TuE REPpBLIcANs BEGINNING NHny
BADLY.

The manner in which the committees
OF the House are made need not sur
prise those who have eonsissrcd the
manner in which the Speaker himself
was made He has followed the laS
Of his creation, that is all. Compare
the organization of this House by Mr
Camsron's Speaker with the osganiza
tiona under the auAtero Kerr or the
vigilant and inesrruptihle Randall!
They arranged their eommit,eea so "a
to check jobbory, and says the p~blic
money; aud they accomplished lheiI
purpose. The measures Of the lobby
were strauglel a. fas: AZ they appeared
and before Mr.. Randall had bssn AI
the head 9f the Appropriation
COMMITTEES for one session aud Speaker
for two sessions, the lobby itself had
ceased TO struggle and taken itself ofir
to reappear only with Ksifer, will
Secor Robson for his sponsor.
KeIfer has made no mistakes de
has framed his committees so as tc
reverse completely the policy Of Ken
and Randall. Retrenchment, economy
careful revision Of the executive esti
mates, can have no place in the pro
gram which is to be wrought eat by
Keifer. Almost every one Of IT,
committees seems TO have been made
up with distinct view to extrayaganc'
fnot to corruption. The purpose II
disclosed not merely in the assignment
of tho members of the majority party
bat in the studied misplacing Of th'
ablest and most trusted men Of th'
minority-the only men to whom th'
ceuntry looks with real confidence 70
the defeat of vicious legislation.
Certainly nobody will be able Il
question Keifers intentions, or per
haps we ought to say, the intentions 0
those Who have him IN charge. Their
is no m;staking either the purpose o
the character OF his work; and no on
can deny that the new Republican
Congress has begun its career as bad
ly as possible. 1t is not by such means
that the confidence Of the country cal
be retained, and the election of I8s4
made the occasion Of new and durabl
Republican success.-N. \. Sun.

As VIC live away in the 8. l.. corner

years ago there were but four families

And to show you how fast this country
is settling, we ROW have fifteen families
and six bachelors, makiag in all twenty
one settlers. We cau't say that these
last naped settlers are Of any particu-
lar benefit to our school, of which we
shall now speak. Three years ago we
had the first school of this district, six
months, and three months each the
following two years, making in all
twelve months of school, for which we
have paid forty dollars per month for
teachers $4,000 paid fer teaching in
three years. presume that, that Ia
better thar some Of the older districts.
We will have enough money this year
for a six months school, fer which we
will want teacher. Teachers holding
No. l certificates, who understand
governing school, might do we'll to
correspond with either Of the Directors,
J. L. Stewart or A. J. Workman.
The average daily attendance Of our
school last year was something over
30.
We also have preaching once a
month by each of the following mon.

He will be the candidate not of the

ty, Lut of convention composed Of
Blaine delegates. In it win be repre-
sented Blaine delegates from the south,
aRd with B'aine there will be nominal
ed democrat like Joe Brown of Geor-

the best elements of the republican and
democrat parties. It Will justify itself
by asserting that only in its organiza-
ton can the rule of the bosses, the die
tatorship of Cameron and Logan be ov-
erthrown. It will try to represent what
Is known as the "Garfeld idea," and
what is called "the honest progressive
democracy Of the south" It is also said
that it is by no means such hopeless
and chimerical scheme, especially in
Blaine's hands, and in view Of the fact
that it will be impossible to wholly heal
the breach In the republican party.
