AS one extreme is said to follow an
other, it may happen that the extra
ordinary record of the last session of
congress for positive accomplishment
may stand out in more marked contrast
with the inertia of the present session.
OF course, it could not be expected in
reason that any such bulk of progress
sive legislation could be perfected in
the short as was perfected in the long
meeting, but the conviction is deepen
ing that the work of the present session
is to be restricted practically to pass
ing the appropriations.
Obviously, If some of the measures
of first Importance left over from the
last session and others which 1t could
not consider were to be expedited so
as to have any chance OF enactment, it
would have to be done before the ad-
journment for holidays, but it has been
Independently noted by numerous COM
petent observers that every effort of

from the goth instant to January 2
will be followed by two purely formal
sessions, as is well understood, when
both houses will adjourn over to Mon
day, January Z, thus practically sub
tracing seventeen days from the work
ing time OF the session.
The prospect, in short, is that con-
yress will not seriously get busy before
the middle of January, leaving alto
gether only about six weeks for real
work. This will produce a state of
affairs, with appropriations having
right of way, exactly to the hand of
opposition to any measure. While,
perhaps, not by design, yet things seem

WESTERN FUEL FAMINE.
Placing the Responsibility where Il
belongs.

Baltimore News.
II Is dificult for people living I'm this
part OF the country to imagine what II
means to undergo a fuel famine on the
western plains. Regions rich in yield of
wheat and other farm crops may be so
bare of trees that one may not be seen
in an expanse Of miles. When blizzards
come they sweep the country with a vlo-
lence Of which we can form no idea IN
the east. To be without fuel means death.
Dispatches from North Dakota say that
already several persons have been frozen
to death; not from being caught out IN
exposed places but simply because there
was no material with which TO make a fire
to keep warm. There are places in which
farmers have already burned their fences
and are now sacrificing their outbuildings.
A tantalizing glow, rather than real
warmth, is obtained by burning hay, straw
and any other farm stun that is combusti-
BILE Lack of fuel for warmth at the same
time means lack OF cooked food to keep
up the bodily powers. In spite OF all make
shift expedients, entire families are re-
ported to have persisted In isolated farm
houses
In the little settlements the situation,
while bad, is not quite so appalling.
People can huddle together in the larger
houses and keep warm in themselves by
using other houses for fuel. But accounts
agree that acute DISTRESS Is widespread.
The situation is aggravated by the fact
that there have been heavy SHOWS. and al
some points in North Dakota It Is reported
that there Is now more snow on the ground
than at any time since 1886. And this Is
the time OF year when a raging blizzard
is liable TO come at any time.
The occurrence OF such fuel famine in
a country where supplies OF coal are in
limited, and among a people with abundant
means to pay for supplies, puts a heavy
responsibility upon the railroads. The
whole cause OF the trouble Is the break
down OF transportation facilities. and II
comes at time when the public mind is
excited by disclosures OF unlawful COM
blnations among railroads 10 mon5polize
coal production Excuses are being put
forth for the railroad failure that may
diminish the amount Of blame that Is
placed upon them, but the fact Of the
failure IL the crushing fact OF the situa-
ton, and it may have very serious con-
SEQUENCES.

There would be little likelihood Of
the adoption Of the plan, now cham
pioned by Senator Cullom in the senate
and causing a furry Of newspaper agi-
tation, to extend the presidential term
to six years with bar to reelection,
even II Il we're more strongly favored
by popular sentiment. The difhculties
in the way of amending the constitu-
ton are too great, and other changes
like that for direct popular election of
United States senators are Of so much
more Importance as to claim proceed
ence.
Though such extension Of the term
of the chief executive has often been
mooted, even as far back as in the con-
vention of 1897 which drafted the
national constitution, it has never
taken firm root in public conviction of
It's necessity. The common sense has
rather been that six years is not long
enough for good president, but is too
long for a poor one. The practice
which the constitution permits has
been, with rare exceptions, to accord to
a satisfactory president eight years, by
re-electing him for a second term OF
four years.
This rule enables the country after
only four years to get rid Of president
who is deemed unfit or an obstacle
to the will of the people. While there
is force in some objections to any
chance of reelection, the possibility OF
It, on the other hand, necessarily i'm
plies restraint upon arbitrary or
wrongful exercise Of executive power
Civil service reform, too, has to an
important extent removed the old evils
of executive patronage, while unbroken
precedent has so far limited the presi-
dents tenure to eight years.
A calm retrospect will approve the
wisdom Of the constitutional and Gus
tomary system, which has not pre-
vented the country from commanding
inestimable services for two terms OF
its Lincoln and it's Mckinley, but has
made 1t possible after four years to
dispense with a Buchanan or a John.
son, and such alternatives will hardly
be surrendered until some methods

from S4,9i5124,42S in 1896 to 1898, 1886, go in
1900, or over 40 per cent. During the four
years from 1900 to 1904 deposits Increased

80, 1905. the increase was 1876 per cent; the
increase in the current year over 1906 was
$S65, 900 coo, or about 7.6 per cent. The ratio
Of increase in individual deposits from 1896
to 1906 was nearly 147 per cent. The average
individual deposit in the United States per

The Oklahoma constitutional convention
paused long enough in its important work
recently to listen to the reading Of a COM
munication from William ]. Bryan giving

Bryan is not a citizen Of Oklahoma, but
that Is no restraint on hts scheme OF uni

not remarkable that he should inject him
self in the councils Of Oklahoma. The
wonder would have been had he overlooked
the budding state One of his suggestions
was the creation of board of corporations.
Possibly that would be WISE Anyhow, It
would make offices. He urged the conven-
ton to adopt the initiative and referendum
and to provide for the nomination of all
officers by the primary system. Many DEM
ocrats are said to still entertain the notion
that Mr.. Bryan will be their standard
bearer again in the next national campaign;
but they will hardly fail to notice that the
reforms he suggests have generally sprung
from the platforms OF the various forms OF
the third party to which he has belonged
Mr.. Bryan is an eloquent man Of fine
ability. Still, It would be well enough "a

disastrous advice he gave the democrats OF

BASE BALL AS A BUSINESS.
Fat Salaries Go 20 the Managers OF
the Game.

the Gbme.
Cleveland Leader.
The annual meetings of the two foremost
base ball organizations In the Countrywide
American league and the National league
were marked by additions OF 5000 a year
and $1,000 TO the salaries of their respec-
tive presidents. There was no objection
TO raising Ban" Johnson's pay from
$4,000 annually TO $4,000. The National
league club owners were equally ready to
give Harry Pullam $4,000 instead Of Sc, 900.
These two incidents show how great an
institution base ball has become, simply as
a business. In that respect they count
more than any possible sums paid to favor
ite players. A famous athlete may get q
small fortune every year without belong
ing 70 any organization, though not in base
ball. Public favor may make his time as
valuable as that of bank president. But
johnson and Pulliam are not popular Idols
Few base ball enthusiasts know either Of
them by sight. They are not paid their
fat salaries to please crowds but purely
for their work as business men at the head
OF great business organizations.
Base ball has become a business in which
millions of dollars are invested and from
which large profits are obtained. It's reve-
nues and expenses are both on a great
scale. It is growing bigger and more i'm
portant every year. In the financial and
commercial sense II is a national sport
which has developed into vast business
enterprise.
It pays to amuse the American people.
Base ball magnates have learned how to
make the most of that fact. Hence big
salaries IN the base bail world.
