Speaker whose right to a seat’ is very
“ questionable, and will be most seri‘ously contested. There are numerous
indications to strengthen the belief
that the Administration intends to
hold a tight rein, and needs just such
aman as Mr. Carliste in the chair to
effectually carry out the programme.
The possibility that the election of
the President may be’ thrown into the
House, renders the organization of
that body of fie utmost importance.
While the Republicans have a majority of the States in the House, the
Democrats have a majority of the
menibers. It only needs a change of
two seats to give the Democrats a
majority of the States, and Mr. Carlisle’s committee on elections will be
organized for that purpose. Indiana,
for instance, has seven ‘Republicans
.and six Democrats, and.the seat of

with California, where there is another contest, arid so with Michigan,
where there are strong intimations
that. a case will be made up. The
Administration is ready to resort to
desperate means to hold its power,
and the struggle will be a fierce one.
Several weeks ago I alluded to Mr.
Mills, of Texas, a radical free trader, .
as the probable chairman of the committee on Waysand Means. He says
the question is settled, and that he
has that committee, which signifies
red-hot war on the present tariff system. I want to predict further that it
will end in bluster, and that after all
there will be no very material
changes. The Democratic party is
good on “dress parade,” but sadly
deficient in materializing legislation.

YOU, SIR?
Isn’t there something very suggestive
in this salutation of the barber? There
stands Old Father :Time, for instance,
with his scythe. What of his harvest?
Do what we will we can't avoid the
inevitable. Life may be saved, prolonged,
made happy by physical comfort, be
blessed by spiritual guidance, be honored
by good works, but it has its limit ordained by fate. The Old Reaper may be
forgiving, he may be lenient and partial
to many; notwithstanding all, the sweep
of the scythe goes on—ranks are mowed
cown, -you are reached at last. He
calls ‘Next,’ and passes on to ranks
of othér victims. How near he jis we.,
never know. We may know that he’s
about, that’s all, by many signals. Even
a minor ache or F ge may be the forerunner of his swift approach, or chronic
agony of his slow but certain coming.
eglect of either only welcomes his
advance; precaution and care w
off attack. What then is the moral?

the barber. Mr. Willett F. Cook, publisher of the Courier, Canajoharie, N.
Y., under date of February 10, 1887, relates the following incident: ‘Thos.
Beekman, a prominent colored barber
of this village, suffered several months
with rheumatism; he was unable to stand
up part of the time and attended to his
customers with difficulty. Having been
myself greatly relieved by the great
remedy for pain, I advised him to try
it. Hewas rubbed three or four times
before dinner. When he left his shop he
was as spry as ever in his life. He
says he danced a jig. St. Jacobs Oil cured
him as it cured. me, and he is the happiest
man in the town.”
