e G S 8 THE WORK OF CONGRESS ey HOW IT COMPARES WITH PREvIOUS SESSIONS. Avw Interesting Review of the Law-Makers’ Zabors—Volume of the Work—Bills that Have Received the Approval e! Both Houses, Etc. The working or business feature of the Congress just closed, says a Washfngton dispatch, may be studied with interest Three measures, any of which in intrinsic importance and popular interest would be sufficlent for a national issue, stand forth pre-eminent among all others. First, the McKinley tariff bill, which became a law; second, the silver bill, on which, during the first gession, a compromise was effected, based on a monthly purchase of 4,500,000 ‘ounces of silver, and which, in turn, was followed by a moro radical measure that failed of passage; third, the Fede:ial elections bill, which, after a protracted, bitter, and hotly fought and intensely exciting preliminary struggle, failed in the Senate to reach a decisive vote on its merits. Even in {its mortuary record the Congress was remarkable, the call of death having summoned no fewer than twelve of its Representatives and three of its Senators. Thelist contains the names of Senators Beck of Kentucky, Wllson of Maryland, and Hearst of California: and Representatives W. D, Kelley, Samuel J. Randall and Lewis F. Watson of Penn_sylvania; S. 8. Cox, David Wilber and Newton J. Nutting of New York; Richard Townskend of Illinois, J. M. Burnes and James P. Walker of Missouri, James Laird of Nebraska, Edward J. Gay of Louisiana, and James Phelan of Tennessee. The total appropriations for this Congress will probably reach $1,000,000,000. During the Fiftieth Congress 1,611 bills were vetoed, and during the Fifty-first Congress fourteen. In the Fifty-first Congress 14,033 bills were introduced in the House and 5,120 in the Senate. In the Fiftieth Congress 12,654 bills were introduced in the House and 4,00 in th» Senate. In the Fiftyfirst Congress 207 joint resolutions, or twenty-eight more than the number introduced in the Fiftieth, were introduced in the House. lln the Senate 169 joint resolutions, twenty-four more than in the Fiftieth, were introduced. The bills that became laws during the Congress just ended numbered 2.186. In the Fiftieth Congress 1,804 bills were enact™ ¢d. The number of bills, ete., introduced in the Fifty-first Congress exceeded by 20 per cent. the number introduced In the Fiftieth. Among the bills which have become Yaws are thesa: The copyright bill, the private landcourt bill, the Indian depredations claim bill, the timber and pre-emption law repeal bill, the customs administrative bi]l, a general land forfeiture bill, the bill to relieve the Supreme Court by the establishment of intermediate courts of appeal, the United States judicial salary bill, the World's Fair bill, the Wyoming and Idaho admission bills, the anti-lot-tery and anti-trust bills, the reapportionment bill, the immigration bill, the bill to ratify agreements with various Indian tribes and to pay the friendly Sioux SIOO,OOO, to reduce the fees of pension agents, to pay the French spoliation W,&Q&t inspection bill, the s “subsidy bill, the bill to preven ~Ahe-dmportation of adu'teratod foo and drink, the live cattle and hog inspection bill, the bill appropriating $1,000,000 for the improvement of the Mississippi River, to permit sorghum sugar manufacturers to use alcohol without payment of tax, to limit to 60 per: cent. of the rates charged private parties the rates the land-grant railroads shall charge for transpcrtation of government troops and supplies, to authorize the construction of a tunnel under the waters of the Bay of New York, for the con:truction of a deepwater harbor on the coast of Texas, for the relief of settlers on the Northern Pacific Railroad indemnity lands, to permit the export of fermented liquors to a foreign country without the payment of a tax, to appiy the proceeds of the sales of public lands and the receipts from certain land-grant railroads to the support of agricuitural and industrial colleges, joint resolution congratulating Brazil on the adoption of a republican form of government, bills to establish the Chickam=zuga military park, providing for town-site entries in Oklahoma, authorizing the use of the Louisville and Portland canal basin, tc amend the interstate commerce act co as to give the commissioners fuller powers in respect to making inquiries, providing that applications to purchase forfeited railroad lands shall begin to run from the date of the restoration of the lands to settle- . ment and sale, for a military post at San Diego, Cal., for an Alaskan census, to extend the time of payment for public lands in cases of failure of the crops, to issue 1,000 stands of arms to North and fouth Dakota, Wyoming, Montana, and Nebraska, to set aside the big-tree tract in California as a public park, for the inspection of catt!e steamers in order to secure more humane treatment of cattle, providing that the life-caving appliances act shall not apply to the lakes and bays of the United States, to enable the Postmaster General to expend SIO,OOO to test freo-delivery system in small towns, to create the customs district of North and South Dakota and Puget Sound, and for | the erection, repair, or enlargement of many public buildings heretofore noted.

Ir the gums, as frequently happens after illness, become very sore a gargle of myrrh in a little water is to be commended, and as this has a good, wholesome odor one need not mind using it.

Davis, Rector of St. James® ‘ Eplscopal Church, Eufaula, Ala.: "My son has been badly afflicted: i with a fearfuland threatening cough; for several months, and after trying; ' several prescriptions from physicians! - which failed to relieve him, he has i been perfectly restored by the use of! | two bottles of BoAnEpiscopal schee’s German SyruD: I ecan recom- | Rector. mend it without | hesitation.”” Chronic severe, deep-seated coughs like this are as severe tests as a remedy can be subjected to. It is for these long- | standing cases that Boschee’'s German Syrup is made a specialty. Many others afflicted as this lad i was, will do well to make a note of { this. J.-F.
