COXGRF.SS IX EXTRA SESSION.
Tbe extra session of CoDgress met
St noon Monday, but adjourned
bout as quickly. Speaker Crisp wag
re-elected, and the minor officers
nominated by the Democratic caucus
were also elected and properly install
ed. In the Senate about the same
routine was gone through, and then
the whole shooting match adjourned
till Tuesday noon, without the read
ing of the President's message.
From scurces believed to be well in
formed it is learned tbat the message
will not be more than a column and
a half in length and that it will re
commend the unconditional repeal of
the Sherman act.
Pro-silver Democrats express them
selves as agreeably burprised at what
they understand to be the moderation
of the president's recommendations.
They are informed that he recom
mends the unconditional repeal of tfie
Sherman act. lie, however, recog
nizes that silver is one of the niouey
metals of this country which must be
maotained, but points out that with
the present attitude of European
countries the proper ratio between
gold and silver cannot be mantaiued
by this country alone. Therefore, he
does not favor the coinage of silver
under present conditions except for
subsidiary purposes. He thinks the
European nations who are now de
pressing the price of silver can by the
suspension of its coinage in this coun
try, except for subsidiary purposes,
be coerced into an international
agreement more favorable than we
have heretofore bad. He is in favor
of silver on a parity with gold, and
stands by the platform of 1892, but
says that the platform caunot be car
ried out for the reason that a parity
canuot be mantained. Prominent
leaders of both wings of the Demo
cratic party have had conveyed to
them tbe impression that these are
substantially the views the president
will express.
Hon. C. W. Stone' Record.
The Washington correspondent of
the Philadelphia Time says: Con
gressman Charles W. Stone, of the
Tweuty-seveuih district, in the last
Congress was given one of the mi
nority places on tho Committee of
Coinage, Weights and Measures.
This Committee, being the one which
had charge of all legislation in rela
tion to free coinage, Mr. Stone al
once took hold of that subject in ear
nest, and soon developed into one of
tbe ablest advocates of the gold
standard in the house. His speech
against the Bland free coinage bill
last July was a splendid effort and at
tracted attention to Mr. Stone from
all over the country. Before the
close of the sessiou he easily ranked
as the ablest opponent of free coinage
on that Committee. Then during the
closing days of the Congress Mr.
Stone tecured the passage, almost un
aided, of the bill authorizing a stand
ard gauge for 6heet and plate iron
and steel. Mr. Stoue will undoubt
edly be re-appointed to thisCmmittee
and also to the minor Committee of
Expenditures in the Slate Depart
ment. News from Washington indicate
that the Republicans propose to make
Hie ngbt for tariff along the lines
suggested by the Telegraph some time
ago. The Telegraph theu advised
Southern methods of fighting the free
traders, and if these methods are
adopted and persisted in, there will
be no Auti American, Pro-British,
Free Trade legislation in this Con
gress. The protection policy of the
Iiepublicao party gave the country
thirty years of unparalleled prosper
ity. The fear that tbe Democrats
will force upon the coumry their pol
icy has already made 100,000 work
iogmen idle, closed banks, shut up
shops. Against further destruction
along this line, the Republicans in
Congress have a right to fight with
every weapon they can cominaud.
And we hope they will so fight.

cian and a KUlllful Org-antEer.
Frank Willing Loach, who since 1SSS has
been aecretary of the Republican state
committee, has determined to be relieved
Of the responsibilities of that position. He
has announced that owing to the condi
tion of his health he will not be a candi
date for re-election to the secretaryship
under any circumstances. The retirement
of Mr. Irfach from this important role
will be felt by the Republican organization
throughout the state. He has long been
In touch with the active party men in
every county In the commonwealth, and
much of the responsibility of the direc
tion of party, affairs has fallen upon his
shoulders.
Upon the advice of his physician iur.

succumbed to the strain upon hit overtaxed
FRANK WIIXIKO LEACII.
system. He attempted more than he was
physically able to endure. lie has not
been la good health since he broke down
In the campaign of 1SSU. During this
canvass he not only satisfactorily filled
the position of real estate deputy to the
sheriff of Philadelphia, but, besides per
forming the exacting work of the secre
taryship of the Republican state commit
tee, he acted as assistant secretary of the
Republican national committee. Fre
quently he was In his office until long after
midnight engaged with a stenographer on
correspondence covering every atata in the
union. Owing to the condition of his
he< h Mr. Leach wanted to retire last year.
