Adjourned.

The first session OF the Fifty-ninth
Congress was monumental In Ito output
of words and f~ervently sociological and
reformatory in the character of it's most
treasured legislation. What the Con-
gress left undone may be passed over
lightly. The Philippine tariff bin and
certain treaties, for instance: Congress
was In 30 solemn a frame OF mind as
to the regulation and amelioration OF
things at homo by Federal omniscience
that more distant matters could not be
attended to. Justice to the Philippines
sounds well; but Judgment against cor
porations was what @the people want.
This Congress, and especially She Sem
ate, has been singularD sensitive to
actual or imaginary popular desires.
Panics are common enough, and Of late
there has been a panic against business.
A psychologist might find curious sub
stance Of comparison between the state
Of mind Of the Senate when it passed
the Beveridge meat inspection amend
ment to the Agricultural Appropriation
bill and that OF the Jewish mothers on
the East Side last week.
Congress has been responsive some
times to real, if fleeting, popular feeling,
sometimes to ingeniously worked up
simulations Of it. The pure food law is
an example Of the artificial, popular
sentiment; what may be called tho many

The pure food law, the railroad rate
law and the meat inspection law are
new stations on the road to all-Feder-
alism. Henceforth the public health
and the virtue of the railroads will be
under the care Of the final American
authority and refuge, bureaucracy.
The meat inspection law is really an
attempt to revive a business that
had been injured by sociological dis
favor. The railroad rate law, made
drastic by the Senate, was passed
Just when the Administration had been
demonstrating the effectiveness OF the
Elkins law to deal with the essential
wrong Of railroad management. Will
the new statute, SO long deliberated in
the Senate, so diligently patched and
trimmed, survive the constitutional trials
that may be in store for it? How will
it work. viii it satisfy or dfsappoint
