Liberty and Her Torch.

Certain New Workers who entertain a pa
trotic sentiment toward the statue of Lib
erty in the harbor aver that 1t is an outrage
upon the genius OF the republic to extin-
guish the electric light which has for years
been maintained at the tip of the torch
which the great symbolic figure carries
aoft The Treasury Department asserts
that the lamp is useless piece of extrav-
agance. not furnishing enough light to ilu-
inmate the harbor nor serving as effec-
tive beacon in aid Of navigation. The issue
hinges upon the annual expenditure of only
S1.HJ. but the treasury is not disposed to
go into its own contingent funds to supply
this amount, and Congress refuses longer
10 furnish the money for the purpose This
same controversy ragged a few years ago
when a similar emergency arose through a
failure of Congress TO appreciate the senti-
mental value which New Workers and some
others place upon the torch OF Liberty At
that time the threat of the maintenance Of
the light by private contributions alone
forced the issue and since then Congress
has continued to provide for the lighting Of
the statue at night. 1t would seem as
though the treasury's light house board
were in position to know whether the
Hight is or is not aid to navigation and
II sn its decision In the regard should be ac-
ccptsd. But the sentimental side Of the
case can not be wholly ignored. In such a
case the actual cost is of small moment. A
way may be found out Of the difficulty by
divorcing the light altogether from the bea-
class. Why should 1t not be possible
frankly to put the statue upon a senti-
mental basis and illuminate 1t at night :?
BY proper arrangement of lights thrown
upward from the ground at the base Of the
statue from three sides. or perhaps four
the figure itself could be Illuminated
throughout the night. standing out in strik-
ing contrast against the blackness of the
sky and producing effect far more sug-
gestive and sentimental than the mere
sparkling Of a feeble lamp at the peak Of the
bronze torch

The House MINORITY.

The minority leadership of the House has
repeatedly been under fire of late, and it
has deserved some of the shots received. 1t
blundered in opposing appropriation to
shelter the soldiers In the Philippines. and
it's failure to prevent or break the force
of Mr.. Wheeler's performance on Friday
was amazing. .Bus it was thoroughly awake
on yesterday and should receive credit for
an exceedingly clever political play.
The move to support the bill for the re-
peal Of the war taxes was shrewd In the
circumstances. The republicans should
never have brought In the BILL and they
were equally at fault after doing that In
clapping on closure to the debate They
showed In the first instance a reckless dis
regard for all the heavy obligations Of the
government by a seventy mi.lion-dollar cut
In the revenues. and in the second instance
IN effect admitted the division In their own
ranks as to other measures The demo-
Gratis. after the proper maneuyering, SIM
ply voted for a reduction of taxation. They
had had no voice in shaping the meas
ure, they were now permitted none in
amending 1t. mere criticism would avail
nothing. and as between voting for or
against reduction of war taxes they
voted in the affirmative. But by their votes
they did not indorse the putting forward
of the measure for the purpose either of
preventing any revision Of trust tariff
schedules, or of defeating Mr.. Mckinleys
policy Of reciprocity.
The Senate, however, may be expected to
save the day, both for the party and the
country. This measure when 1t reaches that
body will undergo a very close scrutiny.
Where the brewers come in. and the cigar
dealers. and the stock gamblers and other
such men at the expense OF the people at
large, will be very carefully noted. Some
thing must be done for Cuba. Something
should be done on reciprocity lines in gen
eral Something ought to be proposed at
least in the way of bringing to book such
trusts as are selling to the foreign at
lower rate than to the home buyer. BY
the time therefore that the whole question
has been thoroughly threshed out In the
Senate We may expect to a bill more
i'll accordance with what the occasion really
calls for.
Some of the republican leaders are great
~ overworking the campaign promise about
repeating the remaining war taxes. The
premise made. and in reason ought to
be redeemed, but not at the expense Of
the piainest obligations of the hour. No
body Is bending double under the weight Of
war taxes.

The D. A. r.

