POLITICAL NOTES.

Senator Julius Cesar Burrows, of Michigan,
is inclined to think that there will be short
session of Congress this Winter. He does not
gee how anything in the way OF legislation such
as the Republicans would enact can be made
into law, and he thinks that the best thing is
10 dispose OF the appropriation bills and such
other plain business matters as can be attended
to aud then adjourn. The House may pass a
protective tariff BILL but the chances are that it
could not be got through the Senate without sill
yer being tied TO it. aud IL could not get the ap.
proval Of the President, anyhow. He therefore
does not think that any such legislation will
be attempted.
The presence of Messrs T. B. Reed and Serene
Payne in Washington last week gave the i'm
preston that they had met for the purpose of
arranging the organization of the next House
Mr.. Reeds principal Lieutenants in directing
the business OF the House will he the Chairmen
of these committees: Ways and Means. Appro-
priations, Foreign Affairs Coinage, Weights
and Measures, and the Judiciary. And the
Republicans esteem themselves fortunate in
the possession OF men especially well equipped
for those places Wel-considered gossip has
assigned Mr. Payne, OF New York, TO Ways and
Means; Mr.. Cannon. of Illinois. to Appropria-
tons; Mr.. Hit, of Illinois. to Foreign Affairs:
Mr.. Dingley, of Maine 10 Coinage, Weights and
Measures aud Mr.. Dalzell of Pennsy lvania, to
the Judiciary. Each Of these men has seen
service on the committee with which his name
is now connected aud Mr.. Cannon and Mr..
Hitt have presided in former House over APP
preparations and Foreign Affairs. respectively.
And il is under such experienced guidance that
the Republicans expect the business Of the next
House TO be not only satisfactorily but promptly
dispatched, and the National campaign most
materially influenced in their favor.
Senator Teller thinks that Senator Allison
has probably more friends west Of the Mis-
sissippi ihan any other Republican candidate,
though Reed aud Mckinley are very popular.
