This, It Is raid. Is nn established rule of congress. This plum will undoubtedly fall to Judge Smith of this city, .is he will be nominated for both tho unex pired term of Congressman McPherson and the regular term of two years, commencing next March.

The general Im pression among leading republicans of this city and county is that the clerkship will llnally fall to State Senator MnArthur.
