High Springs NewB of Kkrida A C'eveland, O , dispatch cays: There will probably be a contest over the election in the Twelfth Otiio Con gressional DUtiiet, no matter what may he the result of the official count, which will be completed tomorrow. The first three witnotsea to be sum moned, he eaye, will be President Mc Kmley, Senator flnnna and Congreis man Charles Dick, Mr, L?nlz declares he can prove that 850,000 was spent iu this district to de feat hun, and he says he will question President McKmley, Senator Ilanna and Chairman Dick as to their knowledge ol corrupt methods used. In the Unitod States Senate that will meet on March 4, 1901, with Mr. Kouec velt as its presiding; officer, tho Republi cans will have a major. ly ol 22 over Ihe Democrats and all others, Io the next national House of Ropri sentativcB there will be 200 Republican members, a clear majority of 43 over all. This means that for two years at leaat, beginning with the assembly of tho ilrtc regular session of the Fifty-seventh Con gress in December, 1001, Ihe Republican party will have full control of the cxecu tlve and legislative branches of the fa- n eral (ioverninent, and with ample work ing majorities in both houses of UoiiL-ress. Full national control involves full na ional responsibility. Kx. Mr. Bryan gives the following reasona for his deieat : "I wbb doloatcd by prosperity." "Republicans compared present con ditions with the panio times of '03 to '98 and this argument had weight with tboae who did not stop to consider." "The tight must go on. I am sure that republican policies will be repudiat ed by the people when the tendency of tbeaejpolicies ia fully understood." "The result was a surprise to me and the magnitude of the republican vlc'ory waa a surprise to our opponents a well as to those who votod our ticket." "I shall continue to take an active in terest in politics as long as I live. I be lieve It to be the dutyfjof citizens to do so. We are defeated but not discour aged." Krom thePhiladelpbia Ledger. It will occur to . many discriminating readert cf the'Tresident's Thanksgiving proclamation that, admirable aa it Is. it would have been improved had its dis tinguished author blue-penciled the fol. lowing stated reason for unreserved na tional rejoicing and thanksgiving : "Our power and Influence is the caure of freedom and enlightenment have ex tended over distant seal and lands." The President's reloronce here is un mistakably and 'unquestionably to the extension of the Government's power and Influence over tbe Philippines and Porto Rico. Thus far tbe Govern ment prilcy may be quite tight, though it il only proper to say that a very large proportion of the people of the countiy not only believe It to be otherwise, but earnestly deplore and condemn it. Those who believe it right will do well to give praise and thanks for it, but that mighty host ol patriotld thoughtful, sincere men and women ol America who bolleve it to be wrong should not bs expected to sing paeans to tbe extension of our powsrsnd enlightenment, which is being accom plished or attempted by the slaugbtor ol the Philippine peoples and the sacrifice thousands of our own young nn.i, ou r ous and brothers.

President McfCinlt-y announces thai, he wains all of hie ci.bini:t to remain, fiiis include Attorney Generfl Griggs, the New jereiy peti biinor who has bien ditgra3e to the office, a mere tool o! t it trubts. Griggs is KA'.isf.tcoiy to thoce after grafts but he is not satisfactory to the best elements of our country. The trusts sanctioned by the pre.ent administration siuce election have added another one fourth cent per pound to white paper, and now even the republi can papers 6hould equirm, because we are all in the same boat. When a big trust lias an extra expense like a big campaign fund it immediately makea il up by an increase in the price of the ar ticle sold, but the newspaper cannot do anything of the kind. It has no monop oly and has to stand the increased ex pense itself, and grin and bear it. "A Man of Sixty, ' in the Spectator. No sane man would like to live his Hie over again. It is astonishing how the ordinary affaire of life seem to adapt themselves to your added year?. One's pleasures are quieter, but quite as enjoy able. To live in the lives of your child ren, to watch their progress, the develop ment of their nnudd, iB one great source of pleasure. Then one has uiiipic. n ail ing, gardeuing, occ. May I alBO add that 1 took the advice ol an old menu Borne years ago, who eaid the two things most likely to give pleature in declining life were to learn whist and to play the vio loncello? One Ea-.lern democrat figures it out like this: I ha7e a theory ol ray own to account for Mr. Bryan's defeat. If, like McKin ley, he had never made a speech through out the campaign, except the one at In dianapolis accepting the nomination, 1 feel sure he would have been elected. Grant never made a speech in either of his campaigns. Neither did Lincoln in bia aicond campaign and that was the only offe.iu which he got a majority ol the popular vote. Nur did Franklio Pierce in 1852, nor Grover Cleveland in either of his two campaigns. Blaine, like Bryan, talked all over the country So did Clay in an earlier period. And