The Fifty-fifth Congress which metii

lilver elements in the Senate to reorgan

ibandoned for the time, and the iinprcp.

ody seems to think that the gentlemer

ind the other partiesjhave been unable t
gree upon any basis of voting together
The plan of bulletining the nanus ol
ipplicants for the big positions, whicl
las been adopted by some of the Govern-
nent departments, is not pleasing U
mch of the applicants as are in the habit
f adopting the "still-hunt" method ot
iftice-sceking, but taken altogether it ii
ot a bad idea; it makes it reasonably
:ertain that the men against whom vnlic
ibjcctions can be raised will not gecun
ippointmentts. Making the applicant!
jecure the endorsement of all the repub
licans in Congress from their Stntc is an
ther rule that is not popular with appli
cants, although it is calculated to inaki
the President's task a much easier one.
Few, if any, of tho members of th
lew House received n warmer persoui 1
Veleome than did Jerry Simpson. Hi
X presses confidence that the populism
vill elect the next President, and Unit
mtlines his own policy in the prcseni
Congress: "For the present we've got t
et the republicans run the affairs of thl
nation, and t in for giving them all thi
ope they want. Let 'cm write and past
iny sort of tariff act they choose- it isn't
wise nor right to obstruct them In thi
east in their efforts to redeem the lavisl
promises of coming; prosperity made in
the last campaign."
Although practicullv known for somi
time, It was fully decided at the last

President McKinley will be more prmltlvt

A fo.w gentlemen, in and out of Oon

the new tariff bill, Just completed by th
republican members of the ways and

no occasion for surprise. The bill
just about what it might have Uca ex
peeled to be and may be fairly described
as the McKinley bill changed to meet
