no man more f:. Hon. Samuel Swift IL pre-

is no more than right that We should know

bequcath to us our beautiful town The
longer this matter is delayed, the more diff.

CONGRESSIONAL DRAM DRINFINo. Just
before the close of the last session of Con-
gress, the following very genteel paragraph
went the rounds of the newspaper press, "By
authority Of the Vice President, the refresh
ment saloon near the senate chamber has
been closed. 1t was found to promote per.
sonal difficulties, besides retarding the trans.
action of business"
Who would suppose this polite notice
meant that the Vice President of the United
States found that Senators we're accustomed
to get drunk enough to fight, and too drunk
to work, and was compelled to "prohibit"
the saloon where they bought their liquors.
fprohbilion be necessary for the protec-
