A WELL .EARNED TRIBUTE.
It will be remembered under what cir
cumstances the new speaker of the house
conducted his work during the session of
the Fifty-first congress. The minority
leaders at that timo placed their depend
ence upon the lino of parliamentary tac
tics to defeat any tariff legislation, and,
In fact, prevent the passage of ny meas
ure of a partisan character by that con
gress. At the beginning of the session
they were confident of success. By that
It will be understood that they sot out
with deliberation and determination to
prevent the transaction of business by a
legally elected majority of congress.
That they did not succeed in their revo-
lutlonary attempt was chiefly due to the
fact that a man sat in the speaker's chair
who was absolutely clear In his own mind
that the men to whom the people had
relegated the duty and responsibility of
legislation could not sit In their seats and
evade the duty or shirk the responsibil
ity. He was not only sure of this, but
Bure as well that the power resided In
the house to Include for the purpose of
legislation all the members of that body
who were both visible and audible, and
count them as present, even though upon
palpably false pretenses they undertook
the silly paradox of rising in their places
and denying that they were there. His
was the straightforward common-sense to
treat naked falsehood with tho simple
contempt it deserved, w thout much waste
of time or words upon technicalities or
subterfuges which made no pretense of
concealment and never rose to tho dignity
of a disguise. Under his rulings there
were angry debates and stormy episodes.
The minority protested and raved, and
the Dcmocratlo press of the country
could hardly find terms sufficiently de
nunciatory and abusive with which to
characterize his discharge of the duties
of presiding officer of the house. With
absolute imperturbability and perfect
good nature he pursued the course he had
marked out for himself and for congress,
That was a congress elected to do busi
ness, and It did it. Old It because it
was guided by a man who had, with the
courage of his convictions, steadfastness
and patience, and a conscientious pur
pose to execute the popular. will.
Then for four years succeeded that
ftratige period of political madness and
Imbecility which gave us the Waltes,
Lewolllngt. Pennoyers and Altgelds -as
governors, the long-bearded and long
winded Populists In congress, the unique
second Cleveland administration, tho
paralysis of business by Debs, the march
of the Coxey army on congress to be ar
rested for not keeping off the grass, the
two CrlBp congresses, with tho wonderful
Wilson tariff and the abortive Income
tax; the financial panic, commercial dis
tress and business depression, and finally
the general breaking up of the Demo
cratic party. The period ended with the
election of the congress which assembled
last Monday. And then, at a beginning
of a new era of genuine statesmanship
and saving common-seiiBe, the country
wltnesaeil ono of the revenges brought In
by tho whirligig of timo, when the repre
sentatives of the largest Republican ma-
jorlly In congress for many years mot
and by a unanimous vote, fitly voicing
the will of a unanimous party, choso for
Its presiding officer the man who four
years ago was the best-abused Repub
lican of his time for doing with courage,
steadfastness and patience his slmpl
duty. And when on Monday Thomas B,
Reed took the gavel In his hand It slg-
nifled, over and above all personal or
party considerations, that the American
people honor courage and common-sense,
tnilrt", with such care and thouKlitfulneis
an should bo given to a measure expected
to stand without change for years; would
probably take more time than congress
can give to It at this session. A much
briefer bill, avowedly for preeout relief
and not designed as a permanent settle
ment, wttuld Berve eqjally woll to test the
president's willingness to obey tho man
data of the peoplo expressed in the elec
tions ot last year and this year, and it
ought to bo possible to pass
some such bill without delay. Those
who have followed the comparisons of
Imports and revenue for the last few
months will realize that It might not be
necessary to alter duties on a great num
ber of articles to raise a sufficient
revenue.
The Astorlan wants a man of honesty,
Intelligence and education to be at the
head of our municipal government, and In
Mr. Frank J. Taylor we have recognized
these qualifications. Besides this, the fact
that he Is a sterling Republican, an ack
nowledged legal authority and an inde
pendent thinker are In our eyes additional
and substantial reasons why he should be
elected, If, in our advocacy of the elec
tion of Mr. Taylor, Dr. Kinney suffers by
comparison, that Is Dr. Kinney's misfor
tune, not the Astorlan's fault
It was openly stated on the streets of
this city yesterday that Mayor Kinney,
while chairman of the Subsidy Committee,
made proposals to certain railroad pro
moters, for payment to him for his ser
vices, several thousand dollars, and the
restoration to him of the lots he gave to
the subsidy. We sincerely trust this Is
not true. For the honor of the city, and
the people who elected Mayor Kinney to
the high office ho occupies, we hope he
will be able to refute this ugly rumor.
Since the publication of unquestioned
and excellent testimonials concerning the
legal ability and Integrity of Mr. George
Johnson, Independent candidate for city
attorney, the lies concerning that gentle
man's standing, so Industriously circu
lated by his opponent, have been very
effectually squelched.
Mr. C. J. Curtis, howler In Democratic
processions and Republican nominee for
city attorney, has deliberately and pub
licly announced his Intention of knifing
the head of the Republican ticket and
the candidate on that ticket who is run
ning for the position of auditor and police
judge.
