Although 1S94 is what is known as an "off year" among politicians, it promises to equal in importance those in wliich presidents arc elected. The state legislatures chosen next November will elect upward of twenty United States senators, and an entire new house of representatives is to be voted for.

It bids fair to bo a strict party fig-fat on federal lines. Retiring The senators whose terms expire March 4, 1895, are: John T. Morgan, of Alabama; James H.
