TUESDAY, MARCH 4,.1919 BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE REPUBLICAN SENATORS TALK 750 MILLION RAILROAD APPROPRIATION TO DEATH (Continued. from Page One.) i majority, Senator Lodge said the effect of these'resolutions was to notify President Wilson and the peace conference that as now planned the League of Nations constitution was not satisfactory to the senate. Retw:n of Railroads f Senator Moses of New Hampshire, republican, issued a state- ment. today declaring the failure of President Wilson to call a special session of congress to pass among other things the army appropriation bill said it would mean that a half. million homes in America must continue to see their sons held for military service on foreign :soil. x 4 -y +It-may be wrong to impute motives to President Wilson, but. there are many senators;who believe that President Wilson’s re- fusal. is due to his desire:to ovcupy the center of the stage,” said Senator Moses. { Galleries Crowded €xowded'galleries followed proceedings in both houses. - Stand- ing reom-was at a premium. ° It was said that never before had there been so large an attendance at a closing session. Scarcely a‘dogen senators remained!in the chamber during the closing hours. There was little evidence of senatorial dignity in the scenes in the cloak and committbe rooms, where members slept, some of them flat on their backs oh table-tops, and others huddled together on assembled chairs, The small supply of army blankets soon was exhausted. i Passes Into History. : The ‘Sixty-fifth or great war con- &ress passed into history today with final taps of the gavel by Vike-Presi- dent Marshall and Speaker Clark at Doon.’ Failure of.scores of important bills gave promise of early convening for reconstruction legislation’ of the new. congress in extraordinary: ses- sion, in Which contro] passes from the democrati¢ party to the republicans. Unusual scenes of confusion in the final rush to complete its work ac- companied the closing hours of con- gress, in which President Wilson, just back from France in his room otf the senate chamber, bastily signed many last-moment measures. . Stupendous was the record of the Congress, which carried the nation in- to and through the war and which had been in almost continuous session since it was called by President \ son into extraordinary session April 2, 1917, to declare’ war against Ger many. It appropriated about $60,000,- 000,000, authorized $25,000,000,000 in bonds, and enacted countless meas- ures for prosecuting the war and of domestic import. The new congress will take up the limitless task of re- construction problems, ratification of the peace treaty and other vital ques- tions, probably immediately after the return of President Wilson from his second visit to France. Special features of the Sixty-fifth congress wére many addresses by President Wilson, including those rec- omending war.with Germany and Aus- tria, that of January 8, 1918, enunciat- ‘{ng hig famous fourteen principles of peace, and those endorsing woman puffrage, announcing -the armistice terms imposed upon Germany last No- vember and, his recent address detail- ing ‘accomplishments of his work at Paris. Three Sessions. There were three sessions of the —————_—__—_——. WHAT STAN Ren congress. _ The first, extra session met April 2, 1917, following shortly after the turbulent and successful senate filibuster on the administra- tion armed ship bill which marked the close of the Gixty-fourth congress, The dramatic night, address ‘of President Wilson to urge war with: Germany, which was promptly declared, marked the opening of the-extra session, call- ed but a few weeks after the presi- dent’s inauguration tor a second term. The session closed October * 1917, lasting 188 days.’ The second session lasting 354 days and the longest in tho history of American government— began Dec. 3, 1917, and adjourned No- vember 21, last. The third atid final session which ended today began De- cember 2 last, and was the statutory short session of 93 days. Substantial democratic majorities in, both senate and house since President Wilson's inauguration six years ago now have passed. In the new con- gress, the senate will have 49 repub- cans and 47 democrats and the house 228 republicans and 193 @emocrats, 1 socialist, 2 independents and one pro- hibitionist. Terms Expire. _Many veterans in both houses re- tiged with today’s adjournment. In the senate these included Senators Saulsbury of Delaware, president pro tempore; Lewis of Ilinois, democratic whip; Shafroth of Colorado, Thomp- son of Kansas., Hardwick of eGorgia, Hollis of’ New Hampshire, and Varda- man of Mississippi; Goff of West Virginia, Smith of Michigan and Weeks of ‘Massachusetts, Among prominent representatives whose’ ser- vices ended were Miss Jeanette Ran- kin of Montana, the first women elect- ed to the house; Meyer London of New York, sacialist; Swager Sherley of Kentucky, chairman of the appro- oS DARDIZED BRANDS MEAN TO CON.