General Reeder was unwilling to accept
the chairmanship, however, unless Mr.
Leach became his chief of staff.
Reeder's Splendid Trlbnta.
"I recognize in Mr. Leach one particu
larly well qualified for the position," said
General Reeder in announcing his appoint
ment. "In fact," he added, "I do not
know another man in the whole state who
is as well fitted to look after the import
ant detail work of the secretaryship. He
has had long experience in this particular
field, and I have a very high oplnlon-of his
ability and aptitude for the trying and re
sponsible duties of the position."
Many of the most influential Republican
newspapers in the state gave flattering
editoral commendation of Mr. Leach's
party services in approving his reappoint
ment to the secretaryship at that time.
The last campaign was particularly trying
upon Secretary Leach, owing to tbe addi
tional work incident to the introduction of
the new ballot law.
Where Detail Work Counted.
While Mr. Leach has been secretary of
the state committee since 1S85, part of that
time be was not actively eugnged on tbe
routine duties of that office. Although
still holding the position of secretary dur
ing the state campaigns of 1SS8 and 1890,
Mr. Leach was devoting uearly all his
time to the work of assistant secretary of
the Republican national committee In
the Delamater campaign, but a month
before the election, he returned to Phila
delphia, and at his suggestion the city
committee, of which he was a member,
organized a special canvass of the Third
Congressional district, with Mr. Leach as
chairman of tbe committee In charge of
the party organization. Tbe Republican
forces made a masterly battle and re
duced the Democratic majority lu this dis
trict by about 5.000 votes.
Ferilou Work In lb Month.
In the national campaign of 18S8 Chair
man Quay assigned Mr Ltacb to so im
portant and perilous ranvass of North
Carolina. Mr. Leach took entire chargaot
the Republican campaign Id that state.
He made an effective still bunt. His mis
sion was only discovered a few days before
tbe election. Although bis llfewasthreac
ened be held his ground until tbe close of
the polls. He perfected an organization
such as had never been known In any
southern state before Mr Leach bad the
satisfaction of knowing tbat, though the
suite wus lost, three Republican congress
men were elected, which mally saved the
house of the Fifty-first congress to the Re
publican party, fur, despite the Democratic
wholesale counting in tactics, the Repub
licans secured the bouse by a majority of
three. Chairman Eaves, of the North
Carolina Republican state committee, in a
cordial letter assured Mr. Leach tbat with
out bis help be doubted if one of the three
Republican cougressiucu could bav been
elected.
A Tactician and Org-anliar.
Although be must relinquish the details
of organization work for a time Mr. Leach
proposes to coutiuue an active interest and
participation in state politics. He expects
to be utile to attend the coming state con
convention, to which be is a delegate. At
secretary of the Philadelphia delegation,
and of the committee having Judge Fell's
canvass for the supreme bench in charge,
Mr. Leach has a particular iuterest In the
gathering at Harrislmrg on Aug 00.
There is no doubt tbat it will be difficult
to find a man as capable as Mr. Leach for
the secretaryship of the btale committee.
At best it is a thankless task, there being
no salary attached to the office, and the
onerous duties and great responsibilities
of the position are seldom appreciated.
Mr. Leuch is admittedly one of tbe cleverest
tacticians and most skillful organizers ill
the slate.
When the fact that Secretary Car
lisle had consulted with Tammany
leaders iu New York became kuown,
public confidence was at once restor
ed. As Artetuua Ward would say,
this is "Barkaeum."
The fear of free trado is the cause
of the business depression. The Sher
man act is ouly a tributary incident.
Make a note of that.
An exchange puts it: Cleveland,
the Change, Calamity, Collapse.
Fakmkr wore promised 81.23 for
wheat by the Frce-Tradp fcout' who
were vote hunting in November, 1802,
but wc hoar nothing about the price
of wheat now since it has dropped to
561 cents at Chicago. This is part of
the kindergarten "object lesson" from
teacher Cleveland. It may he a hard
lesson to learn, but then the farmers
are likely to remember it in lf96.
