In the hope Of preventing action on other
measures. The Senate Is the favorable field
for this sort Of thing IL It has been agreed
there. No previous question contracts his
powers. No necessity of keeping to the
text confronts him. Once he Is recognized
by the chair, he may talk on any subject he
likes and while his strength holds out. 1t
becomes a contest between the speaker and
his physical powers of endurance And so
1t is that few senators united in the bonds
OF obstruction may exercise great influence
on the legislation Of short session of Con-
gress.
But let us hope that this threatened pro-
enough for the most careful examination Of
all the supply bills and for other important
measures as well. Why should not all Of
them have a chance? If the majority is
ready for vote on any bill, why should it
not, after discussion. have opportunity to
record itself? The majority Is invested with
the responsibility, and whenever ready ard
willing to assume responsibility for legisld-
ton 1t Is entitled to clear field for that
purpose Obstruction such as suggested Is
confession OF defeat on legitimate lines,
and Is not to be justified on any other
grounds than those Of putting the pride of
personal opinion or the bitterness Of per-
sonal opposition above the rules which
should govern the transaction of the public
business. The mere obstructionist ceases
to be legislator while engaged in such a
performance

and sneered out Of the youngster was
doubly replaced by his own lordly domineer-
ing? Assuredly. IL the harsh training OF
the first year eliminated something from
the human nature of the newcomer, the
exercise of tyranny I'm the second and sub
sequent years must have had an equal eff
feet upon the character.
If 1t Is desirable that the conceit be taken
from the plebe. In order to fit him to be-
come an ideal army officer, why should not
the process be entrusted to more mature
hands than the revenge-seeking yearlings
and second and first-classuen? If this pro-
cess Is essential it should become part OF
the academy routine, and not be relegated
to the boys themselves For they are not
likely to use judgment beyond the crudess
bounds in their exercise of assumed author
ity. They cannot discriminate between the
cadet whose conceft is commendabie ana
another in whom conceit is fault. They
very evidently do not draw any distinction
between the cadet who cannot stand the
eagles and the dips and the fighting, at his
particular stage of physical development.
and another who is rugged enough to go
through the whole course.
If the West Point training is to be Spar
tan in character, the course Of elimination
should be officially conducted, and not be
abandoned to the boys. The boy who is to-
day admitted to the ranks of the corps is
supposed to possess all the physical qualifi-
cations for the future officer which the ser
vice demands. If weakings are let in who
cannot stand the hazing the fault is not
theirs, to be punished by cruel exercises.
but rests upon the officers whose duty 1t is
to guard the ranks from such entries.
The whole system seems to have gone
wrong. The best result of the military and
the congressional inquiries and Of the
cadets pledge to abstain hereafter from all
forms of hazing will be the enforcement
OF process of training which will

tuition upon graduation an officer competent
to perform his duties without having been

cruelty-breeding tyranny at any stage of
the process.

The West Point inquiry has developed the
fact that the hazing OF plebes used to be
conducted on o broad scale. HaZing parties
called "soirces" were formed. with several
plebes doing stunts in succession. or
sometimes In concert. for the delectation OF
the upper classmen. A cadet testihes that
on one such occasion he did 80 eagles
hung on a stretcher for two minutes and
did some dips" That was his evenings
contribution to the entertainment. He felt
weak after the experience, although he de-
MES having been thrown into commissions
Thus II seems that the hazing business at
the academy was reduced to a system, with
the sOirees and the pugilistic tournaments.
Everything went ny rule, even to the ex-
tent OF a regulation that no plebe should
ever win a fight, no matter what his con-
dition or skill. The upper classmen lost no
opportunity to impress upon the plebes that
they existed only to amuse their superiors
The argument advanced In favor of the
practice is that Ii served to take the con-
ceit out of boy. 1t may have done so
during his first year. But how about the
time when he became tormentor. when he
was entitled by his rank to look upon the
plebes as creatures At only for his delight

The appropriation bills are to have the
right of way In the Senate from now until
the close OF the session. 1t Is necessary
that they should have careful consideration
They carry enormous sums of money and
they touch at every point Of the govern
ment's interests and obligations. To hurry
them through would be unwise. The coun-
try expects a good reason for every impor-
tant item of such provisions for the public
needs. and can hope to get that reason only
in the discussions of the measures when
they are put upon their passage. Such in
quiries and explanations therefore as have
for their object the making plain and clear
the work of the different committees In the
preparation of these bills are of course en-
tirely legitimate. and the time SO employed
will be time WELL spent.

ures are to be used. not by those who will
have them In charge. but by others. for

The oleomargarine business is perfectly
legitimate as long as 1t Is conducted as an
oleomargarine business, and not as butter
business. Any man has right to make
oleomargarine provided he disposes Of it as
oleomargarine, and any one has a right to
buy and eat oleomargarine If he chooses.
We may criticise his taste, but the regula-
ton of taste is not within the scope Of the
law-making power. 1t Is when the con-
sumner who wishes butter buys butter and
pays for butter that the protection of that
power Is needed. 1t is an outrageous swim
die that oleomargarine instead of butter is
given him, and the swindlers should be
summarily and effectively dealt with by the
law.
Legislation to this end should not be die
tated by considerations of the injury the
oleomargarine business may do the butter
business or of the benefit the oleomargarine
business may be to the cottonseed oil bust
ness or the soapgrease business. There is
no better reason for saying that the law
should countenance the oleomargarine swim
die because 1t furnishes a market for few
barrels Of cottonseed oil than there would
be for saying that the law should counte-
nance the counterfeiting business because
1t furnishes market for Q few pounds of
cotton or linen required In the manufacture
OF paper. A..
