TIE RERKE RESOLTTION.

II was on the whole. fortunate that the Re
publican National Convention voted down the
amendment 10 the report Of the committee on
rules proposing change in the basis of repre-
senIation in national conventions. In the first
place the convention WAS not prepared 10 take
snap Judgment on 50 vital an alteration IN party
rules The delegates had not studied the ques
ton in all its aspects, and the resolution offered
by Mr. Burke. Of Pennsy vania. and defeated,
both in the committee on resolutions and in the
convention bore decided marks of overhaste
gotten entirely. in framing his proposal to base
Representation in national conventions the

and Idaho-women have the suffrage well rs

IN disguise Of woman suffrage
II was pertinently said by Governor Wilson
of Kentucky and other speakers against the
Burke innovation that il would tend TO make the
Republican party more than ever sectional
organization. There is force in this view, for
the hope of every party is 10 make converts in
hostile territory and to build itself up in sec
tions held by the opposition. The idea Of rep
resentation based on voting power is within
limits reasonable one, but IL ignores the neces-
,>ity of proselyting and makes no concessions to
-s complications OF our system Of balances be-
tween the states, such, and the nation. The
principle of representation the basis Of vot
ing power can he applied only 10 a limited ex-
tent. and il should be carefully considered
since il must be accommodated to the oyereXtep
sion of the suffrage in some states as well as 10
the restriction Of the suffrage Of Others-before
II is accepted as settled Republican policy.
The narrow margin by which the Burke amend
.nent was defeated proves, however, that the Re
publicsns Of the North and West are thoroughly
dissatisfied with the manner in which the Re
nubcans of the Gulf States are dischargng
their obligations 10 the party. The Tribune has
repeatedly said that the Republican organizs-
tions In those states have failed In their duty

There is much fault found with Prrvident Roose-

Roosevelt Is citizen and the President. AS a

AS the President what has he done to promote the
nomination of MIR. Taft or to prevent the nornina-

has he made refused to make, what removal
has he made. to help the nomination of Mr.. Taft,

The superlntendent OF motive power of the
subway system tries to excuse the emission of
smut smoke by the powerhouses on the ground
that it is necessary to sem-bituminous coal
for the sake of its superior heating qualities.
The question is not. however, whether 1t Is
necessary to burn soft coal. but whether It is
necessary to emit black smoke. There Is good
authority for the belief that soft coal can be so
burned TO give off no seriously offensive
smoke. To-day" says official report of the
United States geological survey. many steam
power plants IN tho United States are burning
"bituminous coal practically without smoke.
This has been brought about by improving the
design of the furnaces and by careful attention
ION the part of the hremen" We may not object
TO the of soft coal. but II is fitting to OBJ
ject TO the pollution OF the air through faulty
furnaces and inefficient stoking

ANOTHER SUPPLY MEASURE
The Legislative, Executive and Judic-
 iary Bill Passes the House

Washington. Feb. 1.-The legislative executive and judiciary appropriation bill, one of the large supply measures of the government was passed by the house today after several days discus sion. The amount carried by it as was practically reached by the committee is S32. .336,573.
 There was a lively debate over the provision giving discretion to the heads of departments to remove or re- duce incapacitated employees of the government. When this provision was reached Mir. GOulden of New York made a point of order against it. The chair sustained the point and the pro vision went out Of the bill immediately afterward and the house adopted the following provision by way of a substi- ute: The appropriation herein made for officers, clerks and persons em- ployed in the public service shall not be available for compensation for any person incapacitated for performing the service for which such person has been employed"
 The chair ruled oAt an amendment by MT. Chaney of Indiana. providing for the payment of pensions at 50 per cent of this salaries to all persons dis charged under under the substitute provision adopted, and an assessment of a half per cent annum on the sala- ries of the employees retained, to con- stitute a fund for pensions.
 The reading of the bill was conclud- ed and it was about to pass when MT. Hitchcock of Nebraska moved to have it recOmmitted with instructions to re- port back with an amendment requir- ing the secretary of the department of commerce and labor to cause to be in cluded in its reports of special agents and investigation of trade conditions abroad and information showing the prices at which American made goods are sold abroad to merchants and at retail. The motion prevailed and the bill passed.
