THE SENATE PROGRAMME.
Many Appointments Expected to be 70
 6rmed During This Week.

Many Appointments Expected to be ton.
 Grmed During This Week.
 WASHINGToN. March 20.-There is some reason to expect that the Senate will enter in earnest this week upon the business for which it was called together. So far not single nomination has been acted upon except the Cabinet appointments. ENclud- ing half a dozen army and navy promo tions, there are now 16 Presidential nomin- ations which have not yet been passed upon even in committee.
 It is, however, the intention of the committee having charge of these nomina- tions to get together either tonight ot to- morrow morning, and it Is probable that within a few days there will be some ma terial in hand upon which the Senate may act ill executive session.
 Saving the possibility of contest over an attempt to reorganize the force of em- ployes, the open sessions of the week dc not promise to be frequent, long, or inter esting, as it is hardly probable that the Committee on Privileges and Elections will be able to report on the Senatorial appoint ment cases, which are sure to prove q sub ject of discussion within that time.

Is Organization a Curse?

It Is safe to say that if organization had It's way, Grover Cleveland would not be president of these United States to-day :, And yet there is no thinking mat, whose conscience is unfettered, but believes that we have man at the helm who has an enthusiastic desire to give the people model government that he represents the will of the whole people, and therefore, that conscience is behind him in all his actions. We were travelling several weeks through the great state of New York last summer and stopped at aeveral small towns, and it Is wonderful to see the amount of good work that is being done by men who have no power full organiza- tion to command them who have been chosen by the people for their good quail ties alone. We could see nothing behind them except conscience. They may have had as much learning as the Twelve Fish ermen, but not much more.
 The result of their work was not shown in hupe piles of brick and stone, but it was strikingly Illustrated in the building up of human character. It made very groat impression upon us, and we drove on. But the sensible parent may ask "What has this to do with furnishing the house for James and Sarah " We an swer in all sincerity that 1t has great deal to do with it. If you are having your Lhhcllt lb ID tCSSSS@hJ y should have some confidence in the artist. If we tell you that the Quaker Range is the best baker, and burns less coal than any other stove in tha market, and that the world renowned Taunton 1roA works stands behind us in the statement, 1t ought to mean something. We are in position to make our word good, and the world is our witness. We can publish the names of several hundred we'll l-known people in this section who are glad to verify our statements. Our competitors are amazed at our phenomenal growth. But 1t ought to be no secret. When they walk through our several departments they see the light of heaven shining in every corner. No dark spots anywhere. When we tell you that a chamber set Is made of oak, yoI won't go home and find 1t elm. We men ton this because one of our competitors was caught that way lately, and the custo- mer came to us afterwards ard old us 90.
 Our competitor believes now that hell is on this earth. He lost his customer be- cause he lied to him. If we tell you that n mattress Is made of South American horsehair, you won't go home and find it is hogs hair It is better to be right than be rich. We don't think we would be any happier if we had a hundred thousand more than we have.
 "Does wealth bring happiness ? Look
 around and see
 The gay distress the splendid misery; Whatever fortune lavishly can pour,
 The mind annihilates-and calls for
 more."

WESTERN ROADS DIsGusTEp.
Growing Weary of Delay in Establishing
 Rates to the Fair.

GroWlhE weary of Delay in Establishing
 Rates to the Fair.
 CHICAGo, March 20.-The delay which has occurred in the establishment of rates to the Worlds Fair has cause& some of the roads in the Western Passenger Associ- ation to become disgustcd, and they have gone gunninG for bus1Hess on their own account Some of them. in fact, have made contracts to transport large parties to the Fair at rates which are under those generally considered probable for the Fair
 The men whom these roads accuse of being the cause of the delay claim in their turn that the roads which are causing the delay because they are afraid that theiI cheap rates will become generally known.
 There seems to be the making of first class TOW in the Western Passenger Asso- citation before the matter is finally adjusted, and Chairmrn Caldwell apparently has a big job cut out for him if he succeeds in keeping away from the row.
