The Imperial Bug-Bear.

The highly inflated anti-expansion
ballon was seriously punctured by
the United States Senate on Tuesday
of last week. The Senate goes on
record as favoring practically the
same policy in settling the Philip
pine problem as that adopted in re-
lation to Cuba. That seems to be
proper way to unload our extern
sive landed possessions in the far
east, and the expression ola purpose
to do SO in the manner indicated,
relegates to the rear the imperial
bug bear with which Bryan and his
followers have been attempting to
frighten other people. Should the
House concur in this action upon
the part Of the Senate the imperial"
issue will be Sucked orange" and
of no further use to the Democratic
party as a rallying cry for the cam
paign of 1900.

Congress.

There has been much speculation
during the winter upon the question
as to whether or not the Fifty-sixth
Congress will be convened in special
session soon after the close of the
present session. 1t now seems prob
able that a special session will be
called. Although the pressure for
currency legislation alone may not
Justify this the early enactment of
certain other measures seems abso-
lutely necessary. There is an APP
parent disposition on the part of the
present Congress to fail to provide
for the payment of the indemnity of
twenty millions of dollars due Spain
under the provisions of the peace
treaty. The ratification,of the treaty
made this obligation legal one, and
one which must be met before the
next regular session of Congress will
open. 1t is understood that if the
present Congress shall fail to make
provision for this, the President will
regard it his imperative duty to call
a special session. Then there is the
army reorganization bill, which is
having rough sailing, and which
may fail to pass, in which case a
special session will be called. The
events of the past year have rendered
necessary an enlargement of the reg
ular army which was ridiculously
small at the breaking out of the
late war. OF course it is possible
for the present Congress to prevent
the necessity for a special session,
but the large amount of work yet to
be done discourages any hope that
it will do so.

The recent banquet and reunion of the

hundred being present The economy
of Nermonters was illustrated by the
story of man who charged his neighbor
five cents for rent of land used by set
ting hen" that stole her nest in a fence
corner and Matched her brood of chick
ems. Another case to the point is that of
a Vermont lady, who, after a Thanksgiv-

threads used in sewing up the turkey
after the ''stufiing" had been pat in pre-
paratory to baking, and seeing they were
