CANNON LOSES AND WINS.

The lower house of Congress went
on record last Saturday as a body
of fighters, when they locked horns
over the makeup Of the committee
on rules. The main attack, how
ever, was on Speaker Cannon. The
democratic members, aided by that
faction of the republican members
who style themselves the friends OF
good government, succeeded in oust-
ing the speaker from the committee
on rules. The grand old man took
his defeat calmly, and in the midst OF
the iubilation of his enemies scored a
greater victory for his party than any
one could have dreamed of, when he
suggested that the new majority de-
clare his seat vacant and elect a
speaker in harmony with their views.
But the insurgents ran up the flag OF
truce and came focking back to the
fold.
These spasmodic outbursts in leg
islative bodies, political and other
wise, are not without significance. 1t
shows plainly that the opinion of this
nation is undergoing a radical change.
The charge lodged against Speaker
Cannon has been in practice for
many years, and it was stated by
many that there was no personal
feeling in the case, but nevertheless
it is out Of the ordinary for members
of the majority party to join with the
minority to change an established
rule.
Congressman Cannon is tower of
strength to the republican party, and
while he has been eliminated from
the rules committee, it is also true
that his ability to say the proper
thing at the turn of the tide saved
the regulars from crushing defeat.

The Noble Twenty-seven.

Col Benz. R. Goulding has very
kindly sent us the list of colored men
who are qualified to vote in the next
election in Norfolk. The list en-
braces twenty-seven persons. Among
them are one lawyer, two physicians,
one railway postal clerk, four letter
carriers and one undertaken. No
preachers or teachers are among the
precious few. OF course it is too late
now for the number to be increased
before the next election, but we ear
nestly hope that when the books are
opened again more Of our men will
pay their poll tax and qualify them
selves to exercise the right of suf-
rage. The number ought to be in
creased to one thousand at least

1882, was arranged. 1t was discussed
at the time of the introduction Of the
Georgian calendar, whether Easter
should continue to be movable or
whether a fixed Sunday, after the
21st of March, should not be adopted.
1t was Difference to ancient custom
that led the ecclesiastical authorities
to adhere to the method of determine
ton by the moon. 1t must be re-
membered, however, that it is not the
actual moon in the heavens, nor even
the moon of the astronomers, we
are told, that regulates the time Of
Easter, but an altogether imaginary
moon, whose periods are so contrived
that the new (calendar) moon al
ways follows the real new moon
sometimes by two or even three days.
The effect of this is that the 18th Of
the calendar moon,-which had, from
the time of Moses, been considered
full for ecclesiastical purposes
falls generally on the 18th or 10th
of the real moon, and then after the
real moon, which is generally on the
14th or 18th day. With this explanation,
then, of what is meant by full moon"
we understand that it is the fourteenth
day of the calendar moon; and the
rule is that Easter is always the
first Sunday after the paschal moon,
which happens after the 21st of March.
We note that the full moon came on
the 25th of March this year and Eas-
ter will be celebrated next Sunday,
the 9th day of the same month.
We see from the facts stated above
that the celebration of Easter is a
sacred occasion, and each individual
should be careful to not desecrate the
day. The people in this day and
generation celebrate the day in many
ways. One method that is practiced
extensively, and one that has done a
great deal to divert the attention Of
the people from the manner of cele-
brating the occasion as was intended
by the Christians in olden times is
that of society celebrations and church
rallies for the purpose of raising
large sums of money. 1t is truly a
time for rejoicing, and every ambit-
ion for money garnering should be set
aside. Every one should strive to
make some one else happy, if only by
carrying to the sick beautiful flower
and an egg in commomoration of him
who rose from the dead to make all
men free

political point of view, and the next
campaign in this state promises to be
the bitterest witnessed in many years.
The indications at this time are that
the disgruntled democrats will again
ally themselves with the republicans,
and the two factions will attempt
to completely route the old pure, dyed
in-the-wool democrats.
Well, the Negro is in a position to
look on with complacency; for all the
parties have practically eliminated
him from taking any part in the
campaign plans. All they, the col
ored brethren, will have to do is to
pay poll taxes and be ready to vote.
1t will not be wise to refuse to take
any part whatever in the elections be-
cause of the discriminatory methods
practiced, but keep as closely in
touch with the situation as is possible.
The votes count after all, and no
man has the right to cast more than
one ballot, no matter who that indi-
vidual may be.
1t is needless to pay any attention
to the malicious charges of some
papers, but it will be we'll to bear in
mind that whom the gods would
destroy they first make mad" SO let us
keep on singing and whistling, and
voting for whosoever we please.
