WASHINGTON , D. C. , Jan. 10. [ SpecialCor
respondence of TUB BRU.J The congress
man from Now England are among the
itrongost men in Washington. They number ,
ill told , In the lower house only twonty-slx ,
tv eight loss than the representatives of the
ono state of Now York nnd two loss than
Pennsylvania. AH Now England has only
fiyo moro inprcsontutlvos than Ohio , and you
can add the twelve Now England senators to
the twonty-slx Now England representa
tives , and the Now England men hero then
- Will only oxcocd by two the representation
from Now York In both houses. Still It has
boon for years ono of the strongest sections
In congress. James U. Blalno of Maine was
long the loader of the republican party aud
ho hold the spoakorshlp of the house in the
itormiost times of our history. Now Thomas
B. Rood U the leader of the opposition In the
lower houso.
The Men from jriilno.
Take a look at ths man from Maine. Sena
tor Fryo Is a typical Yankee , but with it all
there Is no broader gauge man In the union.
Ho Is thoroughly equipped on all public
Questions and ho tests everything with thu
loadstone of common sense. to was twelve
yearn in the house of representatives before
ho came to the senate , and had made a repu
tation there as a bold and fearless loader.
When Blatno was mndo Garllola's secretary
of sktto ho was olootcd to take his place in
the senate , nnd his first spoooh was In defense -
fonso of Now England aud against the south.
Bonator Call of Florida had described the
workliiKmou and women of Now England
"as hungry , starving serfs , " aud Fryo ro-
plloa that the working people of one of the
tales of Now England alone had enough
money deposited In their savings banks to
buy all the real and personal property of live
eiich states as Florida aud have $50,000,000
loft. ' * The serfs ot Massachusetts , " said ho ,
'hiu-o $ ' . ' 00,000,000 dopwltocl in their savings
banks , and the whole valuation of the state
of Florida is only $30,000,000. " Ho
then wont on to attack Louisiana
nnd North Carolina and succeeded In
angering the whole democratic side of the
chamber. U is a peculiarity of bis that ho
handles all things without gloves. Ho Is
packed full of practical common sense aud
bo has a manly hatred of all shams , and it
does not make much difference whether tbo
ham Is a doniooratlo ono or n republican
ouo. There ia nothing snobbish about Fryo
aud ho would Just as leave bo called "Bill"
by bis constituents as Senator Fryo. Ho
tolls a story of himself , when ho was attor
ney general , which Illustrates the saying that
the senator Is not without honor save In his
own country. Ho was attorney general of
Maluo at this time and was going from tbo
oapltol to his homo. Said bo : "As I walked
oowu tbo steps of the ataU boiue I met a
Ilaydons. whcro you find the best
llchtod and Inrircst store , nlso tbo Im

