logicians and the humorists of the houso.
On the other sldo of the question there ap
peared n new champion , Mr. Evciett ol
Massachusotls. Ho Is n line speaker nnd
ntlrueled the ntlcnllon of his colleaeucs.
Ho , besides having a good delivery , has n
keen apurociallon of humor , and commanded

Iho clearing houses In the great cities shoulc !

The speaker retorled rather -tartly tlu
the committee on rules was nol rcsponslbl
for Ibis action. The remedy , if remedy wet

The icsolutlon was then .adopted and Ih

Mr. Untslish , democrat , look Iho sun

fealed In Iho objecl which H had oxpeelc
to attain nnd the law was an obslaclo lo a
Inlcrnatlonal agreement. But while li

Mr. Ste-varl gave a hislorv of Iho recei

clared the Sherman act must not bo r
pealed until Iho whole question was Invest

a money metal piovidcd for. II
did not believe iho senate or U
house- had any Intention of plunging il
country into iho misciv which awaits U
single gold standard. Ho hoped Iho pein
Ing bill would bo stripped of objcctlonab
features and passed. This was no Urn
however , for Ihe banks lo ask a furllu
subsidy unt l every offoi I was made torclioi

The democrats In congress are worrying
over the commercial outlook. They nro di
vided and quart ellng among themselves on
the silver question , and many of thorn are
being turned away from party moorings on
the tariff question. The rabid friends of sti
ver In the democratic party and they are
largely In the majority are declaring that
the present silver law has nothing to do with
the present financial stringency and scarcity
of money. While many of them will not
venture to dcclato that the trouble' Is duo to
anticipated revisions of the t\rllt nnd tlio
first-comings of free trade , there are other
democrats who openly aunounco , in their
strong advocacy of silver , that the trouble
originated with the manufacturers nnd is
uo to grave apprehensions as to tariff re-
Istoii.
Before the silver debate Is finally ended
must of necessity bo some hot words
, nd antt democratic sentiment by democrats
n both houses of congtcss. Secretary Car-
slo and Chatiman Springer of the commit-
co on ways and iiioatis hava both stilted in
irivato during the past few dajs that the
.rouble . which must bo cncouuteted mure-
Salon of the tat Iff w 111 como when the bill

They also have intimated that the quatrol

ion hill was before the senate two j ears

, vill bojomod by tariff protection democrat'
ivhen It tomes to a revision of the tariff ,
This would indicate an expectation on the
: mrt of the administration of defeat for unj
.adical tariff measure. It Is very well
known that such democrats as Goiman , whc
is Inigely Interested In coal and lion mining
McPhetson , vvho o state of Now Jot soy Is
jnc of the greatest In manufactuilng inter
ests In the country ; the two senators ft on

oinia , who represents thogtcatest vviiiounc :
: rult grow Ing tnteiest in the United States
ivould bo glad to find some good excuse foi
antagonizing an extreme tariff me ism" , anC
since these men may not be the kind ti
countenance any combination , between silvei
democrats nnd tariff republicans , they stain
in the wa.v of the administration i.hould il
attempt to pass an cxticmc tut HI bill in UK
face of a combination oltected upon sllvei
and turift lines , as tliey will not suffer tin
adoption of a mo isuro which w ill Injure cor

Vtcnterii Men In a Tight 1 1 ox.
It is almost nmusliift to note the squlrmlnf
of some populist ana dcmociatlc ropresenta
lives from the west. Their constituents an
sutTei ing greatly from the present limmcia
disturbances and are appealing to them ti
votofor any proposition which will affou
relief. Tneso men ate fully convinced tha
the silver purchasing law has nothmir to di
, vith the lack of confidence in business com
nunttics and the haid times in geueiul
They uro fully convinced that it is the an
pichensionas to dibturbunces in mmuf.lc
luring circles which will c mo when the nov
tariff takes effect These men would b
very glad to see the mujoUty In congrcs
promulgate an announcement giving" tin
date on which the new tat iff lawistogi
into effect and something of an outline as t
w hat the now law will bo the general pnn
ciplcs which will churactetlze it. Thev wer
elected on a platform declating foi tadic.i
tefoim of the tariff , and they ni
apparent believers In an c.tily. rovl
sion in the uitifl. Should they opcnl ;
support a resolution announcing the tani
policy of thn picsQjit aitmlnihtra-lon , thr
would discredit their public announcement
that a lovlsion of the taiiiT was noccssar ;
for the prosperity of the country. If the ;
icniain silent and witness the suffciiuj
which is now being borne by business mei
and se.idlly refuse to suppoit the uncon
ditlonal icpeal of Iho silver purchasing ncf
they will either acknowledge themselves t
bo dumb hoforo action , indifferent as to tb
interests of their ( .oiistituents , or not tru
friends of silver. If tl.oi continue totcfus
to laj the icbponalbllity for piescut busines
ttoublcs upon anticipated tailff lolslutioi
and lofuso to vote for the repeal of the silvc

their situation will glow woiso from day t

He felt that national banks would wl

banks would secure the maximum of clrcnl ,

tlon of bank circulation and the Issuance i
the money direct from the goveiument , 1
would not favor the abolition of the n

was a piomlnciit planu in the democrat

"In fin thi'f response I have to say that 10-
