FeatherSton, who IS a native Of

INTO the hands of Powell Clayton's

and was put up as the Wheel candl-

the Republican majority expelled
Mr. Cate, who is entitled to the seat,
and presented it to Mr.. Featherston,
Since then Featherston has been as
reliably Republican as Reed & Co..
desired, and in consequence Quay
and Belden will make q special effort
to elect him next fall.
Feathcrston is now endorsed by

Pennsylvania, as one party and
Featherton as a good Republican,
For on nearly all party questions he

On the contested election case Of

Republicans, On the dependent

the rules and pass the bill, he voted
with the republicans. On the con.
tested election of Waddell VS. Wiso
he voted with the republicans, On
all appeals from the decisions of the
Speaker and questions involving free
coinage and other questions of vast
interest to the West and South he
voted with the Republicans. He
voted with the republicans to ccn'