they weie both beaten. I believe the Americau people have a prejudice againBt great orators for Preni denis. At any rate they have never elee'ed one of them. . i . The Chicago Meat Trust showed great' regard for Senator and Chairman Ham a in postponing its announcement cf a ise in ail meat prices, which will net tbe trust 30,000,000 a year additional pro lit, until alter hejhad eaten hia celebra tion dinner. Toe increase was probably all provided for before the election, but to have made it publicly known at that time might have diminished Mr. Banna's chances of a celebration banquet, and even have thrown a certain discredit on his famous remark, "There is not a single trust In tbe United States." To appreciate the refinement and deli cacy of sentiment of tbe meat barons of Chicago we have only to contrast tbeir action with the coarse and grasping dis position shown by the coal barons in put ting up tlie price of ccaljwilhout regard to the political fortunesof their frienda and benefactors. OThis may not be an adequate coneolation to the) American people, who will hereafter pay a cent or more extra per pound on their meat or else go without It, but nnder the circum stances it seems to be about all tbe con tolat'on Ihe; can get. Mr. Bryan's luture is exciting a good deal of Interest. Here ia tbe latent. William Jennings Bryan may become a Presbyterian minister, according to Col. Richard M. Wynne of Fort Worth, Tex. Two years ago Col. Wynne was a candi date for the democratic nomination lor Governor of Texas. He is ea'd to have been tlated for Ihe poBt of Ambassador to Mexico If Mr, Bryan had been elected. It is a well known fact that Mr. Bryan Is deeply religious, and that during two bitter campaigns not a word bra been said against his personal character. Col. Wynne has frequently eutertained Col. Bryan at his home in Fort Worth, and at his solicitation Col. Bryan lec tured lor the benefit of tbe Presbyterian Church, (of which the former ie a mem b(f. : i i i 1 1 1 ; i . ' i i days before election asxed Col. Wynne as to Bryan's intentions is case he should meet defeat in the coming ettuggle. "1 would not be surprised if he should go into the ministry," said Col. Wyune; 'indeed, leather believe be will." In bis owu 'statement, given out at LiucolnThurfday night, Mr. Bryan said tie would.roniiuue to lake an active pait in politics as long as he lives.

' SATUKUAV MGHT THOUGHTS j 1 1 one is lo i"diM by the i are head of I ( onl. , uj judga by t':" " ouk " toeing panels llicr" is hardly a single ing to take the first place in tue mind of the people. The election is over, and tlie nublic is not talking very much about it, Ihouah there is a thought in 'he manner in theme lor which the trus s are taking advuulage ul it in in creasing prices. '1 be Chinese war h in eutu quo, with the piwera doing their ItVi-l l-e-t to get the wbo'e ranch for their indemnity. The Boei war is dragging along with the Hoen considerably of i distance from being entirely annihilated They are doing as they said they would, fight to tlie Ut ditch. Our war, wtl' we have one yet, and are liable to for several uundrcd years, aaloDgas we have subjects it is safe to predict stormy weather. That is the kind of a baromet er a colony is. ill tbeee things that bad their day coDepiciously have dropped somewhat out of sight, though mention ed daily in some form with au eighteen pjint head. Tho illness of a com men man does no attract very much attention. A large number cf people are ill constantly as ir-dicated by the big business of physi cians, but when the Czar ohBuseia is il every pulse beat ia watched and tele graphed all over the world . Hie health at this time when a great Internationa complication is up is a matter ot moment to the entire world. It is a big thing to he as important aethis, but the Democrat man had rather bs a common Bcribbler than have;his head reBt as uneasily as that of the Czar. V Among the reports of the things tba Mr. Bryan may do is that ot preaching Why not. Ho has lived a pietly relig. ious life the past few yearB as the world gopB. consistent and clean, not giving away to the temptations of the day like Borne prominent members of the church in high life. He r-oseeBBts the personal magnetiem, the insight into character and the eloauence for a master in the pulpit. He might do worBe. But as a matter of lact be will do nothing of the kind. He will remain in public life in some form. His life is built on those inea. And it may be detended upon hat be will never shirk auy reaponaibil tv that is Ibrust upon him. In athletics this is distinctly tho foot bill season of the year. Tte game holds sway all over tbe United States with a rigid hand, drawing crowds that no oth er contest can command. There are a number of reasonB for this. It is not all because of the brutal character of tlie game, for when analyzed It is not as brut al as appearances indicate, but because of tbe rough and tumble character of Ihe contest nd the energetic character ol everything about it. Criticise it all yon please it lias attractions for young men that no other game posseeBes, and though bones are broken and beads crushed and there iB an occasional death it will conttn ue to be piajed bj ambitious school boys.
