In the house and senate who have un-
doubleday embarked on careers which
will revolve about the huge marble build
ing on Capitol HILL Some n Of them
may live TO step into the shoes Of Cap
tain Bassett, for instance, the aged and

chamber over 60 years ago and is ap-
parently good for several years more.
Some Of them may become plain, ordi-
nary, everyday doorkeepors Of the house

There is one man watching a senate
door these days who has occupied that
one position for IA years. For years be-
fore he began this work he was similar
ly employed in the house Of representa-
tives. The pay Of q doorkeeper is not
very large, and the distinction which Mt
taches 10 the place is absolutely nil. The
work Is not arduous, however, and the
man who fulfllsit does not have to use
either his hands OF his brains to any ex.
tent-a fact which seems to have had
weight with some Of the doorkeepers.

they might display less anxiety to con.

The Washington correspondent
Of the Philadelphia Press speaks
IN complimentary terms Of Dele
gate Joseph, as follows:
Dr.Anthony Joseph, delegate lin
the House for the Territory Of
New Mexico, has labored most dill
gently and in the face Of dis
couragement on every hand during
the past ten years, and now the
fruition of his hope is in sight. 1t
seems most likely that before the
close of the second term of the
Fifty-third Congress the Ter
ritory of New Mexico will have
attained the sovereignty of state
hood. DR.. Joseph has been con-
fronted constantly with the al
most unanswerable arl;usent that
fully one half of the people Of his
Territory speak n foreign language,
and are therefore not thoroughly
Americanized. This is now con-
coded by public men to be the mis-
fortune rather than the fault Of the
people Of New Mexico. Their GUS
toms as well as their traditions are
inherited from the most ancient
European civilization of North
America. They are loyal to this
country, and are rapidly acquiring
and extending within their borders
the knowledge and use of our own
language. That argument can no
longer stand in the way of their
right to local enforcement.
