EDITORIAL LETTER.
Wasmue'rou, Jriuc 4, 1888.
DEAR Gazs'rra :——In the Senate the
special interest last week, centered in Sen-
ator Frye’s masterly speech, in opposition
to the fisheries treaty, and in the bill pre-
pared by Generals Hawley and Manderson
elevating gallant Phil Sheridan, ere he
should pass away, to the place of General
of the Armies, the office previously held
only by Washington, Grant, and Sherman.
This latter compliment to a dying hero-
was an act in which the Nation’s repre—
sentatives have honored themselves as
greatly as they honored Sheridan.
In the spirited fisheries debate, led by
Senator Frye, it was clearly revealed why
the Democratic senators, who had all
along been clamoring for open Executive
sessions, changed front so suddenly. They
felt, and have owned themselves, at a
serious political disadvantage in regard to
this fishery treaty. Their President and
Secretary of State have connived, as Frye
charges, at the acceptance by this country.
of one of the most humiliating and dis—
graceful surrenders of the people’s rights
ever assented to in the history of this
Government, and the Democratic senators
now see the fatal error their administra—
, tion have have been guilty of. They say
that the Republican senators from New
England have been familiar with this
fisheries subject in all its bearings all their
lives, while senators from other sections
have felt called upon to study it only in a
general way. The Democrats appreciat—
ing that the Republicans are better
equipped for the contest, did their best to
prevent open sessions. They say that
Senators Frye and Hale, Edmuuds and
Morrill, Hoar and Dawes, and others have
been compelled from their entrance into
public life to keep pace with the fisheries
question, because their constituents have
been and are still directly interested in it.
The controversy on the Democratic side
will be chiefly conducted by Senators
Morgan, Harris, Gray, Beck, Voorhees,
.McPherson and Harris, who will do the"
best they can, with their self consciousness
that they have been put on indefensible
ground by their own administration.
Among the rattling hot shots poured into
the apologists for this disgraceful treaty,
Frye related the following:
One more case. I am not citing these
cases because I think the senators on the
other side have never heard of them. I
am citing them because I wish the Ameri-
can peoplc to weigh your treaty with the
threats and the outrageous acts which
produced it. Take the Marian Grimes.
In October the American vessel Marian
Grimes, of Gloucester, Mass, Capt.
Landry, put into Port Shelburne in a ter-
rible gale, anchored in the outer port,
anchored in the first place she had safety
in, six or eigllt miles from the custom
house port, without the slightest intention
of going into that. She laid there nearly
the whole night. The storm abated. She
hoisted her sails and started out forms,
when Capt. Quigley, of the Canadian
cruiser Terror. fired a shot across her
bowa, brought her to, went on board, took
possession of her, told her that she must
go to port, make entry and report. He
took her six miles out of her way when
she had been not within three miles of the '
shore, and Capt. Quigley knew that she
was in there to escape the storm and for no
other purpose whatever. He told them if
she did not go in and report and enter she
should be fined $400. She was fined $400
as it was, and the money was deposited
to ay the fine.
he Marian Grimes was fined $400.
This fine was imposed by the urgency of
Capt. Quigley of the Terror, and Capt.
Landry was informed that he would be
detained at the port of Shelburne until a
deposit to meet it was made.
While the vessel was in the custody of
Capt. Quigley, Capt. Landry hoisted the
American flag, hoisted it on an American
vessel, on his own, as he had a right to
do, and Capt. Quiglcy ordered this Ameri-
can citizen to haul it down.
Capt. Quigley ordered the American
flag hauled down, and it was hauled down.
Then, shortly afterward, when Capt.
Landry was ready to sail, he hoisted the
American flag once more on that American
ship, as he had a right to do, and Capt.
Quigley came on board, and, with auoath,
took the halyards in his own hand, hauled
down your flag, and you to—day, sir,
[porntiug to Senator Payne of Ohio,] are
gpolrigizing for him in the United States
ena .
