Our Bold Soldier Bows.

1t is not altogether unpleasant to OBJ
serve from the report of the adjutant
general that the United States, in case
of war, could put into the field force of
nearly 100000 men. OF actual enlist
ments in the armies of both sides in the
late war there were not far from 2.600,-
600.
The army OF disciplined national
guards is not large, in spite of the en-
couragement given to it by both state
and national governments of late years
1t number only 103,2 1872 men and 8,052
officers, little body with a big head.
The great Northwest and the grand Mis-
sippi Valley would furnish great por-
ton of our soldiers in the event of
another war, and the great Burlington

Bill Submitted Already.

WAsHiNGros CRY. Dec. 1.-After q
lengthy discussion this afternoon the Re-
publican senatorial caucus agreed that the
election bill be taken UP tomorrow, With
the understanding that il be kept before
that body until finally acted upon. Fur
thermore to guard against the expected
opposition from the Democratic minority
in the line of dila,ory tactics, committee
of five senators was appointed TO cooper
ate with the Republican members OF the
committee on rules in the preparation Of .
rule TO secure closure of debate when de-
sired by the majority. The old caucus
committee on order of business was reap
poin ted and instructed to prepare pro-
gramme to govern the proceedings Of the
Senate after the election bill is disposed of.
1t is stated that no votes were cast against
these determinations of tn caucus.
About thirty Republican representatives
got together this afternoon after the ad-
journnent of the House and Informally
discussed the reapportionment question.
Nearly all the leading Republicans were
present. The only conclusions reached
were that for the present there was no rea-
son TO hold the party caucus. and the CEN
su COMMITTEES should be left free to deal
h he m 1t er. Several OF those present
said decision had been reached as to
wheth r the apportionment bill should be
passed, but ach one personally insisted
that the bill would unquestionably be
