DEATH OF MR. DINGLEY.

In the death of Nelson Dingley, of Maine, the house of Representa- tives of the United States, the Re- publican party and the newspaper fraternity loses an active and honest worker. MT, Dingley was essential ly a business man in politics; not brilliant, either as statesman or orator. but a capable administrator possessed of full knowledge Of the wants and needs eff the people, and thoroughly equipped to supply the legislation necessary to meet those ends. He was not so much a leader of the people as follower-one who could safely be trusted to obey the wishes of his constituents fearlessly and ably, and with the care and the precision of 8 patriot. The Tariff bill which bears his name is a reflex of the mans abilities-a business measure for business men Such men are invaluable in the councils of the nation, and MT. Dingley's death is a serious loss to his constituents, as well as to the country at large.
