Representative Dingley om the Action of the Congress Just Closed. ITS WORK WAS MORE DMPORTANT THAN ANY COX- ORES SINCE THE CLOSE OF THE WAR—SomE OF THE MEASURES PASSED--THE SENSELESS CRY OF THE wrNoRrTY. Representative Nelson Dingley of Maine is one of the most experienced legislators and keenest observers in the House. He was prob- ably chief among the two or three men who served as Speaker Reed's aids. He was one of the most active members of the ways and means committee, and the so-called McKinley bill might as properly be called the Dingley bill. He has been a close adviser of the Speaker, and there is no one short of the Speaker himself better qualified to speak for the majority of the last House. A Stan reporter had a long talk with him last evening concerning the work of the Con- gress, “When,” said Mr. Dingley, “5 Reed said in his classic waist eae cue in language which achievements of the House would not be suita- ble to the time and place,’ every member on | the republican side felt the truth of the deli- that history would look npon the work of the Fifty-tirst “Congress as the most important achieved by any Congress since the war, or by all the Congresses of the last eight years. “The work done by any Congress is not to be measured by the number of acts and resolves passed, although «comparison of these with the number passed in other Congresses shows the largest number ever enacted by any Con- gress. Anact pensioning John Jones counte one in such an enumeration and a tariff act counts only one. In important measares, how- ever—measures of far-renching legislation, of public importance which call forth str: position as well as earnest support—the achieve- ments of the Fifty-first Congress have been 80 numerons and so great that it will be regarded as pre-eminenily the business Congress. SOME OF THE MORE IMPORTANT MEASURER, “Think of the long list of public acts which have become Jaws. A tariff act comprising an entire revision; an administrative customs act designed to secure a uniform collection of duties; pension legislation which liberalizes the pension lawsso az to reach faithful soldiers who cannot prove that their disability orig- inated in the service: an act reapportioning Representatives to Congress under the new census; acts admitting nix new states to the Union and establishing the new territory of Oklahoma: an act prohibiting the use of the mails for the circulation of lottery advertisements; the original package act; an act prohibiting the formation of trusts: an act for earned lands granted to acts ratify- ing treaties extinguishing the Indian title to millions of acres of public lands: an_ act to re- fund the direct tax to states which paid the same: legislation providing for the payment of long-delayed French spoliation claims; legisla. tion looking to the addition of battle ships to the navy; an act adopting the regulations for the prevention of collisions at sex recom- mended by the international murine confer- ence; the uct providing for the holding of the Columbian exposition at Chicago in 1893: an act amending and improving the laws regulat- ing immigration: the international copyright 3 the acts providing for the inspection of cattle and meats intended for exportation, and the act increasing the endowment of agricul- tural colleges. “In addition to all of this and much more im- portant legislation, the Fifty-first Congress has reformed the judiciary system of the United States so as to further the ends of justice by creating an intermediate appellate tribunal. Indeed, if nothing more had been done than to secure the passage of this measure this Congress would have deserved the plaudits of the whole people. SETTLING THE SILVER QUESTION. “When the Kitty-first Congress assembled it found the country agitated by » demand for more currency, in consequence of which the owners of silver mines had been able to create 4 strong senfiment for the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 of gold, when the actual market ratio was 20 to 1. This organized move- ment for free coinage was able to carry the | scheme through the Senate, but the House stood up against it and secured a com- promise measure which maintained the sound- ness of our currency and at the same time incrensed the circulating medium and used substantially silver product as woney. great service this Congress has done to the business of the country in successfully oppos- ing schemes depreciating the currency will be better appreciated when the next Congress assembles and surrenders, as it will, to. the dangerous financial schemes which the great body of the democratic members of the recent Congress were rendy to support “Then there is the act looking to the estab- lishment of American steamship lines between this country and foreign couniries, especially South American countries, whose trade is being opened up to our citizens by the important reciprocal