Senate and House Clash in Broad Policy Moves
A digest of congressional action shows the Senate passing the eight hour work bill and the unrelated machinery bill, while sending the conference on the agriculture appropriation back to the House. The House backs an eight hour day for railroad workers and debates military and pension appropriations, with Lorimer and Lorimer-related issues dominating party lines. Several state and local mentions include a Jefferson Davis anniversary, a labor protest over canal policy, and a deadly incident in Cesar Rapids.
