END OF THE 4sTH CONGRESS.

The forty-eighth congress has pass
ed into history. Its last days have
been its best. It's record is not an
eventful one. Politically it has been
divided, and many measures of large
Impotence have failed by disagree
ment. The reduction of postage from
three to two cents, the Dingley act
which removed some of the burdens
resting upon our navigation interests,
the establishment of national labor
bureau. the act against foreign con-
tract labor, and the bill for the re-
tirement of Gen. Grant are the prin-
cipal measures of public interest. The
list is not a long one or strong one,
but it might have been longer and
weaker. The worst sin of omission
that lies against this congress is its
failure to deal with the silver ques-
ton. This may be disastrous before
the 10th congress can grapple with it
in the ordinary course of events. The
silver dollar is now worth only 82H
cents in gold, and the danger grows
with the steady depreciation. More
and more Congress becomes an un-
wieldy and numbering body, and little
dependence can be placed upon it for
needed legislation except as time and
necessity force it. Luckily for the
country, it can get along without leg
islation better than formerly.

The republican party is the depart
ing guest of the nation; it has been
in authority for "a years, and even
its foes will confess that it has moe
grand and glorious pages in it's history
than any party that ever ruled the
nation. The glory of other parties
has been that they acquired territory,
and secured material prosperity for
the Republic, bat the republican
party had double glory; it has
been moral and a material power.

it restored the national credit after

while not always true to its highest
and best traditions, it has proved it.

The orgie following the Inaugural
ton ball at Washington was simply
scandalous, according to the state
ments of democratic correspondents.
The contents of 5000 bottles of
champagne were drunk. The Globe s
correspondent says that the sounds
of revelry could be heard through
out the structure. Many complaints
were made, but it was impossible to
check the disorder, because several of
the participants were men in high
positions, while others were army
and navy officers and government
officials. Wine glasses and bottles
were freely smashed. Trim-looking
youths in full dress, who a short
time before had been pictures of dig
nifty and grace in the whirling dance,
were acting like lunatics. 1t was
not until the lights were ordered to be
turned out at 5 o'clock that the bibu-
Ious throng began to dispense" We
do not recall any such exhibition as a

lican president. Telegraph.

1t is announced that Col. @. g..
Benedict has ready for the press the
first volume of his history of the part
taken by Vermont soldiers in the war
for the Union, and it will be put into
type forthwith. 1t will make an
octave volume of more than five
hundred pages and will be devoted to
the ''Old Brigade" exclusively. The
second volume, which Col. Benedict
has now nearly completed, and which
will be of equal size, will be devoted
to the other regiments which went
from this state, commencing with the
Cavalry. The work will embody the
most careful and painstaking re-
search and will be as complete as it is
thorough-of all which, indeed, MI.
Benedict's qualifications for his task
are abundant guarantee. The book
will certainly be worthy of a wide
circulation.

William F. Villas of Wisconsin,
President Cleveland's postmaster
general, was born at Chelsea, Vt,
July 8, 1910. He went to Wiscon-
sin when he was II years old and
graduated at the Wisconsin Univer-
sity in 1858. He studied law at
the Albany law school, graduating
there in 1860. and then went back to
Wisconsin to practice law. When
the war broke out he entered the
army as captain in the End Wiscon-
sin regiment, and after being pro-
NOTED to Northumberland resigned
his commission and resumed his law
practice. In 1875 he was appointed
one of the revisers of the statutes of
Wisconsin. In 1879 he was talked
of as democratic candidate for
governor. He presided over the
convention at Chicago that nominal

The returns made ia 1883 by the
corporations assessed under the law
of 1882 to provide revenue for the
payment of state expenses showed
very gratifying result, the amount
of taxes paid into the state treasury
approxiaating 100000. The oper-
alton of the lag in 1884 is still more
satisfactory. For the first six months
of the year the various corporations
paid taxes aggregating s87 600,
Which exceeded by. $4,000 the
amount of taxes assessed for the
corresponding six months in 1888.

victor belongs the spoils, etc" and
we are informed that principles never
change"
Really, we think the writer of the
41yus article was not far from the
truth when he stated that democratic
methods and principles have not
changed since the party was last in
power. Pity, however, that there is
no progress after these twenty-fonr
years. when the country, under an
other rule, has made an advancement
unparalleled in the history of the
world. While the Argus is on its
GLORY and is Boosting of "demo-
cratic principles as the foundation
stones of the republic, on which the
great snperstructure of the country's
free institutions and liberty are
built" we beg to remind it that had
it not been for the republican party
the ''free institution p of slavery
would have still existed, and the
Boosting of liberty been farce.
You are feeling awful happy, we
know, Mr.. argus, but do not claim
too much. You can claim the s:acme
of glory that you are entitled to up
to 1860. but another party has logged
you along while you have been fight
ing and kicking against every good
thing all the while, and at the same
time won some honors which history
and coming generations will reco9
nize. His administration will be
democratic in all its departments.
We do not doubt that statement
in the least. That is the old Jack
sonian doctrine. But after this change
is all brought about, there will be
somebody fool enough to make en-
quiries about the "CiviI Service no
ton which came to light in modern
days, and there will be references to
party platforms, public letters, inaug-
ural addresses and the like, and we
predict the party which ignores these
things, will stand in ridiculous
plight, when its hypocrisy on this
"shibboleth'' is exposed. Possibly,
republican rule Is not ended.

The word Ben in the Holy Scriptures,
refers to either an iron style, or to a
reed; the latter being the earliest form
of pen used for writing on papyrus.
One of the earliest attempts to make
steel pens is attributed to VIM. Gadhury,
England, who, for his own use, construct
ed clumsy article from the main spring
of watch.
Steel Pens were first brought into use
about the year 1903.
james Perry of London, commenced to
manufacture pens in 1924, and was the
founder of the firm named Perry & Co.,
who are now the largest pen makers in
