Washington, Aug. 22.-The first ses-
sion OF the Sixty second congress
ended today and Immediately the
exodus OF members began. President
TAFT Joined with several hundred tired
legislators In departing and tonight
Ofhcial Washington is comparatively
deserted. All out going trains bore
congressman homeward after being
together 121 days and setting the live
Hest pace OF legislative session in
years.
The adjournment was featurless, de-
spite the strenuous activity gone be-
fore. The president vetoed the cotton
tariff revision bill. The veto went only
TO the house, in accordance with the
custom, and was received with laugh
ter by Democrats and applause by Re-
publicans.
Underwood formally thanked the few
Republican members who voted with
the Democrats and as they had not the
necessary thirds majority to pass
the bill over the veto he merely moved
printing the veto, and reference of 1t to
the ways and means committee. The
house agreed to this course.
With the committee the matter will
rest until the whole subject OF tariff
revision is renewed at the regular ses-
sion, which convenes on December
4th.
Everybody was in a happy mood in
both houses President Taft spent a
half hour at the capitol. The usual
vaudeville feature of the closing was
missing, though a few in the house

Sherman and Clark delivered valedic-

will shown during the session and be-
speaking health and happiness during

Washington, Aug. 22.-Champ Clark,
speaker of the house of representatives,
in a review of the work of the first
session Of the sixty~second congress,
declared that the Democratic party
set a good example for Democrats
everywhere, and that the party had re-
deemed every promise it made in the
campaign OF 1910. when the Democrats
wrested control of the house from the
Republicans.
AT this session the Democrats have
made record which has surprised our
friends and dumbfoundered our en-
emies," said Speaker Clark. 1T has
put heart and hope into Democrats
everywhere. The extra session was ex-
traordinary, not only in the sense of
being a special session called by the
president, but also in the amount and
quality of the work done in the house
surgents, and the combined Democrats
and Republicans insurgents in the
senate and especially blythe unanimity
OF action developed by the house Dem
ocrats.
TT was predicted freely, vociferously,
enthusiastically and confidently by the
stand pat press and orators that we
would go to pieces. On that account
and by reason Of that hope they re-
joiced that the extra session of con-
gress was called, so that we might
go to pieces at the earliest possible
.date. But we have sorely disappointed
all their expectations. They even set
the date when we would go to pieces,
which was the day Of the Democratic
caucus on January 10. but unfortu-
nately for them in that caucus every
thing was done unanimously. They
