Following their nice little har-
nonious caucus various Republican
and Progressive members of the
Common Council have so many kind
things to say of each other today
that they hardly know where to
begin.
For instance:
"Dr. Reich is one OF the biggest
fakirs I ever heard of. I despise a
traitor"
This from Alderman Charles W.
Littlefeld, of the Sixteenth ward, a
Republican, who was defeated as
minority leader.
HE ought not to talk that way
about me-" retorts DR., Louis Reich,
who is also a Republican. Even IL l

Altogether, it is a wonderful tangle.

Alderman L~sttleheld, who was de-

bound to be elected minority leader
by one vote.

rejoicing and the fond expectation
that a real rival had at last chal-

of the New Haven road.
"The diabolical hand Of a monopoly

mediate effort to reorganize the re-
publican party, in part or in whole, on
hard and fast lines could be abiding.
The fighting issues of the next cam.
paign are yet to be brought into sight
and outlined. Doubtless they will
crowd upon one another's heels once
the democratic party comes into full
power and sits down in congress and
the white house to make good the
platform promises to the people.
The announcement of President.
elect Wilson's that an extra session
will open in April makes it possible
that early next summer will find the
mills of legislation running wild on
the tariff grist. And if Mr.. Bryan's
views as to what the extra session
should accomplish are to prevail, the
wheels will continue to revolve until
all the party measures of moment in
the Baltimore platform have been
written into law. $50 ...
Mr.. Wilson would have liked long
er discussion of the extra session
proposition, but the spontaneous de-
mand that the party come right up to
the scratch forced him to prompt
decision and formal statement of
acquiescence. Mr.. Underwood's recent
avowal that bills revising the tariff
are in course of preparation for early
action lets the fact be seen that the
democratic leadership is unit on
mode of procedure.
However, something like year
must elapse before the new tariff and
other radical departures can have
gone into effect and been subjected
to the crucial test of the working-out
process. If Governor Hadley and
Senators Cummins and Kenyon would
only hold OFF till then, instead Of or
ganizing a new progressive party on
the jump and challenging the bull
moOsers to fight for the title, they
might find all sorts of republicans
eager to let bygones be bygones and
enlist together under common ban
ner in grand effort to restore the
status quo.
While the Hadley- Cummins-Kenyon
movement proves that the progressive
leaders still have no realizing sense

& Jim Hill the Empire Builder" has
served notice on the Canadian Paci-
fic that they must not enter the U. S.
thru Montana. Hill makes it an ulti-
matum that if they do so he will
parallel their tracks within two miles
as far as they go. Hill has an exalted
idea of his powers and there is a
rapidly growing sentiment in the
west that it is about time that the
people began to have something to
say about this matter of Paralling
railroads. There is millions of acres
of land in the several states adjoin-
ing Canada that is suffering for want
of transportation facilities and if the
Canadian railroads will afford re-
lief, then by all means the people of
these states should see to. it that
they are offered reasonable protec-
ton and encouragement. Hill has
tried for many years to manage the
political affairs and business affairs
of the Northwest but with the end
in view all of the time, that it would
be profitable to Hill and the time is
ripe now for the people who have
thrown off his political, yoke, to take
part in saying where railroads shall
be built in the future to the extent
at least of seeing that no spite lines
are put thru.
