Judge Milburn, died yesterday at

memory by reason Of the fact that
ne was for many years Judge Of
this court and afterwards justice of
the supreme court of this state, and
man honored by every lawyer, |
move the court to take such action
as may be appropriate at this time.
BY Judge Sanner:: The court hears
with deep regret and takes official
notice with equal regret, Of the
death OF Judge Milburn and will APP
point committee of the older mem
bers OF this bar to draft and present
to the court for permanent inscrip-
ton upon it's minutes, suitable reso-
lutlons respecting Judge Milburn
and the loss we have sustained in
his demise. Upon that committee
the court appoints Mr.. Farr, Mr..
Porter and Mr.. Myers, and at this
time as a further mark OF respect to
The memory Of Judge Milburn the
court will adjourn until Wednesday

volume of business, but by the charac-
ter Of the legislation and the care taken
in its consideration. Measured by that
standard the sixty-frst congress will
take high place. There have been,
however, more than 600 Of the q, 900
bills considered and reported from
committees and about 800 public laws
enacted in this session as against 400
public laws for the entire Sixtieth con-
gress. I can commend the entire
membership Of the house for industry
and Intelligence in their legislative
work Of this session.
In my judgement, the two sessions
of the Sixty-frst congress have ac-
complished more and done better work
than any one congress OF which I have
been member. It has rarely occurred
that a congress enacting new tariff
law has accomplished much else save
handling the appropriations of the
government. -

CANNON TALKS
ON CONGRESS
Reviews Work Of siixty-first Body and Gives It
Great Credit for Work Accomplished.

Washington, June 26. Speaker Can
non, in a statement just before the
house adjourned tonight, declared that
he had nothing to apologize for as q
member Of the house or as speaker
and he presumed each member could
express a similar statement.
This has been al times, a siren
uous session, said the speaker.
'fVirile men, acting in a great repre-
sentative body, earnest, positive,
sometimes in debate or otherwise, say
that which, if conditions were different,
they would not say. So that, in sharp
contests, when sober, second thought
comes, broad men realize that positive
men do not hold responsible colleagues
who, under the influence of passion or
otherwise, speak in detriment that
which they would not say in moments
when they are COOL We will pass from
Washington to our homes; I shall go
putting behind me the contests through
which the house has passed without
malice. -
The speaker paid more attention to
the legislative work accomplished, re-
ferring only incidentally to the fight
that has been made on the rules of the
house. The reform Of the rules, he
said, had resulted in little good. The
speaker declared that the congress Just
ended had done more and better work
than any congress Of which he had been
member during his 35 years Of SER
vice in the house. After recounting
the legislation enacted, the speaker
said:
This work Of legislation has gone
On quietly but effectively, while those
who view congress from a distance
nave been assuming that the house
was doing nothing but changing its
'ules. The change of rules has con-
'ributed to the pleasure and perhaps
he power Of some individuals in the
louse, but the current of legislation
tself has moved on as usual, with lit /
lie disturbance on account of few new
Methods, and with little advantages :

The secretary OF the high school com

regarding its authority. u was request ed.
however. that IL he made plain that the
change was made not through any per
sonal dislike To Mr. Patterson but because
the committee wants tn show clearly just
how Il feels and intends to act.
Another point OF interest which came out
in the interview was the fact that the meet,
ing was held away from IN" cncmy's camp
