ington special says the Democratic men,
bers Of the House charge that the DEM
osrstic members Of the Senate are NO
better than the Republican members Of
the House. with this advantage ON the
side Of the Democratic Senators, that
they are covers for their Republican a.
sociates In the Committee Of Conferences
appointed To dispose Of the ~appropria-
ton hill. The party seems hopslsssly
divided on this important issue. and
when u surrender 10. made TO the Re
publicans II will DO glory enough
for that party to say that the
Democratic members Ct the Senate
rspudiatsi the action Of their
own partiIans. The House proposed.
to avoid this embarrassment, that the
joint resolution suggested by the Prssi-
dent should be passed, renewing all *
isting appropriation bills until the 18th
Of December. with the understanding
that II the Republican ticket 10 elected
the Senate bill shall pass, and II the
Democratic nominees are elected the
House bill shall be concurrsd In by the
Senate. The proposition Is novel one.
yet prominent Democrats Of the House
seem to prefer this plan TO . dead lock
and no hope Of escape thsrsirom. All
salaries are TO be paid as now provided
for, but 10 Be raadjustsd nszt December
II the bills apprcpriating lesser amounts
should become law.
