| HARRIsON'S BA CFPONE sTIFFENED.
| Correspondence of the Gazette.
! WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-Congress is
with Us again and its sins for the next
three months are 20 be visited upon the
country. The Republicans have started
out with vigorous policy bucked up By
| the message of the president, who seems
10 have mad his backbone stiffened since
| congress adjourned. He stands up boldly
to the principles of his party and his
| message breathes n spirit or dictum which
| has surprised even the most forclbie
| leaders of the party. Harrison hitherto
! has been only a mouth-piece. He has
| been seldom consulted about any import
| ant contemplated step. As n figure head
/ he has been phenomenal success, aud
| he is still, but his message aud its tenor
| has surprised many Republicans who did
| not have much love for their executive.
| Harrison has given it out that he will not
decrease ths narrow majority in the
house by taking therpfrom aay Republic
can member for appointment to a fedrai
office. The roll call of the house on the
opening day of the session showed that
II Republicans were present, sr fifty
two less than quorum OF the majority
should one be required. The president
has further asserted that he will not give
any Republican representative an Office
ct the end OF the session who has not
remained OF his post OF duty in the house
during the entire shor, session. The
comparatively small number of members
now in the city seem TO indicate that
those who predicted that the Republicans
would have hard time to keep "a quorum
of their own here through the sessions
were correct. There are few men in the
house who have incomes for which they
are not obliged to work, and while
serving In congress most of these men
have more or less seriously neglected
their regular business or profession.
Those of them who were defeated in the
recent elections will naturally be disposei
TO begin taking up the loose ends of their
private affairs as soon Us possible so that
their incomes will not be too heavily
scaled down when their congressional
salaries cease on the fourth OF March
next. l. will take pretty strong pressure
10 keep these nou-elect in Washington
with much regularity this winter, AMI
doubtless not n few OF them will think
it not worth while to come here at all,
That this should be the case will not
show very high sense OF duty nor of
honor On the part of the defeatsi mem
bers, but the country will not suffer By
their derelictlon. if the Republican ma
jori.y in the house il thereby prevented
from rushing through some of the un-
wise legislation which their programme
calls for.
THE SPEAEERsHIP.
There IS still hunt going on for the |
speake-ship of the next house. There |
are candidates galore, and every section |
of the country will present one or more |
names for consideration. First on the |
list, Texas, looms up with Mr.. Mills, |

OBNOXIOUS LEGISLATION

! The alacrity with which congress at its
| present session has taken up the election
| bill and the actuatiug spirit apparent in
the Presidents message. leave no room
! November elections IS unheeGsd. No
| candid mind will fsil to sea that the
| spirit of malice dominates the utterauce
OF the one aud quite as plainly guides
action in the other.
The force bill ia a cowardly attack
upon the South, and the methods pro-
posed in it are not ouly an insult to
patriotic citizens in all sections. but is
in direct opposition TO the principles of
true Republicanism
The administration party in its efforts
after Capitalization ignore the wishes Of
the people, whose ancestors struck u
blow at kin2ly tyranny and won victory
for their children in this land of free
dom. whether their homes are in Maine
or Texas, CT North or South, or East or
West, aud holding in every section
as their sacred heritage the rights thus
dearly bought.
To attempt to engratt upon . repre-
sentative government the ideas OF
inonarchiai, If not autocratlc govern
ment is folly, and to believe that because
press censorship and other practices at
variance with the idea OF any government
for aud by the people have been allowed
limit TO encroachmeut upon hard won
liberty Is absurd. The Mckinley bill has
met lis d!sapproval from the people and
two years hence Its advocate will hear its
death warrant IN tones not TO be mis-
taken. The handwriting is upon the
wall. and not one pcniei, but many, are
waiting 10 interpret it.
No stronger note of warning las yet
been heard than the speech OF Mr.. Gray
in the senate in opposition to the election
bill. He grew particularly bitter as he
touched upon the creation of an officer
OF supervision, whose business it should
be 10 enter homes aud ignoring time
houorcd sanctities seek within its pre-
cincts knowledge of the name, politics
end nationality of its male innates-a
spying out which the speaker justly
characterized as u measure more infa-
nous than any which reused our ances-
try TO rebel against British tyranny.
Senator Gray closed his remarks upon
the domiciling clause with the wish that
when this supervisor knocked at his door
he might be there to meet him.
The senator's remarks brought Mr..
Spooner 20 his feet 10 assert that the OBJ
noxlous clause had been stricken out.
1t was found to be in the bill as reported,
and il was then moved TO return the bill
to the committee to be put in shane.
However much il may be pruned, it
would have to be so completely emascu-
lated as to be deprived of vitality before
it eau be made acceptable to people
whose fathers ingrained in their first
public declaration the right of personal
liberty and the sacredness of home. To
use the knife to this extent would render
passage of such a bill nonsensical il not

70 DISTURBING ELENENTS
The following is statement made by
Eras;us Wiinau of New York, takea
from his article in the North American
Review for December: With regard to
the condition of business throughout the
United States, Notwithstanding the
Clouds that lower over the commercial
horizon, and the dangers which may
fiaw from disturbances in Crest Britain,
this mag with truth be said; that, so far
as the country itself is concerned, there
never has been period in its history
when fewer disturbing elements were
present TO effect the hsalthfulness OF its
trade. The enormous extent OF the
transactions consumsted, as shown by
the clearing house returns; the great
volume of internal commerce, as shown
by the increased railway and lake ton

resources; the creation of wealth Us
