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.
