When the presidential election of 1924 was
transferred to the House Of Representatives
there were no parties in the present sense of
the term. 1t was go-as-you-please match be-
tween several eminent republicans. Two cleo
tons only by the House have taken place in all
our history. and only that of 1924 since the old
plan of voting was dispensed with. The cleo
ton Of 1901 caused the change. Ii the election
of 1892 should be thrown into the House as the
result of IA conflict on partisan lines the oc-
eurence would be interesting from its novelty
as well from the importance of the issues in
volved. The success of the farmers move
ment in Kansas. South Carolina and South
Dakota and the partial success won in other
states south and west furnish some foundation
for speculations concerning such an event.
The promoters Of the third party appea
TO be waiting merely to see what the
old parties will do for the Farmers Alliance
In the year and more intervening between the
present and the time for holding national con-
ventions many things may occur to prevent or
cause the formation of a third party. The
democrats may or may not agree to drop silver
free coinage as a principal issue. Some action
may take place in Congress which will remove
the rject from consideration, although this
is not now probable. While tine subject is
thus involved in uncertainty no distinct step
looking toward three-sided contest next year
can be taken. The conference of the 18th of
May proximo in Cincinnati can hardly do more
than arrange for future conferences and keen
the possibility Of third party movement
before the public.

In the debate in the Senate on the water

In the debate in the Senate on the water
main question there were statements made that
need some comment. Senator Edmunds init
mated in the debate that Congress acted rs
the Districts legislature in the tunnel legisla-
ton the District is responsible FOR any plumbers
on its part and for any blunders
Of the government agents conducting the
work. But Congress when ii authorized
the construction of the tunnel did not act as
the Districts legislature. 1t undertook to
build the tunnel a national project at
national expense. primarily for governments
use, the original water works were built 1t
was not viewed a. piece of District iegisla-
ton. The District not consulted IN any
way as to plan, scope. expense OF work, and II
was not proposed that any part OF the expense
should come from the District. After the gov
eminent had undertaken the work on a broad,
expensive plan. entirely at lis own cost, it re-
fected that certain persons in the District
that il. the water takers-would profit by an eff
fective extension Of the water works as well as
the government So several years after
the original tunnel legislation was
passed Congress. in an amendment to
an appropriation bill, provided not
that the tunnel should be a District item of
expense. one-half at the cost of the general tax
payers, but that certain persons. the water
takers, who were to get water through the
tunnel, should pay for it. The consideration
for the exaction was water to be supplied. The
water has not been supplied. The cOnsidera-
ton has failed. As il right that the local
water takers should not get the water without
paving for it, it is also right that they should
be relieved from paving for water which they
do not get. II Congress had acted in the
tunnel matter as the District legislature.
that is. il it had undertaken with full
warning to build the tunnel a District
concern. one-half the expense to be borne by
the general taxpayers OF the District then
probably Mr.. Edmunds' argument would
apply and the District could not escape.
But having undertaken the work as it
did the only ground upon which the
United States government could collect
part of the cost of the tunnel from the in
dividual water takers in water charges mot
genera taxes was the ground that it had con-
ferred some benefit upon the water takers as
individuals from which an implied contract for
compensation might arise. There never was a
more palpably unjust exaction than that Of
million dollars from water takers compensa-
uon for increased water supply when the addi-
tional water is not furnished.

Senator Quay has broker his long and pain
full silence The speech is a sweeping general
denial Of all the charges that have been made
affecting his private character and by conse-
quenee his public standing. The confession of
silence in the face of serious accusation is with
drawn and plea of mot guilty entered. The
occasion vas not one which permitted an at
tempt to demonstrate innocence. The effect of
the speech is merely to demolish the unfayor-
able inference which naturally arose from the
failure To deny the charges against him and to
throw the burden Of proof upon his accusers if
they intend, as they probably do, to stand by
their guns.
