CONGRESS kDjOURNS.

Congress adjourned last Friday.
The main purpose for which the extra
session had been convened had been
accomplished by the passage Of the
silver repeal bill, and as it was almost
an impossibiity to maintaina quorum
in either house, adjournment was
agreed upon. The regular session be
gins in December.
The close of the session was eXCit-
ing. The urgent deficiency bill was
the last measure considered. All the
items were agreed to except Senate
provision appropristing So, 900 to pay
the private secretaries Of Senators for
the months of October and Novem-
Der. 1890, when Congress was not in
session. The House objected to max
ing the appropriation. Senator Cock
rell sent word that the bill should not
pass unless the item was inserted.
The House was ready to back down,
when Mr.. Hutchinson, of Texas,
stepped into the ring. He tilibus-
tered until the hour for adjournment
arrived, and the bill failed of passage.
1t was the only way to defeat Mr..
Cockrell.
The incident brought to public
notice what has long been scanda-
lous practice of certain Senators. The
money allowed for the pay of private
secretaries is turned over by these
men to their own families. Senator
Quay's son is one of the beneiiciaries.
Senator Georges daughter gets the
pay allowed her father for private
secretary. Others on this payroll are
sons Of Senators Cockrell, Pugh, Nor
gan, Jones of Arkansas and Power,
son-in-law of Senator Dolph, and
many other family relatives. Ex-Sen-
ator Reagan's wife used to get this
sort of pay.
1t is to be hoped that this exposure
of such gross nepotism will have the
effect of breaking it up. 1t is shame
full abuse.

Some Remarks by Senator Voorhees,.

Senator Daniel w. Voorhees,, the
able chairman Of the Senate commit
tee on finance, spoke as follows to a
newspaper correspondent few days
ago: The adjournment of this long
to aforementioned session ofCongresS
brings with it a great sense of relief.
We met amid the crash Of business
disasters, bank failures. and all the
distressful incidents Of one of the
worst financial panics ever known in
this or any other country. We ad-
journ with quiet business circles, and
a fair degree of restored confidence
prevailing in all parts of the country.
1t will, of course, take time for the
various business pursuits to fully re-
cover from the overwhelming finan-
cial shock and depression which have
afflicted the country for the last six
months, but the signs of healthy im-
provement are now visible on every
hand, and good omens for the EN-
ployment of labor cheer us from all
quarters. With careful, fair, and
honest revision of tariff taxation, now
TO follow at the regular session, only
thirty days distant, | predict that we
will enter upon a solid and lasting
career of prosperity for the labo:ing
and producing masses of every sec
ton of our beloved and glorious I'm

TUESDAYS ELECTIONS.

The elections held on Tuesday are
rather more comforting to the Repnb-
LEANS than to the Democrats, the
former having held their own at all
points and taken advantage of the
weak points presented by the latter.
InNew York the Republicans gained
a complete victory over the Demo
Gratis. The nominees of the latter
party were men who had been set up
bv the machine, without regard TO
the wishes of the people. A conspic-
uously unsatisfactory nomination was
that of Judge Maynard for the court
of appeals. The people revolted in
every section Of the State, and Judge
MAYNARD and the entire ticket were
defeated by about $4,000 majority. In
The city Of Brooklyn the people
smashed Il VIGOROUSLY corrupt ring
and elected Republican mayor.
In Virginia the Democrats swept
the State, and Col. Charles I. OFer-
rail- was elected governor by an over
whe!ming majority. The legislature,
which will elect two Senators, is large
" Democratic.
Governor BoieS was defeated in
Iowa bv Frank ID. Jackson by about
-. 600 majority, and the Republicans
.cain secure control Of the State.
The fercest fight was waged in
Ohio. where Governor Mckinley was
a candidate for reelection against
Lawrence II. Neal The Republicans
made tremendous effort, and were
victorious by a majority of some
thing like $4,000.
The Democrats of Kentucky elected
by their usual majority II Legislature
that will return Democrat to the
United States Senate.
Massachusetts elected Frederick T.
Greenhalge, Republican, governor,
defeating John f. Russell, Democrat,
by about $4,000 majority. VIM. f.
Russell Democrat, has been governor
for two terms.
Maryland, as usual, went soiidly
Democratic, Smith being elected
comptroller by about 90, 900 majority,
while all of the seven judges elected
are Democrats.
Judge A. Hunter Boyd is elected
Judge of the judicial district in Mary
land composed of Washington, Ale
gany and Garrett counties by 2G4 ma
jority.
The entire Republican ticket was
elected in Washington county, Md,
although for the judgeship \. II.
Boyd had majority of $50 over b.
A. Richmond. Charles II. Herbert
is elected sheriff over \. NJ. Flora by
about 200 majority. The Republicans
elected to the legislature are Norman

Fahrney and j. b. Cromer The com
missioners elected are Henry c. Foltz
and Samuel S. Stoutfer
Frederick county, Md, also went

and that her suiferings and struggles
in the dark tomb must have been hor-
rible in the extreme.

THE Republicans of Ohio have been
making a great fuss over Senator
John Sherman and loudly proclaim
that to him is due the credit Of the
passage of the silver repeal bill. The
evidence goes to show that Senator
Sherman's influence for the bill was
not at all tremendous. He voted for
it, but at heart he scarcely favored it.
The truth is, Senator Sherman's
standing as a financier is pretty low
inst now. The bill just repealed, and
for which many able financiers blame
the recent panic to large extent,
was the product of his genius. As a
prophet, he is likewise at a discount.
About a month before the passage of
the bill he declared in the strongest
terms that unconditionalrepeal would
never pass the Senate. This discour-
aged the friends OF the bill and EN-
boldened it's enemies in their filibus-
teripg tactics. Yet in few weeks his
prophecy was discredited and the bill
nassed by a large majority. Senator
Sherman has long posed as great
man-but he isn't.
