Congress Has Really
Made Some Progress on
the Legislative Program
Correspondence of The Forum.)

Kansas City overlooked, is the fact
that the labor unions look upon the
eight hour day as q maximum, not an
irreducible minimum. Therefore they
have come to the rescue of the clerks,
who having a seven hour day are Ger
tainly a better example to private
employers, than they would be If they
went back to eight hours.
Really the question is very small
one to have made such, a big stir. Eight
hours would not particularly increase
the amount of service the government
gets out of the clerks. The overtime
which the clerks and heads OF bureaus
now give cheerfully though they get
no extra compensation would not be
given so cheerfully, on the contrary
the clerks would begin to move
through their friends for extra pay and
the government would in the end be
the loser.
The house has not reached the big
bills of the session, the enlarged ap-
preparations for the army and navy.
Two army bills have been reported out,
the senate and in the house, but the
navy bill remains a dark secret. Hear
ings are still continuing and naval
cheifs are massing artillery to bring
down the little navy congressman.
The regular army is enlarged on
paper by each of the army bills, but it
is worthy of comment that few more
men will be recruited, unless the rate
of pay is increased and this will cause
revisal of the estimates of the cost
of the measure.
OF civil legislation the house has
passed scarcely enough to be worth
mention. The senate has agreed to
two bills of more than ordinary
Importance, the Philippine bill and the
water power bill.
The house has also passed water
power bill which applies only to pub
lie lands. The senate, or Shields bill,
takes in navigable streams ouslde OF
government land, makes provision for
the leasing of water powers that may
be developed as the result of the Unit
ed States improving navigation.
The bill encountered strong hostility
on the part of the so-called progress
sive senators and lost their votes, but
it held the old liners in both parties
and passed A to 20.
Out of this bill it is expected that
great water power development will
take place. The opponents of the bin
admit this, but fear that the bill has
been framed to give existing electric
combinations monopoly OF new
source of manufacturing energy. Much
depends on the states themselves, how
ever, as much of the business done will
be intrastate and the states are charg
ed with the duty and clothed with
power to regulate interstate charges
and rates. The intrastate commerce
commission will regulate the rest.
This being all of the major program
of legislation that has been even
touched it is plain that congress has a
long hard summer ahead of it, with
the appropriation bills, ship purchase
bill, the tariff commission bill, the
anti dumping bills, and the other
industrial bills that the administration
is anxious or willing to pass.

fact, one of his suspects was the

arrest followed.
When young Sanvold was question
ed, he first declared he had purchased
the clothes in Fargo. The label on
inside pocket, however, disproved this
contention. Then he insisted he had
purchased them at Ada, but the fact
that only one merchant handles the
particular kind OF clothing stolen, left
the story without support.
Arraigned before a justice of the
peace, the lad was held to the district
court. In an effort to save the boy
from the reformatory, an information
charging insanity was filed against
him, but the county board of insanity

Sanvold then went to the district
court, entered plea Of guilty and is
now in the Minnesota reformatory.
During the interval the lad had kept
the clothes in his home.

about to board Great Northern train
for Fargo, he little dreamed that the
burglary of Great Northern boxcar

! but HI. H. Hartmann, special agent
of the Great Northern railroad, had
been looking for just such opportunity,
and when he confronted the young
man with the charge, conflicting
stories related by the accused couldn't
help him materially.
For over a year and a half, Sanvold,
who had stolen the checkered suit,
a blue serge suit, and 100 cigars, in
his raid on the boXcar, was able to re-

Washington, D. c.. March 1S.-The
amount of noise made over the Nc
Lemore and Gore resolutions has been
sufficient to obscure the fact that con-
gress has been steadily plugging away
on other matters and has really made
some progress.
The predictions made early in the
session that congress would adjourn
before the national conventions. how
ever, have gone glimmering. There is
no possibility of it.
The house of representatives has put
in all it's time on appropriation bills
and thus far has completed and passed
only one, the postoftice bill. This bill
is however the largest appropriation
bill ever passed by any congress. 1t
carries $S20.509,S79. ....
Two questions were uppermost in
the minds of members in considering
this bill. the railway pay amendment
and the status of rural free delivery
carriers. ...
AS to the former the bill carries the
Moon rider for the substitution of the
space for the weight system of pay
ing for the carriage of the mails. The
matter has been before congress for
years and has never been settled. The
mere fact that it is in the house draft
be stricken out in the senate and dis
appear in conference. This was the
fate of the whole postoffice bill at the
close of the last congress. The two
houses could not agree over this and
the rural carrier matter. During the
night of the last session the bill
temporarily was mislaid and at 10
o'clock a. m. March 4. resolution re-
newing the former appropriation was
hurriedly passed.
The rural delivery question was set
tied as far as the house bill is con-
cerned by giving the postmaster gen.
eral $4.000.000 more than he asked for
this purpose and directing him how to
use it.
The house also tried to limit
his activities in opening auto routes
and consolidating wagon routes in the
rural districts. The senate is more
strongly for the rural carriers than
the house so there is hardly any doubt
the enlarged appropriation will stay in.
The senate may go further and recog-
nize the back pay claim of the carriers
for overtime. This amounts to about
100000
The house has entered upon serious
consideration of the legislative execu-
tive and judicial bill which carries only
one troublesome item, the Borland
rider to establish the eight hour day in
the government service. The whole
city of Washington is fighting for the
present schedule of seven hours The
capital is much disturbed, claiming
that the whole social and economic

The North Dakota Agricultural

over the state recently. This notice
has been drawn, however, by a series
of unfortunate events that might lead

through the past years the college

Such view cannot be maintained
