known faces missing from the lower house
of the next congress,
Mr. Culberson of Texas, one of the pa
triarchs on the democratic side, retires
He could have kept coming to Washington
as long as he liked, but twenty continuous
years have satisfied him.
Mr. Bryan, the young Nebraska states

single tariff speech, has positively de-
clined to stand for denomination, but it
is believed he has an ambition for the
Senate.
