AN EXTRA SESSION.
General Belief That One WIN he Called

General Belief That One WIN he Called
Ny President Harrison.
Washington correspondence Omaha
Bee: 1t is the almost unanimous belief
of the republicans In the house that
President Harrison will call ON extra
session of the fifty-first congress for
tariff legislation and the admission of
new states. A majority believe that the
extra session will convene in April. The
others think it will come together about
the first OF November. The latter date
is regarded es the mtss probable one by
Meior sMcK,ney, of Ohio, who appears
| to be in the lead for the speakership.
Representative Posey, of Indiana, who
hos Just come from his home to succeed
Governor Hovey, and is supposed to
know something OF General Harrison's
feelings on tie subject, said to-day that
he almost knew that there would be an
extra session called. He ia not the cnly
one recently from Indiana, however. who
is impressed with the idea that a called
| session is certain. The only argument
that has been made against it is that to
have congress- in session during the first
months OF his term wonld be source of
annoyance to the new president on ac
count of the cffice seekers Yet il is
CONCEDED on every hand that it will be
better to hGvs men in congress seeking
the appointments rather than their con-
stituents. But it is understood that
General Harrison himself feels
that the necessity of an immediate or.
gaDization of the house is too pressing
to be overbelanced by any consideration
OF mere Inconvenience. He is said to
feel that the most important thug for
the republicans now is to hold the two
houses OF congress, and 10 clear away all
the perplexing matters of legislation
that are pressing for consideration early
in his term, that they may not drag on
throughout his admisIration TO embarass
1t, nor remain to complIcete matters as
the next election approaches. Besides
this, largo majority of the republicans
In both houses of congress are convinced
that special session is necessary TO the
we'll being OF She party, and they are
urging upon the president that he call
| them together about April. Very little,
! 1t any, legislation can be accomplished
before the close of this session. and then
will come the next congress with heavy
| responsibilities and so small and so un-
| certain majority that during the time
| between The 4th OF March and the first
| week Ia December il might be wiped
out, 80 that the republicans could not
| organize the house at ali. But even If
| this should not occur, there would re-
main for the republican congress, with
| hardly working majority, great deel
of important legislation that must be
| disposed of in aome way, besides being
embarrassed by many contested election
| cases, oyer which there will be bard
fighting and probably some filibuetesing,
but TO start With, they are threatened
with hard fight over the adoption Of
now rnles. 1t is important, il the repub-
licsn house is to do anything during the
next two years. that the rules would be
amended SO as to extend the powers OF
the majority,

that millers do not dempen their wheat

turned TO Washington, where he did
some good work in behalf of the state
He Is hopeful that congress will take
favorable action on pending measures.
MIR. Springer told Mr.. Preston that he
had come to the conclusion that Dakota
desired division and he should not SER
iously CONTEND longer upon that point.
bus he thought that vote of majority
of all the people OF the territory however
should be had. The senate, ON the con-
trary. opposed the proposition for vote
and this constituted one point OF differ
ence. Mr.. Springer said he would insist
on relocation Of the temporary capital
and would not push the proposition for
the admission of New Mexico. Relative
to Mr.. Pfeston's impressions the Mitchell
Republican says further:
Preston sizss up the situation about
like this, that Springer will concede
the house. The senate will desire no
vote whatever on division, and that New
Mexico shall be excluded. There is O
strong feeling on the part Of some OF the
older members OF the senate to accept
nothing from Springer or the democrats
and that what is done for Dakota shall
be from partisan republican stand
point, but there is strong desire on the
part OF many of the western senators TO
compromise the matter and secure ad-
