(From our regular Correspondent.) \V ASHINGTON, APRIL 16,1897. Senator Gorman took occasion to give the republicans a little plain talkiog concerning their failure to accept the very fair proposition made to them for iilliug the committee va cancies and consequent failure to give the appropriation bill which tailed at the last session the proper committee consideration, just before the Indiau bill was taken up* The total of these appropriations will be inure than $73,000,000. and Mr. Gorman said that a careful consideration of them might result in a reduction of at least $10, 000.000. He also said that it was time to call a halt in the vast expenditures authorized by Congress; that the limit of expenditures on the new navy and on fortifications ought to he near, now that an era ot peace seemed to be at hand, and that he thought it was also time to limit the expenditmes on rivers and harbors. He closed by saving that the democrats could do no more than call the atteDtiou of Sena tors on the other side to the urgent need of retrenchment. It is not ex pected that Mr. Gorman's warning words will have any effect, but all the same they were timely, and it was entirely proper that they should have been spoken by a democrat. The country will heed, if the tepublicans in Congress do not. Nothing in the eloquent address made by Mr. Bryan at the Jiffeison birthday banquet, a gathering of dem ociats that will not soon he forgotten, was more important or significant than the following wolds: "The posi tion taken by the democratic party in 1896 will not be surrendered. If jou doubt the permaoeucy of the Chicago platform as a party creed, go among the rank and file of the party and measure the zeal and enthusiasm which that platform has aroused, aud you will realize the impossibility of tskiug a backward step. True," the present aduiiuisiratiou is seeking to turn public attention to the tariff question, but if our reasoning is well founded, an increase of taxes cannot restore prosperity to the producers ot wealth. In fact, we contend that neither high taxation nor low taxation can bring prosperity to the people, so long as an appreciating dollar eontiu ues to give the money owner »u advantage over the rest of the people. The money question must lie tin paramount issue of the next Campaign as it was of the last. If the Diugley bill brings genuine and permanet prosperity, the democratic party will not he in a position to win a contest by oppoeing it. If, on the other hand, the Dingle.v bill provos a disappoint ment to those who advocate it, our position will be strengthened, and public attention will be riveted upon the fact that the cause of financial depression is to be found iu our mone tary system. Senator Nelson, of Minn., although a republican, is in sympathy with the efforts made by the democrats in tht^ Houss to a mend the tariff bill by au thorizing the President to suspend the collection of duties upon any imported article, the home product of which is shown to be controlled by a trust, as lie Iihp given notice of his intention to offer the same amendment when the tariff bill gets liefore the Senate. Secretary Gage's auswer to the Senate resolution concerning the issue of orders by the Secretary of the Treasury to Collectors of Customs io relation to carrying out the retractive clause of the lepnbtican tariff' bill not being at all satisfactory, Senator Vest offered a resolution declaring this order to be without authority of law and in violation of the statutes and customs regulations concerning the payment of import duties, and by a bare majority of one it was referred to the Finance Committee, to be pigeon holed. Democrata would lie delighted to see Mr. McKinley's bluff', otherwise known as the special diplomatic com mission to visit Enrope with power to negotiate with the governments of that section in behalf of international bimetallism, succeed in accomplish ing something tangible, bat none of them have the sligliest idea that it will. The Commiseioners, Senator Wolcott, Gen. Paine, of Mas-., and Hon. Adlai E. Stevenson, of Ills., are capable men, and their failure to accomplish an impossibility will be no personal reflection on them. Senator Morgan closed his long speech in favor of his resolution rec ognizing the Cubans as belligerents by declaring that whatever action this country might or might not take towards Cuba the freedom of the is land was written in the stars. Senator Chandler's bills for the seizures of the armor plants of the Bethelem and Carnegie Steel com pa nies by the government, represents i very dangerous sort of bluff, tor it is evident they are nothing else. That these companies have bAm extortion ate in their dealings with the govern ment is trne, but that doesn't give Congress any right to contiscate their property. Everybody Says So.
