People who are superstitious enough to be-
lieve in ''luck" and who are acquainted with
the speakership situation will probably bet
evenly on the success of either Representative
Cannon or Representative d. B. Henderson.
Those two gentlemen are both member of the
appropriations committee and when saturday
comes they will, with the other candidates,
move their headquarters to the House end Of
the Capitol, and, from certain committee
rooms, will conduct their respective campaigns
until the caucus commences business
Among old employees of the House
the room OF the appropriations committee, no
matter where 1t is situated, is always regarded
as the apartment from which candidate can
90 out a winner, but it may be that the two as
pirants will break the spell. During the Forty
fifth and Forty-sixth Congresses Mr.. Randall was
Speaker and In each Of those contests he used
the appropriations committee room as his
headquarters. When the Forty-eighth Con-
the head Of the minority Of the
committee on ways and means and he selected
the ways and means room as his station. Mr..
Carlisle was junior member of the same COM
mittee, and, as the two candidates could not
occupy the same room, the Kentuckian moved
over into the appropriations room and was
elected Speaker. Now Mr.. Cannon will take
one Of the two appropriations rooms and Mr..
Henderson the other.
MR. REEDS ROOM.
As senior member Of the committee on rules
Mr.. Reed could take poss ession of the Speakers
room and from that point of vantage pull the
strings, but that he will not do. The probable
ity Is that Mr.. Reed win occupy the room Of
the committee on ways and means Messrs.
Burrows and Mckinley also have titles to seats
IN that room, but they will gracefully waive
their rights in favor OF Mr.. Reed, and viii re-
tire to the rooms, respectively, Of the commit
tee ON military affairs and rivers and halbors.

Love, Law and Husbands:

There is something inconsistent in
the connection of love, law and hus-
bands. If a woman's husba is
killed in railroad accident she can
only receive $5, 900 for his life as .
compensation for loss of compan-
ion, support and the other good
things a husband is supposed to rep
resent. But if in a year or SO after
ward some gay deceiver trihes with
the dear creature 8 ection, gets her
consent to again enter the marriage
state and then jilts her, 500, 900 is
demanded and sometimes granted to
heal her wounds. All this goes to
show that q sound expectancy is
much more valua BILE than a mangled
and dead husband to the ordinary
woman.

J The friends of General Butler have
been canvassing the vote cast for him
In New York in 1884, when he was q
candidate for the Presidency on the
Labor ticket, in opposition to James
G. Blaine and Grover Cleveland. The
result is they have learned beyond the
possibility of doubt that over 1000
of these votes were counted for Mr..
Cleveland, and as he was elected by
New York, with a plurality of but
/ ,047. Il shows that for the past four
years Mr.. Cleveland has held the office
OF President of these United States
illegally. 1t Is said that General But
Ter and bis friends intend in short
time TO make all the facts of the matter
public, and II is to be hoped they will.
We have no doubt but the same course
would have been pursued at the last
election had there been the slightest
possibility Of the Democratic leaders
carrying it into effect, hut this time
the odds were too great for them to
attempt such high-handed measure

tits difficult to see what effect the Sem

ton, may be duly commemorated,
Tuesday, the 30th day of April, 1889,
is hereby declared to be national hol
iday throughout the United States. u
This bill has already been passed by
the Senate, and will no doubt be CON
Cured in by the House, but the only
effect it can have will be TO close the
United States Offices, as it is beyond
the power of Congress to make holi-
day for any State. This is matter
that belongs TO the States themselves,
and il their legislatures see fit to make
that day, or any other day holiday,
it is all right, but until they do so the
banks will continue to transact their
business, stores will be open, and the
different workshops and industries be
in full blast, the same as on any other
day. II might have been well for Con-
gress 20 recommend that the people
observe this day as a holiday, but any
thing beyond that seems too much like

The number of divorce cases befo

The number of divorce cases before
the present Legislature ia almost
sufficient to cause firm belief in the
theory that marriage is a failure.
Thus far there have been large mum
Der of cases acted upon, but still they
come, aud 1t almost seems that there is
no end 10 the number. In almost
every case the vito is the applicant,
and Ii Is noticeable that the majority
OF them are young AID quite attrac.
tive. The fact that there are so many
applications to have the nuptial bonds
severed shows that there is something
radically wrong, and it is not to be
supposed tina. in every Instance the
fault Is altogether on one side, The
truth is, there are too many marriages
entered into hastily and without due
consideration with the consequence oil
unhappy lives and subsequent di
vorces. Many young people do moi
take time to study or understand each
others dispositions before they rush
of and become united "until death
doth US part" and in short time are
before the courts or the Legisla ure,
begging to have the bonds Embossed
If more thought or consideration was
used during courtship, there would no
doubt be fewer divorces.

Whitney. He, 0! all the others, is the

be forgotten that even in his case the

raising the money for the purpose of

his Republican predecessors. But
nevertheless he has proved wide

tlon signed by over ., 500 persons, in
