WASHINGTON LETTER.
(From Our Regular Correspondent)
Daily Light.
Washington D. C. Aug. 4 1890.
The President accompanied by Mr.
Blaine who has been his guest at
Cape May Point since Saturday is ex-
pected here tomorrow or next day<
and I have it on excellent authority
that he will this week send a special
message to congress containing re-
commendations concerning the tariff*
bill and reciprocity. He carried with
him a mass of information particu-
larly relating to the import-
ation of sugar which Sec-
retary Windom has been some time
engaged in preparing for him for the
purpose of submitting It to Secretary
Blaine and obtaining his aid in pre-
paring a message which will take a
position upon which the entire repub-
lican party in both house and senate
can come together—they have never
been half so far apart as the demo-
crats have tried to make the country
believe.
Owing to the precarious state of his
health Senator Morrill has been
granted an indefinite leave of ab-
sence. This leaves Senator Aldrich
in charge of the tariff* bill and it
would be a difficult matter to place it
in more competent hands. There is
no better posted man in the United
States upon the varied complications
of our tariff system than Mr. Aid-
rich. The senate is not making much
headway with the tariff bill notwith-
standing its meeting daily at 10
o’clock owing of course to the an-
nounced policy of the demo-
crats in delaying it by every
known parliamentary method. How
long the majority propose to
stand this is problematical; but i.
certainly will not be much longert
Senator Blair offered a resolution in-
structing the committee on rules to
prepare and report a change in the
rules which would enable the major-
ity to cut off debate “after a reason-
able time;” but for some cause the
republican leaders in the senate did
not think proper to adopt it at this
time although a caucus has deter-
mined that it shall be done if neces-
sary and the resolution was referred
to the committee on rules.
The house refuses to grant leaves of
absence and has revoked all those in
existence; but that does not keep the
members here as was shown by a
vote taken on Saturday when 140
"pairs” were announced and the
house was compelled to adjourn at 2
o’clock.
The president and a very distin-
guished party of public men will at-
tend the annual encampment of the
G. A. R. at Boston next week. The
party will go on the U. 8. S. Dispatch
but whether they will make the en-
tire trip on her or go to New York
from here by rail and then take the
steamer has not yet been fully de-
termined upon.
The Cleveland democrats are mad
at Representative Flower chairman
of the democratic congressional cam-
paign committee and accuse him of
using his position to lay the wires to
secure his own nomination to the
presidency in 1892. Flower has had
the fever for some years and as he has
a “barrel” of the largest size which
may always be tapped by the right
sort of talk certain democrats are de-
termined that be shall always be in
the field in his mind anyway. Seri-
ously though are not three New York
candidates — Cleveland Hill and
Flower — for the democratic nomina-
tion a little too many for good feel-
ing?
The Louisiana Lottery lobby was
never more active here than it is now
and if unlimited money lavishly
spent will defeat the anti-lottery bills
which have been favorably reported
to the house they will do it; but
there is a healthy public sentiment
throughout the country favoring
those bills and its effects are ap-
parent here already.
The house committee on postoftices
has reported favorably the bills pro-
viding for a postal subsidy of steam-
ships whiih recently passed the sen-
ate.
Representative Rogers of Arkan-
sas attempted to lock horns with
Speaker Reed on a parliamentary
?uestion. He knows better now and
Ike the burnt child will hereafter
carefully keep away from the fire. •
' Senator Plumb has introduced a
concurrent resolution expressing the
desire ot Congress that the remains
of Gen. Grant be brought to Arling-
ton cemetery. R.

The citizens of Selma are getting up
a large celebration to take place Sun-
day August 17th. The local shooting
clubs and shooters have received in-
vitations to attend the festivities and
participate in the great team and pot
shoot.
Dr. Lindner's Surprise.
About eleven o’clock night before
last Dr. Lindner’s attention was at-
tracted to the front door where he
heard a queer noise as though some
one wanted to gain admittance. He
cautiously opened the door and peered
out into the street when suddenly
his pet dog “Napoleon” that had
been missing since eight months
climbed upon his former master with
barks of delight. The doctor says
soiue Hoggites must have kidnapped
him and he returned with them when
they began to flock in for the conven-
tion.
Republican League Club Meeting.
A regular business meeting of the
Republican League club No. 12 was
held at Mission garden last night.
Only matters pertaining to
the business of the club
were entertained. Several new
members were proposed and
elected under suspension of the rules.
Among the number an old Mexican
war veteran from Frio county.
The committee appointed to ar-
range for the republican
state convention reported pro-
gress; the soliciting committee to
secure funds have done very well but
will call on our citizens not yet visit-
ed to make up the amount needed.
FAIR NOTES.
The list of prizes and premiums by
private parties and firms continues
to swell. Besides those already men-
tioned are Nic Tengg and General
Russ who will give private prem-
iums.
The press agent Mr. Bushick
keeps a scrap book in which he pre-
serves all of the press notices given
this year’s fair which shows that the
press in and out of the state have
given the exposition a great deal of
excellent free advertisement.
The Mexican government appears
to be fully aware of the good result-
ing to that country from our fair and
it will be ably represented at the
same as letters to the association
show. Mr. Trueheart writes that the
department of state has taken the
matter in hand and has officially ad-
dressed the various governors in the
country on the subject. Besides this
the private exhibits that have been
already promised will alone give us a
finer Mexican exhibit than any of the
previous years.

And some for Cook but the popular ver-
dict is that the place to buy fine diamonds
watches and jewelry is the Diamond Pal-
ace of L. Rouvant. Call and see him and
you will also be convinced.

A Reply.
Mr. Editor Being the fireman
referred to in the communication to
your paper of the 4th inst. and signed
by Mr. Kampmann I wish to state
that the matters referred to never
originated from me or any member of
the Mission Hose company. The
safety of several buildings being con-
structed was questioned by other
members of the board of fire
directors and a resolution was
passed calling the city council’s
attention to same. The building re-
ferred to being one mentioned. These
are facts that can be substantiated by
every member of the board of fire
directors present at that meeting.
The proceedings of the board are
public property and require no autho-
rity from any one to have same pub-
lished. Respectfully
