There Is Small Chance For a Reor- ganization That Will Form Commit- tees on Lines Other Than of Seniority. Senator Owen’s Idea About Short| Session Is Old One, | By ARTHUR W. DUNN. | Washington, March 16.—{Special.]—| Trouble is predicted for both parties in the senate, but it is predicted by those who see trouble that never comes to It is claimed that the pro- gressives of both parties are likely to unite and reorganize the committees of the senate, not on the lines of senior- ity which have prevailed since the sen- ate first existed, but according to the wishes of the progressives, who want to get certain legislation enacted. There might be more to this predic- tion if the progressives of both parties had a majority in the senate. Such a majority cannot be figured out in view ef the way in which the votes have been lined up in the past session. I ean count but thirty-three senators in both parties who would be likely to go into a movement for such a radical change, while forty-eight can be count- ed against it, with eleven uncertain. The progressives may be able to get eoncessions on the committees, but it is scarcely probable that they will be | able to reorganize them. Held For Two Years. It is quite remarkable that President Taft was able to hold his cabinet in- tact for two years. It is not often that nine men will serve in the cabinet for Nhat length of time. The president would have preferred to go through the four years without a change. Mr. | ‘DEMOCRATS ARE IN OFFICE RUSH Members of the Party Are Hun- pry After Sixteen Years, HORDES OF MEN SEEK JOBS. There Are Not Enough Places to Go Around, and Democratic Leaders Are Eager to Economize by Abolishing Sinecures—Vice President’s Rulings to Be Scanned Closely. By ARTHUR W. DUNN. Washington, March 17.—[{Special.j]— Democrats in congress have already had a foretaste of what they may ex- pect in case there should be a Demo- | eratie administration inaugurated two years hence. They will be simply swamped with applications for office. Pressure for appointments to the comparatively few positions at the dis- posa! of the Democratic house has been tremendous, and every Democratic sen- ator who could be reached has been asked to get places for hungry offiec seekers. Many Democrats are doubtful wheth- er they would like to remain in public life after the party returas to power because they will be unable to meet 10 per cent of the demands which will be made by those who have been away from the public crib for sixteen years. And Economy is the Watchword. And it is the desire of the Demo- cratic leaders in the house to make a record for economy. show the country that they will run the house much cheaper than did the Republicans. They have already plan- ned to cut off a lot of sinecures and easy jobs which have been filled by Republicans, but they will not be able to do this without a protest. When the house assembles cach man Roosevelt, on the other hand, would will have so many applicants on his just as soon change a cabinet officer | back that be will feel like increasing as write a presidential message. He| did both often. The Owen Idea. Senator Owen several times threat- | ened to defeat appropriation bills so as to force an extra session and stated that he did so because he did not be- the number of places instead of dis continuing them. All of which shows that victory has its thorny side. Will Scan Sherman’s Rulings. Although Vice President Sherman re- ceived the usual complimentary vote for the “fairness, ability and courtesy” lieve that the short session of congress | With which he presided over the senate should pass appropriation bills when itz successor had been chosen. The idea of the Oklahoma senator hhas been advanced before, but under the present system of government it is the plain duty of the short session to | make appropriations. If any one can tell exactiy what a short session is for except to pass the supply bills he has mot made it known. Certainly the short session ought not to be charged with the duty of enact- ; ing imporiunt legislation, for there is | not time to consider and discuss such measures. Tammany Wants a Share. Ft developed very eurly in the meet- ings of the Democratic the ways and means committee that | Tammany wanted a share of the good | things that were being given out by that body. So it apneared that Tam- many was behind the demand of Con- gtressman Sulzer for the chairmanship ef the committee on military affairs. during the Sixty-first congress, yet sev- eral of the rulings he wade wili receive earefn! consideration in the aext ses- sion. That the vice president was prone to rule and lean toward the regulars there is little doubt, but the insurgent senators claim that he made several rulings which were not consistent, and they may czll attention to it during the special sexsion. A Mexican Costume. tures sent out a query to consuls in different countries asking them what opportunity there was for selling cloth- ing in their respective districts. The members of | Consul at Durango, Mexico, responded: “As a Mexican laborer wears a style of clothing peculiar to the country— skin tight pants, a short jacket, no vest and a serape or shaw! as a protection against cold—the demand for ready made clothing of efther American or Sulzer has long been the ranking mi- | nority member of the committee. but | the Democrats did not want him for | He has not been in har-| any way become responsible for mak- ebairman. eigner or better class Mexican.” Champ Slipped Away.

When the Dem- Sunday Entertainments. | ocratic conference agreed to leave the For several weeks past the ques | matter to a committee Champ decided tion that has agitated Washington s elety is whether Sunday entertain-/ ments should be given by members of | the smart set. Lent is a fine time for such a discussion, because there are | not many large balls and other eyter- tainments, but at bridge and dinner parties the topic can be agitated, and society women can express their views. Mr. Justice Harlan started it in a talk to the Presbyterians. He roundly scored those who give dinners and oth- er functions of a social nature on Sun- day. He has been followed by a num- | ber of prominent ministers who have taken up the subject in earnest and hope to make such Sunday entertain- | ments unpopular. Sunday entertaining is due largely to the foreign element in Washington, the diplomatic contingent. They give din- mers and have other social functions | on Sunday, and quite a number of the ultra fashionable people in Washing- | ton haye followed them. One of the first persons to rush to the defense of Sunday entertaining was Baroness Hengelmuller, wife of the Austrian ambassador, who is the dean of the diplomatic corps. Supreme Court “Judge.” Not until the closing days of the | last congress was a member of the supreme court officially made a “judge.” They have always been justices,” and they are very jealous ef the title. But the resolution which provided for an investigation of sec- ond class rates and designated a mem- ber of the highest court as the head of the commission provided that such @ member should be a “judge of the @upreme court.” that he would not share in the selec- tion of committees in anywise what- soever. Following a Bellwether. When Senator Lorimer made his fa- mous speech he had something te say about “bellwethers” in legislative as- semblies. He claimed that he follow- ed a “bellwether” in the senate. He mentioned first one and then another |of the most prominent Republicans whom he regarded as “bellwethers” when the rell was called. He said that if he did not get in in time to see how any of the leaders voted he wait- ed for Senator Lodge. “If I find that Senator Lodge and Senator La Follette have voted the same way,” said Lorimer, “I wait for somebody else to vote to see who is my bellwether.” Even the solemnity of the occasion did not keep the sen- ate from laughing. Before the close of the session it happened that just such a situation developed. The roll was being called when Lorimer entered the chamber. Lodge and La Follette voted the same way, and Lorimer waited for another regular Republican to vote before casting his vote. Then he voted with the regulars. Recalls an Old Contest. The denunciation by Mr. Justice Harlan and the defense by the wife of the diplomatic dean. recalled an old contest which has distracted and amused Washington. It is the ques- tion of precedence at social and for- mal functions of the dipiomatic corps and the supreme court. It has been officially settled in sev- eral cases in favor of the diplomatic corps, but the supreme court does not Had it not been for the rush in the elosing hours of the session this error would no doubt have been corrected. accept that decree.
