An Extra Session of Congress.

II there is one thing which the country
doesn't need it is an extra session of Con
ss-Baitimore Herald.
II there is one thing which the country
does need it is an extra session Of Congress,
unless the Senate at the ensuing session
pass the bills reforming the tariff already
sent over from the House and that may be
sent over before the 4th of March. The
people are grooming beneath an intolerable
burden imposed upon them by the Mckin-
ley tariff, and the sooner they are relieved
the better for the whole country. y judi
cious change in the tariff, so as to widen
and extend foreign market for our agri-
cultural products, would revive trade and
create business activity throughout the
country, bene6ting commerce and manu-
features as well as agriculture. Our chief
exports are the products Of the farms We
cannot consume them at home and must
seek a foreign market With foreign
market commerce is thus stimulated, and
when agriculture and commerce are -four
ishing they stimulate manufactures also,
and business generally is revived. In adj
dition to all this the Democratic party il
pledged to relieve the country Of the in
tolerable burdens imposed by Republican
legislation and administration, and it is
in duty bound to fulfil that pledge without
delay. The Democrats will have the exc
cutive and legislative branches Of the gov
eminent, and there is no excuse for de-
ferring this relief of the people.

Most members of the Methodist Epis-
copal Church are Republicans. The Gen
cral Missionary Committee Of that church
were in session in Baltimore this week.
When the place for the next meeting was
under consideration, on Monday, You had
better come to Minneapolis, said DR..
Chaffee. Minneapolis is the great con-
vention city Of America, having made its
reputation by the manner in which it enter
tained the Republican convention.
"Oh, but look at the result y said some
one back in the church, and there was a
general laugh.
DR.. Buckley made speech tavoring
Minneapolis, in which he said that Il recent
meeting of the committee had been held
in Cleveland. Ohio. which was So near
Detroit that several members Of the COM
mittee preached there. Detroit had thus
tasted somewhat OF the committees sweet

Go Where You Belong.

Our giraffe contemporaries, the Baltl-
more Ne,cs and San, now that the election
is over and Cleveland has won, have turned
their batteries on the Democratic Orgdnlza
zion of Baltimore and Maryland. This
was expected. Neither is Democratic
paper, and the regular Democracy would
infinitely have rather had them on the
other side during the late contest. Last
year the Sun was not with the Democracy,
and the Democratic majority was about
30 900. With both of them for Cleve-
land the Democratic majority was about
20 900, or 10000 less than last year.
