THE EXTRA SESSION.

It is well understood that President
elect Mckinley intends to call an extra
session of the Fifty-fifth Congress very
shortly after his Inauguration, to take
prompt action on the tariff question.
Now comes the information that the
date of its convening will be March 20
1t is the intention that the members
Of the present house may have time 10
visit their homes, gauge public senti-
ment on the tariff question, and thus
be able to act promptly and intelligent
ly when the extra session begins.
The conditions to be met need the
most careful consideration. First and
foremost is the steadily-increasing
treasury deficit. The new tariff must
produce abundant Tevenue-ample Tor
all current needs of the government
and for the sinking fund; for in a few
years a large issue Of government
bonds becomes due, which should be
paid off, and the annual interest bur
den reduced as far as possible. Moth
ing should be allowed to stand in the
way pf getting the nation out Of debt
as promptly as it can be done.
That is where the new tariff measure
touches the governments needs. on the
side of the people its Importance can not
be magnified. 1t must restore the con-
ditions on which the prosperity Of the
masses of our mechanics and farmers
rest. The depression in our great in
dustrial interests has resulted in idle
ness to tens of thousands, the destruc-
tion Of their incomes, and to this must
be added the enormous shrinkage Of
values.
These things have all followed as the
direct result of the Wilson-Gorman tar
If law. The loss has been unprecedent-
ed. II is believed that there has been
shrinkage of s5,OOO,OOO.O 900 since 1892.
How far this shrinkage can be overcome
by Legislation is impossible to forecast.
But the problem of more work, better
wages. and consequently an improve
ment in the purchasing ability Of the
The daily morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1883-1899, 1897-02-14

masses must be considered by congress
in passing the new tariff bill,
AS every one knows, the ways and
means committee Of the present house
is now hard at work preparing a tariff
measure. The members OF that commit
tee have all been reelected TO the next
house, and 1t is custom to continue
them ON the same committee. Hence
the new ways and means committee
will have the same makeup as at pres
ent, and the work OF drafting the bill
win not be interrupted,
The bill will be presented in the house
very shortly after THAI body is organ
lied, and the discussion Of its provisions
will be promptly begun. How long a
time this will take cannot be predicted
but the Republican majority in the
house is fully alive to the need OF
prompt relief, and we may expect to
see the bin passed and sent to the SEN
ate by the end Of April IL not earlier
The senate is the weak spot. The free
silver senator's may make n combine tc
hold up the tarif hill unless a free
silver rider is added; but at present II
does not seem possible to prevent the
passage of this bill. In the first place
the silver senators know that no FREE
silver bill can pass the house, and that
oven IL n did. President Mckinley
would uuheSitatingly veto it. The mos
Of them are proteotionists, and they
will. we are assured, pass the tartt
measure without any futile attempt tC
do something for silver"
So ii seems reasonably certain tha'
the tariff bill will become a law in time
to go into operation with the beginning
lof the new fiscal year. on July l.
