CONGRESS- PASSES AGAIN
MILEAGE GRAFT BILL.

Wash.ngtcn.-By a decisive vote the
house yesterday afternoon agreed TO
the senate amendment continuing the
mileage graft of 20 cents mile EACH
way for senators and congressman.
The law as it now stands, and as ii
has stood since the days when men,
bers of congress came here in stage
coaches, means that these. members
will receive 20 cents each way for
every mile they travel when there is
no extra session of congress and 80
cents a mile when extraordinary ses-
sions are called.
In the senate both Senators Sim
mons and Overman voted for the 20
cents a mile amendment. Over in the
house, however, Representative Claude
h:tchin was the only North Carolinian
to vote for the senate amendment.

SECRETARY BRYAN PUT FOOT
ON A BIG GRATING SCHEME.

4
Washington, July There will be no
more tips for bell-hops, no daily bath,
creased trousers, laundry, flowers for
friends. dead or alive, shoe shines for
representatives of the State Depart
ment if Secretary Bryan nas to b. K.
/ the bills.
That is the edict formulated in the
mind of Mr.. Bryan, and to be handed
Gown the line to all sub-ordinates,
All personal items will be stricken
from the expense accounts of travellers
for the State Department.
This crusade was started several
weeks ago, and it is sweeping like
wild fire. Actual expenses for sub
sistence and transportation" are all
that will get by the keen eyed audi.
tors now.
The Secretary of State has decided
t. eliminate the laundry, baths, tips,
pcrterage, tailoring, flowers. newspa-
4Gers, shoe-shines. shaves, drinking wa
ter, and -haircuts out of the expense
accounts of the travelling employees OF
his Department. Hereafter, while Mr.
Bryan is at the head Of the State De-
partment, no more bills for personal
expenses can be approved by chiefs OF
bureaus and heads of commissions.
That is the order already formulated
in the mind of Secretary Bryan.
The State Department is given more
latitude in the expenditure of money
appropriated for its various services
than any other Department of the Gov
eminent because of the peculiar ma
ture of its work. Rules and reguIa-
tions for the making out of the ex-
pense accounts of persons connected
Sith the State Department have not
been filed with the Comptroller of the |
Treasury. There is but little check
on employees who travel for that De-
partment. 1t is estimated that within
the last decade several millions of dol |
lars have been spent or accounted for |
81 least, by State Department officials
for laundry" tailoring. baths
newspapers" drinking water" "shoe
shines" and ':shaves."
One expense account handed in by
q Government employee, who had been
IN four months trip, contained al
item of $50 for baths. A bath was
taken every day for four months at the
rate of so cents day. Many days Of
he 120 days this man was out he never
left the train.
Another expense account included
IN item for flowers for a dead friend
of the employe-
One account charged up for having
trousers creased" three or four times
IN a short trip, and "45 cents for
water in New York"
Laundry. $3.50 appeared in the ex-
jense account of a man who made a
,ne-day trip for department.
These are the sort of expense ac-
counts that Secretary Bryan and his
assistants will strike out before they
each the final auditor. !

GOVERNOR BLEAsE,s DEFEAT.
Why He Filled Governors Chair and
Reason for Downfall.

Reason for Downfall.
It has never been concealed from ne
or from our readers that Governor
Blease's rise to dominant place in
South Carolina politics was the result
IT extraordinary conditions. He was
nominated for Governor four years ago
through antagonism toward his leading
opponent as prohibitionist. This
factor brought Mr.. Blease and retained
for him considerable support. espec-
tally in the Charleston section. which
would not otherwise have been his.
Then he set about gaining for him
self the full leadership of the faction
or virtual party identified with Senator
tiiman; and he was successful to q
81 eat extent. Senator Tillman openly
repudiated him just before the conclu-
sion OF his denomination campaign, but
without much seeming effect. Govern
or Blease had substituted "Bleaseism''
for the "Tillmanism'' which, having
completed a very necessary work
whatever attendant crudities, was
about to pass into the history of the
State, Mr.. Tillman denied. and with
excellent reason, that f'BIeaseism'' :
was either revival or legitimate
successor of "Tillmanism" But Mr.,
Blease made many people think thai
it was. He certainly stirred up and
solified behind himself all the linger-
ing rancor he could. He certainly
had a good deal of help from his OPP
ponents and without doubt sometimes
did indefensible things to invite help
full denunciations. Unwisdona appar-
ertly implying lack of respect for a
large mass of voters gave these Yot-
crs much excuse, if not actual justifi- |
cation. when in perfectly natural re-
chosen not to be. AS special factors |
he was helped not only by the renom-
nation custom, which heightened the
appearance of class and factional per-
secutiOn in fighting him desperately,
hut also by the Burns detective fasco,
which most of his opponents we're far
from treating with the fairness that
they should. In the campaign just
Iast, however, the opposition showed
Judgment. 1t had learned the lesson
ct last. And SO, purged primary rolls
doubtless playing some part along
with the popularity of Senator Smith
among the farmers, Governor Blease
has been defeated for the Senate. 1t
is not unkind even at this momeE
to say that, unlike Mr.. Tillman, he ha
never stood for anything solid or con-
structive. If he regains political eml
renee it will be as sort of leader
different from what he
las been. We should like to see this
realized, for he possesses
distinct gifts. With further; reference
to the future, we note as pleasing
augury that the victors do not crow

people more or less sympathetic to-
ward Mr.. Blease knew they would

Mr.. R. H. Peck, of Spokane, will
close the series with a lecture on:
