The Wilmington daily Republican. (Wilmington, Del.) 1890-1902, 1892-11-30


The Washington correspnodent of
the Baltimore Sun writes rs follows;
Senator George. OF Mississippi, has
arrived In tho city and ls stopping at
the National Hotel, where he will re.
main until after the assembling OF
Congress. In discussing the proba
lbility of an extra session OF Congress
the Senator said Mr.. CleN Gland Is the
solo judge OF the advlsabliity and
need OF such u session. Il eau hardly
believe that the condition of the treas

Congress necessary" continued Mr..
George III the report OF the Secre.

Congress to make the necessary pro-
visions for meeting it.
ut will be easy enough to act over
lsuch difficulty. Congress can au-
thorize the treasury to borrow money,
or the surplus can be utilized. or bet
ter still, an additional issue OF green
bncks amounting to fifty or one hum
dred millions could be accomplished
with perfect security. This would in
crease the currency and would not In
any way depreclaCe its value. The

fcertainly be sufficient security for fifty
or one hundred millions more.

ADyo iATEs OF AN EXTRA SESSION.
; Representatives Livingston, oil
Georgia, and rMsney, OF Missouri, are
two of the late arrivals In Washing
ton, and both are among the advo-
Gates OF an extra session. Nr. Living
Iston Is especially outspoken in favor
lof the proposition. lie says the cam
palgn was fought AMI the dem ocratie
victory was gained on the ground that
the people wore baing overtaXed and
robbed under the Mckinley bill. and
down In his country ut least the
lpeopip were anxious TO know when
the robbery was going to stop, and
they thought they had u right to de.
mand that it be stopped at the earliest
possible moment.
He said the people had been educated
lup to demanding reduction OF tho
Itarif, and the Democratic party had
lpro msed them on every stump
Throughout the country that they
would relieve them of the unnecessary
burdens OF taxation, and now the peo-
Iple demanded that those promises
should be fulfilled and II they wers

Important that tue next Congress Will

lnecticut. in declaring that the result
Iof the recent election will not in any
lway affect tho course OF tho Senate ut
the approaching session. lie says thu
Republicans do not look upon the rs
Isult rs n death blow to protection. ant
they will stand ready to defend tie
Mckinley bill from Democratic as
saults.
lie says tho Dem ocratic "Iies" aboui
1.-The force bill had more TO do with the
defeat OF the Republicans than tho
ltlrilf issue, and lIb docs not Think tho
Democrats will dare to attempt to re
wise the tariff on the lines laid down
by them in the campaign. He expects
them to pass u few tariff bills, such

Hast session, but to leave the grcai
bulk OF the tariff rs fixed by tho Nc
lkinley act untouched.
