The Vacant Speakership.

There is already considerable specula-
ton as to the successor of the late
Speaker Kerr, but there is little in the
Office to invite competition when the
election is merely to fill a vacancy. The
Speakership is, indeed, position of
great power and influence, but that is
only because he has the appointment of
the House committees. Stripped of this
power the Speaker would be political
cipher, like the Vice President, who has
no other function than that of a mere
presiding officer in the Senate. A
Speaker elected to fill vacancy after the
House is organized occupies similar
position. The committees selected by
Mr.. Kerr at the beginning of the late
session will hold their places through
out the existence of the Forty fourth
Congress, and his successor will merely
fill the few accidental vacancies that may
occur. This explains why Mr.. Randall,
who is the head of very important
committee, will not be a candidate for
the vacant Speakership, and why little
or no feeling will be exhibited in the
choice. The new Speaker will not be a
dispenser of important and influential
positions, and the choice of mere
presiding officer is not worth a struggle.
If the Chairman of a committee is
elected Speaker the member who stands
next to him will, b. usage and courtesy,
succeed him as Chairman of the COM
mittee, and the vacancy in the committee
be filed by appointing new member at
it's tail. Mr.. Sayler, who served &C
ceptably as Speaker pro tenn. during the
latter part of the expired session, has
probably the best chance for election as
Speaker when Congress meets in Deem
ber.-NeW York Herald.

The Coal Ring Broken.

The dissolution of the combination
known as the Coal Ring is an event
which will cause rejoicing everywhere.
A more gigantic wrong was never at
tempted. Six carrying companies sought
not only to monopolize the whole
business of transportation, but to
regulate prices and production without
regard to the interests of either produc-
e1s or consumers. For long time the
Lehigh Valley railroad held out against
the combination, but finally, in May
last, it was coerced into an agreement
with the others, and sent representa-
tive to the Board of Control. Now the
combination is broken because the same
road disregarded the terms of its agree
ment and continued to carry as much
coal to tide water as it's facilities would
allow. By way of reprisal the Hudson
Canal Company, the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna and Western railroad, and the
Philadelphia and Reading railroad will
sell five hundred thousand tons of coal
at auction in this city on Tuesday next,
and hereafter the price will be fixed by
an actual demand, not an arbitrary sup
ply. Under such conditions people will
naturally rejoice that the Lehigh Valley
railroad did not live up to the terms Of
of the agreement. York Herald.

that he desired none and would

The gentleman, however, inspite of his remon-
STRANGE went into the hail. summoned
servant, and ordered up some champagne.
Presently waiter came into the room with
glasses and bottles of champagne on tray,
and set them down upon the table. Mr.. Hayes
Immediately turned from the topic OF CONVEX
sation occupying those present, told the waiter
to remove the tray from the room without de-
lay, and remarked that he hoped the gentleman
who had ordered the wine would excuse him,
that he thanked him. but that it was IN direct
opposition to his principles to partake OF any
liquor at all, and especially so under present
circumstances. He said, Gentlemen, con-
slider my election to the Governorship worthy
of better celebration. / think it would be
well for us all instead of resorting to this kind
of convivialty, rather to consider well what
duties and responsibilities such an Office en-
joins upon me- With these few manly re-
marks the subject was dropped. This incident,
as it may appear, still shows I'M
the general bearing of the mans
character. Such conduct does not at least
belong to a weak man. whatever may have
been the advisability of the action"

The Metropolis of the Black Hills.

The Black Hills Pioneer, of Dead
wood, has the following on the develop
ment of that metropolis: 'On the 28th
of April, 1875, Deadwood City was laid
out and the lots become subject to loca-
ton. Since that time, phoenix like, our
city has sprung into existence, and with
degree of certainty can we look upon
her as city to be proud of to day, and
one we can rest assured of as being not
only to-day, but for years to come, the
metropolis of Lawrence county, organ
lied or unorganized. To-day the value
of the improvements already made in our
city will foot up not less than $50, 900,
not saying word regarding the value of
the lots themselves, which cost, in the
first place, the small sum of $3.50 each.
Taking the price paid for unimproved
lots sold in the past few days, we are of
the opinion that the actual cash valua-
tion of the real estate OF Deadwood City
will exceed 800, 1000, and the city is yet
an infant, being just three months old. :"

The POstOffice and the Railroads.

