Speaker Blaine and the Forty-thlrd
Congress.

The Washington Capital lately dis
cussed In q column and q half edit.
orial the political prospects and po-
sltion of Speaker Blaine. 1t declares
that the difficulties of organization In
the Forty.third Congress will DO Of no
ordinary magnitude, and says:
Old leaders OF, the House OF Rep
resentatlves may have become to some
extent enfeeblcd by tho disclosures Of
tile last session, but they have not been
killed. They are able men, influen.
tial among their colaborers, with the
motive before them Of the salvation OF
their own political lives, which will
stimulate them to II degree Of vigil
lance and activity. II the cause Of
Mr.. Blaine would sutfer discredlt
through n joinder Of Interests with
these parties, It would incur extreme
danger from their opposition. II com-
PEELED to die they will die hard, aud
there Is no telling the magnitude Of
the commissions which will attend
their dissolution. Tho article con-
cludes: This makes the present con-
dillon Of affairs with the organization
OF Congress interesting as a spectacle.
1t Is not to be wondered at that MIR.
Blaine is willing to evade the dilemma
which presents horns so formidable to
his encounter. 10 decline the candi-
dacy to the Speaksrship would be
counted an act Of cowardice ; TO fall
In election would be thres-fold misery.
The future political life Of u strong and
fiercely ambitious msn hangs upon the
day or two which follows the assem-
bling Of Congress next December.

A NECESSARY N

The Washington correspondent Of
the New York Tribune says "that In
formation from competent sources Is
to the effect that the Senate will imme-
diately OIL meeting In December re-
lieve Senator Carpenter from Its Pres
idency pro tempore, and probably elect
In his place Senator Ferry of Michi-
gan. who was his strongest competitor
last Spring. The reasons for Mr.. Car
penter's retirement are Of the most OBJ
vious aud generally understood char
acter." That most urgent and conclu-
sive reasons for a change In the Presi.
dency OF the United States Senate ex-
ist. Is well known to all who have
kept themselves at all posted In regard
to the attitude and late action Of the
present incumbent. Senator Carpen-
ter Of Wisconsin, now holds that high
position, and disgraces it by so doing.
Que Of the foremost demagogues In
the nation, brilliant In intellect, but
dspraved In habits. an apologlst for
Credit Mobilisr criminals, and the de-
fender of the principle that the pur-
chase Of Senators and Representatives
Involves no criminality either In the
vendor or vendee, a back pay grabbist
and champion Of that dastardly breach
Of public trust, an avowed servant Of
monopoly, and engineer Of legislation
In favor Of special Interests, aud lastly.
the theme Of a scandal notorious aud
inexcusable, which has been publicly
proclaimed throughout the country
and Is not disputed, this man Is a dis
grace to himself. to his friends, to the
United States Senate, Of which he Is
unhappily a member, to the State
which no represents therein and to the
Republican party. The elevation OF
such men to high places may be ex-
cused, but their retention In the face
OF such a record rs Carpenter has
made, Is al Insult to tho nation and a
criminal injury to the Republican
party. Let the Senate OF the United
States at once endesvor to regain
somewhat Of Its earlier respect and
standing by trampling under foot such
unfit representatives Of its organiza-
ton. In this way only can It hope to
be the revered and trusted tribune
which "a contemplated In Its Forms
ton. Such met as Carpenter should
have no prominent place In that body.
II by fortune or fraud they obtain a
seat therein, they should be irowned
upon by reputable members and their
influence restricted to the utmost
limit. They disgrace the theory Of
our Government, cast filth over all the
traditions Of II earlier history. aud
turn the highest legislative body In the
nation into a political lazar-house
filled with disgusting csrcasses aud
leprous jewellers. They pollute the
people, shock public decency and pol
son politics.

The successful fight here on Friday
night between White and Fugate
which resulted In the killing Of both,
secms to have stimulated the Chinese
IT, this vicinity to perform heroic deeds
worthy Of mention. On Saturday two
Chiuess companies near Camp Is. en-
gagged in wood chopping, got into .
serious quarrel. Clubs and sticks Of
wood were used between the enraged
combatants who numbered about twen-
ty. Unfortunately there were no re-
volvens or other deadly weapons
among the Chinese, else we should
have been able to lay before u readers
an item of no mean Importance. A
wagon load Of the wounded, some ten
or Twelve In all, were brought up OH
Saturday afternoon to receive surgical
assistance. Some had an arm broken,
while nearly all suffered from bruises
caused ny a too free use Of wood. Our
Informant says that over a cord OF
wood and pine knots were wasted In
the fight. None Of the celestials were
killed, and all those wounded will be
ready to fight again In II few weeks.
Only one CGinaman has been arrested
thus far, and his trial will take place
on Friday next.
A report was circulated at an early
hour last evening that y attempt would
be made by certain disreputable charac-
tiers to set fire to the frame dwellings
on Jibboom street. It seems that some
thing like q threat or intimation OF the
kind was made by certain cyprians
living OH the same street who were
about emigrating to other quarters,
and who actually did leave during the
night. The rumor caused considerable
excitement. Had there been a fire,
and the incendlary been identified,
there would have been summary pro-
ceedings not provided for or contem-
plated In the Civic or Criminal Code.

GENERAL ITEMS.

An astonishing game Of billiards
was played OH Monday night In CHI
cago. The players were George Slos-
son and John Bessenger, both OF that
city. The game was with four balls
OIL a carom table, 1000 points up, for
a stake Of $3.50 a side, and was won
by Slosson In fourteen innings, scor-
Ing 2,0ol to Bessenger's el6. The

tifty minutes. Slosson's largest runs
were, 1863 In his second, 444 in his
third and 53l In his sixth inning. His
average was l42 1914. This is the
most remarkable game on record.
SENATORS Logan and Wright, ex-
Senator Harlan, and Representatives
Palmer and Orr are announced to take
the stump for the Republican ticket In
Iowa.. Each Of these gentlemen has
pocketed his back pay, and 1t will be
curious to see how he can support q
ticket which stands upon a platform
vigorously denunciatory Of tho Grab.
Perhaps a few direct questions like
those applied to Senator Morton In
Ohio will convince these gentlemen Of
the error Of their ways, and prompt
them to follow Nj. Morton's example.
Nlanr before last at Elko, Nevada,
an Englishman named Frank Grafton,
discharged a Smith & Wesson navy re.

ball first passed through the partition
and entered the right side Of the
rancher's neck a little below the right
ear. passing entirely through the neck.
There are little hopes Of his recovery.

johnson was taken to the Chester County Aims
House, where he died q few days after, and Jury
OF inquest gave it their verdict that he came to
his death from wounds received by being shot with
a gun in the hands of Daniel Jones' Since then,
Jones has eluded the law until last evening, when
he fell prey to the above named officer.
Yesterday morning SheIlft Gill vltited the scene
of Jones late haunts, aud made inquiries as Ia
where the fugitive was supposed to be. The peo-
pie signied their belief that he could be arrested
