THE CABINET DECISION.
There Will Be No Extra Session of
Congress During the Pres
ent Summer.
THE CONDITIONS DO NOT WARRANT IT.
That il the Unanimous Decision of
the cabinet After Listening to Lc-
gal Opinions Presented by secre-
tary of War Root and Attorney
General NnDN.

Washington. June 5.-The cabinet
unanimously decided that existing
conditions do not warrant the calling
Of an extra session of congress this
summer. Secretary Root and Atty
Gen. Knox beth rendered legal opin-
ions to the effect that the authority
to govern the Philippines vested in
the president by the Spooner amend
ment was ample. These opinions were
concurrcd in by all the members of
the cabinet.
The decision of the cabinet was an
nounced after the cabinet meeting in
the following statement issued by
Secretary Cortelyou:
"The president has determined that
existing conditions do not require or
warrant calling congress together
during the present summer or making
any change in the policy hitherto
pursued and announced in regard to
the Philippine islands"
II can be authoritativeiy stated
that the Dingley rates upon goods
from the Philippines entering the
United States will remain in force as
heretofore. The president will put
into effect such changes in the tariff
duties on good going into the Phil.
ippncs as the Taft commission may
recommend. The establishment of
civil government, so-called, in the
archipelago, can proceed without in
tsrruption as soon as the military
authorities consider the time ripe for
it's establishment.

cred this opinion;
Zone person has no right to speak
to another against his will or make
it disagreeable for another to work.
A person has the same rights in the
streets as he has in his own home.
The rule of law is that an act must
be construed as not to interfere with
private rights. The right to infiu-
ence a man by Just argument and
persuasion must not be done without
the mans consent. You have no
more right to accost him on the
street against his will than to invade
his home for that purpose. These
girls are not to be accosted on the
street nor to have faces made at
them, nor to be pointed out to others

W. E. JENKINS FOR GovERNeeER..
The President Tells Okiahomnns Hc
VIII be Appointed

A delegation Of residents OF Oklahoma
Territory called upon the President yester-
day in the interests of Governor Barnes.
who is a candidate for reappointment. In
the party were A. II. Houston. J. c. Fos-
ter, DR.. Southland, DIR. C. w. Sutton. Charles
Benson. Charles McGraw. Amos Ewing,
and J. c. Strong. These gentlemen spent
nearly an hour with the President and
strongly urged that Governor Barnes be
allowed to continue in office for another
term.
The President, however. informed the
delegation frankly that he had decided
to name William Z. Jenkins, of Guthrie.
the present Secretary of the Territory. to
succeed Governor Barnes. Both men are
residents of the Territory, and. although
fight between the two candidates is not
upon this score.
Mr.. Jenkins Is. however. a native of Can
ton, Ohio and the President has known
him for a long time. 1t is said that this
doubtless influenced Mr.. Mckinley some

The official announceent of Mr.. Jenkins
selection is expected within a few days,
although Governor Barnes term does not

THE PORTO RIcAN TARIFF.
No Truth in the Report That 1t VIII
He Abolished

There is no truth in the report that the
President will soon issue proclamation
abolishing the Porto Rican tariff. 1t is
pointed out that the organic law of Por-
to Rica expressly provides that the Presi-
dent shall issue his proclamation abolish
ing the provisional tariff only after
means for raising revenue have been pro-
vided by the Legislative Assembly of the
island and put into operation. and the
President notified by resolution enacted by
the Legislative Assembly.
This. of course. forbids the President to
abolish the existing Porto Rican tariff
until all the requirements of the organic
law in respect to 1t have been complied
with. The means for raising revenue has
been provided in the Hollander bill, but
this measure will not 90 into effect until
July l. 1t will then be necessary for the
Legislature to meet and adopt the resolu-
ton notifying the President that an ado.
quate tariff system Is in operation. The
Legislature assemblies only at the call of
the Governor and 1t Is learned that 1t will
probably not be called together until Octo-
Der, so that there is little prospect that
the present Porto Rican tariff will be aboI-
ished until nearly the end of the current
calendar year. The organic law provided
that If the Legislature did not enact a new
tariff law the present tariff should cease to
exist in March, 1892.

INSPECTING THE JETTIEs.
The Mississippi River Commission
Goes TO sOuth Pass.

NEW ORLEANS. April 1.-THE Missis-
sippi River Commission arrived here yes
terday and last night started for South
Pass, for the inspection of the jetties.
This is the first time the jetties have been
visited by the committee which will make
an investigation of the depth and width
OF the channels.
This is due to the fact that the jetties
have passed under Government control.
and that the dredge boat, Beta, belonging
to the committee. and lent by it to the
United States engineers, is now engaged
in dredging the channel through the pass
es and trying to keep it open. and of the
required draft. until the Government can
complete its dredge boat.
The committee reports that it found the
tion and able TO withstand the high water
except in two places. at Lake Providence
and Kemps, La. The failure of the Riv-
er and Harbor bill renders 1t impossible
to give more than $4,000 from the emery
ency fund, and the balance needed to pre-
vent crevasses will have TO be raised by
the levee districts and the planters of the
neighborhood.
The committee expresses the opinion
that in consequence of the cessation of
levee work this year. due to the failure
of the River and Harbor bill. the levees
will be in very poor condition to stand
the flood next year.

pears that some people. members of
fashionable churches, are stretching it
so far as TO play for money in their

Lenten gatherings.
The reaction is not a very unnatural
one. 1t must be obvious to all observers
of human affairs that the tide of popu-
lar opinion has its ebb and flow, and
that action and reaction are as inevi-
table in progress as in physics. The
unreasonable prohibition of all games
of cards, following the irrational pas
sion for gambling which was common
in the fashionable society of the eight
zenith century, has in its turn been fol-
lowed by sort of reawakening of that
passion. Eighteenth century gambling
was not confined to men. Many fine
lady lost her pin money, and sometimes
possessions considerably more precious.
through the fatal fascination of the
cards. Moreover, nature takes care
that the laws of inheritance are not
governed by any Salic decree. Women
inherit the qualities of their fathers as
well as of their mothers, and If man
be a passionate lover of games of
chance and other pastimes supposed to
be purely masculine. his daughter is
quite likely to be gambler in some
thing. whether it is cards. or human
destiny, or other peoples feelings.
These are good and sufficient reasons
why a craze for gambling should APP
pear in the drawing room.
Reason will find way out of this
anomalous situation, as out Of most
other difficulties. if it be allowed its
way. There is no more harm in cards.
per Sc, than in any other kind of
game. of course: the harm comes in
when the player tries TO get money
without having earned it. and surren-
ders himself TO the deadly impulse to
risk money on a chance. To a person
of certain temperament, such an i'm
pulse leads to certain ruin; another
may gamble all his days. take his losses
and winnings with equal imperturba-
bility, and retire with mistaken nerves
and enlightened pocketbook. The per-
son to whom cards are dangerous
should keep away from them, and feel
no false shame in doing so.
