It 1s a sensible mes- sage, going right to the point without the waste of a single word, and it summons Ccngress to do its duty by the peopl From the Philadelphia Thnes. ‘The special message will be read as au in- vitation to Congress to continue in this path of extravagance. That is probably not Mr. McKinley's intention, but he has missed the opportunity to emphasize the need of economy, and Congress, with a part of its billion-dollar approy thrown back on it by President Cleveland’s passive veto, will be only too ready to take advantage of the omission and plunge into a fresh debauch, trusting to the dubiou: the means. From the New York Times. We should be glad to believe that the topsy-turvy reasoning and quack state- craft of President McKinley's message pro- cced from an honestly deluded mind. That theory of his utterances may not be flat- tering, but it is the pink of courtesy com- pared to the alternative hypothesis that he has sent this message to Congress and 10 the couatry conscious of its perversions of fact and well knowing that its recommen- dations are hostile to the general welfare. From the New York World. President’ McKinley's first Congress has the merit of brevity and point. It is, however, marked by the part- san disingenuousness that has character- ized many of Mr. McKinley's political speeches. * * * * The first message of President McKinley is the message of a Bourbon. From the New York Tribune. The new era begins, as it ought. with quick, sharp work. One half day sufficed to organize a republican Congress, to re- ceive from a republican President a shori business message, and to have presented a well-matured tariff bill for immediate ac- ticn. Platitudes and formalities have gone. Work to repair the harm done by four years of error begins on the instan:, as a mighty machine starts into action at the touch of an electric button. The contrast will impress the minds of men of action and men of work everywhere. From the New York Soa, The President's statement of tne condi- ticns which confront us is an indictmen his declaration that Congress must prompt- ly eyt is a truism, and his forbearance on every other subject and his economy of words regarding even the business now in hand, constitute a promise that what- ever this administration may do or leave undone, it does not intend to be a talk- shop. That is a rainbow. From the Phi ia Public Ledger. President McKinley’s first “message to Congress is chiefly remarkable for what it omits to eay. It deals with only one revenue for message to subject, the need of increased the support of the government, and sug- goats only one remedy, an increase of tariff duties. Not a werd is said about cconomy one of the means of bringing expenses Salvation OD te repeating ite curce of neuralgia, rheumationt, headache and toothache every day, s resources of the Dingley tariff to provide | QUAND! y as strengthening business confidence. The era of prosperity is to be ushered In by increasing the burdens of taxation. From the Philadelphia Record. There will be profound regret—and. 5 deed, amazement—that the President i not think it judicious to urge upon Co: gress the necessity of instant steps toward currency reform. It may be that in his judgment the passage of a tariff bill would have been prejudiced by any unequivocal declaration for sound money, but, none the less, the people had a right to expect some adequate response to the popular de- mand. cee FOUND GUILTY, Cab Driver Who Robbed His Ine! ated Customer. Wright. a young white man, driver of a “night liner,” was convicted in Criminal Court No. 1 today of robbing Franklin W. Bcardman of a gold watch and chain, $7 in cash, a pair of eyegias and an umbrella the night of the 23d of last month. Chief Justice Pingham =r manded the prisoner to jail to await sen. tence.
