The Republican Hopes.

The situation Is really a very interesting
one. President Elect Mckinley boldly for
mulated his policy. He was going to have
a special session. He wanted immediate
revision of the tariff. The country expect
ed the Republican party to do this, and 1t
was responsibility which would have to
be met sooner or later. Therefore it were
better to get Il out of the way quickly. In
order to save time the ways and means
committee Of the present congress, with Mr.
Dingley, who is to be the new secretary of
the treasury, at its head, could prepare the
new law ready for congress when it meets
next March. In this way the president
elect hoped to have a new tariff law upon
the statute books by the end of the current
fiscal year, or July /.
This was bold policy, and In the opin-
ion of great majority of the Republicans
of the country and of congress wise one.
1t will be remem bered that foreshadowed
this policy several weeks ago. and every
occurrence since then has justified my pre-
dictions. Until now everything has been
going smoothly. But here come the DEM
ocrats with plan of their own. The Dem
ocratic party is again showing signs of life
and activity. The leading men of that
party have had their heads together ever
since the session of congress began. They
are looking TO the future. They want to
build up their party again, and as result
of their conferences general policy has
been adopted

WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.--[Special lone
result of last weeks sensational political

quickly In the special session of congress

mediately after his Inauguration. They do
expect to have a majority in the senate, as