man who accosted mo with , 'Good morning ,
general. ' 'Good ' morning , sir , ' said I. When
I cot oa the train another acquaintance spoke
to mo and said : 'God ' morning , major. '
'Good morning , sir , ' I answered. At the next
station I mot another friend who addressed
mo as 'Good morning , colonel , ' and I replied.
'Good morning , sir. ' Tuo next man greeted
mo with , 'Good morning , Mr. Fryo , ' and I
replied , 'Good morning , sir. ' I had received
so many titles , however , in the course of an
hour that I hardly know which was the right
* > no until us I w.u going up the street to my
homo a man mot tno who yelled out the same
greeting that ho had glvon ma In my college
days and shoutoJ , 'Ho.v aroyor. Bill , ' and I
suppose that was the bo st ono. "
Why IIo Uon't Save Jloucy.
There is , however , nothing undignified
about Senator Fryo. He has the plain every
day manner of the Yankee business man aud
Ifo is a vary oar.ioat matter with him. Ho
dresses In plain , business clothes , and has
never oecomo acclimated to the lounging ,
loafing airs of soniJ of his follow senators.
Ho is not a nun of much means and ho lives
very simply \Vashiu0lon. . Ho said a few
yoara ago that ho was not worth $35,003 and
his salary probably constitutes his chief
means of support. Ho does not buliovo in
saving inondy and ho savs he got a lesson to
this effect from his crand father when ho was
u boy. Said he :
"I was brought up In a Quaker family and
when during my boyhood I got a chance to
takn a trip to Boston my grandfather gave
mo $5 to spend. I did not know any boys In
Boston and I could think ot no wny to have
$3 worth of fun without boys , so 1 Kept tbo
money in my pocket. When I got homo my
grandfather asked me how I had spoilt the
$5 and I , with the air of ono who hud dona a
ytrtuous aft , said : 'I did not spend It at all
grandfather. I saved it aud I have It in my
pocket. ' Hereupon my grandfather replied :
I'ticc may give mo back tha money , William.
I gave thco that money to spend at Boston. '
This , ! ' concluded Senator Frye , "taught mo
a lesson and over smco that I have known
bettor than to save money. "
Senator Fryo Is , however , by no means an
extravagant man. Ho has a largo family and
about eight grandchildren. Ho is 62 years
of ago , but does not loolc 50 and ho thinks
the secret of his wonderful health 1s the
fishing to which ho devotes three months
every year , spending this tlmo on the Maine
lakes In tbo northern part of his stato.
Suu.itor l.'iifjoiio llulo.
Senator Eugene Halo is an entirely differ-
out man from Senator Fryo. Ho is In the
llrst place ono of the richest men In Wash
ington , having become so through his nur-
ilago with tbo daughter of Zach Chandler.
Senator Chandler lofc. a fortune of fj,000.j0 , ( )
and half of this went to his wife and tno rest
to his only daughter when ho died. Senator
Chandler was very generous during his life
time and ho gave Senator Halo's children
each $59,000 at the tlmo they were born ana
Invested the money , It Is said , In government
bonds us u nest og for the children to bocln
llfo with. Senator Halo has the tlnost house
In Washington and ho lives in as good style
ns any of bis brother millionaires In the
United States senate. Ho was , however , not
born with a golden spoon in his mouth aud
his father was a fanner in ono of th s country
districts of Maine. Young iUlo was ad
mitted to the bar when hevaj 21 , nnd ho
acted for nlno years as prosecuting attorney
of Hancock county and followed this with
thirteen year * In Maine legislature. Now it
happened that a man named Pike had been
representing the congressional district in
which Senator Halo lived , In the house.
There was considerable opposition to him
from some of the counties of the district , and
seeing ho could not get the nomination , ho
concluded , so tbo story coos , to make a con
gressman and ho picked upon Hale , and bo
was nominated and elected , Senator Halo
came to congress while Blalno was in the
lonlth ot his power and , Blalno took a great
liking to him nd dla ruuoa to help him oa.

