method in which the men handle the OPP

Washington.-The --latest factor to
enter into the seemingly insoluble
problem of how to bring this extra
session to a close is the extraordinary
and unprecedented peace and har
mony maintained by the Democrats.
The one Republican consolation at the
time of their reverse in November
was the assurance that the Demo
Gratis, once In power, would speedily
fight their way out of it again, The
anticipation was justified by history,
but has not been fulfilled Even Mr.
Bryan's assault on the wool schedule
caused only a passing ripple. The
organization steam roller proceeded
smoothly and ponderously over the
protesting Nebraskan, and in less
than week after the event the mem
cries Of what babe fair to be a party
This situation may expedite ad-
journment, for which everybody here
except hotel keepers and tradesmen
is eager. Reports come from all sec
tions, too, that the country is impatient
for adjournment. The session checks
the revival of business that should
have followed the two trust decisions,
say the wise men Of trade and finance.
Why it should do so, If indeed it does,
passes all comprehension. Not one
measure affecting business will pass
this congress unless it be the reci-
procity bill. The house may daily
with wool, cotton, iron and steel if it
will, but the senate finance commit
tee has prepared roomy pigeon holes
for all such measures. There they
will stay even though Senator Stone
carries out his advertised purpose to
move to discharge the committee and
bring the bills to vote.
That program is excellent as a de
vice for putting the insurgents on rec
ord-for it will force them to vote
against the very line of tariff revision
which they were urging last session.
Perhaps men like Poindexter and
Cummins might stand for the reduced
duty On wool but on that question the
rest of the insurgent phalanx would
flock with their foes, the standpat-
ters. Business may rest easy There
