a member writing to his constituents
and this Gratilics his vanity.
at o'clock the pages of the House
are required to be present. They place
the records upon the file of each repre-
sentative, and see that the inkstands are
filled. This is done under the super-
vision Of the chief page. At 10 o'clock
there Is a roll call of the pages in the

Meantime members OF the House be-
Sin to appear. They hang their hats
and ovcrcoats in the cloak room, and
desks. Some bring their secretaries and
dictate replies These are usually mem

are never interrupted by visits from
constituents. Representatives from

This request is usually promptly heed

Washington. d. c., April "a.
The House OF Representative seems
70 nave peculiar charm for visitors to
the National Capitol. The reason is
clear. The Senate chamber is always
he!d sacred from their intrusion. The
hall OF the House. however, Is ever open
10 them when the House Is not in Sos
sion. They tread It's aisles early and
late, studying It's decorations and paint
lngs and eagerly scanning the names OF
the members inserted in the desks La
dies frequently mount the rostrum and
place themselves IN the Speakers chair
1t Is an honor eagerly sought when the
House is not in session 4 DESCRIPTION

morn until nightfail Will! interest all who
have visited the south wing OF the Capi-
tol.
The doors Of the hall are thrown open
at O'Clock every morning by John T.
Chahcey. he Is Republican, who has
!. been special cmploEc OF the House tor
nearly thirty-five years. Mr.. Chanccy is
suave and Gentlemanly and extremely
popular.
CROWD COMES EARLY.
AS soon as the doors are opened WISH
tors enter the chamber. Some Of tGarn
are regular habitutes. They march in
the a!sles, occupying the chair OF some
member, and read the Congressional
Record. which is always placed on files
beneath the desks. There Is a peculiar
satisfaction upon their faces as they loll
in the easy chairs and assume the airs
Of statesmen. Indeed, one of them,
whom the employees facetiously call "thc
Jack Of clubs" chided guide the other
day because he did not point him out to
visitors as one Of the members OF the
House.

The question that puzzles not
few people is this, to-wit: How is
prosperity to be restored, and how
is the country to be enriched, by
policy that is intended to take
$Ico, 900, 900 more each year from
the people, and thus give the treas
ury what is called ample revenue, !"
to be paid out to office-holders, pap
suckers and crib-feeders at the
treasury?-Oregonian.

Gov. Lord has forwarded a new
certificate of appointment to H. w.
Corbett, at Washington. 1t seems
as though the one the governor
carried so carefully to Portland and
delivered in person was defective,
inasmuch as it did not state that the
appointment only held until the
Legislature met. Therefore a rew
certificate was forwarded at once.
Gov. Lord trusted this one to the
mails.

Since the change of the admins
tration over 10000 applications for
postoffices have been filed at the
postoffice department. Up to the
close of business last Saturday, the
appointment division of the interior
department has recorded 1000 ap-
plications for presidential positions
under the interior department.

attendance at school and give direc-
ton to the board of school directors
in regard to the matter of school
attendance.
Bring this law before the people,
acquaint them with its requirements
and penalties, and it is believed
there will not be so many children
of the age included by the law, who
do not and will not attend the
public school. The state does not
get near the value it deserves for
support of the common schools,
because of the fact that so many do
not avail themselves of the privilege.
The state cannot afford to allow
this neglect and indifference of the
public schools to exist, but must, in
some way, see that the children
have some education.

There can be no permanence in
schedule of excessive tariff duties.
When duties are high, special in
terests are favored, at the cost of
the general consumers, and the
policy never will be tolerated long.
Only moderate tariff can be a
permanent tariff.-Oregonian.

Governor Lord has given his
message that he prepared and
never delivered last winter to the
public. The message is very long,
but outside of that it is only ordi-
nary. 1t is devoid of any practical
suggestions as to needed reforms.
Some of his suggestions to the leg
islature is amusing, as viewed in
light of the expensive holdup of
that body last winter.
