feebly defends himself from the charge
of retaining Republicans in office by
saying that the power of removing and
appointing is not his-that his hands
are tied by those higher in authority.
Come off, Joseph. Your deputy COM

pains in the chest and shoulder blades,

Dear reader. you have not tried Drs

some of the best points. However, he
did not confine himself to party ques-
uons, bait went on record on several
business matters. He presented the
claims of his district in good man
ner, and managed to have things done
for that district that no one thought
possible to get. On the committees he
was an active member and took a live

A W. WINS,
from the Dixie land of Utah, was the
most earnest, concise speaker in the
House He was very conservative in
his views and was never unreasonable
in any of his arguments. On the Re-
publican side he was listened to with
attention. and his opinion had great
weight with the majority members. He
was as fearless as he was talented in
debate, and no question of personal in
terest could sway him in any matter.
His great speech was made on the
question of silk bounty, when he was
convincing, the more so when it was
considered that any bounty would BEN
eft his part of the country. his stand
seems the more patriotic and honest.
He spoke well on all other political
questions, showing a view of political
economy that is deep and somewhat
original. On business matters he was
one of the most respected members
He was honest, fair and always inter-
ested in what was for the interest OF

AIurmurs came from members on the

casting their vote in the required way
and even into doing the opposite Of that
which they had pledged themselves to
