THE FAKGO TOftTTM AtfD DAILY REPUBLICAN,
:Hans-
brqugh, who is in Kfew York a 'fiw
days, was interviewed on the business
of the extra session there and said:
"The extra sessron' of congress will
be devoted chiefly to a: consideration
of the subject of Cuban reciprocity, a
matter in which the people of the west
are deeply interested. Of course, other
questions may be taken up. The finance
committee members will meet the latter
part of the present month, and it may
be determined whether anything in the
line of financial legislation will be sub
mitted at the extra session. Undoubted
ly one thing will be accomplished—that
of organizing committee of the two
houses for.the regular session.
"Yes, I have read Chamberlain's
Qlasgow speech, and am sure it could
ber reproduced by republican spell
biriders in the -campaign next year as
an adequate argument for the policy
6'f protection. It might be wise to en-
gage the Englishman to take the.slump
for the republican, national ticket. He
certainly makes a strong protection
speech/', •. r,
'9.'—'The
bureau of lafor is about to issue the
result of an exhaustive study of the in
creased cost of living during the last
few years in relation to the increased
wages. The result of this inquiry
shows that wages have so fully kept
pace with the increased cost of living
that it may safely be said that the con
dition of the laboring men is better to
day than ever before in the history of
the country.
