Kjrrautla j WASHINGTON LETTER. From our Regular Correip ondent. Interesting bat conflicting reports are coming from Ojb ter Bay regarding the extra ordinary session of Congress n d financial legfalation. rom the "high authority'' quoted it is evident that the resident himself is at sea in lis efforts to serve all inter ests. Bound by what he re gards as a pledge, to urge the consideration of the Cuban reaty legislation in advance of the financial measure now )eing prepared by Senator ildrivh aud his fellow mera hers of the sub-committee ol he Senate finance commit tee, the President is neing subjpet to such slrong press ure from thecapitalisticelass es in the east that be has been compelled to consider the advisability of calling Congress in extra sesssion " t .a a a even earner tnan naa oeen anticipated, November 9th. That the President has seri ously contemplated such a move is proven bv an inter view Senator Aldrich gave to the nress in which he refers o the likelihood that Con gress will be called to con vene in October. No sooner was the possibil ityofsuch an early session earned in Washington than it was met with the pro ttsts .of the practical poN ticians who say that they will be fully occupied with the various state elections fri October and that no mem ber of (Congress can be spar ed to attend to national af fairs until the November elec tions are disposed of. Atten tion is called to the precarN ous situation in, Ohio, where the democrats give promise of actine as one man to de feat Senator Hanna by elect ioir a leeislature hostile to him. The Secretary of Agri culture has even promised to go to Uhio and taKe t n e stump to save the day for the Ohio leader and it is ap preciated that the most ener getic measures must be ta ken to 'recoup the political fortunes of the patron of Per ry Heath, August W. Ma chen. "Cliff" Long, and oth er members of the "Ohio gang." The situation in Rhode Is land is also most alarming tp the republicans. The dem ocrats in that state have made unprecedented gains and bid fair to control t hje legislature and all other lm- oortniit offices, if they are 0 successful this fall it will en tirely disrupt the republican machine and there will be ev ery c h a n c e that tbe leg islature elected a year later, will defeat Senator Aldrich, who comes up for re-election then, and will send a deuoo crat to the Senate. In the face of this alarming state o affairs the republicans fee that they must put forth ev ery effort to save the state and ultimately to Bav t h laader of the republican par ry in tbe Senate. There is also an important contest on iu West Virginia where the republicans a r e badly divided, many mem bers of the party baying de termined that they will no longer berepresentedbySena tor Scott, whom they approp riate is bound and foot to the great coal, iron and' rail way interests of the state. Under these conditions the regular members of the par ty are being urged to enter the state and exert their best efforts to save Scott from defeat. These are only m m . a 1 tit a few 01 tne prootems tnar confront the republican lead ers and which would be seri ously aggravated if Presi dent Roosevelt were to call Congress in session in ad vance of the elections On the other band, the condition of the stock mar ket is occasioning the finan cial experts of the rppnblicau party the greatest anxiety. The situation in such that at present the Secretaiy of the Treasury is powerless to telieve the market. The peo ple, that is the outsiders and a ordinary mvesters, nave come to see that prices have been inflated as a result of the hurrahing over an entire ly artificial prosperity, and thev simply refuse to buy Mr. Margan's "undigested se eurities". Now, say the finan cial experts, if there should come a money stringency as a result of the call for money to move the western crops, there would follow a panic of serious proportions and re cover.v from it would be bo slow that it would inevitably shatter the vaunted prosper ity which is expected to re turn Mr. Roosevelt to t h e White House, and the people would turn to the democrats to revise the tariff and re lieve the consumers from pay ing the heavy tribue now ex acted by the trusts. Under these conflicting arguments President Roosevelt eyident Ij does not know which way to turn. Cable communication has finally been reestablished with Bogota and the news re garding the Panama Cana treaty is most discouraging to the advocatesofthe route No test vote has thus f a been taken in the Colombian Congress but a committee vote showed seventeen for amendments while two who voted against the amend ments will vote against the ratification of the treaty it self. Senator Cullora has been at Ovster Bay in conference with the President, and now makes the surprising sugges tion that if Colombia refuses the privilege sought the Uni tod States might makeatrea ty direct with Panama which is virtually saying that the United States would eneour ace Panama to secede from the United states of Colom bia. and establish a separate governmeut in order to giv the United States the desired stiip of Colombian territory The expected indictment in the Postoffice investigation have not Been brought in, al though it is certain that they will be forthcoming in time, probably within ten days. With the batch of indict ments now under consideia tion before the grand jury and two more caws, which it is expected will be brought before the jury at tiQ r;ii I v date, the postofflce investiga tion will doubtless cbmt to no end. The dismissal of M. A. W. Louie has been definite ly determined upon. Louis was a protege of former First Assistant Postmaster Gener al Heath, and has been found to have been grossly culpa ble in the purchas of ink, if not guilty of collusion, It is also believed that John M. Masten, assistant superinten of the railway mail service, will have to go aud numer ous other dismissals are un der contemplation. No at" tempt to arrest George W. Beavers, the indicted postal official, lias bcea made thus ar. FREE TO OUR READERS. Botanic Blood Balm for the Blood.

Cot Them 8hort. ews and Observer, Though silent in seven lan guages upon all matters con. nected with.his supposed can idacy for the Presidency udgo Parker, of New York, is ready enough to talk upon other important topics. And le always talks, too, with good sense andpractical wis dom. His latest utteranco is with reference to the long residential campaigns and he is quoted as saying; 'In the days of our fore-fa thers ora tors and stum pspea kers traveled on horRe back or on foot, and the newspn pers, com pa led with those of oday, were slow mediums or thedisserainationof news. Sveu the farmers in these days are reading the daily new sua ners to a, large ex ent instead of the weeklies! of former days and of former generations. It mightbethat the country would welcome a cutting down of the cam paign period." Judge parker is eminently correct, our national c a m- paigns are too long. If five months was necessary forty . a 1 years ago, two monms is ojg enough now. This is tbe dnj ot quick communication and transportation. It was at a national' convention that tbe value of the tele graph was first practically demonstrated. Its triumphs ought to have some effect in changing the time of hold ing national conventions. Long campaigns when not neceesary demoralize busi . - a ness and divert from the or dinary channels the thoughts aud efforts of thousands of the smartest men in Ameri ca. This was once. necessary, but in this day of telephones honeycombing the country, telegraphs going along all railroad lines and into theru ral districts, the rural deliv ery carrying mail every day into many sections and in others the Star Route carry ing mail twice a week, tbe growing in circulation of dai y newspapers, the spread of general intelligence all these things make unnecessary the large expenditure of time and energy required in a presiden tial campaign of the last de cade. In many ways it would be better if the election could be held in September so t h a the campaign could be ended before the rush of fall busi ness. But as that may not be feasible there is no good reason why nominating con ventions should be held be fore the first of September. Two months is long enough for- a campaign and it would be n good innnovation if Mr. Roosevelt would inaugurate it next year. By common ens torn the party that is "in" boltlH the firut conventntion and the leaders of the repub lican party will defer to the President as to the time of holding the national conven tion.
