The Extra Session.

1t is too soon to say whether there
will be an extra sessit n of Congress or
not. 1t is well understood that Mr..
Cleveland will only call an extra session
in the event that Congress is needed to
avert financial crisis in the running
expenses of the Government. If the
Republicans turn over the Treasury to
Mr.. Cleveland in bankrupt condition
then it is quite probable that there will
be an extra session. Mr.. Cleveland will
not call Congress simply to labor on
the tariff. While he is the leading
tariff reformer in the land, he believes
in going little slow-slow enough to
allow business to accommodate itself to
the new conditions.
We think Mr.. Cleveland is perfectly
right. Let the country have patience.
A year hence the Democratic Congress
should get to work on tariff bill in
earnest and lose no time in getting it
through. Richmond State.

What Ii Means.

The Philadelphia Times, discussing |
the recent election and the benificent
results that are likely to follow from
the decisive verdict of the people as
at the polls, says the election
of Grover Cleveland to the Presidency
after his defeat for reelection in 1883,
is simply the emphatic expression of
the pee pie of the nation in favor OF
honest administration and equal JUS
tice to all in bearing the burdens of the
government. President Harrison is
not less honest than President-eiect
Cleveland individually, but Cleveland
stands for resolutely honest methods,
for honest taxes, for honest govern
mental protection to all classes and
conditions of our people. None can
misunderstood what the Cleveland
victory means. 1t means the absolute
fulfillment of every pledge he has given
to the people.
Not only is the Force Bill issue dead
and buried without the hope of resur-
rection; but the existing Federal
Election laws which were prostituted
to illustrate some of the worst features
of the Force Bill policy at the election,
will be effaced from our statutes, and
the Capitalization of Federal power to
control elections will be ended for all
time With the overthrow of the
theory of force in national elections by
the election of Cleveland, will come a
positive halt in the bewildering de-
bauchery of the ballot by campaign
contributions exacted from the favored
classes benefited by class legislation.
With the defeat of force methods in
elections and the defeat of the most
giganti; efforts to pollute our whole
political system by appeals to cupidity,
comes the end of the class legislation
that has centralized power and wealth
and oppressed the many for the bene-
fit of the few. These are the jewels of
the Cleveland victory won before the
supreme tribunal of the Republic.
1t is peaceful revolution, says the
| Times, and it will make no disturbance
in the channels of finance, commerce,
industry and trade. 1t will recall the
government to severe honesty; to all
needful economy to the largest free
dom of the citizen and to the sound
Democratic policy of scrupulously

This shows that in the first year of
the present republican administration
the amount paid in pensions was eigh-
ty-nine million dollars. In the second
year it leaped to a hundred and six
millions, and in the third it rose to
more than hundred and eighteen and
half millions In the fourth or last
year of republican rule the aggregate
will be hundred and fifty millions,
and the next year it will reach two
hundred millions unless the outflow is
checked.
This is serious outlook for the ma
ton. Obviously there is but one of
two courses to pursue-either to cut
down the rapidly growing expenditures
or meet them either by oppressive tax
alton or by running into debt. That
the first course is the only safe one to
adopt must be obvious to all.

Fred Douglass Speaks.

The negro orator, Fred Douglass, is
reported as expressing the opinion that
the negroes will fare better under
Cleveland's administration than they
have done under the administration of
Harrison. We concur in that opinion
and we said SO before the election. In
the first place the whole country will
be more prosperous under the just ana
equal laws which Democratic Con-
gress will enact. In the second place
Democratic President will show him
self to be the President of the whole
country, and not merely of one section.
The favors of government, therefore
will not be confined to the North, but
will extend to the South as well. Most
of the negroes live in the South and
whatever benefits this section will, of
necessity benefit them. Already the
price of cotton has gone up consider
ably since Clevelands election, and the
negroes of South Carolina are wild
with joy at what they consider the
effect of the Democratic victory
There is another reason, and a very
potent reason why negroes should fare
better under Cleveland than under
Harrison. The incentive to race con-
fiicts will be sensibly removed. Race
friction will be reduced to a minimum
and the era of good feeling between
sections and between races will set in.
Douglass is right now. The change
of administration is happy event for
the negro, but why didn't Douglass say
so before the election, when the ex-
preston of that opinion might have
influenced the voters of his race and
helped to bring about what he now
justly regards as a happy consumma-
ton. His wisdom comes too late, but
it is gratifying to know that thousands
of negroes in the South were not so
tardy in reaching the right conclusion.
They recognized the truth in time to
cast their votes for the Democratic
ticket and help to bring about the era
of good feeling.-Lynch6urg Aduance

SENATOR VANCE ON THE SITUATIo!

SENATOR VANCE ON THE SITUATION.
Through an interview published in
the Raleigh Chronicle, Senator q. B..
Vance gives his views on the political
situation. Briefly the Senator's posi-
ton is this: He does not favor an extra
session of Congress unless such an
emergency exists as is contemplated by
the constitution; he favors the abso-
lutte wiping out of the federal election
law, whereby national interference
with State elections is permitted; he
wants the pension lists and the pension
Office purified, and he wants thor
eugh and radical revision of the tariff"
Lastly, Mr.. Vance says he is opposed
to the present civil service reform sys-
TEN out and out, especially to the way
in which it has been applied" On ali
points discussed Mr.. Vance speaks out
with his characteristic frankness. His
thousands of friends throughout the
country have learned with pleasure of
Mr.. Vance's restored physical condi-
ton.

Found a Hundred Million Surplus and
Leave a Hundred Million Deficit.

When the democrats went out of
office in March, 1889, there was sur
plus of hundred million dollars in the
Treasury. When they return to power
in March, 1898, they will have to meet
a deficit of hundred millions.
Tn other acOrds, the republicans found
q hundred million surplus and s0ill

A prolific cause of this depletion of
the national Treasury has been the
notorious pension extravaganza of re-
publican legislation. The headlong in

the amount of pensions during ten

Mr.. Cornelius Vanderbilt, of New

Another Republican boomerang
The official vote of Montana gives the
Democrats majority of one on joint
ballot, thereby ensuring the election
of a straight out Democratic United
States Senator. Now Montana, like
West Virginia, was made State for
the express and only purpose of en-
abling the Republicans to hold on to
the Senate for an indefinite period, and
here. at the very first regular election
held in her territory she completely
reverses the programme. Ways that
are dark and tricks that are vain may
work all right for while, but they
will eventually recoil on those who
practice them as sure as fate.-Rich-

We are told that the country has
prospered and grown in population
and wealth with unparalleled rapidity
under Republican rule and all that
prosperity and growth, they tell us,
has been brought about by the wise
policy of the Republican party, 1t is
true that the country has grown in
population and wealth, but that
growth is due to the energy of the peo-
pie and the Astounding vitality of this
new country, with its almost limitless
resources. Growth was inevitable, ac-
cording to all the laws of nature and of
commerce. 1t was not in the power of
bad legislation to repress American
development, but what bad legislation
can do it has done. 1t has given a
wrong direction to that development.
Instead of general prosperity in
which all the people might share it
has given US system under which
few favored individuals have taken to
themselves the lions share, while thou
sands of other citizens are handicapped
in the race by burdensome and unequal
taxation.
The people have found out all these
things. and therefore they decided to
intrust the law-making power and the
administration of government to the
Democratic party. = Lynchburg Ad-

Dodge select doll for Baby Ruth. A
doll was selected which cost 1923, which
was dressed in pale blue bengaline,
with a gimp waist, shoulder cape of
drab cloth and a Gainesboro' hat of
Leghorn braid, trimmed profnsely with
ostrich tips. 1t set on little bamboo