Ho lived for a time at Blalno's house and
Blnino , as spealior , pushed him forward to
such an extent that the Into Sam Cox , much
to bonator Halo's Indignation , once referred
to him as Speaker Blaluo's "LittleBub. . "
Hale , however , showed himself a man of abll-
itv and with powerful friends and a shrewd
diplomatic manner ho got on. Grant
wns so pleased with him that he
wanted to make him his post
master general and Hayes offered him a cab
inet appointment. Ho declined both and just
cloven years ago reached the goal of his am
bition , a seat in the United States senate.
Ho is now 60 years old. ana is In the very
prime of life. Of medium height , his form
Is sUaldht and well rounded and the only
sign of bis advancing years is the iron gray
which is creeping into his banged black hair
and mottling the sombre hue of his full black
beam. Some of his follow senators accuse
him of having a very good opinion of him
self , and this recalls an incident which took
place during a'cumpaign in which ho ana
Fryo stumped the state together. Tnoy
were riding in a couch nnd Mrs. Fryo was
ono of the party.
Senator Halo had the front scat and had
to ride bacKvvards , whllo Senator ana Mrs.
Frya sat facing the horses , opposite him.
Senator Halo was In a joking mood and told
Mrs. nnd Mrs. Fryo that if any fat woman
came along aud got into the stage , she would
have to sit with thorn. Just at this moment
a fat woman did coma and upon Halo tolling
her that she had not better ride backwards
and that ho thoucht Mr. aud Mrs. Fryo could
make room for her , the woman , who was of
the Irish persuasion , said : 'Indado sir , I
dun't moind riding backward at all , ' and
tnoreupon plumped herself down foaido Sen
ator Hule. Senator Hale laughed and as
they wdtot on tried to banter the woman , and
said : 'Now , my good lady , It another
woman would get In , she would buvo to sit
over there with them woudn't shel'
" 'Yes sir , ' said the fat woman , 'I suppose
she would. 'Ye see I am vary largo mosilf
and mo hoop Is Very largo and I see you fool
very largo , and so I don't think thora would
bo room on this scat. '
What Senator Halo replied , I have nbvor
board.
Senators Hour nnd Dawes.
The two senators from Massachusetts are
men of weight. Both huvo for yours been
prominent before the country and since t lie-
pass ing of Edmunds Hoar Is to u largo extent
tbo watch dog of the republican party. Ho
Is a man of unquestioned integriiy , broad
reading and much morothan ordinary ability.
Ho comes from ono of tbo oldest families of
Massachusetts. His grandfather was a cap
tain in the revolution and his lather gradu
ated from Harvard in 1S03 and was possessed
of some of the same qualities which have so
prominently cropped out In his son. Ho was
opposed to slavery and was sent by the legislature -
laturo of Massachusetts to Charleston , S. C. ,
some tlmo boforu the war to test the constitu
tionality of the right of that state to Imprison
free colored people who had .committed no
offense against the lawn. Ho wont , but the
legislature of South Carolina expelled him
from the stuto ana ho came back again. TbU
man married a daughter of Kogor Sherman
and Ooarge F. Hoar \yas ono of the results
of the match. His orother bad boon the at
torney general under Clraut and It was about
this time that Hoar came to congress. Ho
served twelve years in too lower house
baforo.uo got to tbo sonata and among
other prominent things with v/hlch ho had
bean connected , was the management of the
Ballinup Impeachment trial , and ho was also
a member of the electoral commission of
1STU. Senator Hoar is saia to bo ono of the
best posted men on American history la con-
gross. Ho U the president of the American
Antiquarian society , and has received tbo
degree of doctor of law from the colleges ot
Amborst , Yale , Harvard and William and

In bis makeup , and ho Is by no means averse
to a ] eke on bis brother soaators. Ho lives

Senator Dawes Is now' 76 years old. Ho
was born during the administration of James
Madison , and is a graduate of Yale college.
Ho began hfu as a school teacher , and
served as a country editor nnd a lawyer
before ho pot to congress at the ago of 41.
Slnco then ho has been almost continuously
in public In ono house or tho'other , and ho
was eighteen years in the ) house of repre
sentatives before'he'.was elected to the
senate to take the seat of Charles Suranor.
During the past year ho has mode Indian
affairs his hobby , and ho knows more about
the Indians than any man. In the body. Ho Is
an enthusiast on the siibjcct of Indian
education , and when this subject comes up
in tbo sonata ho tears tu6 air and shouts and