The Daughters Of the American Revolu-
ton. now in session In this city. are wrest-
ling with serious problem, the manner Of
the solution OF which may materially affect
the future usefulness Of that patriotic and
eminently commendable organization.. The
suffrage questions confronting the House
republicans pale into insignificance in their
immediate bearing In comparison with The
knotty issue of more or less delegates to
the annual conventions Of the Daughters
Of the American Revolution. Under the
present provisions Of the constitution the
active membership Of SO 900 Is annually rep
resented at these meetings by 917 delegates
an average of one delegate for about 80
members Not only is this percentage re-
garded by some of the daughters as too
high. but the steady growth Of the body
threatens that in the course Of few years
the attendance at the conventions will be
so large as to become absolutely unman-
ageable. requiring a hall larger than Wash
ington-or any other city for that matter
can furnish The limitations Of the femi-
nine speaking voice are such that already
with a body of over 800 working delegates
the speakers are put to the greatest exer-
tions to secure a genuine hearing. Under the
present system all the 20 or more national
officers and as many more state regents
are ex-off1cio delegates. together with the
regents Of the Goo chapters. making alone
body of $50 delegates, subject to growth
as new chapters are formed. In addition
there Is delegate for each 100 members
of the chapters. save those which have less
than 100 members, which may send one
delegatesfor fifty members.
1t Is evident that II the dreams OF the
leaders of the organization are realized and
the body should grow In decade to a
membership Of 6O.0oO the annual conven-
tions will assemble upward OF $500 dele
gates under the existing system OF repre-
sentation. Accordingly this session OF the
daughters II to be devoted n the main to

how best to reduce the representation. Hav-
ing no prescribed rule of decennlal reap
portionments such as Is constitutionaliy in
voked by the national House OF Represen-
tatives, the case must now be met as an
original proposition. Several suggestions
have been advanced, all tending toward q
material reduction OF the proportionate
representation on the membership basis and
leaving the ex-officio representation un-
touched. The opponents to the general
plan of reduction aver that only through
proportionate membership representation
can the real sense of the organization be
given voice at Washington. The prospect
Is fair for an interesting matching Of wits
and perhaps for a prolonged discussion OF
the intricate question. In any case the
hope Is that some satisfactory method OF
securing fair national representation will
be found, to permit the daughters to pro-
ceed with their praiseworthy work of fos-
tering patriotic feeling throughout the
country unhampered by the vexed ques-
tions of suffrage and taxation without rep
resentation," now sorely agitating their
ranks.

Changing Inauguration Day.

From the Chicago News.
1t seems unlikely that there will be any
serious opposition to the constitutional
amendment now recommended by the SEN
ate providing for change in the date Of
President Roosevelt's term would be ex-
tended until the third Thursday In April
1905, subsequent inaugurations following
every four years on the same Thursday in
April.
Although March was the time first fixed
for the beginning and closing OF admin
istrations. Washington himself was first in
augurated on April 30. Indeed, 1t has been
necessary on several occasions to change
the date of Inauguration owing to the fact
that March occasionally falls on a Sun
day. This was the case In 1921 when
James Monroe entered upon his second
term on March 5. In 1849 Zachary Taylor
took office on March s for the same reason
and owing to the fact that the term of his
predecessor. Polk. expired at noon on Sun
day It has even been contended that the
office In the interim devolved upon one
David Rice AtchisOn. the presiding officer
of the Senate. who thus held the exalted
Office of President for the space of twenty
four hours. Rutherford B. Hayes was
quietly sworn in on Saturday. March g. the
formal Inauguration being deferred until
Monday. March 5.
The selection Of March 4 being purely ar
bitrary. with no special Significance, no one
is likely to object to the proposed change,
especially as 1t will obviate the concurrence
of inauguration days with Sundays.

prevailed. For until you are right. 1t is
Eever safe to go ahead.
This special committee, II appointed,
should execute its task with rigid impair
TALLY. That its labors will prove particu-
larly illuminative as to the lower southern
states stands to reason. The suffrage there
has been under the manipulation OF jug
giers for SO long a time that not only has
the Constitution OF the United States been
violated, but nearly every conceivable out
rage been inflicted on the humber class
of citizens. The suffrage laws. how
ever. of all the states will be within the
scope OF the committees instructions, and
everything Of interest bearing upon them
and their application should be noted and
brought to light.
The suffrage is at all times the most i'm
portant of our public questions. 1t should
therefore be safeguarded with scrupulous
fidelity. We have but recently had illustra-
ton of how bold men may become when
they deem it safe to play the tyrant at
the expense Of the helpless. Mr.. German
was a deposed and discredited leader anx-
ious for another commission, but confront
ed by such an Intelligent public sentiment
and so fair an election law at home that
success seemed impossible. However, find

but received no encouragement. When he
brought 1t forward again at the beginning
of this Congress he was quite as coldly
listened to. Some of his political associates
were afraid. while others in superior way
pooh-poohed the whole thing. Adopting the
humbugging cant OF the machine politicians
