INTOLERABLE ROT.

Think OF paper of the standing of the
Minneapolis Tribune printing edtorialy
such insufferabic nonsense as this, in
which there is not even the customary
grain OF truth:
Eugene l.. Ware, the new Pension
Commissioner, has been looking over the
ground AT Washington. He is said to be
greatly disturbed by the Presidents posi-
tive Injunction that he must administer
his office in accordance with the law, with
out any discretion or discrimination This
is exactly what Evans did and it got him
into trouble with the old soldiers. When
! he resigned under pressure, most of these
believed that different policy was TO be
pursued. Commissioner Evans left about
$1,000 rejected claims, having the sane.
ton of the Grand Army of the Republic.
which are certain to be renewed under
Commissioner Ware. If he treats these
as Evans did, the old soldiers will treat
him as they treated Evans. II he blinks
the law to let them in, as some Pension
Commissioners have done, he will disobey
the Presidents orders. If the President
should modify his orders to the Pension
Commissioner, he has plenty of enemies
to hold him up before the country as con.
senting to violation of law. 1t is not clear
just how the President has gained either
prestige or peace of mind by making q
change in the Pension Office"

CLASH BETWEEN THE HOUSES.

There is a fine row on between the
House and the Senate. 1t has been
vigorously asserted that for years the SEN
ate has been usurping the powers of the
House. and that the real Government of
the United States is little clique of some
seven or eight Senators, who control the
Senate, and through it the House, which
merely does as little ring, consisting of
the Speaker and three or four members,
dictates. The control of the House is alb
solutcly in the hands Of the Speaker and
the Committee on Rules. who are in turn
quite subservient to the dominant clique
in the Senate. This is as true when the
Democrats are in power as when the Re
publicans are. 1t will be remembered that
at the time of the passage of the Wilson
Bill the Senate usurped the Houses pre-
rogatiye in regard to revenue bills, and
House, cut out everything but the enact
ing clause, and substituted its own bill.
which the House obediently passed. This
week, however, a rebellion has broken out,
and it started right in the House ring. In
the Appropriation Bill which the House
sent over the Senate calmly inserted an
item of 100000 for the CONSTRUCTION
and repair of such permanent buildings
1t posts as the Secretary of War may
deem necessary" Chairman J. G. Can
non, of the Committee on Appropriations,
and the Committee on Rules, protested
vigorously against Ibis invasion of the
Houses prcrosativcs, and offered a reso-
luton directing the House Conferrces not
to agree to the item. The subject of the
Senate's domiaeerins was pretty thorough
ly aired in the discussion which followed,
and the resolution was adopted by vote
of 101 to 80. The Senate received notice
Of this uprising with scornfnl haughti-
ness. and the fight is on. There is no
politics in it. House Republicans and
Democrats are agreed IN the determine.
ton TO clip the Scnate's feathers. and all
the Senator's seem equally agreed in the
determination TO teach the House a lesson
as to its place in the Government.
