Relena, Mont, Dec. 3O.-The ninth
legislative assembly will convene in
Helena on Jan. 2. The most important
matter to come before the body is the
election of United States senator to
succeed Paris Gibson (dem.). The re-
publicans have small majorities in both
branches-six in the senate and two in
the house. Three republican legislative
candidates, however, have filed contests
against their democratic opponents, and
as each asserts he has a clear case,
showing either frauds or gross errors,
the majority in the house may be in
creased. g. =.
The leading candidate FOR senator is
Thomas H. Carter, national chairman
of the republican committee during the
Harrison campaign. Among others who
have been mentioned are former Sena-
tor Lee Mantle and William Lindsay,
republican gubernatorial nominee at the
recent election. It is believed, how
ever, that Senator Carter will secure
the caucus nomination by a handsome
majority. s.. .e~4
Among other matters to receive con-
sideration will be railroad commits
sion bill, the initiative and referendum
and primary-election measure.

EXTRA SESSION In
SPRING POSSIBLE
Congressman Change Tariff Views
Now That They Have Seen
Constituents.
Special to The Journal.

SPECIAL to Ihe journal. co.
snS Ch;ie;ago, IL De %;;h so.A Washington
There may be. an extra session Of
congress this spring after all.
When least expected a new shoot has
been taken in the tariff revision matter.
When congress met on the first Monday
in December it was practically under
this spring, but there would be one in
the fall.
Since the recess began, however, some
of the. strongest men in congress have
made it known their opinions have
changed, and it is likely they will say
something of this sort to the president
before congress meets again.
To Revise Tariff.
While he has not formally taken the
matter up, there is only a possibility
of an extra session for the express pur-
pose Of revising the tariff. If there is
such an extra session it will be called
to meet almost Immediately after the
inauguration. 81
The reasons for this change Of front
are largely those of political policy,
but as the situation is studied from day
to day the republican leaders more and
mo- more are INCLINED ne It to the belief thnt #
should be revised quickly. , &
| President Roosevelt never has
changed his views, it is believed, as to
the general wisdom of an early revi-
sion of the tariff. He did, however,
bow to what seemed to be the general
opinion of the party leaders, which was
that it would be inconvenient if not
| impossible to undertake the passage Of
a new tariff bill this spring.
President Uncommitted.
President Roosevelt never has said
he would not call an extra session in
March or April, but he has dropped the
subject. from conversation to such an
extent AS to lead the members Of con-
gress to Believe he would issue no proc
lamation, until at least after the hot
weather period in Washington.
Now, however, some Of the men who
only a month ago advised the president
| to go slowly have begun to tell him
that, in their opinion, It would be bet
ter to have an extra session this spring.
Their reasons for this are climatic as
well as political, but it is largely a
question as to political effect, which has
led them to this decided change Of
| front.

For Curing Beef.
BY NIXON WATERMAN

1.-THE tender side of n round is best,
but the other side will do. Trim neatly,
and for every twenty pounds of beet take
one pint of salt, one teaspoonful of salt
peter and quarter of a pound of brown
sugar. Mix we'll and roll smoth with
rolling pin, then divide into three equal
parts, and rub we'll into the beef on three
successive days. Turn it each day in the
brine it will make, for about ten DAYS
from the start. The application of the
mixture should be done in porcelain
kettle, or clean tub, so as to preserve
the brine. Push little extra salt into
the hole where the hanging string goes
through. Hang up in a rather warm,
dry place till it qnits dripping, then move
to cooler place.
Before the flies come, rub over with
red pepper, wrap in paper, put in tight
tight muslin bag and hang in cool,
bur not to dry place, or it may get very
hard. 1t will not hurt if the outside
molds, tor this can be scraped and scrnb-
bed off, and when clipping it for use the
] outside should first be shaved off When
Sliced very fine, it is good without cook
Ring, but better when thrown into hot
pan and stirred around moment with
a bit of butter and few spooniuls OF
water; best. when put into hot
pan with bit of butter, stirred round
until crisp, sprnkled lightly with flour
and cup OF cream poured in and boiled
with it a few minutes. A leg of mutton
NAV be cured in the same way; also
small piece of Young beefs liver is nice to
add to the beet sometimes for change.
