The last session of congress pasted 132 public aots, which -had been ap proved by the president, up to and in cluding the month of May. Many of these were of general public Interest and were carefully considered by both houses. An act to define and fix the standard of value, to maintain the parity of all forms of money issued or coined by the United States, to refund the public debt aad for other purposes, was the first bill pasted through the house of representatives, and became a law on March 14th last. This bill is the most important of all that became law during the session. It plaoes the fiaanoes of the country firmly on the g-old standard. If o pub llo official can hereafter .disparage any dollar issued by the United States until the Senate and Heuse, with approval of the Presldent,shall concur in amend ing this statute. The bill also provides for the refund In? of the national debt, amounting to 9350,000,000, into 2 per cent bonds. Since the passage of the act this re funding process has been constantly roing on, and now reaohes about $280, 000,008. As the old bonds bore interest at the rate of 3, 4 and 5 per cent, the national saving of interest on the bands already refunded amounts to considerably more than $5 000,000. This saving will nearly equal the entire in terest on the $200,000,000, bor rowed to pay the expense of the Span ish war. Should we succeed in refunding the entire indebtedness of eight hundred and fifty millions at the low rate of 2 per cent Interest the national saving in interest would not only pay the in terest on the Spanish war loan, but also the interest on tne $262,000, 000 of bonds Issued by the last admi nistration in time of peace. Under the minor provisions of the bill there has baen a great Increase of national banks of limited capital in the imtller towns, particularly et the western and southern states. Bills providing for the government of the Hawaiian Islands and of Porto Rico, after long consideration, have finally become laws, while the bill for the government of Alaska bat been psseed. The feature of the Porto Rlcan bill which occasioned most disousslon is the snost liberal toward that island of any ever Incorporated into law. It provides a slight tariff on the products of that Price 25 Five Copies Ten Copies 'PHONE fit fit fitt- -ft fift-fij fiU.

At the end of two years trade between Porto Rtoo and the Ualted States becomes absolutely free. Nob only this; Congress has approp- prlated all the revenue derived from goods imported into the Waited States from Porto Rloan since the oc cupation, and amounting to more than $2,000,000, for the benefit of the people of that island. All tariff oolleoted at Porto Rloan ports Is aleo to be used for that . purpose. This was a boon to those poople, justified by the clrcuma tanaes, and unparalleled for generosity to irard any people. This congress also passed the free homes bill, giving free homesteads on the public lands to actual bona fide settlers. This was a measure pledged by the platform of all parties. An amendment to the pension act of 1890, known as the Grand Army bill, has also become a law. A law of much importance passed during the session was that allowing the free transportation' in bond of all goods shipped through the United Stated from a foreign country. This will be of great benelt to the shipping interests of the country. An anti-trust law amendment to the Sherman law of 1890, as effective and far-reaching as the constitution will permit, has also passed the house of representatives. The appropriation bills have been carefully scrutinized, and although the aggregate is large, they are free from all questionable items. The growth of the country and the con tinued disorder in the Philippine Islands are solely accountable for the increase in these annual bills. It was not deemed practicable to reduce the revenues during the last session, but, should the present rate of surplus oontlnue, the committee on ways and means, having leave to sit durlog the recess, will bring in a bill and press its passage at the beginning of the next session. Meanwhile the Treasury Department has used about twenty-eight millions in refunding operations and will use twenty-five millions more In the 2 per cents already called in, thus practical ly disposing of the accumulated sur plus for the year. Congress has also done much in kill ing propoeed legislation of a bad or questionable character. El Paso Steam Laundry, Phone 4? Cents for $1.00 for $1.50 115 or mailing -W- fift; f $.&!
