prevent the enactment of any legtsia-

their abiiity to accomplish what is
expected of them. The hoube will
doubtless pas* a bill in line with the
President’s recommendations without
undue loss of time, but when the sen-
ate is reached there will be a different
story to tell. The country is already
familiar with the manner in which a
small group of senators can block
th* will of th* majority. and they will
doubtless see a spectacle of this kind
during the coming congress which will
be unprecedented. A senator .who has
only’to go before his state legislature
once in six year* la much more Inde-
pendent than the representative who
has to run around in circles every two
year*, and the members of the upper
house who are expected to prevent ef-
fective rate legislation do not even
have to bother about the legislature*
which they may be said to carry
around in their vest pockets.

next summer. The outcome is uncer-
tain. of course, but the preponderance
of opinion is that the railroad influ-
ences in the senate will either prevent
the passage of a rate bil altogether
or compel the other side to accept a
more or less innocuous compromise.
The tariff will not figure at all if
the standpat element can have its
way, but, on the other hand, will be
a very live question if the Democrats
and the Republicans who favor revi-
sion can make it so. These latter are
by no means disposed to play the
tariff against the railroad rate mat-
ter, but they see no reason why two
reforms cannot be undertaken at the
same time, especilly since it'can be
conclusively demonstrated that the
tariff is wholly or very largely re-
sponsible for the continually increasing
cost of the necessities of life.
Will Press the Fight.
Senator Bailey in the senate and
Representative Williams in the house
will fight on this ground all during
the session, and, while they will not
have the venefit of the popularity of
the President or whatever virtue there
is in a clean-cut, decisive recommen-
dation in the executive message, there
is reason to hope that they will at
least be able, to advance ths cause of
revision a little farther than it has
ever gone before and thus pave the
way for the changes which must come
at some time in the not far distant
future. The general opinion is that,
in order to help certain Republican
candidates for congress next year the
President will send in a special mes-
sage on the tariff question some time
before the close of the sessipn whicl
commences day after tomorrow, but
that, of course, is a matter which
only the passage of time can posi-
tively determine. Certain it to. ac-
cording to those who make it a prac-
Clos to keep up wMh ouch matters, that

position to exert every one Qf his
forces. The injection of the tariff
issue, while yet the rate regulation
matter is up would tend to over-
shadow that reform, further split the
Republican party and
has been Raid. they will urge tariff re-
vision in season and out. without, how-
ever, doing anything to retard the
progress of the proposed rate legisla-
tion. As every intelligent man knows
this demand for rate reform was made
by the Democratic party as a party
and by Democrats as individuals years
before Mr. Roosevelt ever opened his
mouth about it. The Democrats are
just as much interested in the matter
as the President can possibly be, but
naturally they resent the attempt to
crowd everything else off the stage
and pay attention only to “the Presi-
dent’s” rate demands. It is bad
enough to have Mr. Roosevelt either
anxious or willing to take all the credit
for inaugurating a movement which
Democrats advocated as strongly as
a minority could advocate anything,
long before Mr. Roosevelt was even
thought of in connection with the
presidency; it is worse to have him
use that movement now to prevent ac-
tion on another Democratic reform,
as there is scarcely an article in com-
mon use which would not be cheaper
as -a result of general tariff revision.
So far as the rate matter is con-
cerned. interest just now is centered
in the recommendations which are to

the President will either ignore the
tariff entirely in the regular annual
message which will be read to the
two houses next Tuesday or refer to
It in a roundabout way. Recent inter,
esting developments, among which the
Whitney incident perhaps attracted
more attention than any other, have
shown conclusively that, despite the
fact that the President was once an
advocate of free trade and that for
some time past he has been supposed
to incline toward revision, he is now
on the fence, where he deems it safest,
apparently, to remain for an indefi-
nite period. Since under the present
circumstances one who is not for
tariff revision is against it, the Dem-
ocrats and the anti-standpat Repub-
licans expect no assistance whatever
from the President.
Reason Explained.
The reason for this attitude—or lack
of ene—on the part of the chief ex-
ecutive is easily explained. In order
to retain his already waning popu-
larity he must secure legislation cover-
ing every recommendation concerning
rates which to included in the message
to be made public next week, and he

CONVICTED OF CONSPIRACY.
Three Men Found Guilty of Attempt-
Ing to Drive Out Negroes.
Texarkana, Texas, Dec. 2.— (Spe-
cial.)—After being out for two days
the jury in the case of On Byrd, Ben
Burk. Arch Alien. Jim Willis and Win
McDonald, on trial for conspiracy, re-
turned a verdict of guilty in the case
of On Byrd. Ben Burk and Arch ANen,
while the others were discharged. The
maximum penalty for this offense in
the state of Arkansas is ten years"
imprisonment and $5,000 fine. Sen-
tence has not yet been passed.
The defendants were charged with
conspiring to drive away the negroes
from a sawmill near Stamps, Ark
some time ago. The charge included
the passing of threats, firing into the
negro cabins, , etc., and the ease was
heard in the federal court for ths
Western district of Arkapsas.
