The F'f'y-second Congre IS started of
in amazing good style and bids fair tc
assist by its further efforts the success O.
the Republican Party next year. The
speakership fight engendered bad blood
in the very beginning and it dosent look
as though the same would be removed
during this session. Mr.. Mills remains
cross and crabid and Speaker Crisp
stand on his dignity, go with these two
party leaders at outs naught of good will
result. Contrary to previous customs ii
now S ems that Mr.. Springer will be
made chairman of the Ways and Means
committee, the most important c mint
tee of the House, and then another at.
front will be otfeled to MIR. Mills. No
doubt some very warm times will be had
in the House during the winter
1t is settled that Representative Cul.
bertson Of Texas will be The new men,
per of the Interstate commerce commis-
sion. AS this commission has a good
deal to do with the rights Of our people
on railroads, it is to be hoped that Mr..
Culbertson will be conservative on the
race que ii as he has hitherto been.
Mr.. Chas E. Lane, who was appointed

organizations that follow IS to select del
egates to national con 'erence to be
held next year to eff ct national organ
ization of Colored mechanics and labor
ers. The ultimate end Of such organiza-
ton is to be the establishment of man
ufacturing industries among our people.
The scheme is a good one and is fvas-
ibe.

pered to him. The debtor entered the
room, and was surprised at the excep'
tional cordiality of the pasha, who in
sited him to sit down, to take coffee,
and to converse. Presently, when he
rose to leave, the pasha pressed him to
remain, and kept him more than an
hour, until, indeed. messenger entered
the room and placed small bag on the
table before Ahmed. When the Gle btor
next rose, Ahmed took the bag from the
table and gave it to him. stating, This
