CONGRESS AND ORATORS.

Half century ago men were elect ed to the two houses of Congress be- cause of their capacity as orators. Men were elected because they could make eloquent speeches. There has been change. It is not the men who make the most and the longest and loudest speeches who accomplish most as senators and representatives in Con- gress. There are reasons. One is the membership of the house is numer- ically so much larger than it was in the days of the past. Consequently re- strictions have to be placed upon de- bate. so as to prevent the takers from wasting the time of the bodies of which they are members. Most of the important work of Congress is done by the committees Measures are referred to them for investigation and report. and their reports boil down things so that long debatcs are not necessary. The committeeman who can present the salient points of a measure in the clearest manner and in the fewest words is the man who serves his coun- try better than the mal. who makes long speeches for the delectation of the galleries.
 Congressional oratory is a good thing in its place: but the bulk of it has for it's object the notoriety of the speakers rather than the good of the whole country. A man may have iT- 1 f1uence in Congress without keeping | his mouth in perpetual notion Knoxville Journal Tribu. e.

THIRTY-0NE YOKE OF OXEN
Unusual Motive Power in Moving of
 Guilford Schoolbouse. lSnCciaI 10 fhc .InurnaIx IxC, C,nurierl

Guilford March 5.-Residents of this town were witnesses to a rather unusual sight for these times on Tues day, when thirty-one yoke of oxen and a pair of horses were to be seen, hitched to single load, in the center of the town As some of the resi- dents remarked, they had no idea that there were so many cattle in Guilford
 Some time ago Reuben D. Hill pur- chased the old schoolhouse. He has tried on several occasions to move the building to the site where he intended to use it as a dwelling house, and fail- ed. On one occasion he used seven- teen yoke of oxen and six pairs of horses. Tuesday the house was put on skids and thirty-one yoke of oxen and pair of horses were hitched on. Work was started shortly after 10 o'clock. and by 1:30 the house was on it's new site, having been dragged one mile and three-quarters.
 It was necessary to raise all the aerial cable in the line of the build ing's route, and to care for this a force of construction men from the Southern New England Telephone company were on duty from New Ha- ven.

Representation to say that men Tn the building trades were out Of work every winter, and the efforts or a cer- tain newspaper to belittle the serious ness of the situation was little less than criminal.
 The Hon. Alexander Troup gave the mayors reason for enlarging the com mittee. Said MT. Troup, You gentle men are here to decide whether the mayor made a false move in appoint ing a committee to do what they could to relieve the situation among the poor of the city. The mayor issued the call for that committee with great deal of reluctance, fearing if he did so, that it wocld be said he'd make political capital out of it. Just that has result ed. A certain Sunday paper, on the editorial page critislzed the relief plan. It stated that the factories were all running, that the situation was great ly exaggerated, that if the present plans were carried out, it would make New Haven haven for all the hoboes and tramps in the country. over on the next page was an interview with Supt. s. o. Preston of the Organized Charities The two articles were evil dently inspired by the same mind. Su- perintendent Preston through many years in that work has lost all the milk Of human kindness from his heart" MT. Troup attacked the Or ganized Charities methods of doing business but when pr. Phillips, who it happens. is at the head Of the Organ ized Charities association, explained some things. Mir. Troup said that in some respects he had been misin- formed. Continuing, MT. Troup said: Gentlemen, it Is up to you to decide whether this newspaper Is right, and the mayor has made mistake. If he has there is but one thing to do, to ! disband this committee. and return all contributions. Or is the mayor right, and has this committee a reason for existing?"
 When the question of whether the work be continued or not was brought up it was the unanimous opinion of all that the committee continue. An unanimous vote of commendation was given the mayor.
 Following MT. Troup. Registrar James J. Carr spoke. He thought the plan of sending a special committee to the city supply house a good one. Su- ]pervising Principal David Lambert said that up to two weeks ago he did not think the situation was any different than in other years, but a personal in- vestigation had since shown him the true inwardness of the situation He told of several children coming to school without having anything to eat.
 Before adjourning the committee vot- ed that the supervising principals look up the cases of destitution in their respective districts, and report them tc
 the special committee.

THESE MEN RESPONSIBLE
IF HOWARD BRIDGE FALLS
Majority in Council Takes Another
Chance on Howard St.

Commissioner O'Brien recon-
mended that new bridge be built
and refused to stand sponsor for
the councils action. Funk and
Watkins Joined Baldwin in voting
against it.
Councilman Baldwin declared
that $4,000 additional cost of a
new structure at this time would
be cheap in comparison with kill
ing a carload of people. He plead
ed with the council not to take the
step and assume the hazard. Bald
win said the bridge may stand a
few years or only a few minutes,
no one was able to tell. He said
1T was not proper for the council
to fly in the face of the boards
recommendation that a new bridge
should be built.
He declared that several firms
had offered to erect bridge for
approximately $4,000 and were
willing to take a chance on the
cost of a foundation. "If the en-
gineer and the board will recon-
mend that the present structure be
patched, and will assume the re-
sponsibiity, then l will be in favor
of carrying out such recommends
tion," he said.
Mayor Moore was disappointed
with the action of the council. He
said:
"The need of bridge across the
north channel Is one Of the most
urgent public necessities confront
ing the city. 1t should be attend
ed to promptly. The money could
be provided by shaving other
bridge funds"
By authorizing the Mission and
East Olive av. bridges last night
the council practically exhausted
the bridge bond issue OF $500 200
voted at the last election.
One Howard st. bridge has fall
en- already. The council has in
yited another catastrophe.

CORONER AND DEAD
WAGON RUSH MADLY
after DEFuNCT CALF

A dead calf in the river near the
Washington st. bridge this morn
ing caused the police and Coroner
Witter as well as the hurry-up
wagon of the morgue no end of
trouble. 1t was reported to the
police that the calf was dead
human. The police called up the
coroner, who in turn called Smith
4 Co.. undertakers, then grabbed
his hat and rushed pell-mell for
the scene of the tragedy. He found
the poor, defunct calf.
Coroner Witter hadn't finished
hopping his perspiring brow when
the morgue wagon reached the
scene. There was some more
hopping up of perspiration over
that clammy corpse of calf. Then
the calf was moored to the shore
and the crematory department or
dered to cart 1t away to the in
cinerator.
