The 5;5rd Congress haa entered
upon thti last four weeks of its ses

tho few working days now remain
ing before linal adjournment to be
crowded with striking incidents
and ex? ting debates on topics, any
one of which may produce a dead
lock and compel the calling of the
ruth Cnncress in extra session.
Earnest efforts are being made by
Home of the members to avoid this
contingency. The situation, how
ever, is rendered much Io:.-, favora
ble than it was at the beginning of
the version by the fact that the
Democrats have practically lost
control of the Senate, and are so
divided on financial issues in the
JIou.se as to be practically in a
minority in that chamber upon
many of the leading questions at

"Why, sir, the 'Jemocratic party
is just as much alive as ever'" said
Colonel W. P. Morrison to a St.
Louis Pepublic reporter '"They
can't kill it. It wa born in eter
nal truth, founded upon the bed
rock of the people's liberties, and
t :e true principles of honest and
economical government. It liar
buried in oblivion many other po
litical parties, and it will live, to
see the grass grow on many yet un

sincere national party that this

embodied the will of the people. I

crats that have already and fur

through legislation.
"It is true that the skies at pres
ent lower upon tho Democratic
horizon, but during ' these thirty
years past we have seen them still
blacker and more forbidding It
is needless to go into a discussion
of what brought about this condi
tion of party affairs, further than
to say that the Democrats inheri

can administration, and the peo
ple, impatient for promised relief
from Republican mislegislation

jole themselves w ith the idea that
in 1890 tho Democracy v. ill not
come up united, and they will lose
their party advantages of Novem

Colonel Morrison declined to
prognosticate on the presidential
possibilities of 1890, further than
to say that it looked to him as if
Harrison would be tho Republican
nominee, because Harrison was a
stronger man than any of the
others mentioned. If the Repub
lican convention get into a tangle

specie resumption act of 1875, and
the President has said that he
would continue to issue bonds as
often as gold is lequired until
Congress relieve the situation by
legislation.
A President Cleveland and
every member .-l the Cabinet tin-
den-lands and construes the pres
ent laws, it is no Ior.ger a question
of whether one favors the issue of
bonds, but of getting gold, which
can only be gotten by bonds
Whether Congress authorizes an
issue of bonds or not bonds will be
issued. When Congress declines
to sanction the i-rsue of bonds it is
under the circumstances the act of
a coward, in as much as it is shirk
ing a responsibility that properly
belongs to Congress. Reside.-?, Con
gress in providing lor bonds could
accompany il with remedial legis
lation which would put an end to
the gold raid upon the Treasury.
Chairman Wilson is confident
that tlni bill for the repeal of the
differential duty on sugar from
countries which pay an export
bountv, which passed the House
by the very decisive vote of 239 to
31, will pass the Senate and be
come a law. His confidence is
based upon assurances given him
by Senators of all parties that they
would support the bill and help to
push it through the Senate.
The National Poard i f Trade,
which held its twenty-fifth annual
sess on, in Washington, this week,
unanimously endorsed President
Cleveland's plan for the relief of
tho Treasury, which is embodied in
the financial bill now before the
House. This action is regarded as
significant. If the National Hoard
of Trade, which, like Congress, is
composed of men of different po
litical beliefs and from different
sections of the country, can unani
mously agree, why can ot Con
cress do the same. Congress is
d"ing de'.uged with similar en
dorsements telegraphed by organ
izations of business men in all
sections.
The ''drummers' bill," allowing
the issue of 5,000 mile interchang
able railroad tickets at reduced
rates, now only reeds the Presi
dent's signature to become a law.
.Postmaster General Rissell is
is the latest Cabinet victim of the
weekly resignation rjmor. Mr.
Rissell has not and never had the
slightest idea of resigning, and he
is entirely at a loss to know why
he should have been selected by
tho; who seem to be under con
tract to report an impending re-eig-
na'.ion from the Cabinet at lesst
once a week. Only two members
of the Cabinet Secretaries La
mont aed Herbert have escaped
having their names coupled with
an alleged contemplated resigna
tion. Unless something which is
j at this time entirely unexpected
shall occur, there is no probability
that any member cf the Cabinet
will retiro from oflice until the
President does, on March 4. 1897;
