QUESTIONS OF STRIFE.

In the debate that was had in the Senate on the
9th instant Mr.. CowAN, in replying to an inter
rogatory concerning question which, in his judg-
ment, involved rather topic of controversial than
of practical politics, gave expression to the follow
ing sentiment, the justice and timeness Of which
will be admitted on general grounds, even by
those who may not concur with him in his classif-
cation Of the particular matter to which his atten-
ton was called, being the power Of the President
to suspend the privilege Of the writ of habeas cor
pus. Declining to answer the interrcgatory, he
said

cumstances to give to any gentleman, much more to any
senator my opinion gpo1 apy legal question where had

President who has so many titles to respect for
his civic virtues may well dispense with that Of
Cabinet General. And we know that in former
days, before he was charged with the tremendous
responsibilities thrust upon him by this gigantic
instruction, he did not rate his military expert
ence or capacity very high. Speaking on this
point, while member of Congress, and with that
festive humor which ruas through his discourse,
he held the following language:
" BY the way, Mr.. Speaker, did you know that am

The sportive thought of 1916 has become the
solemn fact of 1868. The imaginary Demo-
cratic candidate for the Presidency has become
the actual President of the nation, and, with no
other military experience than that which he has
himself made the topic Of his own inimitable
Righteousness, Mr.. Lincoln has suddenly found
himself the constitutional Commander-in-Ch Chief Of
the army and navy of tho Union engaged in .
Titanic contest 1t is no reflection on his conceded
talents to say that they do not probably lie in the
direction of martial achievement, and when he has
summoned to his aid General-in-C Chief who has
made the art Of war his special study, he should
divide with that officer due share Of labor and
responsibility, and give also to the General COM
handing in the field has just proportion Of duty
and service, without subjecting the one or the
other to those cross purposes which spring from
confusion and the want of official subordination
In this way the nation might hope to secure from
the President, from the General-in-C Chief and from
the field officer, each in his several station, that
effective service which results from the reciprocal
action of cooperative agents employed in com-
mon work and wisely distributed in different
spheres of duty

ings will doubtless prove of the highest interest.
The only objectiou Of any weight that we have
heard urged against Private O'Reilly's plan is
that his organization cannot be permanent, as,
In four years, at twenty-five per cent per an
mum, it will have absorbed all the properly,
real and personal, ofthe city, and there will be
nothing left to steal. To this Private O'Reilly
answers that when all the taxpayers have
been turned out into the streets, full means of
activity will still be left to the organization in
plots and efforts to cheat each other. "Inside
rings" will then have to be formed, having for
their object further consolidation Of plum
der. He is also sanguine that, with the triumph
of the scheme in this city, politicians all over
the State and country may take II up, until
finally it shall be placed in position to dictate
one Ofits own members or agents for the next
Presidency. The proceedings Of the caucus
will be looked for with interest.

How THE NkW LEVY Or TROOPS AFFECTS The

with the call for another levy Of three hundred
thousand men the paper manufacturers have
raised the price Of printing paper from about
twelve cents per pound TO about sixteen and
seventeen cents per pound. The connection
between the two events may not strike the un-
thinking mind at the first blush, aud yet the
one Is the immediate result Of the other. How?
Nothing palmer. Tie three hundred thousand
now troops must have three hundred thousand
full suits OF uniform. This necessitatcs an i'm

rial most In vogue with our army contractors
Is shoddy. Shoddy is made Of old rags, iclled
into the appearance Of cloth; ard II il the dc-
mand thus created for old rags that sends up
their price In the market, and consequently in-
crcascs the price OF pspen Tie contractors

on the strength Of their contracts. and sweep in

ries The papermakcrs Ind great difnculty In
procuring an adequate surply OF rags, and have

Hence the Increased price Of printing paper.
