CIRCUIT BILL NOT DEAD

The Grout oleomargarine bill was
lald at rest in Congress by being put
over until December. It is a pity
That this meritorious measure was not
andled by stronger man.-Rutland
Herald.
The above paragraph is one kind of
il campaign trick, and very slick
5" .. W. ,,s kind. 1t is a miSrepre-
senlati)n designed to injure Gen.
Hrout S candidacy in the present CAIN
pdl9n Everybody knows that the
"sno on this bill was made ia the ag-
llcultural committee. The oleo trust
made powerful efforts to kill it in the
Committee, because they knew, as ev-
erybnly else did, that il the bill came
TO "A vote in the House, the chances
were more than 80 ia 100 that it
would be passed. The cleo trust did
succeed in delaying the report Of the
comMiltee until near the end of the
session, but they failed to kill the bill
and the bill is not dead.
Congress adjourned earlier than U.s.
ual this year. 1t seems that some of
the congressman were in the condi-
ton of Representative Powers of Yer
mont. They wanted to 60 home to
meet their constituents "face to
face, and instead OF leaving before
the end of the session, they arranged
to adjourn the session. At the be-
ginning Of the last week OF Congress
the daily newspapers all over the
country in their usual congressional
forecasts for the week, expressly stat
ed that the only bill that had any
chance of passage before adjournment
besides the necessary appropriation
bills, was the Grout oleo-margarine
bill, And newspaper readers know
that the only bill of this sort, besides
the appropriations which did attract
much attention after that time was
the circuit oleo-margarine bill. Bills
If the Importance of this one are n 1t
passed without discussion, even
though their merits are established
and their passage fore.ordained, be-
cause congressman as rule, have a
weakness for talking upon bills which
particularly effect their constituents,
for the sake of political effect.
Unfortunately the House refused to
delay adjournment for a discussion of
oleomargarine and the bill was not
passed; but day was set apart for
the consideration of this bill during
the first week of the next session of
congress.
1T is too bad that the bill was not
passed by both the House and the
Senate and put into operation at once.
But to say that the bill is dead, or
"laid at rest, is stretching the
point. 1t would be no more absurd
to say that the Nicaragua canal bill
is dead. That BILL carrying an ap-
preparation Of $3.50, 900, 900, also went
over to the next session, although it
has been the pet scheme of some Of
the most Influential men in Congress;
but it is very much alive, and is ex.
pected to be passed. Likewise the
Grout bill. Woodstock Standard.
