yEU ORLEANS LEGLSL1T TURF.

A special despatch TO the Boston Globe briefly
summed up the situation at New Orleans upon the
meeting of the legislature:
New Orleans, January AT y o'clock, to-day
the Legislature asst nlbled and the House was
called to order by the former clerk Fifty Dem
ocrats and fifty two Republicans answered the
roll. A motion was made and put from the floor
declaring Mr.. Wiltz the Democratic nominee
for temporary Speaker Of the House, and also
for sealng The Den ocratic contestants OF Re
publican seats. All the motions were declared
carried. The Republicans protested against
this action as beng irregular. The statute pro-
vides thai The clerk shall preside until the speaker
is chosen. ON call OF Governor Kellogg, Cen
De Trobriand moved the Thirteenth Infantry into
he State House, and, with file OF soldiers unseat-
cd the democratic contestants who had just been
seated. The military remained and kept the
peace, while the clerk, Vlgers, called the roll.
Mr. Hahn was then elected speaker, whercupon
Mr. Wilt voluntarily surrendered the gavel and
With his party Withdrew from the state house.
There was much excitement, but nobody was
hunt. Congressman Potter was present during
the coup-d-e'tat by Mr.. WIZ and discountenanc-
ed such proceedings. He declared that Wilt
could not lawfully hold the position and would
harm the democratic cause. Gov. Kellogg mes
SAGE was read in both branches Of tle legislature

THE TILTOy-BEECHER CASE.

New York, January 4, 1915. The Tlon-Beech-
er scandal case has again suffered another post
ponement. 1t was set down for hearing before
Judge Nelson at two o'clock by mutual consent
of counsel, but as Judge McCue is understood to
be friend of Mr.. Beecher, his counsel, with the
intention Of getting AIcCue to try the case, APP
peared in Court at an early hour this morning and
made every cndeavor to open the trial, notWith-
standing Tison's counsel were absent. In this
they partly succeeded, as the case was formally
called, and aftsr some argument by counsel on
both sides set down for trial at II O'Clock to-mor-
row, Although it was generally believed the trial
would not commence to-day, the count room was
densey crowded by lawyers, clergymen aad OH

McLue will preside, unless prevented by stipula-
tons between the counsel.

MEETING OF THE LEGIsLATURE.

NE q 4 Az " VI IN LIZ 1919 SAsA't
The Fifty-fourth Legislature oithe State
of Maine will assemble and organize to-
day. The attendance will be full and the
organization harmonious.
The subject which will be most promi-
nent during the opening days OF the SEES
sion, is that OF the election of United
States Senator for six years from the fourth
of March next. Owing to the fact that
there are several republican candidates in
the field, and that bitter, personal and I'M
lust attacks have been made upon Sena-
tor Hamlin, the election of Senator will be
the absorbing theme until it is settled.
The conspiracy among leading democrats
to aid in the defeat of Mr.. Hamlin, hop
ing if they could succeed to thereby dlsor-
ganize and overthrow the republican par
ty, is a movement that adds interest to the
situation. In another article we speak
more fully upon this point.
There will be, without doubt, sufficient
business before the Legislature to employ
it the usual length of time, although nc
subjects for legislation have yet attracted
much attention or excited much discussion
The capital punishment question is a.
prominently mentioned as any topic, ane
will probably be pretty thoroughly
handled. Railroads assume no particular
prominence at present. but the session
will hardly end without demonstrations il
regard to them of importance. The con
dition OF temperance affairs appears to b'
so satisfactory that little if any Legislation
is necessary in that direction. There arr
many minor subjects that will be brongh
to the attention of the legislature for &c
ton, but upon the whole. after the cleo
ton of United States Senator the business
of the session will cause no special excite
ment, unless present appearances are de
ceitful.

the Chemistry of the Stomach.

As ia the more delicate processes of the labora-
tory 1t Is essential that the reagents employed to
produce chemical changes in matter should be un.
contaminated so also 1t is impcratvely sary
that the fluids oi the stomach, which act chemically
upon the food, should be perfectly pure. When the
stomach is acid, it is because these fluids are ytiat-
ed or diluted Similarly, ohe, forms of indigestion
arise rom deficiency oj the chemical properties
of the gastric juices. The most direct and agrcea-
bic WY TO res orc their purity and improve their
quality, Is to take before each meal wiuegassinl

ity, render digestion complete and painless, and

SPEAKER BLAME.

The Chicago Tribune has very able
article on The Leadership Of the next
House, The following is its conclusion
ave believe that the way 10 the leader
ship of the Republican side of the next
House is clear for Mr. James G.. Blaine,
and we are inclined to think that he will
be able to render better service in this ca
pacity than he has as Speaker ofthe House.
He will step to the front with an unsullled
reputation. great popularity, pleasing adj
dress, great ability, and vast experience.
His knowledge OF parliamentary law will
enable him to keep the Republicans in
the line of rule and precedent which the
Democrats will be constantly ignoring and
violating. This alone will be invaluable
in checking the propensities OF Demo
cratic House. made up largely of inexpe
rienced men, to rush wildly into all sorts
of schemes. Mr.. Blaine will likewise be
stimulated by the desire TO retain on the
floor a position corresponding to that
which the Republicans gave him when
they were in the majority. We therefore
expect good results from Il Republican
minority in the next House. Among the
advantages which will aerue to the Re
publicans as direct result OF their defeat
! is the transfer of Mr.. Blaine from the
Speakers chair TO the floor OF the House.
A powerful minority, enjoying the adyan-
tages of his experience and counsel, Will
be able to do the country more substan-
tial good than The present Republican ma
jorty while pulling away at cross-pur'
poses.

the republicans of other States who look
to the future welfare and success Of the
party, all desire his reelection; we are
for him because his name is indissolubly
linked with the fame and the honor of the
State. To defeat him would be lastin 9

LOUISIANA INVESTIGATION.

There seems to be a prospect that the
mystery of the Couskatta outrage will
be soon explained. Mr.. 7. W. Abney,
3 leading Democrat of that parish, was
put up by the Conservatives as awitness
TO convince Mr.. Hoar's committee that
there had been no violence or intimidation
in his part of the State. Mr.. Abney
read long, palavering statement, pre-
viously prepared, stating the White
League side of the case, and several
times while making explanations of
certain passages used the word "we"
when speaking of the White League.
Mr.. Frye, of the Committee took notes and
on the cross-examination wound up Mr..
Abney in about twenty minutes so eff
fectually that that the witness had con
victed himself of being the leader of
the gang which murdered Twitchell,
Devices and colored Republicans. So
Mr.. Abney is put under bonds of So, 900
to appear before the next term of the
United States District Court, and war
rents have been issued for the arrest of
the gang, whose names Abney has given
under oath, 1t isnot often that witness
manages to hoist himself so thoroughly
with his own petard as Mr. Abney has
done.-T Cleveland Leader.
