ed to represent bis district in tho lower
House OF Congress, defeating Mr. Morrison,
who had already served ono term in Con-
gress. Two years later he ran again against
Mr.. Morrison and vas rs.elected. From 1865,
when his term in Congress expired, until
1878 he devoted himself entirely to his law
practice. Then President Hayes appointed
him Minister to Venezuela and he held the
Office until June of last year. He has al
ways been a republican, and he was
selected IS the candidate of his party this
year in the belief that if ANYBODY
could defeat MIR. Morrison he could.
The contest between them was made
wholly on the tariff Issue, Mr. Baker being
protectlonist. He was assisted in the
campaign, in which both candidates spoke

president of the Amelgamated Steel and

of his labors the miners and employees in

keepers and merchants, turned the tide
against Morrison and changed his district
from one with 1900 democratic majority to
one giving Baker majority of $50. Morri.

There is scarcely any disaster from
natural causes, without some degree Of
compensation. We complain of the
ruin wrought TO the crops by the OK
c%cssivo rains, but we never think Of the
benefits they bring in other directions.
Even the dreaded cyclone may purity
the air, and render a widespread cpi-
demic impossible. Our intcllccis are
so narrow we cannot grasp the whole
economy of nature, and we only realize
the effects that immediately concern
Us: and even our optimism fails us
when VIC feel there is something al-
most cruel in the dispcnsations of
Providence, and we are apt mentally
