THE ALBUQUERQUE MORNING JOURNAL. MONDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1907. F7 SMALL CHANGE FOR II EARLY ACTION 0 CURRENCY CONGRESSMEN ALL EAGER TO TACKLE QUESTION Those Who Have Not Yet In troduced 'Money Measure Consider Formation of Ex clusive Club to Air Distinction (gpcclml Carmooodimc Morolos Journal. Washington. Dec. 6. Mrmbers or congress who have not Introduced currency billa inee the beginning of the prextmt eefwiun ure talking of or ganizing a club. It would be an ex clusive affair, and meriibeishlp in it would carry dlHtlnction. CongreHS is Just coming to a realiz ation of what a big job it has got to tackle in currency reform. No cur rency bill will be pawed before the Christmas holiday; none will be panned by the end of January nor yet by the end of February or March. The ends of April and May are like wise to come and go with currency re form still In the air. The currency act, If there be an act, in likely to bear date sometime In June. There are a lot of things which could be done at the flint session of the sixtieth congress, but not many of them will. In the first place, there Is the coming presidential campaign to take into consideration. Itmli parties will want to play politics. The repub lican majority In unite willing that the democrats should have plenty of time for political speeches; and dem ocrats, of course, are not adverse to speaking. The Ilngley tnrllT will not be re vised; that was long ago decided. An attempt may be made again to pass through the house the Philippine tnr llT bill, but there is evidenced no great amount of enthusiasm for the measure. Kven should It come to pass the house, It Is morally certain to meet, in the senate, the same fate Its predecessor met. A strong effort Is going to be made v to have repealed the tariff tax on wood pulp. The Increased cost of print paper Is charged by the manu facturers to the scarcity of pulp wood, and though they may not appreciate it, that Is a strong argument for re peal of the tariff. If pulp wood has become so scarce that the demand cannot be met without an increase of 25 per cent In the price of the manu factured article It Is hard for even those buyers of print paper who be lieve in a prohibitive tariff to see the logic of continuing the tax. Consum ers, however, are not wholly willing to accept the theory that scarcity of wood pulp alone Is responsible for the high price of paper. There Is well grounded suspicion that the paper trust may have something to do wllh It, and on that theory the department of Justice purposes to act. If Its in quiries disclose that there Is a com bination in-restraint of trade, the de mand for removal of the duty on pulp wood may abate. Hut if there is no relief from other sources an aggres sive campaign will be waged for ac tion by congress. All the talk now, aside from the currency reform. Is of adjournment at the earliest possible day. Republican leaders favor a date not Inter than the middle of June and would be well satisfied If Speaker Cannon and his lieutenants In the house will be bent to keep down appropriations. Kvery member of the house has got to go before Ills people next year and aslc re-election, and those of the major ity party, charged with responsibility for legislation, do not care to be ac cused of extravagance of appropria tions. Moreover, the condition of the treasury does not warrant extrava gance. The surplus no far this year is some tl3.000.O00 less than for the same period last year; In fact, there Is almost no surplus at all. Itecelpt have fallen off. and unless extreme care is exercised In voting away money the government Is going to have a deficit to contend with nert year." Kxperts agree that had the treasury been confronted by a deficit during the recent financial flurry the situation might very well have bix'ii much more serious. There was considerable comment on the fact that when congress con vened on Monday the capítol dome sheltered five recognized presidential candidates, with other posslbilit Irs scattered around. The gavel in each house was wielded by a man openly In the race. In the lower house. Speaker Cannon shared honors with William J. Ilryan. At the senate end Vice President Fairbanks had Sen ators Knox and Foraker as counter iiltrartions. Thrre a!.uo 'vns I.n Follette, of Wisconsin, who has no Inconsiderate support for the repub lican nomination, and Culberson, of Texas, who same time ago was much talked of as a possible democratic candidate. As Knox and Foraker en tered the chamber they made a bee line for each other, and shook hands warmly and each Inquired solicliious ly as to the health and general condi tion of the other's boom. "Uncle Joe" Cannon reused to talk about himself and the presidency at one and the same time. He was "jollied" a lot by his republican col leagues and given many assurances of support, but his almost Invariable an swer was "Oh, go 'long." What the Speaker would like to know is how much of this palaver on the part of his fellow members is genuine Can non enthusiasm and how much Is en thusiasm for desirable committee ap pointments. And, being wise in his generation, he is not going to get ex cited over what members tell him until after the committee lists are an nounced. He Is willing to accept it at Its full face value a pledge of sup port coming from any member who sought a deslrablo committee place and didn't get it. When John Sharp ' Williams pre sented Mr. Cannon to the house as the "speaker of the sixtieth congress," he referred to the speakership as the second highest office In the United States, and. therefore. In the world. No one Is going to take the trouble to dispute that the speakership, next to the presidency, is the highest office in America, but some of Mr. Williams' hearers wondered if the minority leader would be willing to carry the thing to Its logical conclusion. If the second highest office in America is of necessity the second highest In the world, why not the third, the fourth, and so on? We would wind up in having an American street sweeper holding a higher office than the king of Kngland or the Pope of Home.
