THE PROGRESS OF 4 FARCE.

The Democratic minority in the ma
tional house of representatives has de-
clared itself in favor of reciprocity. At
the time it made that declaration The
Clio b felt called on to declare that
the avowal of devotion to reciprocity by
the majority was a fraud. The event has
shown Globe to have been right
When the Cuban reciprocity measure
agreed on in the Republican caucus
comes up for action in the house if Is
to be presumed that the Democrats of
that body will support it for want of
an opportunity to do better, either in
the way of relief of Cuba or toward
tearing down the barriers which are
maintained against the extension of orr
foreign trade by the present admins
tration Notwithstanding the former
strong professions of Republicans in
favor not only of reciprocity, but Of a
general tariff revision.
There is little doubt that the gag will
be applied as effectually to dissident
members, Republicans as well as Demo-
Gratis, as it was in the case of the
Philippine tariff bill. Tire 20 per cent
scheme forced on an unwilling party by
the stress of political necessity is utterly
inadequate to the needs of Cuba and
was only reached after the most shame
less bartering. The insurgent forces
were brought to their senses, as Tn e
Clio b e predicted would be the case.
oy executive coercion, and all the fan
faronade of Tawney and his associates
has ended as it begun.
Several significant facts have been
made plain during the progress Of this
legislative farce, which the country will
not speedily forget. One is that those
members who among the majority are
regarded as leaders have shown them
selves incapable even of pursuing
given course. Another il that
what has been conceded to Cuba has
been conceded grudgingly, not as a
matter of national or even political
right, but as the least that could have
been allowed considering the insistence
of the sentiment of the American peo-
pie in favor of fulfilling our obligations
toward the Cubans. Still another is that
without executive coercion neither the
ways and means representatives nor any
other class of Republican congressman
would have consented to register them
selves, against Che diceggan of the pro-

Mr.. McCumber in his speech today said
that while he had no doubt Of the author

Mr.. Nelson, Of Minnesota. again sup

the provision for the protection. not only
of the president but of all those who. by
law, are in line Of succession to the pres

men. When President Lincoln was muir
dered there was q project involving the
assassination Of several members Of his
cabinet. A conspiracy might Dc formed
at any time for the wrecking Of The entire
executive branch of the government. TO
guard against such a contingency the
government ought to be equipped with
power to protect not only the president
and the succession TO the presidency. but
the very life Of the government thr0ugh
