WHAT HAS BEEN DONE.

During the present session of con-
gress it is interesting to review the
progress made so far by the Demo
Gratis in the senate and house. under
the able leadership of Senator Cor
man and Representative Williams.
In the senate they have decided to
bind themselves to caucus rule. ac-
cepting as the party policy whatever
is agreed upon by two-thirds of the
caucus. The importance of this ac-
ton should not be overlooked. For
years in the senate the Democratic
members have opposed the Republi-
cans individually or in small groups;
now, on important questions, after
the caucus decision has been reach
ed, they can oppose as a unit and
under Senator Germans leadership.
The only legislation so far passed
is the Cuban reciprocity bill. Small
as are the concessions to Cuba they
could not have been given without
the aid of Democratic votes. and the
Democrats can claim credit for the
treaty and for the bill which made
it effective. On the Panama ques-
ton, which is now being considered
in the senate. the Democrats have
taken a positive stand in opposition
to the methods by which the treaty
was obtained, and they may decide
to prevent it's ratification, which
they have the power to do /. Senator
German believes hat the Panama
affair would make a good issue on
which to fight the next presidential
campaign, and is trying to unite the
Democrats on a plan of opposition.
BY the time congress again
the Democratic attitude toward the
treaty will no doubt have been de-
cided uDon.
Whether they oppose the ratiica-
tion of the treaty. or not. they have
already exposed the questionable
E4ethods by which the Republican
administration had obtained it. In
this they received the aid of Repub-
lican Senator Hoar. whose bitter ar
raignment Of his party's administra-
tion caused Consideration in the Re
publican ranks. and brought him the
congratulation of the Democrats.
Leader williams has brought the
