Debate on the Money Question To Be
Notable Feature of Coming Ses

By Jos: Ohl.
Washington, December 3.—(Special.)—ln a
few days the mission of those gentlemen
now so busily engaged in prognosticating
the president’s message will be at an end.
In less than a week the president will have
spoken for himself and the propin ts who
have so carefully prophesied all around the
question will, one and all, be proclaiming
"I told you so,” while the rival New I •->: k
papers will each devote an extra or two to
■bowing how it was the particular infill. m e
which brought forth the executive (hel.i'a
ions—no matter what they may be. Just
now the information is given out at the
whit, house that the president is still at
work on his message, and these statements
borne out by the testimony of <on
,u I >i il visitors who hate conferred witli
m- pi . nt upon features of that doeu

miin features have been determined upon

The Talk of a Split.
Among the prophets and prognosticators
meh attention has Ir n paid during the
.. -i few days to a disagreement between
■lm president aid his secretary of the
deasury which th y thought apparent.
This has been enlarged on and expanded
until it assumed the of a clash
wn.rii night lead to open rup
ture, and the possibilities as the
trsult of such a rupture have
b, a dilated on at the u-ual length.
When these Washington prophets get hold
of a good tiling they never let go until they
have played it to the limit.
So it lias Ik en with this particular story.
S> nie of the romancers, m order not to bo
outdone by their rivals, have gone so Jar
a.- to speculate on results in case Seen tary
Gage should resign, aS they have pictured
him doing, and there bas lx.*en another
rge crop of cabinet rumors in const -
•hi fact of the matter is that there has

tw < n the president and the secretary as to
the main purposes to be attained in their
idvoi icy of currency reform. There may
be. some slight differences of opinion as to
the details, tut it will lie nothing mor, than
that. In the main they agree, and the
recommendations of the. secretary of the
treasury, as fully outlined in The Constitu
tion a few days ago, will mark tin line on
which the administration will move in its
: I ” y leg,.- :alion. -

t here i.s little likelihood of the president

calling upon the president to transmit
to congress the instructions under which
Wolcott and 1:1s commission went abroad
to be dined, feted and thrown down, and all
documents bearing upon the visit of the
commission and its work. These resolutions
will come particularly from the silver men,
who want nothing better than to let the
public have the facts about this last bow
ing of the knee to Great Britain to get
her advice as to the financial policy of this
government. The request is one which the
executive is bound to grant and eventually
we will know all the facts.
While the silver men arc most active in
their determination to get at the facts, they
will have the support ot some of the ex
treme gold senators and representatives of
the president’s own party who want to
konw by wliat authority Senator Wolcott
declared to the French ambassador at the
conference in London that he and his as
sociates accepted the proposition for free
coinage of silver at tile ratio of I.JA to 1.
They Say It Was Unauthorized.
These gold men belong to the eastern
wing of the republican party and have al
ways been frank enough to say that the
St. Louis platform meant nothing but the
gold standard—that the republican faith
could be nothing else, and that all talk
about international bimetallism was mere
buncombe. They declare that AV oleott could
have had no authority for such a declara
tion, that the (lection of McKinley can
only mean one thing and that is tile gold
standard, and if the president authorized
any such declaration they want to know
it for future use. There are eastern sena
tors. who are disposed to crowd tile admin
istration to the wall on this matter and
they will aid in the adoption of resolutions
calling for all the facts about the commis
sion ,”.nd its visit.
Wliile ot course there can be no legisla
tion on the silver question at this session
of collgross there will almost certainly be
some most interesting and important de
velopments which w.ll have great bearing
upon the campaigns of the immediate lu
ture. Thos" senators and representatives
from we.su rn states who have all ine time
deeiared themselves "friends of silver" and
yet who helped cleet McKinley ir.- be

“This Country of Ours’’ Does Not Con-

TI o 1 ders —Annually Grows.
AV ashington, December 3.—(Special.)—
Benjamin Harrison wrote a very interest
ing book about "This Country of Ours,”
but lie did not toll the whole truth.
He ought to have stated the fact that
we have, had but few presidents and legis
lators honest enough to be courageous, or
courageous enough to be honest.
Benjamin Harrison has had bls career,
and he could have lost nothing by tolling
the whole truth. On the contrary, if the
full truth were told by such a man; by one
who lias been prominent in botli tlie legis
lative and executive branches of tin- gov
ernment it would have- had great weight
witli Hie people.
Tlie full truth aliout "This Country of
Ours” is that tlie people have almost no
voice in their own government; although
they think they are running it. Moreover,
inasmuch as thei government is in the
hands of tlie rich and tlie great, in tlie
pomp and Hie pride of their worldly estate,
the people are being robbed right and left,
and before their very eyes.
It was neither tlie Wilson bill, the Mc-
Kinley bill, nor th. Dingley bill that
brought about business conditions which
have made tlie common people suiter. True,
all national legislation Ims its effect upon
bus Hess, but there is nnieh baek of that.
lio you know of .’my busin. -s man in
mi? i lly 01 vill ig.’ wlio would pay a salary
of s2,c<i<i per annum to a bookkeeper wla-n
h( could ■■■ t ma u |>ei ’• et b ca pa hie to

work jm-t as well? Can you imnitine such
an absurdity eoiild exist?
Well, that is what "This C.iuntry ot
Ours” is doiio.’. ill the time. The peoii e
are b'.’ing overtax'd and ther. fore robbed
by reason of the fact that many of their
public servants are paid mere than double
what would be ne.-essary to pay for an
economical adrnlnisltation of federal af

