Washington specixl: It is rather a
speakership conteats that the various
candidates for this important position
are conducting their campaigns solely
on the floor of tbe house. Az yet no
headquarters" hare been opened. and
il is NOT likely that any will be. zAs the
close Of the forty-seYenth congress-,
when the %speakership fight opened for
the forty eighth, there we're half q
dozen headquarters OF candidates IN full
blast in Washington. These ~headqasr-
ters were rooms in different hotels,
which had been engaged either directly
by she candidates or by their friends.
They we're not confined to the friends
OF the gentlemen who desired to preside
over the deliberations OF the honse alone,
but extended to those who desired to be
~doorkeepers, serReaHt.Rt.arms clerk and
even chaplain. Sunset Cox had o room
in WilIard's hotel. He had g whole
host OF retainers, and while there VAS a
tacit agreements that there were to be no
l:quors furnished by either OF the gem
tlemen who desired votes for the speak.
ship, the thirsty were not compelled to
leave Mr.. Oox's room with their thirst
u%nquenched.
Congressman Springer had his place
of business in the National hotel.
Springer had nothing to drink in his
room, bat in the adjoining room, which
opened into his by the aid OF q very con-
venient door, there was a complete bar
room layout. Springer only had one
real supporter, bat it is said that he got
away with more liquors 10 his annex
than any other candidate for any of the
cfices except the chaplain.
The chaplain, go the boys said, was
the most cornwall OF the whole crowd.
There was no stint. He always turned
his back when his visitors took q drink,
like q true Kentucky gentleman passing
the last bottle OF Bourbon.
This year there is not q glass OF wine
OF q smell Of the "crather" offered by
any Of the candidates. One or two of
them who are in the fight for all they
are worth, have q few bottles OF Pomery
SEQ in their sideboarda, but they lock
the sldeboards mp tight when congress.
men call upon them, and only break the
seal when in company with n~on.congres
sionai friends. II is anybody's race SO
far, and there are in all eight or nine
candidates in the field. They are Reed
of Maine. Lodge of Massachusetts,.
Farquhar of New York, Bayne, of
Pennsylvania, Burrows OF Michigan.
B%utterworth and Mckinley of Ohio.
Cannon of Illinois, and Henderson OF
Iowa. About half OF these are not
seriously working for the place. but
should there be . long struggle over the
organization of the house If ia quite
possible that one of the dark horses may
win.

A MEETING of the cattlemen of the
west was held in Kansas City last
week for the purpose of forming an as
ISOLATION to protect their inter csts
against the commission men and pack
ers at Kansas City, who they claim are
in league with each other to keep the
price of live stock as low as possible.
Members composing the association
hail from Texas, Colorado, the Indian
Territory, Kansas and Nebraska. Just
how they propose to get the better OF
the combine they do not make clear. 1t
is enough, however, thatithere is some
thing radically wrong in the cattle mar
ket and that something must be done to
correct il. The disposition does not
seem to be very strong in the legls.a-
ture to aid the stock raisers, hence
they are taking the matter into theiI
own hands.

a bad CASE OF COLO.

Marsh Murdoch ate something that
gave him the collie, and while groaning
with the gripes sat down and wrote a
bungling screed against the fool legis-
lature," which he claims has done
nothing but add to the burdens of the
people since il came together. Five
days, he says, are enough, in which
the legislature may transact all the
business and make all the laws need
full, and that forty-five days are squan-
dered in piling up expenses and perpe-
trating outrages on the people.
Pretty sharp that, and quite sugges-
tive of the aches and pains that tor
tured the poor mans "in'ards." 1t is
very evident that the choleric editor
suffered all the more because of his in
ability to crowd in an eXpletive now
and then to reinforce his fierce objur-
cations and relieve an overcharged
spleen.
He grew dogmatlc, as was inevitable
under the circumstances, and told the
solonS that kansas wants no adj
journed session" There is trace of
gan III IudI. 4OOlCJ oGIOOO was ICpIO-
scented by three tailors, but here is only
one speaking for Kansas. Very cheeky
you will say, and quite Hector like.
Well, rather.
An adjourned session for the pur-
pose of legislating in the interest of
stock raisers, means, he says doodle"
That sounds funny. in fact, ridiculous.
If the legislature cared to bleed the
combine, it has had abundant time
during the present session to do so.
That it proposes to wait and act upon
the recommendations of the st. Louis
conference is proof that it wants to
act intelligently and for the general
good. 1t is possible that individual
members of the legislature are Access
sible to the seductive influence of boo
die, but if the entire body were, it is
pursuing an absurd course in propos-
ing an adjourned session to gain its end
If Murdoch had dosed himself freely
with paregoric and taken good naI
before sitting down to his desk, the
TRADE against the legislature and ar
adjourned session would not have ap
peared.

EDITOR NEws:-Yo our commentator
in the interests Of the Alaskans
of my name as governor of that terri
tory has been carefully noted and if
nothing more comes of it, which
is very probable, / will here
after rank with the editor of
the Republican as a real bonafide
governor and share with him in all
the perquisites pertaining to the title.
Too long has Eskridge monopolized all
the honors in this direction. and it has
certainly appeared that the ways of
Providence, which made Feighan a col
onel, Buck and Cunningham judges and
Eskridge governor, were inscrutable
and probably open to criticism.
But there is another phase to this
question to which / would like to cal
your attention. Emporia has long sui
fered from the operations of combines
and I could, with the inexhaustible re
sources OF Alaska in icebergs, pola
bears, walruses, seals and the auror;
borealis at my command, insure cheap
ness in meat, ice, sealskin cloaks ant
the electric lights and render Empori
forever free from tribute to these feal
full evils. Yours Truly,

Alaska,a New Gorsrnor.

The special correspondent of the
Lawrence Journal at Topeka writes
to his paper that a petition is being
circulated among state officers request
ing the appointment by President
Harrison of w. S Jay of this city for
governor of Alaska. 1t will be news
to the friends OF ar. Jay-better
known perhaps as ''Pickwick '-to
hear that he is ambitious to sway the
scepter of authority in those far away
and byperboreap regions where the
aurora borealis makes its home. To go
thither would be to deprive Lyon
of one of its most active politicians and
Emporia of one Of it's most useful citi-
zens. OF course General Harrison will
not concern himself as to Lyon county's
loss, he will look only to Alaska's gain.
We trust that the president will con-
slider the welfare and happiness OF the
Alaskans as of sufficient Importance to
warrant the appointment of Mr.. Jay.
