PRESIDENT CLEVELAND AND
THE BONDS.
What a hubbub have we had in
both houses of Congress 1
The law-making department of the
government appears to have forgot
ten its functions. So long since it
has done anything but fret and fume,
it is not surprising to see the pot
boil over now that the fifty-third con
gress is about to be a thing of the
past.
The executive has had a hard time
of it. Compelled to uphold the credit
of the country, made unstable by the
very men who now condemn his
course, he has been forced to issue
bonds three times to keep intact the
gold reserve in the treasury. And
this at a time when congress was in
session, and was specially appealed to
to meet the emergency by appropri
ate legislation.
The President’s hands were tied,
tied by those who should have given
him liberty, and tbc country rest.
He is accused by his political ene
mies of injuring the nation's credit,
and there goes along with it an insin
uation that self-interest has not be*en
overlooked in the transaction.
Senator Hill very properly shows
that bonds have appreciated instead
of declining by this heroic treatment
of the question,
Perhaps the bankers will bo bene-
fitted by the transaction. If they
are, it will not be because such men
as Wolcott, Teller and Lodge are
willing to befriend them.
WEST POINT.
The board of visitors who have the
oversight of the Nation’s Military
Academy, are high in their praise of
everything about the management of
West Point—all but one.
The cadets are good mathemati
cians, fine tacticians,—but, they
can’t express themselves in their
mother tongue, they halt in the use
of English. Jience comes the recom
mendation ihat a full English course
be inaugurated in that institution.
How surprising it is that we often
neglect most what most we need.
If it is so that English is taught
only in the fourth class at West
Point, it is full time that a change is
ordered. No institution of learning
should take it for granted that be
cause an applicant passes the neces
sary examination for entrance, he is
not to be pushed in all that makes a
well-rounded man. A soldier may be
blunt, but he ought to be polished.
If clearness of perception and quick
ness of insight are needed, just as
much does he need the vehicle at
command to convey the thought.
Surely our mother tongue should be
cultivated for all it is worth.
JOHN BURNS AT HOME.
The return of John burns to his
native heath has afforded him an op
portunity to speak unkind things of
the people who opened houses and
hearts to do honor to the working,
man’s friend. Our short-comings
perhaps are many, and our vices may
be very conspicuous, but how unbe
coming is it in one who has tasted of
our hospitality to go out from the
sacred precincts with nothing better
than bitter words of denunciation.
If our “political and administrative
life is “vile, venal and corrupt’’ it is
not for Mr. Burns to tell us of it.
The hero of the working class in
England loses something of his glory,
and a good deal of the respect hith
erto accorded him by Americans,
when he violates so ungraciously the
courtesies extended him.
Is it not time lor us to quit run
ning after every man in public life
who happens to cross to our shores?
They are nothing but common people
after all, subject to like temptations
with ourselves and possessed of our
frailties.
The true philanthropist endeavors
to uplift wherever he’goes. The way
to help his own people is not by
showing the faults of others, but find
ing out the good and commending it.
THE ATLANTA EXPOSITION.
Very glad are we to see that Gov
ernor Evans is taking an active part
In arranging for South Carolina to lie
represented at the Atlanta Imposi
tion.
While our legislators failed to see
the i;u|^rtj,;4iyM)f the occasion as a
means of making known our natural
and acquired resources, our citizens
need not sit idly by and think that
the tide will flow this way anyhow.
We must work if we would win.
Charleston has done the proper
thing. She has gone ahead and or
ganized her Exposition and Finance
committees of her Young Men’s Bus
iness League. They are at work, not
only for Charleston but for the State.
It is our privilege to co-operate with
these committees and make our ex
hibit at Atlanta something worthy of
the State.
Other Expositions will follow the
one at Atlanta. The state exhibit
there could readily be used at other
points without much additional ex
pense. But if it were to end with the
closing of the doors of Atlanta’s Ex
position we would be well repaid all
the toil and all the sacrifice expended
in the effort.