Hereupon the galleries broke out into a
tumult of applause at Payne's discomfort,
that could not be suppressed.
Proceeding, Mr. Frye said:
The senator from Ohio wants me ‘to say
that an a logy was made for that. A
weak apo ogy, readily accepted by a weak
administration, was made, but Captain
Quigley kept his office as captain of the
' ship. He sailed afterward through those
waters and seized vessels as he met them
hearing the American flag. Seventy-five
years ago, if Capt. Quiglcy had not been
immediately displaced by his Government
' there would have been a declaration of
war. We made the declaration of war in
1812 for no offence that was any greater
than that. They seized our vessels I ad—
mrt; they searched them and took our
, sailors; blit they seized this vessel with—
out right of law, and the tore down with
their own hands the emb cm of the sov-
ereignity of a Republic of sixty million
people.
And Senator Frye was light, for it is
recalled that in the very throes of our
civil war, when the resources of the Gov—
crnment were strained to their utmost, for
an insult no greater, an apology was
promptly demanded, and from Great
Britain. There has hardly been an ad-
ministration in power since the foundation
of the Republic that would not have forced
the Dominion Government, to send Capt.
Quiglcy and his cruiser to hoist and salute '
the flag be hauled down, under penalty of
an immediate declaration of war. That is
the only apology that should have been
accepted, in the honest feeling of every
true American of whatever party he may
be. , '
SHERIDAN MADE GENERAL.
When the bill reviving the grade of
general was introduced into the Senate, it
was feared Lieut.—Gen. Sheridan could
not live the day out, and a special effort
was made to have the bill passed, engross-
ed, and sent to the President without a
moment’s delay. Brit it was left for a
rebel brigadier, Senator Berry, of ’ Arkan
ass to object. Democratic senators, as
well as Republicans, pleaded with him to
withdraw his objection to granting this
last honor to a hero believed to be fighting
his last battle. But to no effect. His pig-
headed bitterness at last relented, and he
consented that a yea and‘nay vote might
be taken, when all but six Confederate
sympathizcrs supported the bill. Possibly
Berry’s opposition was to be in part ex—
cused by the fact that he lost a leg at
Corinth, while fighting to destroy .thc
Union. The bill having been previously
engrossed, was hurried over to the House,
where the House Committee on Military
Affairs had given it their unanimous ap—
proval, and it was expected it would be
immediately passed. But no—tlle rebel
brigadiers in the House also made a fight,
led by Kilgore,vof Texas, and aided by
Oates, of Alabama. This put its passage
over till next day. Kilgore was wounded
at Chicamanga, and Oates lost an arm be-
fore I’etersbnrg, as both were fighting to
destroy the Union, and so their lack of
humanity and decency maybe overlooked.
The bill passed the House ‘at one o’clock,
and Senator Hawley took it to the White
House and had the President sign it, and
be. having suggested to the President by
telephone that it might be wise to have
Gen. Sheridan’s commission made out in
advancc'of his arrival, and in readiness to
be hurried to the bedside of the illustrious
dying soldier. This was done, and in less
thauahalf hour Sheridan had attached
his own signature in a bold hand, with a
pencil, to a. grateful acceptance of the
Nation’s renewed expressions of love and
confidence in her patriotic hero, who had
so of]: defied death and wounds in battling
for its honor and preservation. It was
the one this: which remained for the
.-:._..l
American people to do to testify their
affection and admiration for their stricken
servant; and the merit of the deed itself
was exalted by the circumstance that both
Houses of Congress passed the bill by a so
nearly unanimous vote. That gallant
soldier is probably fighting his last battle,
with a foe unconquerable. He may never
exercise the powers of general, biit the
compliment was due to his eminent ser—
vices. The President, by his prompt
action did a proper thing ill a graceful
way.
TARIFF.
