Tli < ? Cumcrtrxaioaal Record.
To appreciate the value of The Con
gressional Record one must see it used.
It is the only means by which members
themselves keep Informed of the prog
ress of legislation when scores of
measures are often considered in a
day. It Is on the desk of the president
of the United States and is read by
every executive officer , from cabinet to-
chief of division. Every government
in the world envies ours the possession
of such a publication , forming at anew
an indispensable current record and a
permanent history of events even moro
valuable through the centuries. Argo
