fight for tbe democratic side in tbe contested
election cases, having been formerly chairman
of tbe committee on elections. He also, dur
log a large part of the setsion, led tbe fiht
against Reed's rulings, snd made probably
tbe best speech that was made combating
them. Criip is a strong ois'-or, and his
speeches upon tbe tariff question base always
attracted st.ention. As a speaker he is sharp
snappy and aggressive, hss made tbe rules of
the house his particular study, and it' is pret'y
generally conceded thst since ibe death of Mr
Randall and the elevation of Mr Carlisle into
the senate, no democrst in i!e hcus is ss

Both of Mr Crisp's psren's were Eejlith

speaker was be-rn st Sheffield. His parents
returned to this countiy and settled in Georgia.
In 1861, when be wss 16 vesr, of age, Crisp
enlisteu in the confederate srmy and became
captain. Early In the war he was made
prisoner, and wss kept for a year at Fort Dela
ware. After his rel-.tr he joined bis parents
at Zllaville, and was emitted to tlie har in
1866. He soon made a reputation as one o'
the beit attorneys in tli . state. In 187a be

The Tangent debating society lias been
wrestling with the question ol whether
the tariff oh wool enhances the price of

experience shows that the tariff does aftVct

upon the subject may show Zero.. -
Well, then, it the tariff duty placed up
on Impoited wool enhances the price of

that there are to be no special privileges to

POLITICAL TRICKS.
The political trick are not always ot a
character to cover their author with
glory, or to cause their name to go down
to prosperity with honor or renown. On
that Is ascribed to Governor Hilt, of New
Yoik Is about the thinest, and smacks the
loudest of autocratic dishonesty, of any
yet put on aecord. To break tne repub
lican majority In the senate he cause the
throwing out of a lot of ballot cast for a
republican candidate for the senator In one
ot the Interior counties pn the c round that
they were "marked ballots," and therefore
Illegal. The marks consisted in an Im
pression made by an em quad In printing
some of the ballots. This piece jot type
metal, as often happen In printing, had

it. Now, this, of course was not an In

Verily It Is true that "the political trick
are not always of it character to cover their
author with glory, or to causo thsli name
to go down to prosperity with honor or
renown," and a proof of this truth we
have only to adduce the statement ot the
lltrald that "Governor Hill caused the
throwing out of a lot of ballot cast fur
republican candidate for the senate In one
ot the Interior counties, on the ground that
they were "marked ballot" and therefore
Illegal." Now, the truth Is, that Gover
nor 1 1 111 had no more to do with the can
vasshig board ot Onandago county than
the governor ot California. He was not a
member ot the board, w net present
when the canvass was made, wss not the
adviser of the board and had no more to
do with Its deliberation than "the man In

talked of generally for vice-president; In
fact, that no other name Is mentioned, es

are all found In the state ot Indiana. The
