OLD TIMES COME AGAIX.
Topxka, Jan. 7. The political pot be
gins to boil; there are now about sixty
memlwrs here, and a great muiiy old polit
ical wai horses. It brains to look a little
like the old times. The poudcrous form of
Legate is not seen in the lobb'; the sono
rous and elegant Ilallock is not heard; the
factious ami pious Gov. Green is absent,
but many of the old boys are here. Ben
Simpson is the same "Warwick of the ad
miKi'st ration that he has been, and the same
cautious, skillful and dexterious leader
that lie was in the , palmy, but perilous
days of Pomeroy. ilallowell the chival
rous, courteous and kindly prince Hal is
here booming UatSeld for all there is in it.
The chief manager of tho Ilatlield boom is
your own steady, cool-headed and deter
mined Col. Dick "Walker. He said to me
this evening: "We have made a Sabbath
day's journey in the good work; Ave have
made handsome inroads into the ranks of
friends, our enemy. It has been a good
work; we shall keep pounding away and
we count on victory a? certain: we are
fmhling for that purpose and none other.

stray or straggling spirit of the southwest

Burton, the eloquent oung orator of the

which 'places him in the front ranks as a

Finlcy, formerly of Fort Scott, aud a
noted southeastern politician, is here push
ing the claims of Gillette for speaker.
Walker of Wellington, is making a fine
canvass fer chiVf clerk. He goes at his
work quietly, methodically, but Avith the

will probably meet next Tue-Jay morning,
as Monday night will b- t..ken up Avith the
ball and reception. Tnere is a good deal
of feeling against a caucus; many of the
members coming in have declared against
it, though the general opinion is a caucus,
will be held. The members who have ar
lived are mostly from the Avest, northwest
and feonthvrest; there are few arrivals from
the eastern counties. Leavenworth, Law
rence and Fort Scott are Avithout repre

uusmess. ivHientiy the west is going to
run the state in the future.
rhere are no jKirticular developments
about the state printer question. W. H.

over the CommonAvealth to the Democracy
for their stale organ. It is counted strange
that the Hon. Jacob Stoller is not on the

ever, Avill not commence until the speaker

and then the fur iH fiy.

WRESTLeJG WITH A POSEK.
Senate committee ou printiug it is said
began this morning the ludy of certain
problems involvedlu the nomination of
Benedict to be public printer, and Bene
dict was himself before the committee for
examination. Xo conclusion Avas readied
and another meeting is to be held during
the Aveek. It is understood there are no
formulated charges agaiust the nominee,
but there are people Avho claim that ho i-
not a practical printer or bookbinder, and
in these respeeU does not meet the require
ments of the laws goA-erning the appoint
ment to this office. The committee f nds
itself called upon to not ouly in-A-&tirate
and determine a question
of fact, but to iuterpret the laws. It i
argued on one hand that to be a practical
printer and bookbinder one must hr.A-e
served apprenticeship at typtj setting aiMi
haA-e Avorked Avith his own hands at book
binding. On the other hand, it is urged
that the manager of uh immen-e establish
ment like the goA-erument printing ollice
may be all the more efficient for not having
passed his life in aa ratling with the mi nu
lla or mere mechanical features of the
work on hand The crmuntUe a ill give
Benedict ample opportunity to reply to
anything which may be said against him.
INTERSTATE COMMERCE.
fceuator McPherxm today suuinmeu an
amendment to the inter-state commerce bill
proposing the addition of ihe following
AA-ords to section 5: "Which prohibits
pooling; provided, hoAvever. that if after
jull inA'Cstiiratinn the commission or a
majority thereof are of the opinion that the
interests of both shippers aud carriers will
be best promoted by an equitable divi-ion
of the traffic or the proceeds thereof, be
tween the carriers, the provision of this
section may not be enforced prior to Janu
ary 1, lbst, and it shall be the duty of the
commission to report thfir action with the
reasons therefor to congreo-s in general '
The amendment aKo increases the number
of commissioners of interstate commerce
to be appointed from Ave to nine, and the
miniber of slum commissioners who may be
of one political party from three to six.
