Nevertheless the president’s party, being in the majority at both ends of the capitol, has either taken the credit or been forced to as- sume responsibility for what was done, even when aided by Democratic votes. Raiiroad Rate Regulation. The keynote was struck unmistak- ably in the message which congress re- ceived at the opening of thé session. namely the insistence on federal fixing of interstate railroad rates as well as the prevention of rebates, or any kind of special favors. Rate bills of vari- ous kinds and descriptions were promptly introduced in both senate and house but, the house , majority being under better discipline, the bill was more promptly formulated there which ‘was approved at the White House. It was fathered by Representative Hep- burn, as chairman of the committee on interstate commerce. It was so modi- fied in the committee as to come before the house without Democratic opposi- tion and after a few days of perfunc- tory discussion, it was passed on Feb. 8 by the almost unanamous vote of 346 to 7, the seven opponents all be- ing Republicans. As passed it gave the interstate commerce commission full power to regulate interstate freight tariffs without express recognition of the rights of appeal in the courts. This however, only the foundation of the law that was to go to the statute book. In the senate the Hepburn bill was destined to run the gauntlet of flerce opposition from a conservative faction of the Republicans, led by Aldrich and Toraker, and become the football of personal and party bickerings over & period of three months. The main point of the dispute was the question of a broad or narrow court review pro- vision, and at one time after the presi- dent’s political and personal enemy, Tillman, had been placed in charge of the measure there was a tacit coalition LOTS ON EASY PAYMENTS For the man or woman of moderate means we are offering lots in the third addition on easy monthly payments.

Bemldfl between the president and the minor- ity. Later however, the president ac- cepted the compromise Allison amend. ment upon which his party associates had agreed, vesting jurisdiction in the circuit courts to enjoin, set aside, an- nu! or suspendany order of the commis- sion on appeal of the carrier concerned. It was at this time that the Democratic leaders charged the president with bad faith on the strength of representations said to have been made through ex- Senator Chandler. Finally the bill with sixty-seven amendments passed the senate May 18 by a vote of 71 to 8. Still further’ changes were made in conference therenfter. The senate conferrces held out stub- bornly against the house proposal to drop the clause placing pipe lines under federal control. As this was finally agreed to by senate and house, the pipe lines are to be regarded as commen carriers, but are not prohibited from carrying their own products. Railroad and railway mail employes are ‘ex- empted from the anti-pass amendment, ‘Investigations and Inspections. In both branches bllls were intro- duced early, authorizing investigations of the railroad monopolfes and a com- bination of these known as the Tiil- man-Gillespie-Campbell measure was passed by the house Jan. 23 and though signed by the president, was sharply criticiged by him for not carry- ing funds and due authority. - The IRt money wws appropriated later. and un. der this authority the interstate com: merce commission has already un. earthed a yvast amount of graft and crookedness' fn rallroad and oil indus- tries. ‘The pure food bill which passed the senate Feb. 21, 03 to 4, was also in line with this federnlizing tendency.

Uncle Sam’s Big Expense Account. Just before the close of the session 1t becameapparent that the total of ap- propriations to carry on the govern- ment for the next fiscal year would be somewhere in the neighborhood of $000,000,000. At this writing the exact figures have not been officially reported. It is customary for each party to in- sert In the record a week or two after the end of the session a statement of the appropriationsand its own explana- tion thereof. The total recalls the out- cry that was made only fifteen years ago, when theFifty-first congress under Reed’s speakership appropriated a lit- tle over $1,000,000,000 in the two years of its existence. Replying to the eriti- cism that it was “a million dollar con- gress” Reed said: “It is a billion dollar country.” Even the Fifty-fifth congress which covered much of the Spanish ‘war expenses, spent only $1,553,000,000 incits two years. Hence, at the pace set by this first session, the Fifty-ninth congress is certain to outstrip all its predecessors in the matter of public expenditures. To the criticism of the minority the dominant party replies that the country has grown in all di- rections. As a matter of fact, the numerous investigations and federal inspections provided for have added largely to the cost of government. The approximate amounts carried by W. R. Baumbach, President. C. W.
