WASHINGTON NOTES.
The senators do not propose to wail
until the luftsu passes the now turlfl
bill, upon which tlie debate was open
ed today to last until the aist Inst.,
when it will be voted Upon and passed.
The senate, committee on linaiice has
decided to take tho bill up at oucu and
to "perfact" it. That may moan an al
most entirely new bill by tho time tho
srnatoisgot through their perfecting
tirocoss Tho llnanee committed has
two vacancies' caused by tho retire
ment of Sherman and Voorhees, which
are not likely to bo filled at the present
session. Assuming thatSoDaYor'.Jones,
of Nevada, will vote with thorn, ho
has said that ho Jwould tho commit
tee will bo controlled by protectionists,
and therefore friondly to the underly
ing principles of the Dingier tarlff"b7!T.
But, although uone of them will agreo
to he quoted to that extent, it is under
stood that uieinbors of the committee
do not like the hill iUclf and Intend to
go over It Item by item and amend it
until it meets their ideas. This isn,t
a bit pleasing to the gentlemen
have been working for months to
pure the Diugloy bill, but they
who
pro
can hurdly bo surprised. Tho constitution
gives tho house the exclusive right to
originate hills dealing with Jthc reve
nue, but tho senate has used Its right
to amend to such an extent, of into
years, that the Me Kin ley aud the pres
ent tariff law were both practically
senate-made.
Those who thought thai the failure
of four of the regular appropriation
bills at the last session Jwould jinake it
necessary for Speaker Reed to at least
ap'po'ml the committees in the present
house to h'indle those bills, iiui.it feel
a little bit dazed. Speaker Heed has
tih )vn them that hu knows a lightning
legislative trick or two. Ho has ru,4
ed all of those hills through the house
just n9 thoy stood when passed by the
last oougross, and that without tho aid
of a single committee, except that on
rules, of which ho Is the chairman, t li
is dally becomelng more evident that
he far as tho house Is concerned, there
is no general legislation upon Speaker
Heed's programmo for tho extra ses
slou. The house has allowed Itself mil
eage for tho extra sosslon.
The senate committee on Indian
affairs has favorably reported the free
homestead bill in practically the same
shape it was passed by thu senate and
huug up in tho house at tho lust ses
sion. It is hinted that some of thu
senators are in favor of using tho tariff
bill to compel the republican loadors of
tho house to allow tho froo homestead
bill to pass that body.
There are two kinds of tariff demo
crats, as well as of money democrats,
aud it is by no means certain that thu
minority of tho house will act as a unit
in opposing their republican tariff bill.
So far as the bill itself is concerned, it
makes no difference whether tho demo
crats vote together against it or split
up for aud agaiust parts of it, but it
may have a very important bearing
upon tho future of tho domocraim
party and incidentally of tho populists,

foundation than thai Secretary Bliss
