Republican majority in the House Of
Representatives, and, as soon as the
State Legislatures can take the neces-
sary action, there will be Republican
majority in the Senate.
Thus the new Executive, who will
take into his office craftsmanship and
an experience and an intellectual ability
that have never been surpassed by any
of his predecessors, will be supported
by q National Legislature acting in
harmony with him; and the country, in
the assurance of a permanency of the
policies of the past, will go on prosper
ing with that industry and enterprise
which have made the last four years of
our history so brilliant and glorious.
The election will convey a lesson to
the Democrats of the North and of the
South which they can study with profit.

The Religion of the PuebIOs.

The theology of the Pueblo Indians
has good deal of the fantastic in it, as
well as much that is actually abomina.
BILE. These Indians are generally called
sun worshipers, but they are pantheists
in every sense of the word. They wor-
ship the sun, moon, stars, rainbow, fire,
water, rivers, mountains, trees, stones,
snakes, bears and animals generally.
For all these, or their generic heads,
there are official priests, whose duty it
is to summon to their assistance subalt-
erns and as many of the people as are
necessary to observe the rites of that
particular deity. Many children are
dedicated to this service in infancy by
their parents, and many grown people
dedicate themselves. But whether they
are dedicated or give themselves, they
are thereafter under the full control Of
the power to whom they are dedicated.
Men and women have to leave their
families night and day for weeks, per-
haps, at time, closed up in dark back
rooms practicing the internal ineanta-
tions of their craft, and doing those
things which even the heather eye may
not be permitted to look upon. 1t is
from these places of darkness that the
most corrupting influences of heathen-
ism proceed; of these the most destruc-
tive to the present well-being OF the
people is unbridled RIGHTEOUSNESS.

Died Of Medical Etiquette.


A MR.. JOHN DRoMEY, of the firm of
Doherty & Dromey, booksellers, Cha
boillez Square, Montreal, died here on
Sunday last, and the conduct of some
medical men in connection with his ill
ness is considered very singular. DR..
Reid was first called on to attend the
patient, and he hepreseribed for him. Mr..
Dromey getting worse, DR.. Cameron
was subsequently, sent for, and he or
dered some medicine. On DR.. Reid
returning and finding DR.. Cameron had
been there, he left the house and re-
fused to have anything more to do with
the case. DIR. Cameron came a second
time and, learning of DR.. Reid's visits,
he declined, as matter of etiquette, to
act, the patient in the meantime getting
worse. Other medical men, it is stated,
were called on, but refused on the same
grounds as DIR. Cameron. In the mean
time Mr.. Dromey grew rapidly worse,
and died on Sunday without medical
man seeing him. Application was made
10 DR.. Cameron since the death for a
burial certificate, but he refused to give
it, stating that he had not attended the
deceased. DR. Reid refused at hrst to
give the certificate, but subsequently,
granted it.-IoroRto Nail.
