proved styles OF bath tubs, wash

ment OF large force OF the most
skilled and reliable woikmen, in order
to execute promptly the orders for this
work, and browne, the Plumber" is
prepared TO fully supply tle wants OF
the city and surrounding country. II
is not necessary, or even profitable, to
20 elsewhere for plumbing work, OF
for the lines in which Browne is en-
gpged is the furnishing OF gas
and steam pipes, cooke, valves, inspi'
rators, steam pumps, fittings and en-
CINE trimmings for the country and
city trade-which is carried in large
quantities and all sizes, from six inch
pipe and fittings down 10 the
smallest sizes, and in order to
FIJI the orders OF the jobbing trade
as well as mills and factories promptly
and in the best manner, Mr.. Browne
hiss recently added steam power in
his establishment with capicity for
cutting and threading pipes from the
smallest size up to and including
eight inches in diameter, which is
equal to the capacity of any house in
the West or South.
In the gas fixture line the largest
stock and most varied selection OF
newest designs are to be found here,
and at prices as low as in the Eastern
markets. Il may be proper to say
here that this house is now the Oldest

The Fiftieth Congress.

1t is six years since the republicans obtained
majority in the House of Representatives.
The elections of 1880 gave them little more
than one-half OF the members, but in 1882 this
was turned into 4 democr attic mai GRITTY Of over
seventy. The democratic strength was re-
duced two years later, but the party still has
4 ma ority of forty-three. Whether this can
be overcome is the most important political
question of the year to the republicans. In
discussing this topic much attention has been
given to the great number of districts which
we're carried by small majorities in 1884,
There are thirty-two of these in which the
successful candidate had less than 500 major
ity or plurality. Eighteen of these went
DE- mocratic, and it has been demonstrated
that 5000 or 5000 votes rightly distributed
would have made the present House of Rep
resentstives republican.
1t would be = great mistake, however, for
the republicans to base their hopes of con-
trolling the next Congress on these slender
msjorities. They ought to be taken into con-
sheraton, but not be made the principal fac
tor in planning the congressional campaign.
Bat the gain or loss of few votes in a
comparatively few districts will not be the de-
Gliding point in the congressional elections
next November. New forces and new ee-
ments will enter into the contest and have
the determining voice. years control of
the general government by the democracy
has not increased the confidence of the coun-
try in that party. The most bigoted mug
wumps have been compelled to admit this.
while they have felt constrained to support
the President. The iuefficiency of the pres
eut Congress. the cloud which it has cast over
tie public credit and its refusal to do any
thing to restore confidence in business circles
have made profound impression upon the
people. The dissatisfaction with the Presi-
dents policy in his own party must likewise
b. weighty factor in this years elections
and the new labor organizations and the pro-
hibition question will also be influential
quantities.
The most promising field. however, for the
republicans to make congressional gains is in
the South. The awakening to industrial
activity there has carried with it greater in
| dependency in political thought and action,
and the result is already msnifestng itself.
There is pronounced uueasiness with the
old methods Of the democracy and an unwill-
ingness to sacrificing any longer the material
interests of that section for the sake of the
party which does nothing for it. The con-
slant tinkering with the tariff has met with
the most decided disapproval IN Southern
democratic papers. Protective principles
have taken u strong root and are destined TO
control the politics of the South in the near
future. The people are also disguised with
| the uiggardly policy of the democrats which
would deny them the Blair bill and appropri-
atoms for their rivers and harbors. IF the
republicans take advantage of these eoudi-
tions and nominate none but strong and re-
putable men Tor Congress, the prospect is
| good for them TO carry number of districts

The question has been raised whether
the suit for recovery OF losses incurred in
the Oregon disaster will come before the
United States courts, as the steamer sank
more than three miles from shore. This
limit has no bearing in such cases. The
suit can be brought in either English or
United States courts. or in both at once.
In the latter case the first judgment in
either court will be bar to further pro-
ceedings in the other. Thus the natural
course would be to bring suit in that
country where the laws are more favora-
BILE to the claimants. The chances OF re-
covering anything under our laws are
small. But there is no chance whatever
under the English rulings. tor although
the English limited liability act allows Is
sterling per registered ton, which in the
Oregon's case would leave $40, 600 SUBJ
ject to claims. the Cunard Company's con-
tracts with passengers and consignors
specify that the company shall not be held
liable to any loss incurred through negli-
gence of employees. The English courts
hold this contract to be valid The United
States courts regard it as contrary to pub.
lie policy and do not recognize it at all
Thus a suit in the latter courts offers the
only chance.-small as it is-of success
