Sate Bem A SPANIARD IN CONGRESS. 4 New Mexican Dele; Who Spoke No English. Forty-six years ago there sat in the House of Representatives of the Unit- ed States, and introduced measures for its consideration, a man who had 10 knowledge of the English language, Says a Washington writer. He neither understood it nor spoke it. He was, moreover, an educated Spaniard, and was said to be a Catholic priest. This man of foreign tongue only had suc- ceeded Richard H. Weightman, who served during the previous Congress. He held his seat by virtue of the vote of his constituents, the favorable re- Port of a committee of Congress upon & contest made against him, and the @pproval of that. report by vote of the House. He was the sole répresentative in the House of a portion of the United States but little less in area than twice that of New England. He went into his seat, as has been said, on a contest that ended favorably to him. He went out of it after an election on a contest that was decided against him. His po- sition in the House, and the manifest disadvantage of it to his constituents led to repeated attempts by his friends to provide him with an interpreter upon the floor of the House. The first effort contemplated that this should be done at public expense. Later it was sought to provide that some one to in- terpret for him might be permitted merely to come within the doors of the legislative chamber. The first effort failed through a decision of the speak- er that the resolution offered was not a privileged one. The other failed from the lack of a two-thirds vote in favor of suspending the rules to permit the introduction of a resolution. I have given above in a general way the rressional history of Senor Vose Manuel Gallegos, delegate from New Mexico in the Thirty-third Con- gress of the United States, as gathered from the Congressional Globe, the House journal and the House reporta of committees. FROM A KING’S DEATHBED. Gltar Cloth of St. Osyth’s = Reminder of the Times of George II, There is a pretty little village called St, Osyth in Essex, Eng., close to Clac- ton-on-Sea. The altar cloth and cush- ions of the pulpit in its parish church were made from the counterpane and the velvet hangings of the bed in which George II died. In the royal household there fs an office called “groom of the stole,” filled by a peer if the reigning sovereign is a king, and styled “mistress of the robes” and filled by a noblewoman if the sovereign is a queen. There is a salary of $2,500 a year at- tached to the office, and, as a per- quisite, the holder of it at the demise of the crown receives the furniture of the beichamber in which the king or queen dies. The groom of the stole when George II died was the earl of Rochford, who had the furniture of the room in which the monarch passed away removed to his residence at St Osyth, and presented the rich trap- pings of the royal deathbed to the par. ish church. Fat Treasarles. . Some say that the amount of money in the United States Treasury at the time of the Secretary’s latest report— $545,876,305—is not only the largest in the history of our treasury, but the largest on record for any nation, says the New York Press. Such is not the case. Some eighteen months after the Franco-Prussian war the Bank of France had in its vault no less than 8,000,000,000 francs ($600,000,000) in gold, the biggest amount of gold the world has ever seen, The most extraor- dinary thing in connection with thia was that France had paid to Germany about a year or so previous 5,000,000,- 000 francs ($1,000,000,000) ‘as a war in- Gemnity. The war increased the na- tional debt about 7,000,000,000 francs, The Commune destroyed property worth 800,000,000 francs in April and May, 1871. Just think of the recuper- ative powets of France to have more than half her war indemnity back in her pocketbook in a year and a half, and through trade, too! The First Newspapers. As it is to Germany that we owe the first example of printing, so to that country is due the credit of publish- ing the first regularly issued newspa- per. This was the Frankfurter Zel- tung, and it appeared first in 1615. This publication ig still in existence. It was.followed the year after by the Nieuwe Tidjinghen, a Dutch produc- tion, printed at Antwerp, says a Lon- don paper. The first English newspa- per was the Weekly News from Italy, Germany, etc., published in London iu 1622. The Gazette de France (Paris, 1631), and others followed. The Lon- don Gazette was the first regularly is- sued English newspaper that survives to the present day. It appeared in 1665, and the earliest numbers were pub- lished at Oxford, where the court at that time was temporarily established. Difference Between Artists. Down at Greenport, L. L., late last fall two New York painters whom it were cruelty to name under the cir- cumstances, who had lingered about their summer haunts to get some duck shooting, were taking an afternoon at gketching to secure some notes of ma- sine and nautical details among the shipping in the harbor. A village sign painter saw them and came up and watched them. Presently he spoke, “] suppose you fellows studied years to get to do that,” he said. hey allowed that he was right. He pondered a moment, critically, then: “)ipe come natchral to me,” quoth he. a) die —-—- = Forty-one years of age, six feet in height, two hundred in weight, ath letic and active in movement, keen and alert in thought. and action, a tireless campaigner and one of the most thorough and resourceful organ- izers who ever marshalled the forces of the people in a campaign—Leonard A. Rosing, the unanimous choice of Minnesota Democrats for governor, is an ideal standard bearer for an enthusiastic and fighting Democracy. Part and parcel of the Lind gubernatorial administration, associated with Governor Lind in the formation of state policies and in the direction of the state government, sharing with him those enlightened convictions and . patriotic sentiments which made that administration the idol of the com- mon people—Mr. Rosing is the fitting successor of the chief whose able aid- de-camp he was during a six years campaign. The three state campaigns organized and managed by Rosing with Lind fs the gubernatorial candidate have done more to arouse the public con- science and enlighten the popular mind on state issues and patriotic principles in this commonwealth, and done more, in particular, to break the power of the Republican machine and make possible the election of men who represent the true interests of the people, than all the previous campaigns in the state’s history. The three Lind-Rosing campaigns have made it impossible for a Republican governor in this state to get into the governor’s chair except by desperate resorts and then by the most nar- row margins. A Swede by birth and a German by ancestry, Leonard A. Rosing is an American from backbone to finger tip. He believes in the application of the LEONARD A. ROSING, —— SS a principles of the Declaration of Independence to every proposition. Equal rights to all and special privileges for none—is his battle cry and his polit- ical panacea, in state as in nation. He believes that American labor and American {ndustry have achieved their place in the world, in spite of, and not because of, government pab- ulum and apron strings. He believes that all the Americar workingman and American farmer require and ask is freedom and justice, and the abolition of the specia! privileges which have given the trusts and other powerful interests the up- per hand in the commercial and industrial struggle. Instead of prosecuting one combine and protecting another, instead of attacking one merger and winking at a second, instead of fighting one trust for campaign purposes and playing hand in glove with the political repre sentatives of the next one—he would invoke the fearless enforcement of the laws of the land and the principles of free government against all, without fear or favor. He stands for removal of special privileges from all, for the equal en- forcement of the laws in regard to all, for the principle that the state which creates the corporation can control its creature, for the regulation of railroad rates by the state, instead of a cowardly surrender of public power, for equa! taxation, for organized labor and its rights before the law, for municipal ownership and direct legislation, for the supremacy of the people and the subordination of private greed everywhere and always. Born in Malmo, Sweden, of German stock, the grandson of a Swedish colonel and the descendant of Teutonic yeomen, he has been a resident of Minnesota for thirty-two years, was educated in its schools and trained for twenty years is the hard work of the farm, and now, with a ripened business and political experience, the state leader of his party, he comes before the people with this appeal to their suffrage: “I believe I am fighting for right and for justice and the best inter- ests of our citizens. I yield to no man in my love for our institutions and our state. In Minnesota my life has been spent, and [ promise you that if elected, I will, under the guidance of God, be true to the interests of the state and its people.” W. E.
