CONGRESS GETTING
DOWN TO BUSINESS
The Appropriation Bills Give II Some
thing TO Do-Prospects of the Cur.
renCy Bill.

Congress is getting down to action.
There is semblance of real work in
the Senate and House. The work of
the session is beginning. The currency
bill is in shape. 1t will soon be dis
cussed and its fate decided. The White
House, too, is taking hold. The orders
have gone forth for beginning the suit
against the Hartman lines in the West.
That is something on the old order of
trust busting. Washington once again
is showing life over something besides
politics.
The House has, in fact, gotten under
way with an appropriation bill. To be
sure it was only deficiency appropria-
ton bill to supply funds for various Blu
reauS and Departments of the Govern
ment that had run short. One of the
items was $1,000,000 for coal with
which the battleship fleet could steam
around the world Incidentally it
brought out the authoritative informa-
ton that the fleet was going around
the world. A deal of important news
comes out when the appropriation bills
are under preparation. 1t comes this
way. The Appropriations Committees
will vote no money till its members
know something about what it is being
voted for. They send for anyone they
want to Observation-Disclosures Of the Cab
met, Bureau Chiefs, clerks, everybody
and anybody who may have to do with
the appropriation or who may have
knowledge regarding the conditions.
Nominally the hearings are secret for
the time being. But they are printed,
and when the appropriation bill is re-
ported the hearings verbatim are given
TO the world.

The Senate PegSing Away.

The Senate has been pegging along,
doing very little except to confirm or
reject nominations and to talk about
Secretary Cortelyou's delay in furnish
ing data on the issue of Treasury notes
and the allotment of Panama Canal
bonds. The Aldrich bill will pass the
Senate, as has been stated heretofore,
but there is promise of a debate for
two weeks or Whereabouts. The Repub-
licans are pretty well agreed in favor
of it, and the Democrats are somewhat
divided. They have been trying to agree
upon some substitute measure more
sweeping in it's provisions. Just now ii
looks as tho the Aldrich bill would be
defeated in the House by a cOmbina-
ton of Democrats and Republicans.
Speaker Cannon may find a way to
handle the measure there, but it has
been intimated that he would not grieve
If there We're no currency legislation at
all. He may be glad to send the Aldrich
bill to his House Committee on Bank
ing and Currency to sleep long sleep.

ity of Republicans there to report 1t out
But business will be picking up in
both Houses from now on. The COM
mittees have been getting out a grist
of bills, chiefly appropriation bills, and
"chew on Immediately. In the mean
time the Senate will dispose of the cur
rency bill. and when that has reached
a vote the Senate will have some ap-
preparation bills over from the House.

SHANE FoR THE pEopLE.

There ~ one paragraph In the re.
publican state platform which will
cause a smile to come on the faces
OF those who read 1t when they think
OF the kilkinny cat fight that the
delegates to the convention that
passed the resolution had. and
which was reported as record
breaker In the history of Idaho poll
ties for bitter warfare and factional
ilghting, The resolution must have
been passed previous TO the family
feud which resulted in so many
political deaths and no much bitter
feeling. The resolution follows:
I'VE point with shame to the in
suit rendered the people OF this state
by the factlonal contest now being
carried on in the democratic party
and the complete surrender OF prin-
eiple and party policy to factional
strife, The lncompetenoy of the
party and It's unfitness to control
thN ah&hH VI ANut9 NleAFly appear
by the acts and assertions of those
claiming to DO its leaders"
The people of the state might
very appropriately take the wording
OF the resolution and say: I'VE
point with shame to the Insult
rendered US by the republican state
convention in the faetional fight
made by the politicians In which
principle. honor and dignity were
sacrificed In mad scramble for the
spells. regardless of principle or per.
aonal friendships. Resolved. that
tho republican state convention Is a
disgrace to our state and elvlliza-
ton. and Its undlgnlfied acts empha.
siEes the necessity of direct pri-
mary law which will restore to the
people the right TO nominate their
candidates. Resolved. that we con-
denim this convention for refusing
to recommend the direct primary and
will support only the party which
faVors nominations by that method. -

ROBBED IN SALOON
Trackman Is Victim of Daylight
Holdup.

HOldup.
SPOKANE. Wash. Sept 4.-one
OF the boIdest and most vicious day
light holdups brought to the atten-
tion of the police In several months
occurred yesterday afternoon about
o'clock in the Brook saloon. Front
avenue and Wall street, when James
NJ. Taylor, trackman, was brutally
beaten and robbed of $40 in money
by o, G. Ward, believed by the police
to be tough character, and COM
panion OF Ward. according to the
report made by the trackman shortly
after the alleged attack.
Ward was arrested by Detectives
Weir and Burns on a charge of dis
orderly conduct. which is likely to
be changed to a more serious one.
The alleged victim met Ward and
his companion in the Liberty saloon,
Taylor said he flashed a roll of bills,
whereupon Ward struck him several
vicious blows in the face, while the
unknown companion grabbed the
money and ran.
With his face beaten almost to a
jelly and blood flowing freely from
his wounds, Taylor was picked up by
the officers who responded In answer
to a hurry call. Ward was held
without bond.

TO HELP UNEMPLOYED
Suggestions By X. Hunter and
Others at Hotel Astor Meeting.

The subject of THE Unemployed" was taken up
Yesterday afternoon the Hotel Astor at the con-
ference of the Ethical:Social League. Robert
Hunter who was TO have spoken at the proposed
meeting in Union Square Park when the bomb was
exploded: the Rev. DR.. @. w. Knox. acting presi-
dent of the Union Theological Seminary: Dr. F. J.
Warne DIR. L, X. F'rankel. manager of the Unlteu
Hebrew Charities, and the Rev NJ St Croh
Wright were among the speakers.
Mr. Hunter said a central employment agency
should be established by the state, modelled on the
plan of one he had in Berlin, where men out
of work could go and spend the day, have BATH
meal at good restaurant and shave, whiie the
officials of the municipal agency kept wires hot
and in touch with employ and industrial centres
in the effort find jobs for their guests
He said the eighr-hour day for workInen would
help to give work great many more. No chill
dren should be employed under sixteen years Of
age and women should receive equal pay for the
kind of work.
When women get equal pay it will mean the
employment Of more men, said Mr.. Hunter, ''and
the job would go to the breadwinner instead or 10
