FIFTY-SLXTH CoNGRESS,

The Importance of Republican co.,
troll of the Fifty-Sixth congress is
emphasized by the editorial COM
ments of the VlcksbCrg Dispatch.
The morning after election the Dis
patch said: "The Democrats have
made ell the great states of Illinois,
Indiana, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and
New York doubtful states for the
Republicans in a national contest,
and the Democrats did that with the
principles of 1896 nailed TO the mast
head. 1t is true the new house of
representative can do nothing for
over year, but it will be in power
when the great presidential battle is
fought in 1900. If by any chance
the presidential election should be
thrown into the house the Democrats
are sure to win
Fortunately, the country escaped
this danger. Not one of the states
mentioned will be doubtful in the
next presidential election. In the
Fifty Sixth congress the Republicans
will control twenty-six states and the
Democrats eighteen. The Republi-
cans have majority of the congress-
men in Maine, New Hampshire, Yer
mont. Massachusetts, Connecticut
Rhode Island, New Jersey, Pennsyl

Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa
, Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas, Call

This is story related by Admiral
Schley about himself The incident
occurred when he was small boy,
of course: 81 was returning from a
fishing trip one day, when, looking
down the lane, I saw big mad bull
making toward me, believing with
fury and tossing the earth with his
horns. 1 scarcely had time TO think
what to do, when 1 suddenly leaped
over the fence, only to observe the
infuriated beast tear that fence to
smithereens, and l, seeing the avenue
oi escape closed, climbed an apple
tree. 1 got perch on the topmost
limb of the tree and, would you be-
lieve it, that animal kept me there
until night, believing and butting
away at the trunk. Finally as night
drew or he lett, when 1 came down
aud went home. However, 1 was not
much alarmed at my position, but
took it coollY, feeling that was safe.
I want 10 see if that old tree which
rendered such protection to me still
stands" If it does Admiral Schley
is going to find it during his present
visit to the home of his childhood
The story is gwen In full because Of
its simplicity and modesty. Some
men relating similar experience ii
their boyhood days would have
rounded it off III different fashion
but it is seen that the hero of San
tiago sticks TO the truth. If he haC
dev1ated from the truth the story
would have been more interesting
perhaps, but we would not have be-
lieved it, as we do now.

AS to the petition: A careful examin.

more than so names of the $50 were
those of tax payers; that in many cases
two to FIVE names of members of the

same person; that at least $50 were
the names of women who have not reg

of people who have either gone from