At the rate of progress made with the
consideration of the tariff bill thus far
under the live-minute rule. the bill would
probably not be disposed of by the end of
the session. '
Two stormy caucuses of the Democrats
of the House have been held. at which
each member seemed resolved to get. the
Mills bill amended to protect whatever iii-
terest each member’s constituents had iii
their keeping. Less then ten lines of the
bill had been considered,wheu a vote was
taken throwing it over the St. Louis Con—
vention.
Saturday Mr. Buchanan's amendment to
prohibit the importation of c5nvict~pro~
duced goods, was rejected by a vote of
105 to 95. ~ .
An amendment ‘otfercd by Mr. Gros—
venor, providing that no goods controlled
by trusts in foreign countries shall be ad—
mitted free underthis section, was rejected
by a vote of 105 to 70.
The Republicans intend no factions de—
lay, but they do propose. to have a full dis.
cussion of this dark-lantern bill, to the
end the country may see its beauties.
worn: or sonoor. CHILDREN.‘
A very wonderful exhibition was held
all last week of the products of the schol—
ars in the public schools of this city. . The
wonder of this industrial exhibit increases
when it is remembered that it embraces
the products of the youngest as well as the
older scholars, and no scholar is allowed
more than two hours ’ in any one week to'
construct the many interesting and useful
objects. Most of the exhibits are what is
called “spontaneous" products. That is
where the child lras been permitted to
build. construct, or model whatever it
likes best. Others come within the school
requirements of manual labor. One boy
takes to wood and another to metal work-
ing, and the articles of use and furniture
are varied and excellent. The girls are
taught to model, draw, and cook and sew,
and many of them become exceedingly
expert. Two small lads have constructed
two electric telephones complete, which
work as perfectly as the Bell instruments.
The draughting is superb, and is done by
both boys and girls. This remarkable ex-
llibit is the result of a purpose to introduce'
into the public schools here, in addition to
book learning, such manual training as
that the scholar may be so equipped on
leaving school, that a living may be earned
by all hands taught to produce useful and
practical results. In view of the modern
exclusion of our boys from opportunities
to learn a trade, this project cannot be too
highly extolled. '
rustic HEALTH. ,
Washingtoniaus are delighted that Prof.
Wm. H. Brewer, of the Sheffield Scientific
School of Yale College, who referring to
the recent report of Health Ofllcer Town-
shend, of the district, expresses-the opinion
that the negro population in Southern'
cities is a more serious matter even than
that of tenement houses in Northeru'cities.
The death rate in both classes of popula-
tion is large. Dr. Townshend’s report es-
tablishes that so far as the whites are con-
cerned, Washington’s showing as to death
rate is the most favorable of any city in
the world of its population.

“Yes," interrupted the little woman, “I
did, until my skin became like parchment,
and so simple and coarse." “Well," said
the listener, “what do you use now?”
"Use," was the reply, “nothing but com-
mon sense and Dr. Pierce’s Golden Med—

if my blood was pure, liver regulated, ap-
petite good, that the outward woman
would take on the hue of health. The

DANGEROUS FEEDULTERATION.
The Fraudulent use of Alum and Lime in
Cheap Baking Powders.
If consumers prefer to buy all adultér—
ated article of food because it can be had
at a lower price, they undoubtedly Irave
the right to do so, provided the adiiltcrants
are not of a character injurious to health.
If such articles are not. falsely sold as pure,
and the customer is rot deceived us to
their real character. the transaction is not
illegitimate.
But the great danger in the traffic in
adulterated food arises from the deception
that is practised by manufacturers usually
classing such goods as pure. This is al—
most invariably done when the adultcrant
is one that is injurious to health. For iii-
stance, manufacturers of alum and lime
baking powders not only fail to inform the
public of the real character of their goods,
biit carefully conceal the fact that they are
made front these poisonous articles. Most
of these manufacturers also claim that
their articles are pure and wholesome,
while some go still further and proclaim
boldly that they are cream of tartar goods,
or even the genuine Royal Baking Powder
itself. No consumer will buy alum bak—
ing powders knowingly, for it is well
understood that they are detrimental to
health. Tire sale of lime and alum linking
powders as pure and wholesome articles
is, therefore, criminal, and it is satisfac-
tory to notice that several persons engaged
in such sale have already been brought to
justice in the courts.
