Milwaukee, Wis, Aug. 21.-S. 5.
Gregory of Chicago, president of the
American Bar Association, in his an
nual address today before the organi-
zation said in part:
when we reflect that two amend
ments to our national constitution are
now apparently soon to be adopted;
when we consider the radical changes
in their organic law already secured in
several states and contemplated in
others: when we remember marked
innovations in political methods, ac-
complished by the direct primary eX-
tended this year for the first time to
the selection of presidential candi-
dates; it is not necessary to look be-
yond the extensive confines OF our
own land or TO consider changes else
where, scarcely less significant, to es-
tablish the proposition that we live in
an age Of political revolution.
"Now we seem to have reached a
time when the very constitution and
frame of our government is under
critical examination. The necessity
for these safeguards in administration
which have been deemed essential to
the security of rights to life, to liber.
ty and to property is called in ques-
ton. The progressive tide, stayed by
constitutional barriers, threatens now
to sweep them all away"
Mr.. Gregory reviewed the work OF
the recent session of congress and
said that perhaps the most significant
act was the adoption of a joint resolu,
tion proposing to the states an amend
ment to the constitution providing for
the election of members of the senate
by direct vote. He referred to the
Lorlmer case as strengthening the

DEMOCRATS IN
HOUSE WERE
FIIzlzLE 7
MINORITY LEADER MANN DECLARES
They DIDN'T DO ANYTHING But
TALK, WASTE time AND SQUAD,
Bile

Washington, D. c., Aug. 27.-Ineft-
cient, disorganized, unprogressiVe and
inactive were the words used today to
describe the work Of the democratic
house by Republican Leader James R,
Mann, in a statement reviewing tae
accomplishments of the lower cham
Der of the G2nd congress.
Mr.. Mann characterized the demo
cratic majoritys work as stingy and
silly and other OF its acts as pure eN-
travagance.
The boast about economy went by
the board said the minority leader.
The main work in the house on the
democratic side has been constant
boasting OF what they We're going TO
do at the next session.
Il said last December that this ses-
sion of congress would last longer and
Dc less than any other regular ses,
sion of recent years. My forecast
proved correct. This session of con
gress has enacted laws fewer in mum.
ber and of less importance than any
session in recent years. The laws
passed are in the main of little i'm.
portance and generally local in char
acter. The Panama canal bill is the
one of greatest Importance and in the
main that was bill prepared by me
in prior congress.
The claim on reformation Of the
rules has proven farce, That the
house has been inefficient is shown by
the fact that over 200 senate bills
which passed the senate remain un-
acted upon in the house. 1t is a CON
stant boast that the democrats at this
session passed law providing for
publicity of campaign contributions.
Such is not a fact. They only passed
an amendment to the law which had
previously been passed by a repub-
lican house and the part is one relat,
ing to primary campaign expenses
tHat was inserted in the law by the
republicans against the protest of the
democratic side. Somewhat similar
is he bill relating to eight hour labor
which is only an amendment of pre-.
vious law and only made slight
change i'll the provision Of the origi,
nal act
"Practically all the laws Of any i'm.
Eortance passed at this session we're
either bills prepared in previous
congress and left over from lack OF
time to consider or else they were bills
prepared by officials in President
| Tatts administrations
Mr., Mann referred to the public
health laws, the Homestead laws. the
bll! creating a children's bureau. and
others as being within that classified.
ton.
The democrats We're forced to
agree to a parcels post which only a
short time ago they insisted they
would not agree to-" continued the
statement.
Outside of money expended for the
Panama canal, which cannot be con.
s'dered as ordinary expenses, the ap.
preparations for this session of con.
gress exceed those of the last repub.
lican session.
Not only is this so, but the demo.
Gratis have appropriated money in
many places which was pure extrav
agance and where the money was not
needed and have refused to make an
preparations where they are absolute
ly essential for the conduct of good
government"

