FROM WASHINGTON.
APPOrtiOnment Fight Still Hot, and
Result in Doubt.


WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. Z especially
Senator Hale has been 'sgiving it straight"
to his colleagues in the upper legislative
branch on numerous occasions of late.
Matters have come to such q pass there,
with great congestion Of legislation, that
someone has to speak out. The OF her day
he paid little tribute to his own state, in
connection with the debate over the con-
test against Senator Lorimer, of Illinois.
Senator Root, of New York, had made a
very impressive argument against Lorimer
and discussed conditions in the legislature
at Springfield which Senator Hale arose to
say were to him ''most ACKNOWLEDGMENT
sing.
al know something about political
mutations and changes of legislatures"
added Senator Hale, ssand it is matter of
the greatest pride to me-soon to go out
of this Senate, to be succeeded by an
honorable gentleman upon the other side
ofpoiitics, whose character is unimpeached
that never in my state, never in my
legislature has any question ever arisen
involving the charge of corruption. 1t is
q matter of pride to me-" continued the
senior senator, s'that as leave this body 1
can say that for the State of Name"
Mr.. Hale's assertions were heard with
interest, as comment on the charges that
have been current during the winter of
corruption in several legislatures where
the selection of United States senators has
been in progress. These charges for many
years have had to do chiefly with western
legislatures, although there were intima-
gtions about the Massachusetts, legislature,
which were not credited.
A messenger sits at the door OF the
Senate appropriation committee much of
the time these days, which is a sign that
Senator Hale has his colleagues of the
committee hard at work compiling and
revising the big supply bills. The fact
that 1T is his last session OF Congress does
not cause the Maine senator to lag at all
in the discharge of his duty. He could
have gone away to more congenIal eli
mates on the excuse OF impaired health
and left his work for others to do. "a
certain other retiring senators have done.
The Maine senator, however, proposes to
round out his career by keeping actively
in the harness till his term expires.
The Maine men in the House are en-
gaging themselves much with the odds
and ends OF legislation and OF depart
mental work which have to do with the
termination OF q Congress. In a little
more than three weeks there will be an
adjournment sine die. For two years
thereafter the democrats will have ma
jority in the national House, and the demo-
-crats and insurgents q majority in the
Senate.
Just half Of the entire Maine delegation
In Congress retire to private life, because
of the democratic victory in Maize last
September. They are giving special atten-
tion to closing ont their work and to con-
cluding work in behalf OF measures and
appropriations.
Representative Bnrleigh was much dis
appointed over the decision that there

The New York republicans have ap-
parently been defeated in their efforts to
prevent the passage OF an apportionment
bill this winter. And yet there are sus-
picions of deep political plans back of all
that has been going on in the open. Pos
sibly the fight will be carried to the SEN
ate, although that would be unusual. The
Maine men are not unaware of that pros
pect, although more concerned just at
present about the situation in the House.
