for the Democrats to do nothing to
/ hasten partisan legisla ton, particularly
such legislation as to the tariff bill
which had been passed.
There could be no excuse for a re-
fusal to consider the bankruptcy bill.
1t would bring relief TO thousands of
worthy men throughout the country
and infuse new activity into many
communities. Mr.. Bailey predicted
that if the Republicans brought for
ward any bankruptcy bill it would be
the Torrey bill, and ended by declaring
that he would never vote to adjourn
except from day to day until the bank
ruptcy bill had been acted upon.
DENIED BY DALZELL.
It was denied by Mr.. Dalzell that the
rule had any bearing on the bank
ruptcy bill He explained that the Re-
publicans proposed to await the return
of General Henderson. who had charge
of the bankruptcy bill in the last con-
gress. He notified Mr.. Bailey that the
Republicans were responsible for the
bankruptcy bill
Mr. Bailey reminded him that the
Fifty third, Democratic. house had
passed bankruptcy bill which he con-
sidered better than the Nelson bill.
Mr.. Bailey asked if Mr.. Dalzell could
give assurance that the Republicans
would give any opportunity to consider
the Nelson bill, TO which Mr.. Dalzell
replied that he could give no assur-
ances for the party.
Mr.. Bailey offered to support the
resolution if the Republicans would
promise that the bankruptcy bill nigh.
be considered.
Mr.. Grosvenor Rep.. o. questioned
the good faith of the Democrats in ex-
pressing desire to pass the Mason
bill.
DEFIES THE GAR.
Mr. .McNlillin, (Dem. Tenn.), made a
short speech against the resolution.
Addressing the speaker he said: THE
country remembers how you revolu-
tionized the practice of this govern
ment in the Fifty-first congress by
new rules that you might do business
and now, having secured the rules by
which to do business, you refuse 10 let
the house do business
The discussion drifted into an in
formal one, in which Mr.. Bailey. Mr.
W. A. Stone, CRep Pa.). Mr. McMillin
and Mr.. Williams, (Dem. Miss.), took
part.
Mr.. Clark, Dem. MOI. in an anus

which will be presented at the Mu-
sic Hall Tuesday night, Dec Ia, next
week is one of the strongest of war
dramas now on the road. 1t is from
the pen of such authors as Belasco
and Fyles, and will be presented by
Julius Cahn's superb company.
The play is very artistically writ
ten and develops rapidly The sec
ond act is great piece of dramatic
composition. The action is quick
and exciting and the author sue
ceeds in increasing the effectiveness
of the scene by varying the stirring
incidents of war and peril with the
interrupting gaiety of strollers from
the ball room, unconscious of the
danger with which all are alike inn
minently threatened. The story is
that Of an outbreak of Blackfoot In
dians and the location of the second
act is at the nearest military post.
The scene in this act between Lieut..
Hawksworth' and Lieut.. Parlow"
engaged to marry her, is one of many
strong scenes in the play. "Lieut
Hawksworth' has ordered "Parlow"
to inform a body of troops of the
approach of Indians. ''Parlow" had
started but turns back in terror and
the troops were attacked from am.

charges 'sParlow" with cowardice.

Extra Session of the Legislature.

1t is said that those who advocate
an extaa session of the legislature
have almost asufficient number of sig
natures to carry out their desire.
The wisdom of an extra session at
this time is very doubtful. The
best evidence of this fact is that,
judging from the expression of the
press of the state, which presumably
fairly reflects public opinion, the SEN
timent isnot all favorable to the prop
osition.
Republicans throughout the state
are free to say that special session
involving great expense, would be
unwise from political standpoint.
This objection, however, is not a
strong one, it it can be shown that
an extra session is a necessity, as its
advocates claim it is. 1t may be
said upon their behalf that should no
session be held to consider the report
of the constitutional revision COM
mission, the time of the commission
would be wasted and the purpose of
the legislature in providing for the
revision would be defeated.
This seems to be a strong argu-
ment and about the only one in favor
of the extra session. But it should
be remembered that the fate of the
work of the constitutional commits
sion, which seems to have been well
done, would not be settled by its
mere adoption by the legislature.
After that must come the ratification
of the amendments by the people.
Should the people reject them, then
would come the reaction on the par
ty that is responsible for the commits
sslon, extra session and all.
The Intelligencer does not say that
the amendment would be defeated,
and it confesses that this point is not
the strongest one that could be made,
but it must be borne in mind that
there has been no popular demand for
a special session to consider them,
and there has been in fact very small
interest on the part Of the public in
the matter. The greatest interest
seems to be among the members of
the legislature themselves. 1t may
be that they know the sentiment of
their constituents better than the
newspapers do, and if they call them
selves together, will be sustained by
the public There is. however, moth
ing in the atmosphere that indicates
this, as desirable as most of the
amendments prepared by the commits
sion are.
The Intelligencer reflects in nc
way upon the commission and its
work 1t performed the work dele
gated 20 it faithfully and well, and
at least a greater part of that work
would be of benefit to the state If
accepted That fact is not involved,
however, in the mere question of the
wisdom OF an extra session OF the
legislature this Standardization
