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.

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.

It means j 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.

BEN HARRISON’S BOOK SCORED Nothing but Misleading Statements in the Publication. WHERE IT WORKS AN INJURY “This Country of Ours’’ Does Not Con- tain Much Truth. ABOUT THE PEOPLE'S MONEY. Over One Hundred Million Dollars Paid Annually to Fe ’era! Office- 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 perform tlie work for 1" i annum? 1.. there a bit.- iness man in any city or vill i.’.- who won il pay an annua! -alary ot S’S,H|HI for t'.e services of n m: n wi. i weal I be wi.ling to work tor ?2.’’*! ;| and do the 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 fa ’.rs.

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.

Washington, November 27.— (Special <’or respondence.)—'What a hospital is to th" 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.
