Washington, Dec. /, 1902
Congress il again in session. With
strong republican majoLities in both
chambers and with "A republican Presi
dent in the White House there will be
no obstacles to the enactment of such
legislation as is essential to the ma
TONS welfare and there will be time
for little more during he current SEES
sion. When Speaker Henderson lift
ed the gave! to call the House to order
he was treated to an ovation for it
was realized that it was the last time
he would open q session of the House
of Representatives,. Before the opening
however, a similar ovation had been
given to Representive Cannon who is
regarded as the ass Ired Speaker OF
the next House and many hearty con
gratu,atiols Were extended.
Even this early in the session may
be said with every assurance that
there will be no tariff revision before
the 4th of March Senator Frye and
Representative Payne have both
assured your correspondent of this
fact and there is no one more compel
| ent to speak Even Senator Hans
brough, who represents the tariff re-
1 vision sentiment Of the Northwest,
says that there will be no time for tar
i'll revision during the short session.
Senator Frye predicts that there will
/ be anti trust legislation which will be
in the nature of amendment to the
4 Sherman law and will conform to the
/ recommendations of Attorney Gener
I nj Knox az they were voiced in his
now famous Plttsburg speech Mr.
/ Frye said that he could see no possible
! objections to such legislation and that
he believed Congress stood ready to
80 amend the law as to make it meet
those requirements which the Attorn-
/ ey General had learned from expert
/ ence TO be essential
( Referring to tariff revision, Senator
1 iiansbrough said, The Dingley law

Is no reason to fear II panic or any
thing approaching hard times even if
the tariff is revised by its friends The
. making of a tariff bill, however, with
its four thousand or more articles to
be considered, is u tremendous task
1t cannot be done during a short SEES

Superior experienced its first touch
of real winter weather this week

few degrees below zero. While other
places down the state have been Wis

weather in Superior has been fine,
with only a furry OF snow The

that we owe ourselves much. General
tariff revision, however, is altogether
IA different matter. Congress n ust
have ample time before it when a tar
III law is to be enacted. 1t should
have q long session, or better still, an
extra session when Congress can pay
particular attention to the business in
hand.n
A vigorous effort is to be made ear
ly in the session to secure TIE passage
of the Ship Subsidy bill. Referring
to his measure, Senator Frye said,
that the organization of the Morgan
shipping syndicate presented new
and urgent reason for the passage of
the bill II the Shipping bill became
a law at this session of Congress a
