After the Recess.

Congress will reasonable on Wednesday
next, the recess expiring on that day. That
body has not distinguished itself, above its
predecessors, for its activity in the dispatch
of business. 1t is more remarkable for
what it has not done, than for what it has
done, and if it could hear The mutterines of
the people in the expression OF their honest
indignation at its inertia, il would probably
resume the task before il with an intention
to devote itself assiduously to its early ae-
complishment.
The tariff, of course, will have prece-
denee of all other business. 1t was the
promise and expectation Of tariff reform
that gave to the majority of that body their
seats and to it they are indebted for what
ever consideration they are entitled to as
part and parcel of the lawmaking power of
the nation. And yet, if common report be
true, there are renegades among them, who
will ultimately be found false to the very
principle that gave them their positions.
If there be such, let them at once be rele-
gated to the ranks Of the opposition; and
let these political jackdaws be stript Of
their borrowed feathers If the bill shall
ultimately pass, an effort will be made to
stave off the period of its operation TO the
latest possible moment, to give time, it is
alleged, to those engaged in commercial
and manufacturing interests to adjust their
business to the new tariff. If the Repub-
lican position be the true one, that the
foreigner pays the tax and not the con-
sumner, what boots it how soon the law is
made operative. If it went into effect the
day after its passage, so much the better.
But every man of sense knows that the
consumer pays the tax, and reasonable
time should be allowed to make the desired
adjustment. Six months or less would be
ample for that purpose, but an effort will
be made to stave OFF the operation of the
law until the first of January, 1895. And
sundry milk-sops among the Democratic
members will in all probability be found
willing to assent to it, The Democratic
party seems to have lost its power of CO.
hesion-almost its identity. 1t falters,
hesitates, and seems altogether in doubt
whether to go forward or not. The Re
publicans have set a different example.
They know what they want and 90 straight
to their object without any weakened
tremors or spinal sinuosities. We COM
mend them for their courage, and contemn
the poor weaklings who bear the name Of
Democrats, but the name is all that is
Democratic about them.
After the tariff, will come most likely,
some further legislation on silver and cur
rency; the Hawaiian question; the Brazil
ian imbroglio; and sundry other matters Of
minor importance. Butthe people demand
prompt action upon the tariff. They will
no longer tolerate policy of factions delay
or a protraeted discussion. The question
has already been discussed and is under
stood by the people generally. All that is
now needed is octiion. Let the Democrats
in Congress take that word for their shib-
boleth
