BLAMES THE SENATE
Mr.. Tawney and Cuban Reciprocity
Review of the Session.

Review of the Session. ~
WINONA, MINN.-Congressm James A.
Tawney is home from Washington In speak
ing Of the session of congress just closed he
says: -. SO; i
The session was one of the most important
IN the past ten he Of
Importance. ,-r; By 1t we Will extend TO- our,
remote Pacific possessions system Of civil
government, including a legislative assembly
which will afford an opportunity for the in
telligent Filipino people to participate in the
enactment Of laws for the government of the
islands. ,.
Another important measure is one tor the
repeal Of the Spanish war revenue taxes.
Also an act extending and making more ef-
fectve the Chinese exclusion law Also the
Philippine tariff act for the raising OF revenue
in the Philippine Islands, and extending to
the products OF that island imported TO the
United States preferential tariff Of Is per
cent, or imposing only Is per cent of the
duties collected upon like articles imported
from foreign countries Another question
that has been agitated for long time. and
ment of a permanent census bureau. Still
another measure Of great Importance, espe-
cially to the people of the northwest is the
four years the darymen of the United States
endeavored to secure the passage of this law,
but the opposition of the manufacturers Of
oeomargarin and their friends was so strong
that it was only by the greatest effort that
the bill finall became a law. No measure
passed at this session of congress will, in my
Judgment, benefit, directly. so many indlvld-
ual citizens. o
Another Of vast Importance is the irrigation
law enacted at this session. In addition TO
these might mention few that have passed
one or the other Of the two houses and will
become laws: after the expiration of the fifty
seventh congress Among these is the ,, anti IT.
assassination Of President Mckinley. bill
admitting the territories OF Arizona. New
the senate has fixed day for consideration;
The only question of Importance referred
to in the presidents annual message to con.
gress acted upon adversely is the question OF
reciprocity with Cuba: The house passed
bill containing provisions authorizing the
president to negotiate a .reciprocal trade
agreement with the recommendation OF the
| president. This bill also contained a pro-
Vision reducing the duty on refined sugar.
The failure on the part of the senate to pass
the bill as it was passed in the house was
entirely to the fact that this fsatuTe
| fined sugar was obnoxious to certain senators
who were in a position to control the action
| OF that body But for this fact, the bill
would day be law.

works system. The path of the storm was
about seven miles wide.

NOT ONE-HALF THE CUT
Lumber Shipments to the East Fail
OF Because of Disagreement.

DULUTH, MINN.-The daily cut of lum-
ber by mills located on the harbors of Duluth
is now, 100000 feet. Just at present, on &C
count Of a. war between the shippers and buy
ers on one side and the vessel owners and
manufacturers on the other, shipments to
the east are not half the cut. Docks are
piling up with sawn lumber, most Of 1t al
ready sold to wholesalers, and there Is now
estimated to be on docks here waiting for-
warding more than $50, 100000 feet OF boards
and strips. OF this immense quantity almost
all goes east by water to New York and New
England points. -.. :
block of about 60, 900, 600 feet of pine tim
Der near Vermillion lake, in the northern
part of this county, has been sold by r. H.
Webber to W. H. Gilbert of Ashland, who
will manufacture It. Mr.. Gilbert is unde-
cided as to whether he will build mill al
the timber or rail the logs to this city ne
has no mill, but Is having large amount
Of timber from the Wisconsin side or tne-hne
cut at the mill Of P. D. Jones at the west
end of the city Some other pine land safes
are on the string, going to manufacturers
hands, and may be announced soon.
Some 4OO0O 900 feet of the Irwin & O,Br1en
drive have been hoisted out of the water at
Bemidu, and put on cars for transfer to tne
same water q short distance down stream al
Grand Rapids. 1t is about seventy miles py
rail from Bemidji to Grand Rapids, but SO
tortuous is the Mississippi and SO frequent
are the lakes and swamps that 1t Is founo
advisable to hoist out the logs at one point
to transfer them across to the other. A long
delay in driving is thus overcome. The en-
tire up-river drive of the Burlington Lum-
Der company, amounting to about l2,ooo'ooo
feet, will be handled the same way, and Work
has already commenced. This Burlington
drive Is handled to Minneapolis by the ooom
company and there is taken oyer by Its own
er, who has towing facilities On the lower
river.
Lumber rates will remain at $3.50 thou
sand feet until Sept L. when they will ad-
vance. This decision was reached at meet
ing OF the Lumber Carriers association IN
Chicago, and is in opposition to the move
ment among local shippers to lower 1ne
price.
