nephew of Judge Birdsall of the Hartford
Telegram and passes his vacations at the
Judge’s palatial summer home at Compo.
A bill granting a pension to Dr. Stock-
ing, late surgeon of the 17th Connecticut
Vols, is before House Committee on Pen-
sions.

John Tweedy the popular Danbury post-
master, is carrying quite a sum for Uncle
Samuel, because Of the exhaustion of the
appropriation to pay for postal stationery.
By the 30th inst., it is presumed the new
appropriation will be available and Dan-
bury’s postmaster relieved from the bur-
den of the Nation’s debt.

WOULD BE mssan. .

A prominent member of the G. A. R.
states that were “mental and physical
wreck” Black to attempt to enter any one
of the Grand Army Posts here, he would
be hissed into the street. The Senate in-
vestigating committee will be able to show
in its forthcoming report, that he is more
of a moral wreck than anything else and
that his conscience has been more thor-
oughly rcsectcd than his humerus.

MORE ruserox vn'ross.

The Sunday Washington papers an-
nounced the presence of mental, moral
and physical wreck Black, at the White
House Saturday evening. Knowing ones
at once interpctred it as meaning vetoes

'of some of the many pension bills voted
by ' Congress to wounded and disabled
Union soldiers. This afternoon, therefore,
when the President’s Secretary appeared
at the Senate door with his batch of Pres-
idental vetoes of bills granting $8 per
montlrto a few of the many disabled sol-
diers that both Houses of Congress had
decreed entitled to pensions for their army
services and sufferings, no one Was dis-
appointed.

_ PERSONALS.

Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Hoyt, of New Ca-
naan were at the President’s levee, Friday
evening previous to starting for Connecti-
cut.

Capt. F. J. Peck and his daughter, of
Connecticut, are the guests of Representa-
tive C. L. Mitchell, here. They attended
the President’s reception Tuesday night in
company with Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell.

the past three months, will go to Newport
to spend a fortnight with her aunt, Mrs.
M. H. Sanford, in her villa overlooking»

Our Esteemed Contemporary. .

Editor Bolles of the New Milford Gazette
published last week an editorial two and a
quarter columns long, telling, in his elab-
orate and scholarly style, just how to con-
duct 8. local paper, and recounting his
own success with pardonable pride. We
rejoice in Bro. Bolles’ prosperity, for he is
an honest, Conscientious journalist, with
the very common propensity for slopping
over. His long editorial on newspaper ct-
iquette, however, we have searched in
vain for an allusion to the questionable
courtesy of dilating upon a typographical
error in a contemporary paper. When
a. blunder of our “intelligent compositor”
made Bolles’ charmer wink with “rougisli
eyes” he protested with sarcasm and fluent
grammar. If, after all, it should appear
that she actually had “rougisli eyes,” from
the fact that she got an accidental dab of
rouge in her roguish eyes while making a
hasty toilet, then is Bro. Bolles’ grammar
vain, and his sarcasm is also vain. But
may happiness comminglc with success in
his coquetrics with those roguish eyes.

By the by, Bolles has just printed the
opening chapter Of a continued story,
written by himself, entitled “A Wayward
Charmer," a love story which We are de-
barred the pleasure of reprinting, from
the fact that Bolles has had it patented,
with “all rights reserved.” It promises
well, but will probably run into evolution
before the marrying chapter is reached.
We’re going to risk the penalty of infringe-
ment, to the extent of reproducing one of
the poetic gems from the flowery descrip-
tive part:

“The sun was sinking behind the west-

ern hills, and their long shadows stretched
across the meadows cast of them.” .

‘ Now how much more romantic it would

have been for the author to have made
the sun sink behind the eastern hills and
stretch the shadows west; or, better yet,
stretch the western hills across the mead-
ows and the long shadows across the sink.
To a writer Of Bro. Bolles’ resources there
should be no limit to the possibilities of
imagery offered by one sun, a few west-
ern hills and some meadows and long
shadows. Again, the author says that a
smile from the heroine of the story “would
net easily have not been forgotten by any
man,” a doubtful compliment to “any
man’s” gift of memory, probably intend-
ing no reflection on the “smile.” But
perhaps we have cited enough to demon-
strate that Bro. Bolles’ story is a gem,
and to convince our esteemed Bro. Bolles
that glass houses are a poor barricade for
stone throwers.

 

 

Keep it Up.

against the indecent and immoral pictures
distributed as advertisements for certain
brands of cigarettes. And the prospect of
utter annihilation stares the pictures in the
face.

A Doctor Bound Over.
from the Hartford Times is known here:

Waterbury Saturday upon charges of false
pretenses preferred by E. J. Manville.
The evidence was that during last March
the doctor agreed to cure Mr. Manville of
certain private ailments within eight weeks.
Mr. Manville pressed the doctor for an ex-
amination but the latter insisted that he
knew exactly what the trouble was, and
could guarantee a certain cure. He gave
the patient some medicine which lasted
about six weeks but which proved to be
of no benefit to him. He had advanced
the doctor in the meantime $75. Dr.
North testified that he had examined Mr.
Manville about a year ago and found him
suffering from cancer. At that time the
case was incurable by an means known
to medicine or surgery. ehad examined
Mr. Manville again Saturday morning, and
