BREACH WIDENS IN
REPUBLICAN RANKS

BY Representative Swagef Sherley, OF
Kentucky, Democratic Leader.
Copyright, 1911, by the United
Press)
WASHINGTON ID. C. March 49,
Perhaps the notable political feature
of the session of congress just closed
has been the continual widening of
the breach between the regulars and
the progressives among the Republic
cans, coupled with the sharp break
between the executive and members of
both factions whereby he has been
left practically alone in support Of
those measures which he desired to
put through as his own party legis-
lation.
Since the beginning of the session
there has been continual conflict
of interest between the leaders of the
Republican majority In the house, and
the White House, which has gradually
spread throughout the whole Repub-
lican organization.
This was particularly illustrated in
the situation that developed with re-
gard to President Taft's Canadian
reciprocity agreement. The opposi-
ton to this administration measure
was so strong that it fused into a
common camp the widely separated
wings of the Republicans In the
house. progressives from Iowa, and
hide-bound regulars from Pennsyl-
vania,
Meanwhile there developed the re-
markabfe situation of a Democratic
minority in the house. standing al
most unanimously for this treaty.
though advanced as Republican
measure by Republican president.
In the senate the closing empha-
sized the need of reform in procedure
there. Evidently a rules revolution
similar TO that which reformed the
house last year. would have a good
effect While it has been the con-
slant cry in the house that the indi-
vidual member is hampered and UNI
able 10 exercise his rights. the fact
that in the senate a single individual
can indefinitely delay and dictate leg
1slation shows a still more crying
need for reform.
This session of congress has been
busy one, and an effective one in
constructive legislation. but the next
congress, with a true downward re-
vision of the tariff certainty, Will
far exceed It in constructive and policy
shaping importance.

consideration of specified classes of
legislation has so reduced the time
allowance for passage of the annual
government supply measures as to
make one of these three propositions
inevitable.
But despite the serious handicap of
lack of time the House of Represen-
tatives during the session just closed
has accomplished a vast amount of
work. AS a result OF hard labor by
the appropriation committees. SO far
as the House is concerned, adjourn
ment might have been taken several
days ago, without hampering the ad-
ministrative and departmental func-
tions of the government
House Has Been Industrious.
In addition to putting through the
thirteen great appropriation meas
ures, the House has accomplished
some notable work. Among these
measures deserving of special men,
ton are:
The tariff board bill: the departure
in policy included In the approval of
an appropriation of 100000 for
beginning the fertilization of the Pan
anna canal: the bill authorizing the
issuance of three per cent. Panama
canal bonds, without the circulating
tenance of the market price of the
already issued two per cents; the
passage of the largest canal construc-
ton appropriation yet authorized: the
creation of a fidelity division in the
treasury department and the adop-
ton of the policy that hereafter the
government shall bond its own en-
ployes: the $4,000. 900 plan for a me-
mortal In the national capital in
memory of Abraham Lincoln.
Speaking from an experience of Is
years In the national Legislature, II
Is no exaggeration for me to say that
the Congress Just ended was one of
the busiest, If not the busiest, ] ever
knew, and resulted in the passage by
the House of n quantity of lesisla-
ton affecting practically every phase
of our national life, and every va
riety Of human endeavor.

HE CALLS ON HER MOTHER

le-e-tie young for the job. But never

one win help you to tho best of their

groHned the youth inwsrdly.
AS matter of fact, Freddy Butler,
though young and untried along
paths of Jurisprudence. was no pauper.
An astute father had left him with a
sufficient amount of the worlds goods
to do with as he pleased and still not
touch his principal. The girl stenog
rapher in the Frick building had at
tracted his notice---and thereafter her
income was perceptibiy swollen by the
patronage OF Blackstone's youngest
disciple. Imaginary clients demand

tested Butler, shifting uneasily in his
chair.

other. You'll have 10 meet him. His
