FOR THE
HIDDEN CHECK.
INTEREST IN THE SESSION.
For th. Firot Time In Many Year*
Democrat! Control.
Elements In the extra session of con
gress are unusual. President Wilson
has called the great body together at a
time when his party tins absolute con
trol of every branch of the govern
ment relating to legislation.
This has not been the ease la-fore In
twenty years. During that period of
long ago when the Democrats were In
power President Cleveland called an
extra session, but the conditions were
vastly different from now.
The extra session under President
Wilson Is remarkable Itecuuae the law
makers to a large extent are men of
comparatively recent vise */> promi
nence. Because of the fact that the
Democratic party Is providing a change
from Republican rule for the first time
In sixteen years great Interest Is cen
terod upon the- doings of congress.
Virtually anew generation of legis
lators has sprung up With hut a very
few exceptions there are no men who
figured In congressional doings of
twenty years ago who are sharing the
responsibilities of the body now.
Of only line tiling has the public been
absolutely certain, and that is that rhe
tariff would be first and foremost
among the subjects for work by the
legislators, and that revision downward
would be the purpose. The legislators
themselves have not known Just how
the revision Is to be managed, and It
lias been well understood that they
would not all be pleased over ail
the details of the ultimate changes.
The subject haa been thrashed over so
often and earnestly that Its intricacies
have become feared
The ways and means committee,
which bag had the task of drafting the
tentative form of the new tariff mean
ore, has been unable to announce com
pletion of Its work in advance of the
extra session, but the probability Is
that the measure will be taken up
schedule by schedule.
The public has been led to expect
that after the tariff is disposed of con
gress will consider currency, the In
come tax. Philippine Independence and
the Panama tolls questions.
Much publicity has been given to the
proposed national Income tax. The tax
will probably apply only to Incomes of
i over $5,000 annually. Certain members
of congress hold that this sort of levy
would confined to but a compara
tively small proportion of the public
and that the revenue would not be suf
ficient. They argue that an Inheritance
tax should be added to Insure the need
ed revenue.
