CONGRESS The 68th Congress passed in to history twp minutes before noon on March 4 th. 1905 after a remarkable career as a legisla tive body. Many were the im- 1 u. -i fuimui taws mat vuugress placed upon the. statute books, and many were the laws it tried to make and failed to agree up on. But the going out pf the last Congress was amid a cceue of good fellowship without a parallel in the history cf the nation. When the last forma. act had been performed' and the house was only waiting the hsur for the inaugural ceremonies to be given in the Senate Chamber, Mr Payne of New York, moved that the House take a recess un il 11 o'clock which was ' agreed upon. Mr. Payne said, "lam requested to give notice that tbere will be a joint caucus of Democrats and Republicans beld immediately in this hall. Mr. William Hepburn of Iowa then arose and said, "The caucus of the Democratio and Republi can members of the fifty-eighth Congress will come to order. I am glad to recognize the fact that tbere are occasions when a mild type of a Republican like myself (laughter) can be per mitted to preside over a Demo cratic caucus (laughter), aud al so I am glad that there is an occasion when I can ask the distinguished gentleman from Virginia, Mr. James Virginia Hay. the chairman of the De mocratic coinmitiee, to preside over a Republican caucus." (ap plause) ' Mr. Hay in taking the speak er's chair said;" I suppose this is the most unique occasion in the political history of this country. I do not believe there has ever been a joint caucus of this char acter before, and I certainly feel that . I am peculiarly distin guished to be called upon to preside over it. The Caucus will come to order. The gentleman from Illinois is recognized." Mr. Henry S. Houtell, in a very pretly address among many other things said; "The fifty eighth Congress is rapidly ap proacbiog its close.

The measures Lave all been considered with exceptional candor and 'moderation, and the entire business of the House has been carried on without faction, and in harmony, with the best I thought with all the members of the House of both political parties." At the close of Mr. Boutell's address he presented , to the Speaker of the House, Joseph G Cannon, a loving cup procured by the members for the occa sion. The prettiest speech msde during the joint caucus was that of Mr. John S. Williams of Miss the Democratic leader -in the the House, wherein he praised without stint, Speaker Canonu. After the speaker had been ap propriately honored, Mr.Cbamp Clark of Mo. presented to Mr. Sharp Williams of Miss., the Democratic leader in the HouBe, aleo with a beautiful loving cup in a neat speech, m which among many good things he 8Mid;"The hictoriiu our times will record the fact that the fifty eighth Congress was disting uished above all its predecessors for the extraordinary kindliness of feeling which prevailed among its members. Democrats were .glad to honor. Uncle Joe Cannon and the Republi cans rejoiced to'compliment the Democratio leader.
