affaire urgente; voici sa carte.
En- effet, IL montra une dies cartes

IF the senator's vote in executive ses. sion ike they talk in public, the noto- rio,ls purchase and sale of the position of ambassador to Italy will never be ratified by the confirmation of the pur- chaser's nomination for the position. The general belief among congressman is that President Cleveland was imposed oa by somebody, and that he was ignorant of Mr. J. J. Van AIen having contributed S5O.000 to the campaign fund in exchange for the promise of being nominated American minister 10 Ronie-it was not at that time known that the legation would be raised to an embassy. However that may be, there is no doubt that Van AleD paid the money and that he was doing some very lively "Nrcking' just before he was nominated, because of the delay.

TIE house wants to know what part the United States army had in the open ing of the Cherokee strip, under what orders, and whether the orders were violated and outrages committed on any citizen of the Uuitcd States. This will give Secretary Lamont an Oppor- iunity to show whether the soldiers are innocent or guilty of the many crimes including murdcr-they are charged with in connection with the opening of the strip. Later on Secretary HOke $ nth may be given a similar opportu- nily in connection with the numerous charges of bribery made against land office officials. Considerable written evidence has been sent to the house committee on military affairs. which has been looking into the matter.

THERE can be no doubt that many a competent girl would gladly engage in housework were it not for the fear she has of being looked down upon as a lncnial. There can be no doubt that ihc American people themselves are re- sponsible for this disinclination of the American girls and women of the work ing classes to seek and take employ mcnt as servants. because the people themselves have put a certain stigma upon that Kind of employment What is absolutely necessary in order to in- sure il pIcnitudc of good servants is to make the scrvant's work more honorable and respected.

CONGRESS is still talking.

CONGRESS is still talking. The country demands action, yet members go on spoutiug, Every senator knows just how he is going to vote and no one listens to or reads the speeches made. It is related that on one occasion Com modore Vanderbilt remarked to fresh member of ono of his boards of direc. tors, who was given to oratory: "Sil down, you lunkhead; you are here tc vote, not to talk" It ought to be pos sible to stop the flow of useless talk ir congress, but no one has authority tc do it.

THERE is one question as old as our government that apparently will never be finally settled auddisposcd of. II is that of States rights under the consti- tuition of the uDited States. The dis ctIssion in the house of the bill for the repeal of the laws for the federal super vision of presidential and congressional elections has brought the subject to the front once more, the democrats cham pionipg States rights, and maintaining that tie jaws which the bill proposes to repeal infringe upou those rights, while the republicans maintain the constitu- tional right of congress to enact laws for the supervision of all national cleo tions. The democrats, being in ma iority, will decide in favor of States rights and against the federal election laws, but by the time the question is again brought up in congress the whirli gig of time may have reversed the ma jority and the national idea will be en- dorsed. Thus it has always bean, and probably always will be on this ques- tion-

Quite q number of cowboys were in Kingman this week from Scanlon's ferry, on the Colorado, where they have been assisting in delivering cattle to the Colorado buyer, Preston Nutter. Mr. Nutter's gang of men met the cattle at the river and assumed charge of the herds as they emerged from the river on the opposite bank. Close to o,OOo head will have been delivered before the end of this week. The steers are in good condition, feed Is plentiful on the trail and the drive will no doubt be made with but very little loss to the purchaser. Only three steers were dp0yHed while crossing the river.
