Ever since Mr.. villas refused 70 yield
20 the insolent demands Of the Pacific

Mr.. Villas complied with the full re-
quircmcnts Of the law. There was no
mandatory clause in T. obliging him to
submit to the demands Of the Pacific
Mail Company. and his action in resist
ing the bulldozing course Of that mo-
nopoly has been sustained BY public
sentiment. His exhaustive cxplana-
ton Of the question in his annual re-
port convinced every fair-minded read
er Of the wisdom AID prudence that
governed his action.
The passage Of the Post-ofiice Appro-
priations bill in the House Of Repre-
scntatives IS striking vindication OF
the course pursued b. MIR. Villas. The
wise discretion he had exercised was
eloqucntly explained by Messrs. Hol-
man and Randall. That remarkable
specimen Of New Jersey statesman

most amusing misstatement OF the
question between Mr.. Villas and the

THE NEXT HOUSE
A Forecast Of tn. Result Of the Sex'
Congressional Elections.

Forecast or tn. Result Of the Sexe
Congregational Elections
Under ordinary circumstances the
majority Of the House Of Representa-
tives will be Democratic, as il has been
at every election since 1872, save one.
and a. il would then have been had
the districts been arranged as they
now are in the several States.
During this time the Southern States
have sent at each election practically
the same number OF Democratic Repre-
sentatives. except that the Missouri
Democrats in 1880 lost several districts
through 4 Grecnback- Republican al-
lance. Decided political changes
| have been confined mainly 70 the
Northern States. and the disastrous ef-
fects were felt only BY Republicans.
| The Democrats, sure Of more than one
hundred Southern members without
anv considerable expense Of time or
money. found it no very difficult mat
ter TO secure sufficient number from
the Northern States to give them ms
ioritv. which. in such years as 1879
and 1882. ran well into the seventies.
The present House has 1S4 Democrat
n members, Of whom 1913 are from the
South. 80 from the East and A from
the West, considering all the late slave
States the South. New England, New
York. New Jersey and Pennsylvania,
the East, and the rest Of the States the
West. The dividing line between par
ties runs now-as 1t has for years
East and West. the Democrats carry
inc the House because their members
from the North outnumber the kepub'
lican members from the South. For
merly this same line was drawn IN al
important votes in Congress. Latter
| ". however. and especially now. thu
line Is purely imaginary. and. Il drawn
nj ali. Is rather North and South than
East and West. thus tending to divide
! both parties, instead Of welding togeth
- the discordant elements in each.
It Is this fact which makes sagaciou
politicians Of both parties apprchensiv'
, OF the result Of the coming Congres
: sional elections. Democrats suffe
! from no monopoly Of the prcvailin'
J uneasiness. However serious the dis
: satisfaction may be in the Democratic
, party, Republicans are no less con
: ccrned. The only consolation the
1 have lies in their confidence that 10

William l.. Clark of Hartford, who has
received an increase of pension from $24
to SD month without the presi-
dents approval, is probably the worst
wounded soldier OF the war who survives
On Wilson's raid in June, 1854, after nav
Ing been wounded Ia the head and foot
he was made Il prisoner with several 9TH
ers. The rebel captors did not care to take
the trouble of conducting them to prison
and leading them into a thick wood, be
gan shooting them down, one by one
Clark made II break to escape and was
brought to the ground by two balls in his
left leg. He was then riddled with shots
at close range and left for dead The next
morning he came to consciousness, and
lndescrlbable pain and thirst. by con
slant eXertOn he succeeded, by the close
OF the day, in crawling on his left side to
a brook 40 rods distant While there a
wounded cavalry horse came along and
put his nose down to smell of the wound
ed man. Clarke caught him 10y his fore
lock and after many failures mounted his
back, The horse, following his own in
stlnctS, made his way to the Union lines
Clarkes wounds number l., in all and he
is totally disabled Congressman Dock
cry, North Carolina democrat, called for
reading of the report when the case was
before the house, but before it was finish
ed he said: 81 have heard all | want to
hear, and do not insist on the further
reading" The bill passed both houses of
Congress and became Il law 10y the presi-
dents failure to either veto or approve,
II Is charitable to suppose that Mr.. Cleve-
land was so busy writing elaborate VetOeS
of other pension cases that he did not find
time to read the record in Clarke's case.
