REPUBLIC SPECIAL
Washington, June z2-Congress will con-
cluds its first session in the first week in
July. unless a White House explosion oc-
ours TO disarrange the programme It will
have been In session by that time Just seven
months.
The work Of Congress has been performed
under conditions which, happily, are very
unusual. The members were elected when
William Mckinley won his second triumph.
Before they could assemble the President
had been assassinated and Colonel Roose-
welt succeeded to the presidency.
The work Of Congress must be considered
not only in the light of the platform of the
Republican Convention. but also in the
light of subsequent events, which have had
remarkable effect upon the public mind
and which wrote the duty OF Congress in
letters larger than those used by the plat
form makers in Philadelphia.
MeKINLEY'S POLICY IGNORED
ROOSEVELT LAUGHED To sCORN.
Moral issues have often cut a greater fig
ure in the politics Of the United States than
issues of sold-blooded business. Moral is
sues have. by the present Congress, been
practically ignored. An examination of the
epitome Of the doings OF Congress, showing
the things that have been done, as well as
those that have not been done, will reveal
that Congress, on the great question Of Gu
ban relief, which has stirred the country
from one end to the other. has been recre-
ant to its duty and has. left Cuba in a con-
dition of bankruptcy which is likely to re-
suit in untold evils to the administration.
There is only one chance in a hundred
that Congress will relent at the last mo-
ment and pass bill granting tariff conces-
sions to Cuba There is only one chance IN
a thousand that the Senate will ratify a re-
ciprccity treaty with CUBA.
Thus. ignoring everything that the late
President Mckinley did to secure fair treat
ment for the struggling Republic, and
laughing to scorn the recommendations of
President Roosevelt. who has done every
thing in his power to carry out the wishes
OF his predecessor. Congress will leave Cuba
stranded high and dry. q prey to the COM
mercial temntations Of other countries and
liable to drift away from US rather than to
come into closer relations.

The gunboat Manila, the first OF the

the result Of the policy of Chief Naval
Constructor Bowles to have all naval
vessels repaired at Government yards

repairing is very great.
