WASHINGTON, November Gth.-The
fact that the Democrats will control
the organization of the next House of
Representative has brought into ac-
tive labor large number of candidates
for the various positions to be filled in
that body. The amount of patronage,
however, is so small and the applicants
are so numerous that the prospects of
large numbers being disappointed is
quite evident. The places to be filled
are as follows: The Clerk of the House
has AZ persons on his rolls, the Ser
geant-at-Arms two, the Doorkeeper 26
and the Postmaster 10. There are 2S
common clerks, making total of 114
which will enable the Democrats to
reward three of their party in each
State in the Union.
