THE Shakers originated in England
about the year 1770, though now con-
fined solely to the United States. They
number between 5000 and 5000. and

The most extensive moss-agate beds
are found $50 miles west of Omaha.
These beds are about fifty yards wide
and nearly 100 yards long, being sepa-
rated from each other at a distance of
from one to two miles. The intrinsic
value OF the agate consists in its display
OF moss, the pine and cedar forest being
the most priced for jewelry sets.
The honor of inventing movable type

about 1865, and Peter Schoffer, the

George I'LL, dying in the sixtieth year of

TIE word "etiauette," in the original
French, means ticket or card. In
former times it was the custom in
France, on occasions of ceremony or
to distribute among the guests
tickets or small slips Of paper contain

directions for the conduct of the COM
oany. Thus, if thing was done prop
srly, it was said to be done according to
he ticket or the etiquette. In the
course of time the word acquired its
present general meaning, and was
ldopted into the English language.

MoRMONISM IN CONGRESS-.

Although there is manifest but
one sentiment among the American
people as 10 the disgrace of the po-
iyeamist Cannon being admitted as
a delegate to Congress. there Is evil
IDENTITY positive division If opinion
on the subject among the representa-
tires of the people. Dispatches from
Washington indicate that there is
doubt whether this leacherous alien
will be excluded or not The fol-
lowing is the latest we have noticed
on the subject:
aINGToN, Dec. THE liter
ature Of the Mormon and anti.
Mormon contest over the seat Of tte
delegate from Utah, is assuming =
formidable proportion There are
already hanging over congressman
a nine.y-fye. page printed pamphlet
of the law and facts on behalf of
Campbell, and T. nineiy-page reply,
in similar print, from Cannon, the
Mormon delegate. Tonight Wig
orous sur oinder has been issued by
Campbell over his own signature,
conveying some exceedingly pointed
suggestions and reflections. Common
contends, in his pamphlet. that the
certificate issued by Gov. Murray to
Campbell was 30 certificate at all, as
the law requires The person having
the greatest number of votes shall
be declared by the governor duly
elected" and the governor, rot dar-
ing to certify that Campbell was
that person, certified that he was
"the person being citizen OF the
United States who received the lar
gest nuniber or votes" This Cannon
considers II most ingenious device
of the gallant governor to avoid be
ing subject to indictment for felony.
To which Campbell retorts that the
law of Congress, Sec. 1860, Revised
Statutes, provides that none but
citizens shall be elected to office in
the territories, and the governor, in
his certificate, simply paraphrased
the language of the law. He adds
that the suggestion in Cannon's cir
culars that the governor, in using
this language, was contemplating
Indictment by Canpon's Mormon
friends, may De answered by saying
that, if such an indictment were
found, Gov. Murray would not prob
ably defend against it by the plea OF
the statute of limitations as Cannon
has done in Utah courts for
polygamy.

THE NEW SPEAKER.

OF Gen. Joseph w. Keller, the
newly elected Speaker Of the House
of Representatives, the Milwaukee
Republican has the following to say:
Gen. Keifer was born in Clark
county, Ohio, in 1886, was reared on
a farm, and after common school
education, spent some time In Anti
och College He studied law and
was admitted to the bar in 1858. On
the breaking ont OF the rebellion, In
1861, he was commissioned major Of
the Third Ohio infantry, and in 1862
was appointed colonel OF the One
Hundred aud Tenth Ohio. lie was
subsequently brevetted brigadier,
and, later, major general for gallant
conduct, and was four times wound
ed. His political career began in
1868, when he was member OF the
Ohio State Senate, serving two yrs
He was first elected to Congress IN
1876, and is now serving his third
term. 1t is represented in many Of
the Washington dispatches that he
was the candidate Of the 'Stalwarts."
But he does not represent any fac
ton of the party. He received the
support Of tho so.called Stalwarts
because they preferred him to His
cock. Gen. Keller was member OF
the Chicago convention, and sup
ported Mr. Sherman for the Presi-
dency until the break was made for
Garfield Without especial emf
nence of any sort he has been an
active and influential member OF
Congress, taking al active part III
debate, and acquiring considerable
prominence during his past two
terms of service. He has had sui
ficient experience to be familiar with
the rules, aud has q strong phys
iaue and powerful voice, which are
necessary qualifications for sue
cessful presiding officer in body 20
turbulent as the House of Repre-.
sentatives Intellectually Mr.. Has
son, of Iowa, is doubtless the ables'
man among those who figured Is
candidates for the speakership,wh
he has had the longest and most di-
versified training In public life. But
be will be even more useful upon
the floor than in tho speakers chair
and this fact undoubtedly operated
to his prejudice us candidate
There need be no regret at the fell
ure Of Mr.. Hiscock. We have MOI
always agreed with the class OF Re
pnblicans who call themselves "stal
warts" but there was ample grount
for objection to bestowing any spec
ial mark of distinction upon tina
gentleman. A writer in the New
York Post, who has taken the pains
to look up his congressional record
shows that he generally lodged vot
ing upon important measures con
corning which there was any serious
conflict of opinion.
