astute strat egy got the Norfolk government build ing appropriation put on as an amend ment to the general appropriation bill the other day But that is an easy trick The courtesy of the senate iB such that any little old appropriation no matter of whatever nature is always stuck on to tho house bill at the request of any sen ator That is the reason why all appropria tion bills are doubled in the aggregate ti the senato when they are sent up om tho house The coutesy enables every spnutor to make a record for him self to read to his constituents The senato doeBnt consider itself at all re sponsible in money matters oud would apparently spend twice our iucomo every session if the houhe would only let it But the house doesnt It just says uon concur and that ends the heart ache The house long ago gave it out straight from the shoulder that in view of the extraordinary expenses of the government this year no appropria tions should be made either for the im provement of rivers aud harborB or for public buildings except where it is nec essary to finish a job to avoid loss And Norfolk will have to wait with the others until Uncle Sam has loose change to spare for luxuries State
