The Rush to Kansas and Colorado.

The indications are that the rush to Kan
sas and Colorado Will be greater than ever
i'll lo14. The shortest way to reach the far
West is through st. Louis, the great Missis-
slppi Valley City, of over 100000 inhabi-
tants, and thence west over the st. Louis
Kansas City and Northern Short Line, which
reaches ali the great land grants in the
West, and runs six fast express trains, two
more than any other road. between the Mis-
sissppi and Missouri .iVcrs. This road in
the last two years. has expended over two
million dollars. besides earnings in extraor-
binary improvements of roadway. in relay
ing its line with the best quality of new
steel and iron rails, on broad new ties. and
i'll passenger equipment, having substituted
for ordinary cars new reclining chair coach
es with every appliance for comfort and
safety, being elegantly fitted with dressing
rooms, with toilet convenienccS for ladies'
and gentlemen and families travelling with
children, free of any extra charge. Any
ticket agent selling through tickets to the
West will furnish tickets by this excellent
route through st. Louis over the st. Louis
Kansas City and Northern Short Line, the
best and shortest to Kansas Colorado, Ne
braska, California, and the Great West-it

The Vicksburg Daily Monitor

the oldest inhabitants on the banks

THE UNITED STATES SENATE.

According 20 present calculations
the Democracy will have about
eigln \ eight majority in the next
National House of Representatives,
but they will be wholly powerless
to pass any measures through Con
grrSS without the concurrence of Il
strongly Republican Senate. This
latter body, which l.. now conven' d
in extra session, is composed OF
fuIty-tour Republicans, twenty eight
Democrats, and one independents,
Newton Booth, OF California; This
gives the Republicans a clear maj :
Orlty of fifteen. So much for the
p, esent Congress whose time eX-
pres with that of the President,
March fourth, 1877.
How about the Senate commenc-
ing with taatsstime2 Upon examin-
alton We find that the terms of
twenty-One Senators expire March
! fourth, 1917 Sixteen of these are
Republicans and five Democrats
| Then il We take the vote of last fall
as basis OF estimate the Senate to
be ingaurated with the next Presi-
dent, will stand thIrty-fOur Demo
Gratis, thirty five Republicans, and
and independent. not counting the
contested seat of PinchbHck either
way. But it will be noticed that
! in this connt we give the Demo
cracy all the States they recently
carried, and thereby cOncede an
whelming Democratic triumph
III 1876, which is by no means prob
able. Such States as California,
Connecticut, Florida. Ohio, Oregon
and Pennsylvania, cannot be set
down as asSuredly Democratic. and
! if any two of them were to elect
Rep hlican Legi 'latures and re
turn Republican Senators whatever
the political complexion of the
House or the President, the Senate
wonld he thoroughly Republican,
and would hold an important posi-
ton bet ween the powers Of the new
Administration. Hence, we sug-
geSt to our very sanguine Democrat
ic brethren to go slow, and not feel
too sure that they have entire pos
session of .he Government. If the
.'tidal wave" should return, as it
bids fair to do somebody may get
