THE CLOSE OF CONGRESS.

The first and most prominent sensation
throughout the country upon the adjourn
m ent of Congress is one Of relief. VI
course there was very little danger at any
stage of the session of disastrous legisla-
ton being enacted The fact that Presi-
dent Harrison's veto power would be un-
flinchingly exercised had depressing
effect upon the partisanship of the House
and the vagaries of the Senate. There
fore the many Objectionable measures
which passed or were pushed in one
branch or the other were rather source
of annoyance than alarm.
The overwhelming Democratic majority
in the House, though, sufficiently indi-
Gated the position and sentiment of the
party to warn the country of the conse-
quences if it should obtain complete con-
troll. The promised demolition of the
protective system generally and the Nc
Kinley law in particular was not effected,
but it was not for lack of intention.
The fact that a Congress, largely
chosen ON an economical issue, has failed
to decrease the expenditures of its prede.
cessor has already been commented upon
by THE DISPATCH, as well as the other
special features of omission and commits
sion. As predicted IS months ago, the
record of the session can hardly fail to
operate as serious handicap upon tn e
Democracy in the current canvass.
