A Just Compliment to the
Frederick County Dele
cation.

AS the twenty.eight represen.
tatives from Frederick filed into
Ford'S Opera House to attend the
Democratic State Convention. on
Tuesday last, a general murmur
of applause could be heard
throughout the hall. Seldom has
a better or more solid looking set
of men ever attended conven
ton in this State than those from
this county at the late State Con.
ventiOn. They were the men
known and respected in their re.
Spective sections, many of them
owning thousands of the broad
acres which has made this county
famous throughout the Union.
AS long as the Democratic organ
ization entrusis its political
affairs in the hands of such men
so long will the people uphold
them and sanction the leadership
which demands such representa-
ton.

Since this pest was discovered at work
in this vicinity and the Horticultural

Prof. johnson has issued several circu-

and the remedy to be used in its de-
struc ion, which have been widely

Not quite as bad from humanitarian

which limit the production of material

high point as secures protection from

WHAT CONGRESS H AS
DONE.
Important Measures That
Have Passed Both Houses.

WASHINGTON, June 3.-Ihe
record of the first session of the
Fifty sixth Congress is now prac.
tically closed and it is possible to
survey the important work it has
accomplished during the last six
months. 1t has been a busy Con
gress, the busiest, according to
veteran officials, i'll many years.
The noteworthy feature of the
debate OH the Financial bill in
the House was that party lines
were broken to some extent, a
number of Democratic mem bers
from the Eastern and New Eng
land States joining with the ma,
jOrity in passing it. AS it became
law by the Presidents sigma,
ture, on March II, it makes spe.
cific the declaration of the gold
standard, provides a treasury re-
serve of $3.50, 100000, establishes
division of issue and redemp.
ton of the treasury, provides for
the redemption and reissue of in
terest bearing bonds of the
United States and makes new
regulations as to the national
banks, their circulation, estab
liShment in small communities
and the tax they pay.
Porto Rico legislation has been
the most fruitful theme ofcontro-
versy i'll aud out of Congress dur
ing the session. The discussion
first turned on the Revenue bill
levying a duty of 10 per cent of
the Dingley taxes on Porto Rico
goods. The majority of the Ways
and Means Committee urged the
constitutiOnality and necessity of
this course, while the minority,
reinforced by Mr.. Mccall, of
Massachusetts, member of the
majority, maintained that the
Constitution of the United States
extended to Porto Rico, and that
Congress was inaugurating new
and dangerous precedent by Civ
ing the island any other law than
that of the rest of the country.
The debate in the House was sig
nalized by the division of the
majority, which for a time made
the result doubtful, but the bill
ultimately passed. The contest
Ill the Senate was animated. but
less acute, the Senate changing
the entire scope of the measure
by adding a complete form of
CIVIL government.
The exclusion of Brigham II.
Roberts from a seat in the House
because OF his polygamous status,
the refusal Of the Senate to ad.
NIT Mr.. Quay on the appoint
ment of the Governor of Penn,
sylvania and the sensational
Charges, investigation and de
velOpementS in the Senate in the
case of Mr.. Clarke of Montana,
have added some exciting per
sonal phases to the session. In
vestigations have been prolific,
including the inquiry into the
CGar dAlene mining riots in
Idaho, the various inquiries on
polygamy growing out of the
Roberts case and more recently
the Senate investigation of the
postal and other irregularities in
Cuba.
