The democrats w e been active 'during the present ses sion.' During the short peri ods allowedbf the -ainjority or debate in the House, the iemoeratie, leader, Mr. Wii- iams has exposed the repnb ican position on the toriB question, has demanded re- procity with Canada and cen sured the majujity for the ailnre cf Congress to trans act anv business. In. the Sen ut'e, Senator Morgan made 4 long speech exposing the Ad ministration's policy toward Colombia, and Senator 'Car mack introduced a resolution calling for an inve.i iaation of the Post office scandals by a committee of the Sedate. The Present ? session 'i has brought out the fact that there is much misunderstand ing and mistrust between the republican Senate and House. Speaker Cannon's seyeie ent isms of the Sna te's met hod of transacting business is rs- membered since the enu oi the last Congress when h made his famous speech, and bis attitude on' theqiiestioii has not changed.

According to a careful canvas of 'the Com mittee of Military Affairs there are 'not likely to be than two vot s against a fa vorable ivport. on Wood's promotion.
