WASHINGTON LETTER.

The special session of Congress in its
second week has taken up its legislative
work with great vigor and the Democrats
are encouraged 10 believe that much work
will be accomplished during the legis-
latiye session. By vote of 2o6 to rs the
bill proposing Constitutional amend
ment providing for the direct election Of
United States Senator's was passed. Only
one Democrat opposed the measure.
The other fifteen voting against it were
Republicans. The Canadian reciprocity
bill has also been favorably reported
Mr.. Underwood, chairman of the ways
and means committee announced that the
free list tariff measure will be reported
before the end of fhe week. Among i'm
portant bills introduced was one to regu-
late the traffic in cold storage products,
another to increase the prestige of the
American merchant marine, third to
regulate the issuance of injunctions and
another bill to change the date of the 10.
auguration Of the President to the last
Thursday in April. This last bill has
often been up in Congress and it is an
effort to extend the term of the short
session and to fix the date of inauguration
which has become national pageant,
attracting hundreds of thousands Of
people, to time OF yearof fairer weather
itt nsthe proverbially cold and stormy 4th
of March. 1t is probable that before this
is in print the Canadian reciprocity
measure will have passed the House.
The Democratic leaders have fully
decided to go into the agricultural
schedule and make important changes
which they demanded during the tariff
discussions of last year. Other schedules
not included in the general legislative
program it is expected will be brought
before the House probably during this
month. The success of the House in
passing the bill providing for the popular
election of Senators has had an exhilara-
ting influence on the minds of the
majority leaders, and they are hopeful
that much important legislation may be
enacted.
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1911-04-21

Up to the present time the Democratic
ways and means committee Of the House
had not contemplated much more than q
revision Of the wool and cotton schedules,
but owing to their successes This week,
they realize that they have time fol
additional tariff revision. Mr. Under
wood, chairman of the committee, is Of
the opinion that the session will be com
pleted earlier than has been anticipated.
1t is expected that the ways and means
committee will take up the woolleu
schedule of the tariff bill without wait.
ing for the report of the tariff board, in.
asmuch as it is understood that this
board will not be able to furnish infor-
nation concerning the woollen schedule
during the present session. The possible
revision of this schedule came up in the
Senate on Thursday, when Senator
Warren, whom the late Senator Dolliver
characterized as the greatest shepherd
since Abraham" offered a number Of
protests and memorials deprecating re-
vision of the wool schedule The
Wyoming Senator represents wool
growing state, but he said that these
memorials do not protest against ultimate
revision, but simply prayed Congress tc
defer action until proper information
could be received as basis for scientific
revision.

Senator Cummins has opened long
expected attack on the somewhat dilatory
national monetary commission, that re-
fnge OF lame dncks,'':: as ii has been
called. The Iowa Senator introduced a
bill requiring this commission to present
its final report at the beginning of the
next session IN December, and this bill
provides for the repeal of the law Great
ing the commission and removing it from
the payroll as soon as its report is sub
mitted. The commission, it will be re-
membered. consists of eighteen members.
Seven of them no longer draw their
salaries as Senators and two of them were
former members of the House of Repre-.
|sentatives This is why it is called the
''lame duck" refuge. To some of them,
like Senators Aldrich and Hale, the
salary which they draw as members of the
monetary commission is matter of no
great importance, but the others who
draw the same salary as member of Con
gress are Burrows. Teller. Money, Flint
and Talinferro- This commission was
organized in 1905 Senator Cummius
says that he believes 1t is time a definite
financial plan should be submitted to Con-
gress. tiat he is not opposed to any OF
the members Of the committee, but that
be thought sufficient time had elapsed for
positive results.
