AN UNCERTAIN SENATE.

New York Mail and Express.
The Democratic party has secu. ed an
even one half of the membership of the
National Senate after twelve years of
minority participation in the delibera-
tions of that body. The Senate stands,
80 Republicans, A Democrats, and 5
Populists, assuming that those appointed
by the Governors of Montana and
Wyoming will be seated and that
Washington will return Republican.
Only by the aid of the casting vote of
Vice President Stevenson, therefore, can
aDemocratic majority be rallied together
in behalf of some of the legislation to
which the Democratic party is pledged;
but neither on the tariff nor the money
issues can President Cleveland look for
Endorsement of his views from his party
Senators. Senator Sherman weeks ago
pledged the passage of repeater OF the
silver purchase clause of the Sherman
law if ten Democratic Senators would
vote for it; yet Treasury Secretary
Carlisle failed to find that many friends
of honest finance among thirty nine
Democratic Senators. 1t remains to be
seen how much greater strength in his
own party can be developed for such a
proposition by President in office than
by President elect.

SATURDAY
Before and After.

Chlcag0 tribune.
Next Monday evening"" wrote the
editor of The Pigeonyille Cyclone, "our
people will be favored with treat such
as we seldom enjoy in our little city.
The world famous Yellerby Dramatic
Combination, presenting the sparkling
comedy, Wooed and Won; or, The Lost
Latchkey,' will appear at Hecker's Hall,
on the north side of the public square,
with company of artists whom it is a
pleasure to commend to the favorable
notice of all lovers of pure and refined
comedy. Wherever the Yellerby Dra-
matte Combination has played this sea-
son it has been greeted with packed
houses, and the enterdrising proprietor
of Hecker's Hall is entitled to the thanks
of the community for giving us the op-
portunity of welcoming so eminent a
company of stars and speciality artists to
our midst"
About week later the editor of The
Cyclone sat down again and wrote as
follows:
Last MONDAY night tentn-rate gang
of transformers calling themselves the
Yellerby Dramatic Combination, held
forth to slim and suffering audience
at Hecker's Hall. They performed, or
rath murdered, what they called the
sparkling comedy of Wooed and Won, q,
a dreary collection of old and moldy
chestnuts, bald headed conundrums, and
gags that wore whiskers when Noah
went into the ark. There wasn't a
sparkling feature in the entire per-
formance. 1t was a nightmare all
through, and the acting was worse
than the play. 1t there is member
of the combination who could earn a
dollar week drowning out woodchucks
or possesses enough dram; tic ability to
turn grindstone without the aid of a
prompter he didn't appear last Monday
night. The only wonder is that when
so palpable fraud as this cheap aggre-
CATION of snide actors comes to town
anybody can be found who cares to
waste half dollar to help the pestilent
humbugs on to the next town."
