There's d real live Bogy Man in Con-
gress, and he eats bills-eats 'em alive If
their papaS aren't watching.
Il you ever have an appropriation bill
which you are particularly fond of, which,
By the way. calls upon Uncle to dig down

The Bogy Man. whose name is def

clared TO be Uncle Joe. caught a nice, in
nOcent fat appropriation bin the other
day and almost had it devoured by one
OF his friends before a few OF the bills
near relations came along and rescued it.
Senate Passed Bill.
The Senate some time since passed a
bill introduced by Senator Piles. of Wash
ingtou, appropriating S750000 for the
Observation-Disclosures Exposition, which
viii be held at Seattle in 1909.
The bill came over 10 the House Rep
resentative Humphreys. of Washington.
had previously introduced a similar bill
but had action upon IL deferred when the
Senator's bill passed and came TO the
House for consideration
But wait Here the Bogy Man gets in
his fine work. There have been num-
Der of people opposed to the Seattle ex-
position, and it is asserted that one who
smokes quite a number Of cigars each
day and who handles a gavel with his
left hand, and who would turn quickly
If you were 20 say How do you do. Mr..
President-to-be?" was against the bill.
Al least somebody. just who couldn't
be positively stated, had this Seattle Ex-
position appropriation bill referred TO the
House Committee on Ways and Means,
Of which Representative Serene Payne
is the chairman. If there is anything in
the way of legislation or appropriation
which passes the BOgy Man. it dOesu't
get past NIr. Payne-uOt often.
Mr.. Payne was no doubt surprised that
a bill evidently belonging to the Com
mittee on Expeditions was referred to his
committee, but he took il cOnscleHuously.
Committee Considered Ii.
Meanwhile the House Committee on Tx
positions was considering the same bill,
without knowing that it had been re-
ferred 10 another committee When they
were informed that they had nothing 10
do with the consideration OF the bin and
that it had been sent 10 Mr. Payne's COM
mittee, some member asked the Republi-
can floor leader If he would not send the
exposition bill TO their committee
NO, said Mr.. Payne, I want 10 look
It over"
He's still looking ii over, but the back
eTs of the exposition say q bin appro-
pFiating money for it will be passed. or
a least viii be fayorably reported to the
House
But the Bogy Man may have other
ways of catching bills that he would like
TO eat, so be careful always.
