THE WORK BEFORE CONGRESS-.

1t is presumed that when Congress re-
vacation, that body will be ready to go to
work vigorously upon the business of the
session. There never has been a time
when the tariff was more of a business
issue than now The question is neces-
sarily connected with national politics.
since parties are divided upon it, but in
the phases in which it will be presented at
Washington it reaches the finances, the
commerce. the industrial and agricultural
concerns of the nation, and Affects the in
terests of the people individually. There
fore no subject could be more absorbing.
and none that should have more careful,
dillgent and patriotic consideration.
The appropriations for the support of the
different branches of the government will
necessarily require a great deal of thought
full and earnest elaboration on the part OF
committees and members. 1t is assumed
that intelligent efforts will be directed
towards cutting off unnecessary expendl-
lures, and in general reducing the alarming
outgo OF public funds produced by Repub
licaD extravaganza and recklessness. This,
of course, owing to the foothold these ex.
cesses have secured, will be slow work,
and may not be satisfactorily accomplished
at the first session, though we look for nc
little improvement before the end of the
present fiscal year. The Senate, which is
not permitted to originate general appro-
priation bills, must accede 10 the reductions
of the House or obstruct the wheels nj
government entirely, which it canuota fore
to do. Nor, indeed, do we think any dis
position in such a direction will be found
in that body. For the Senate is not a.
arbitrary as it formerly was, and it is in
closer ''touch' with the people. The term.
of a good many Senators will expire before
-ong. and there have been IN recent time,

ELI PERKINS has been detected in some
thing resembling a curvature of truth. He
has been writing serious articles for the
New York Sun, in one of which he said
lately:
Now judge of my surprise when 1 saw five
acres of chicory away out in O'Neill, Neb., the
other day. A Belgian by the name of BozzLE.
A had it. He was drying it and browning il
for the Omaha and st. Louis market.
When 1 asked him how he came to raise chic
DRY, he said:
Why, my brother raises it in Belgium, and
when the MCKINLEY bill passed he rushed seed
over TO me and told me to put in five acres.
which l did. He is on his way here now to see
about it."

SOM notable examples of states changing
their representation in both houses of Con-
gress.
The HERALD assumes that the popular
verdict of the country on the subject of the
reconciliation of silver will not be suf-
fered to go disregarded on account of the
influence of Wall street against it. Whilst
it is true that this is not the most import
ant issue before the country or should take
the place of every other issue, it is in every
way desirable that it shall be placed as far
along as may be practicable in the direction
of ultimate triumph. If it be true that q
western President, repudiatlng the views
and faith of the people of his section to
carry favor with the northeastern money
lenders, has made up bis mind to place the
executive veto as a torpedo on the track,
this determination should not terrify Con-
gress into reversing its lever. And we ex-
pect a friendly rivalry between the bimet-
talists of the Senate and House, as to
which body will be first to pass a free sill
yer coinage bill.
A great deal is being said in the newspa-
pers with reference to the effect upon
Legislation that will be had by the election
of Mr.. CRISP as Speaker and by the stand-
ing committees appointed by him. The
HERALD believes that the public would
have been in no different state of %conjec-
ture than it is in now, had Mr.. MILLS been
the choice. Indeed, The HERALD has been
unable to see wherein the Democratic view
on any prominent question has been
changed in the least by events transpiring
since the meeting of Congress. The issues
are precisely the same as when the mem
bers from the several districts were elected
by their Democratic constituents. These
Democratic Congressman know what their
constituents want in the political line, and
they will, without doubt, not ~disappoint
them. The personal point as to whether
this gentleman, that one, or the other, holds
a place on the committees, does not disturb
the equanimity of the people at home, who
look to the ''Be it Enacted for the results
of legislative doings.
The party policy of the Democrats in
Congress will be governed by the voice of
the party, as ascertained in regular con-
sultation or caucus. If Mr.. SPRINGER'S
idea of separate tariff bills, instead of a
general measure, prevails. it will not be
because Mr.. S. is chairman Of the commit
tee on ways and means. Ii the other idea
prevails, MIR. SPRINGER, both as member
and as committeeman, will pursue that
course. And so in regard to the whole
business of Congress. In party matters
Democrats will act as a unit, after full dis
c~ussion, and they will give to the country,
by their acts, a platform upon which next
November a Democratic Presidential ticket
will be ~triumphantly elected.

THE REVOCATION REVOKED.

Judge ANDERSON has decided against the
action taxed by the city council recently in
declaring the license OF the FRANKLIN
Avenue theatre revoked. His honor says
that the council, having granted the
license for a specified term, and accepted
the fee, could not revoke the permit with
out taking proceedings against the pro-
prietor of the place to prove that he had
violated the pledges of the license, and
thus forfeited the rights which he &C
quired through the license. This, in effect,
is the judges finding, and it would seem
to be good law, for if the council can at
pleasure declare a revocation of a license
there would be no protection for trades
men. An adverse council might prevent
any person from carrying on business, and
do so without going to the trouble of max
ing IN explanation.
All the same THE HERALD commends the
good intention of the council in the matter
of the Franklin street establishment, and
only regrets that the object of the NUM-
cipal fathers could not be successfully car
ried out. The purpose of the council was
all right, and the effort was in the interest
of morality and decercy; the method only
was wrong. The effect should be bene-
fetal; if not there is a remedy, and one in
the application of which the courts will
not interfere. If the place is half as bad
as it las been represented 10 be the council
should refuse to grant a license to it, and
with the facts before the courts the latter
will not say that the council must give a
license for the continuance of the establish
ment. The issuance of the license in the
first place was in opposition to a vigorous
protest on the part of the decent side of
community, and the public is more earnest
then before in its demand hi the %institu-
ton be closed.

aome of our contemporaries to a fact
which, IN their articles praising recipro-

idea of home life is connected with the
