'For many years I was afflicted with a

Irritate tho sore so that I could hardly

AT THE NATIONAL CAPITAL.
When tho record Is carcfullv gono
over, it wilt bu seen that the llfty.fifth
congress," now gono to join tho groat
army of hns-becus, did muehmoro that
was worthy of commendation than was
open to censure Its total of appro
prlations mueli more than a billion
and a half of dollars was at ilrt
glance startling, but war Is expensive
and river and harbor and public bulb'-
inp appropriations are popular, in tho
neighborhoods whero tho money is
spent, as' well as in neighborhoods
which hope, to secure similar ones
jhoi'vnftqr.- Con'gross, with almost its
last breath, mado u play that U little
short.of childish". It U contained in thu
naval' 1111; vhlali providos for the
building of--battle-ships and at tho
linn time makes it Impossible to build
them, by providing that no nioro tlui'i
8300 per ton fcluijl be paid for armor,
and that no contract ,for the' hlrs
shall bo made until" contracts' fur. the
armor have been Hindu. When the bill
wont from sonato to conference,
authorized the construction of ti gov
eminent armor plant a bluff at the
armor makers if tho ormor could not
bo bought nt tho prico named, but that
clause was struck out in conference,
leaving tho wholo thing an absurdity.
Nothing connected with tho closing
hours of congress gavo pleasure to a
greater number of persons than the
confirmation of tho new naval promo
tions sent to the scnato on tho last day
of tho session, which mado Schley a
rear admiral two numbers ahead of
Sampson, instead of two numbers be
hind him, ns the first promotion sent
in, which the seuato hung up, would
have made him. Public opinion some
times gets on the wrong side, but in
this ciiho it was right from tho first,
an 1 it is responsible for tho action of
tho sonato, which brought before the
public facts that compelled tho admin
istration to reverse the action of the lit
tle clique of the navy department,
which had inveigled the secretary of
thu navy into making recommenda
tions not justilied by tho records.
"All's well that ends well," but this
case might nut have ended well if pub
lic opinion hiid not raised a fog. Ev
erybody also rejoiced when Dewey was
made a full admiral, but it should have
been done tho first hour of thu session
of congress, instead of in ono Of tho
Inst.
The little verso which was incorpor
ated in the farewell speech of Senator
Wilson of Washington, who jiliuul
Souator Warren of Wyoming, in pro
testing against thu treatment appropri
ations for the west received in tlio con
ference on tho river and harbor bill,
especially that providing for irrigation,
which was dropped with others, will
not soon be forgotten, owing to its apt
ness. Mr. Warren said the westerners
were represented by tho young goose
and tho easterners by tho old goosu In '
this verse;
"Tho young gooso wluketh, wlnkcth, wink
fih,
Tlio old nooo bllnkctb, bllnketh, bllnkoth,
Hut the young kooso never ran tell
What the old goose thlnkctb, thlnkcth,
thlukcth."
The announcement of Representative
Bailey, mado becattso the house re
fused to consider tho resolution declar
ing thu seals of the four rupresenta
popularity of "Fighting Joo" Wheolor
urned tha scales aarninst taking it up.
When tho sonata by a voto of 47 to 11
adopted Senator Foraker's amendment
to tho army bill, declaring that no
property franchises or concessions
of any kind should bo granted in Cuba
during United States occupation of the
island, it served notlco upon u bordo
of schemers that they would got no
help from this government in their ef
forts to get somothlng for nothing in
Cuba.
Tlio anti-Nicaragua canal lobby won
its light after all. Tho canal legisla
tion that was iiually agreed to in con
ference, will leave the matter at the be
ginning of tlio next session of congress
just about whom it was at tho begin
ning of tho session just ended. The
fridnds ol the canal fought hard for
legislation that would at least author
ize tho beginning of tho work, express
ing willingness to accept a small ap
propriation as a stmt, but thu power
aud wealth of tho lobby was too much
for them. The legislation adopted
merely authorizes tho president to ap
point a commission of engineers, to be
composed of olllclulsor civilians, in his
discretion, to investigate thu Nicar
agua and Panama canal routes and as
certain upon what terms thu go em
inent etui obtain control ot either of
them, and request the president to rec
ommend legislation, based on tho re
port of the commission, to the next
congress. This legislation was ob
tained by a united lobby maintained by
tlio l'ltnauia canal eompiny and tho
New York syndicate that claims to
have a concession for tho Nicaragua
canal. To prevent legislation was mut
ually beneficial to these parties, but
from now on they will bu working
