Doings in Congress Vance vows death to civil service law
Special correspondence from Wasaneros reports heated clashes in Congress over the Civil Service Law with Senator Vance and Representative Bennett urging aggressive action while Henderson seeks amendments. The Senate moves on Alton bridge. House bills touch Pacific Railroad land surveys and Oklahoma title. Labor questions rise, with debates on eight hours work and convict labor. Private secretaries, Lent observances, and a letter from Major Watts reflect broader political and social currents of the session.