At the first regular .-<s.-i >n of the forty

revision of the rules was brought in, pro
viding for the distribution of the various
appropriation bills to the several eommit
of the house of repn sentafives,
Sl>e,ik. r Sam J- Randail left the pr.sj.l

tide temporarily, the rascals, politicians
and lobbyists ultimately' triumphed, ami
at the beginning of tlie forty-ninth con
gress the rules were changed. Then tlie
treasury' fell into the hands of thieves
and roblxrs until Randall’s vision became
reality, ami ”we find the treausry bank
rupt.”
Congressman I’itney, of New Jersey, af
ter a careful examination of the condi
tion of affairs, briefly stated the case by
saving that during the hard times whZch
followed the panic of 1573, the democratic
party secured control of the house of rep
resentatives upon tlie cry of ‘‘retrench
ment and reform.” For some years there
after, expenditures were kept down to a
reasonable limit, under the sagacious lead
ership of Slim Randall. He was three
times chosen speaker, and for several con
gresses he was chairman of the committee
on appropriations, lie was one of tlie
greatest statesmen ever sent to the house
by file democratic party. He was a stead
fast economist, but lite b ader of a. wing
of tin* democratic party which believed
that a tariff should be levied not merely
“for rcveiiu ■ only.” but also to protect
American industries
In tlie forty-eighth congress Mr. Car
lisle was chosen speaker, and Colonel
Morrison, of Illinois, became notorious for
his peculiar project forth - horizontal re
duction of Hie tariff. Mr. Randall, as
chairman of tlie great committee on ap
propriations. led the d'-moeratic opposition
to the free trade majority, and join- d xvith
the republicans in defeating the Morrison
bill.
The Carlisle free traders determined, on
tlie assembling of the forty-ninth congress,
to “clip the wings of Sam Randall;” and
they proceeded to do so. and succeeded al
ter'a hard struggle. The eha.lrm.in of the
great committee on appropriations pos
sessed the power to block free trade leg
islation. They could not afford to take
the chairmanship from Randdl; but they
proceeded to divide his committee, and
parcel out the appropriation bills among
tlie other committees of the house oi rep
resentatives; and they' did so, by a revision
of the rules.
Tiny gave the army appropriation bill
and the military academy appropriation
bill to the committee on military affairs.
Tlie agricultural appropriation was given
to tlie commitee on agriculturw
The naval appropria.tion was given to
the committee on naval affairs.
Tlie Indian appropriation bill was given
to tlie committ'e on Indian affairs.
The diplomatic appropriation bill xvas
given to tii" committee on foreign af
fairs.
Tiie postoffice apliropriat ion was given
to the committee on postotlicos and post
road .

Washington, November 27.— (Special <’or

human race so is the division ol veg. table
physiology and pathology, of the depatt
ment of agriculture, to the. plant kingdom
of the universe. Here it is that the plant
life of tlie world is studied and experi

causes and cures of disc. ses p"Ctl>iar to
them; just as the human body i.s experi

in tiie study of tiie diseas'-s of man.
“This division is probably the largest or
ganization of its kind in tlie world d.'xo’.d
exclusively to the study of physiology
of plants ami other conditions of plant
life.” says Mr. Albert F. Wood, of that
division. “We have the main ialiora ory

include green m inure, crimson clover and

or weed tr.t.sii. These experiments haw
now been earned on for n year, and it is
planned to continue tlmm tor ten years
longer, so tiiat the trees will be grown and

of treatment.
"The greater portion of the most serious
diseases of the pear and peach trees, main
ly' throug’h the efforts of this division with
in the last ten years, have Ic -n
brought under control. That is
to say tiiat .some method of
treating tlm disease either by spraying
or cultural methods, or by pruning out tlm
diseased parts, has been discovered. We
have some line of treatment that can lie
applied at a reasonable expense, for nearly
all of t'hese diseases, ami If anybody Ims
the momy on hand Im "an grow these
trees reasonably free from disease.
"it should be noted tiiat tlm division of
vegetable physiology and pathology' for
several years past has !>• en making a large
number of experiments in the study of p" ii*
blight; tiie disease which is so destructive
to the pour, p.aeh, quince ..nd other fruit
i trees. This d s- use has be n investigated
: by two previous irixa stig;.ti.r.-, but the
I blight's live history was not work' d out
' until recently by a member of this division.
I The remedy is a very simple one, and purc

•ti .. ed fiart of the tree. But tl
fnl application of tim remedy, by cutting
