Gen. Harrissn's case strikes him as another of

dressed to him, eighteen or twenty letters beg
gng him in the most obsequious terms, to pay up
the amount of his defacations, yet still lie was

IN active use of his fingers, clutchiDg the pub

his Indebtedness to the Cove nment amounted to
100000. Even then he vas notturned out of Of

Political power oftentimes, like a wheel separ
ated from IFS axle, will maintain something like n
regular motion for n season beyond the cOntnu

cal Tower soou begins to feel its impetus weaken

There is n moral - mn ominous moral to be read
in the past history OF the PARTY now holding the
administration of the Federal Government III their
hands, developed in their past control over the
House OF Representatives and compared with the
present probable strength of that body.
In 1929, when the 2lst Congress was convened,
the strength of The Jackson party in the House
was so overwhelming that the Opposition could
scarcely rally TO support any man for Speaker

as to run several candidates for Speaker, having
only to contend among themselves. But Mr. Ste
venson was reelected without any party oppose
ton.
AT the opening of the 23d Congress in 1888, the
opposition began to rally again but Of the total OF
the votes thrown, 2l8, Mr. Stevenson, the admin
islration candidate received l42, being majority
of32 over all candidates.
In 1885, at the opening of the 2ith Congress, Of
224 votes, Mr. Polk had 1872 being 10 majority.

people is from to strong against the admins

Is there not in tins decline of party strength ar
