RICE B. HARMON. i J Politics in Washington. If the Senate had not adjourned when it did to wait for the extra session which, starts Aoril 7th, the people would have nothiug to talk about. As it is the White House is closed to all office seekers and those who are i hunting office will have to wait until Congress meets again before they ! have their ambitions gratified. Of 1 course, there will be many disappoint- 1 ments but the administration is pick- \ ing out the best men for the jobs and j will continue to do so from start to , finish. r The Senate cut out $10,000.00 worth < of patronage that the Republicans had y been giving their helpers and which j tne Democrats will haye to do without. ] At least they will have to for awhile because nearly all the positions with exception of a few policemen who : were cut out by the House over avear ago have been put back into position and there are as many drawing money from the House as there were under Republican administrations. The chances are that the 40,000 post offices will be put back and filled by Democrats, thus giving the Congressmenjsomething to do; otherwise, they will have nothing at all but their patronage in the House. The policy of Mr. Wilson in chopping down has been a Democratic policy for many years and will continue under all Demcratic Presidents, and you can bet when Wilson chop9 he I means to chop down?he does not mean to put back next year It remains to be seen yet whether or not he will put back the 40,000 post masters who were installed under the the civil service by President Taft. There are lots of places in the Senate that have not yet been filled but which will be filled shortly after that body convenes on the 7th'of April. The Democrats need not look for many appointments before the next session of Congress. There will only be appointed those people who are absolutely necessary to carry on the busi~ M*TTV*nioaolo on. I DOSS Ul tUO WJUUIIJ U u u TO uvsiuocatw ?f pointments will not be made nntil Congress meets and the Senate can take action on them in either with- \ holding its consent or not to the appointment made. ? The President is every day studying who is the best man for the position and the people of the country may be satisfied that the President has made up his mind after deliberate and ma- 1 ture consideration, but with Jbat kind i of President in the White House you may be sure that he will not in any way try to overstep the laws or try to do anything that is not in consonance with the habitual course of the Democratic party. The Democratic party is m eafe hands so long ai Woodrow Wilson is President of the United States. I do not know what is going to happen so far as Biyan and Wilson are concerned. I sincerely hope that they will go along for the four year9 in the same manner that chey have com> i! n il mi I UAL U VI I . ' I To the Ladies a I with us.
