at this time must especially iniure
those Of our countrvmen who labor
and who because of their number and
condition are entitled TO the most
watchful care OF their government
Speedy Relief Desired.
1t is of the utmost Importance that
such relief as congress can afford in
the existing situation be afforded at
once. The maxim, "He gives twice
who gives quickly" is directly appli-
cable. II may be true that the en-
barrassments from which the country
is suffering arise as much from evils
apprehended as from those actually
existing. We hope, too, that calm
counsels will prevail and that neither
the capitalists nor the wage earners
will give way to unres soning panic
and sacrifice their property or their
interests under the influence of exag-
gerated fears. Nevertheless, every
day delay in removing one of the
plain and principal causes of the
present state of things enlarges the
mischief already done and increases
the responsibility of the government
for its existence Whatever else the
people have a right 10 expect from
congress, they may certainly demand
that legislation condemned by the
ordeal of three years disastrous ex-
perience shall be removed from the
statute books as soon as their repre-
sentatives can legitimately deal
with it.
Tariff Revision Must Walt
1t was my purpose to summon con-
gress in special session early in the
coming September that we might
enter promptly upon the work OF
tariff reform, which the true interests
OF the country clearly demand, which
so large majority of the people, as
shown by their suffrages, desire and
expect, and to the accomplishment OF
which every effort of the present ad.
ministration is pledged. But while
tariff reform has lost nothing of its
immediate and permanent importance.
and must in the near future engage
the attention of congress, it has
seemed to me that the financial con.
dition of the country should at once
and before all other subjects be con.
sidered by your honorable body
Immediate Repeal Recommended.
/ earnestly recommend the prompt
repeal of the provisions of the act
passed July II. 1890, authorizing the
purchase of silver bullion, and that
other legis alive action may put be-
yond all doubt or mistake the inten.
ton and the ability OF the government
TO fulfill its pecuniary obligations ir
money universally recognized by all
civilized countries.
