Facts About the Present session.

,Sixty-second Congress, which
will not meet in regular session
until next December.
Principal purposes to pass the
Mccall bill, carrying into effect
the reciprocity agreement recent
~ concluded with Canada.
Session made necessary by the
action of a small minority of the
Senate-composed in about equal
parts of regular and insurgent
.Republicans-who prevented ac-
ton on the bill at the concluding
session of the SiXty-frst Con-
greSs, which ended March 4.
Reciprocity bill will certainly
be passed, as the Democratic
party is committed to the mea-
sure and in the vote on the bill
~ the last House contributed
nearly twice as many ayes" as
Mr.. Taft's own party.
President Taft also may favor
the passage Of an act providing
for permanent Tariff Commits
sion, which will be received with
favor by majority of the Demo-
Gratis.
Democrats have a large ma
jOrity in the new House, with
Representative Champ Clark, of
Missouri, as Speaker, while the
Republican majority in the SEN
ate is reduced to eight.
Special session is not limited
in scope, and either House may
attempt legislation not mention
ed in the Presidents recommen-
dations, and in time the session
is limited only by the opening of
the regular session in December.
Without the approval of the
President, and with the probabil-
ity of his veto, the Democrats
will probably undertake a revis
ion of the Hoolen, cotton, textile
and steel schedules of the Payne
Aldrich act.
Democratic majority in House
Will also pass the constitutional
amaadment providing for the
election of Senators by direct
vote of the pople.
House will pass bill admitting
Arizona and New Mexico as
GtaCes, and will present it to the
Senate for action.
President Taft may be asked
Tor further official explanation o.
his action in mobilizing troops
along the Mexican border.
The political complexion of the
Congress convened in eXtraordi-
nary session to-day is as fol-
lows: !

GOVERNMENT SHIPS AND CANAL SERVICE.

Senator CummlnS ls preparing %

vitalized the railroad rate regulation
bill when he insisted upon the inter-
state commerce commission having
power to suspend a rate pending

government steamers TO ply in the
Panama canal service for the purpose
of securing for the people that compe-
titoin in freight rates which it has been
hoped the canal would produce. 1t is
government ownership Of common car
riers pure and simple but 1t has its
excuse in the fact that these govern

would be convertible into army trans
ports in time of war.
Cummins knows as everybody knows
that unless the government maintains
real competition in rates via the canal

consulting the reports that on Monday.

legislative representatives. Each re-
cugrine election has found the district
registering anew ito coincidence In HIM,
and he has improved every opportun-
ity to demonstrate that the confidence
was not misplaced.
In tho recent special session Mr..
Hubbard particularly stood tho test OF
loyalty to. progressive principles un-
der the most trying circumstances.
There was in hts district wide dis
parity of opinion concerning the enect
Of the Canadian trade agreement on
the great farming industry Of Iowa
Many men believed that 1t would prove
inimical and vigorously expressed tnat
belief. A timid man would have fai-
tered; but Mr.. Hubbard ts a man OF
moral courage who, without vehemence
or buster, speaks and votes his con-
victions. His support Of the Canadian
reciprocity agreement, under the cir
cumstances, won for him praise and
admiration even from those who dis
agreed with him.
Mr.. Hubbard believed that the Ca
madam agreement offered an opening
for breaking down the whole system OF
discrimination and extortion practiced
in the name of the high protective tar

lie would have preferred that the break
should have come at some other point
in the wall and that duties enjoyed by
Unfortunately protected manufacturers
should have been hrst subjected to the
process OF revision. But with states
manlike vision he perceived that any
opportunity to compel downward re-
vision must be seized when presented
He believed, moreover. that reciprocity
was good International ethics. that 1t
involved good will between neighbors
on the same continent who speak the
same language, have the same high
standard Of living. and whose natural
interests are identical. He voted for
it, therefore, without equivocation or
apology.
Having voted for reciprocity, Mr..
Hubbard strove with all his power 10
reduce admittedly iniquitous schedules
OF the present tariff law which bear
most heavily on his own constituents
He voted for the matured measures OF
tariff revision presented during the
special session. and did not hesitate 10
60 on record in favor of passing them
over the veto of a republican president.
It is not his fault. nor the fault OF men
like him. that President Tafts three
year profession OF devotion to tariff re-
vision downward has eliminated IN
selecting duties on farm products as
the only duties which have been dis
turbed. He has stood consistently for
the reduction of all duties to the basis
of justice to the consuming public.
Middle western constituencies nova
days demand that their representa-
tiyes shall represent them in their In
terests, and that they shall not merely
register the will OF private individuals
and interests who have legislative axes
to grind. The result OF this demand
has been the appearance at Washing
ton of a new and better type of con-
gresham. who owe no allegiance ex-
cept to the voters who send them
there. OF this type Mr.. Hubbard Is
most conspicuous example, and his
record in congress is one in which the
Eleventh district may rejoice.

COMING DOWN THE POLE.

In Burlington also they are begin
ming to wonder what they are going
to do with the Moon law. The saloons
there are numerous, paying a license
Of 5000 each and they are operating
under petition Of consent that still
has some time to run. But when that
petition expires. IL the decisions OF the
lower courts are sustained. they Will
have to come down to about one-third
Of the present number Of saloons But
Burlington has tried obedience to laws
and 1t has found it both profitable and
pleasant. For years the mulct law was
violated. but when they did place
themselves under It's provisions, the
experience was satisfactory for all con-
cerned. Burlington will find 1t just as
pleasant to avail itself Of the addi-
tional restrictions that have been
placed on the business. In Cedar Rap
ids we seem to be just as happy with
thirty-two saloons as we were with
sixty before. 1t Is all a mere matter of
getting used to it, When there is a sa-
loon for every 1000 people no one needs
to so thirsty.
