II consider the Fifty.th congress
the most atupid failure in the history of
the nation. Not a single act of public
benefit was passed"
What is your opinion of the new

proceedings were 80 scandaloue that |

the complete surrender OF the Demo-
crats to q handful OF men. There were
38 northern and southern Democrats in
favor OF what has always been advo-
Gated by the Democratic party, but
there were six eastern men, who call
themselves Democrats but are really
publicane, who control the majority
in the senate.
''At no time could they get a ma iority
to support the proposed measure with
out caucus, 80 they held caucus and
gave instructions to have bill prepared
which would be satisfactory.
"Then the sugar trust came in with a
demand that the sugar schedule be
changed. and the six men stood out and
said, we will have this bill or nothing. ,
And then came the surrender. How
humiliating to see large body of men
lay down their arms before half

"Why did you vote to put duty on
salt ?" asked the reporter.
II voted for duty on both salt and
wool, though am really in favor OF both
free salt and wool. l discoversd that
the tariff legislation meant legislation in
favor OF class in this, and the revenue
feature was completely lost sight
OF. | showed the senate that oil
our Kansas salt-makers wanted was to
retain their territory-that is that some
duty be tus on salt so that the area they
supply might net be encroacbed upon
by foreign salt. l favored q duty on
wool, because the bill propoeed putting
duty on wooden goods, and wanted
the Kansas farmers who raise the wool
to be treated as we'll as the manufac-
turers.
This whole thing was grab ga me,
and simply did my best to see that the
Kansas people were treated as we'll as
