Some Of the Senator's who urged an

formidable part of the navy. 1t is
best not to make mystery of such
matters in the United states. nor do
the people understand that they are at
the mercy of diplomatic programs. Sc
cretely prepared by any of our own
official representatives. Tho people
alone ordain war; they must fight 1t
and pay for it. Congress alone can
declare war. If there are any dam
gerous obscurities in the Pacific, the
people should be told what they, are
and not be urged to go into blind
pool armament as a precaution against
some hidden menace. BY the voyage
OF a powerful fleet to the Pacific we
are put there on a good defensive foot
ing. We could strike back at once

To filibuster. according to webster's
Dictionary, is ito delay legislation BY

John sharp Williams. the minority

sentatives, would say that accepting
this definition, lie Is not maintaining n
tilibuster. for he is not endeavorlng to
delay legislation, but to compel the
Republican majority to consider the
suggestions for legislation which Pres
ident Roosevelt has made.
He says that the filibuster will end
the moment the Republican majority
in the House has given permission for
consideration OF the campaign public
fly bill. bill to put wood pulp and
print paper on the free list and the

MAYOR MecAnrny,s MESSAGE.

Inlwhat will probably be his last en-
tended message Mayor Mccarthy has
again shown why his admirers think
he is the best Mayor this city has had
in generation
He sees what he thinks ought to
lbe done-and having seen, he speaks
j out. To see and to speak; to have
open. eyes and a courageous tongue .
to study the welfare Of all the citizens
and not to truckle to or fawn upon
any. class--ti1at is to be an unusually
valuable citizen. but not reelected
Mayor.
All of the Mayors recommendations
we cannot discuss here-but to some
we direct especial attention.:
A year ago The Times Dispatch
urged the Council to make in Byrd
Park an athletic field for the use OF
all the citizens. The space is there.
the cost is inconsiderable when COM
pared with the advantages 10 be de-
rived by those who now play in back
and this can and should be done at
once.
As to cheaper gas and water, we are
not prepared to accept the figures the
Mayor names in the cost of gas. but
we do most heartily agree that as the
citizens bought. paid for and now
maintain the Gas Works by their
taxes. they should be entitled to the
lowest cost price at which gas can be
manufactured without mourning a loss.
The final cost of administering any
city depends on the taxes derived from
the real and personal property. Ii
the cost of water and gas were re-
duced the increased burden of taxes
on the householders would not, III our
opinion. equal the saving in gas and
water bills.
Mayor Mccarthy has made sugses-
tion here that Will be heard from
again. and ought to be.
