ORGANIZATION OF THE HOUSE.

WASHtNGToN, Nov. 1.-THE ques.
tion of the organization of the next
House begins to attract attention, al
though that event is over a year away.
There is Il great variety of opinion on
the subject Of the Speakership. Some
believe that Randall is already as good
as elected, while others say that he can
never be elected. One gentleman, who
watches matters pretty closely here,
said to me, in speaking of the matter !:
ssRandall can never be elected Speaker
of the House again. The anti-Pro-
tectionists will combine against him,
and he can not muster enough strength
in his own party to get a nomination.
Ofcourse the Protectionists would favor
him, but they are so greatly in the
minority that they could do nothing"
"Who will be then:''
"That is pretty hard to answer, Car
Isle is the best man for the place, but
it would be new thing to see the
Democrats do things as they ought to be
done. Carlisle is clear-headed on all
topics and able, and if the party is
wise it will push him to the front and
keep him there. They can come
nearer making Carlisle President in
1854 than any other man they have"
This is one view of the case. An
olnef SenIleman OF experience mere
said, in speaking of the same subject:
"No one can beat Sam Randall for the
Speakership of the next House. be-
lieve he has the matter thoroughly in
his own hands already.'
"lIOw'' '''
"By reason of sufficient political acu-
men to foresee the effect of last sessions
blunders on the part Of the Republi-
cans, and prepare for the result which
came on Tuesday last. 1 think he
has combinations by which no actually
controls majority of the Democrats in
the next House."

The editor sits in his sanctum he
has 1922 50 to pay to day, and he has
gathered together $2.s2, and needs but

Yes, they will remit soon, and tho
next time the editor duns them they

said they will remit, apparently have

Twenty-Five years ago one could
hardly sell to the average farmer
black pig, even to fattcn, let alone to
breed from, so strong was the prcju-
dice against black hogs. But now, in
all parts of the union, the black hog is
the favorite. 1t is now held that the
black hog is not so subject to skin dis
eases, especially mango, as is the
white ono. Perhaps the opinion will
be reversed within the next twenty
five years, and the "Jersey rcd" may
become the prevailing color. There is
no accounting for tastes.

RAILROAD MArTki.5.


In speaking Of the late purchase of the
st. Louis & San Francisco read by could
and Huntington the ST. Louis Republican
says within the past two years this read
has become interested In quite number of
branch lines, virtually extensions of tho
road, though organized under separate
styles and incorporated In the states in
which the extensions were being built.
The principal one was the Arkansas ex.
tension, known as the Missouri, Arkansas
h Texas railway company. Charters were
also obtained for branches to Eureka
Springs and other out.oi.thc.way points In
Arkansas. The Joplin branch was
another incorporated line In Missouri,
and the 81. Louis, Wichita &
Western is the style ofthe company which
has controlled the Kansas branch. Ycster.
day all of these lines were consolidated into
he 81. Louis 4 san Francisco railroad com.
pany. by the consolidation the Frisco
assumes all OF the Indebtedness of the
branches. The Arkansas road Is now com.
plotcd and In operation twenty-five miles
south OF Fayetteville, and the construction
Of the line Is being pushed rapidly toward
Van Buren,, on the Arkansas river. The
extensions will certainly be completed TO
Paris, Texas. The interests of those
holding the stock seem TO de-
mand that the road be carried TO that
point. IL would cost any one 10 obtain the
controlling interest about Ss,000,0o0 In
actual cash, and the bonds having been
issued for the construction OF the road TO
that point, the failure TO build the line
would result In loss, as there could be no
dividends declared In that event. A semi.
annual dividend has Just been declared on
the frs. preferred stock, and the road Is
now earning enough to declare 81 per cent.
semi-annual dividend on the preferred.
General q, M. Dodge Is reported as hav.
ing said; I'VE are about closing up all our
railroad extensions In the southwest you
may consider u as finished. We now run
trains regularly TO III Paso, on the upper
border Of Mexico; to Laredo, on the lower
border Of Mexico, aud TO the Mississippi
river at New Orleans, st. Louis, Cairo aud
Hannibal. Missouri, connecting with the
