pay, only contains lac strnight Republicans,
or one short of majority over all. There
are Grconbnckers, Rsadjusters and

which will give them ton majority. The

candidates for Speaker. So it is evident
that not much progress is yet made in the

but the truth is that none can give any es

their respective States.
