WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-[Special, AL
though the daily papers are burdened with
speakershlp gossip and calculations, there
is no new or important developments. 1t
Is evident that the canvas is not entirely
rec from acrimony, Notwithstanding that
candidates call on each other and publicly
indulge in polite compliments. 1t IS also
clear to the close observer that the selection
of the speaker will depend upon party ex-
pediency, as it will be expounded ny the
leaders to whom the congressman of SMALL
err calibre are looking for advice in view of
the tariff agitation, the sectional cry ,s.now
being raised and the future
of the party as affected by the
recent elections, possibly the wisest counsel
in the caucus will make the speaker, unless
the party begins to blunder there.
The following patents have been issued:

framing square.

WHEN Gov. Ben Butler not long
ago summarily removed the warden
of the Massachusetts state prisons,
there was great hue and cry for
an investigation. Nothing would
answer but that the governors course
had been arbitrary and unjust, that
great injustice had been done, and un-
less the warden was whitewashed that
Buffers cakes would all be dough.
Well, the legislative committee began
an investigation, but very soon found
that the further they went the orse
it would be for the anti-Butlerites
and the better for the governor. So
last week the subject was quietly
dropped. There are plenty of state
prisons, but there are few governors
with backbone enough to draw the
masko off wardens and such things.

A STRANGE thing in relation to
this testimony that was taken before
the railway subcommittee is. that
Mr.. Arnold's strong statement. upon
(which so much weight was placed,
falls as nothing before the house. Mr..
Arnold is merchant at Bluffton.
and he told about getting big rebates
from the Santa Fe railway on ship
ments of cotton. Theproceedings of the
house go to show that Mr.. Arnold
never shipped but few bales of cot
ton over the Santa Fe railway, and
Mr.. Fisher. agent Of this road. who
made this statement for the ed
ification of the house, also states
on oath that no rebates of
any sort were ever promised
Mr.. Arnold. Representative Acker,
of Lampasas, also stated in the house
that any promise in rebates ever made
to Mr.. Arnold were made in behalf
of an Organization among Lampasas
men. to induce cotton to be
Ght TO Lampasas instead of being
ITO the line of the Texas and
halfway.

The Free Trade league of Missouri
has Ex-Gov. John 5. Phelps as its
chairman. and declares in its state

of the people. by the people and for

of any individual or class above that

always hurtful to the country, and is
finally fatal to the industries it as

Mr.. STAeNER's proposition to
strike out the proviso in section
twelve of the railway bill, shat all
railroad stations in this state, where
two or more railways, under different
and distinct organizations, intersect,
either road may fix its charges to
and from said station without refer
ence to their schedule of charges
on the balance of this road" was
staggering to the railway bill men in
the house. 1t is the rock upon which
they will split, and the defeat of the
bill seems certain, no matter which
horn of the dilemma is taken.

THE gentleman from Caldwell need
not offer excuses for following Mr..
Chenoweth, for the intellect of the
latter justifies him in being recog-
nized as a leader. He simply COM
mitted an error in originating a bill
dangerous to the best interests of
Texas; and he is by no means per-
sistent in forcing his individual
views on anybody. His seeming adj
mission that his bill attempted too
much is creditable to him, and shows
that he is really liberal-minded
legislator.