Spartanburg will not be behind any
other county. She has more to show
and she ought to be in the front.
Evans is making us a better Gov
ernor than we anticipated.
AN OBJECT LESSON.
Japan and China have furnished
the world with an object lesson that
is well worth noting.
A few decades ago Japan, rather
unwillingly opened some of her sealed
ports at the repeated knocking of
western civilization. Apt scholars
they proved themselves.
A few years were sufficient to
change this island nationality into a
conquering host. Why? Because
she adopted as her own, and used to
her own advantage those improve
ments in the weapons of modern
warfare that give power to the poses-
sor. China is not so. With the
world around her in joyous activity,
she has kept aloof, and remained
not changed in her conservation, her
lack of enterprise, want of patriotism
and fulness of egotism. She remains
an inert mass, no living force, no
throbbing energy.
Her pitiful cry for peace sounds
like the death knell of the oldest em
pire in the world.
Push, energy, indomitable perse
verance have an open highway over
sloth, indifference and a dying con
servatism.
RUSSIA.
The Russian Empire is very large
and is daily becoming more compact
and more homogeneous. Besides de
tached possessions, she embraces 38
degrees of latitude and 100 of longi
tude in one unbroken stretch. What
a territory for one weak human being
to overlook and pretend to direct! No
wonder is it that the czar of Russia
never reaches old age.
But this vast empire is developing
rapidly, and each day reveals wealth
hitherto hid from human sight.
The new Siberian railroad, built at
great expense and the sacrifice of
many human lives, has opened up a
county to settlement that is among
the most fertile found anywhere.
Russia’s great drawback has been
her lack of open ports. Hemmed in
on the North by the frozen arctic; on
the west by closed seas; and on the
south with no outlet save by suffer
ance, she has, at last, by reaching
out an arm along her Southern bor
der found an open door to the broad
Pacific where, no doubt, she will en
trench herself. Here she will likely
cast a wistful look over to the Aleu
tian islands and thence, perhaps, to
Alaska, at one time part of her own
territory.
Russia is getting alarmingly near
our western border.
WOMEN JOURNALISTS.
Forty pages in one issue of the At
lanta Journal is the outcome of an
effort on the part of the women of At
lanta to advertise and otherwise help
on the Woman’s Building at.the Ex
position.
The managers of this excellent
daily conceived the idea of offering
to the ladies, in charge of the
Woman’s Building, the use of the
paper for one day only. They were
to edit, secure correspondents, ob
tain advertisements, and otherwise
manage the paper for the day.
The successor their efforts evinces
their efficiency.
Four thousand dollars made is a
good nest egg. “Nothing succeeds

FROM WASHINGTON.
A Newsy Letter From the Nation’s
HeadQuarters.
Washington, Feb., 18.—Senator
Hill has been strikingly unfortunate
in bis attempts to assume the role of
mediator between the silver and anti
silver men in the Senate, but be
stated a truth which is’patent to all
men when bo said that on general
financial questions Congress was fur
ther apart now than it was six months
ago, and to prove bis assertion cited
the proposition to issue gold bonds,
which although twice defeated in the
House is still unheld in the Senate
by a few men, on the one band and
the bill for the unlimited coinage of
silver, favorably reported from the
Senate Finance committee, on the
other. No proof was needed. The
division is apparent to all the world.
It was proposed last week that the
Senate should this week pass the bill
for the unlimited coinage of silver,
its opponents having partially agreed
to allow a vote to be taken, after a
day or two of speech making, but
nothing is now certain except the
speech making, certain Senators with
Presidential aspirations being dubi
ous about allowing a vote, to be
reached.
There is still a great deal of feeling
in Congress against the administra
tion on account of the manner in
which those bonds were sold, and
there is more or less mysterious talk
about something t bat "may be done to
prevent thedolivery of the bonds, but
there is no reason to believe that any
thing can be done now. It is u bard
bargain, but it is legal.
