that they are no longer afraid OF MIR.
Roosevelt, that they are coming out into
the open and expect that their kind
are to be accorded new lease of life.
This was made clear during the dis
cussion in the House upon the sundry
civil bill and especially upon those
phases Of that bill which dealt with the
secret service and with the various
commissions appointed by President
Roosevelt for the purpose of investi-
cations looking to the betterment OF
conditions in this country. The vote
against the Presidents policies was
overwhelming, 1853 to Al.
PROFESSIONALLY hatred of the Presi-
dent and resentment OF his criticism of
the House membership contributed
strongly to the result In addition to
this it was obvious that the House was
determined that the forces engaged in
detecting crime shall be subject to
political influence.
Another illustration of the hatred of
the President and the desire to undo as
much as possible some of the things he
has done was the adoption Of pro-
vision preventing absolutely any ex-
penditure to aid the work of COM
missions not specifically authorized by
statute. This declares that no clerks
employed in the pubic service shall be
detailed to aid any such commissions.
The commissions the President has
appointed without authorization of
Congress have been for the purpose of
aiding in the great conservation move
and in promoting other public policies
which form the features of Mr.. Roose-
velt's administration. Most of them,
too, were appointed because Congress
was too Indifferent to the public well
fare and too INDECENT to pass the neces-
sary legislation.
So far as the House could effect that
purpose, it's action was a reputation
of Rooseveltism; and this fact should
be thoroughly understood and remem-
bered if the people of this country ex-
pect to enforce the Roosevelt policies
with respect to many of the greatest
public questions.

: WASHINGTON LETTER
by John j. Hannah
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

| = Dy JOnu u. ddnnsan I
| 91nl1 ln-nnnnnJlaTLnnT lnIln,lnrt
Washington, D. c., Feb. 27.-Sen
ators Kean of New Jersey and Penros'
of Pennsylvania put themselves in the
limelight when they interposed object
ion to Senator Burkett of Nebrask;
continuing speech he was making OF
| the Senate rules. Senator Kean OBJ
jected because he said Mr.. Burkett
was using personalities. There was
no ground for such assertion as the
Nebraskan vas speaking in perfectly
impefsonal way. But when the Jer
seyite was whipped upon the facts Pen
rose came to the front by asserting
his senatorial prerogative to object
He did not like the line of talk, the Sen
ate was getting. So under the rule
the Nebraskan had to sit down and
keep still for time
Such tactics only emphasize the ne.
cessity of reorganization Of the Sen.
committees. That reorganization is
bound to come and Penrose and Rear
and the old organization have adopted
tactics which have thoroughly aroused
other Senators, especially those who
come from the west and are in favor
of square deal.
Mr. Burkett was speaking to a reso-
luton introduced by him and having
for it's object better distribution OF
committee assignment to the end that
the business may be expedited. Mr..
Burkett called attention to the fact
that the Senate will reorganize fo1
three sessions, covering two years,
after March 4th and in that time prob
ably would have to deal with more i'm
portant legislation than has been be-
fore it in decade, including the new
tariff bill and the proposed currency
legislation.
He then read from a table he hao
prepared showing that on the seven
most important committees there are
eighty-nine places, belonging to forty
six states and ninety-two senators, but
held by thirty-seven states and fifty
three senators. Sixteen states hold
ffty-fve places. The other thirty
states hold thirty-four places. Twenty
eight senators hold sixty-three places.
The other sixty-eight senators hold
twenty-six places.
Republicans hold fifty-five of these
places, and thirty three republicans
hold all of these fifty-ive. Twenty
eight republicans have no recognition
on any of these important committees.
Democrats hold thirty-four of these
places. Eleven democrats have nc
representations on these committees
at all. On these seven important
committees twenty-three places only
are held in all the states west of the
Mississippi River and the other sixty
six are held by eastern senators. II
was at this point when Kean and Pen
rose came to the front and stopped the
proceeding.

United States Senator Isaac Stephen
son, without certificate of election
but armed with certified copy of the
journals of the separate houses of the
Wisconsin legislature of the date when
the first vote on United States Senator
was taken, will on March a claim that
he was reelected to the United States
Senate and demand that he be sworn
in as a Senator from that state for the
next six years. This information
comes from members of the committee
on privileges and elections of the SEN
ate who claim that they have been in
formed as to this intention and who see
IN such course some work ahead for
them at the special session.
1t is claimed also that Mr.. Stephen
son intends to make statement upon
the floor of the Senate in regard to
conditions in Wisconsin and particularly
in relation to the votes which have
been taken by the legislature to elect
Michigan, chairman of the committee
on privileges and elections has dis
cussed the matter with number of
senators. The discussion has developed
that there is quite division of senti-
ment in the Senate as to the regular
ity of such a proceeding. 1t seems
certain that the demand based upon
the mere certified record of a legisla-
ture will not be regarded as well foun-
ded and that the Senate will be loathe
to grant the request of Mr.. Stephen
son without further investigation.
The precedent for presenting the
claim to election in this manner was
made back in the nineties when the
Addicks fight first started in Delaware.
Mr.. Dupont came to the Senate bear
ing certified copies of the actions OF
the separate houses of the Delaware
legislature. He got into the Senate
and in person presented these copies
and demanded that the oath be adj
ministered to him. Of course the SEN
ate did not administer the oath but 1t
referred the documents to the COM
mittee on privileges and elections.
After considerable hearing and going
into the matter the committee on privi-
leges and elections reported in favor OF
seating Mr.. Dupont. The Senate how
ever failed to take any action upon the
report and Mr.. Dupont was never
seated and was not sworn in as SEN
ator.

With an appropriation record of one
billion, one hundred million dollars and
a record for not having passed single
piece of legislation of benefit to the en-
tire country, the Goth Congress comes
to it's end. 1t was one of the prize do
nothing sessions of Congress in the
country's history. The Congress came
into session possessed of no fear of the
Big Stick. The President would retire.
Election is two years off for those
members who succeeded at the last
election. They had no incentive to
work at this for there is plenty of time
to make showing at another session
Although the country is clamoring for
legislation to correct transportation
abuses, the committee on interstate
commerce of the House and of the
Senate did not report single measure
of any Importance. The one measure
that could be made of Importance was
the Fulton bill in the Senate and that
only reason it was permitted to see
day light was that it was understood
it's author desired it to aid him in Sc
support for reelection in the Oregon
legislature and that he had no serious
intention of pushing it for passage.
| The intimation of an agreement of
this kind is confirmed by his subse-
quent action. At no time from the
day it was reported until the close of
the session did he make a serious effort
to have it taken up for consideration.
The Senate jockeyed the postal saw
ings bank bill all through the session
and in it's closing days Senator Carter
brought in substitute bill as full OF
snakes as the Mississippi bluffs back OF
Prairie du Chen. The House simply
did not attempt to do anything. The
usual raft of private pension bills were
introduced and passed. Some few
measures of Importance to particular
localities such as fixing a term o.
court, or some bill of like Importance
toathe country at large, occupied thu
attention of the members, when no
engaged upon appropriations. Oh
course there were charges and counter
charges by members and the President
charges against Panama Canal, agains
newspapers, against the relatives o
everybody that ever held publi
position and lot of entertainment o
various descriptions, but there wa
nothing that was of any substantial
value to the country.
The closing days of President Roose
velt's administration are days of carni
