The u 5 Senate

Ir Is strange that a statesman OF
Mr.. Faulkners astuteneSS, should not
preceive the manifest reasons, why II
would be bad move for him TO 81
into the Senate. In the first place,
against his election there is the objec-
ten of locality. 1t would be a great
outrage on the State, to take both the
Y. 5. Senators, from the eastern part
of the Eastern Panhandle.
But more important reason, Is
that it is too soon for him to 80 there.
We all know that the Senate Is in
many cases-a Statesman'S ultima
thule. butts man should not 60 there,
unless he feels that his career is
nearly ended.
Mr.. Faulkner is the only one of
the old Virginia Statesmen whO,-
to use his own words-has broken
through the crust, since he was cook
ed in the Confederate pie. He
is capable of distinguishing himself
greatly in his new Congressional ca
reer, if he takes his seat IN the house,
where he will have the support of a
Democratic majority, but if he goes
to the Senate, what can he accom-
plish? He will be at best only one
of minority, and no matter what
legislation he may be effective in pro
curing, no credit will rebound to him;
members Of a minority, receive no
credit.
But on the other hand, what may
&c not DO in the House?
If we examine the list of members,
We will find few who will possess the
talent, experience and purity Of Mr..
Faulkner; he would at once assume Il
leadership, and it will require no
small share of sagleity on the part Of
u Democratic House to effect any
good, while the Senate is Republican;
all that is done, will be extOrted by
fear of public opinion. We believe
that if Mr.. Faulkner takes his seat in
the House, he may aspire TO the
Speakers place; in the Senate, he
would settle down to a life OF hum
drum nothingness from which he
would subside into obSeurity.
Fhe party, the State and the coun
try, need Mr.. Faulkuer's ability and
his services in the House Of Repre-
sentatives, and it strikes US that he
is oyerstepping the mark, when he
saw, in effect, Il have stepped this
high. l believe I can 90 higher.
If he does not wish to serve in
tn House. let him resign his seat,
and aid in the election of some other
good Democrat lott, and then ask for
promotion, but not ask it before he
has shown what he Is, in the position
be now holds.

A SUPPLASrED HUSBAND STEPS
Down AND OUr.-,A man named
George johnson left his home and
family % yeas ago at Sheboygan,
and went to Utah. For a few yeas
correspondence was kept up, but
finally he ceased to hear from home,
or his family from him. Having
made handsome fortune, he returned
10 Sheboygan TO look up his family.
He found no trace of them, but learn
ed that a man named johnson had
removed from ShebOygan several
wears before To Fond du Lac. He
supposed that this was his brother,
and accordingly went to Fond du Lac
His surmise proved correct. Here
he learned that his wife was married
to a man named John Foster, and
was living in Oshkosh. He further
learned that his daughter had mar
ried son of Foster. He arrived
there, called on his wife, and her
feelings on seeing her husband, whom
she supposed dead, can be better
imagined than described. After re-
naming for a few DAYS, johnson took
his departure, leaving behind his
much-married spouse. Chicago. Times.

ONE MEMBER OF THE RETURNING
BOARD REFUSING 20 BE A PARTY TO
FRAUD.-NEw ORLEANS, Dec. "A -
To day Mr. Arroyo sent in his resig
nation as a member Of the Returning
Board. He says: Il am impelled tC
adopt the present course by the rel
ings of the board in the last few days
in returning to the Legislature, as
elected, members who were unmis
takably defeated-rulings which, t.
my mind, are so clearly partisan and
unjust, defraudiug the people OF
Louisiana OF their chosen representa-
tives, that my selt-respect will not
allow me to longer retain seat on
the board Mr.. Arroyo's resigna-
ton was accepted, and the board
vent into executive stssiOn.
THE RETURNING BOARDS DECISION.
The Returning Board deliberations
tlis evening resulted in a final decis-
ion regarding the parishes of Clai-
borne, Cadio, La Tourchs, Lincoln,
Rapides, and st. Martin.
The parishes of Grant, Vim, Bien-
vile, and De Soto were referred TO
the Legislature, that their several
cases may be adjusted.
The representation, returned by
the board, now stands Democrats 81
