RESIDENT TAFT’S announcement that if the Canadian reciprocity bill be not enacted by this Congress he will call the new Congrese to mect at once is not a threat but a promisc; not a men- ace to the standpatters of the Senate, but an assur- | ance to the Progressives of the country. | In forcing an extra session upon the Administration the reaction- aries are really serving the interests of the people. Just as the Tories of Great Britain by rejecting the Liberal budget precipitated a contest for reforming the House of Lords, the protective tariff Tories of the Senate, by rejecting fair trade with Canada, will make elear to the country the need of ridding the Senate of all represen- ‘tatives of special interests, of electing none but men that will serve good of the Republic and the welfare of the people. The issue cannot be made too plain, nor presented too soon 20 eee LEGISLATORS AND THE LADIES. GISLATORS weary of the Senatorial contest have doubtless hailed with joy the appearance at the Capitol of the militant suffragettes. After five weeks of dodging by Dix and peremptory orders from Murphy it must have been pleasant to pass | the evening in a ballroom where politics was) mingled with smiles and flatteries, and where we are told “Miss Fola | La Follette, daughter of the Wisconsin Senator, gave a reading on ‘How a Vote Was Won,’ while Miss Marjorie Benton Cook gave two suffragetie monologues.” Cases have been known" where pleading was done go charmin that it was denied solely because to consent to it would be to end it: Some similar danger may attend the pleas and persuasions at| Albany. here is a further danger that the ladies may have taken their grace and their arguments to the wrong place. It might have | been better to have had a hearing at Tammany Hall. Mirae Se ARBITRARY ARRESTS. AYOR GAYNOR’S message to the Board of Alder- men on the lessened number of arbitrary arrests by the police made an excellent showing; but, by coincidence, the news of the day proved that all is not yet as it should be in that respect. In the morning World of yesterday it was re-| ported that two men carrying an automobile tire chain presented | themselves at a police station with a statement that they had found it. ‘Despite the fact that they had gone to the station voluntarily, the captain ordered them to be arrested and charged with being “sus- picious persons.” The Magistrate of the Night Court released them. “When the police cease to arrest without sufficient cause,” says the Mayor, “the Night Court will not be needed.” Under the cir-| cumstances, that appears like a prediction of long life to the court. e+e IT WAS THE CAT. | The Evening World Daily Magazine.
