It is not q strange thing to
hear of members Of congress
and state legislatures taking
brides, but it is quite q different
matter when the receiver ac-
knowledges the corn and shows
the money. This is what hap
pened in the Legislature Of the
new state of Washington the
other day. A member arose and
exhibited ten IS bills, which he
said had been given him in con-
sideration Of his promise to vote
for @. III. Calkins for United
States senator. He sent the
money to the speakers desk and
resumed his seat. It wiltshire
the average reader that the
wild western statesman is rather
fresh. The ordinary member
would have taken q bigger pile
and kept his mouth shut about
it, if what one hears Of legisla-
lures north and west Of these
parts be true.

The public printing contest has
been decided Id favor Of Josephus
Daniels, the present incumbent Of
the Office. The Democratic caucus
voted unanimously to re-elect him;
and the JOINT committee on public
printing, after hearing all that
everybody had to say on the sub
ject, reported that the work j. well
done under the existing order Of
things, that the price is fair to the
state, and that there is no reason for
changing the contract between the
state and the public printer. The
report was adopted, and 50 the mat
ter was settled; but that did mot
end the war The anti-Daniels
papers have kept right on with their
bombardment; but Josephus smiles
a smile that is child-like and bland,
and gives them to understand that
he will take no further notice Of
them. He can very we'll afford 10
take this course, as he has got the
coon and gone on with his printing
contract. Josephos began life at M
early age; and has not been an edi

The action OF the Alabama
senate in laying aside the bill
appropriating a sum of money
for q state exhibitat the Column
bian exposition, pending the
contest over the force bill in
congress, is q fine piece Of bum
combe, but it is not business. II
it is worth anything to the South

should not let a partisan act Of

embracing the opportunity To

1t is one of Speaker Reeds
unwritten rules that his mathe-
matics must not be disputed.
The other day, the point was
made that q quorum was not
present. The speaker ran his
eye over the House and an
nounced that 1863 members were
in their seats. Mr.. Springer
challenged the count, but the
speaker refused 70 entertain the
protest. Several newspaper cor
respondents counted the mem
bers, and arrived at the same
result, namely, that there were
but l07 members present. What
Speaker Reed does not know
about counting il not worth
knowing. When he cannot see
members enough 10 make q
quorum, his imagination helps
him out and solves the problem.

a Successful Experiment..

About LOO ounces oil sulphides
were shipped TO the Selby smelling
works from the Holmes mine last
month, and netted $775 above all ex.
penses The sulphides came from 70
tons Of refuse ore from the Holmes
waste dumps, treated by the lesching
process as an experiment.
The success attending the frst trial
has encouraged the Holmes people so
much that works having the capacity
for treating 100 tons of Gre per day are
to be erected. There are FULLY 100000
tons Of refuse ore on the dumps, as
