"Quite likely" he answered. "Think
livery probable such will be the case.
JOY 90 with them, say. The sooner the
Democratic party is rid of such men the
better it will be for it. am not afraid
to see that sort of an issue made, and
brought out in sharp lines, as this will.
II this is done they may combination
of anti-protection Republicans formed to
support Mr.. MorriSon's bill. At any rate
| am quite content that we should be rid
of anybody who would bolt the party and
defeat so important an issue as this"
From what can be gathered among
Randall's friends, it is pretty evident that
there is some truth in the story that he
will lead his wing of the House Demo-
Gratis against the bill, making fifty votes
with him against the bill 1t is said that
he will take four from Alabama, two from
California, two from Louisiana, nine from
Ohio and twelve each from Pennsylvania

Gone year ago tonight" said Mr.
Clardy to Post DiSpuich correspondent
to-day, 81 left Washington for home
The work of Congress was completed,
every appropriation bill passed and much
other important legislation accomplished
Now, the same period having elapsed, we
have the unonviable record of having ac-
compliShed nothing Not a single appro-
priation bill has passed both houses. If
things go on this way we shall be here
until October
"Do you think Randall is holding back
the appropriation bills for the purpose
OF delaying legislation and defeating the
tariff bill wnen it comes up?"
al don't know about that. He is, how
ever, think, making a mistake in not
pressing the bills vigorously. He might
have had them nearly all through the
House by this time if he had decided to
do so, and made a fine record for the
party"
Mr.. Clardy's remarks voice the senti-
ments of many prominent Democrats.
On this subject the Washington Post this
morning says: "Now that December,
January and February have mingled with
Democratic reform Congress assembled,
ii is time for the members to inquire
whether or not they have met the reason
able expectation of the people As they
now enter on the fourth month of the
session it is fitting time to glance
back at least ninety days and see what re-
port these DAYS have borne to the coun.
toy We do not believe retrospect can
be satisfactory to any Democratic Con.
gresham. We know it is not at all
satisfactory to the country"
THE MORRISON BILL SUBSTITUTE.
The substitute for the Morrison tariff
bill, placing coal salt and lumber on the
free list, was considered by the Ways and
Means Committee to-day. At the request
of Mr.. Kelley it was determined TO hear,
tomorrow a delegation representing the
bituminous coal interests. It was also
agreed to continue informal hearings until
fnal action was taken on the measure by
the committee. It is generally understood
that vote will be taken in the committee
Thursday.