arrangements whicli Secretary blaine is making with them under the authority ranted under the recent tariff act. While 1 Kad hoped that the shipping legislation of, the Fifty-first Congress would be more comprehen- sive than this—looking to the restoration of our merchant marine—yet the pessage of this meas- ure marks a new era in our legislation, and will lead to further steps. “The mere mention of all this important leg- islation achieved by one Congress omitting the other important measures (the elections bill and the bankruptey bill, passed by the House and not »y the Senate )—is sudicient to stamp the work of the Fifty-first Congress as the most comprehensive and important ever done by any one or even a half dozen Congresses outside of the war period. ‘THE WORK OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. “To be sure nearly all this important legisla- tion is political and represents the views of the republican party and was naturally antagonized sharply by the democrats. But the republican party had ben placed in control of the Con- gress by the vote of the people, with the distinct Understanding and even pledge that it would enact such legislation; and it carried out its ledges to a fuller extent than has ever before been'known. Being in a majority it was right, a6 well as its duty, to take all necessary steps to thus legislate. “The republican majority amended the rules 80 a8 to give the majority the power to carry out its wishes, and in spite of democratic ob- straction this republican majority has legis- lated. And hereafter, as Speuker Reed well said, the party will be able to successfully ex- use itelf from performing its pledges by plead- ing its inability to overcome the opposition of the minority in the bulls of Kep- resentative government is not the failure which those would have it who plead for rules that will enable a small minority to defy a majority. If the Fitty-first Congress, led by Speaker Reed, had done nothing more’ than to demonstrate the power as well as the right of the majority to control it would be entitled to the insting grat- itude of the people. ‘THE SENSELESS CRY OF THE MINORITY. tion has no foundation. The minority of a iamentary body has the right to reasousble , but not right to prevent a vote. When so-called debate and even ordinary motions are used to prevent action they cease to be debates in the Fifty-first Cons im the previous democratic almost four times as much as in seventh Congress.

Commenting on the election the Zmpire says: The isene Was momentous. The government — was | jassailed with a bitterness almost unpre- | |cedented in our politics. By calling in foreign aid the opposition leaders ient them- | selves to a disgraceful attempt to subvert the independence of Canada and to overtarn | Uritish rule on this continent. ‘The plottings | jand schemings wore worked out under the | | E2ike of a seductive commercial policy. The | electors were asked to believe that simply business proposition was before them for ac- piance or rejection and most strenuous ef- forte were made, extending over several years, to catch the sympathy of the people aud delude them into trusting the enemies of their coun- try. Canada gave her answer to this despica- | bie movement yesterday when it rejected the | foreign plotters and their Canadian allies and sustained, by a decisive majority, the policy and adwinistention which have made this country strong, prosperous and — self- | respecting. Canada’s reply to annexation traitors, veiled or unveiled, is that she despises them and rejects their propositions with scorn, and that public men who assciate themselves with treasonable intrigue need look for no | quarter ut the hands of an indignant electorate. j The government of Sir John Macdonald has ! Deen triumphantly vindicated in the face of the world. ‘The poli unrestricted reciprocity | or annexation bas received its quietus and the old flag, old leader and old policy have re- ceived sach an indorsement from the electors of Canada as to sweep into oblivion their de- tractors and foes.

The “Globe ways: The prospect before the government is uot an inviting one. It has been terribly weakened at the polls. The premier's reckless speeches have destroyed any hope of its obtaining any rélaxation of the United States tariff in our behalf and have created a irritation in the minds of our neighbors whic « may produce evil fruit for us before long. Every branch of industry is prostrated, | without much exaggeration, agriculture, the foundation stone of all, may be sid to be near- ing its last gasp. Under these conditions the administration cannot possibly survive. But the liberalsare by no means eager to assume control. The responsibilities and dangers of the situation are so imminent aud so great that were it not their bounden duty to save the country if they can they would be well content to let the tories rule until the deluge arives.
