CAPITAL, GOSSIP. [Special corrrespondent.] W ashington , November 26, 1895. While republicans at the capita confess to much surprise at the re sult of the late election, it was equally unexpected by democrats. It has been generally agreed that it would be a close contest, and there was nothing apparent to in dicate anything to the contrary. .Republicans are naturally disap-, pointed , but they are in no sense discouraged They leel that the party has done too m-ueh to ad vance all the best interests of the country to admit of its being per manently deprived of the control of the government. They are as ready to enter upon a vigorous and aggressive fight for the supre macy of their principles and can didates four years hence as they were after the defect of 1884, and they are equally confident that the government will be again turned over to them after a trial of one term of democratic rule. They point to the fact that the democracy has never carried out its platform and campaign pledges, and that the people have always been anxious for a change after the democrats have had a short lease of power in any branch of the government. There is perfect satisfaction among republicans that since the democrats have elected the presi dent, they have also secured con trol of both branches of congress, so that the entire responsibility for legislation will be theirs. A general feeling prevails that Mr. Cleveland and his party are going to have a very “ hard row to hoe.” They made during the campaign such sweeping promises of the re ductions of the tariff they would make, and prophesied such a marked improvement of condi tions as the result, that it is felt that it will be impossible for them to redeem their pledges. It is not believed that the coming short session of congress will attempt much legislation other than the passage of appropriation bills,and whatever is to be done with the tariff will, it is thought, be left to the democrats in the new congress just elected. There will be no river and harbor bill this year but money carrying on the contract work provided for at the last ses sion will have to be carried in the sundry civil bill, and there will be some large deficiencies to pro vide for. With the increased ex penditures absolutely necessary for pensions, and with the reve nues falling off because of an ex pectation that importations may be made at a better advantage after the next congress has had a whack at the tariff, it may be accepted as certain that the reve nues of the government in the next fiscal year, beginning the 1st of July next, will fall far short of * the expenses of the government. ThiSi together with the obligation 'y they are under ; to revise and-re duce the. tariff, and the demands, that will be made by certaiirdem ocrats for , financial legislation such as Mr.- Cleveland can not consistently approve,.promises to give his party a great deal of trouble and embarrassment when- the fifty-third congress meets. Whether the congress meets in special sessien soon after the close of the coming session of the old congress, of delays organization until the usual December meeting, there will be\ considerable delay in the formation of a tariff bill. The proposition to provide at. this session for a tariff commission to work out the problem before the meeting of the new congress is noc apt to find favor with many demo crats, their fear being that such a course would be construed to mean that they are not now ready and are afraid to tackle the.- tariff schedules about which they have been talking so much during the campaign. Republicans recog nize, however, that it is “ none of their funeral,” and can afford to laugh at the jierplexity of. their opponents over their newly-ac quired power. Free-Trade Facts. Mr. Adam Ooover, o f Warren township, came to South Bend, March 21, 1859, good old demo cratic free-trade times and bought the following articles: 5 pounds rope, 16 cents - $0.80 1 clothesline .33 £ gallon molasses ' - .31 £ pound wrought nails - .16 Total - - - $1.60 Mr. Cooyer brought with him ten dozen eggs, for which he re ceivcd accredit on his store account of eighty cents, or just one-half the amount of his bill. Mr. Coover is still ^ living in Warren township, reads the Tri- 3une and votes the republican icket. Had he come to South 3end, March 21,# 1892, and bought the same articles they would have cost $1.15 instead $1.60, and lie would have received for his ten dozen eggs $1.80 instead of eighty cents. In other words, instead of going home in debt eighty cents, he would have sixty-five cents to his credit.—South Bend, Ind., Tri bune.
