Democratic Contest for the Speak
ership in Congress.

Never in the history of this Govern
ment was there such disgraceful spec
tacle presented in the election Of pre-
siding officer for Congress as in the con-
test that closed last Monday in the cleo
ton of NJ. G. Kerr, of Indiana, for the
Speakership.
1t seemed as if the whole blackleg
and gambling fraternity of the country
had congregated at Washington to par
ticipate In the contest among the Dem
ocratc aspirants Tor the third Office in
rbe Nation. Wagers we're made, pools
were sold more openly than at gam
blers' horse race. Congress never be-
fore opened with such showing.
So much for the beginning of the
Democratic House. The whole spec
tacle looked as If that branch of the
Government was under the guardian
ship of gamblers. The ugly and inso-
lent element of the Democracy mani
tested itself disgustingly. What will
the legislation be like The people
got reform with a vengeance when they
elected that House.

William II, Tweed out of Jail.

William NJ. Tweed has left his quar-
ters in New York Jail and gone, where
his friends planned that be should go.
They call it an escape, and offer Sl0,-
coo for his capture. If the Sheriff is
compelled to pay the fine for derelic-
tion OF duty, and other officers are CON-
PEELED to pay for similar short eomings,
and the $40, 900 reward be piled on
top of it al, it will amount TO less than
S15, goo, mere nothing compared to
what the Boss has robbed the people of
that city. Tweed is worth millions of
money, all of which be made of the
city in some way or other. Who
knows that he has not arranged to pay
tie fines Of the Sheriff and others. If
he bad escaped as prisoners usually do,
there would be no suspicion about bis
leaving, but his prison life throughout
looks as il it was but course Of prep
aration for just such an eno. He was
allowed great privileges to dine at
restaurants, make calls, aud drive about
the city. 1t was a farce, worthy Of
the lame justice of New York.

Fraud Among the Claim Agents.

Three claim agency firms of Phila-
delphia have been, BY order of the Sec
retary of the lnterior, suspended from
practising before the Commissioner Of
Pensions at Washington. The causes
which led to this action on the part of
the authorities at Washington are al.
legged to be frauds perpetrated by the
attorneys on the government to facili-
tate their business before the Commits
sioner. The action of that officer in
-suspending these rascally attorneys has
the, effect Of suspending nearly ten
thousand cases, including both those
which have been adjudicated and upon
which payments have been made, and
those which are still pending before the
department. Because Of the corrupt
practices of these rogues, many just
claims will be placed in jeopardy. and
rom association with them, many claims
which would have been promptly al
lowed vii. now, in all likelihood, be
subject to vexatious delay, if not to
final rejection. If those who do evil
injured only themselves and their own
causes, it would not be a matter of
much account to the world what they
did or how they fel. into disgrace; but
when IN their downfall is involved the
ruin Of innocent and deserving persons,
the world is apt TO demand the speedy
and severe punishment Of the authors
of the ruin. We hope the officers of
the government will not rest content
with the suspension from practice of
these rascally pension attorneys, but
will follow them up until they are pun
ished to the extent Of the law, and
made an example to those whose incli-
nations bid fair to lead them to the per-
petration of like ofenses.-Harrisburg

Horrible story from Chicago,


Which the Chicago Times of the
2nd says created profound sensation
the day before, by the discovery OF the
bodies of a beautiful woman and female
infant packed in a barrel at Adams Ex-
press company's Office. The woman's
body was destitute of all clothing ex-
cept stockings. The bodies were taken
to the Morgue. The barrel was direct
ed to S. K Greene & Co., Iowa City,
Iowa
The truckman who took the barrel to
the express Office says he received it at
house near the CO ner of Twenty
fourth and Wabash avenue.
From all appearance the woman had
recently given birth to child. There
were few marks on the body, but
nothing to show how death ensued.
Later intelligence states that the body
Of the woman has been identified as
that of Mrs. Emma p. Adams, the wife
of a prominent hardware dealer Of that
city, who is at present liz New York
city.

New Marriage Contract.

DAUGHTER OF AN Ex-coSGREssMAS ENTERS
INTO a MARRIAGE CONTRACT WITHOUT The
INTERVENTION OF MSIsTER OR MAGIs-
TRATE.
| [From the Chicago Commercial.1
DETROIT, Nov. 26.-In the contest
over the woman suffrage constitutional
amendment in this State last year, ex-
Congressman Randolph Strickland was
quite conspicuous, acting as president
of the State Association part of the
time. His daughter also delivered a
series Of addresses upon the subject a,
different points in Michigan, displaying
considerable oratorical piquancy aud
force. Within the last few days many
of the people of St. Johns, in this
State, where her family resides, have
received printed copies of what was
termed contract, civil and conjugal,
entered into recently between Miss
Strickland and Leo Miller, the WE'LL
known Buffalo Spiritualist, beginning
"Tbe undersigned, this I'd day of No
vember, A. d. 1875, enter into busi-
ness partnership under the name Of
Miller & Strickland, on the following
conditions, to wit: That all earnings
and profits arising from our individual
and joint labors, whether In depart
ments Of literature, mechanics, agricul-
ture, or trade, shall be shared and held
equally" After next declaring that
love is the only binding law in the con-
jugal union of sexes, the contract pro-
ceeds: s.Should this uuiou be blessed
by offspring, We jointly aud severally
pledge ourselves, our assigns aud ad-
ministrators, to foster and support them
during the dependent years of infancy
and youth, supplying their physical
wants and rearing them in the princi-
Piles of virtue and knowledge, to the
best of our ability and judgment. y
This remarkable document concludes
with the declaration that its signers re-
pudiate the laws and customs which
men assume to make and control of an
affection between the sexes, which we
believe is and Of Divine right ought to
be free. Miss Strickland has also ad-
dressed some Woodhullian letters to the
St. Johns papers, declaring her revolt
against the legal bondage Of marriage,
which she says rests only on the princi-
pie of master and slave. Naturally
the course she has taken created no
slight excitement in the community,
where she has always been respected,
and this excitement has been naturally
stimulated by the appearance of the
following
CARD.
"We ask the sympathy of our friends,
in our sorrow for the course pursued by
our poor, deludeG, misguided, and in
sane daughter, and We extend our
thanks to the kind friends that have
labored with US during the last year so
earnestly TO save her. We bow our
heads in grief.
