sTAND-PAT CONGRESS
WHAT SENATOR DICK SAYS OF
THE LEGISLATIVE OUTLOOK.

1.-THE Fifty-ninth Congress is stand
pat Congress in both branches said Sen
ator Dick of Ohio today, in discussing with
a Star reporter the legislative outlook for
the coming autumn. II look for no tariff
changes during the next two years. The
people of the part of the country where
live prefer not to have the tariff disturbed
1t Is doubtless true that there are rates
here and there in the schedules which are
not adapted to modern conditions and
should be changed. I would favor making
such changes if it could be done without
opening up the entire tariff controversy,
but since that would be the inevitable re-
suit I feel sure that the country would suf-
fer more from the unsettling of business,
which invariably accompanies an overhaul
ing of the tariff, than from putting up for
a while longer with what are doubtless
some Of the defects in the existing sched-
ules'
How about the revenue? Will not the
necessity for more income involve a revis-
ion of revenue laws, both customs and in
ternal. before long?"
1T is hard to answer that question now.
Wide differences of opinion exist among
revenue experts as to the adequacy OF
Uncle Sans present income. We may
when a new fiscal year is under way. 1t
depends largely upon the state of general
business. Good times make a good income,
while in poor times tariff can prevent its
falling away. A mistake was made in cut
ting off SO completely as we did the extra
taxes levied for the Spanish war
1T was, of course, gratifying to sweep
the deck clean once more. but We should
have remembered that the Spanish war

What is the feeling in Ohio regarding

Altogether different from the feeling re-

corrective legislation to protect the public
against every form of railroad discrimina-
ton. That is an exceedingly live demand
of the day. and the people will not be
