WASIIINCITOV , Nov 10 , General John B
Clark , Jr , tlerk of the house of represent ! !
tlvos , believes that ICO drmocr.itie represen
tatlves have been elected , and that six dis
tricts are in doubt 1 his Is a calculiitioi
based on an assumption that Wilson ( dcm
Is elected from West Virginn Tlio dnubt
ful distiicts , In Gencinl Clark's estimate , arc
J the First California , TA'itth Kentucky. Second
end North Carolina. Pint , 'Ibird and Pourtl
of West Virginia ' 1'heso districts he sets
down as doubtful because they aio claimei
by both paitictt In majorities so small tha

Bacon felem ) , of Now Voik , who Is icportec
to have been defcatnd bv eighty imjonty
Cicncrnl Chirk expects that a e-ontesl will en
BUO. Of one thing ho Is confident , and that
Is tlmt the mnjoilti in thu next house wit
not bo live either wni.
Relative to the functions of the clerk in the
nrgnnl7iitlon of the now house , and thejiower
ho Is supposed to be nblo to "xetclso in seat
ing or unseating nicmbcis , Gcneial Clarl
Ha } s that his duties aio fixed by statute , am
aio purely minlsteii.il If a member elect
presents a propei eertlllcate of election his
name will bo plaecel on the loll , nnd not
otherwise. Theio cannot bo duplicate
c-citlllcates , because theio in o at present no
dual state governments , as theio have been
at times past m thu south. Gcnoial Clark
mid that from oltldal ice-oiels befoie him the
republicans had elected a majority of one in
thej next houseami this was because up to
tlio present time but ono cci tillcnte had been
presented to him , namely , that of K 'present-
atlvo Herman , ol Oicgon Certillcatcs arc
usually a long time coming in , us they monet
not issued till some tlino after thu oftlcial ic-
tutns nrc made | ubllcIn case the of Mis
MHirl , this docs not take piueo until Jantiaij
and In manv other states the date is equally
remote from election day.
The ivduetmn of claims of both putics to
verv mi iovv mijoiitles of from tlirco to live
or six suggests Intel csting possibilities when
it is romembcii-d that no loss than six per
sons who weio elected to the Fiftieth con-
giess died either bcfoio they had be-on &woii !
in or after the. ) bad taken then seats , anil
that there is a stiong ptobability that theio
will be- some ; deaths among : U > men of mature

These who liavo known Gcnoinl Hirrlsou

character Tlie cleanness of his private lifo
has never been disputed. Geneiat Hnrr'son's '
war record is more than icspectablo by
merit , not bv political Influence In civil life
ho has been bold nnd uncompromising The
Intellectual force of General Harrison has
been questioned , but his intimates regard
him as iiniuu of big brain With this goes ,
it is usse < ttcelan invincible confidence in him
self 'I Ins Is not the \ievv of the picsidcnt-
e'k'i t that was taken bv democrats In the
late campaign. 'Iho caricaturists then
treated him as n blind or stalking lioiso for
an eastern statesman. But the he.ul no
longer appears too small for the hat It Is
evident from utterances since election that
there is less desire than ever before to dia
goon the southern states It is not uhlikclv
that Senator Chandler will press the bill to
ieiMilnte elections in the south , which ho in-
tioetuced hist wintei. But them are conservative -
vativo Inllucncss at work. Many mil
lions of northern and western capital are al
ready Invested In the south. Many more
millions ran prolltablv be placed in southern
stales. Tnis will go fur to prevent violent
and cocicivo legislation. Thcro is likewise
a widespread feeling that nothing is to be
gained by nttempting to restoie negro rule
and carpet-bag contiol In the south. The
expci Intent bus been tried , and tbeto is little
temptation to icpeat. Tlio conclusion wo
have come to is tt.at the southern pcoplu
have little leason nt piescnt to fear extreme
measures on the nail of General Hairison or
of congress , and the southern people them
selves can strengthen bv their conduct the
hope of continued peace nud piogrcts.

nonplussed. The "Grand old man , " whom
the conservatives and unionists nffect to
despise , luis made a fresh move which tins
surprised tbo ministry. This is Gladstone's
announcement last nitlitthat If the govern
incut , us tliey tincatened , present n bill on
Moudav embodying a demand for a vote of
15,000,000 , additional for the extension of the
Ashbourno net , ho will inovo an amendment
embracing the arreais scheme. This clover
move has taken the inlnistci ml bench quite
unawares. U was expected there that a mo
tion would bo made by the opposition
in the shape of a dnect negative of
the government's motion. This would
have enabled the cabinet debaters to use the
argument that Gladstone was again opposing
a measure designed for the benefit of Irish
tenants , merclj because it was pioposed bi
lbo government. Gladstone's demand , thus
presented , for the simo treatment for Itclund
as has been eminently successful in Scot
land , is turning the enemy's Hank In a most
unexpected fashion. Urgent w hips will bo
issued for a division on this amendment ,
which , it is expected , will be taken on Tues
day night.
