REPUBLICAN, EXCESSES.

Not many years ago congress was I'm
peached by the press for alleged extrav
agance 1t was satirically styled the
! billion dollar congress" and Legislators
were roundly abused for what was term
ed. "wanton waste of public funds.
I But the first session of the fiftysixth
congress has authorized the expenditure
of nearly $500, 600 600 Had the Mica
raguan bill, carrying S141, 900, 900, and
the Rivers and Harbor bill appropriation
Of $16 600, 900 and bill for public build
ings and grounds of So, 600, 900 and a
Claims bill of $40, 100000 been allowed,
then the total appropriations would have
been well on to $500, 900, 900. This 81
gantic expense is the first fruits of Nc
Kinleyism.
1t seems hardly credible yet it is a
fact, that the current army appropria-
tons exceed by $50, 600, 900 what was
necessary to provide for military pur-
poses while the United States was wag-
ing war against Spain. This vast in
crease is significant. 1t means the thin
edge of the wedge to bring about a huge
standing army, so that the military will
have a commanding and over-awing in
fiuence in the affairs of state.
If it takes $50, 600, 900 more this year
than il did last year, when there is moth
ing greater than guerilla warfare what
do You suppose will be required, if Nc
Kinley is reelected next year? The
army will be constantly enlarged and to
meet the growing expense the indirect
taxes upon the people must weigh heavi-
or and heavier. The revenues now pro-
vided by the Dingley tariff, vast as they
are, will become inadequate and larger
import duties will surely follow, which,
Of necessity, will be "A boon to the al
ready highly protected manufacturer,
bat "A terrible bane and crushing bur
den on the workingman. 1t hardly seems
reasonable to believe that the voters
will permit the Republican party to con
tinue in power The Democratic party
is the everlasting and sleepless enemy of
militarism. 1t has "A hatred against un-
necessary armament, while it believes
in adequate defense; it will if given
authority, reduce the military establish
ment to peace footing; it will continue
to exalt civil jurisdiction in contradis-
tinction to uniformed power and it still
conforms to Jeffersonian simplicity, re-
pudiating Republican tendencies toward
and aristocratic forms in off
cial life. 1t is the party touching the
people, il believes in them and viii con
tinue to repo5e in them the final au
thority.

FIFTY. SIXTH CONGRESS.

Congress has wound up its business
and the members composing it have
packed up their grips and departed from
Washington for their respective homes.
To the everlasting discredit of this fifty
sixth congress it has revived the repre-
hensible practice of taxation without
representation. 1t has unjustly inflicted
on Porto Rico II per cent. tariff duty.

against the irrefutable arguments of the
Democrats, who valiently and persist
emily opposed any encroachment upon
primal right of American citizens,
Congressman who voted for this infamy
must answer TO their constituents, and
many of them will surely be given an
indefinite leave Of absence from the ma
tional legislative halls when they again
seek the suffrage.
The Republican majority, while pledg-
ed by It's national platform to secure
bimetallism. passed q law which makes
the financial policy of this country en-
phatically gold mone-metallic. In the
last hours of the session they sprang a
surprise i'll the form Of a resolution, to
submit constitutional amendment
which would empower congress, if pass
ed, to deal with trusts, The spurious
ness of this action was quickly appre-
hended and the two-thirds majority re-
quired, was instantly refused The Re-
publicans had the power to enact free
trade law, which is the only practical
method of striking at the heart of the
trusts but so welded are they to pro
lection that movement of this benei-
cent import, was not given moments
thought While the Republican admin
stration is directly responsible for the
glaring misdeeds of Cuban postal Off
cials, congress is not smirched by what
has happened
