SOMETHING is being said, as usual be.
fore Presidential campaigns, OF the great
influence the Temperance and Prohibi,
tion vote will exert on the result. But,
as heretofore, there is nothing in this
but 'talk, So far as Republicans are
concerned. When the time comes they
will all walk up and vote the straight
Republican ticket. A few otherwise
Democrats may be deceived into throw
ing their votes away, and that is about
all the matter will amount to.
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1884-03-16

MANY Republicans in their extremity
are still using every possible means TO
induce General W. T. Sherman to be
come their Presidential candidate. We
yet consider their efforts Cloves labor
lost. "old Tecumseh" has too much
good sense to be used for the selfish ends
of that or any other party. He ha.
said, time and again, that under no cir.
cumstanees would he allow his name to
be used as candidate for that OF any
other office, and that ought to settle it.

AMONG the many encouraging features
of the approaching campaign, is the fact
that the "Greenback party sideshow
will not figure in the fight, as was the
case four years ago. At that time tens
of thousands of Democrats were drawn
away from the support of their ticket,
by Republican strategy, and induced to
practically give half vote each for the
Republican ticket. For the first time in
years we will have clean cut contest,
with no outside entanglements. In such
a contest, the Democracy, or the people,
for these words are the same, are sure to

THE English very strangely are con.
stantly claiming that Americans are a
weak and small race, physically. not to
be compared with Euglisbmen in either
size or strength. This is the burden Of
a Sir Somebody's lengthy article in the
last Fortaighdy Reriew. We have never
noticed that the English who come
amongst us to live are any larger OF
more powerfully built men than the
average American. and such specimens
as Sullivan and Muldoon, for instance,
rather point to the opposite. at least Sc

House for its concurrence in the Senate
amendment, would 60 to the foot of the
list Of measures on the speakers table
and be covered by 100 Senate bills now
lying there, A gentleman well posted
in the rules and practices of the House,
stated to-day, however, that this bill,
under the rules, was readily accessible
and could be taken up any day when
the majority desired, under the rules.
After the morning hour had expired,
motion to 60 to the speakers table may
be carried by majority
vote The order OF business then is TO
take up, first, executive commu nications,
which are generally disposed of as they
had been received; next, to take up bills
returned to the House from the Senate
with amendments. Under this holding
the Fitz John Porter bill would be
quickly reached, as there are but one or
two measures ahead OF it. So the bill,
which many thought was pigeon. .holed
for awhile, may be brought up any day.
1t is expected by some members that it
will be taken up the first of next week.
