,ms L,IItEFIELp's DENOMINATION.

The present session of congress has
given Mr.. Littlefleld Of the Second
Maine district a national reputation.
Upon two questions he has opposed
the action Of the majority Of his
party. He maintained that Mr.. ROD
erts OF Utah should be allowed to
take his seat in the house, and should
then be expelled, if expulsion was
what he deserved. Mr.. Llttiefield
also insisted upon free trade between
Porto Rico and the United States.
Upon both these subjects he spoke
with conspicuous ability. The other
day the republicans Of his district
gave him denomination. 1--WE re-
gard with iustfiable PRIDE they
said. "the position of national prom
inence early achieved by the Hon.
Charles f.. Littlefeld, our represen-
tative in congress; we reaffirm our
profound confidence in his wisdom,
ability and patriotism, and fully en-
dorse the action taken by him upon
the great questions that have been
and are now pending in congress,
and we cordially commend him to
the republican voters Of the district,
as well rs to all others who believe
in eIecting to congress men of
strength, capacity and answering
honor"
If in the congressional delegation for
Wisconsin, with their experience of
from four to eight years, there were
to be found one Littleheld, there
might he some consistency in the
clamOr for their continuance. Mr..
Littlefield has in one unfinished term
won more fame as a statesman
than our member has attained in
four terms, or could in as many
more.
