THE STATE BANK TAX.
The President to Favor It's Repeal II
His Message.

Some of those men in Congress, especially
members Of the House, who conducted the
fight for the repeal of the Sherman law,
are apprehensive that If the tariff bill is
not taken up Immediately on the meeting
of Congress in the first regular session a
bill for the repeal of the state bank tax will
be reported and called up for Immediate
consideration. The organization formed to
press repeal is not solid in opposition tc the
state bank tax repeal, Mr.. Warner and
some others OF the anti-silver people Lein z
in favor of repeal. 1t is known to ue the
Presidents present intention to recommend
the repeal of the state bank tax in lis
message to Congress in December, he and
Mr.. Carlisle agreeing on this question. an
earnest effort is being made, however. 10
prevent his espousing this cause. Mr. Ray
ner and others have seen him within the
last day or so and urged upon him very
earnestly the dangers of breaking down the
barrier to state bank currency. Thus far,
however, they have not convinced him.

THAT POSTOFFiCE YAEkN. 1t tTIckle e New Haven Democrats Who
 Have a Sense Of Humpr.


 Many of the Democrats in this region who know the true iuwardness of the sit uation are laughing over the solemn yarn in local paper which described the won- derful feat of Congressman Pigott in secur- ing ths promise of the New Haven post office for his former law partner in about year from date. They look upon the story as neat bit of humor, and though they have no doubt that Congressman Pigott made a very favorable impression on the president, they don't believe that he hypnotizsd him to that extent. They say that they have other ideas concerning the postof6ce. They don't want any more of the ex-Democratio postmaster than the president Is said to, and they are not very favorably inclined toward the gentleman l who is said to bs Congressman Pignte', l choice. The indications are that there will be no change in the possof1ice here ! without lively contest among the Demo crats, and they are not st all certain wha l year may bring forth.
