in his power to subdue lawless-

der and in the performance of
such duties he was fearless, open

the respect and confidence of the

WORK STINCY AND

Minority Leader Says They Have
Made Record Of Doing Little
at Great Cost
Associated Press Dispatch.

Associated Press Dispatch.
Washington, Aug. 27.-"Ineff.-
cient, dsorganized, unprogressive
and inactive" were words used today
to describe the work of the Demo-
cratic House by Republican Leader
James r. Mann, Mann character
ICED some of the Democratic major
ity work as stingy and silly and
other of its acts as pure extrava-
gance,
The main work in the House on
the Democratic side has been con-
stant boasting OF what they we're 60
ing TO do at the next session" said
the minority leader This session
OF Congress has enacted laws fewer
in number and of less Importance
than any other session in recent
years. The Panama Canal bill is the
one of greatest importance and in
the main that Vas a bill prepared
by me in a prior Congress.
"The claimed 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 on in the House.
THE provision for publicity of
campaign contributions and for eight
hour labor are only amendments to
previous laws. Practically all the
laws of any Importance passed at
this session were either bills pre-
pared in a previous Congress and
left over for lack OF time 70 consider
or else they were bills prepared by
officials in President Taft's admin
jstration'
Mann referred to the public
health laws, the homestead laws, the
bill creating a children's bureau and
Others as being within that classi
ication IN NJ &.
1.-The Democrats were forced u
agree to a parcels post, which ONLY
a short time ago they insisted they
| would not agree to-" the statement
continues They are entitled to nl
credit for it. - H SF5
"Outside OF money expended IN
the Panama canal, which cannot bt
considered as ordinary expenses, tn.
appropriations for this session o
Congress exceeded those for the las
Republican session, Not only is this
so, but the Democrats have appro
7riated money in many places where
it was pure extravaganza and wher
the money was not needed, and hay'
refused to make appropriation
where they are absolutely essentia
for the conduct OF good govern
ment."
