WIN Convene Before Apri, 18th.

VIII Convene BEFORE April 15th.
New York. Nov. 15.-Governor
Wilson announced last night
that Immediately after his Inaugural
tion as president of the United States
he would call an extraordinary session
of Congress to convene not later than
April 16, for the purpose OF revising
the tariff.
President-elect Wilson will sail for
Bermuda at O'Clock today for a
vacation and will return Dec. is. To
set at rest in the meanwhile specula-
tion as to what he would do with re-
gard to tariff revision, he issued the
following statement.
'T shall call Congress together in
extraordinary session not later than
April Is. I shall do this not only be-
cause think that the pledges OF the
party ought to be redeemed as prompt
ly as possible, but also because I know
1t to be in the interest of business that
all uncertainty as to what the particu-
lar items of tariff revision are to 4
should be removed as soon as posi-
ble."
Beyond this brief announcement the
governor said he had nothing further
to say. Most OF the opinions he had
received from public men seemed to.
be in favor of an extra session, he de-
clared.
! The governor did not intend to ex-
press himself about an extra session
so soon after his election. Although
he has favored the idea of an extra
session because the present arrange
ment would not bring the new Com
gress into session until thirteen
months after its election, he had ex-
pected to spend more time in ascer.
tanning public opinion.
! With the time to be consumed in
discussion the governor felt that If an
extra session were not called the bene
fits of tariff revision would be post
poned for practically two years.
Throughout the campaign he reit
Grated that he desired an immediate
revision of the tariff and that tbs
Democratic leaders, knew perfect!
well to proceed about II.
The governor was impressed by tn,
argument also that with an early an
nouncement as to an extra session
Democratic leaders in Congress coul'
begin to take counsel at an early dat
: so that much of the preliminary de
: tall could be worked out before Con
Q gress convened on April Is.
The governor was prompted Incl
Q dentally in making his early an
L nouncement by the fact that man,
z members OF Congress we're desiriou
n OF arranging for accommodations i
o Washington for the extra session
there was to be one.

A Timely Word Of Cautioni

With power comes responsibility,
and therefore the Democrats should
fully appreciate this fact in view of
theIl great recent victory, not only
in this State but in the natiou. Again
is entrusted to them the government
Of our good old State and they must
be careful to prove themselves wor-
thy Of this great trust by making ev-
cry effort to give a continuance of
good government.
II the Democrats in Congress will
strive to do their duty as faithfully
and diligently as President Wilon
will do his duty there will be no
doubt of their continuing in power
for another four years after the 4th
of March, 1917.-Chathaln Record.

A quarter OF a century ago apro

popular protest. Twelve years
ago there were some, but far tew-

Fame for Great Americans; b Il t
these were disregar1ed and his
name was placed by the side OF

hattie flags have, been returned,
without objection and with gem

a triumph of enlightened memo.
ry. 1t ia we'll that some things
should I've forgotten; the hatred,
the prejudice, the pain, the. mis-
understandings and misappre-
tensions. These are necessarily
forgotten, since they cannot be
cherished only by those who have
personally experienced them. But
there are other things, far more
important, which can Iiye in
memory from age to age a n d
which it is we'll to have renem'
bered at this time more fully
than they have hitherto, been in
years n"arer to the ngulst b
of the war between the sections
Among these ale the facts that
the confeipratrs, equally with the
fedrrals, were Americans, a n Il
that among them the same stan
dards + personal character anC
heroic conduct were cherished
With these facts IN view, h e
whole respect of affairs is materi
ally modified from what it was
when they were obscured or over
looked because of passion.
History was made on a tremen
dous scale, and was made irrevo
kably and irresistably, by theim
pact and struggle between the
sections. If it has taken a hal
century for 1t to be accepted anc
regarded as history, we canno

unduly slow in comparison will

we may today consider that it i
