fZJEJK
OF WORK IN WASHINGTON
(From the Macon “Dally New*.")
I T was the .first Monday in December,
.1111, that Hoke Smith, leaning an
the arm of Senator Augustus Octavius
Bacon, walked down the aisle the
senate chamber to the vice president’s
dsak to be sworn In ss a senator of the
United States. . , . . ,
He had been a member of President
Cleveland's cabinet and had been twice
governor of Georgia, but there was an
air of reserve, almost diffidence, as he
took his seat on one of the back rows
after the ceremony. New senators are
always given one of those seats and
later on they get something better
either by process of drawing or filing
a claim in case of vacancy.
The senate is so old and so self-sab
tsfled that the advent of a new mem
ber hardly excites a mild curiosity.
The senators knew of Hoke Smith,
but only the more prominent ones
knew him personally, for It had been
nearly twenty years since his sojourn
in Washington as secretary of the in
terior.
As the hum-drum of routine went
on the new senator began to take in
his surroundings. He studied the sena
tors as first one and then another
would, from day to day, engage in de
bate. It waa pretty much os if he were
studying an antagonist—the lawyers
on the other side in a great law case.
Before him were members of the great
est law-making body in the - world-
more than ninety of the picked men of
the United States. The game was old
to them, for they had debated questions
of government among themselves for
a decade or a score of years. Attentive
in a high degree to all that waa said.
Hoke Smith was in reality weighing
the men with whom he was to con
tend in the enactment or defeat of
legislation. The Republicans were
in power and over on that side stood
Root and LaFollette, Lodge, Penrose,
Smoot, Sutherland, McCumber, Cum
mins and others, an air of confidence
and a smile of satisfaction on every
face. The Democrats were to be played
with as a cat would play with a mouse.
Hoke Smith observed it ail, but before
the Christmas holidays came he had
sized up the senate and knew the fight
ing weight of most of the men on the
other side. He knew their strength,
he knew his own and he was not dis
turbed.
Hit First 8peech.
There was a tradition that new sena
tors should not rush forward in debate.
They were supposed to confine their la
bors to answering roll call for at least
a year. But Hoke Smith got past that
ancient idea so easily and so quietly
that he did not even slightly jar the
senatorial dignity. Just a little speech
in favor of the children’s bureau In
Washington—not a speech on the tar
iff, or the trusts, or the currency—
only a modest little talk about the wel
fare of children, made by an ex-mem
ber of the cabinet, ex-governor, a big,
broad shouldered man from whom
might have been expected a thunder
ous exposition of some international
question. But it broke the ice. Hoke
Smith had made his first speech in
the senate. And the bill which he
had advocated was passed.
One thing that was noticed was the
fact that the new senator's voice was
distinctly Southern, so clear that
without effort |t was heard in the
most remote corners of the gallery
and so softly modulated that It fell
pleasantly upon listening ears.
There came along In a few days the
matter of committee assignments for
the new senator. What would he have,
the Republicans wanted to know. A
place on the agricultural committee
and • place on the postofflee commit
tee, waa the answer. Oh, no. no, he
could not get those places.
“Then, leave me off entirely," was
the reply. "I would Just as soon take
cue of myself on the floor of the sen
ate.”
And then the Republicans saw that
while the new senator’s voice was soft
enough there was the glitter of steel In
bis gray eyes that meant' trouble and
they went off by themselves and came
back and said he could have the two
committee places for which he had ex
pressed a wish. What Senator Smith
has done with those committee places
will 4m told of a little further down In
this article.
His Early Work In the Senate.
Early In the session the house passed
a resolution to dissolve a treaty with
Russia which had been In existence for
a long period of time. It Involved the
right of naturalised Jews to return to
Russia and was a very delicate Interna
tional question. Russia was the friend
of this country. There was no objection
to the abrogation of tha treaty, but
the house resolution was offensively
worded. Senator Smith's second speech
was In support of an amendment modi
fying the language In such a way that
It would not offend a friendly power
and the position which he took wai
sustained by the senate.
When the arbitration treaties known
aa the peace treaties caiip up Senator
Smith pointed out that under the bill
aa proposed vita! questions of our gov-
erfiment could be passed upon by arbi
tration, possibly forcing the United
States to abandon positions heretofore
held or to repudiate Its treaty agree
ments. The resolution was amended eo
as not to include the admission of
aliens to the United States or to the
educational Institutions of the several
states; the territorial integrity of the
several states; alleged Indebtedness of
any state, the maintenance of the Mon
roe doctrine or other purely govern
mental policy.
This amendment protected the
Southern states against Suits over the
fraudulent bonds of reconstruction
times.
The senator made a fight on the
special pension bll's, nr.d on the Sher
wood pension bill, which would have In
creased the amount paid for pensions
by $76,000,000 a year. The house had
passed that bill, many Democrats,
among them Speaker Champ Clark, vo
ting tor It. The senate refused to pass
the Sherwood bill, bat it passed the
McCumber bill, adding about $26,000,-
000 a year to pensions. Senator Smith
had part In preventing the passage of
the Sherwood bill which meant a $76,-
000.000 raid on the treasury, thus help
ing to save the country $50,000,000 an
nually. He . also voted against the lllr
000,000 lncreese.

