the same, too."
"Why are you looking so worried,
then?" queried the reporter.
Because all the Weather sharps are

Majority of New House of Rep-1

Tariff Revision. j
PRINCETON, N. J.. Nov. 11.—That
he has finally decided to call an extra
session of congress to take up the
promise of tariff revision after he takes
his seat on March 4 was indicated by
President-elect Wilson today. How
ever, the governor proposes' to continue
the attitude of a listener for a few days
more at least, though it will not be sur
prising if the governor announced hla
determination to call an extra session
before leaving for his vacation Satur
day.
When the question of an extra ses
sion was put to the governor he re
marketß-
“The consensus of opinion in favor of
an extra session is very interesting in
deed. I have been much impressed by
it. I have heard very little opposition
to the extra session. The demand for
an extra session appears to be nation
wide. I had fully intended not to an
nounce what I propose to do in regard
to calling an extra session until I got
back from my vacation, but T may havu
to do so earlier. However. I want to
hear more expressions on the subject*
It is known that during the past few
days the governor has received many
letters and telegrams from leading
Democrats throughout the country urg
ing him to announce his decision at
once.
House Members
Map Program
WASHINGTON. Nov. 11.—A poll o»
Democratic members of the new house
of representatives shows a. decided
majority tn favor of calling an ex
tra session of congress to revise the
tariff.
Leaders of the party now in Wash
ington declared today that this un
doubtedly would have great weight
with President-elect Wilson, who has
stated that he is in a '’listening” at
titude. The call for tariff revision,
they say. will go forth as soon as
Mr. Wilson assumes office.
So sure are they of this that a
definite program has been mapped
out;
1— Revision downward of the
Payne-Aldrich tariff bill, which was
one of the great issues in the pre
election campaign.
2 The continuance of Champ
Clark as speaker of the house.
3 The continuation of Oscar W.
Underwood, majority' leader of the
house.
Plans Forming
For Party Control.
Following the assurance that the
Democrats will control the senate for
the purpose of legislation and the pros
ecution of ordinary partisan legisla
tion, lines are already being laid for
control within the party. This fore
shadows a sharp struggle between the
so-called progressive element of the
party for the control of committee ma
chinery of the upper house.
Rumors of the Impending clash
based upon sentiments privately ex
pressed by the progressive Democrats
were supp rted by the arrival in
Washington of W’illiam Jennings
Bryan and the announcement that
Colonel Bryan would remain here prob,
ably a week. Colonel Bryan inspir
ed and directed the organisation of the
Democratic progressive senators at the
beginning of the present congress into
a combination opposing the election of
Senator Martin, of Virginia, as minor
ity leader.
Congress, aftej March 4, will be dom
inated by progressives Democratic in
fluence, in the opinion of Mr. Bryan,
who is in Washington on his way to
Florids with Mrs Bryan. The Com
moner, however, declined to give an
opinion on the extra session question or
to say whether he will accept or reject
a place In Frvsident-elect Wilson's cab
inet.
