by the combined Democrats and in

passed the reciprocity bill, the wool

schedule and the chemical schedule.
We submitted for ratification the con.

election of senators of the
United States; we passed bill for
the publication of campaign expenses
before the election. We liberalized
the rules, making the committe elec.
tive, by the House; we passed reso-
luton to admit New Mexico and Ari.

other bills of more or less import
ance. It is record Of which we
may well be proud and on which we
will sweep the country In 1912.