first to twenty pounds and finally to
fifty pounds. Under this system of
low rates for the short hauls the par
cel post has been a great and Instan
taneous success. Senator Smith Is Im
mensely pleased with the results.
Division of Markets-
During his first year ln Washington
Senator Smith Introduced a bill to es
tablish in the department of agricul
ture a division of markets to aid tho :
farmers In the marketing of their |
crops. The bill was Introduced at tho j
suggestion of Hon. R. F. Duckworth j to learn ol the wedding

and other officers of the Farmers’ Un
ion. An appropriation of $60,000 a year
was made and the division has been ln
operation now for more than a year. Its
work Is to he largely Increased and ex
tended, under appropriations already
agreed upon.
Advocated Wilson’s Nomination,
As early as February, 1912, Senator
Smith announced his advocacy of
Woodrow Wilson for the presidency.
He was steadfast ln urging Wilson's
nomination, and with the adjournment
of congress spent the succeeding
months ln campaign work in the west
and east. He was rewarded by see
ing the former Georgian sweep tho
country from ocean to ocean.
When It was known that the Repub
licans, who a year before, were In
haughty control of the government,
had been hurled from power, the fig
ure of Hoke Smith loomed still larger
In national affairs, and when later It
was seen that oven the sonate liad
passed Into the hands of the Demo
crats, Hoke Smith wan hailed as the
coming leader of the senate. The up
heaval of November was to be felt
In every department of the govern
ment—the house, the senate and the
presidency, all belonged to the Dem
ocrats.
This political revolution meant first
of all the complete reorganization ot
the senate. Under the old order ol
things Democrats of a reactionary type
were ln line for committee chairman
ships. The seniority rule would havo
given them these places of power and
they could have stifled important
forms, as was done under Cleveland.
The great body of Democrats turned to
Hoke Smith to lead ln handling the sit
uation. He was one of the controlling
spirits on the committee that effected
the reorganisation, and it was accora-
lllshed without the slightest Motion.
Sach senator was given the chairman
ship to which he was entitled under
the seniority rule, but the membership
ot the committee was so arranged that
the Progressive Democrats were la
control. It Is a fact, however, that
the men who were considered reao
tlonary got Into line quickly and never
since the war has there been such
harmony as the Democrats have expe
rienced under Wilson’s administration.
Tariff and Currency Bills.
When the Democrats came Into pow
er on March 4, 1313, Senator Smith
was urged to take the chairmanship
of the new banking and currency com
mittee, which was to shape the cur
rency bill. He preferred, however, •
place on the finance committee, which
wae to have charge ot the tariff, and
still clung to his old places on the
lostoffice committee and the comxnlt-
ea on agriculture. Ha took the chair
manship of the committee on educa
tion and labor and is on other com
mittees, including the important Judi
ciary committee.
As a member ot the finance commit
tee, 8enator Smith spent practically
the entire Bummer of 1913 on the tariff
bill, working usually from early in the
morning until eleven o'clock at night.
As soon as the tariff bill was dis
posed ot he took up the currency bill,
to which he added Important amend
ments One of these provided for re
ducing the rate of interest on the Aid-
rtch-Vreoland emergency currency to
three and a half per cent per annum
for the first six months. That amend
ment mado available at a low rate of
interest, $600,000,000 of currency
ready printed and lying Idle In the
treasury. Tho wisdom ot this amend
ment waa so apparent that it
adopted by the Democratic caucus and
passed by the senate without a dis
senting vote.
Farm Demonstration Bill.

which he regarded as equaling the
currency bill in Importance has fin
ally passed both house and senate
and been signed by President Wit

Regional Bank in Georgia,
But Senator Smith’s erownlng
achievement for Georgia was In se
curing for his state one of the twelve
regional banks provided for by the
currency bill.
This bank, which will have about
five million dollars capital, will be
located ln Atlanta, and will make the
Georgia capital the financial center
for Georgia, Florida, East Tennessee.
Alabama part of Mississippi, and
part of Louisiana, including the city
of New Orleans. Its purpose Is to
make money easier by keeping bank
reserves in this section that would
otherwise go to New York and by
providing additional currency for
making and marketing crops. If
Senator Smith had not been able to
get the hank for Georgia It would
havs gone to Louisville or Cincinnati,
cities that have no Interest whatever
ln building up this section.
The Macon News told of Senator
Smith last December:
“A wonderful record Is behind
Hoke Smith and a greater future
awaits him. The thousands who fol
lowed him ln the campaign of 190S,
before this record had been made,
have reason to be gratified over the
soundness of their Judgment and the
vindication of their faith. He was
a great governor and he la a great
senator, and those who supported
him in the several campaigns, as well
as those who opposed him, must) as
patriotic Georgians, find satisfaction
In the commanding position which
lie occupies ln Washington.
"We cannot recall an Instance In
which any man has ever ln so short
a time attained so forcefnl a position
In that body of distinguished states
men nor more completely won public
confidence by a clear, strong grasp
of great public questions.”
That commendation, which was
deserved then Is doubly deserved to
day, for since the words were written
Hoke Smith has won the regional
bank for his state and has passed the
farm demonstration bill which means
so much for the country, anf he Is
today fighting the battles of the ad
ministration for the repeal of the free
tolls clause of the Panama canal bill.
It Is not surprising that the think
ing people of Georgia are practically
unanimous for his return to the senate
unopposed,
