CHIEF JUSTICE BAKER.

Chief Justice A. c. Baker has dis tinguished himself as one of the ablest jurists that has ever occupied that posi- tion in Arizona. Speaking of Judge Baker, the Yuma Sentinel says:
 ''Chief Justice A. c. Baker presided at the present term of the district court as the judge of the judicial district. His charge to the grand jury in regard to economy and the reduction of the ex- penses of the county was one of the best ever delivered in Yuma. His de- termination to reduce the court ex- penses of the county will be commend ed by every taxpayer interested. The prompt manner in which he discharged the duties of his important office con- mends itself to every resident of Yuma county"
 The Sentinel also adds under the head of the court calendar:

THE NEXT CONGRESS.

Col. Blanton Duncan of Kentucky, has made himself famous as Demo- cratic prophet, but he comes out this year and makes prophecy regarding a sweeping Republican victory this fall. He now says that after making criti- cal survey of all the states by districts the Republicans will have 190 members in the next house, the Democrats 138, and the Populists 2S. He says the Re- publicans will have a majority of the congressional delegations in twenty-two states, the Democrats in twelve, and the Populists in two, Democratic ma jority coming from the south and the Populist from Colorado and Nevada. In eight delegations he says no one will have majority. What gives this pre- diction importance at this time is the fact that it tallies with the prophecies that have been made by many others, especially on the general lines. The Democrats themselves admit that next congress will have handsome Repub- lican majority.
 A New York Democratic paper not long since made an estimate, on basis of the elections for the past four or five months and placed the Republican majority in the next House at 80.
 Itis interesting to examine the figures by states made by Col. Duncan for the forecast IS very conservative and full oi probability. Take Missouri: He says there will be eleven Democrats and four Republicans. This will be gain oi two. According to the calculation, Hi nois will elect fourteen Republicans this year, which is only three more than she chose in 1892. Kansas is ac- corded four Repu blicans, three Populists and one Democrat.
