Discussing the question of an ex-

Jones of Arkansas said to-day:
~ favor it because 1 consider
an early revision of the tariff to
be absolutely necessary to contin.
ued Democratic success. The
effect of a probable reaction from
the enactment of a new tariff
which, my experience tells me,
will surely come-should be Civ
en- time TO wear off before the
next electibn. The full effects of
such law can then be appreciat-
ed by the people. They will be
enabled to estimate it's beneficial
influence and will not be misled
by the army of calamity howlers
the Republicans will employ in
their desperate efforts to regain
control of the Government. The
Democratic party is pledged to Il
revision of the tariff laws. That
is about the only question of i'm.
mediate concern. The sooner we
get a revised tariff the better.n

prevailing here to-day. The speak.
er's interview in New York yes.
terday after his conference with
Cleveland, is regarded as equiva.
lent to an expression from him
that he will succeed himself. He
has all along intended to be a
candidate, and his statement that
he will not be an anti-administra-
tion candidate means, if anything,
that there will not be any candi-
date in the field beside himself, il
he is any judge. Speaker Crisp
has the reputation of being very
good Judge.

yet to select these officials. The

cannot be recognized IN day.
The new officials themselves must
be given time in which to become
thoroughly posted"
"During the first months of his
incumbency, Mr.. Cleveland will
be absorbed in the work of re-
organization upon party lines. l
deem it unwise TO begin the re-
formation of the tariff without q
careful preliminary survey. Should
Congress be convened ON March
8 there would be just as many
bills to reform the tariff present
ed and on just as many lines as
there are members. Ifa continu-
ed session were held for two
years it would De impossible to
bring order out of the chaos. Ny
idea is that there should be ap-
pointed members of the present
Congress on the Ways and Means
Subcommittee with power to
send for persons and papers.
They should sit during the inter-
i'm. They should work day and
night if necessary to complete
the report to be made to the next
sitting of Congress. By industry
and intelligent application they
would be given ample time to
formulate a measure upon the
lines of the Chicago platform.
Congress should be called next
October, when the Government
has got in smooth running order.
The bill formulated can then be
reported and a reasonable period
allowed for debate, and passage
secured without trouble. IF we
pass wise, conservative tariff
law that is generally beneficial in
it's effects, the Democracy will
have long and uninterrupted con.
troll. The Republican party will
be buried beyond hope of resur-
rection. 1t will be known only
as part of ancient history"