LEGISLATIVE HAPPENINGS
By Special CORRESPONDENT

Another bill has been introduced
into the House which will interest
the people of Essex county to a con-
siderable extent in that it will effect
theduties salary of the probate judge
of the county raising it from $500 to
$500 which, TO say the least is not any
to much for the work connected with
the office and which under the new
laws are increasing all the time.
The report of the State Highway
Commissioner has been issued and
contains many interesting facts upon
road building and shows some in
teresting things about Essex county.
The following will show the amount
of money expended in the several
towns of the county giving a COM
parison as to the amount of money
expended by the different towns as
one-half of it in each instance except
ing that of Maidstone was raised by
the town less the apportionment from
the 5 per cent tax which isshown in
the tabulation below. This shows
Lunenburg has made the largest
expensation with Bloomfield next
while Maidstone was the smallest
having raised no tax in the town at
all. The comparison

A bill has been introduced by Mr..
Cameron of Norton hoping to re-
tain the municipal court which now
exists in Essex county The reason
for this being that the State Auditor
claims that the court has so small a
jurisdiction at the present that it is
not self supporting and that if the
territory is not enlarged then an
effort will be made to do away with
the court. The members of the
county, and those of the town who
are not favored with change should
get busy with a petition asking that
the territory be enlarged and that
the court be retained. The Essex
County delegation are practically in
favor of the bill as introduced by
Mr.. Norton.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER, s 1912

The election Tuesday resulted III
an overwhelming victory for the
Democratic party. While 1t was
generally believed that with the
Progressive party i'll the field
the Democrats would win, there
were those who hoped that the
break from the Republican ranks
would be so large that Roosevelt
would be elected.
The result, however, shows thai
the people demanded change ano
were not satisfied with the prcscr'
condition of affairs-that they die
want Roosevelt and that Tall
should be relocated to private life.
The result is that Mr.. Wilson has
carried not only the solid south,
but many doubtful states, as well
as several heretofore staunch Re-
publican states. He will have con-
siderable over 800 votes in the
electoral college. \
Not only is Wilson elected, but
the Democrats have increased their
majority in the house of Represent
atives and will also control the
Senate-thus giving that party full
swing in all the affairs Of the ma
ton after March Ist. The Repub
licans must grin and bear it. !"
What the effect of all this will be
upon the nation remains to be seen.
While Republicans have feared
that Democratic control would
create uneasiness and upset the
present good times and era of pros
perity let us hope that such will
not be the case but rather that
common sense and mature judg-
ment will prevail and that those
who will assume control of the ma
ton will prove they are not parti-
sans but rather loyal and patriotic
citizens by administering the
affairs in such a manner as to re-
ceive the Communications Of all.
Let all remember, no matter
what our political preference may
have been, that we are citizens OF
the greatest nation on earth and
that a majority having selected
Mr.. Wilson to guide the ship Of
state all should unite i'll wishing
him a successful and prosperous
administration.
So mote it be

Mr.. Carpenter of CRANKY has in
troduced bill which is receiving
much favor among the farming
people and it is understood that the
committee are favorable to the bill.
The bill provides that the owners of
farms, their children or tenants can

a hunters license but they must Sc
cure license to hunt on other than

Mr.. Cameron, of Norton, is a good
man in the House in more ways than
one not only does the speaker rely
upon him for advice but when things
get dull and it is time to adjourn he
sits so near the presiding officers

per to him for a motion to adjourn
and Oliver is generally there with
the goods.

that they are accomplishing more
than usual in the same length of
time, but careful investigation of
the work done in the same number
of days in this session against the
same number of days in the session
of 1910, shows that the Senate is
ahead this year by five bills, while
the House hasffallen by rs behind
the record of 1910 which indicates
there is a lot of work to be done yet
for there is on a rule about 600 bills
presented each session.
Although it is possible that the
number may be less but not probable.
To be sure the Legislature this session
has been interferred with more
than past sessions, the Presidents
visit and the early adjournment for
other things has shortened the time
for work to some extent.

Mr.. Cameron of Norton by his ex-
perience of last session of the Gen
eral Assembly is one of the men to
whom the speaker refers frequently
for advice and he is on several good
committees.
Although it was generally supposed
that the Guildhall instance was
settled and that Daniel R. Kellam
had retained his seat, yet the action
of Friday morning puts a different
face on the matter and brings the
thing before the House again, Mr..
Martelle of Alburg set the ball q
rolling when he asked that the de.
cision of Thursday be reconsidered
