The WhirIigig of Politics.

The National democratic committee has
undertaken heavy task in its effort to de
feat representative Dayton, of West Virginia,
who put the author of the Wilson tariff bill
out of Congress. Cumberland NcrS.
Sometime ago "Savoyard, a standing
contributor to the Washington Post,
writing of really great men kept in Con-
yrcss by saeacious constituents, said
William l.. Wilson, the orator, the scholar,
the thinker, the statesman, the gentleman,
the Christian, was repudiatcd. The name
of his successor do not now recall.
The JOURNAL, too, could not remem-
beI the name Of the man "Who put the
author of the Wilson tariff bill out of
Congress.
Hence, "Savoyard" seconded by the
JOURNAL, should thank the .Nc~~ for the
Dayton "Reminiscences.
Both can now remember quite readily
that Dayton is his name; indeed, on
our part we are sure it is Dayton.
The man, however, who put the Will
son bill itself out of Congress was A. p,
German, and the man who put A. p.
German out of Congress was George L..
Wellington.
If the .NewS retortS that Mr.. German
re-takes the place which, as an enemy of
the Wilson bill, it should explain that he
does 50 in defiance of Il popular majority
against him of 1891.
Dayton, meanwhile. cannot fairly re-
turn with majority of against him.
Lastly, what of Wilson:
