Our Senate.

We have reason TO hope that We
have progressed nearly if not entirely
beyond the region of doubtful and
disputed constitutional construction;
we may presume with some degree of
confidence that the questions which
shall in the future be submitted for
determination will be questions Of ex-
pediency purely, and it is scarcely pos
sible, therefore, to imagine a situation
which will furnish an excuse for sim
pie, unqualified legi, alive obstruction
If this be true, the Senate, like the
House must submit to some concln-
five restriction Of debate, and may as
well at once adopt and obberye rules
which will permit all questions to be
considered and decided with no more
than a reasonable amount of discus.

In one aspect this compulsory pop
ular opinion requiring so august a
body to attend TO business will involve
consequences which to those who de-
plore any interference with established
customs, may seem very sad-it will
largely hinder the complete exercise
of sensational courtesy." All reforms
however, must be attended with some
sacrifices; and it is highly probable
that if senators will be a little more
considerable of the public patience, the
public will patiently endure some
diminution of the consideration they
have been accustomed TO show each
other. BAIL w. Duke in The South.

The Crittcnden Press says that it is
positively true that J. w. SHELTON, of
Marion, will he candidate for CON
gross in this district next year. The
Press says "Mr. SHELTON is man of
energy, as well as great determine
ton, but fails to give us any definite
information as the gentleman's history,
politics, etc. This editor confesses to
a large quantum of ignorance on the
score Of Mr.. SHELTON, but if he is a
good Democrat and a good fellow, we
wish him God speed in his pursuit of
a high and honorable office. Clinton
Democrat.
Mr.. SHELTON was born and reared in
Livingston county. He worked on a
farm until In his teens when he began
teaching school. After teaching for a
number of years, he came to Marion,
and began the publication of the Far
mer's Advocate, a paper devoted to
agriculture. While editing the paper,
he was also in the field lecturing and
organizing Farmers Unions. After
running the paper about a year, he
quit that business and has since been
engaged in the mercantile in Marion,
as the advertising columns of the
Press will, from time to time, testify.
AS to Mr.. Skeletons politics, he is
Democratic from Dan to Bersheba,
from Alpha to Omega, from the lake.
to the gulf, from Main. to Yub adam.
Twice he has been n candidate for the
Legislature, twice he was defeated,
and scores of times, including the two
when he went down in defeat, has he
done all in his power for the success of
his party. Yes sir, John Skelton's
Democracy is unquestioned and un-
questionable.

President Cleveland has sent hi
message to Congress upon the Haw
allan matter. The message is a strong
statement Of the situation and all the
facts connected with it, shows that the
President has been pursuing the pro
per course. The queen was forced
into surrending by the presence Of the
Uniced States troops; she surrended
with the understanding that the
United States authorities would inves-
tigate the matter and do the fair thing.
An in vestigation showed that but for
the United States soldiers, the new
government could not have succeeded,
and President Cleveland proposed TO
restore the queen if it could be done
without the use Of troops, and if she
would, when restored, hold naught
against the revolutionists. This she
to do. and the President re-
fers the whole affair to congress.
