bers of the Press Club, by whom he
was entertained, and in the evening
he delivered lecture ON his African
trip, before the Geographic Society,
and friends. This lecture was deliv-
cred in the largest hall in the city, ex-
tending the full length of a block and
holding 5000 people, and it was
crowded to the doors, and many were
not able to secure seats. It was eX-
pected some reference would be made
to politics, but the subject was not
even remotely alluded to.
1t is likely to be long time before
the Republicans gain control OF the
House again. Reapportionmant of
representation and re-districting aud
"gerrymandering" of the states, prom
Use to give the Democrats hold upon
the situation until at least the next
ten year census period. They will
pass an act to fix the representation
in Congress to correspond to the in-
creased population. Many Of the
states will also "gerrvmander" the dis
tricts to suit the Democratic ideas,
thus depriving the Republicans of
many districts. THIS is considered
legitimate fruits of victory and par
ties have always taken advantage of
it.
There will be large number of
what are called elaine ducks" for the
Administration to take care of after
the 4th of March. These peculiar an
imals are defeated candidates, old
politicians oct of jobs, whom the Ad-
ministration feels it a duty to provide
for in some way. One Of the leading
ones just now is Senator Carter, of
Montana, whose legislature has gone
Democratic. Carter it will be remem-
bered was Chairman of the Republi-
can National Committee when Cleve-
land defeated Blaine. It is now sug-
gested that he Is to be provided for by
putting him IN Hitchcock's place as
Postmaster General. Others will be
taken care OF in comfortable berths.
There is much talk here now of an
extra session OF Congress immediate
ly after the present one expires
March 4th. The Democrats can force
this by refusing to permit the passage
of the annual appropriation bills dur
ing the coming short session, and in
this way cut off all appropriations,
thus forcing theiPresident to call an
extra session. If this is not done the
Democrats will not get control of the
House until December next, year
from now. 1t has also been intimat
ed that the President may call an ex-
ira session to consider the tsriff, as
the people have spoken and are not
satisfied with the present law upon
that subject.
Already the struggle is on for the
important offices of the House, aud

1t is hard to understand why Dem

JOHN KEARNS,
Fourth Congressional Districts, N. J.
Mr.. Kearns is too game loser to
take any credit from the Republicans
for the little they gained at the last
election. Mr.. Wood was too popular
and too good man to be defeated.
The idea that the Democrats found an
intrigue necessary to gain at the last
election seems preposterous.

Great is Industrial Trenton. Great
also is the newspaper esta blishment

Trenton truly is great-not i'll pop

bestowed upon this city of the Della

tyranny, was not conferred in vain.

RESOLUTIONS.

On Sunday, June 19rh, at 9:15 p. M.
the sweet spirit Of Mrs. Julia Clifton
Blair ~inged its flight to that better
and brighter world. Fitting indeed
dies it seem that this home-going Of
our beloved friend should have occurred
On the SABBATH day, when q holier
brightness seems to mark the sunshine,
and when there is no buzz of voices,
nor business nor crowd anywhere bat
at church." The Woman's Foreign
Missionary Society Of the Methodist
Church has lost one Of its lifelong
members, and staunchest advocates,
ana in consequence thereof we come at
this time to cast a spray Of fragrant
flowers, as it were. over the last rest
ing place of this our tender, loving
friend, and express sympathy and con-
dolence to those especially bereaved.
Therefore be it Resolved;
1st, That deeply deplore the
death of our friend, who was called
away in the prime Of her life. Not on
! ly will she be missed by the women of
the Foreign Missionary Society OF the
Methodist Church, but from all church
and social circles of u town. Com
ing to Tupelo a. she did in the very
heydey of her young womanhood, she
was from that time on an enthusiastic
and faithful leader in all that pertalned
to the betterment of the social and
! church life of the town. More espec-
tally however, was she identifi I'd with
the Methodist church of Tupelo. and
for many, many years wa she n OF
the leading spirits in our Foreign Mis-
sionary Society.
End. That it will be a long time be-
fore we become accustomed to her va
ca 1t place among us, and it is with
many heart tkrobs that we dwell lin
geringly and lovingly over her name
still inscribed upon our membership
roll. Yet we bow in submission to the
will of our Father in Heaven, ''who do
eth all things, and rejoice in the
knowledge that this %homegoing of our
dear friend was only a rending of the
veil, only a step over the line. only a
transferring of her name to ''that roll
up yonder'', and that now she sees face
to face; now she knows. even as she
was known. Glory be to our Father in
Heaven for such knowledge. Yes. she
has only passed over to that land where
] the flowers ever scatter their petals
in the dust of the tomb, where there is
no scared or yellow leaf upon the tree
of life, for it IS the land of endless
day. Amen! and Amen!
3rd. That we extend u deepest
and truest sympathy to the b~ereavec
family whom dear Mrs. Blair has left as
a legacy to our church, and pray that
Gods richest benedictions may abide
with them continually. That we trust
that this, gu. loss, will only strengthen
the cords binding US all together into
one union. Christ Jesus. That we may
become better women, more tender,
more loving and forgiving, and more
and more in earnest about the spread
Of our Masters kingdom.
