 Washington, D. 0., Dec. 11, 1900.

Dear Sir:

In pursuance of the plan outlined at the last convention
your committee met at Washington shortly after the Openingeof Con—
gress for the purpose of securing an early recognition of the 3111
S. 3982, for Establishing Mining Schools or Departments of Hining
in connection with the Agricultural and Mechanical Colleges. It was
found necessary to secure a Special rule for this purpose. A hear-
ing was given us by the Committee on Rules on Saturday last, and we
were assured that the matter would receive proper consideration in a

for days, but it seems hardly probable, with the present pressure of

great public measures, that a place can be assigned on the calendar

before the Holidays. ,Our present plan is to maintain an attitude

of watchfulness without GXpecting to be able to press the matter be—
fore Congress‘takes its recess. If there should appear to be a fa—
vorable opportunity for action either before or after the Holidays,
your immediate cooperation will be asked by telegraph. It is desira-
ble that as many members as possible be fully informed as to the im—
portance of the measure and be prepared to take an active part in,
support of it when the proner time comes.

&

For the Executive Committee. ‘

Headquarters of the Executive Committee at

mbbitt House, Washington, D. C.

 

 Washington, D, 0., Feb. 7, 1901.

Dear Sir:

We regret to ear that we have received from the Speaker of
tne House an explicit statement that Senate Bill 3882 will not
be allowed to come up fer act on thi; seas ion on the ground that
it involves an.appropriation, and large appropriations have al~

ready been made.

.We do not intend,_however, to relax our efforts_and ask es~

pecially that those, whose legislatures meet-this winter,\ may

press the passage of the resolution, a suggested form of which
has already been sent you.

Even if the members of your own state delegation are known
to be favorable, the paieage f such resol; 33-0n by your legisla—
ture will have its effect.

For the Executive Committee.

A flea/M WWW Chairman.
