QUANDARY
Question of Adjournment Proves
to Be Peculiar Puzzle to
Republicans.
DEMOCRATS ARE CONFIDENT
day Taft In Pushing Their Policies
President's Measures All Careful
ly Drawn to Avoid Injuring
Qualnefls.
WashlnBton. When asked If con
gress will adjourn early this year, tho
Republican lenders answi-r. "Wo will
adjourn curly If wo can." Usually
thero Is a sort of Vovert smllo accom
panying tills answer, for congtess can
adjourn early If It will. The real sit
uation is that the continuing majority
llnds Itself In a peculiar position. It
fears that IMcglslalion Is put through
and If oarly adjournment comes, that
tho members will bo blamed for not
giving duo thought to the bills that
have been passed, provided any one
of tho bills proves to bo weak when it
takes on tho form of law.
Another dllllculty Is that some of
tho congressional primaries will bo
hold early this year nnd If congress
makes a legislative lipurt and does
Its work nml ,-idlourns, It umy bo said
that thero was hurry so that tho mem
bers might gut back to their baili
wicks to look after their personal po
litical fences. In the house by tho
adoption of a rule on each legislative
suggestion, a bill can be debated mid
passed In a few days. The house la n
law unto Itself In this matter. In tho
senate, of course, there In no such
thing as shutting oft' debate except by
unanimous consent, but this will not
be hard to obtain on any great meas
ure, because no ono man probably this
winter will care to object to tho vote
on any one of tho major measures
tho president has recommended.
Position of the Democrats.
The Democrats apparently look up
on somo of Mr. Tnfl's recommenda
tions as being In line with good Demn
rratlc doctrine. Their attitude to
ward tho Administration's leglslatlvo
wlshetr In Just nbout what their attl
tndo was toward most of the Uoose
volt policies. Tho llryan Democrats
in both house and senate saj that the
opposition parly has stolen tho am
munition of Mr. Hrynn and his follow
ers. The more conservative Demo
crats express thcmsolves as being of
tho opinion that the progressive poli
cies ot Mr. Taft are Just what might
bo expected of u Democratic presi
dent who was not given over to the
llryan theories of government. So it
appears that for entirely different rea
sons tho Democrats aro pretty well
united on tho advisability of sanction
ing after duo scrutiny tho bills after
a suggestion of how much better they
could bo mado by u Democratic admin
istration. It has been said that at heart many
of tho Republicans aro opposed to
some of tho president's rocomtnonda
tlons, but that they will vote for him
for party reasons. Tho members of
tho majority party who an. in oppo
sition inwardly, but not outwardly, to
tho making Into law of the Interstate
commerce recommendations nnd some
other measures aro In the main
tho Hepubllcans of tho high tar
iff school, tho men who have stood
stnnclily by Mr. Cannon In tho Iioueo
nnd by Mr. Aldrirh In tho senate. Their
opposition Is based on tho foaling that
tho old ways aro best and thnt In the
mntter of "regulating things," tho Re
publican party is going altogether too
far.
See Change In House Majority.
The Democrats In tho house, and
in the sennto, too, for that mntter,
havo not lost ono grain of their re
cently acquired confldenco that tho
next bouso of representatives Js to
bo Democratic. Tho recent election
In tho sixth district of Missouri,
where tho successor of Representative
David Do Armond was chosen, has
filled tho Domocrnts with renowed
hope nnd positive assuranco of victory
next November. Tho Democrat who
was elected to succeed Mr Do Ar
mond wns chosen by a majority that
was double that which was given to
tho former Democratic represontativo
from the district. Two or three Re
publican otilclnls of national famo
went into tho Missouri district In tho
endeavor to elect a Republican candl
dato, and falling In this, hoping to out
down tho Domocratle majority. Not
withstanding tho aid of ono cabinet
olllcer and ono United States senator,
tho Republican voto fell off tremen
dously.
Tho Republicans In tho lower house
whoso districts nro at all close, nro
telling tho loaders dully that thero
must bo no weakening of tho Tnft
recommendations when they aro put
Into form for pussago. They say that
If thero is any going back nt all. they
roar tho results at homo, and that any
marked chango la tho form of the
presldeat's legislative suggestion
when put on pnssage In tho bouso will
bo virtually cortalu to lose thorn tholr
tents.
Business Interests Safe.
Attorneys who represent great
I business Intcrats recently havo lo'cn
l
making specchoa nt
dlnnors . and
at other gatherings to tho pffect
that notn i) of tho lcgialntlon ' which
President Taft la nttempt'ng to Imvo
written into law Is hound to hurt tho
commercial iniere&ia oi tu
o country.
...... i
witnout attempting in any way to
express an opinion as to tho validity
of this claim It may bo slid that the
president Just now Is undergoing tho
same kind of critical assault Tor leg
lslatlvo endeavor that waa mndu on
his predecessor In olllco tlmu nud
time again. It can bo said, nlso, thut
tho present ndnilnlstratlon docs not
seem to be In nny way moro disturbed
over the attacka than was tho strenu
ous ono which occupied tho White
House buforo it.
It Is a matter of record thnt onco
on n tlmn Theodore Roosevelt said
that his "withers would not be wrung"
If there wero a dozon financial panics,
provided, of course, ho knew that they
wero disturbances growing out of a re
form thnt wns necessary In order to
make honest the business consclenco
of tho United States.
Administration Measures.
