this morning by the President, who In

The Commissioners are quite pleased with
the bill as 1t was shaped by the conferees
of the Senate and House. In speaking to-
day Of the measure and District LEGISLATION
generally at the present session of Congress
Mr.. mcfarland, president Of the board,
said:
Under all the circumstances the apnro-
priations and legislation for the District
at this session are quite satisfactory. lMauy
of the recommendations of the Commission
ers have been adopted. and favorable action
on others has only been deferred until the
next session. The provision for District
government building. with an Immediate
appropriation of 100000 for the power
house site, with plans and preliminary
work, and the legislation for placing the
telephone wires underground in shortest
possible time are two things for which the
Commissioners have been laborinx for
years, and will be Of great advantage to
the District. Then the much-needed amend
ments of the District code have been made
and there are q number Of minor acts which
improve our conditions The most important
legislation. that providing for new taxation
and licenses, and the most important ap-
preparations are carried. Of course in the
District Of Columbia appropriation act.
which the President has just approved.
Both legislation and appropriations are thu
best that could be had under the cfrcum-
stances. and they are, as Chairman Cannon
intimated on the floor Of the House. the
product Of those circumstances, and In a
sense provisional and tentative We can
believe that at the next session Congress
will be ready to make a proper permanent
arrangement which will provide extraordi-
nary means for the extraordinary munici-
pal expenditures, probably by treasury ad-
vances, to be repaid by sinking fund pro-
vision, for which suitable taxation win nro
vide ample revenue. Meantime we have

CONGRESS AND PRESIDENT.
How the Legislative Leaders Have OPP
posed the Executive.

Washington Corr. New York Herald.
President Roosevelts first experience with
a Congress on his hands has not been sue
cessful, because leaders in both branches of
Congress determined very early in the ses-
sion to give the President as little credit as
possible. In consequence Congress has
weakened itself with the people and
strengthened the President. A glance at
the important Recommendations made by
the President in his annual meSsage-to
some of which Congress paid no attention
whatever. to others Of which it gave only
half-hearted support, and still others it
pretended to favor and then allowed to
die-will show that the representative
statesmen of the republican party in Con-
gress have sought to prevent Mr.. Roose-
Welt becoming a leader.
A record of this kind can hardly be found
in the history of legislation when an admin
istration and Congress were Of the same
political party.

special message in June and in hundreds of
conferences with senators and representa-
tfves during the entire session President
Roosevelt urged reciprocity with Cuba.

CUT FLOWERS FREE

Among the most desirable perqui.
sites OF a Congressman are cut flow.
ers. These are supplied gratuitously
by the Government. writes a Washing.
ton correspondent OF the Cleveland
Plain-Dealer The greenhouses from
which the flowers in question come are
maintained principally TO supply the
city parks with the plants which
make them such feature of the city's
beauty throughout the greater part of
the year. In the cutting of the flow.
ers in these greenhouses, much OF
which is done for the improvement OF
the plants, the White House supply OF
flowers is augmented. After the
White House is supplied, the hospitals
and other public institutions receive
flowers. Many other worthy causes
also share in the distribution. Fami.
lies of members of the Cabinet, the
Supreme Court and legislative mem.
bers come next. This custom which
has prevailed for years OF distributing
the cut flowers is still followed.
Besides the greenhouses in charge
of the superintendent of public build.
ings and grounds, and the White
House conservatory, other gardeners
are those of the Agricultural Depart
ment and the botanic gardens. The
latter are under the direction of the
Senate Committee on Library. The
gardens of the Department of Agricul.
ture are devoted largely to the grow.
ing OF plants other than floral.
