Considerable discussion has follow-
ed the decision of Speaker Reed upon
that long disputed question of wheth-
er a majority of the full membership
of the House was necessary to make a
quorum or whether a majority of the
living members was a quorum. In
the fifty-first Congress Mr. Reed ruled
that the former was necessary. In his
last ruling he reversed himself and de-
clared that a majority of the living
members of the House are a quorum.
He says his first ruling was hurriedly
made. He isn’t the first man who has
been on both sides of a question,
Although opposed to the free distri-
bution of seed, Secretary Morton very
promptly arranged to carry out the
mandate of Congress and Senators and
Representatives were notified several
days ago that their quotas of seeds
were ready and would be mailed by
the secedsmen from whom they are
purchased, under Congressional frank,
as fast as addresses were sent in. The
quota of each Benator and Representa-
tive will be 15,000 packets of vegetable
seeds in packages containing 15 assort-
ed varieties, and 1400 packets of flow-
er seeds in packages containing five
varieties. .

had consumption and that there was
no hope for her, but two bottles Dr.

cold, approaching consumption, tried
without result everything else then
bought one bottle of Dr. King's New
Discovery and in two weeks was cur-

During the winter of 1803, F. M.
Martin, of Long Reach, West Va., con-
tracted a severe cold which left him
with a cough. In speaking of how he
cured it he says: “I used several kinds
of cough syrup but found no relief un-
til I bought a bottle of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy, which relieved me al-
most instantly, and in a short time
brought about a complete cure.”
When troubled with a cough or cold
use this remedy and you will not find
it necessary to iry several kinds before
you get relief. It has been in the mar-
ket for over twenty years and constant~
ly grown in favor and popularity. For

CHAIRMAN Newt, Spangler, to avoid

man’s desire for party harmony is
commendable and it is to be hoped the
same spirit will prevail with every
good Democrat.
CENTRE county Republicans are re-
ported to be almost a unit for John
Wanamaker, of Philadelphia, for
United States Senator. It is claimed
that he stands for the whole party and
not for any particular faction, and that
his great business ability and knowl.
edge of public affairs would make him
extremely valuable for the state in the
National Congress,
Tue Keystone Gazette expresses its
gratification at the liberality of Demo
cratic county officials giving it a share
of patronage. This is more than was
ever accorded to the Democratic coun
ty papers under Republican rule when
ail possible proscription was practiced.
Note the difference.

give the Reedites a hot chase with
the odds in favor of the Ohio nag, and
Reed says if he does not get the next
Republican nomination for President
