SENATE CHANGES.

The elections to be held this year will
affect nineteen seats in the United
States senate. OF these twelve are now
filled by Republicans and seven by
Democrats. The only one of the latter
that the Republicans have any hope for
is that of DAN VoORHE Es, of Indiana,
who will quite surely be returned. Most
of the Republicans are from states that
have pretty much forgotten how to elect
Democrats, but there is fair chance
for new deal in three or four Of them.
The most hopeful of these are Illinois,
California and Wisconsin. Some think
Oregon is doubtful and New Hampshire
may be getting tired of old man BLAIR.
the hobby rider, but there is better
fighting ground in New York and Con-
necticut. North Dakota and one or two
othernew states will also elect senators.
There is no immediate prospect of
changing the control Of the senate.
Counting the Montana senators for them
and the Republicans have forty-seven
to thirty-seven Democrats. They expect
also to get four more from Idaho and
Wyoming. That body is the citadel of
the monopolists and classes that want
special privileges.

WAsBINGTON's CHAIR.

Being one of the younger members of
the federal family, Minnesota is richer
in everything else than in history, or in
the possession of valuable historical rel
les. Therefore the gift to the state
historical society, last night, of the
library chair that belonged to WASH
INGToN is all the more to be appre-
ciated. because it is precious memorial
of the greatest man this continent has
ever produced, and one who had but
few peers in all the realms of history.
1t is in no spirit of extravaganza boast
ing, but simply in accordance with the
the verdict of impartial history, when
we say humanity itself assumes a new
dignity because the name of WASHING
TON has been written in its records.
He stands now, and will stand forever,
as a sublime and unapproachable
example of virtue and love OF
country. Everything that was his,
or pertained to him, will forever
be precious in the eyes of the Amer
lean people. And among all his pos
sessions there is no relic of more value
than this same chair in which he sat in
his favorite room at the Mount Vernon
home. 1t requires no great stretch of
the Imagination to see him seated in
this very chair when the dream of Amer
lean independence first flashed across
his mind. Certain it is that this quantity
upholstered piece of furniture held the
weary form of the great patriot as day
by day and night by night he worked
out the problem of popular government,
which he transmitted for the enjoyment
of the sixty millions of happy people
who now inhabit the nation he founded.
The old chair is a, rich memorial OF a
great life and a great character, and
Minnesota is proud of its possession.

THE POULTRY CHAMPION.

1t is not surprising that a very young
statesman from very new state should,
in the eXuberance of unSelfish devotion
to the interests of his people, seek to
link his name with measures that
might enroll him among the benefact-
ors of the race. This is the endeavor
of the congressman from North Dakota.
He had seen the sheep protected and
the f1eecy wool drawn over the bucolic
optic; and, in looking around for still
more lofty achievement, he struck upo n
the maternal poultry. His great and
constant endeavor has been to protect
the producer Of eggs. This he is to eff
feet by tariff Of five cents dozen on
eggs. His eloquence and persistence
have effected success W til the archi-
tects of the new tariff; but the measure
does not meet the home approval he an
ticipated. Hens are few in his state,
and the production is so limited that
the greater portion Of the eggs used is
imported, and the consumers insist that
if they have to pay five cents dozen
more they will vote against the men,
Der. The hens can't vote, so that he is
likely to lose his seat by his advocacy
of the measure.

A BLACK FLAG FIGHT.

There was opposition anticipated to
the confirmation of ex-Gov. WARMoTH
as collector of the port of New Orleans,
on the ground that he was identified, at
least in antecedents and sympathy,
with the Louisiana lottery. But denials
were put forth, and he was confir med
by the full Republican vote. Now the
Fargo Argus, the confidential repre-
sentative of the lottery interests in
North Dakota, and perpendicularly Re-
publican, cites his selection and con-
firmation as evidence of Pickwickian OPP
position to the lottery in administration
quarters. The Argus says: 1.-The fact
is that WARMoTH was governor when
the lottery bill was passed, and as gov
ernor Of Louisiana-approved the bill
and has always been known as pow
erful and steadfast friend and advocate
and defender of the measure" The
Argus is not likely to be in error as to
the record of WARMOTH, but it may
be presumed that it is aiming to allay
the apprehensions of members of the
lottery gang who want to keep on ben
eflcIary terms with HARRISON. 1t is
palpable that it is to be black flag
fight between lottery and antl-lottery
Republicans for control of the Republic
can party. The scheme doesn't have
the decency to stay in the bone yard
when thrown there.

THE Growing HOUSE.

In view of the coming census and the
apportionment to be made under it, the
question is being discussed as to the
advisability of increasing the ratio, or
adding to the membership of congress.
At the beginning of the century con-
gresham represented 10000 people.
He now has constituency exceeding
10000, and at the same time there has
been an increase in membership from
65 in the first congress to $50 III the
present one. The census will show
population approXimating 65,0o0,000 and
if the numbers in the house are kept
down to the present figures, the ratio
will be increased. about $4,000 and be
100, 900 or more. With the present ratio
the house would be swellei to 425 men,
bers. The present number makes a
large body, and is often found I'M
wieldy and cumbersome. The addi-
