CONGRESS HAD EYE ON
APPROACHING ELECTION
Resume of Work Done at National Capital Shows That
Efforts Were Made to Economic in Order to Help
President ROOseveIts ChanCes-.-Cuba and Panama
We're Main Issues.

WASHINGTON, d. c., April "a
The important legislative accomplish
ments of the first and second sessions
of the Fifty eighth congress were con-
fined to two subjects-Cuba and Pan
ANA. The reciprocity treaty between
the new island republic and the United
States initiated by President McKin-
ley was made operative by legislative
enactment The ratification of a treaty
by the senate and the subsequent in
itiatiOn of legislation for the govern
ment of the canal zone commit the
United States to the construction Of
the Panama canal connecting the waters
of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
The conservatism incident to the ap
preaching presidential campaign, as
usual, was manifested by those re-
sponsible for the acts of the national
legislative body. The annual supply
bills were made up with an eye to
economy. incidentally they were passed
with greater dispatch than heretofore
has been the case at a long session.
The senate ratified the treaty ne
gotiated with Cuba to carry out the
terms of the Platt amendment.
1t also ratified the Chinese CONNER
CIdI treaty, WnlcH provides Tor TWO
open ports in Manchuria.
Revenue Exceeds Expenses.
Chairman Hemenway, of the house
committee on appropriations, in a
statement compiled under his direction
gives the total of all supply bills, sub
ject to slight chances in pending bills,
as $597802, ,324, to which must be added
$84,971,820 for interest on the public
debt. The estimated revenues are
$704,472,060. By these figures the ex-
penses are $22,OOOOOO less than the
revenues. The estimates of the vari-
Gus government departments, on which
the appropriation bills were based ex-
ceeded the total estimated revenues by
$42,845,862. No river and harbor bill
making provision for new projects of
improvements in the rivers and har-
The Saint Paul globe., 1904-04-25

bors of the country was taken. Like
wise no omnibus measure carrying pro-
vision for new public buildings was al
lowed to pass.
While total of over 1900 bills be-
came laws during the two sessions,
less than $50 of them were public
bills, and of this latter number one
half simply authorized the bridging of
rivers, the damming of streams, the
regulation of federal courts and the
ordinances of the District of Columbia.
Had Little to Do With Postal Scandal.
The only direct dealings which the
congress had with the postal scandals
was the investigation by the house of
the connection of its members with
clerk hire increases in third and fourth
class postOffices and representations
regarding leases.
The creation of two additional states
in the Union was provided for in a bill
which passed the house, but not the
senate.
Oklahoma and Indian territory were
united as Oklahoma, Arizona and New
Mexico as Arizona.
Legislation affecting the labor in
terests of the country received cOnsid-
Grafton in the committees of the two
houses, but final action was not taken.
The eight-hour bill was referred to the
department of commerce and labor for
investigation and report, and the anti
injunction bill was postponed by the
committees until the next session.
Smoot Investigation Pending.
The right of Senator Reed Smoot, Of
Utah, to his seat in the senate led to
an investigation still in progress in
volving the Mormon religion and prac-
tees.
In the house there were 1899 bills,
349 resolutions, 152 joint resolutions
and 81 concurrent resolutions intro
duced. Of these 2,253 passed the house.
In the senate there were 5,465 bills in
troduced.