The two senators from Vermont are Justin
S. Merrill and Rodflold Proctor. The state
has lost a great deal In the tetlremo'nt'of Ed
munds , and if Vermont is'to have muph in
fluence on the legislation of tuo sonata h3 re-
after it will have to como from Procter. Senator -
ator Merrill has finished tho.bost . part of his
life's ' work. Ho Is the oldest United States
senator. He was born in 1810. only a year
or so after 1'rcsiuout Jefferson loft the White
House , and bo has had a longer continuous
service in congress than any ono elsa at
present in public life. Ho has boon hero
binco 1853 , and ho has been In the sonata
since 1807. Ho is now 83 years old , though
bo'looks some what younger. Ho is over six
feat tall and his shoulder * are bent with
years. Ho has u great head covered with
bushy Iron-gray hair , which ho combs like
that of Charles Sumner , Ha has the same
llttlo gray side whiskers that Sumner had ,
and bis face Is rumaritably Ilko that of the
great Massachusetts statesman. Ho has in
bis house a bust of himself which Is often
taken for a bust of Sumner , and I am
told that ho prides hlnuolt upon the
rosomblanco. Senator AJbrrill was a mer
chant till ho was as years of ago and ho had
left his store to go on a filial when ho was
elected to congress. WHerf be'xatiio bore ho
found himself in tnlddlo lifo'with an educa
tion acquired oniony in a , stQraand the great
est of public questions werp ai yet unmas-
toriHl by him. Shortly aftoi1 } li'o had como to
tbo house the democratic speaker , In looUing
qvor the republican side to'llnd ' the weakest
man to put on the wayit and .means committee -
too , picked out Morrill. Wp'rrlll decided to
show the house that it was * mistaken in him ,
Ho Wont to work at once to1 study economic
questions und'rio put in his jJmo to such ad-
vuntago that ho soon bacamaOHO of the chief
authorities of congress , ald'ho was mauo
chairman of the comnilttc'q when bis party
got into power. Ho draw tuo'famous Merrill
tariff law of 1801 , and ho bai * maintained his
position as ouo of the loading Uuancl&l think
ers among our public men from that time to
this. Ho l a man of mouni as well as cul

Of all the Now England senators tu ro are
none who are so well known as bonator
William E. Chandler of Nuw Hatnpjhlni. and
General Joe Hnwloy or Connecticut. They
are both Yankee proJjota , and each has his
peculiarities. Hawloyts pcrbnp.J the abler
speaker , ' but Chandler is the greater
politician , nnd ho Is Hawloy's equal as a man
of affairs. I doubt whether lih&ro Is a
alirowdor political manager In Jh. country
than Chandler , Ho Jumped Into the lap of
his party as soon asvjio bocamaof , ago , and
metaphorically spooning , he ha * waxed fat
onoQlco holding. Ha. wns llttlo moro than a
boy when ho became chairman of the state
committee of Now Hampshire , aud ho was
for eight yoara secretary of tbo national

of the leading managers of the republican
party over slnco. Ho was made counso' of
the government In trying the naval frauds in
Philadelphia in 1801 by President Lincoln ,
and Jonnson madehlm his assistant secretary
of the treasury. President Arthur appointed
him secretary of the navy , and a sttort time
after holoft that department ho came to the
senate. Senator Chandler has always been
an outspoken republican , and though bo
helped to make President Hayos.bo violontiv
opposed his southern polioy. He
is noted for saying hitter
things.and it was a remark against the sduth
that stirred up his fuss against Senator Joe
Blackburn , in which Chandler Is said to have
called Blackburn an "ox-nogro driver , " and
Blackburn is said to hav'd contemptuously
pulled Chandler's caw. How this may bo I
dnn't Know , but the actions on both sides
would have boon perfectly natural to both
senators. It would not require a very bravo
man to insult Senator Chandler. Hols a little
pigmy of a follow weighing not over 125
pounds. His thigh is hardly as big as Black-
ourn's Weeps aud you could put his little
bushy , iron-gray head , black rubber glasses
aud all , Inside of Joe Hawloy's big cranium
and it would rattle around like a pea iu a
bladder. Senator Chandler , however , makes
up in nervous energy nnd brain what bo
lacks in size. Ho Is packed full of onorpy
and ntGT , through his own efforts , has made
a reputation nnd a fortune of between tlOO-

republican convention at Chicago in 1803 ,
when Grant was nominated , and -ho has b < ; on

