Special Correspondence
From National Capital

Washington, D. c., Feb. 11.-From
present indications Senator Borah will
succeed before the close of Congress
in securing the enactment Of the bill
creating Department. of Labor, in
which event President-elect Wilson
will have ten members in his cabinet
This measure has, been before Con.
gress for number of years, and Sem
ator Borah, as chairman of the COM
mittee on Education and Labor has
been active in urging its enactment.
It is of special interest to organized
labor throughout the country.
Senator Brady reached Washing
ton Tuesday, but out Of courtesy to
Senator Perky who had initiated leg
islature upon which he desired to
speak on Wednesday, the new sena-
tor did not take the oath Of office
until Thursday. Within fifteen min
utes after he was sworn in his vote
was required to force the Democrats
to submit to an executive session for
which the Republicans have been
unsuccessively contending for some
time in order to securee the confirm
alton of nominations made by Presi-
dent Taft. The vote to enter execu-
tive session was "a Democrats to Sc
Republicans. The entire time was
consumed in discussion and no vote
on nominations was secured.
Senator Brady was graciously re-
ceived by all the senators and has
made a very favorable impression. By
the action of the Republican caucus
he was appointed chairman of the con
mittee on National Banks, and on
the following important committees
Military Affairs, Agriculture and For
estry, Coast and lnsular Survey, and
Expenditures in the Department Of
Commerce and Labor.
Senator Brady has called on the
President and is rapidly making the
acquaintance of the members of the
cabinet and the various assistant Sc
cretaries in the departments
Senator Perky has introduced a bill
in the Senate designed to correct the
practice of removing causes, from the
State to Federal courts where the
applications to remove is based solely
upon the ground CT diversity of citizen
ship between the parties to the sui
or action.
1.-THE reasoning which sustains thi.
measure" stated Senator Perky in hi
address, "is that a person or corpor
alton which voluntarily comes into
state and deliberately establishes
place of business therein; should be re
quired to submit his or its controver
sizes with citizens OF such state to tn,
determination of its courts wher,
there is no showing Of local prejudic'
against the applicant for removal 70

the case in the majority of jurisdic-
tions In the Union, the parties to the
suit are obliged, when required by
the witnesses, to advance fees and
mileage. It often happens that liti-
giants with cases emitting them to
relief either advance these fees with
great hardship or are in such circum-
stances as not to be able to do SO at
all. This often results in forced, un-
fair settlements, or the abandonment
Of suits, and often in the bringing Of
suits for amounts inadequate to COM
pensate the plaintiff or redress his
injuries, in order that the amount may
be kept below the sum fixed by law
permitting the removal Of causea from
State to Federal courts"
The law as it now stands fosters
in many cases a partial or complete
denial of justice, and thus tends to
undermine society to the extent
that this practice Of removal hampers
our courts in the administration of
their functions to redress wrongs. The
removal in most cases amounts to this,
that the nonresident gains not equal
ity with but advantage over his ad-
versary."
This is one of the most progressive
and practical measures of relief for
the people introduced at this session
Of Congress, and although it will un-
doubtedly be opposed by large cor
porate interests, yet it is believed it
will pass both houses and receive the
signature of the President.
The Secretary of the Interior has
just made favorable report to the com
mittee on Public Lands of the House
on the bill introduced by Representa-
tive French providing for amending
the Idaho Enlarged Homestead Act so
that homesteaders might acquire lands
upon which there is no water avail
able for domestic purposes within a
radius of so miles. The bill is now
with the subcommittee and Mr.. French
Is hopeful of being able to pass the
measure at this session of Congress
In general, the measure is similar to
the act which was passed for the State
of Utah several years ago.
On Thursday of last week, the
President pro tenn of the Senate call
ed upon Senator Perky to occupy the
chair. He presided during a larger
portion of the time during which the
Power bill was under debate. This is
distinction that comes to few sena-
tors who have served so short term
az the iunior senator from Idaho
