made chairman of the important COM
mittee on pensions. As chairman of
that committee during the past six
years he has introduced and reported
hundreds of bills for the relief Of the
veterans of the late war and is the
author of what is known as the DISABLE
~ Pension act, which was reported
from tho committee on pensions by SEN
ator Davis and advocated by him on the
door Of the Senate, and which, after
passing both houses of congress, was
vetoed by President Cleveland.
Senator Davis reintroduced this
act after the Inauguration of
President Harrison and it again passed
both houses of congress, was signed by
the president and is now law.
During the past year over forty mill
ions of dollars have been disbursed
under this act to the old soldiers
Probably the work with which Sena-
Tor Davis has been most prominently
identified in the minds Of his constitu-
o,.nts is what is known as the 500 Canal
, bill, being an act introduced by him and
which he succeeded in having enacted
into law, which provided for now
, canal at the 500, allowing the passage
of vessels Of much greater tonnage than
had heretofore been possible, the result
>af which will be to reduce in very
marked degree the cost of having the
products of our western farms shipped
to the markets of the world, thus en-
HANGING in value every bushel of wheat
raised in the northwest. This bill Sena-
tor Davis supported in the senate in a
speech of remarkable power and ability.
Senator Davis has been prominently
identified with many other measures for
the benefit Of his constituency during the
term of his Office, notably the
sact introduced by him and adopt
I'D as a part Of tho Mckinley bill
as the result of which the tariff
on binding Irvine used by the farmers of
this state has been reduced from Q Ia
