PRESENTATIVES VAlNLY TRY
TO PASS SUNDRY CIVIL AP-
PROPRlATlON BILL.
MUCH DEBATING IS DONE
Members Of Lower Branch of Con-
gress Indulge in Fiery Language Re-
garding Various Points at Issue
and Every Effort to Secure Passage
Of Act Proves Unsuccessful.

Washington, Feb. 25.-The house
held a lengthy session in deter
mined effort to pas the sundry civil
appropriation bill. There was much
debate on an amendment offered by
Representative Bennett of New York
to include in the bill $4,000 appro-
priation for the enforcement of the
contract labor law The amendment
relieved the authorities from the ne
cessity of accounting vouchers for ex-
penditures from this appropriation
and brought out much opposition.
Mr.. Gardner of Massachusetts de-
clared the secretary of commerce and
labor should not be compelled to file
vouchers for the money to be expended
for enforcing the contract labor law,
as it may be necessary for him to
employ diplomats and spies.
The amendment was carried.
The paragraph appropriating a mil
lion dollars for prosecuting land fraud
cases was amended SO as to require
the employment of agents by the civil
service commission. Chairman TaW-
ney said the interior department had
suggested they be chosen by the secre-
tary of the interior

Called to Order.


Representative Gaines of Tennessee
was called to order for speaking to
Representatives Humphreys of Wash
ington in the second person. Mr. Hum
phreys incurred the displeasure of
Mr.. Gaines in a discussion of an
amendment proposing to increase the
appropriation of $4,000 to enforce the
game laws in Alaska to $4,000. The
amendment was adopted
While Delegate Gale of Alaska was
opposing this appropriation member
suggested that the governor of the
te erritory framed the appropriation.
II wish to say" remarked Mr.. Gale,
that if the governor of Alaska would
remain in Alaska to perform the du-
ties imposed upon him instead of be-
ing a lobbyist here, it would be
great deal better"
Mr.. Gale then changed his charac-
terization to third rate lobbyist"
Wants to Know.
An unsuccessful attempt was made
by Representative James of Kentucky
to abolish the appropriation for the
care of buffalo at Yellowstone park.
He stated that he wanted to find out

Highly Dramatic
Representative Adam NJ. Bayard Of
Mississippi, in the course of a speech
in which he strode from one side of
the chamber to the other in a highly
dramatic manner, denounced the atti
tude of the American government on
the Japanese question as the most
humiliating exhibition of obsequous
senility of any party ever in power"
Several yells followed the speech.

Earlier in the session while discuss

threatened with annihi'ati was one
thing. The same republic reunited
and more firmly established than ever
was quite another The change Of
attitude naturally included the head OF
the nation as well as the nation itself.
1t must not be imagined, however,
that all European sentiment was
hostile to the Union. Many OF the best
men and women In all lands were
naturally our friends both because OF
opposition to slavery and friendship
to republicanism The hearts Of the
masses for the most part were with as
as they ever have been. This senti-
ment was augmented as the struggle
neared a close.
Lincoln's assassination brought out
all the latent and active friendship for
him abroad as well as at home. 1t
silenced the tongues of his enemies.
Following so close upon the termina-
ton of the war, 1t focused the atten-
tien and touched the heart of the
world. The universal and profound
grief shown for the murdered presi-
of other lands that he was nan
out of the ordinary, fact that they
had already begun to suspect. The
changed attitude toward him was
shown in the fine poem written by the
editor of the London Punch.
When the worlds universal republic
is established, of which our own re-
public Is but the forerunner; when
there is liberation in all lands that are
famed by the free air as 1T sweeps
about the earth: when self government
and the individual strength 1t fosters
have become as common as the sun
shine and the rain: when there is uni
versal religion based on the divinity In
man and the common love of God and
humanity; when purity of life. loyalty
to truth and the sacrifice Of self on the
altar of the common good are every
where recognized and practiced. then
Abraham Lincoln, who stood for all Of
these things, will have taken his place
among the worlds few supremacy
great souls That day for all mankind
is much nearer because he lived and
died. If this nation had been rent
asunder in the civil war. If free gov
| eminent had then proved failure. IL
slavery had triumphed over freedom.
that new era for mankind might have
been delayed for centuries or forever
| Therefore Lincoln's work in that crisis
was not for his own land alone. but
| for all lands. 1t was not only to give
| the black race liberty. but to give ali
races liberty. 1t was not merely to as
sure the Union of these states. but
meant eventually that there should be
a union for peace and for universal
freedom as wide as the earth and as
/ long us the ages.
All these things Lincoln's life AID
death helped to make possible There
fore when the parliament of men"
shall indeed come his name should be
one of the foremost nonored among
those who prepared the way.