The official unalysts have recently been
active in the pursuit of these dishonest
articles. The baking powders of several
States have been carefully and critically
examined. The officials are surprised at
the large amount of lime and alum goods
found. It is a suggestive fact that no
baking powder except the Royal has been
found without either lime or alum, and
many contain both. Dr. Price's baking
powder has been found to contain nearly
12 per cent. of lime; Cleveland’s 11 per
cent. of impurities; the phosphate powders
over 12 per cent. of lime.
The chief service of lime is to add
weight. It is certain that lime, when sub-
jected to heat, gives off a certain amount
of curbolic acid gas, but a quick-lime is
left—a caustic of most powerful nature.
A small quantity of dry lime upon the
tongue, or in the eye, produces painful
effects; how much more serious must these
effects be on tile delicate membranes of
the stomach, intestines and kidneys, more
particularly of infants and children, and
especially when the lime is taken into the
system day" after day, and with almost
every meal. This is said by physicians to
he one of the causes of indigestion, dys.
pepsia, and those painful diseases of the
kidneys now so prevalent.
Adulteration with lime is quite as much
to be dreaded as with alum, which has
heretofore received the most emphatic
condemnation from food analysts, physi—
cians and chemists, for the reason that
wlulc alum may be partially dissolved by
the heat of baking it is impossible to de—
stroy or change the nature of the lime so
that tile entire amount in the baking pow-
der passes, with all its injurious proper:
ties, into the stomach.
The large profits from the manufacture
of lime and alum baking powders has
placed many of them in the market. They
are to be found in the stock of almost
every retail dealer, and are urged upon
customers calling for baking powders lip—
on all occasions. Because of their well—
known detrimental character it isdcsirable
that prompt means be taken to suppress
their manufacture. .
Pure baking powders are one of the
cllief aids to the cook in preparing perfect
and wholesome food. While those are to
be obtained of well-established reputation,
like the Royal, of whose purity there has
never been a question, it is proper to avoid
all others.

Among the vetoes sent to the House by
Mr. Cleveland was the act to pension Mrs.
Theodora M. Platt, widow of the late
Major Ben Platt, and sister-in-lnw of
Colonel Donn Platt. The text of the Pres-
ident's message is as follows :
I return, without approvhl, House Bill
No. 2,282, entitled “An act to pension Mrs.
Theodora Platt.” Tire deceased husband
of the beneficiary named in this bill served
faithfully and well in the volunteer ser—
vice, and after his discharge as Major, eu-
tcred the regular army and was on the re
tired list at the time of his death. which
occurred on the 17th, day of April, 1885.
At that time he seems to have been en-
gaged in the practice of law at Covington,
Ky. He does not appear to have con—
tracted any distinct and definite disability
in his army service, though his health and
strength were doubtless somewhat im -
paired by hardship and exposure. It is
conceded that he committed suicide by
shooting himself with a pistol.
A coroner's inquest was held, and the
following verdict was returned : “Beu-
jamiu M. Platt came to his death from
a pistol bullet through the brain, fired from
his own hand, with suicidal intent, while
laboring undera fit of temporary insanity,
caused by morbid sensitivchcss of wasted
opportunities, and constantly brooding
over imaginary troubles and financial
difficulties.”
It is said in support of'his widow's claim
for pension, that, being hiiuc as a result,
iii part at least, of his military service, he,
by reason of such lameness, fell from a
staircase a few months before his death,
the injury from which affected his mind.
causing insanity, which, in its turn. re—
sulted in his suicide.
