-A*-
Washington, D. O. Sept. 15.—
The intention of the Republi-
cans to force the “ rubber and
dark-lantern currency ” issue in
the Senate next winter is going
to precipitate the warmest tariff
debate that has been heard ia the
halls of the Congress since the
days of the Mills bill, back in
1888. The Republican leaders in
the Senate are going to have their
matches in that body whenThe
debate is opened, and they will
corn* from the younger ele-
ment in that oody, the State of
Texas stands at the head as the
best equipped State in the Union
in that regard. It is undoubtedly,
from the standpoint of Democra-
cy, tha ablest represented State
in the entire country in the per-
sons of tbs Hon. Charles A. Cul-
berson and tha Hon. Joseph W.
Bailey. They are both funder
forty five years of age, and both
have achieved notable distinction
in the political arena. Both have
had remarkable careers. They
have attained their present posi-
tions through the sheer force of
intellect and exquisite fitness for
the position, and not through the
power of money, as have the ma
jority of the men on the Republi-
can side of the Senate. Those
two men will take commanding
positions in the coming debate
for the reasons that their Democ-
racy is on straight and they have
the brains to back up their repu-
tations as Democrats. The so-
called leader of th'e Senate, Mr.
Gorman, will not shine in this de-
bate, for the very good reason
that his tariff coat has rents and
holes in it that will be plainly vis-
ible lo the naked eye when such
men as Aldrich and Spooner get
on his trail. His tariff record has
blow holea in it and he will be
compelled to take a back seat.
The real leaders in the next ses-
sion of the Senate will be Oalber-
son and Bailey of Texas, Carmack
of Tennessee, Patterson of Colo-
rado, and Money of Mississippi.
There is no better equipped man
in ihe Senate than Culberson. He
is essentially a lawyer, and it is
ihe questions of the law and the
Constitution that he prefers, but
he is perfectly at home in a tariff
debate. This is his first exper-
ience as a legislator, and he has
not been as ready to jump into
the arena of debate as has his
distinguished and brilliant col-
league, Mr. Bailey, who had ten
years’ experience in the House
before he came to the Senate.
Senator Gulbersdn’s past exper-
ience in public life has been cen-
fiued to the executive department
of governmental affairs as the
Attorney-General of Texas and
Governor of the same State. He
was twice nominated and elected
Attorney-General, and twice nom-
inated and elected Governor, and
elected without opposition, to the
United States Senate as a tribute
to his brilliant record iu the for-
mer offices he had held. As At-
torney-General of his State he
defended the State’s rights in a
suit before the United States Su-
preme Court, involving the valid-
ity to the title to Greer county,
Texas, and his speech in the case
before the Supreme Court was
so brilliant that it called forth the
encomiums of the most distin-
guished men of the bar in the
country. Chief Justice Fuller
told D. B. Culberson, the father
of the brilliant young Attorney-
General, that it was the finest ar-
gument he had ever listened to in
all his experience at the bar, and
praise from “Sir Hubert” was
praise indeed. His two terms as
Governor of Texas reached the
high water mark of statesmanship
and unanimous election to. the
J Senate was a foregone conclusion.
He is easily the leader of his
State, a State of strong and virile
men, and can stay in the Senate
as long as he desiree, and with
little or no opposition. His col-
league, Mr. Bailey, easily takes
rhitk as one of the best debaters
| in th? entire Congress of tho na-
tion. Hi9 specialty is the tariff,
having been on the Ways and
Means GoimniUee of the House
for ten years, and in defending
constitutional points. His brill-
iant .fight in the Senate during
the long session of the last Con-
gress to compel the President of
the Senate to restore the names
of Senators Tillman and McLaurin
of South Carolina, to the rolls of
’the Senate, from which they had
j been stricken after their fi*t fight

The Republican leaders are all
at sea and absolutely unable to
agree on what legislation is nec-
essary by the coming Congress.
President Roosevelt demands that
the Onban reciprocity treaty must
first be attended to, and says he
will call an extra session of Con
gress ftfr that purpose. The Re-
publican leaders in the Senate are
are all opposed to reciprocity leg-
islation, and Senators Aldrich,
Platt, Depew, Hanna, Quay and
Spooner have all advised him not
to call an extra session this fall,
and they are all oppbsed to his
policy. There is a like division
of sentiment on the necessity for
finaaeial legislation, and even
those who desire a change in the
law are hopelessly divided on the
scope of the alterations that should
be made.