Partisan politics, although it. caus- eq the-mandate for change from dem- ocratic ‘to republican control of con- gress, was largely buried during the war period, war measures being ha! ily rushed through with big bi-pa sau majorities. Many acute contro- versies, however, marked the con- gres: Among these were th e1917- 1918 question of war efficiency, de- veloped from an investigation of the senate military committee and reach- ing a clim: in the dispute between son and Senator Cham- berlin of Oregon, chairman of the committee. Others involved the league of nations, the Overman bill conferring unlimited authority on the president to reorganize government departments, government control of railroads and the food control ‘act. Prosecution of War. During the first session of the con- gress, devoted largely to prosecution of the war, among the important measures passed were: The declaration of war against Germany, signed April 6, 1917; the selective draft act; the faw for seiz- ure of interned German ships; the war risk insurance bureau act; the first war revenue Dill, the food and fuel control law; the daylight saving meas- ure; the initial and recordbreaking aviation appropriation of $640,000,000; the trading with the enemy act; and measures providing for soldiers ana sailors insurance and -iprotection of their civil right at home. Outstanding Measures. Outstanding measures of the second long session, were: The Austrian war declaration; tie national. prohibition resolutton; the Webb export . trade act; the alien property custodian pill; the laws for government control of railroads, tele- graphs, telephones, cables and radio utilities; the second draft law; the war finance corporation act and the uUverman reorganization bill. During the last session, completion of the $6,000,000,000 revenue bill was the chief accomplishment in addition to. cempletion of water power, oil, gas and coal land development legis- lation, authorization of additional bonds and the huge annual appropria- tion bills. Woman suffrage also was a much- debated topic, but was defeated in the senate last month, 55 to 29, lacking the necessary two-thirds by margin of one vote, after the resolution pro- posing submission of an equal suffrage amendment to tne constitution had been, adopted .by the house on’ Jan- uary 10, 1917, by a gate of 274 to 136. The. campaign for its adoption will be “renewed in the new con- gress, RING Inyestigations, by both. senate and house committees were numerous throughout the three sessions. ‘Among these were the inquiry into disloyalty charges against Senator La Follette of Wisconsin, which recently ended in a vote dismissing the charges. Other important inquiries, in addition to the senate military“ conimittee’s general army investigation, were those into radical pro-German and brewer's prop- aganda, activities of the National Se- curity league, regulation of the meat industry; the railroad question, into coal and sugar condition; the Ford- Avewberry senatorial election. contest from Michigan, and the Hog Island Shipbuilding enterprise. The: senate confirmed, thousands of nominations. It ratified treaties for ecquisition of the Virginia Islands, for reciprocal drafting of aliens’ and sev- eral conimercial and arbitration treat- ies. Despite the support of President Wilson, the - $25,000,000 Columbia treaty again failed. ESTRAY NOTICE. Taken up, one bay gelding, weight 1000 1bs., three white feet, white star and smp. Phone,151.

Governor Frazier, as chairman, and Attorney General Langer and Com- missioner Hagan constitute the North Dakota Industrial Commission. This commission — will immediately super- visegthe issuance of $2,000,000 worth of bonds for the Bank of North Dako- ta; $5,000,000 worth of bonds for the North Dakota Mill & Elevator associa- tion, and, later, $10,000,000 for the rural credits operations of the Bank of North Dakota. They will direct. the establishment of the Bank of North Dakota, select- ing its manager and otner officers and the site. It will similarly estab- lish, officer and locate the terminal elevators, flour ‘mills and other dis- tributing . and. marketing agencies which. are. to: be*operated by the mill and elevator association,/in this and foreign countries. Governor Frazier has not yet called a meeting of the commission, whose first session must be held within 20 days from the date upon which these When the Baby Needs a Laxative--- Noone knows better than theever-watchful mother—the natural doctor of the family in all the small ills—that when the baby is out: of sorts it is usually due to indigestion or constipation. It is always well, in any of its illnesses, to look for this cause. The diet may have to be changed, but before g¢ can result from it, the-bowels must be moved. + The mother has the choice of many medi- cines—cathartics, purgatives, bitter-waters, pills, physics; etc. But the little body doesn’t“need such. harsh remedies for they wrench the system and ‘do only temporary good, so often followed by an unpleasant reaction. y A better plan is to employ a mild, gentle laxative of which only a little is required. There is a combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin sold by druggists under the name of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin that thousands of mothers have used successfully for baby’s constipation and its accompany- ing ills, such as belching, wind colic, rest- lessness, sleeplepsness, etc. The nursing mother will also find it ideal for herself, and it is especially important that she be free from constipation. Syrup Pepsin is guaranteed to do as prom- ‘ised or the druggist will refund the moncy." Thousands of cautious families have it in the house, secure against the little ills.
