WORK IN CONGRESS.

Crackers and kickers, in the
Democratic party are continuaily
bowling about what they term the
do-nothing" policy of the present
lower House of Congress. when there
is little or no ground for such com
plainings. The work of the House
Is far ahead of that Of the House OF
the last Congress at the same period.
For instance, it has already passed
three appropriation bills, the Urgent
Deficiency, the Military Academy
and the Indian and is making rapid
progress in the consideration OF the
fourth one. the District of Columbia
while the first appropriation bill
was not passed by the House OF the
last Congress until the 2lst OF March.
Besides this, the reporting OF three
tariff bills as early as the Sth OF
March is something unheard OF IN
Congressional history. In addition
to what has been done on the floor
of the House, is the hard work done
by the committees, which was never
further advanced at this period IN
any first session. TO give a clear
idea of how far this work is advanced,
Representative Catcmugs states that
If il were necessary every one of the
appropriation bills, except the gen
eral deficiency, which is necessarily
the last one taken up by the com
mittee, could be reported to the
House within week. Instead of
being slow, the majority of the House
have proven themselves hustlers,
when compared with their Republican
predecessors.

Gentlemen-Yourf favor commend
ing my action in the introduction of
bill ii. Il. 1929, for the free coinage
Of gold and silver, ETC., and II. X.
2G37, to lay a graduated income tax,
and II. Res. 80, proposing an amend
ment to the Constitution Of the
United States, requiring that the
Senators shall be elected by the peo-
pie, has been received. 1t is always
gratifying to know that my conduct
as a Representative is approved by
my constituents. | agree with you
in the opinion expressed that If the
measures should be enacted into
laws that the result would be benc-
fetal to our people. and because do
so believe have introduced them. ]
am no new convert to the principles
expressed in these bills. | have ia
yored and advocated them during my
service in Congress. They are an
expression of my own opinion, and !
am glad to know that these opinions
are held by me in common with the
great body of the Democratic party.
You ask me if the House should
treat these measures with contempt,
and refuse TO even consider them,
whether | would still have confidence
in the party as a relief party, etc. |
am glad to say in reply. that so far
from being treated with contempt,
they are all now being respectfully
considered. A bill, II. Il. 1926, for
the free coinage of gold and silver,
for the issue of coin notes, and for
other purposes, and joint resou-
ton. ii. Res. 90, providing for an
amendment to the Constitution re-
curing the States to elect their Sen
ators, have already been favorably
reported to the House. The propo-
sition for an income tax is being con
sidered by the Committee on Ways
and Means, in connection with other
measures looking to reduction of

"The Blood is the Life"

Runs the old saying, and everything
that ever makes part of any organ Of
the body must reach its place there
in through the blood. Therefore,
if the blood is purified and kept in
good condition by the use of Hood 5
Sarsaparilla, it necessarily follows
that the benefit of the medicine is
impaired to every organ of the body.
Can anything be simpler than the
method by which this excellent
medicine gives good health to all

The Fayetteville Sentinel, in an
article entitled: Two Views

to the past, and produces the follow
ing remarks uttered in a recent
speech before the Drummers' Assoc
citation in st. Louis by the broad
minded Governor Francis of Missou-

of Governor Francis, the Sentinel
quotes six lines from the letter OF

1t is remarkably strange to us why
some men who claim to be Free
Silver Democrats, persist in saying
that McRae made a mistake in vot-
ing against Mills for Speaker, when
it is now known that Mills had secret
ly pledged himself against silver be-
fore the Congress met. Ne, Mr..
McRae, made no mistake in this mat
ter, he was there, he found out what
was going on, and he voted for the
interest of the common people OF the
country as he always does. [Okolo-

THE REYNOLDS LETTER.

The PiCAYUNE Is an admirer OF
Gen. Reynolds, but it thinks he
made mistake in writing his letter to
Col. Met Jones, in which he attacked
Col. Fishback. The war Of seceS-
sion is over and dead issue, and
Col Fishback's loyalty to Democra-
CIV under all circumstances, and his
able work done for the party for over
twenty years past, entitle him not on
ly to respect and admiration, but to
political preferment. Below we give
a few press views, as to Gen. Rey-
nolds' letter:
The attack of Gen. ID. II. Rey
nolds on Col. W. NJ. Fishback fell
very Hat as it deserved to fall Col.
Fishback is not hurt by it and Gen.
REYNOLDS is very much reduced in
size. He will undoubtedly instruct

racy.- Fayetteville Democrat.
In brushing aside this very impor-
tant office thrust upon him by Col.
Jones, Gen. Reynolds essays to adj
wise Col. Jones who should and who
should not be elected, and though he
lacked the moral courage 20 name
the man for whom he whetted his
razor, his illusions, as could be east
" seen, were made to Col. Fishback.
1t was really dirty piece of work,
unwarranted on the part of the au-
thor and unmerited by Col. Fishback,
and while the latter will not be hurt
by it. Gen. Reynolds will not escape
his own boomerang Arkadelphia

The recent letter of Gen Reynolds
to Met l.. Jones, declining the gov
ernorshp reminds one of the old
story in the school readers about the
fox and the grapes. The General
does not want the grapes for the
reason that they are out Of his reach,
and he makes an unkind thrust at the
only man in the State in reach of the
prize. However, Gen. Reynolds is
