TO ACT WI'tHOUT DELAY. Revision of the Tariff to Be} Promptly Effected. | The Republic Bureau, > : ia. Ave. Cor. 14th St. and Penney} Washington, D.C , Aug 39, Is. S| The house ways and means com mittee met today and agreed to} in the tariff, commencing on next! Monday, to be extended until Sep | tember 20. After the general meet ing the democrats of the committee/ed Lew Bowers, wearing a large} held a conference among themselves. There was not a weak voice raised. | Every voice was strong for immedi- ate action and for a tariff that would meet the requirements and the ex pectations of the people. For some time past there have been whispers heard in Washington that some democrats of prominence were using the hard times and the unsettled condition of finance, the “crisis” as it is called, as a shield to protect some of the tariff barons. There is no doubt that there has been a good deal! of fire behiad this little smoke, but it will have no ef fect whateyer upon the house. The men who have been trying to scare the party against athorough revision of the tariff are at the senate end of the capitol. It is unnecessary for the Republic correspondent to name them, as every reader of the paper can guess at them without making a mistake. They argue that the tariff cannot be reformed satisfactorily when the state of business is such that any change of legislation would tend to create alarm and distrust. This ev- erybody will recognize as the old cry. It has been heard before many atime. Eyerybody is now familiar with it. The protected barons will try to create a distrust every time that their especial interests are at- tempted to be interfered with. There will be no halt or alarm on the part of the house, however. Wii son, Montgomery, Breckinridge, Turner, Bynum, Bryan and Tarsney may be depended upon to make a tariff bill not only promptly, but in accordance with the expectations of the people. As a matter of fact, they are at work upon it now. The subcommittees are at work every day and night. They are not letting a day or an hour escape unnecessari ly. They will keep at it. In all likelihood there will be no] recess of congress after the present extratordinary session. If there is an adjournment the ways and means committee will not adjourn, but will keep on at work. It will require tedious and earnest labor to make a tarff bill and perhaps considerable time. The bill that Mr. Wilson will report to the house, and that will in all probability bear his name will not be a bill that will be offered with the expectation of being repealed or revised within two or three years. It will be a bill that he and his col leagues and the democrats cf the country will fairly expect will last without revision a life time. The labor of formulating such a bill, as everybody can understand, is very great, and the democrats of the committee are already at work ransacking the statistics, inquiring into the cost of production of cer- tain articles and fitting themselves in every way for making a bill that the American people will accept. China Doesn't Like It. London, Aug. 31.—The Stand-} ard’s correspondent in Shanghai says | that the Chinese government is greatly incensed over the additional demands made by France upon the} government of Siam. The Siamese | envoys have had frequent interviews during the last few days with Li Hung Chang, the Chinese Viceroy, and it is reported that as a result of the information furnished by them the Viceroy has cabled instructions to the Chinese minister at Paris to strongly represent to the French government that China is much dis- satisfied with the course France is) pursuing in its dealings with Siam.

Anyone of Folsom’s five shots would have proved fatal. Captain Durant was too drunk to shoot accurately. As Folsom is a United States officer he will be tried in that court.

Leading Republican politicians of and it is probable a convention will be called to organize the nucleus of a new party on the lives indicated. A number of informal conferences have been held and the feeling is generally iz favor of the new party idea. Tonight a conference of leading Republicans was held to consider the matter, and the result was the issuance of the call by the chairman of the Republican State central com- mittee for a meeting to be held at the Assembly room of the Denver Chamber of Commerce. corner of Fifteenth and Arapahoe _ streets, Denver, on Tuesday, September 5, at 10 o'clock a. m., to take action. Murdered For Her Money. Caddo, I. T., Aug. 30.—News has just reached here that Mrs. Coch- nauer, a full-blood Choctaw woman, who lived ten or twelve miles out in the country from here, had been murdered and robbed while her hus- band was away from home. They had just drawn their share of the \lease district money, several hundred |dollars, as there were several in the |family. A large crowd has left for |the scene. | Their little child was found out in \the road near by. It is predicted | that there will be a number of like /crimes in the country, as everybody {knows the Choctaws have plenty of | money. Deputy United States marshal Tandy Folsom, who killed Capt. | Durastof the Choctaw militia at Cado, I. T., was discharged by U. S. commissioner Grubbs, at Atoka, I.

By bringing into play all the mili- tary knowledge he had gathered of flank movements and dashes to the rear, with a bark whenever he could} find time to give one, the lieutenant kept the scared beast in the track. The cries of the startled women roused the garrison, and pretty much everybody was on the parade ground when the runaways dashed through. Right behind them came the bear. Half the garrison ran to catch the ladies’ horses and the rest began to pour lead into the gaunt fugitive. Forty yards behind him came Lieutenant Gerlach, red in the, face and uttering uncouth noises still. They killed the bear and then corraled the lieutenant. He couldn't get breath enough to explain for| about an hour that he was not a lu-/ natic, and that he meant to drive the! bear into camp.—San Francisco Examiner. Dislodged Senators. Washington. D. C., Aug. 28.—The senate to-day by a vote of 32 to 29, decided Mr. Mantle of Montana and Mr. Allen of Washington were not! entitled to seats, and that a govern-! or of a state had not the right to appoint a senator to fill the vaeancies caused by the expiration of a regu-| ‘lar term. but where the people make con- gressmen.” Strict Conditions are Accepted. Chairman Wilson has appointed bis sub-committees. The Committee of Ways and Means is ready for business. So is the country. Tariff reform has been ordered, and the manufae- turers themselves have a right to a settlement which will relieve their anxious doubts. All other business ought to know as soon as_ possible what a tariff for revenue looks on like a statute book. Tariff reform will affect prices. If it would not, its winning would be a worthless victory. Tariff reformers predict that the result will be better prices for agricultural products, steadier markets for manufacturers ; and heavier trade for the mercantile classes. Ifthe labors of the com- mittee, when approved by the two houses and the President, are not followed by this result, the friends of tariff reform will either be able to show that the new tariff is not a revenue system or will acknowledge the virtues of protection. The issue is accepted under those conditions. If within six months from the going into effect of the Wilson tariff there are nct clear evidences of a revival of agricultur- al prosperity the Democratic party will confess that its measure is awk- wardly devised or that its principle is wrong. If three-fourths of the manufacturing and mechanical in- dustries are not enjoying prospects of wider markets, the same confes- sion will be made. If the merchants are not selling more goods, the obli- gation to confess applies. Now, go ahead, Chairman Wilson, and construct a Democratic tariff bill. Let no weakening spoil its symmetry. The Democratic is before the judgment seat.—St. Louis Republic. Gu Sroutp Know FA a & Co THAT FAIRBA = OF ST. ounnine ASOAP f cw? GLAVRETTE When Has No Equat. STAN DARD Quaury & WEIGHT Se ut e t- A.
