Provision for Factory, in Naval
Bill, Is Lost on Point of
Order.

4 blow at the plan for Government
armor plate factory was struck in the
Senate in the consideration of the ma
val appropriation bill. Senator Oliver
of Pennsylvania whose constituents
are heavily interested in the steel
business, raised a point of order
against the provision in the bill
authorizing an investigation and re-
port on the Government project by
the Secretary Of the Navy. The point
OF order was sustained. It looks now
as IL the only way to get a start on
the Government armor plate factory
plan would be through separate leg
isIation.
Senator Weeks raised a point of
order, which was sustained against
the item authorizing the Secretary of
the Navy to appoint twenty five
cadets from the enlisted men.
One of the committee amendments
to the bill, which was adopted,
authorizes a 100000 drydock at
Norfolk, Va.
An appropriation of 100000 for en-

Dental streets in the city free from the

COMPLETES TWO PORTRAITS
Major Walker Busily Working Pictures
Of EARLY Pioneers

There are on exhibition today in
the window of Howes Jewelry
store oil portraits of Mr.. and Mrs.
M. M. Fry which were finished
this week by Major w. S. Walker
and which mark the completion of
FIVE of the twelve paintings of early
pioneers of the Kootenai Valley
which the Major has planned to
paint. When the twelve portraits
are completed Major Walker plans
to give them to the district if at
that time there is some municipal
building where they can be given
proper care. Thus far Major
Walker has painted portraits of
Capt. George R. Gray, John
Carol, Arthur Bunting and Mr.
and Mrs. Fry. The portrait of
Mrs. Fry is taken from a picture
which was photographed some 20
years ago.
The portraits Major Walker has
made are highly appreciated now
from an artistic standpoint and
their value will be even more con
sidered as time goes by and adds
to their historical worth.

HEAVY GRIND FOR CONGRESS
Now More Than Is, 600 Bills PressalsA
for Consideration

Washington. D. c, January 27--
The almost impossible task that
would confront Congress should it
attempt to act upon all the bills
that come before it is shown by Tie
records of the clerks offices of
the two houses since last April.
In the House the number of
bills introduced has already reached
IL ,26S, while in the Senate, less
than one-fourth as large in member
ship, bills number 1874. With
the exception of few measures
that have been passed, all these
bills are technically now before
Congress. Their number will be
augmented by thousands, it is ex-
pected, before the current session
ends next summer, and another
session of the sixty-third Congress,
beginning next December, will add
many more to the total.
The thousands of measures that
pour in at each session have greatly
increased the work of committees
during the last two years. A great
proportion of the bills do not get
farther than the committee room.
The number of bills passed at SEES
sion seldom exceeds 500, including
special bills of local character.
The large number introduced
thus far is considered the more
noteworthy because but little legis-
lation of general character was
taken up between the first assemb-
ling of Congress April and the
beginning of the regular session
December l.
