He was one of the first to champioi use of the insurgents. He saw ¢! of heir cause and th ness of their aspirations at the very outset. While th were being denounced as an insigni: and of ignorant marauders, who dese oly death, he insisted that patriotic with a high and good and entitled to rec; purpose, gnition by tnls govern- ment. He has seen them gr numbers and influence until they are now able to hold at bay one hundred ard fifty thousand picked Spanish troops, under the command of a veteran general, and aided by war ships and gunboats patrolliag the coast line all around the island. He has seen a resolution pass both houses of Congress by almost a unanimous vote favoring the according of belligerent rights to the surgents, and he has read tne cordial in- dorsement of that action in every represen- tative newspaper of prominence in the United States. And yet he has scen that resolution ignored by the Exseutive, and this government kept in line as an all: Spain to prevent tf possible the es ment of independence in Cuba: Is there any wonder that Mr. Morgan should object to this? Could he do less than to vigorously protest against it? Is not bis effort to have the wisnes of the people, as opposed to those of the Execu- tive, prevail in the business, not only Icg- ical but patriotic? He knows the sense of Congress, for he has seen that taken, and he knows that Congress sepresents the people. He has observed the course of the Executive, and he feels justified in be- Heving that Cuba has nothing to expect from the Executive. Naturally, therefore, he desires that Congress, before udjourning, should take some further step toward terminating the alliance now existing by which the constabulary of the United ates, and even its navy, are moved like ces om a chess board at the bare sug- gestion of the Spanish minister here in Washington. Mr. Morgan speaks with great earnest- hically depicted | ness, and with every reason. Not only is Cuba slighted by the Executive, but he, as Cuba's champion, shares the same fate. The Executive refuses to communicate with him on the subject. His respectfully worded request for information from the White House is declined, and he is passed over by the Exccutive in selecting mem- bers of the Senate's Foreign Relations Committee for a personal conference. Mr. Gray was selected to repres2nt the minor- ity of the committee. He is a very able man, and is a friend of Cuba, but every consideration called for the presence of Mr. Morgan at that confere: He, and not Mr. Gray, had asked by formal resolu- tion in the Senate for such information as the Executive might have respecting the situation in Cuba. Mereover, Mr. Morgan, who was chairman of the Foreign Rela- tions Committee in the last Congress, is at the head of the minority of the commit- tee as at present organized; and as Mr. Sherman, the chairman, was invited, so should Mr. Morgan, the ex-chairman, and leader of the minority, have been invited. But the Executive cannot at the most do more than temporarily check Mr. Morgan. The Alabama Senator will in the end, and for the large purposes he has in view, be triumphant. ‘The failure of Congress at this session to follow Mr. Mor- gan's advice will neither discourage nor di: m him. if General Weyiler, or any other Spanish commander, is operating in Cuba when the December session begins Mr. Morgan, with characteristic constancy and courage, will renew his fight, and, it may be confidently predicted, will then win it. —__+e=+____ To Distribute Appropriation Bills. Once more does the proposition to dis- tribute the appropriation bills make its ap- pearance. This time it emanates from Sen- ator Proctor of Vermont. Of course, it is not expected that anything will be done with the proposition during the present ssion, but that it will be heard trom dur- ing the coming winter is a certainty. In very many respects it is remarkable that previous efforts to make equitable distribu- tion of the apprepriation bills have come to naught; that the appropriations com- mittee minority should have been too much for the great majority of the Senate mem- ip. The weight of reason appears to be on the side of the proposition which was lately championed by Senator Dubois of idaho, and which will be urged in the near future by the ex-Secretary of War. To the people of the District of Columbia the Proctor resolution is extremely interest- ing; its success would mean a great deal. It is true that the Senate committee on ap- propriations has always been inclined to- ward a wise and just liberality in its deal- irgs with District matters—the District subcommittee has of late years been pains- taking, conscientiovs and open-handed— but it must nevertheless be insisted that the Senate committee on the District of Columbia is the organization which should practically control the District expendi- tures. Of necessity it is the District com- mittee that ‘Ss upon all local legislation except the most important, which is the appropriation bill. It would be difficult to argue in favor of the exception which Is now annually niade. If the District com- mittee is capable of caring for the interests strict, It should not be treated as it ought to be fully empowered, as it undoubtedly is fully equipped, to frame and manage the appropriation bill which is so closely related to its work. The same argument holds good as to some other committees and some other appro- priation bi The committee on military affairs, for instance, must certainly be bet- ter able to judge as to the needs of the army than the general appropriation com- mittee an be, for the committee s is continually engaged, session after session, in the consideration of matters purely military, while the ap- propriations committee is spreading itself out over a legislative territory much too large to be carefully and comfortably tra- versed by a body of thirteen Senators. ——_ ++ +2 The warm wave was considerats enough to postpone its at sume of the streams cemandn ion in the river and harbor bill woud not dry up before the Measure got through. ——_-— +02 witl be only two classes of people mount to a great deal during the The who | convention season; politicians and hotel keepers. —-2--___ Wherever McGregor sits is the head of the table; but McGregor never tried being Vice-President of the United States. > © Two hundred and forty men were em- ployed today on the new city post-oflice building, say those in authority. —— oe Mr. Plait and Major McKinley continue to ignore each other.
