THE IMPENDING ORGY.

For years it has been customary to bewail
for some days after the Fourth Of July the dis
comfort, the CONGREGATIONS, the maimings and
the deaths which are attendant upon our
method of celebrating Independence Day, and
to demand with fine show OF returning rea-
son and righteous indignation, that the repe-
titfon of such miseries shall be forbidden by
law; and then to do nothing practical about
II or to ignore or defeat the efforts of those
who do seek to abate the evil. We are eloquent
over the fniquity of theft after the horse has
been stolen and versatile and enterprising with
plans for putting burglar proof locks upon the
door but the door remains lockless and all we
really do is to put another horse in the stall
to be stolen next year. Never were the Ban
dar-Log more prolific of grandiose schemes
and more tickle and impotent in their achieve
ment.
Last year the orgy was somewhat more pro-
longed, more barbarous and more destructive
than usual 1t began early and lasted for
weeks. especially on Sundays eliminating. of
course on independence Day itself, after which
for a fortnight there accumulated long roll
of juvenile mortality. More than common at
tention was paid to it. too, and there were ex-
ceptionally vigorous demands for prohibitory
legislation These were made by insurance
companies by health officers and by the DO
lice. There were brave resolutions, too. that
something should surely this time be done
Rut now? 1t is the old story of the Bandar-
Log. Nothing Of real Importance has been
done. We are only a month from independence
Day, with every prospect of repeating, and even
increasing, the record of last year
This is humiliattng and d1sheartenlng. Yet
even now the possibility Of relief at least ii

great measure upon the quickness with which

A nueiItst's success is measured mainly by the

The eyes of the world will to-day largely be
turned toward the German capital where the
Crown Prince of Prussia takes unto himself
wife The love which all the world is said to
give to q lover may be freely bestowed upon
the bridegroom and the bride, for it is to De
believed that they are lovers in truer sense
than many other royal and imperial couples
have been. They are both so young, and, de-
spite their social and political rank, have been
in the lmelight of publicity SO little that the
world does not know much about them per-
sonally but what 1t does know is of sort to
inspire rejoicing with them In their joy and
happy expectations for their future.
1t is the inevitable lot of princes that all
their doings are regarded from public as
we'll as a personal point Of view. In this case,
therefore, we must discern in the bridal pair
not merely two affectionate and attractive
young Germans, but future King and Queen
of Prussia and German Emperor and Empress.
Fortunately, in that view the spectacle OF their
marriage seems as suspicious as in the per
sonal view The prince is said to cherish the
fine ideals of duty which are characteristic of
the House Of HobsnzoIlern and to give full
promise of becoming, not soon, we hope, a
worthy successor to his three distinguished an
cestors on the imperial throne. 1t is an espe
cially happy omen that his bride is mem
Der of a German family, the daughter of one
of the reigning sovereigns of the empire The
first German Empress was a German princess
but the second English, and the third and
present one is more Danish than German. Il
will maze for imperial solidarity for the fourth
to be a member of a dynasty which, though
Slavonic in remote origin, ranks as one Of the
very oldest In the whole German circle. L
must also have a happy effect upon the senti
ment of fellowship among the federated States
for the heir apparent Of the greatest of then
all to take for his wife princess of one Of
the least, thus recognizing little Mecklenburg
Schwerin, a realm too small to be divided int
provinces or counties. as the peer Of might!
Prussia From both the personal and the pub
lie points of view, therefore, the world ma.
| look upon the nuptiaIs at Berlin with kindnes
| and confidence.

AN EXTRA SESSION.

disposition has been shown in some quarters
TO question the value of an extra session OF
Congress IL that session is not to be called until
after the November elections It has been said
that little or nothing can be gained By insisting
on curtain raiser meeting of not more than
three weeks. The game, it is argued. is not
worth the candle, especially if the members of
the two branches find way TO vote themselves
double mileage allowances
But this view, though plausible, is based on
serious misconceptions. It is not likely, in the
first place, that Congress will authorize the pay
ment OF double mileage. Technically an excel
lent case can be made out BY those who hold
that one session cannot be merged in another
and that mileage Is coIlectible for each separate
session, no matter how minute the interval
which marks the separation. Two years ago
only constructive recess interviewed be-
tween the termination of the first and the be-
ginning or the second session of the 5Sth Con
gress- The House of Representatives decided
by vote however, that there had been an act
ual break. and that its Appropriations Com
mittee had followed precedent in reporting a
second mileage appropriation. Then the House
unanimously waived its claim TO compensation.
a year later it reversed itself and voted to &C
cept constructive mileage" But the Senate re-
fused TO sanction this payment and the milea &c
grab paragraph persisted In conference With
such record confronting it, and with the
knowledge that popular sentiment is becoming
more and more intolerant Of reflections from
scrupulous conduct in public life, the new Con
gress will hardly venture to stand on technicali
ties and vote itself compensation for travelling
expenses incurred only In ina gination
II is equally beside the point to argue tina
legislation will be IN no way expedited by bring
ing the two houses together three or four weeks
ahead OF the regular session date. AS a matte
Of fact the gain made is more material than {
seems to be on the surface 1t is a common
place in Washington that each new Congress
which assemblies on the first Monday In Decem
Der wastes practically the first five weeks o
the session Before the committees can be an
nounced the holiday season comes on, and ittl
or no work is undertaken until nearly the mid
die of January. II Congress meets In any othe
month than December there is no valid excus
for Delaying organization, and within two week
