REPUBLICANS can have no objection to
an extra session of the 54th Congress at
rs early a date as President Cleveland
may choose to call it. On the other hand,
they will welcome the opportunity of
rendering the country valuable service
betimes. The question is, Will the Presi-
dent call an extra session The Republi.
can House would not be "on his hands"
it is true, but it might interfere seriously
with his personal comfort" There is
some ground for believing that the talk
about an extra session is designed to
rouse the present Congress from its
lethargy and stimulate it to action. It is
easier to believe this than to believe that
Mr.. Cleveland seriously contemplates
bringing the new Congress together not
