The Daily Review Towanda, Pa., Thursday, Nov. 10, 1881. EDITORS B. W. ALVOttD. NOBLE N. ALVOItD "Daily Review" only 35 tenia per mo nth. Try it, ______ The Coming Session, A well-informed correspondent of the Press thus sums up the situation in the House of Representatives at the ap proaching session: "The choosing of a speaker by the Re publicans of the Forty-seventh Congress preseuts a very serious problem. It will not be wise to overlook the fact that the majority of the House is a dangerously small one and more than that, that it is not nearly so strong in able and experi enced leaders as the minority is. What talent there is on the Republican side awaits development. The men who must now come to the front have thus far sat in the shadow of men of long service, but who have all been promoted. One, the leader of all his party in the House, has been made President and died. Frye and Havvley and Conger have gone into the Senate. There never was such a deple tion of the House of real ability. It may be that the peers of these men remain, and now that responsibility is thrown upon them that they will show themselves worthy to wear the mantles that have fallen from the stalwart shoulders of those who have left the House to go to the Senate. The Democratic side is es pecially strong for a minority. As a mat ter of fact the Democrats always show best in obstruction and opposition. It is the one talent they seem to have studi ously increased. On the question oi ap propriations they will have Randall and Hoi 111 an; on the tariff questions, Randall, Carlisle, Tucker and Morrison; on law questions, Carlisle, Tucker and Proctor Knott. To meet this strong array the Republicans have two or three men who have given evidence of the possession of strong debating powers. Conover of Il linois can hold his own with almost any one on a question affecting appropriations and lvasson is a strong man 011 any ques tion. Robeson is a good debater 011 a law question; but with these exceptions, 110 one on that side has shown himself as anything more than a second-rate debat er. As I have said, this may be because of the presence of overshadowing influ ences that are now removed, but that is something yet to be established, and in the'meantime it will be well to look at the facts and not beyond them. Great care should be taken in the selection of a Speaker. The man who is put in the chair must be a good parliamentarian, with a cool head, a firm purpose, and a determination to be perfectly fair. But he need not necessarily be the best par liamentarian or the strongest man 011 the Republican side. Indeed in the present juncture, considering the inexperience of the majority that finds itself in control of affairs, it is more important that there should be a strong leader 011 the floor than an exceptionally good Speaker in the chair. Of course I refer to Mr. Ivas son, who will be, by all odds, the strong est man among the Republicans. The time for him to be Speaker has not come, for he is needed above all things as a leader 011 the floor." The story is afloat that ex-Goveuer Hendricks intends lecturing. The New York fund for the relief of the Michigan sufferers amounts to #124,300. Several milkmen of Jersey City were fined fifty dollars each the other day for selling skimmed milk. ■ C. B. Lewis, the "M. Quad', and Broth er Gardner of the Detroit Free Press , is in Virginia wilting war pictures and au f^Audotes. '£ A committee of Washington physicians is roported to have certified that Wash ington is a very healthy place Probably the practice of these physicians is limited. Several cases of typhoid fever in New York have been traced to a tomato-can ning factory. The workmen are describ ed as sleeping "fifty in oue room over a stable on unchanged straw on the lloor," and as eating the worst kind of food. The factory is on Stateu Island, in a marsh, ahd all the foul refuse collects in a black, stagnant pool near the stable. Such a story is not pleasant to read and and it is a wonder no worse results thfin cases of typhoid fever have followed such nasty conditions. The report of State Treasurer Butler for October, which has just been issued, shows that there is in the general fund $1,234,937.39. The largest deposit is in the Allegheny National Bank, amounting to $397,877.GG. In the Farmers and Me chanics' National Bank of Philadelphia there is deposited the sum of $191,531,47 and in the People's Bank, SBO,OOO. There is applicable to current expenses $281,- 626.31. This is the second statement of this character since Mr. Butler became State Treasurer. LOOK HERE ! A change of weather means a change of CLOTHES!
