The fight over the Washburn anti
option gambling bill is on in Wash
ington furiously. All the grain men
and cotton exchange men in the
country are fighting against it. A. j.
Sawyer, one of the men who issued
the $4,000 challenge to the GREAT
WEST, seems to lead the opposition.
The alliance men in Congress stand
for it in body.

N nE DATE


In the way back days of the Republic
when there were no railroads, when
travel was by steamboat, canal boat,
horse back or afoot; when a trip from
Pittsburg to Washington City consumed
two weeks, from Chicago six, and from
San Francisco two or five months, there
may have been some good reason for the
meeting Of congress the second Decem-
Der after its election.
But that condition has passed away,
and we live under a new d~ispensation.
The congressman representing the
most distant district from Washington
City can now reach the national capital
within ten days. Sessions of congress
ought to be held in recognition OF that
fact.
Onthe next fourth of March Mr.. Cleve-
land will be inaugurated president of the
United States. But under the fool rule OF
having no session of congress until
the first Monday in December following,
unless a special session is called, he will
have no aid, and the country lies in q
dead eddy, IS it were, until next winter.
The congressman who were elected
last month ought to begin active opera
tons as soon as Mr.. Cleveland takes hi:
seat. All the branches of government
ought to pull out together while the
issues npoh which they were chosen are
still fresh with the people and witt
them.
The old rule ought to be broken up.
