except that 1t will pass, and even
that looked a little shaky for a

Qleer things happen in politics
AllhOug Mr.. Crisp was elected tC
his FIRST term as Speaker CT the
House as an auti Cleveland man

The unexpired term Of the late
Senator CJlquilt, and who has an.

ayOwed candidate.
ThcIe is a difference Of opinion as
to the wisdom of the authorities in
having President Cleveland follow

every time he p0kes his nose ont o.
the White House for a drive or a
walk. Those WHO think it silly
are not willing to admit that tht
body guard is any protection
even If protection were needed,
which they deny. They say, and
your correspondent agrees Will
them, that II would be well nigh
impossible without radical
change of customs as old as
the White House TO so sur
round the person Of the Presi
dent as to make 1t lmpOsSi
BILE for a murderously inclined
crank of the Gliteau or Booth
brand to get to him, aud that The
present alleged prec lu;ions aie

will 0e closely followed by a time
when we shall need no President

now that the members Of The
House are about to get the Op

acts that there is a cessation Of
The anti.sugar trust talk among
them, This may signify nothing
l. may be merely a coincidence

was first adopted by the Senate,
are now SAVING nothing in steen

of the Senate Finance committee

opposition, or, it may be that tbC
Fragments of those very slIch
takers who represent the poor
dJwntr0dden sugar trust IN Wash
IinglOn have been SO convincing
that they have destroyed the OF

Entertainment announced for Sat
urday night was itpOned until
this week when it will be giver
out of doors, because the MONEY
to pay for the hall could not b'
