THE EXTRA SESSION.

Promptly at 10 o'clock Monday the Fifty
fifth Congress assembled in extra session.
In the House of Representatives Mr.. Reed
was made Speaker. He had been nomin-
ated by the Republican caucus last week,
which was tantamount to an election, the
party being largely in majority.
With regard TO the organization OF the
Senate, little trouble will probably be ex
perienced, since an agreement is said TO ex
Let among the members ofAAat body to let the
Republicans name the committees and give
the Democrats the offices.
The National Legislature has been called
together for specific purpose. There is
much other business to be transacted, but
the first duty is TO provide adequate reve-
nues for the needs of the Government. No
matter how much we may feel inclined to
critcise the extravaganza of the Fifty fourth
Congress, expenditures have been authorized
and must be met. The plea that the income
will suffice when business has once more
reached normal proportions is no longer
made. If it were within the scope of the
German Wilson tariff to yield adequate rev.
enue, now would be the time for demon
stration of the fact. The imports are in
creasing in anticipation of a higher tariff,
vet the monthly deficit averages more than
four million dollars.
To the solution of the revenue problem
then, Congress must first apply itself. Fail
ure might again expose the gold reserve to
disastrous raids, although there is now a
comfortable surplus in the Treasury. But
there is no lack of other work. Five of the
annual supply bills died, and the machinery
of the various departments must stop unless
the failure Of the last Congress is made good.
No cause exists for serious divisions be.
tween the parties. The necessity OF tariff
revision is generally conceded, while the
amounts carried by the several appropria-
lions can be measured by existing necessi-
ties.
II Congress will cease playing politics,
and promptly get down to business, the cost
OF the extra session will be cheerfully borne
nv the country. Obstructionist tactics and
log rolling, however, will tax the patience
oi the people beyond the point Of tolerance
for the party chargeable with the RESPONSE

BUYING UP SUGAR.

A dispatch from Boston, Mass, says: The
wholesale sugar market in this city has en-.
tered upon an interesting phase. In anticipa-
ton of the new tariff bill which is expected
10 go into effect on May 1, imposing a duty
of one per cent. and upward per pound on
all sugars imported into the United States,
the sugar importers are actively engaged in
buying up all available sugar, both in the
markets OF Germany and Cuba, for prompt
shipment to this country, in an effort to get
the commodity into the market without pay
ing to the government the new tax.
The comparatively small sugar output Of
Cuba, owing to the unsettled condition of
the island, and the inability of the planters
10 grind, has made it necessary to depend
largely on Java and Germany for the pro-
duct, and large percentage of the article
imported here during the past year has
come from these two countries.
There is now stored In Hamburg for ship
ment to this city alone more than 10000
tons Of raw sugar, and steamers are being
sent forward as rapidly as they can be char
tered and loaded. -Four large steamers are
now due here from Hamburg and six large
vessels iron West Indian ports.
The valuation of the sugar on the way
and booked for shipment to Boston alone
will reach into the millions, and the money
saved on duty, provided the sugar reaches
here before the new tariff goes into effect,
will be enormous.

In his message to Congress on Monday

greater revenue to meet the expenditures oil
the government. HIS remedy is tariff law,
and he expresses the hope that one will be
promptly enacted which will "provide sutf1
cient revenue 10 faithfully administer the
government without the contracting Of
further debt or the continued disturbance

during the past three years there has been a
deficit amounting altogether to $137,S11,

from $22 1913 1888 30 In 1899 to $34, 1857 1907 so

ideas OF a revenue-producing measure, there
is no doubt that the Presidents theories will
be given practical test in few months
Chairman Dingley is confident that it will
be great revenue producer, although pre-

hardly been of a character to inspire great
hopes.
