the value to health of the pure liquid

WHO GETS THE VOTES
CONTEST MAY BE IN THE NEW
STATES.
Utah, Arizona and New Mexico, with Their
Six Senators, May Determine the Political
Complexion of the Upper House-Politi-
cal Classification of Governors.
Point Overlooked.

According TO a Washington correspon-
dent point that has been overlooked in
computing the political complexion of the
next Senate is the admission of Utah
with two United States Senator's The
act of the last session of Congress admit
ting Utah provides that in March, 1895,
the constitutional convention shall be
held. On the first Tuesday after the first
Monday in November of that year the
constitution is to be submitted to the peo-
pie, and if ratified and found by the
President to be in accordance with the
act he will issue n proclamation admitting
it as State. The act also provides that
a representative of the LIVth Congress
shall be elected at the same time the vote
Is taken upon the constitution, also that
State officers and n legislature shall be
chosen. and that if the constitution is
ratified the legislature shall Immediately
meet and elect two United States Sena-
tors.
As there's about month from the time
the election is held until the LINth Con-
gress meets, there will be ample time to
have all the formalities complied with and
Utah proclaimed n State in time for its
Senator's and Representatives to partici-
pate in the organization of the next Con-
gress. This would make in all ninety
Senators, and, as the new Senate now
stands, the politics of the Utah Senators
would cut an important figure.
Another probability which arises is the
admission of both New Mexico and Ari-
IONA, which may be accomplished in
time, SO that four more Senators would
participate in the organization of the next
Senate. Bills have already passed the
House for the admission of both these
Territories. The Senate Committee on
Territories has reported them favorably
to the Senate and they are now on the
calendar. Senators of both parties have
been urging their passage, and it is more
than likely that neither party would OPP
pose them, because of the effect it would
have upon the elections, as the people are
anxious for their admission and would re-
sent opposition by any party to that end.
1t is, therefore, quite likely that the
battle for the control of the Senate will
yet be fought out in Utah. New Mexico,
and Arizona next year. The admission
Of these new States would make a total
of ninety-four Senators, and any party
to control would need forty-eight for a
majority. With the Vice President the
Democrats could control the Senate with
fOrty-seven Senators.

FORTUNE FROM A ROSE.

How the Famous American Beauty Was
Discovered by "A Gardener.
Here is pretty and interesting
story about the origin OF that most
beautiful OF flowers, the American
beauty rose. says the Boston Post.
The late George Bancroft, besides be-
ing a historian and scholar, was one
of the first amateur rose growers in
America. Every year he imported
cuttings from the leading flower grow.

when old Kaiser William was king
allowed the American historian to
have slip of whatever he might
fancy in the royal Conservatives. Mr..
Bancroft's gardener used to cultivate

In the west end OF Washington. ID. G.
Mrs. Grant had florist named Field
in charge Of the White House con-
servatOry. He was rose grower Of
rare merit and skill in his artistic
work.
One day he happened into the Old
building where Mr.. Bancroft's gar
dener potted his plants Over I'm a
corner he observed a rose of a variety
utterly unknown to him, and Of won
derful size and perfection in form and
color. Where did this come FROM"
he carelesSly inquired OF his rose
growing confrere. ooh. it is an Off
shoot from some cuttings we imported
from Germany" the man replied. 1t
was evident to Mr.. Field that the
other did not in the least comprehend
the value of the new plant. After
some talk Mr.. Field bought the cut
ting he had seen for So. A year
thereafter, when he had propagated
his new purchase and become con-
WINGED that he had new and very
valuable variety of rose, which he
named the American beauty, he sold
his find for s., 900, the most wonder
full result Of the Investment Of So On
record. To follow his luck little
further. Mr.. Field invested his easily
earned SIS. 900 in lands near Washing

years he sold for $50. 900. Truth il
sometimes stranger than fiction.

VOTE OF THE HOUSE BY STATES.

The Situation of the House If Called On
to Elect the President.
The Constitution of the United States
provides that in the event of failure of a
candidate for President to obtain a ma
jority of all the votes in the electoral
college then the choice of President shall
be made by the House of Representa-
tives.
The House, however, does not vote in
the usual way i'll passing laws; the vote
Is taken by States, each State having
only one vote. How that vote shall be
cast ia determined by each States dele
CATION, the majority ruling. In case of a
tie in the State delegation, then the vote
of that State does not count.
In the event of the next Presidential
election being cast into the House the
Republicans will have the choice of
President, as will be seen by the follow
ing lists. Twenty States have elected
Republican delegations:
Colorado, New Hampshire.
