It is the business Of q Legislative
body to legislate and not. to 'obstruct.
The senate seems to obstruct prima-
rily and legislste incidentally, and
when it doss leeislate to the extent of
passing bill. it passes one that every
senator knows will not be concurred
In by house or president. The discus
sion in the senate has been virtually
fruitleas so far as converts have been
made, and no records established.
And it's vote on the bill has about as
much significance as the action Of a
high school debating society to SIM
liar effect would have. The senators
are playing at statesmsnship and tri-

Pupils Recital

Last Thursday evening musical enter
tainment was given by the pupils of Mrs.
L. Harvey, at the residence of H. W. Stoll,
whose daughter, Miss Clara, took a prorni-
nent part, performing very intricate
piano solo. The event of the evening,
however, was the performance of Miss
Ruth Green, who rendered B minor con-
certo, by Hummei. The selection was
played in nine minutes, without a mistake,
which is something phenomenal. On ie-
quest Miss Green, with bandaged eye g,
performed the same piece over again in u
faultless manner, to the great delight cf
those present.
Miss Marie vorwerk rendered the
Awakening of the Lion, by De Kontski, in
an admirable manner, and was ably Sec
onded by her two pupils, Misses Lizzie
Boyd and Bessie Bryson. MIR. Floyd Green
also added greatly 10 the enjoyment of the
evening by his violin solos. The musicale
will long be remembered by those present
as one of the most enjoyable of the season

TIE house committee on foreign af-

report to the house, a resolution CEN
suring Ambassador Bayard for making
speeches on economic questions be-

on the Republican side of steel-riveted
psrtisans or six-penny politicians
either unwilling or unable to dis
tinguish between their own stump rot
and a philosophical discourse by a
statesman, therefore the kind of re-
port decided on is not particularly
surprising. But it should have oc-