Ol Court Notes.
There are some 000 man in Omaha who will
bo happy when they learn of the decision
handed do\vn by Judge Doano yesterday.
The case was that of Paul W. Harbach
against Douglas county. It was a suit
brought to restrain the county from paying
the Judges and clerks who served at the
election hold last November the sura of f 0
each for tno days' services. At that election
the county , the city and the Board of Edu
cation participated , each corporate body
electing oWcers.
Tbo Heal Estate Owners' association took
the position that but ono election was held ,
in which event the Judges and the clerks
would bo entitled to but $0 oach. The mon
who handled tbo Dallots looked at the matter
In a Different llght.and declared that there
were tbroa elections , ono hold by the county ,
ono by the city and still another by the Board
nf Education. When the men walked up to
the county clerk's onlco they were confronted
with the Information that an injunction had
issued restraining the delivery of tbo war
rants. The case at o.nco wont into the dis
trict court where arguments were made some
weeks ago.
Judge Dqano In passing upou the case
stated that there was nothing in the petition
to show that there was any intention of the
county , the city and the Board of Education
sharing the expense.
.Again , the petitioner had not brought the
proper suit. Ho had gene directly Into
court , when ho should have appealed from
the action of the Board of County Commis
sioners allowing thu claims , and that the
tlmo for such an appeal had passed.
In 18i7 there was a law passed providing
for the consolidation of elections , but as the
Judge had not inquired into that feature of
the case , ho could not state whether or not
the now law bad repealed tbo statute of 18S7.
Coupty Attorney Mahoney stated that his
understanding was that the supreme court
had hold that the law of 1SST was unconsti
tutional.
The Doiigluti Street ( Iruilo ,
In disposing of the Douglas street grade
case , Judge Hopawoll granted the Injunction
restraining the city from assessing dainaxos
and collecting bcnollts ,
The suit was brought against the city of
Omaha by George Warren Smith and others.
When Douglas street was ordered graded
from Sixteenth to Twentieth street , the connell -
ell passed an ordinance ordering that special
assessments bo levied against thu property
Mtuateu along the line of the intersecting
streets. The property owners appealed
from the award of the appraiser * and the
easa wont Into the courtwhoro it wasargueJ.
In rendering the decision Judco Hopowell
said : "Tho commission appointed by thn
council found damages In the um of | ; i-OX ) .
The statutes provide that damages arising
from change of grade shall not bo paid out of

"Tho plaintiffs further claim that the city
did not act legally , as It failed to give notice oi
the time and place of the sitting of the Board
of Equalization , the notice simply reading ,
'The board will sit on Monday , February 2
ISO . ' This notice was vague and uncertain.
"Tho notice should have specllliMl the tlmo
of the sitting of the board , and should
have named the parties whoso prop- ,
crty it was Intended to assess.
Even the assessment was not In accordance
with law , as some property was assessed for
damages or bonollts at J-'iOO while other prop
erty was assessed at f75 per front foot. It la
ovldent that tbo board assessed tbo property

The High School disc.
Tudpro frvino docldod the case of Df.Towno
against the J3oard of Education and ia doing
so , held that the Higb school building wa
only Intended for educating those pupils who
were in the higher branches. At the aarao
time ho denied the writ of mandamus , whloa
asked that the Control school bo removed
from tbo building. The suit was brought
curly last spring for the purpose above
stated. In passing upon tha case the court
said that ho was clearly of the opinion that
the Board of Education had no right to main
tain anything but the high school In tha >
High school building. It wns a loot
that bonds had boon voted , nnd before many
months the Central school would lie provided
for In a building of Its own. Ho thought that
the immediate removal of the Central school
would result In a great public inconvenience ,
much more so than to continue it in the High
school building for a few months , and for
that reason there was no urgent necessity for
granting the writ demanded.
Decided Against the KulIrimilH.
Judge ICoysor refused the r.ostralnlngordcr
asked by the Elkhorn and the Chicago , Bt.
Paul , Minneapolis & Omaha railroads that
the city t > Q onjolnod . from assessing
the railroad lots ana lands within
the city limits. The railroads held
that the assessment would result In a double
taxation as the assessment would bo made
bv both the state auditor and the city clerk.
The court thought not , as the city clerk had
niado his assessment and would certify the
result of his labors to the auditor , which
would nrovent the possibility ot a double ni-
sessmcnt.

Ing a paving tax. This case was brought
some time ago when tbo streets about Hans-i
