THURSDAY, JULY 4, 1901
The Ship of State, upon the construction of which Alex Henry has been engaged for some weeks past, will probably be one of the prettiest sights in the parade. The ship will be drawn by 10 white horses, each having a liveried rider. Miss Clara Hansen has been chosen Goddess of Liberty, and Miss Alice Robison Maid of Honor. George Betz will be Uncle Sam and Alex Henry, attired in sailorman's costume, will be at the helm, guiding the vessel. The following little girls will represent the States: Claudina Rimpau, California; Rose Cassou, Arkansas; Olga Boege, New York; Clara Boege, Missouri; Maud Littlefield, Ohio; Lillie Conrad, Iowa; Gretchen Weisel, Wisconsin; Lillie Zeus, Minnesota; Maud Mickel, Indian Territory; Blanch Mickel, District of Columbia; Belle Lyon, Pennsylvania; Edna Lyon, Delaware; Ella Allen, New Jersey; Gertie Asher, Vermont; Elsie Asher, Rhode Island; Gladys Cahen, Connecticut; Harriet Redit, Maryland; Leora Minor, Michigan; Louise Paschall, Arizona; Dessie Allen, Massachusetts; Albertina Kirby, Louisiana; Clara Fischer, Montana; Edith Wallop, Virginia; Emma Backs, Indiana; Clementina Backs, Illinois; Agnes Rimpau, Tennessee; Clarice Weilky, Kentucky; Edna Duepre, Alabama; Ethel Duepré, Georgia; Emelia Barborka, Florida; Elsie Nebelung, North Carolina; Violet Nebelung, West Virginia; Amanda Edwards, Texas; Nona McWilliams, Mississippi; Alice Grimshaw, Utah; Lillian Christian.
THE SLEEPY SENATE
With adjournment of congress set for the first of the month, the Washington correspondents are scoring the accomplishments of the Senate and comparing them with what is before the senators for consideration. They estimate that there are 148 bills and resolutions reported by committees that may never reach a vote.
Many of these measures are of considerable importance. Such bills as the one to establish migratory bird refuges, the Pittman bill to complete the purchases of silver under the act of April 23, 1918, the bill to increase the efficiency of the air service of the army, the Capper-Truth-in-Fabrics bill, the Jones bill to expedite and encourage foreign commerce, a measure to prevent the sale of cotton and grain in future markets, the Stanfield bill to assist the cattle industry, the bill by Cummins to provide for the consolidation of carriers by railroads and the unification of railroad properties, an act to amend the immigration act and other proposals to reduce postage on farm products, the French spoilation claims bill, the Colorado river bill, the Muscle Shoals bill, and a half dozen reclamation bills.
The Senate calendar thus is in a hopeless jam and many matters of importance will not be acted upon until the December session. The Senate doesn't seem to be able to do its work. When the country was criticizing congress, a year or so ago, for its failure to make decisions on critical problems, it was found that the House had passed its legislation and that the delay was in the Senate. The maze of red tape and privilege and a lot of such stuff emobline to blind the Senate so that it can not function with anything like the necessary speed to keep up with the public problems. The Senate is pompous.
