Her8we have the whole pack-Bhnche, Tray and

critics imagine that the commission referred new
business and not one Of them understands that the
reference entirely the freight already coming
to st. Louis. but now unloaded ON the east side in
stead Of the west size of the river. Apparently
they see in the cut of the arbitrary the wonderful!
touch Of the magicans wand which instantly doubles
the object touched. The merchant and manufac
turer cannot be persuaded such Illusions, however
and they are likely TO appreciate the grave mpor-

with the freight problem and their personality is
such that they may be safely trusted.

ORGANIZING THE HOUSE.

The forecast that Representative Joseph q. Can
non Of the Eighteenth Illinois District will receive
the Republican caucus nomination for Speaker OF
the House In the Fifty ninth Congress and be elected
with little opposition IS doubtless correct Over
Representative Burton Of the Cleveland District Of
Ohio any other possible rival. he has decisive
advantage in the fact that the caucus will be held
three days before the meeting of Congress, while
some members will he still absent from. Washing
anu before the sharp divisions in the ranks Of
the majority members. which bound to break
out later IN the session have had time take def
mite shape.
lf the election Of the Speaker were to be delayed
until after the holidays Mr. Cannon could not have
the caucus nomination "f his fellow Republican
members with anything like unanimity. His die
tl;oral assertion that there must I've only State

But it is his standpatism against tariff reciprocity
and tariff revision in any form that will bring ="
Mr. Cannon the most persistent. uncompromisinv
ard intractai,le opposition Of large and powerful
minority Of the Republican membership.
