EDITORIAL LETTER.
WASHINGTON, D. 0., Feb. 24, ’90.
DEAR GAZETTEz—Tlre World’s Fair or
four hundredth centennial of Columbus’
disecvery of America is the one topic now
transcending all others at the Nation’s
Capital. A spirited discussion of the
measure occupied the time of the House,
Foiday. Saturday, a monster delegation
headed by Chauncey Depew, came over
from New York, and a still larger one ar-
rived the same. evening from St.Louis and
Chicago, and our senators and members
are hounded and hunted like that one
poor quail your Wilton correspondent
told the GAZETTE readers about last fall,
as being pursued by six gunners and a
dozen dogs. .
An arrangement has been perfected re-
garding the disposition Of time in the fur-
tlrer debate on. the Fair proposrtion.
Each city interested in Securing the Farr,
will be allowed an hour and a half for
discussing its plans and prospects, one
hour to be taken Thursday and the re-
mainder the following day. In dyawmg
lots for precedence yesterday New Stork
drew first honors, St.Loris, Chicago and
Washington following in the order nam-
ed. Chairman Chandler will reserve one
hour for himself, and may parcel this
hour out as in his judgment may seem
best. An effort'will be made it is expect-
ed to get a vote to-niglit on the question
of location and naturally New York and
Chicago delegates are half frantic over the
result. There are many in and out of
Congress who have a feeling that the Fair
if held at. all, which they seem to think
doubtful, it should be under the auspices
of the general government and the loca-
tion here at the nation’s capital. The
present week will c‘etermine the matter.

THE SUNDAY REST BILL.
The statement that the Southern Bap-
tist Corivention is among the largest and
most influential bodies now petitioning
Congress to legislate 011 the Sunday Rest
Bill, brings out a protest from Rev. Dr.
Joseph Waller, of that body, who says
“The Baptists have always been opposed
to such legislation. And now,” he con-
tinues, “if you will allow a Baptist min-
ister, who is 86 years of age, I wish to
record a few objections to congressional
interference 011 the subject in question :——
1. Such action would be plainly uncon-
stitutional. 'l'hat instrument tells us:
“Congress shall make no law respecting
an establishment of religion or prohibiting
the free exercise thereof.” .
2. Restraining laws would be imprac-
ticable for the whole country. Members
of Congress living at remote points would
be obliged to violate their own laws.
3. It is not possible to deduce from the
Bible a conclusive argument in favor of
any particular day. Gen. 2:23 informs us
that God himself did, but there is not in
those words a. command to Adam, Eve
nor to any mortal to keep a Sabbath. Nor
is there any record of Sabbath keeping for
the first 2,500 years of the world’s history,
according to the Mosaic chronology.
do not deny that there may have been a
Sabbath for the patriarchs, but I say there
is no record or example that there was
Some writers see glimpses of a patriarch-
al Sabbath in a supposed “weekly period,”
but the word Week does not occur in
either the Hebrew or Greek scriptures,
and the numeral “seven,” which does
occur, may connect with days, months,
stars and numerous other seasons without
necessarily designating a Sabbath. But
at the end of these 2,500 years (30d com-
manded the Isrealites to keep a Sabbath in
commemoration of their deliverance from
Egyptian bondage, and urged its obServ—
ance by reference to his own rest on the
seventh day after the creation of. the world.
But this Sabbath would neither have
suited the patriarchs, nor could it be
utilized as a Sabbath for Christians. 1n
the absence then of a divine command to
observe any particular day we 'cannot
present to Congress any_ substantial rea-
sons for invoking their aid in the prem-
ises. I believe in observrng the first day
of the week, but only on traditionary
history and apostolic example._
4. Christians themselves Violate, and
would continue to violate, what they
petition for. Every Lord’s day morning
the street cars in Washington are over-
crowded by ministers and church mem-
bers on their way to the drfierent
churches. Let them not ask aid for poor
working men when they have no mercy
on the brute animals that drug them to
worship. _ _
Finally, in common With the great ma-
jority of Baptists, I say: Let us “render
I
to Ctesar the things that are Caesar’s, and
to God the things that are God’s.”
MISCELLANEOUS.
