BINDER TWISE AGAIN.

1t is about settled, we think, that
the binder twine trust is in the soup.
In undertaking it's big gouge of the
farmers by doubling the price Of its
product, ii made no allowance for the
intelligence and inventive genius of
the farmers when called into lcgisla-

close figuring more necessary than In
farming, and that no class, therefore,
is more fertile in eXpedientS and in

the farmers.

THE NEW HOUSE RULES.

"They work beautifully" says an
Inter Oceon correspondent Of the new
rules adopted by the House at Wash
ington-thOse rules 10y which non-vot-
ing members are counted to make up
quorum, and the speaker can refuse
to entertain any motion that he re-
CARDS as dilatory.
1t is manifest, however, that in Civ
ing Speaker Reed the credit OF the or
ganization Of these rules in his own
brain and developing the courage out
of his own inner consciousness to APP
ply them, he is getting more than is
his due. The whole business had been
carefully concocted long in advance
by the best heads of the Republican
party. and was the OutgrOwth OF in
yinciblc necessity. For years the Re
publican party has had in view certain
grand aims Of legislation, but with a
Democratic majority in the House
these were always impracticablc. At
last they succeeded in getting COM
mand of the House, but by so slender
majority that under the old rules
the majority was really worthless for
the work in hand. The new rules
were therefore concOctcd to render
this majority as effective as if it was
ten times AS large.
What the Republicans really expect
this Congress to do is to pass the Blair
education bill, a general subsidy bill,
dependent and new arrears pension
bill and possibly a service pension bill,
the direct tax rcfundng bill, besides
several heavy canal bills and large APP
preparations for public buildings; and
as these will more than exhaust the
present surplus and call for increased
revenues, there is, finally, to be such a
revision of the tariff bill as will in
crease taxation enough to bring up
the revenue to the new demands these
measures will involve upon the treas
ury.
The Republicans know very well
that their chance for another ma ority
in the House is next to out OF the
question for years to come, yet they
have IA sure majority in the Senate for
at least ten years to come. Hence, If
they can get these measures through
the present Congress, their mortgage
upon the treasury for the next ten,
and it may be twenty, years is "A fixed
certainty.
The case with the Republican party
was, therefore, rlgidly one Of ground
hog or staryc.' They must make hay
while the sun shines, and with their
new rules, for which Reed alone gets
altogether too much credit, they will
be able during this single Congress to
bind on the country their policies fora
dozen of years, and that is what they
will do.