Tho president fully expects to havo
enacted Into law, beforo tho session
closes, tho postal savings bank bill,
measures for safeguarding tho natural
resources of the country, his Inter
state commerce amendments, and, It
inuy be, a law governing tho matter
of Issuing Injunctions. Mr. Taft has
ghen whnt may be considered his
legal opinion to the effect thnt all of
th'sc measures will stand tho test
of constitutionality.
Willie tho federal Incorporation plan
will not be actively discussed in con
gress until iioU winter, It Is today
tho center of discussion In nil tho
llnanclal centers ol tho country. When
Mr Taft first Intimated what It was
intended to accomplish by tho bill, tho
corporations of tho country thought
apparently that It would prove to bo
u good measure from their standpoint.
Now there seems to havo been o
chango of feeling, and tho representa
tives of corporations nro nttncklng
tho president's plan witli great bitter
ness. They do not liko tho paragraph
which prohibits any company which
takes out Incorporation papers under
the natlonnl government Irom inquir
ing ttoek in u company whose busi
ness runs along similar lines. Thero
aro other provisions In the bill to
which objection is being raised in
many sections of the country, but ap
parently the objectors havo mado no
progress In tho nttempts which havo
been mado to get tho president to
change his mind on the subject.
Dnlllngcr Inquiry to Be Long.
Thero la a feeling In Washington,
growing stronger day by day, that tho
Halllnger-I'Inchot Imostlgatlng com
mittee may not conclude its hearings
for n long time to come, and that its
final report will not bo given to tlio
public until after tho congressional
elections next November.
The hearings havo taken no more ot
the form of a real trial than they had
when tho proceedings wero opened.
All parties to the controversy are now
represented by counsel nnd thero nro
direct nnft cross-examinations, Just nn
ono hears them In any court. Louis
R. Cilnvis, who was the first govern
ment ofllcial dismissed from tho ser
vice on account of tho charges which
ho brought by Inference, at least,
against a high officer, has mndo a
much better witness for his side of
tho case tlmn his opponents thought
possible.
Pinchot a Busy Man.
Clifford rinchot, the former chief
forester, who was dismissed from tho
service because of tho letter that ho
wroto to Senator Dolllver, Is tho busi
est man In Washington these dnys.
Ho is president of tho National Con
servation association nud of tho Joint
Commltteo on Conservation. These
two organizations probably soon will
bo joined In order that tho conserva
tion work may not bo duplicated. Tho
Idea Is to concentrate the efforts of
all tho friends ot conservation. In
addition to his work as chief of tho
two civil conservation bodies, Mr.
1'lnchot was busy for a long time pre
paring himself for tho witness stand In
tho congressional committee room.
Tliero is beforo congress a bill for
setting nsldo forest preserves in tho
southern Appalachian mountains and
in tho Whlto mountains of Now
Hampshire. Glfford I'lnchot hns felt,
his friends say, that Prof. Mooro's
statement that the forests havo com
paratively little influence on strcnm
flow will. If accepted, be taken as a
strong argument ngainbt setting aside
nn Appalachian forest reservation. So
it Is that Mr. Pinchot has felt that ho
must answer tho statements of Prof.
Mooro.
Scope of Inquiry Broadened.
There seems to havo been something
of a misunderstanding about tho con
gressional inquiry now being mado
Into the conduct of tho officials of tho
two different branches or government.
It has been understood by the people,
apparently, that Secretary Hnllinger's
nets nlono nro under Inquiry. Tho in
vestigation wns broadened to iiuiudo
tho acts of tho forest service officials,
and so It Is that Clifford I'lnchot, for
mer Law Officer of tho Forest Ser
vice A. C. Shaw, former Assistant
I'orestcr Overton W. Price and Louis
R. Glavis, who was an employe of tho
reclamation service, nro also, so to
speak, fellow defendants in the ease
now engaging tho attention of tho
congressional committee.
Of course, tho majority of tho mom
bora of tho commltteo uro Repub
licans becauso tho liousn is Repub
lican, and committees aro ulwnyi. eo
named as to givo tho dominant party
control. It Is said in Washington by
tho friends of tho forest horUco thnt
there will be no report lisued by the
commltteo until after tho congres
sional elections, becaiibo they say no
matter which way the report runs,
whether in favor of Mr. Halllngor or
in favor of tho others, (hero will ho
of necessity a good deal of feeling
created nnd that this will havo Its
effect on tho elections. Tho members
of tho committed, however, bay that
they will get through Just as s ion

Chicago. "This burg Is having an
unusuul number of jobs by plckpock
otB," said a veteran detcctlvo a few
days ago. "I hardly understand thu
revival of this ort of crime, as tho
best of the 'dips havo been pretty
well stowed away, and the complaints
of 'lifted' leathers and tickers havo
been fow until recently."
Ily "dips" tho old sleuth meant
pickpocket. When ho used the word
"lifted" ho referred to tho taking of
an article by a pickpocket. In tho
vernacular of a pickpocket a pocket
book Is a "leather" and n watch la a
"ticker." A diamond Is a "spark."
"I don't know whore this mob
comes from, as I haven't been working
on the cases," continued tho detective,
"but It seems to bo composed of a
pretty clever lot or dips." It may bo
necessary to explain again that by
"mob" the old thief-taker meant a
hand of pickpockets.
"Those fellows usually work In
pairs, and U la not unusual tor them

"Ono of tho commonest inothodu of