Much interest is manifested in this case,
based upon former friendship and intimacy
with the deceased and kind feeling and
sympathy for his widow. I should be
glad to respond to these sentiments to the
extent of approving this bill, but it is one
of the misfortunes of public life and official
responsibility that a sense of duty fre—
quently stands between a conception of
right and a sympathic inclination. The
verdict returned upon the coroner’s iii-
quest, founded upon a friendly examina—
tion of all the facts surrounding the mel—
ancholy death of this soldier, made at the
time of death and in the midst of his
neighbors and friends, both by what it
contained and by whatit omitted, together
with the other facts developed, led me to
aconchision that if a pension is granted
in this case no soldier's widow's applica—
tion based upon suicide can be consistently
rejected. Gaovaa Ctsvsmxo.

We well knew Capt. Platt during the
war, and know as to his gunshot wounds
and severe exposures having caused him
such intense agonies of pain at times, that
the soldier was at times beside himself,
and there is little,‘ doubt that he suicided
while made insane by his terrible suffer-
ing, caused by army wounds and exposure.
How a man with a head and a heart could
vetoa bill of relief to his poor widow in
the face of such facts is beyond concep-

Among the first symptoms will be noticed
a nervousness or restlessness, with a weak
and tired feeling in the limbs and general
sense bf exhaustion ; any unwanted exer—
tion will he followed by great fatigue, and
the weakness will be very marked. These
symptoms will often be accompanied by
more or less pain, or bad feelings in the
head or backhand the person often wakes
each morning more tired and languid
than on retiring. As the disease pro—
gresses there will be. a coldness and bad
circulation iii the feet and'limbs, followed,
after a time, by a slight numbness or
tingling, at first hardly noticeable, but
gradually becoming more and more
marked. 'The prickling or tingling in the
ends of the fingers or toes will increase
until the sensation is similar to that felt
when, as it is so commonly called, the
'foot or hand is “asleep.” The tingling is
not always constant, but may come and
go at any tline without apparently any
noticeable cause. Among the first symp—
toms, also, are a weakness, tired feeling,

A Cure For Alcohol.
I was one of those unfortunatcs given
to strong drink. It reduced me to degra~
datiorr. I vowed and strove long and
hard, but I seldom held victory over liquor
long. I hated drunkenness, but still I
drank. When I left it off I felt a. horrid
want of something I must have or go dis-
tracted. I could neither eat, work, or
sleep. I entered areformatory and prayed
for strength ; stillI must drink. I lived
so for over twenty years; in that time I
never abstained over three months hard
running. At length I was sent to the
house of correction as a vagrant. If my
.family had been provided for I would
have preferred to remain there, out of
liquor and temptation. Explaining my
affliction to a fellow prisoner, a man of
much education and experience, he advised
me to make a vinegar of ground quassia,
a half ounce steeped in a pint of vinegar,
and to prit about a small teaspoonful of it
in a little water, and drink it down. every
time the liquor thirst came upon me
violently. I found it satisfied the cravings,
and suffused a feeling of stimulation and
strength. When I was discharged I con-
tinued this cure ‘and persevered till the
thirst was conquered. For two years I
have not tasted liquor, and I have- node-
sirc for it. Lately, to try my strength, I
have handled and smelt whisky, blit no
temptation to take it. I give this for the
consideration of the unfortunate, several
of whom I know have recovered by the
same means which I no longer If quire to

actment of laws that propose, by license,
taxing, or otherwise, to regulate the drink
traffic, because they provide for its con-
tinuance and afford no protection against
its ravages. We hold that the proper atti-
tude of Christians toward this traffic is one
of uncompromising opposition, and, while
we do not presume to dictate to our peo-
ple as to their political afilliatiou, we do
express the opinion that they should not
permit themselves to be controlled by par-
ty organizations that are managed in the
interest of the liquor traffic. We advise
the members of our church to aid in the
enforcement of such laws as do not legal-
ize or indorse the manufacture and sale of
intoxicants to be used as beverages, and to
this end we favor the organization of law
and order leagues wherever practicable.
We reclaim as our motto voluntary total
abstinence from all intoxicants as thetrue
ground of personal temperance, and com-
plete legal prohibition of the trafilc in in-
toxicating drinks as the duty of civil gov-
ernments.
