Republican members of congress are
threatening to revolt against the petty
tyranny of Speaker Henderson He is
credited with having all the arbitrariness
of a real autocrat, with none of the re-
deeming qualities of a man of Thomas
Bracket Reeds immense force.
Henderson has surrendered body and
soul to the steel trust supporters in con-
gress and turned against the interests Of
the whole West-his own state as much
as any of them. The Washington cor
respondent of the New York Evening
Post, describing the manner in which
Congressman Tawney, of this state, suf-
fered at the hands of Henderson be-
cause he dared join Congressman Bah
cock in advocating tariff measures of
immense Importance to the West and
Northwest, says a number of other
Northwestern members have Deen treat
ed in the same manner

lowers OF the speaker are proportiOnaliy

have a bill presented by a member from
his state, that the senator would have
to select some other representative than
the one he had in mind in order to secure
recognition The representative, on a
purely business question. in which he re-
fected the common sense Of his state
had voted contrary to the wishes Of the
speaker"
But the threatened revolt will not come
to pass The grip of the trusts on a ma
jority of the Republican membership in
congress is too strong to be broken-and
in fact not many of them want it broekn.
AS long as the trusts furnish the funds
fer campaign expenses of the Republican
party the party's representatives in con-
gress will do the bidding Of the trusts
Those who don't like Henderson must
either keep l-eir peace or suffer humili-
alton. Henderson is the friend of the
steel trust, and the other trusts who
thrive under the special privileges Sc
cured by Republican legislation.

the entire Republican membership Of
the house. AS long as it was thought
safe to do so, the Republican majority
stood as a unit against making any con-
tives of the ways and means commit
tee and the speaker-in fact the cabal
which now rules the legislation of the
country with a rod of iron-having been
whipped by executive insistence into sur
render, come forward with a proposal
which shows how grudgingly will be
given any concession whatever to the
hapless island whose destinies are at this
moment in our grip.
The intervention of the executive in
the matter is clearly unconstitutional
and utterly beyond excuse. The action
of the ways and means committee is
cowardly in the extreme. The position
taken by the so-called insurgents" is
mere political opportunism, without a
spark of principle animating it.
The one conclusion which may be
drawn from the affair, and which is be-
yond all dispute, is that the Republican
| party of the nation stands ready to sac
rifice all opportunities for extending our
foreign trade, if such extension carries
| with it any interference whatever with
the protected industries of the country.

Everybody will notice that Presi-
dent Roosevelt is giving in his
speeches on his tour an especial prom
inence to the question of the trusts.
He has dealt with them in several of
his addresses. The manner in which
he has treated them shows that he
has given much intelligent thought
to them. In his Boston speech, for
example, he pointed out that the
trust was very big question, that
many ways had been proposed for
dealing with it, that he himself had
proposed several plans, among which
was publicity in their affairs and
greater power on the part of the gov
eminent in their regulation, but he
frankly says that he is not at all GER
tain that any or all of these methods
would meet all the evils which are
possible to rise under the system of
monopoly which is now in course of
rapid evolution.

most important ever undertaken by
President Roosevelt and may be more
Tar reaching in political consequent
ces than any ever made by presi-
dent. He will speak on tariff, trusts
and Cuban reciprocity and although
possessing tact and conservatism in a

aggressive and fearless. At the same
time his straight, frank talks to the
people win him general praise and
favor. His direct personal way, freed
from all the arts and tricks of the
polished and trained orator is making
him many friends. The straightfor-

and honesty of his statements. The

neither new nor original. He recent

condition of the country, since they,

licans did precisely what they prom
ised they would do during the McKin-

rescued the country from the blight
ing effects OF the Cleveland Wilson
free trade law and they saved il from

HAS PLENTY OF MONEY.

On Saturday last the gold in the
treasury amounted in round numbers
to 1914, 900, 600 an increase of nearly
$50, 900, 900 since July /, 1901.
Largely as a result of this increased
gold supply the amount of money in
circulation has increased from $2l.l5
the per capita average for 1896, to
nearly 800 at the present time.
The treasury now holds $54O, 900, 600
silver dollars and there are nearly
$40, 900, 900 in circulation against 1880,
600, 1000 in the treasury and $4,000, OOO
in circulation six years ago.
From whatever point of view these
figures are regarded, whether in re-
lation to currency supply or to prices
of commodities they carry a splendid
vindication of the principle and pol
icy of sound money.
