The appointiii.ini of Hryiint was refc-rrud to the senate i i a coinmitti-u, aud while all and inattt'rs to its business aro strictly private, It Is that there are papers filed i tho committee which Bryiint is not a republican. These papers nro reporttd to go iu thcr nnd sny that he has not cast a rcpubl can vote for years. Hoar in said have remarked that the president might a well have appointed any good democrat i Texas as to have appointed Bryant, an when Senator Ilnwley waj asked when th appointee will be be re piled tha there was semi; question -as to whether would ever be confirmed. It is umlerstoo that the opposition toBryaut'sconiirmatio started whU thu republican machine 1 which ia disgruntled because he wa never active'ln political matters. But th is uncertain.

The opposition may hav commenced here.

WASHINGTON, May republicans sometimes laugh and sometimes cry these days over the situation. Tho weeping time ia when they receive letters from tie Grand Army of the Republic, and tho times when they laufib. are when they too the big men of their; party hopping around in frantic effort to keep themselves well in front year 1803. The Grand Army of the Republic is terribly dissatisfied with many republican members of congress. Now nearly every republican member felt called on whou the session first opened to introduce bills for the arrears of pensions, for service pensions, for per diem pensions, for pensions for the imprisoned and in fact for every other kind of pensions the soldiers ever thought of.

McKinleydid It. Grosvanor did it, and from tho top to tb.e lower layer nil did it. When they naroo tc count up-tho ccwt of all this they wore at first atnrtied, and then recovering them 1 solves commenced to look around a hole which would permit them escape. It is said that ilcKinley introduced a measure most generous to the soldiers, and a few ilaye later when a congressman soucht out bill uot a copy was to be found. Mc- Klnlcy was so "taken" with his bill that ho had scat out every copy in order to let tho "boys" know what ho was doing.

Gros- vo'nor. who is from Ohio, where tba "boys" are very hungry, also drew np an exceedingly generous measure. It was bad politics in these two gentlemen. When the timo came for action the Merrill bill, which Is a compromise aud pensions only donuudent persons and those CO years of ago, was passed, and tho soldiers awnKened to tho fact that they hid been deceived. So they are sending In all sorts of SARCASTIC One ot the tiinmbers few days ngo received a demand "that ho should soak his head till became soft enough to nbiorb an idea.

Mr.

Hale, In connection with it moved an amendment providing that no alcoholic liquors, beororwiufl shall bo sold or supplied to enlisted men in any such buildinc at any military post. Mr. Frye said that the recent decision of supremocourt had excited his state very greatly and had a tendency to destroy the prohibitory law, if it did not actually destroy it If tho United States opened tho door by that decision to tho violation of the iroblbitory law and then in addition to authorized liquors to be sold on its promises tho state of Maine might just as well give up the prohibition Saw and let it go. -Mr. Cockrell moved to amend the amendment by striking out beer and wine.

Mr. Hill said tho committeo on Invalid nnsions had carefully considered all tho acts in tho case and had concluded that J50 month was a proper pension to grant.
