no doubt fair representatives OF this
characteristic spirit Of economy,
object to a $4,000 poor-house. 1t
does seem little high. They further
discovered in their audit little
matter Of $40. so which the inspectors
claim to have spent for cigars while
inspecting things. They go farther
than this and even object to the
S54 90 for car fare for the inspectors,
just as though the poor fellows could
walk or hire their own conveyance.
In nosing around like that of course
auditors are apt to find things that
look wasteful at first glance if not at
second. Accordingly they further
discovered and objected to $II8S3

Ais Well That Ends Well.

The contrast between the punctu.
ality of the action of the House and
the dilatoriness Of the Senate we have
often remarked and commented upon
during the dragging along of the tariff
bill. We have felt somewhat lonely in
our weak effort to paint pen pictures
OF the contrast. Senator Hill now gives
us tremendous boost along this very
train of thought, though we might pre-
fer it from some one else in whom we
have more confidence. His remarks,
explanatory OF Senatorial indifference
concerning the will of the people as
expressed at the polls, most fully illus
trate the point. His condemnation of
the Senate's indifference fell from him
in the warmth of debate and in the
height of a peculiarly unique emergen-
cy, just such as draws out the exact
and unvarnished truth sometimes
where it is usually wont to be hidden.
But reformation such as he sug
gests-the election Of Senators by di-
rect vote Of the people--though pop.
ular, would still be both questionable
and difficult /; II being only possible to
bring it about by slow process of Con-
stitutional amendment and in the face
of much opposition from those who
believe it hard to improve upon the
kind of government the founders gave
us. 1t is barely possible of course, that
the founders never dreamed of a Sen
ate full of millionaires involved and
interested in all manner of CONNER
cial and financial schemes, and there
fore not likely to be impartial or fair
in the enactment of laws for the
masses as against the classes. Recent
experience demonstrates Senatorial
trickery that is just simply intolerable,
and only because, as we verify, Of the
personal interest they have in the
outcome of the tariff bill. On the
question of making them amenable to
the sovereign power directly, it will
afford US get pleasure to vote for it at
every opportunity, being fully satisfied
that they have far too long abused
their trust, no matter what the founders
contemplated in their case.
The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1894-07-27
Rapid Legislation on Regular Appro-
priation Bills,

However dilatory Congress may
have been in passing the tariff bill
(Which is still hanging fire. nothing of
this kind will be charged against them
so far as the regular appropriation
bills are concerned. Three of the
more important regular appropriation
bills passed the Senate in one day,
namely, the Diplomatic and Consular
the Invalid Pension and the Military
Academy. They likely involve more
money than all the other bills thrown
together. This speedy action, which
is never the best for righteous legisla-
tion, indicates that our lawmakers
are getting anxious to quit for this
session. They have had enough of it.
No doubt many of them would have
been more likely to return to Con-
gress if they had managed to pass the
tariff bill with its essential features
still adhering, and then spent some
time and consideration upon the regu-
lar appropriation bills. But the differ
ence is, the regular appropriation bills
affect no class IN particular, but every
body in general, while the tariff bill
affects a very particular and very
powerful class of our fellow citizens.
A class that has heretofore been in
the habit of shaping legislation to
suit themselves nor are they willing
to surrender their prestige or inhu-
ence until driven to it. This has been
the cause OF delayed tariff legislation,
and this alone. Whenever Congress
can rise superior to this particular
class tariff legislation can be enacted
as speedily, as Justly and as equitably
as any other legislation. 1t is not
likely Congress will be in session a
single week after this all-important
tariff question is somehow disposed of.
1t is still in compromising conferences
between the House and Senate and
will likely be stripped of its more
essential features at every turn until
when finally passed to the President
for signature its highly protective
qualities will still continue to protect
the few as against the many unpro-
tected.
