HARRIS OPPOSES REDUCTION.
Fears Sectional strife If Southern
Representation Is Cut.

Senator Harris of Kansas is firmly OPP
posed to any attempt at cutting down
Southern representation The Senator, who
has arrived in Washington to attend the
coming session of Congress. paid his
respects to the President yesterday. He
said aIterward:
Il sincerely hope that the Republican
majority in Congress this year will not
make any attempt at reducing the quota OF
representation from the Southern States
that have passed legislation aimed at the
colored vote.
This would be a most unfortunate time
for such disastrous venture. 1t could
only end in raising the most violent Sec
tional spirit, and the Democratic minor
ity would fight such proposal to the
last ditch. / do not undertake to say
that the minority would check all legis-
lation. but certainly it would succeed in
embarrassing the Republican majority to
very great degree
"On the other hand. II this attempt at
cutting down the representation of the
South be dropped. the minority in Con-
gress stands ready to give its patriotic
assistance in furthering legislation. The
minority is not disposed 10 make any
factious fight.
We face grave questions that must be
solved and they ought to be acted upon
with all the wisdom and foresight that
the nation can summon. 1t would be folly
for the Republicans to prevent harmoni-
GUS action on these subjects by angering
the minority through the passage OF le-
apportionment bill which would decrease
representation from the Southern States.
do not believe the Republicans will try
such thing. They want harmony in this
Congress"
Senator Harris, who is prominent
member of the Nicaragua Canal Commit
tee, expressed the belief that the Canal
bill will be passed at this session.
There is much opposition in the West
to the Ship Subsidy BILL" he said. If the
shipyards are so prosperous as We are led
to believe there is no need for them ia
receive subsidieS In any event the farmers
of the West object to being taxed for the
support Of the shipping interests"

Through this treaty, the retail trade be-

greatly increased. These trade transact
tons can now be carried out in two weeks.
Venezuela has parcels post arrangement

Venezuela have hitherto gone to French

these transactions, the advantage in IA

this trade must necessarily come to this
