obedience to the bishops orders, and that he
will not come back to Biddeford unless to
get his own property, as he only carried

The Calendar of the House Cleared
of Important Measures.
Promises Fulfilled In the Face Of
Determined Opposition.
Tariff Bill In the senate-o ther Wash

[Snecial To the Press.l


WASHINGTON, July 25.-The close of this
week sees the calendar Of the House cleared
of all the great and necessary measures
which the Republicans Of the country dele
gated to this Congress to do. The Demo-
Gratis boasted that public business should
not 60 on. They declared that no tariff bill
should be passed and that the Republican
party should be blockaded at every point
Yet at this date the House of Representa-
tives had done its work on all these measures.
The tariff bill ll,pension bill, silver bill, federal
election bill, 'original package" bill, bank
ruptcy bill. tie bill to relieve the Supreme
Court, the land forfeiture bill, restoring to
settlers millions of acres, and twelve of the
thirteen great appropriation bills, besides
the thirteen contested election cases. have
been decided and the copyright bill has been
considered though not passed. Considering
that the Democrats have obstructed at every
turn, this Is great record, q record without
a parallel in the history OF recent Congresses.
This record has been made not by unseemly
hurrying of legislation but by constant and
continued vigilance and work. Some Of these
measures have passed the Senate and mostly
all of the Others will probably pass this ses-
sion or next.

How long this will take is uncertain, but +,
is thought that it will be finished in time to
take up and pass the federal election bill be-
fore adjournment. The Democrats have
freely predicted that the federal election bill
will not pass as they predicted that there
would be no tariff bill. Republicans here
think the one prophecy is of as much value
as the other was.
