A Costly Congress,

Despite the efforts of Speaker Tom
Reed and Others to make it appear
that the present Congress is an eco
nomical one, facts are coming to light
which show that it is going to be an
other billion dollar Congress.
Representative Cannon said in the
House Monday that the aggregate ap-
preparations during this session would
be about $500, 10000 This is the
record to be made, according to the
Chairman of the Committee on Ap-
preparations, In the first session, when
in view of the Presidential election,
everything is being cut down to the
lowest, and in many instances only
sufficient is being appropriated to
carry on the work of the government
for eight months, instead of for the
full twelve.
What the figures will be for the
next session when the election is over
and the brakes are taken off, and
when provision will have to be made
for sixteen months instead of twelve,
no one can foretell, but the prospects
are that they will bring the total for
the two sessions up to such a figure
as to make the appropriations of the
first billion dollar Congress seem eco
nomical by comparison.
Chairman Cannon frankly declared
that the appropriations for all contract
work on rivers and harbors, and on
public buildings were only intended to
meet expenditures until March 4th of
the next year, when the next session
of Congress would expire, and by
which date the next Sundry Civil bill
would become law. He contended
that this was the proper and logical
way in which to make appropriations
of this character.
Representative Mcmillan pointed
out that this did not, in fact, diminish
appropriations, but only seemed to do
so, IN order to make a record for the
Republican Congress to bridge it over
until after the Presidential election.

Women to Get Even.
Will Have introduced Bill BY Which Men
Are to be Snubbed.

Several prominent women Of Cincinnati
have decided upon plan of ''getting even"
for the passage of the "Fosdick anti-hgh
hat BILL" One of them said: "We will
avenge ourselves by introducing bill in the
Ohio legislature by which the men will be
subjected to as big snub as the women were.
The bill will be drawn up in few days, with
the same provisions and fines to be inflicted
upon theatre goers and managers as provided
for in the Fosdick bill for each person found
leaving his seat during an intermission at the
theatre or found spitting tobacco juice on
the floor. l don't know that 1t will be pass
ed, but nevertheless it will be introduced"
