Unless the lower branch of congress gets down to| something like business, catches the old time Repub- lican stride and delivers actual legislation, the peo- ple of. the country are bound to regret their vote of confidence of last November. It is humiliating to Republicans to know, that a house with everything at its command to make @ rec- ord is steadily growing more disappointing as time goes on. P The national committee felt called upon to inform the members of the huuse of exactly what the folks at home thought of proceedings, and some splendid advice was offered at the same time. It was all un- heeded. The party press has felt impelled to step aside from the path of faithfulness to orthodoxy and speak very plainly upon a number of matters. The uler point upon which the greatest com- plaint centers is the matter of tax relief. It was one of the Republican party’s loudest promises that, given power, reform would be speedy and effective. There is not even a program in the house. The sub- ject has been sidetracked for othe> matters that are less pressin, The people do not hope to escape taxa- tion. They know it must be borne but they demand that it be made more scientific and equitahle. That be distributed far and wide and more especially sation be applied to persons and things that in fairness should pay and furthermore that taxes be re- Moved from things that retard resumption of enter- prise and business and applied elsewhere. They are not concerned so much as to details as they are that relief be given where taxation now hurts. Then there is peace with Germany and Austria. If ever a party made a pledge to the people on any sub- -ject the Republican party promised to end technical war as the first act it would perform and the presi- dent repeated his willingness to sign a resolution pro- claiming such a state whenever it came to him. The senate acted promptly, along the lines the people de- sired; but some kass in the house who couldn't bear to see so important a matter go smoothly and reach a positive result, must inject himself into the situation and also the record with another resolution to complicate the affair and prolong the agony. There fwere the army and navy appropriations bills upon which the senate receded, not because the senate’s position was not the correct one, by any means, but Wbecause of lack of support of the recommendations ‘of the heads of these departments at the other end of. the avenue. The house shows signs of prolonging the construc- tion of the permanent tariff measure until the De- cember session to the exclusion of more pressing mat- ters. The tariff is important, but it can well wait. The emergency act cared for the more pinching de- mands. It is an admission no Republican likes to make but the Republican ngress is not functioning in man- ner to satisfy public expectations. No criticism is of- fered so far the senate is concerned-. The blame is directed at the house with now and then an allu- uiive for failure to bring order out nto which things are drifting. opimion of the Republican metropolitan Gathered ceess cx ceics of the disappointing situation, and it set Ico down about these three bases, a top heavy ma- joray, the very ordinary order of ability in the mem- be>aip and the Inck of leadershi Te pred-tion is freely made that unless a change ee y brief time the Republican majority will not be top heavy after the 1 elections. ——_____o. | splash water on them as they stand at crossings or} of Imbel tha: meets their approval or displeasure.

The rules are: | Keep to the right of the road. Slow down at crossings. Signal for a stop or turn to the cars behind by holding out the left hand. Apply brakes slowly. Drive carefully. Be prepared to help any motorist in trouble on roads distant from gareges. Be prepared to give pedestrians “lifts” on country roads.

Hope you give the city council an- other crack upon this subject, they need it.

Newspaper publishers are considered a fair lot of | individuals, wanting or asking nothing but what may| be just and right. On the matter of second class| postage, the Globe-Democrat fairly expresses the idea held by most publishers when it says: “As one of the war measures, congress, four years ago, increased the second-class mail rates, which apply only to newspapers and periodicals, approximately 40| per cent, and provision was made for an increase of | 20 per cent more on July 1 of every yéar until July) 1, 1921. The ratés now are 80 percent above the| rates existing when the law went into effect, and wil be 100 per cent higher on July 1, unless action is| taken by congress before that date. Congressman Longworth has introduced a bill inthe honse to post- pone the application of the increase until: an investi- gation can be made by a joint congressional commit- tee into the cost of carrying second-class mail mat- ter. This measure would retain the present rate for the time being, but would defer the impending in- crease until congress can ascertain whether the in- crease is now justified. It is to be expected that such an investigation, if fairly conducted, will reveal the conditions of the second-class mail service, the rela- tion it bears to the entire service, the actual cost of this class of service and the rate it should justly be taxed. “The American Newspaper Publishers association in supporting this bill are asking nothing more than a postponement of the automatic increase of July 1 and a fair investigation of the actual cost of carrying second-class mail.” oot aie ae Saco, Maine, endured the blue laws of the long ago just one Sunday. Then called a mass meeting and abolished them. Just how inconsistent and foolish people are about| liquor is told every day. In the day of its common use, few if any had any sense about using and hand-| ling it. Now that it has almost disappeared from earth they have less sense about it. The Milwaukee!

COERCION WON'T WCRK. From the reports from the Federation of Labor meetr t Denver, four million union lnbor mem- bers are pledged ky their representatives to boycott all goods not bearing the union label. It is unlikely that the four million will fulfill the pledge a ore strictly than does Mr. Gompers him- telf. It can be recalled, when he started on tis hor eymoon his first stop was at a non-union hotel and it is common’ knowledge thet in his personal: busi- ness Mr. Gompers employs labor that is not union- ized. Bot if there were any serious effort to carry out the pledge, just think what would certajnly result While four million men were boycotting goous that do not bear the union label, the rest of the population of the country would be forced, in self-defense, to boycott everything that did bear the union label. That, of course, would be disastrous, to union labor, for the hundred million people could easily out-boy- cott the four million. Nothing of the kind wiil be attempted. Mr. Gom- pers will probably continue to patronize any hotel that suits: his fancy, will hire non-union plumbers whenever he finds that most convenient, and the members of the federation will follow his example. People who are in favur of the’ open sbop will con- tinae tovbuy foods with the union label when they like that ‘kind best. They will continue to go to un- ionized theaters and we shall all continee to get along very happily together, unless someone undcrtakes to use force or other form of coercion to prevent some ether person from exercising his inalienable right to work for a Iwing- If that shall come to pass, there will be something besides serenity pervading the xt- nosphere of America. Members of the federation have a right to buy or refrain from buying goods with or without any sort “He asserts that this ruling sets at naught the con-| tention of the dry forces that liquor possesses no me-| jicinal value and believes that the act of the govern ment in sending whiskey into Pueblo with permission to dispense it with practically no restriction is a start-| ling inconsistency and an unjust discrimination. “In this connectian he makes the point that meny workingmen in various industries are exposed to the elements and are often dranchea, chilled and other- wise mishandled thereby. These sufferers, however, he points out, are not permitted to obtain-whiskey ex- cept as it may possibly be doled out to them by a physician, who is not always accessible and who, per- hape wouldn’t prescribe it anyway. “It is an interesting point, and while the indignant citizen may not be entirely right in his contentions, he has voiced a thought which came to a good many persons on learning that the enforcement officers had removed restrictions so completely in recognition of the imperative necessity for liquor as a medicinal and preventive agent in the Pueblo emergency. “Tt is just another of those things which make life under the Eighteenth amendment a series of unex- pected and entertaining problems.” Cet CHIEF JUSTICE TAFT. The country will certainly approve the appoint- ment of William Howard Taft as chief justice of the United States supreme court. No other appoint= ment, however able the appointee would have given so general satisfaction. Mr. Taft has now realized his life long ambition to sit upon the supreme bench and is the first person to since the foundation of the government to have occupied the chief offices of the exccutive and judictal branches of the government. 2S SE Se oe CAUSE FOR WONDER. \y ustive research on any ubject nd brief}; ive ful! name and ad- dress and enclose two cents in stamps for return postage.
