Having the Diplomatic and Consular
Appropriation bill ostensibly under con-
stderatfon, the House spent most Of its
time listening to campaign speeches.
1t was not until after two hours of
filibustering on the part of Mr.. Williams
that the House got to work at anything,
however.
Chairman Jenkins, of the Judiciary
Committee, made a speech on the Rail-
road-rate bill that commanded close at
tention at the hands OF both Republi-
cans and Democrats.
After considering the legal phases of
the question he proceeded to say that
instead Of making the bill constitutional
by including court review. 1t would, in
his opinion, make it absolutely valueless
to confer upon the court the power to
pass upon the reasonableness of the
rate.
He contended that Congress has the
right to fix the rate, and he thought the
better argument would be that the judi
ciai power cannot interfere unless Con-
gresS SO wills it.

1t is expected that several con-
tractors will be in Brattleboro next
Monday and Tuesday to inspect the
site of the proposed Halliday brook
water system. The construction com
mittee of the board will receive sealed
proposals for the contract until 4
o clock Friday afternoon. 1t is under
stood that a local concern will be
among the bidders. The water board
has been negotiating with b. II. Gay
Il Co. of Boston, bankers and brokers,
in regard to floating an issue of bonds,
and the Boston firm is now looking into
the matter.
The caucus law enacted at the last
session of the legislature will not be
tested in Brattleboro this year. The
time for filing applications to have
check lists used at the caucuses ex-
pired Tuesday without the appearance
of any petition, and so the Forthcoming
caucuses will be governed as formerly,
each caucus being law unto itself as
far as the qualifications of the voters
are concerned. This old-fashioned
method will allow a fairer expression
of the town S opinion politically, for
only about one-half the voters in town
filed out the intention blanks on their
inventories and many democrats regis
tered as republicans.

trial in the case of Capt. P. W. Jones,
Of the Virginia National Guard, con-
victed Of the murder Of Maud Can
eron Robinson, formerly of Selma, N.
c., and given IS years in the peniten-
tiary; but as the result of a decision
rendered by the Court of Appeals OF
Virginia allowing a new trial to Fred
S. Hoback, convicted in Floyd county,
Va, of murder, the same point invol-
we'd in the Jones case Yves decided in
favor of the prisoner and Jones con-
sequently will get new trial.