The number of deaths of members of
the House, sipce the Congressional elec-
tion of 1988, was extraordinary, and at
least one half day in each week for many
Weeks to come will be occupied in the de-
livery of eulogies. Saturday afternoon,
March 15,0108 been set aside by the House
for the delivery of eulogies upon the late
William D. Kelley. A number of It em-
bers have signified their purpose to speak,
and the occasion will be one of solemn
interest. Saturday, March 22, has been
set apart for the purpose of eulogizing the
late Representative Edward J. Gay, and
the evening of Tuesday, April 3, has been
fixed for the delivery of eulogies upon the
late Representative Cox. De mortm’s m'l
Zia/rum.
The bankruptcy bill has been completed
by the House committee on the judiciary
and the chairman authorized to report
favorably to the House.
Since the British extradition treaty is
Tratified by the Senate, with simply the
alteration of the manslaughter and false
pretences provission, so as to define the
former and omit the latter, the two govern-
ments have ample time for considering the
Atlantic fishing and Behring sea contro.
versies. There is reason to think that the
matters in dispute have made considerable
progress toward an adjustment.
The bill introduced in the Senate by Mr.
Davis for the penSiOhihg of all Army
nurses who rendered six months’ service,
at the uniform rate of $25 a month, convers
a class of claimants to whom some similar
act of justice has long been due It is
very certain that the old soldiers will not
begrudge this tardy recognition of the
noble women who cared for them in hos-
pital and camp, and, when occasion re-
quired, 011 the field.
“ l‘he province of Trebizond” is the topic
treated of by U. S. Consul Jewett in a late
report to the State department. Among
other interesting facts he refers to the ex-
istence of a peculiar colony of people re-
siding in this region who have a claim up—
on the attention and sympathy Of every
student of the classics. He says:
“Some forty miles south of Tr'cbizond
there is a community which is highly in-
teresting to the students of history and of
sociology. When the ‘Ten Thousand,’ on
the famous retreat described by Xenophon,
passed through this country a portion of
the army was cut off from the main body
and left behind. They were well treated
by the surrounding tribes, intermarried
with them and settled down permanently
in a community Of their own The people
now living in the district referred to, i11-
cluded in some nine villages, claim to be
the direct descendants of these soldiers of
Xenophon. Their language is Greek and
they profess the Christian religion, though
under the pressure of the \loslem conquest
they nominally adopted Mohammadanism.
Some thirty years ago they formally de-
clared themselves Christians, but, on the
other hand, many of them bear Moham-
madan names and in every village there is
a mosque. As Christian subjects in the
Ottoman empire are exempt from military
servrcc. paying a head-tax instead, the
anomalous position these people hold, fre—
quently causes’difficnlties with the authori-
ties. 'l‘lieir local customs, dialect, tradi-
tions and mixed religion offer an interest-
ing field for investigation and study.”
BISHOP PARET ON DR. CHILDS’ COURSE.
Bishop Pat-ct is reported in the Balti-
more Amerz‘can as saying in regard to the
withdrawal of Rev. Thomas S. Cliilds, of
this city, from the Presbyterian ministry:
“Dr. Childs is a man of marked ability
and high standing in his former relations.
This change is a very important one. It
would not be strange if in the present
unsettlement of Presbyterian doctrines,
growing out of the discussions in regard
to the revision of the Westminster Con-
fession of Faith, many other like changes
«should occur.”
GREATNESS OF DULUTH.
(301. C. H.Graves, of Duluth, speaker of
the House of the present Vlinnesotalegisla-
fare, is spending the winter in Washing-
ton in the interest of the great chain of
lakes improvement, and as.-erts that all
the irony of Proctor Knot’s famous speech
in the House some years ago has more
than been realized. “Deluth is the largest
freight handling point in the world,” he
says. “It is the largest primary grain
market on the globe, and there is enough
iron in the hills north of the city to supply
the demands of all (‘hristendom. Already
5,000,000 tons of ore a year are shipped
front the La- eSuperior country. When I
say the lake commerce of that country is
ten million tons a year the mind fails to
grasp its volume. It would take 5,000
vessels, each laden with 2,000 tons, to
bear the products of our mines and grain
fields to market and bring fuel and fabrics
from the east. A ton is a pretty fair load
fora wagon, but if we loaded ten million
wagons with these products, allowing fifty
feet to each team, it would make a cara-
van thrice girdling the earth, with enough
left over to run a line from the equator to
the poles. At the rate of four miles an
hour it would take three years, moving
night and day, to pass a given p‘JIDIZ, and
another crop would be ripe before it made
the first lap. It is a matter of only a few
years when vessels will load at Duluth
and unload at LlVUl'pOOl and return laden
again. We have eight or ten railroads,
We have shops and ship yards making
railroad cars and iron vessels, we have
the best and most rapid taausit of any city
in the country, and we can handle more
freight in a given time than any other city
on earth. Our elevator system is so per--
feet that a grain vessel can be loaded at
the rate of a thousand bushels a minute.”
