/ important part in the next House OF
' Representatives There will De sixteen
OF them in the Fifty-first Congress Each
/ Of these men ate in favor OF an extra ses-
sion and there now seems mo- doubt but
I that an extra session VIII be called about
the 2Wh oi April as Sine Republican
members want 10. and are already urging
upon General Harrison ifs necessity.
Tie Southern Republican members
have already formed "a close corporation
as % were, and are going fO take an im
| pOrlant part in the organization of the
/ House Their vote will be cast sOlidlv
| for Speaker and for clerk, and the elec.
/ tiOn of the men who secure 10 is practi.
| cally assured They are not very par
/ ticular iu their choice for Speaker. All
! they want isa promise from the candidate
whom they support of proper recognition
They Will insist upon having the chair
/ manship of the Committee ON Elections
and the Committee on Education. They
win insist upon Mr. Houk of TENNESSEE
| being made chairman of the ommittee

there Is some DOUBT whether they can
succeed in any of these cases. for il is
probable that the Democrats will take
+ tbe advice OF Colonel Oates, of Alabama
and ilibuster against the unseating Of a
single Democrat in This event,
F me Republican majority being
about six they can never get p quorum
/ together when the Democrats refuse 10
vote, and consequently they viii De
robbed of all power OF unseating Dem
Gratis. This will be severe blow n car
ried ont 90 fhis close corporation called
Southern Republicans bur they say
the Democrats viii not dave 20 resort 90
such measures.
The Southern Republicans will favor
the election Of Nr. Edward Mcpherson
as clerk of thc House. i0r they accede 90
him tle credit of carrying many Con.
gressi0gal districts which were regarded
MS doubtful They want HIM also De-
cause lr agrees Wlth them ln their pro-
u0scd method of trimming out Southern
Democrats Mr. Mcpherson will proba-
