The following extract from letter dated
the 18th ult, will give an idea o. the comforts
OF ranch life in Nebraska this winter:
I'VE are literally showed In. The creek is
drifted level full, and we drive right over even
with the banks. The snow has dritted on the
east side or the stable, so that we walk from
the middle OF the corral rigat over the top OF
the stable. The loss OF stock must be heavy, as
the last storm was simply terrible. We are
clear out OF proyislons-lived for three days on
corn bread, coffee and beans. That did pretty
well-beat nothing all TO nothing; but those
supplies got all any MORE and we were In q
pretty nix. A neighbor, however, let me have
TWO bushels OF wheat, and l set the boys TO
work On the coffee mill So now We have brown
bread and biscuit l tell you they are boss I
have discharged all the boys. and they are
1cOrhtag Jor their board until the weather will
allow them to leave"

cACcUsEs OF BOTH PART1Es-THE DEMOCRATS
FAVOR IMMEDIATE REORGANIZATION; THE KE-
PUBLICANS DO NOT.
Ine democratic and republican Senator's both
held caucuses to day. The republicans met n
caucus in the forenoon, and talked over the
organization OF the Senate. The universal
opinion was that II the democrats attempted
Immediate organization while four republican
seats are vacant, IL would be taking an unfair
advantage, " hiCh the republicans ought to re
slst as far as they can, legittmately and proper-
ly. lt was stated that the successors to Sena-
tors kirkWood and Window would reach Wash
lDgton In i've or six days, as both Will
legislatures not being In session: thai
the successors OF Mr.. Blaine and the late
Senator Carpenter would reach here by Lnt
latter part OF next week; that the committees
could hot be properly organized until tapse
vacancies are fllIed, and therefore the orgaai
1ation should rightly be deferred until the ) IN
ate is full. Immediately after the adjourn
ment OF the Senate
THE REPUBLICAN CAUCUS
reassembled, when IL was announced and uoon
the best authority attainable that The demo-
crats nad determined TO go on ana org ganz Al
once. This proposed action was condemu d
and suggestions were made that the Presid uT
DE waited upon, advised or the purpose of lc
democrats, and urged TO hold back such ousl
ness as he NAV have for the Senate Until the
republican vacancies can be filled.
AN EXTRA SESSION
OF congress was also talked or 1t was inti-
mated that Ii the democrats play grab
game" In the Senate, The republicans can fully
retallate by influencing, II possible, an extra
session or Congress, Which would certainly give
them the House and all It's patronage, and very
PROBABLY give them the Senate Tue necessity
OF funding bill was spoken OF as good reason
1Or an extra session OF Congress. TIE repuo-
lican caucus then adjourned TO await further
action by the democrats
THB DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS
determined TO move promptly In organization.
The caucus committee to form Senate commit
tees was not ready to report. and the caucus
adjourned till tomorrow. The caucus COM
m1ttee was In session nearly all this afternoon
1x1Dg up the Senate committees, and will re-
port 10 the caucus tomorrow morning. Toe
democrats will attempt to organize the Senate
tomorrow, and during the forenoon Will NOTIFY
the republicans and request them to arrange
the minority representation On the committees
The democrats In caucus unanimously decided
that II was their duty to proceed with organl-
Zal1on; that the work OF the extra session
ought TO oe disposed OF as rapidly as possible.
and 1t could not be disposed OF properly with
out the regular committees being formed. f. is
10 secret that the republicans Will attempC to
