THE KEXT INDIANA SENATOR, .T. 7 ... Mr. Shively Has Enjoyed Considerable Congressional Experience Already. The Economic Policy in Respoct to the Building of Postoffices—General Gossip. J3y CHARLES W. ARTHUR. Washington, Jau. 22.—[Special.]—Un til something over a year ago it was customary when one of the assistant secretaries of the president appeared with a message from tho executive to the senate for the vice president to re quest any senator who happened to be speaking to suspend for a few mo ments so that t lie message might be received. On a number of oeca*'Uus when Senator Tillman <<r Senator For uker was vigorously attacking some policy of the administration Mr Fair banks has rapped on his desk and re quested him to suspend. Then a'sen ate employee would aqqmujce in Joud (ones, “A message from the president of the United Stoles!” Frequently Till man or Poraker would be indulging in very "hot talk,” and such an au- would couse much En S E ter lii tae chamber. This session both of these senators have been locking horns with the president furiously, gud each time they had the floor communi cations were received from the White House. But they have been withheld until the speeches were concluded. Home days the emissary- from the White IJ use would have to watt about the enpitol for hours before there was a lull sufficient to enable him with propriety to ask to be re ceived. A Book Much In Demand. A resolution Inis been Introduced In the house to print 250.000 more copies of what is conmr-nl,. called the “horse hook.” Tills publication rolls a groat deal about the’ eb v i ss, of that lUPst; useful animal. Some people claiming to have rxpo.rt knowledge have tried to run down the publication, tup there has been a wonderful dcifuuftT ro? ity It was first Issued about twenty years ago, and the editions have been re newed several times. People keep writing for it from all parts of the country, and member; are constantly, looking around nr to ■ ;;a to constituents. Of course there is no certainty, that congress v,i!i ivler an other edit Km to bo s ru k of, for the managers of legislation are now puz zling their brains to lepop appropria tions down to the lowest notch. Familiar With Congressional Life. Ben F, Shively, who is to come to the senate in March from Indiana, will Im* no stranger In Washington, for he served eight years In the house. Inning his first term In that Laly he was politically known as an *‘auii monopoilst.” Then he aligned blfhself with the Democrats and has he n an intense believer in the principles of that party ever since. When Mr. Shively was in congress he fire there were comparatively few young men In the national legislature. In those days it was the exception to find many here whose ages even ranged between thir ty and forty. As Shively was .much under thirty on first coming to Wash ington, he was pointed out as a rarity by the eapitol guides. He was b< rn in l'vu, So is only fifty-three years old now. David Tar pie was the last Dem ocratic senator from;lndiana, his t: rm of sendee having ended March 4,1N99. At one time since the civil war In diana sent two Democrats to the sen ate in' the persons of the late Senator* Voorhees and McDonald. Demand For Copies of Speeches. So many requests came to congress men for copies of speeches delivered in the house concerning the portion of the annual message of the president relating to the secret service that a resolution was offered by ltepresenta tive Boutell of Chicago to print 2,000,- 000 copies of the debate aud proceed ings and deliver them to members through the folding room, so that they could i>e sent broadcast over the Unit ed States. The cost was so great, how ever, that the representatives did not have the nerve to pass the resolution. The chief speakers on that occasion are expected to have their speeches printed at their own expense, and oth er members will have to content them selves by ordering extra copies, which they will have to pay for if they re spond to the requests of their constitu ents.
