1t is amusing to watch the somer-
saults of the European writers on po-
litical subjects. A day or two ago the
London Daily Chronicle published a
sensational story to the effect that Lord
Salisbury would soon resign as premier
OF Great Britain. It was given world
wide publicity and created no end Of
comment. A few hours later Lord
Salisbury personally denied the story
and characterized it as base fabriea-
tion. The Daily Chronicles story was
about as reliable as a good deal of the
news that we are getting from both

THE NEW TARIFF.
The Prospects of Its Passage Through
Congress and Its Eearly
enforcement.

1t may he hazardous to doubt the cor
rectness of the prediction of Messrs. Hanna
and Dingley in matter of politics, yet they
are probably in error in regard to the
speed which they say Congress will display
in extra session in passing the tariff BILL
They may be right nisaying that the meas
ure will be substantially completed by the
time the session begins, for the Ways and
Means Committee has been busy upon 1T
for several weeks. There is strong likeli-
hood, too, that March Is, the day when,
according to them, Congress will convene,
will not be far from the actual opening
date. But their assertion that the bill will
be in the hands of the President i'll sixty
days from the opening of Congress is
rather hard to accept literally.
This time would be so much quicker
than Congress has made in many years in
enacting tariff law that there will be a
good deal of skepticism in regard to its ac-
complishment. The Mckinley bill was re-
ported to the House April l6, 1880, but
President Harrison did not get it until Sep-
tember so. The Wilson bill was presented
to the House December 10, 1898, but it
did not reach President Cleveland's hands
until August 10, becoming law on Au-
gust 81 by the expiration ofthe time. That
is, the Mckinley bill was five and half
months before one branch or other ofCon-
gress, while eight months passed before
that body finished its work on the Will
son bill.
Nobody looks for a deadlock this time
between the Senate and the House like
that which chung up" the.Wilson bill for
many weeks. 1t is well to bear in mind,
however, that the Senate is an uncertain
holy under all sorts of circumstances
Pledges, it is said, of support for the tariff
bill have been obtained from enough silver
ex-Republicans to insure the passage of the
bill in the Senate, yet the power for OBJ
struction which handful Of members of
that chamber can exercise must always be
reckoned with Many Democratic Senators,
it is true, have disclaimed any intention to
delay the bill beyond the time which they
think intelligent deliberation demands.
Perhaps most of the Democrats will be in
this mood But how about the Bourbons
like Tillman and Harris, and the i'm
placables of the Teller stamp? If an
armistice can be established between the
Republicans and these elements after a
reasonable time is devoted to the bill, no
great delay need be feared. But if the bill
goes through Congress i'll three months in
stead of the two months which Messrs.
Hanna and dingley predict, the Repub-
icans will have no especial cause to COM
plain, although, of course, the sooner it
it gets on the statute book the better for
business and for the country in general

The only criticism which suggests itself
is that Mr. Mckinley has looked very

but as his appointees are acceptable men,
there will b !. no disposition to quarrel with
him seriously on that account. The Good

politics and he is very much in evidence

THE WAY TO TALK.

The Pulaski News-Review, in a recent
editorial under the head ''Let Good Times
Come, speaks as follows:
"While we have always been opposed
to the Republican party and its principles,
still we are anxious to see good times
come to the whole country. If 1t comes
contrary to our expectations through Re,
publican legislation, then we will accord
to that party all the credit it deserves,
We trust Il at when Mr.. Mckinley is in
augurated his administration may 10 be
hampered in any way, but that the party
may have full sway, so it may prove to
the county whether or not it will bring
to the people the great prosperity that was
so lavishly promised before the election"
That is the way to talk about it. All
good citizens want good times,-that is
a prosperous condition. Only partisons
who wish their party to succeed, even if
it brings misery to the people at large, are
anxious to see Mr.. McKinley's administra-
ton fail.

shine of Protection and Sound Money.

THE Spanish Government has found out
that it will not be able to suppress the rev.

from its difficult situation by offering re-
form measures for the government OF the
island. The Spanish Cabinet on the Sd
inst. formulated and completed reform
plans which we're signed by the Queen Re-
gent. The plans, however, are not accept
able to the insurgents. They have fought
so hard, so long and successfully against
the expressions of Spain that they are not
willing to accept less than absolute free
dom for their country. They are right,
and we hope they will never lay down
their arms until freedom is secured.
