WASHINGTON: CROSBY S. NOY: THE EVENING STAR has a regular permanent circulation in W The speakership fight is one of the most in- teresting contests of the kind in many years. Last winter, too early for safe prediction, the friends of Mr. Milla thought he had decidedly the atvantage. After that the scales inclined for a wuile, evea to the eyes of an average Mills man, t» Mr. Crisp, the Georgian having scored something over the Texan before Congress ad- jonrned. In the beginning much was heard of a western candidate, but latterly Mr. Springer's boom bas seemed to depend on the farmers’ Movement going to him on its own failure, if it should fail in its combinations. At least that theory of bow he may become speaker of the Fifty-second Congress hat been propounded. The difficulty in Mr. Crisps way from the start of a divided ome delegation appears to increase. It is an- nounced that the four alliance democrats, no more than Mesers. Blount and Turn #upport his candidacy. The fact, however. is thet the candulacy of Crisp, in the jmdgment of his friends, has never depended on bis obtaining the solid support of the Georgia delegation, for Mr. Blount's cundidacy was carly declared and it was always Inown that some of the Georgians would not support the Georgia candidate. The state- ment that Mr. Livingston of the Atlanta dis- trict wasto Le the alliance candidate has now been before the public several days. The situation is decidedly peculiar. If the alliance members, both those elected as democrats and those nut #0 chosen, should be abie to cohere and dud aman from among the aspirants to suitthem who ha! nearly enough voter to elect him, they would hold the balance of power. It seems impossible for Mr. Crisp to accede to the Ucalx platform, without wiieb accessivn four members of the Georgia delega- tion say they cannot vote for him.

To this question the werther records of 1884 make a possible answer.

We may havea use for the summer resorts, after all. - ee The meeting here teday of the twenty-first annual convention of the Catholic Total Absti- nence Union recalls to the public mind the labors of that church in belialf of the cause of temperance. Not content to let organization proceed from withont, that communion h: formed its own societies, and they have been very effective in repressing the evils of intem- perance. One of the objects of the present ees- sion of the union is the endowment of the Father Mathew chair in the Catholic University, for which purpose it is proposed to raise the sum ‘of $50,000. This would be building a monu- ment both to Father Mathew and to the Chureb Temperance "aio oe Judge Kelly in bidding the republican party in Kansas good-bye doesn't involve himself in much sentiment or pathos.
