Retreat trumpt never call[*Springfield [?] June 3d*] THE NEWS FROM WASHINGTON. IDAHO AND WYOMING MUST WAIT. ADMISSION NOT LIKELY AT PRESENT. Eastern Senators Not Yet Ready for Such Action - Representatives to Talk Tariff in Philadelphia - Silver and Canteen Debate in the Senate - The Grant Monument. From Our Special Correspondent. WASHINGTON, D.C., Monday Evening, June 2. There is a tacit understanding in the Senate that the bills for the admission of Idaho and Wyoming will not be considered at this session. The two measures are now on the calendar but before they can be taken up the silver bill and the tariff bill will first be considered, and if the House passes the national election bill, that, too, in all probability, will be disposed of before any attention is given to the statehood bills. The truth is, the eastern senators - notably those from the middle and New England states, notwithstanding their republican affiliations and the further fact that the two new states will both be republican in politics -are looking a little coldly upon the proposition to give to two territories, with an aggregate population of less than 200,000, four votes in the United States Senate. The argument of the eastern senators is that the people in these proposed new states are diametrically opposed to their eastern brethren on the two great economic questions of tariff and finance. Moreover, they regard it as an injustice that 200,000 persons in Wyoming and Idaho should, through their four representatives in the United States Senate wield the same influence that the four senators from New York and Pennsylvania do with a population of 10,000,000 behind them. Feeling thus it is regarded as unlikely that the eastern senators will use any especial effort to bring about the passage of the admission bills. It is possible that political consideration may induce the republicans to admit the new states at the next session of Congress, but their prospects for this session are thought to have gone a glimmering.ONE DRUNK! It has been decided by the House that one drunk a year is the extent to which the law of the Commonwealth should accord leniency to the man who puts an enemy into his mouth to steal away his brains. Mr. Eldredge, of Chicopee, presented the bill, and it was adopted by a vote of which the yeas had a majority of seventy. The provisions of the bill are that any person found drunk in a public place, and who is not committing a breach of the peace, is to be arrested, and either taken to his home or kept in custody in some suitable place until he has recovered from intoxication. This is at once considerate and philanthropic. If, after all of this kindness, he should go on a second drunk within twelve months from the date of his first drunk, he is, upon conviction, to be sentenced to imprisonment for not less than ninety days nor for more than two years. The authorities are to treat him with loving kindness in the first instance, and with exemplary severity in the second. In view of these facts, and in order to simplify matters for both the drinkers and the authorities, it would not be a bad idea to systematize the business and set apart one day in the year for a general drunk, just as days are set apart for other anniversaries. The annual drunk would thus be accomplished simultaneously, and the trouble of hunting up records would be saved; for all drunks except those permitted on drunk day would be illegal. It is true that many would object to such a plan, and would prefer to choose their own day for availing themselves of the kind permission extended to them by the House to fill themselves with liquor free of all risk, provided they do not commit a breach of the peace. There is much to be said on both sides of the question; and meanwhile, the interesting fact remains that one drunk a year is a privilege that has been extended to every citizen of the Commonwealth, by the House. Verily, we live in a progressive era, and Massachusetts is in the van of progress. O brothers, is it generous or just [*insert*] That you should crush our helpmeet in the dust? Give her the ballot, and as sure as fate She'll help us steer to port the ship of state. Mrs. Livermore [*??*] "What a Woman Should Be" is Mrs. Chant's topic for tonight at Sleeper Hall, and there are plenty of people in Boston ready to say that she is her own most admirable illustration of her subject. The way crowds flock to hear her talk proves more, however, than that she has extraordinary charm and inspiration of utterance. It proves that the things she has to say and says with so much purity of diction, so much beauty of language, are the things which people are eager, thirsting to hear. After coming away from under the spell of her speech, one may take time to reflect upon her literary quality, the neat incisive style of her speech, the no-nonsense and no-twaddle of her immense earnestness. We have been bored to death here in Boston by the preachy quality of some of the visitors who come to tell us what to do and how to do it. Mrs. Chant has none of it. She is the highest voice of the time; she expresses what everybody is thinking in the depths of thought and is herself effaced. When she tells of the things she has done in the active work of enforcing the laws in aid of social purity, there is absolutely none of the glorification of the ego in the story of beautiful helpful things done for unfortunate women. These things she tells to show the power of sympathy and love from women towards women. The old-fashioned saying that a woman is a woman's worst enemy is already regarded in Boston as an antiquated Noah's ark sort of a notion, suitable to primitive times or to that small part of the body social which holds itself apart from the penetrating, intense earnestness of reform work of the highest sort. Mrs. Chant's visit to Boston is of immense influence in emphasizing the modern certainty that women are really women's friends, especially when in direct need they most require understanding friendship. She speaks upon topics of social purity with perfect singleness of purpose, with exquisite and holy common sense. by FRANCIS R.
