New Mexico and Oklahoma, we'll in
hand and will be ready to report it on
the 3rd. of December. The immlgra-
tion bill which passed the House at
the last session awaits the action of
the Senate and it is hoped by the adj
ministration officials that the Cuban
treaty will be rea .ly to be sent to the
Senate at an early date.
XIX
Representative Richardson is in
Washington and states that the adj
ministration can count on the demo-
cratic minority in the House for the
support of any genuine antitrust
legislation. Mr.. Richardson does not
believe that the republicans will dare
to enact any legislation inimcal to
trust interests but hopes they will and
will marshall his forces in the House
in support of it in the event of any
serious attempt IN that direction. Mr..
Richardson expresses himself as salts
fed with the result of the elections.
He says that in view of the increased
membership IN republican states and
the fact that the states had nearly all
been redistricted by republican legis-
latures the democratic showing was
surprisingly good. He looks forward
to seeing the republicans fail to
"maSe good" as the President ex.
pressed it IN New York, and antici-
pates sweeping democratic victory
In 1904.
XXX
The President, encouraged by the
attitude of the people towards his
Cuban policy has sent General Bliss
to Havana armed with all the powers
OF minister plenipotentiary to con-
clude reciprocal treaty with Cuba.
This treaty provides that there shall
be no reduction of Cuban duties on
imports from the United States but
that there shall be an increase of all
duties by SO per cent on goods com
ing into Cuba from other countries.
This, it is calculated, will give the
United States a monopoly of the
Cuban trade and in return General

XIX
That the Cuban treaty, even if sue
cesstully negotiated, Will be ratified
with as little difficulty as the Presi-
dent seems to anticipate does not
seem to be the opinion Of some Of the
members of his party. 1t is, of course,
true that large number OF the voters
have expressed themselves in favor of
the policy but the Beet Sugar Trust
has not and Mr.. Henry T. Oxnard
has come to Washington to see about
1t. Mr.. Oxnard has taken house in
which he will be able to entertain as
lavlshly as he did last winter. That
Mr.. Oxnard intends to oppose the
policy of the President is a foregone
conclusion. That he considers that
the chances of success are good is
equally certain. With the matter
coming only before the senators, who
are less directly responsible TO the
people than are the representatives,
he will find it easier to influence
votes. The policy of the opponents,
in SO far as it is outlined, will be to
make it a condition of vote for the
Cuban treaty that vote be pledged
for some OF the other reciprocity
treaties to which the various protect
ed interests are bitterly oppos ed and
thus it is hoped to defeat all reclpro-
cal legislation.

WASHINGTON.
From Our Regular Correspondent.

From Our Regular Correspondent.
Washington, November a., 1902.
Numerous reports are being received
in Washington which are causing con
siderable anxiety to the friends of the
president. Within the past week
Senator Hanna made public a state
ment to the effect that he was in ex-
cellent health and that there was no
truth in the report that he would be
obliged to retire from active political
life. Now there comes from the
south story to the effect that the
southern organization is displeased
with Mr.. Roosevelt and will cast their
ballots for Mr.. Hanna at the mex,
national convention, whether he
authorizes the use of his name or not.
The center of the disaffec;ion seems
to be in Alabama where the Presi-
dent has recently removed a District
Attorney and collector of internal
revenue because of their efforts to
eliminate the negro element from
participation in republican affairs,
while District Attorney Reece and
Postmaster Hughes are threatened
with dismissal for the same cause.
XXX
The charge is made that Mr..
Roosevelt flIrted with the lily white
organization and encouraged its mem
bers to believe that they could count
on him for support until he made up
his mind that they could not "de-
liver the goods" and that then he
abandoned them and turned to the
old line colored organizations for
support. The "Whites now claim
that they can see possible chance of
victory ahead provided they can count
on co operation from Washington but
that they cannot depend on Mr.
Roosevelt and they could on Mr..
Hanna. Postmaster General Payne
says that the President will not
countenance an effort on the part of
republicans in any part of the country
to deprive duly qualified voters from
exercising their political rights. That
sentiment the southern republicans
characterize as very beautiful and
Qulxotic but entirely too chimerical
for practical politics. Whether the
insurgents will be able to effect any.
thing in the national convention it is
impossible to foretell but it is believed
by many politicians that the Senator
from Ohio would welcome any dis.
affection which would warrant his
assuming the republican leadership.
There are active preparations going

father came home for his dinner at
noon, but not mouthful could he

slammed the front door, left a strong

The Fstherite Again Honors Us.
Editor MERIDloNAL:

Editor MERIDlONAI:
The city is now in the midst of a
vigorous, united street car employees
strike, and unless closely associated
IN it one does not realize fully the
inconvenience TO be endured or does
not know just Vhat the situation
means to all classes of people and
especially the business world. Last
Saturday night at a special meeting
of two street car employees unions
in the city hall they decided unani-
mously in favor of a strike, ana
Sunday morning at 4:30 O'Clock
found all the street cars ''tied up
The strikers are contending that
eight hours shall consist OF a days
work and that they shall receive 20
cents an hour or two dollars q day
instead Of Is cents an hour. The
Tnemen's union has offered to help
and cooperate in every way with the
strikers, and will, if the exigencies
Of the situation require it. discon-
tinue work, tamper with the wires
in which case the city will be thrown
into absolute darkness. The police
forces and militia are warned to be
in readiness forcing signs Of violence
on the part of the strikers, and on
the other hand the strikers have
been counseled to preserve peace and
order until their demands are adjust
ed in some way. No one knows how
long the strike will last or in what
way it VIII terminate, but as yet
there have been no Disturbances in
| the ranks Of TIE union men. This
is said to be the most orderly strike
that has ever taken place, yet the
men are determined to have their
demands granted, and it is the gener-
al opinion that trouble will come be-
fore it ends. Now and then mail
car is seen TO be running the graunt-
let, and people are walking to and
from business and pleasures in q
manner never before known in the
history OF the city. Il is already
quite familiar to see fashionably
dressed people at any time riding on
wagons, drays, bum carts and in
"any old way through the princi-
pal streets of this city. These trough
and ready" riders cost from ten to
twenty-five cents for the distance Of a
| few blocks, and it costs neat little
| sum to get moved from one quarter
to another. The greater part of the
work that was done by the trolley
cars is now numerically heaped up
on natures dumb animals, and ii is
not an uncommon sight to see trains
fall on the streets from sheer exbaus-
ton, Old vehicles of all kinds and
conditions that have for years been
on the retired list are now appearing
as necessity requires, and help tc
swell the odd and novel features in
cident to strike. Even the ponies
from Audubon Park have been press
ed into service. The city is noN
! almost SIS quiet as country town
and every one misses the merry
giugle of the trolley car bells, The
majority of the public are in sympa,
thy with the strikers. but even 50
there are a great many "kickers'
against the changed conditions.
