Globe-Democrat:-''The papers are
asking what congressman have made
the most reputation during the session
now drawing to close. We respect
fully but earnestly put in a claim Tor the
three members from St. Louis. They

had not been for the independent move,
mant in the second district. fostered by

In answer to several inquiries We
will say that no bill has passed this
congress granting pensions to Amer
lean soldiers who fought in the Mexican

favored such n law, informs us that
there is no probability that it will pass
at his session.

f. A. SEMINARY. June !, 1873.

h. A. SEMINARY, June q, 1916.
Hon. W. T. Woop My Dear Friend: Il
should be very calIous, indeed. lid J not highly
appreciate the very iattering and unexpected
compliment which you have paid me. regard
1t all the more highly because it not only comes
from osa who has been highly honored III this
state for forty years.. but who has had from the
tuition of his own daughter, ample opportunity
TO observe the workings of our system.
I, will, perhaps. not be indeiicate for me to
say that our seminary is organized with q view
to supply "A need in the west. by afording I'm OPP
portnniiy for u more extended course and more
thorough culture than is usually given. The
peculiari,ies of our system winnow out the IN
comnetept in the race for honor and thus enforce
the maxim of Lord Nelson's motto, 'Patmdns
qui meruif Tesat."
Blessed with good teachers and sympathizing
friends, the future of the seminary seems to be
cheeringly hopeful.
With great respect. yours.

The cry of revolution will probably
now be stopped since the house judiciary
committee has decided that the forty
fourth congress was the properly con-
stituted body to u the vote and de-
clare the result of the presidential
election. and that no subsequent con-
gress has power to revise the action
thus taken; nor a congress confer
powers upon the supreme court.'o up
on any other tribunal to reopen the
questions which have thus been settled"
There is but one way by which MIR.
Hayes can be lawfully removed, and
that is by impeachment for high crimes
and misdemeanors. when he would be
tried by the senate in regular form, and
| the action would be no more revolution
airy than was the impeachment OF An
drew johnson; nor would the person
arralgned have half the sympathy that
existed in that case, should it be shown
that he has been guilty of crime. As
we said last week. the threatened revo-
luton is a myth, and it is fast vanishing
into thin air.
