PENALTY OF UNREVISED TARIFF
With Reunited Party the Demo
Gratis Expect to Win the Cam
paign of 1902.

From The Journal Bureau. Room %, POst
Building, WGsainGton-
Washington, Nov 18.-Assuming that
congress will fail to do anything substan-
tial in the way of ratifying reciprocity
treaties and will ignore tariff revision,
the question naturally arises, will the re-
publicans or the democrats carry the
fifty eighth congress, which will be
elected next November?
To begin with the democrats, now with
out issues or leaders, are depending on
the congress now about to convene to fur
nish them with plenty of both. They think
that with free silver and expansion out
of the way, the democracy will naturally
go back to the tariff issues of the Cleve-
land days. Reciprocity is so intimately
related to the tariff as to stand. with 1t
in the democratic mind; and, should con-
gress fail to meet the popular demand,
the way would at once be opened for a
reorganization of the democratic party
without friction, on the Cleveland lines,
which would restore harmony between the
free silver and gold factions, and, of
COURSE TemONS IIOIu leHu6ISQlp all men
such as Bryan.
What is stated in the foregoing para
graph explains the recrudescence Of such
old-time democrats as Arthur Pue Cor
man. Under a reorganization of the char
acter referred to- the gold democracy
would expect to have a full share of the
leadership and to contribute the candi-
date for the presidency, unless, as may
happen, the nomination should go to Ad-
miral Schley.
With reunited party, the democrats
would go into the congressional campaign
of 1902 expecting to win. They would
have fighting chance, and under condi-
tions which possibly may prevail, but
which cannot be forecast at present.
might control the new house of repre-
sentatives This of itself would not be
important, for the senate will be repub-
lican for a good many years to come. and
no democratic tariff measures could be en-
acted into law; but indirectly such re-
suit might have an important influence on
the 1904 presidential campaign, and it is
this which may make the failure of con-
gress to act this winter a serious politi-
cal matter.

President Roosevelt has gone over this
whole question with great care, consult
ing the ultra protectionist leaders of the
east and men from the middle west who
differ from them. He is in touch with
republican sentiment and regrets to learn
that it is divided. The eastern men tell
him that the division will not be Sc
rious and will not unfaVorably affect the
campaign next year; the western men
tell him that it will be serious and that in
practically every state of the Mississippi
valley the republicans will lose congress-
men. The president feels that under the
circumstances he cannot say things in his
message about the tariff and about reci-
procity which should be said if he is to

of Arc, whose home is in hated Albion,
and Mai Mcbride, who fought with the
Beers against the English in South
Africa, visited the United States few
months ago. They received an ovatian
everywhere from lrishmen, especially in
the West, where Irish sympathizers are
more easily stirred against England than
in the East.
Both Miss Come and Mai Mcbride
preached the uso of force in no uncertain
terms and stirred Irish feeling to high
pitch. Members of the Clan.na-Gael
were foremost in indorsing the PROPOSE
ton to use physical force 10 attacking
the British government.
Ii is said that fund is being raised
in this country to carry out the plan, ana
that. while many thousand dollars have
been raised much more is needed.
Leaders in the movement are much
afraid of spies, and every precaution is
taken to guard against them. The
avowed intention of the Clan-ua-Gael
some time ago to abandon parliamentary
agitation caused an open rupture among
