SOLONS AGAIN AT WORK
Fifty-second Congress Begins
 Its Final Session.
POSTMASTER GENERALS REPORT.

Review of the Operations in Mir. wana-
 Submits His Estimates-Bills Introduced
 Yesterday in the Senate and House Oi
 Representatives.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-The general feel ing of good humor and self-satisfaction which was noticeable among the members present at high noon yesterday, when thG second session of the Fifty-second Con- gress was called to order, has probably never been surpassed on a similar occa sion.
 The large Democratic majority were still flushed with the triumph of the recent overwhelming victory, and at the same time rejoiced in the fact that its continu- ance in powerHwas assured. Handshaking and mirth early became epidemic. Sedate old veterans relaxed their customary mo- bility of ceuntenanoe and smiled. Men grown gray with age renewed their youth and enthusiastically slapped their com panions on the back.
 The Republicans, of course, dad not share in this hilarity, but the humor of the situation relieved all feeling of re- sentiment and they viewed the exuberance of their Democratic brethren with appar- ent resignation.
 Promptly at 12 o'clock Speaker Crisp called the House to order, and the con fusion which had previously prevailed rose to their feet and Chaplain Millburn offered prayer.
 There were 224 members who answered to their names and the Speaker declared that quorum was present.
 Committees to notify the Senate and President that the House was ready for business were sent.
 The credentials of John L. McLauren, from the Sixth district of South Carolina; S. G. Hilborn, from the Third California district; Lewis B. Oneghan, from the Six teenth Ohio district; John B. Brown, from the First Maryland district, and Sykes, from the Twenty-fourth Pennsylvania dis trict, were read and approved. The mem bers elect then came forward and were sworn in.
 MT. McMillin offered a resolution pro viding that until further notice the daily hour at which the House shall convene be fixed at noon. Adopted. The report of the Utah Commission, the report of the Secretary of the Smith sonian Institute and the report submitted by the Board of Managers of the Home for Disabled Soldiers was read by title and referred.
 At 12:4O, upon motion of MT. McMillin, | the House took recess for thirty minutes in order to give the committee appointed to wait upon the President opportunity tc l report.
 When the House was again called to or der at 1:15 the committee appointed to wait upon the President reported that the President had no communication ready al present and the House adjourned for the ! day.

GEN. JAMES q. FIELD, late candidate
for the vice-presidency on the peoples
ticket, has written a letter to General
Bidwell, late candidate for the presi-
dency on the same ticket, in which he
sets forth his ideas as to the result of
the election. He characterizes the re.
suit as a great victory for the populists,
and says that, while no n who voted
for Weaver expected his election, the
party was fighting for position and
recognition, and both of these, he claims,
it has gained. After a review of the
several causes of the result, he ventures
a prophecy as to the Cleveland admins
tration which may prove interesting. He
says:
Mr.. Cleveland wins the office with all its
responsibilities, with many pledges made
by friends (sOme of them inconsistent
Upon the tariff question l do not believe
Mr.. Cleveland'S administration will come
upTto the expectations of the country.
Upon the currency, free silver and cognate
questions l believe it will utterly fail. I
think l already see some evidence (of
course not very reliable) that those two
great questions are not going to be met
either promptly or s%quarely. A policy of
how not to do tie thing will be resorted to.

toward the earth, and one which astrono
mers will await with great interest.

J.F. O'BR1EN, the defeated democratic
nominee for congress, has served notice
on the board of canvassers, through
Bangs & Fisk, his attorneys, requesting
a recount of the votes of Grand Forks
county. in so far a. they relate to the
several congressional candidates. The
intent of the petition is exposed by the
Grand Forks Herald, which comments
on the affair as follows:
States Attorney Bosard estimates that
the expense involved in sending for the
boxes and recOunting would reach $500,
while members of. the board place the ex-
penSe at 5 1,50O. It Is not claimed that
there is any merit in the "contest" as re-
CARDS this county, n it is understood
that the petitioner, Judge O'Brien, his at
torneys and the democratic committee,
prefer and expect that the board of can
vassers will deny the petition, in which
event this denial with similar refusals
from canvassers of other counties are to be
made the basis of a contest for Johnson's
seat before the packed elections committee
of the democratic house and before the
house itself, and that JOhnsOn'S seat will
in this way be stolen and O'Brien seated
therein. The plan. is feasible enough as
democratic elections committee go, and is
likely to succeed, but as a matter of policy
here in the state where the facts are
known it is a mighty poor plan for the
democrats to pursue.

If the earth's revolving machinery
should slip q cog between now and Nov.
y and lose eight hours time, or if Biela's
comet should make a squirt and reach a
certain spot in space the same number of
hours before it is due, Grover Cleveland
will not be inaugurated president of
these United States, says the Chicago
Tribune. Prof. Lewis Boss of Dudley
observatory, Albany, N. Y, says that the
orbits Of the earth and the comet will
~intersect the day mentioned, but that
the tailed aerial vagrant is not due until
eight hours after we have gone whizzing

The Mandan Independent is of the
opinion that the Missouri slope is en-
titled to one United States senator, and
puts forward the name of Geo. w. Har-
mon as best fitted for the position. The
Independent characterizes Mr.. Harmon
as "a man who is known from n end
OF the state to the other, a man who
counts his friends by the thousands, a
man who has passed through the hard
ships of pioneer life upon these prairies,
a man who in the hour of his country's
danger shouldered his musket and
marched to the front, a man who never
faltered in the discharge of duty, a man
who would reflect honor and credit upon
our state were he to represent it in the
senate chamber"

JUDGE O'BR1EN will not contest the
election of Hon. M. N. johnson, says the
Devils Lake Inter- Ocean. If the
latter's plurality had only been 200 OF
800, as was first reported, it is possible
that the judge would have taken steps
to GUST Mr.. johnson from his seat in
congress. The proceedings commenced
in Grand Forks county we're started by
Mr.. O'Brien's friends and were for the
purpose of paving the way for a contest,
In case there had been a contest the
legality of the Indian vote at the Fort
Totten precinct would have been scru-
tinized closely. At this precinct there
were over 100 votes cast, nearly all OF
which we're republican. The judge &C.
cepts his defeat gracefully, and believes
that his party and his friends did all that
was possible to achieve his Success.

Mr.. E. V. SMAL1EY tells the James
town Alert that he believes North .Da-
kota lands would be more generally
taken by actual settlers if a policy was
adopted by the railroad company OF
giving the unsold lands outright to
good settlers, on certain conditions of
cultivation. This plan has been urged
upon the company by a number OF
friends of North Dakota, who realize
that some especial effort must be made
to induce settlers to engage in mixed
rmi ng in the state. The profits of this
are unquestioned. The company has
persistently advertised North Dakota,
said Mr.. Smalley, and has done the
work intelligently and thoroughly, but
as yet the tide of immigration has not
started this way again.

for a change in the time Of electing the

of the supreme court down to the county

when the county superintendent and
school officers or when the township
