The Washington times., 1895-03-03

One hundred and flfty-nine Congressman
will make their official debut before the ma
tion tomorrow in Washington. They are
the men who for the next two years viii play
an important part in guiding the great lum-
bering ship Of state into the quiet waters OF
peace, happiness, and prosperity, or OF
wrecking it upon the shoals of disquiet, the
rocks Of turmoil or the lee shore of failure.
With Few exceptions, nearly all OF these
legislators are newcomers before the public
eye. They were swept into Office by the
great Republican tidal wave of last Novem-
ber. Many of them, when they accepted the
nomination, had little hope ofsuccess. An
unusually large number are young men, and
with young blood. young vigor, and young
understanding the Fifty-fourth Congress may
make a reputation for itself which will as
tound the old-timers who have grown to re-
gard themselves as Indispensable to the ma
tion.
There are upward OF fifty portraits in the
group and they are the representative men
of The new Congress The short biographies
were obtained directly from their subjects,
and they can best tell the story Of who and
what the new men are. Here they are:

Frank at the age of twelve to help his mother

mother became blind when the boy was but
