Washington, Dec. in the prosaic pages of the printed report of the house committee on the agricultural bill, Just, published, is the swan song of representative Scott of Kansas, with 2.n answer which is both a lament and a gloat by representative Rucker of Missouri.

Mr. Scott, chairman of the committee on agriculture, is a chastened standpatter. Mr. Rucker is a triumphant, but untried Dentocrat. Both men have the fluency of expression and the thob of vocalication that brings tears to the eyes and make the Adam's apple uneasy.

It appears from the all too official report of the committee's first hearing that Chairman Scott called cha body together at precisely 10:20 the morning of December 1. Mr. Scott proceeded immediately to the subject. his heart. nearest "Gentlemen," said he, "under the shadow of the returns from the.recent election I am reminded somehow of the story that when the gladiators of ancient Rome entered the arena for their last combat they litted up their voices and cried out to the assembled spectators: "We, who are about to die, salute you." At the point, according the printed record, the committee laughed unison.

trust you have all had a pleasant summer," Mr. Scott continued. "and I am heartily glad to welcome you back to the work that remains for us to do. To you whose commissions have been renewed Land who are looking foward to two years more of service here, I tender my best most cordial congratulations. As to these who, like myself, are entering upon the last period of their services here do not know but I may offer congratulations to them also.

It seems to me I remember that one of our prophets said somewhere: "To every Ivan upon this earth death cometh soon or "The fate which has befallen those of us who retire March 4 is that which will sooner or later over take us all. My best wish for you is that while you remain your work here may be pleasant to yourselves and useful to your country, and that when the time comes for you to join that innumerable caravan that has proceeded you into the pale realm sof private life you may go with the consciousness of duty well done, with no regrets and with little reluctance. "Plato tells us that when Socrates came to die after having spent his last day in pleasant communion with his friends, in bidding them goodbye as he went away with the executioner to take the hemlock he said: 'And 90 we go our way, you to live and to which is better, heavens knows. The clerk will call the roll." At this point the record mentions more laughter and some applause. "One minute, please," interrupted Rucker.

"Your remarks, Mr. Scott, remind us that soon or late, some time, friends must separate, the circle will be broken, all earthly ties must be severed. We rejoice, however, that friendships are abiding and that mere separation cannot destroy the high regard, lofty esteem and personal affection which are the natural offspring of long association, intimate asquaintance and close relations with really good men. "As a partisan I rejoice in the victory of my party, but I am pleased to testify that nothing less than a return to safe and sane methds of Democracy would compensate the country for the loss of your public services. Let me assure you, sir, that when your legislative career shall have ended we will part as friends, and to whatever new activities you may devote your energies and your labors, wherever you may go, we, the members of this committee, over which you have so long presided with such conspicious ability, fairness and success in common with all your colleagues, wish you continued health, happiness and prosperity." Although the record is silent on this point, it, is understood that after this exchange of felicitations there wasn't a dry eye in the capitol.

Dr. Willis Moore, the first witness to be heard by the committee, then took the stand and described the weather. LABOR BUREAU AT Y. M. C.
