A joint Republican caucus of Sen
ators and Representatives was held
in the hall of Representatives, Wash.
ington, on Wednesday night, of last
week, to appoint congressional COM
mittee. More than 125 members OF
Congress were present. Senator Ed
munds. of Vermont, presided, and
Representative Miller, of Pa, acted
as secretary. In taking the chair
Senator Edmunds said that the out
look for the Republican party in 1884
was at this early period in the cam
paign better than at any time in the
past fifteen years. There was every
reason to believe that the party would
be successful if it only exercised wis

Our school system certainly needs
radical change, and if there is one
officer in this great commonwealth
of ours that should be elected by the
voice of the people, it should be the
person or persons who look after the
future destiny and welfare of our chill
dren. But, alas whenwill that time
come. We will look, expect and hope
that something will be done during
this session of the legislature to give
that power and privilege to the in
telligent voters of our State, that
they shall go up to the ballot box and
say by their ballots who shall look
after the educational interests of our
children.
And there is another question that
materially affects the welfare of every
county and every citizen of the State,
and that is in regard to the board of
county commissioners. l think, and
feel confident, that it would be say
ing to any county to have a part of
the preceding board to hold over. as
ttIisar one half of them as could be
made, and then elect them for four
years, and elect one half of them
every two years. 1t is probable that
an amendment to the constitution to
that effect will come before the pres
ent legislature. 1 hope that it will
and then be sustained by the people.

There are thousands of people liv-

rails, the improvement in which was
first noticed by this journal one week
ago, may be said to have gained 81 90
per ton, for no orders can be placed
here except at S36a36. 80, according to
