Mr.. Carlisle and the House Com
New Orleans Times HSsase;
WASHINGTON, Nov. 15-Mr. Car.
Isle is expected to arrive here on Wed.
nesday or Thursday next for the win
ter. He will reside, as for several
years past, at the Riggs house. His
coming so far in advance of the open
ing of congress dose not argue any
particular necessity for his presence
here as relates to the speakership +;
that question is already practically de-
cided in his favor and the result would
not be different if he changed
his plans and delayed his arrival
until just time enough to legally quail
ify for the duties of the Office. 1t will
be of advantage to him, however. to
meet the different members of the
house as they arrive, particularly the
new ones, and discuss in an informal
way the more important questions
likely to engage the attention Of Con-
gress. Information gathered in this
way will be of great value in the for
nation of committees, and never were
House committees the subject of more
anxious speculation than are those to
be named by the Speaker of the Forty
ninth Congress. The money question.
the tariff question, the rehabilitation
of the navy and the whole question of
civil service reform will be decided for
the better or worse. as the committees
to which they are referred may be well
or ill-prepared to consider and act up
On them. This matter of making up
his committees will, this year, be the
supreme test of Mr.. Carlisle for the
duties of presiding officers of the
House pure and simple. He is
singularly well qualified, being
quick of apprehension and Of a
calm and equable temper, but to
marshal the forces of the next House,
largely composed of new and untried
men, so as to do justice both to the
members and to the country will try
his judgment and capacity for leader
ship to an advanced and most respon-
sible degree. His admirers promise
that he will prove equal to the occa-
sion, and the general hope is that he
may.