Longing eyes are being cast towards
the very qomfortable vacancy left by
the death of Hon. Isaac P. Gray, U.
S. Minister to Mexico, by a number
of gentlemen who will retire from the
Senate and House after the fourth of
next month. It isn’t considered a
desirable mission, but the $17,500 a
year attached to it must appear very
desirable to those who are about to
have their names erased from the
public payroll. If the Senate were on
better terms with President Cleve
land, Senator Ransom would'stand a
good chance to catch the plum as he
has been endorsed by nearly the en
tire Senate.
Senator 11111 Imd an amendment
tacked on to the joint, resolution, ex
tending from March to April 15 the
time for making returns under the
income tax law, which may defeat
the resolution if the Senate insists
upon the Hill amendment. Accord
ing to Commissioner Miller of the In
ternal Revenue Bureau, some of the
questions which officials are forbidden
by the Hill amendment tg^ask are ab
solutely essential, and be has ap
pealed to members of the House to
either get the Hill amendment struck
out or to kilPthc cutire’rosolution.
An interesting fact in connection
with the defeat of the last gold bond
bill in the House is that it would
have been defeated ju»l the same if it
had been left entirely with the mem
bers of either of the political par
ties represented in the House 89
democrats voted for the bill and 91
against; 31 republicans for and <i3
against, while 10 populists voted
against and none for the bill.
As usual in the last weeks of every
Congress, committees are beginning
to report bills which their members
appear to bo exceedingly anxious to
have passed, when they know that
they have not one chance out of a
thousand to get voted upon. There
are always bills affecting the laboring
interests among those so delayed, and
this year is no exception. The arbi
tration bill might have been acted
upon long ago by the House, but it
hasn’t been and now it is in the cal
dron with other delayed legislation,
with no prospect of becoming a law,
even if it should by some chance ef
fort get pu sed by the House, not be
cause of any open opposition to the
bill in the .Semite, but because of lack
of time. Besides, the Senate has
another arbitration bill, which has
been favorably reported from the
committee on education and labor.
It was introduced by Senator Perkins
oLCalifornia, and provides for the
creation of an arbitration commission
of 21 persons, to settle all disputes
between labor and capital. The ro-
port’accompanying this bill estimates
that the loss by strikes in this] coun
try during the six years just passed
has been $98,556,859. A now hill has
just been Introduced by Representa
tive McEttrick, of Mass., making em
ployers engaged in interstate and
foreign, commerce liable for injuries
received by their'employes while on
duty. If asked to guess what would
come of these measures there is not
an intelligent man in Congress who
would not make the same reply—
nothing.
It is on the programme for a feint to
be made of trying to get a vote in the
Senate on the bills admitting Arizona
and New Mexico, but it is perfectly
well understoodJbat neither will be
acted upon. Utah was fortunate. If
she bad not been admitted at the lust
she would not be at this session.
Dr. Parkhurst’s first article to wo
men in The Ladies’ Homo Journal
has proved so popular that the entire
huge edition <>f the February issue
of the magazine was exhausted witiiin
ten days, and a second edition of
45J>90 copies lias been printed.

Mr. Editor: I guess you wiU par
don me if I brag on The Ledger a
little. I know noother paper that
has gained so much popularity in so
short a time, it pleases young and
old, great and small. I can con
scientiously make the assertion that
it has more readers according to
circulation than any other paper in
the state, yes, if not in the world.
If you happen to find a copy thm-
or four days old it has been read to
death or in other words worn out.
Boys, if you want to be popular
with the girls subscribe for The Led
ger and take it with you every time
you go a courting and let your girl
read it until about bedtime, then turn
it over to the old folks and you will
get to stay all night without any trou
ble for they will forget you are there
and if the girl cares anything for you
she wont run you off this cold weath
er nohow.
