that the army and legislative appropriation

democrats have proposed them make a dead
lcck inevitable, unless, one side or the other
backs down. There is very decided feeling on
the republican side not even to allow either OF
the bills go through the House In their present
shape, II 1t can be prevented; and to resort to
hlibusteIfng to defeat, or at least delay them
OF course, If this expedent is not resorted to,
the democrats, having majority In each house,
can pass tie bills In their present shape. and
then the responsibility OF their defeat Will rest
with the interposit1on Of the executive
veto. There Is one thing apparent, and
that is that both the democrats and re-
publicaDs present rather a united front,
The republicans had hoped that the democrats
could not hold their men together, but are now
willing to admit that the ;tion OF their recent
caucus Is Sufficient to wal ant the opinion that
the democratic line is unbroken. There Is good
deal OF wild talk and idle speculation as oWhat
