a LADY went out very quick, and the
president grew red in the face when the
senator held up his hands and said: Now
no az ologles, Mr. Cleveland, we were all
that way once. Mrs. Cleveland is very
happy at the white house, and we hope
her ambition to stay there another term
will be realized. The president is so
Kind TO her mother, too. He asked her
to spend the winter at the executive
mansion, and she will probably do it.
Some one asked Mrs. Cleveland how she
liked the place and she replied she had
only one objection. That it was pub
lie place--eyerybody's house and that
people came and went just as though it
was department. She likes o quiet
place sometimes, like they are going to
have in the country, for she is girlieh

In county elections throughout Da,
kota there rs a q disposition among re-
publicans TO depart from their &C.
custumed liberality in division of Off
ces with democratic minorities. These
mlnorities have hitherto respectfully
asked for fayors in the interest of local
good will. Feeling their oats to a
greater extent that tie size of the repast
will warrant, they are now disposed TO
demand as right what has heretofore
been conceded as favor. 1t is time for
the republican party to place it's weight
upon them. Politics mean something
this year.

AT the Des Moines meeting of the
board of foreign missions the liberal ele-
ment within the Congregational church
tho advocates of what is populariy
known as the Andover theory-were
overcome by superior numbers, The
board is composed largely of elderly
clergymen, men who have outliyed any
possibility of doctrinal change and do
not care to witness the destruction OF
dogmas unnn which their life's work is
based. The younger representatives OF
the chutoh ore more venturesome. Their
future is before them and they are not
irrevocably bound to the theories of the
past. They are ut present in the MI
nority, though that minority is by nc
means feeble one. The lapse of time
will strengthen their forces and in some
future gathering they will again loci
horns with established usage and in the
end the elders OF the organization vii
realiz that they are lifted bodily out o
an ancient rut and placed upon plat
form of progressiveness. The worlt
moves and religious denominations ar
worldly enough to be part of the world
It has advanced considerably since the.

said. profoundly impressed with the I'M
p0rtance Of developing the natural water
ways Of the country. aud believes that the
puoilc money JudicIOusly expended upon
such improvements is wisely expended.

because he did not have time
to give IL that close and careful study

TO see the commercial facilities of every
section improved and developed as rapid
ly as is consistent with an economical

WASHINGTON, Jan. pa Democratic
member of the Ways and Means Commit
tee said to-day;
"We will not take up the tariff question
in committee for some time vet. we Will
not report bill before tht|spring. About
100 bills have been referred TO the COM
mittee already, but none have been con-
sidered."
Another Democratic member Of the
committee said:
"There seems to be a growing desire on
the Democratic side OF the House for a
tariff bill which Will prescribe speclhc
duties, the equivalent Of the ad valOrem
duties at present prices which may,
think, be regarded as meritoriOus."
THE REPUBLICAN SENATORS.
The Republican Senators will, it is
stated send first to the heads of the de-
partments again for information about
the removals ana appointments, stating
this time that 1t is information and not
reasons that they desire. II the heads of
departments make the reply to this that
they made to the former request the Re
publican Senators propose 10 ask the
President for Information respecting re-
mOyais and appointments. Tne Presi-
dent has not Of course announced
his purpose respecting sucn re-
quest and cannot until 10 is made,
but it il safe to say that wgile
tue Republican Senators may get All the
papers on fie about the appointments and
such as are considered public about the
removals, they will get nothing else. They
may not ret anything 40 all. The Presl-
dents position is impregnable. II The

j0urned till tomorrow morning at 10
O'Clock and the Democrats adjourned till

at the present time, each contending for

proceedings. The opposing sides were IN

gramme OF proceedings on the part of

About all the Democrats left for their
homes tonight and il is doubtful
If any Of them will respond in the morn

so be pursued is to adjourn from day to
day and compel the attendance OF the
members. 1t would be impossible TO pro-
ceed to consideration Of contested cases
