THE EXTRA SESSION.

Within the next few days the Presi-
dent will issue a call for an extra ses-
sion of Congress, to be convened Nov.
9. The state elections will then be
over, and those statesmen whose at
tention is now given to mending their
fences will be free to go to Washington
and discuss public affairs. The Pres
ident's message will name the treaty
with Cuba as the special reason for the
extra session, and an effort will be
made to confine the business of the
meeting to that subject.
The treaty of reciprocity with Cuba
has been ratified by both the United
States Senate and the Cuban Congress,
but before it can become operative it
must have the sanction of the House
Of Representatives. 1t is the hope of
the President to secure favorable ac-
ton on the part of the House before
the time of the assembling of the reg
ular session. Several influential MEM
bers of the Committee on Rules, which
dominates the proceedings of the
House and orders legislation as it
pleases, have said that the extra ses-
sion will be confined to the Cuban mat
ter, to the exclusion of financial, tar
iff and other matters. But even then
it is not a foregone conclusion that
action on the treaty will be as prompt
as the President could wish. The influ-
ences that have fought the conces-
eionS m CIlha apohodiad in tba @raatx,
are still active and will make their
weight felt at Washington during the
extra session.

Unruorded Admission,

your hair is rather long" suggested
the barber, according to the Chicago
Tribune.
That's the way l like it," said the
man in the chair. Spare me your
conversation. All I want is a shave"
The barber lathered his face in ST.
lence.
Then he strapped his razor.
Il suppose, he said, you've been
looking at some of those pictures in the
funny papers that show how BARRIERS
talk their customers to death"
Worse than that" retorted the man

The shave he got after that may per-

Cause and Effect.

DR.. Francis r. Lane, until lately d.
rector of the high schools of Washing
ton, says the Saturday Evening Post,
is fond of repeating the following ex-
tract from a composition submitted to
him for approval during the days when
he was a worker in the school teach
ing ranks:
Beings are divided into names accord
ing to that which they feed on. The
lion eats flesh-the lion is carnivor-
Gus. The COW eats grass-the cow is
herbarious. Man eats everything.
Therefore man is omnipotent"

The seat of the national government
should really be removed from the
District Of Columbia to Ohio during the
campaign in that state. So many Of

throwing the burden of her own rank
