The report says: The number of IL

some agreement made with the eastern
p,utocrats? Have they lost all self-re-
spect and parted with the last vestige
Of patriotism?
Why, look at the situation! The
people, in order tnat there might be
no mistake about their desires elected
to the popular branch of congress an
anti-Republican majority of 104, and
gave to the Democrats a clear majori-
ty OF 96. And yet the party, having
this magnificent majority to support its
measures, is to-day without quorum,
and parliamentary chaos prevails.
This has happened on three several oc-
casions, and thoughtful people, howev-
er much they may try, cannot help
suspecting that it is the result of def
mite programme. 1t is to be hoped
that such suspicious do injustice to the
motives of the Democratic absentees,
but these absentees should bear in
mind the fact that the course they
are pursuing threatens to do irremed-
ial injustice to the Democratic party.
The people should mark these alb
sentees and retire them to private life.

Obituary.

Our dear little friend Clarence Hen
son, son of VIM. Henson, deputy Sher-
if, was called from this world of sor-
rows to the great Unknown, Wednes-
day. April 18th. He died with con-
gestive chill. His last words were.
80 Godr' go God!' and then his spir
it took its flight to Heavenly shores.
Clarence was a very bright little
boy, loved by everyone. O. why
should one so young. and so promising
be taken from our midst? 1t is only
too truly said, death comes like a
thief in the night" and carries away
one of our most precious treasures.
What solemn thought it is, when
we see our friends gathered around the
grave of our little friend. that some
day we will be disposed of in like
manner! But what a promising
thought it is that we will pass into a
higher world. where there is love and
happiness, not sin and death.
When we see precious treasure
That we loved with all our heart,
Snatched away by Deaths cold fingers,
How our minds from earth depart!

No Quorum!

The Democratic house of representa-
tives is still without quorum, and the
business of legislation is at stand
still. The Democrats who are patri-
otic enough to remain at their post of
duty and earn their salaries can only
sit and bite their thumbs and watch
the capers of Tom Reed and Boutelle.
They have nothing else to do. They
are powerless.
The Constitution is safe in saying
that never before in the political his
tory of this country has any party
having control of the government
found itself in such a humiliating and
disastrous predicament as that which
exists in the house of representatives
at this moment. Democrats elected to
represent the people have left affairs
to take care of themselves and have
swarmed off in all directions. Chaos
presides and confusion prevails, and
the sober-minded public is beginning
to believe that this continual lack of q
quorum Is simply the manifestation of
q dark scheme to discredit the Demo-
cratic party before the country.
What do the Democrats mean?
What were they elected for? Have
they sold out and deserted the party ?
Have they retired in compliance with

From Clones.

Ed. Regsster-Spring poetry is now
| In order. but being of rather prosaic
inclination. / shall leave the poetical
| held for the educational mind and at
tempt to give you few facts which
have been observed since my last from
| this point.
Owing to the continual cold. back
ward spring, farmers out here have
done but little planting as yet; many
have had their corn ground broken tor
two weeks. and have been waiting for
a proper ''season" to come before at
tempting to plant. But gentle Anna
will come to stay in due time. and
there will be a large acreage of corn
planted.
| While 1t is fact hat all the peach.
es are killed, it is observed that the
apples are not all killed. counted
to-day twenty apple trees, and among
that number, l found eight trees in
full bloom, or what is equal to forty
per cent. of an ordinary yield. But
there will be no surplus of cider next
fall,-no more ten-cent drunks. Now
that the two antagonistic elements,
the Catholics aud the A. P. As. have
had their bloody combat, it is safe to
say that within the next decade seri-
Gus trouble will be the natural se-
quence. OF all conflicts to be dread
ed, a religious conflict is doubtless the
most serious.
Since my last. Miss Judith McMa-
hon has been married to Henry Vol
ner. The bride is an intelligent, re-
fined lady, and the groom is an ex-
emplary young man. Long may they
wave!
D. r. Adams, Fresno City, CAL, was

Mr.. A. is well pleased with California,
says that he proposes going into busi-
ness there within the next year. He
has been working in wholesale gro-
Gerry store in Fresno for the past three
years.