WOMEN’S CONVENTIONS.
The real, genuine Susan B. Anthony
woman’s rights Convention was held here
last week, and the same eloquent, power-
ful and unanswerable arguments were
orated before crowded audiences that
I
have been for a quarter of a century.
They resolved, enacted, petitioned and
demanded, and after saying their say and
transacting all sorts of important business
they have adjourned to do it all over
again next year. That was the eonsei-va-
tive element of the movement It 'was
made tip of the women who have fought
the battle along the same line for the last
twenty-five years. '
This week they will be followed by an-
other Set.
women throughout the country have felt
that too many side issues were creeping
into the struggle for equal suffrage. These
more advanced women are of the. opinion
that the question of temperance, the
church, religious matters in general and a
half dozen other such matters, have no-
thing whatever to do with the question of
woman suffrage Accordingly, under the
leadership of Mrs. Matilda Joslyn Gage,
and delegates from twenty-seven states, a
convention is convened here the present
week. This convention has aroused gen-
eral interest, and delegates front every
section of the country are in attendance.
The convention is for the purpose of unit-
ing the liberal-suffrage and other liberal-
thought women of the country in a na-
tional organization to be known as the
“Woman’s National Liberal Union."
PERSONALS.
An excursion party of over one hundred
Bostonians were here sight—seeing last
week.
Mrs. Wm. D. Bishop met with quite a
painful though not seriously injured at
her hotel here last week. She slipped 011
the tile flooring and tunred her ankle,
which has caused her much pain and
necessrtatcd the use of a crutch in moving
about. She expects her daughter to ar-
rive lrerc from Bridgeport this evening.
Senator Catlin was here last week" ex—
erting himself in the interest of harmony
over the Bridgeport collectorship tangle.

Author and Editor Charles Dudley
Warner is here, bound south.
Representative Miles was home all last
week.

Eye Troubles From the “Grip.”
The ravages of the grip, says the Phila-
delphia Record, are yet felt by its victims,
and a new fOrm of disease resulting from
it has "appeared. The oculists are busy
with patients who complain of a burning
sensation in the eye, which has become in-
flamed, and in many cases the range of
vision is affected. It is observed that the
majority of persons so affected were vic-
tims of the grip. One of the leading ocu-
lists in speaking of the disease said, that
the eye seems to be the last part of the
body affected.
The number of cases of eye trouble iias
nor-eased to an alarming extent, and in
most cases it was a secondary complaint.
The disease seems to be a sympathetic one,
as the eye is affected as are other parts of
the body, more particularly to the muscu-
1111' system, to which it causes great pain
in performing its functions.
A noticeable fact is that in the majority
of cases there had been former trouble
with the eyesight, and evidently the grip
had the effect Of rent wing thislate disease:

The Connecticut Mutual.
The full statement of the Connecticut
Mutual Life Insurance Company, of Hart-
ford, Conn., which appears elsewhere this
morning, is a sufficient reason for the army
of people Who are insured there to renew
their confidence in it, and for the people
of Hartford, and of the State, to add to
their pride in this great and solid institu-
tion. Its figures are immense and set it
out as the largest financial concern in all
New England, and none is sounder. Its
assets are $57,874,972, and by the closest
figuring its surplus exceeds $5,000,000.
It is no small task to manage a concern
whose possessions come up close to 8558,-
000,000, and to which about 64,000 persons
have committed their sayings as a defense
against the loss that death is sure to bring
tli their families. ‘
A wise and far-seeing conservatism has
for years characterized the policy of the
Connecticut Mutual. It is seen this year
in the deliberate marking down of the-
book value of the home building by over
$300,000 (which makes that much apparent
shrinkage in the company’s assets, though
it is the same building it was a year ago)
and in the many othar evidences of a care
in the present which means strength in the
future.
