WEDNESDAY, DEC. 4, 1589 ————————————————————— REED. OF MAINE, THE MAN- Thos. B. Reed, of Maine, captur- ad the republican caucus nomination | for speaker of the fifty first congress in a canter on the 2nd ballot. It was) 3 fight in which the effete east was pitted against the wild and woolly west, and the latter is now badly in the soup. The railroad Barons and protected monopolists dictated the nomination, and the result has been apparent for several days. Ten days ago Reed was fairly beaten, but he made a trip to New York and placed himself in the hands of Tom Platt and Wall street. He made satisfac- tory dickers with the Northern Pa tific railroad people and with other great land grant raiiroad companies, and returned to Washington fully assured of victory. McKinley stood fairly and squarely on the last re- publican platform, but it was a con- dition, not a theory that confronted the caucus. The condition was that the east was bound to control the west; that the anti-silver money fel- ‘Tews were bound to down any west arn man, for fear of his influence on the silver question in the interest of the great farming classes of this sec- tion. Not satisfied with securing the speaker they take the clerk from Pennsylvania in the person of Me- Pherson. A very small and dry Bone was cast to the west in Holmes ef Iowa, for sergeant-at-arms. Ad- ams, of Maryland, was nominated for door-keeper. The nomination of Reed means that the mortgage-ridden farmers of she west have to look elsewhere than to the republican party for assist- ance; if means that an effort will be made by this congress to confirm the Northern Pacific and other rail- soad land grants; it means that all legislation affecting trusts will have the bitter opposition of the speaker; in means that the speaker will op- pose any legislation in favor of silver, that money which the great west spoke so emphatically in favor of at a sonvention in St. Louis enly last week. The action of the republicans ai electing Reed to speakership will have the effect of uniting the demo- trats more closely in congress, and encouraging them all over the coun- ty. WHEEL AND ALLIANCE VONSOLI- DATE. Delegates of the Bates county Wheel and Bates county Alliance met in this city Saturday. The head- quarters of the Wheel was at the City Hall ‘and that of the Alliance atthe Grange hall. Both meetings “were well attended by representa- ‘tive farmers. After the transaction -of the routine business the two or- - @ersmerged intoone under the name ef the Farmers’ Labor Union and the following officers were, (as near > ag we can get their names,) elected: Pierce Hackett, president; Wm. Maltbie, vice-president; M. V. Car soll, secretary; Rev. Summy, lecturer; . Albertus Fry, treasurer; and A. H. - Bell, business manager. By the ~-gonsolidation of the two orders a strong membership will exist. It is generally admitted that the farmers are the back-bone of this country and they are doing themselves justice im organizing for self advancement and self interest and none can blame them for doing what they concieve © be for the promotion of their wel- fare. The principles of the organiza- Sion are in favor of law and order and good government, justice in taxation. equal rights and a fair come pensation for their products and la- dor. What more could be asked or received? Then let the farmers or- ganize for mutual benefit if they speed in their good work.

As the hands of the clock pointed | to the hour of 12. Clerk Clark called | the house to order und proceeded to | read the ro!i of members elect. The reli call showed the presence | of 527 members, the three absentees | being O’Neal of Indiana, Randall of Pennsylvania and Whitthorue of | Tennessee. More than a quorum having been | disclosed nominations for speaker were in order, and Mr. Reed was} placed in nomination by Mr. Hen derson of Lilinois. The mention of Mr. Reed's name was the signa! for applause the republican side, which was returned with interest by the demecrats when Mr. MeCreary of Kentucky nominated Mr. Carlisle for the honorable position. on REED ELECTED SHEAKER. The vote resulted: For Reed, 166; for Carlisle, 154; for Cummings. of New York, 1. Cowles of North Car- olina voted for Cummings. Mr. Reed having been declared elected speaker he was escorted to the chair by Messrs. McKinley and Carlisle amid applause, and the oath of offce administered by Mr. Kelley of Pennsylvania. During the roll call Mr. O'Neil of Pennsylvania stated that his col- league, Mr. Randall, was paired with Mr. Wilbur of New York. SWEARING IN THE MEMBERS-ELECT. The next step in the organization of the house was the swearing in of the members-elect, and ss they ranged themselves in squares of twenty at a time in the space in front of the clerk’s desk, the oath was ad- ministered by the speaker. “We Point With Pride” To the “Good name at home,” won by Hood's Sarsaparilla.
