Dawes aud Butler

Senator Dawes OF Massachusetts, being In
the city, reporter OF the Tribune called
upon him to obtain his views upon poliu-
cal matters. The senator said that his
views in regard to the struggle In the bay
state had not changed materially since he
was interviewed by the Tribune some Ave
weeks ago. Buffers success last year was
due largely TO apathy among republicans.
Owing TO bad blood, growing out OF the
nominations and other causes, thousands OF
republicans remained away from the polls,
while Butler msdea tremendous effort and
received quite support from old repuhll-
can friends. II was a personal triumph
more than democratic victory. He has
eeen a failure, BY going over to the demo
Gratis, body and soul, he has aienated the
republicans who supported him, and his
course has not been such as TO strengthen
him with the old bourbon element who
only supported him at the best reluctantly.
| This year the republican party will be q
unit, oil personal differences
will be laid aside, and COM.
mon CAUSE made against the man,
who, Ia his capacity as governor, has tried
10 throw much on the good name OF the
state by ridcuIing aud trying to lower the
character OF her institutions. That Butler
will run, Senator Dawes regards as certain,
and he will make terrific fight for victory,
because if he carries the state this year Il
will almost certainly give him the demo-
cratic nomination for the presidency, and
II is TO that he is looking more than to q
mere local triumph. But he will find him.

Fire Last Night,

An alarm of fire was turned in from
box 81 at 1O:40 last evening, caused by the
Col. Crooks old residence, corner OF Ninth
and Rosabei streets, and occupied by Mr..
Manville, taking fire in the lower part from
an overheated chimney, the flames run
ming up therefrom inside the lath into the
second story. The fire department and
Chief Black were promptly on tbs spot
and the flames ware subdued with the
chemical engine and Babcock extineuish-
ers, the chief directing tho move
ment with such skill that it was
not necessary to use the steamers. The
insurance of Mr.. Manville on his furniture
was $4,000 and his loss thereon is about
$780, The loss on the building is in the
region of 500. AT O'Clock this morning
the tiremen were on the watch in the
structure for any more demonstrations on
the part of the fiery element. as it was in O.
portion very difficult to get at and to rem
der unusual vigilance to be dead sure it
was thoroughly whipped.

POOR IoGIC

The animated contest for the Speaker
ship of the next House has brought ont p
moroccan of political history that is inter
esting. Since the formation of the gov.
eminent, the Spsskership, by congress
ional terms, has fallen to citizens of
the states named below: To Kentucky
nine terms, to Virginia seven terms, Penn
sylvania five and half, Massachusetts
five, Indiana four and half, New JERSEY
three, North Carolina three, Maine three,
Tennessee two, Connecticut, Georgia,
South Carolina, Ohio and New York, one
term each. On this basis of attainment
Mr.. Cox, of New York, whose statShss had
the Speakership but one term, aad that
soms twenty years ago, thinks that ne should
hive the preference over Mr.. Carlisle.
whose state has held the position eighteen
years, and over Mr.. Randall, whose state
has had the honor for eleven years. It is
possible this line of logic may
exert some influence upon the
selection to be made, but on general prin-
ciples, it is very poor ground on which to
base q conclusion We take it that the
members of the Hoass viii be too sensible