For the first time in the history of
mail transportation in this country Con-
gress, at it's last session, separated the
appropriations for inland mail transport
alton, so as to provide an appropriation
for service by railroad separate and apart
from that on other routes. For star SER
vice-which is service of all kinds except
that performed by railroads-an ample
appropriation was provided, but it was
very meager for railroad service. The
Postmaster General is, therefore, unable
to order any service on new railroads.
Application was made to-day by the
Southern Pacific railroad for an order to
carry the mails OF an extension between
Caliente and Andrews station, which
would cost about $4,000. The mails
are now carried by star route at cost
of nearly 500, 1000. By transfer from
star-route to railroad saving OF about
$4,000 could be accomplished; but
there is no money to be paid for the
railroad service while there is an ample
appropriation to pay for the other, and
consequently the transfer cannot be
made without violation of law Wash

TILDEN AND THE RING.

" This (the alleged
forged circular) was in
1868. subsequently the
ring, perhaps beginning
their corrupt practices at
that time for aught I
know to the contrary,
became so powerful in
New York that they
threatened to drive out,
and succeeded in driving
out, almost every decent
man from the Democratic
party of that city,"
"Gov. Tilden for more
than three years, like a
sleuth-hound upon the
scent, followed these pee
pie patiently, secretly,
diligently, spending that
money of which the gen
tleman from Iowa thinks
he is so parsimonious,
with a most liberal
hand"

these people to their dens
of iniquity and finally
dragged them forth to
public execration."

is this, there was war,
war to the knife, between
Gov. Tilden and Tweed. Z"

Whence All This Water?

Gen. William Spoy Smith wants to
know the cause of the present extraordi-
nary quantity of water in the upper
lakes. He finds that the water-level of
Lake Huron on the 10Th inst. was just
two feet nine and one-fourth inches
higher than it was on the 29th Of April,
1872. This difference, he says, is about
the average rainfall per annum through
out the area occupied by the lake. The
same data appear as to Lake Michigan.
The Illinois Central railway engineers
state that the average water-level this.
summer is about two feet eight inches
higher than Il has been before.

The Way Gov. Hayes Thought Most Fit
TO Celebrate his Election.

The following anecdote is told by the
Cleveland correspondent of the Providence
Journal: In the fall of last year, directly
after his successful campaign for the Governor
ship, Mr. Hayes CHANGED to be in Cleveland in
attendance upon some important duties in con-
nection with the recent campaign. After sup
per, he and several of his political friends re-
tired to his own apartment to talk over recent
events and, of course hearty congratulations
were given him from all. In the course OF the
evening some one suggested the expediency of
calling for some champagne to rightfully cele-
brate his recent election. Mr.. Hayes remarked

A New York Tragedy Called to Mind.

Daniel Mcfarland, the slayer of
Richardson, turned up in Chicago few
days ago. After his release from the
Penitentiary he went to Colorado, where
he has been living for the past two years.
His friends have tried to assist him, but
he seems to be unable to do anything
for himself. Since his arrival in Chica-
go he has been living on the charity of
some of his old friends and acquaint-
ances. Last evening he was discovered
by policeman crawling into a window
of law Office at 80 Washington street.
He was taken to the armory on suspicion
of being burglar, but he produced the
key of the Office, and said that he had
been sleeping there for the last few
nights, but that he could not open the
door. He was placed in the witness
room to sober off. Chicago Times.

MANY Englishmen are fond of keeping
up their family wealth and so believe in
the rights of primogenitare. Sir James
Hogg, who died In London recently,
leaving 81, $50, 900 personal property be-
sides real estate. after giving bis six
other children from sS25, 1000 to $50, 900
each, directed the bulk of his property
to be laid out in the purchase of freehold
estate, to be settled on his eldest son and
heirs male.

Official Telegraphy in England.

The British Government telegraph has
been investigated. by a new committee
of the treasury, and we hence have fresh
and definite statements OF its success as
a commercial undertaking. The total
capital plant, which was expected to be
not over $4,000, 900, is already 910,-
OH, 10000, and 100000 more has been
asked for at this session. The gross and
net revenues compares as follows:
1901. &c 100000 e296, 900
1s74-75 ,123,700 $4,000
1876. L 250,OOO $4,000
Hence there has been great growth, both
in the business and expense of doing it.
The revenue of the private companies,
if the average rate per message had been
cut down from so cents to IS, would
probably have increased as much. In
the year just closed, there was great
retrenchment in expenditure, and hence
net revenue was saved equal to about
p per cent. on the capital invested.
