How Dixon Does Things.

Thefriends of Representative Joseph
M. Dixon take pride in referring to
him as "the man who does things"
and his record during two terms in
congress contains many incidents
which justify that appelIation. One
OF them, of quite recent date, is 60
characteristic of Dixon's promptness
and energy, that the River Press con-
siders it worthy of special mention.
Some Chouteau county stockmen
whose hay supply was nearly ex.
hausted by feeding continuously dur.
ing the protracted cold spell, learned
there was a large supply of forage in
the government barns at Fort Assinni-
boine-a supply largely in excess Of
the needs of the %post-and decided to
apply for the purchase of as much of
this hay, grain, ETC., as could be
spared by the military authorities.
They discovered, however, that the
trans action could not be made with.
out permission from the secretary
of war, and the latter must get special
authority from congress-.
On Monday last, the matter was
presented to Charles N. Pray, con-
gressman.elect, who at once wired q
statement of the situation to Repre-
sentative Dixon, requesting that he
take such action as appeared necessary.
Mr.. Dixon received the telegram at
3:l5 Monday afternoon, and immed.
lately got busy. He first interviewed
the secretary of war, then drew up the
necessary resolution, caught the eye
of Speaker Cannon and introduced it
in the house, and at 4:45, just ninety
minutes after receiving notice of the
action desired, the necessary authori-
ty was given by the adoption of the
resolution in the lower house of con-
gress.
The resolution went to the e ate
Tuesday and va at once passed by
that body. 1t was then engrossed and
sent to the president for signature
an instance of rapid legislative work
that is said 10 be almost a record
breaker.
