IT is expected that the Judicia

IT is expected that the Judicia-
ry Committee will press to vote
the National Bankrupt bill passed
by the Senate at the last session ;
that the Committee on Public
Lands will insist upon the pas
sage of the Northern Pacific Land
Grant Forfeiture bill now pending
in the House. and that the Bank
ing and Currency Committee will
urge that a vote be taken on the
Mcpherson Refunding bill and
the bill to suspend the coinage of
silver dollars. These measures
will probably constitute the prin-
cipal subjects of discussion OUT
side OF the appropriation bills
before the House at the present
session. An attempt to suspend
the rules and pass the Bankruptcy
bill will be made in the early part
OF January, but as it requires a
two-thirds vote for suspension, it
is not probable that the attempt
will be successful

BISHOP John Sharp of Utah is
in New York. He said on being
interviewed: "The Edmunds
bill will make matters worse.
Hoar's proposition will also be a
failure. The trustees could never
manage Utah because they know
nothing about its affairs, and the
Mormons would not take the
trouble to enlighten them. I
wonder how New York Presbys
terians would like it if a Board
of Mormon Trustees should un>
dertake to run their church gov
eminent for them? They would
be likely to object pretty loudly.
This VIII ole agitation is unwise.
The more we are prosecuted the
greater will be the growth of
Mormonism, and the more the
temporal interests of Utah will
suffer. The latter is something
that Uncle Sam will feel in his
pocket. It it hadn't been for per-
secuiion the Christian religion
would never have been what it is
in numerical strength. 1t is the
same with ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
ton increases its vitality"

The California Senator.

The California Legislature,
which is about to convene, is to
elect United States Senator to
take the place of Senator ]. T.
Farley. The Legislature being
Republican in sentiment this
time, none but Republican as
pirantS stand a ghost of show to
warm the seat about to be made
vacant by Mr.. Farley. The most
prominent among the Republican
candidates are A. A. Sargent,
George G. Perkins and Morris M.
Estee. or the three Perkins is
the most popular, and the race
will be narrowed down to
Sargent and Perkins. Estee will
withdraw from the contest after
the first ballot, and it is conceded
that Gov. Perkins will be the
next U. s. Senator from CalifOr-
MIA. The Democratic compli-
mentary vote will be either
given to the present incumbent,
J. T. Farley, George Hearst or
Barclay Henley. The latter is
tce only Democrat in the House
from the Pacific Coast. and when
Mr.. Farley steps down and out,
Mr.. Henley will be the only
Democrat In Congress from this
Coast, and as he is the compro-
mise candidate for the empty
honor, he will be the one likely
to receive the complimentary
vote. From our independent po-
sitson we care but little; but of
the two evils we prefer the lesser
one, and would, of course, be
pleased to see a Republican Sem
ator. Either of the two most
prominent candidates named
would suit us.

THE following item is fro M tn

THE following item is from the
Tombstone "Daily Epitaph" of
the 23d instant:
]. W. Darlington, Of the Yuma SEN
TINEL. is looming up as candidate for
President of the Council. Mr.. Dorring-
ton has had good deal OF Legislative
experience and woul1 fill the position
ably. Personally he is an elegant gen.
tIeman, and should his friends press his
claims, he vii prove formidable can :
didate.
Mr.. Darlington is at present
absent in San Francisco, and we
don't know what his feelings are
in the matter. Our opinion is
that he is not, personally, CAM
didate for President of the Coun-
Gil, and if he gets there, he will
do so through the efforts of his
friends who appreciate his worth
and fitness for the position. We
are certain that Mr.. Darlington
knows nothing of his candidacy,
or whether his name has ever
been thought of for the position.
However, should he be elected,
he will preside over the delibera-
lions of the Council in dignified,
impartial and in an intelligent
way and do credit to the position.

JULIAN T. Davis, receiver for
Grant & Ward, in his testimony
lately, gave the following: $50
far as he could judge, the Iiabili-
ties Of the firm were $6,OOO,OOO
without any account of the out
standing paper and obligations
connected with the so-called
Government contract business.
Since he had become receiver
about $4,000, 900 of Liabilities had
been extinguished by realization
by pledges of Grant & Ward of
collateral securities held by such
pledges. The nominal assets
were about $17,OOO,OOO, but in
cIuded in this amount were very
large lots of mining stocks and
worthless securities, SO that the
actual assets were very small, and
totally insufficient to pay even a
small dividend on the liabilities
already ascertained, unless re-
cOvery be had in law suits now
pending or contemplated. In any
contingency there would not be
dividend of more than 80 per
cent. His information was that
the estate of James D. Fish was
insufficient to pay the liabilities,
and in the matter of F. D. Grant
there was almost a total want of
assets, while the liabilities were
very large.

IT is supposed that the inaugur-
alton ball will be held in the new
end large Light Infantry Opera
House," in Washington, D. G.
There is an impression that Mr..
Cleveland can dance, or that he
can at least get through with a
quadrille without being so very
awkward. Should he open the
Inauguration ball, it ia said, he
will be the first President since
Jackson who has done so. Grant,
it is related, tried to lead a quad.
rifle at his inauguration ball, but
made a botch of it; and had to
depend altogether upon his part
ner. Gen. Banks is credited with
being tho best dancer among all
ouI public men.

Is not an exception. Whenever
the great chief appears at dinner,
he carefully unfolds his napkin,

1t is the same alley, but a narrow
pathway along it is swept clean and
dry, and here and there strewn with
straw. AT the door Of the public house
stands little group of people sur
rounding the Sister OF Mercy. Two of
them seem as if their hearts were too
full of speech; on the arm of one hangs
a weakly woman, the other stands
alone. They press her hands, one man
raises the rough sleeve Of her gown
and kisses its hem, with tears raining
down his cheeks.

practical advice little exhortation.

So confident were the |

SO confident were the Democrats that
they would carry Ohio, that they brought
Cleveland over to New York just in time,
as they thought, for exhibition when the
returns came in announcing Il great Dem
ocratic victory. 1t was something like
the demonstration in Staunton in 1880,
gotten up to yell over the Democratic vic
tory in Indiana. Everything was prepared
for it. Tar barrels and, fire works were
placed to give emphasis to the success.
When the news flashed over the wires
that the Republicans had carried the State
by 1000 majority, what purported to be
dispatch was manufactured, announcing
just the reverse. This was read before a
large assemblage i'll the Opera House
where Judge Allen was speaking When
one of the local leaders was told that such
receptions would do harm, he responded,
'Oh, no. There were representatives from
every club tn the county, and they will
know no better until after the election.''
That is about the size Of 1t now. Bar
mum s address and the persistent misrep-
resentation of the Democratic press about
the returns from Ohio are intended to de-
ceive the crednlous and keep from the
people the facts. The Republican plurality
