NEXT CONGRESS REPUBLICAN,.
No More Talk in Capital Of Possible
Democratic Majority.


Washington, May f5.-Thcrc has been
2 decided change il, the tone Of Tie IT,
publican leaders here especially III the
Senate. III the last few days. A week
ago most Of them were doubtful Of He
publican success III the Congressional
elections next fam ana Il number of
visitors at thr White House went 50 far
rs 10 assure the President. in = CInsui-
inS sort of way. that 2 Democratic
House would not bc such calamity
after All, 50 fdr US his individual for
tunes were concerned.
This Kind OF tax is heard 10 more. Il
met with an impatient response from
he White H0us" ANA u most emphatic
declaration FROM Republican sena tors
that before they got through WITH The
Democracy on the IhlippiIia issu" there
wouldn't De He much fight left III them
as can be found in the hunblest
amigo" in thr islands. The senators
have made good thcir assertion regard
ing The Democrats. for nearly I'M have
been sileuccd by tn" responses Of the
country 70 the Tillman-C armack- Pat
tersou blatherskiting.
Not one Of the Old-lmc Democrats
takes the slightest interest in the dis
cussion, and most Of them do not hest
tate to say that TO campaign can b.
successfully wagcd ny the party Oh
such an issue. They insist that unless
ii can he sidetracked before the Con-
%l5ssional contests begin. il Will end
All hope Of Democratic ma iority in
the next House
Even the Tiliman-C armack- Pa tterson
element arc beginning to realize the
wisdom Of a retreat from their radical
position Of fortnight ago. They have
not only stopped making fiery speeches,
but are constantly apologizing for most
uf their early utterances.
Tie Republicans, however. do not in
tend to permit tLcir opponents to run
away from the issue they created. F,v-
cry mail from the Philippines brings
fresh material from officials there
abundantly disproving every Demo-
cratic charge against the army. and
the Republican senators propose to use
it ali.
When the Philippine debate began.
Senator Lodge asked his fellow Repub-
leans to let the Democrats have full
swing until they had exhausted their
olhtiiIiiit ipils tiIS ititlI WIS ItHeIt'i
to, despite much restlessness on the Re
publican side. The tables have been
turned nov. however. The Republicans
are doing The talking ana the Demo
Gratis are reduced to silence. not from
choice but by necessity.
OF course the Philippine bin will be
passed. ITS enactment was never in
doubt. Before q roll call is had on it,
however. the Republican position viii
be stated 50 clearly and with such an
array Of facts from official documents
that no Democrat will attempt to COM
bat them ON the stump.
The Republican Congressional COM
mittee, after a conference with Senator
Hanna. has determined to flood the
country with these Republican speeches
in reply to the Democratic ISLANDERS Of
the army. and no Democratic candidate
for Congress will be allowed to escape
going on record for or against the
course Of his party in the Senate on this
question. the last four week.
