y,rtually a Third Term.

Never before in the history of Amer!-
can politics was a Federal adminlstra-
ton so openly and unblushingly en-
gagged in the effort to control the sue
'cession to the presidency as now.
This is known to everybody In Wash
ington who gives thought to public
affairs. but 1t is not realized and reck-
oned with as 1t should be by the peo-
pie. 1t IS a serious matter when any
President Of the United States, no
matter what his virtues may be. un-
dertakes to do that which 1t belongs
to the people to perform.
President Roosevelt early proposed
to select his own successor, and chose
Mr. Taft as the favorite. ANY cand!-
date is entitled to such beneht as may
come from the favorable regard OF the
candidate should have exercised in his
behalf all the great power OF the ex-
ecutive office. 1t is fact that favors
within the power of the administra-
ton to grant have been made TO seem
at least dependent upon the agreement
OF those who hoped to receive them
to support the candidate of the White
House. 1t is fact also that threats
of prosecution by the Federal govern
ment in its various branches have
been more or less directly made to
serve as lever with which to secure
support for Mr.. Taft In such ways
opposition to the Taft program has
been overcome. The methods are not
Legitimate No matter what the viz
tues of the President may be, or what
the fitness OF his candidate for the
executive office. such use OF executive
power which has its hands upon every
branch OF the Federal government Is
an evil and a scandal.-Springfeld Re-

American travellers In Europe find a
great deal OF trouble with the omni-
present need Of tipping those from
whom they expect any service, how
ever slight, says the Youths Com

it much too far. or else attempt to re-

the ohseQuIous waiter.
OF quite an opposite ode Of thought
was another American visiting Lon
don for the first time. Gonded to des-

tips, he finally entered the Mushroom

THE cnUMDL1SG CAPITOL.

Three years ago the State Of yrr-
ginia appointed a commission, employ
ed three Arms OF architects, and spent
100000 to remodel the Capitol. With
all this intelligence, ability and fnan-
clal strength, there should have been
at least workman-like job. How
ever, Building Inspector Beck finds the
concrete fireproofing OF the iron beams
so bad as to be utterly worthless. The
cornices are crumbling away to the
damage of the whole building, while
the Leaks and dampness of some OF
the basement rooms have rendered
them unfit for occupation.
Fault enough is here, and while the
state can recover nothing. it can at
least fix the blame for this botching
of public work.

THE SENATE ARBITRATION
* TREATIES,

almost unobserved tile Senate has
ratified th.rty-seven treaties during
this session of Congress.
In the exercise OF this power of as
senting TO treaties the Senate from
the foundation of the government has
shown more care and scrutiny than 1t
has in the performance Of any other
duty. Whether this care and scrutiny
has always been judiciousy applied;
whether It has not at times resulted In
the rejection of treaties whose rattfi-
cation would have been Of benefit to
the nation, Is open to doubt.
The present Industry OF the Senate In
this direction is, therefore. most re-
markable. What is still more remark
able, eleven OF these treaties-with
Great Britain. Japan, France. Italy.
Spain, Switzerland. Mexico. Portugal,
Netherlands, sweden and Denmark
are treaties of arbitration.
The fact is most significant. as 1t
marks distinct change In the SEN
ate's attitude toward general arbtra-
+ llOn lTedtleS'
Heretofore when a treaty of that
character has been submitted to the
Senate, that body has so cmasculated
it, so deprived it of serviceable pro-
visions. that 1t was rendered useless for
effect1ng its beneficent purpose. Such
was the fate Of arbitration treaties
negotiated only three years ago with
England, italy, France. Germany and
Austria.
This failure OF the Senate to take e
step toward decreasing the chances OF
war has not probably been due to
hostility to the principle of arbitration,
or to doubt of the efficiency of that
principle in materially reducing those
chances, but rather to its tenacity in
maintaining its authority.
A treaty of arbitration necessarily
takes away portion of this authority;
ii refers the settlement of certain
questions at issue with other nations
to the determination of another tribu-
nal. Naturally the Senate has been
loath to relinquish even to a small de-
gree this important treaty-making
power. which. under the Constitution
makes 1t sharer in executive func-
tions, and it has invariably declined to
diminish its control over foreign re-
lattons.
AS these treaties have not yet been
made public. to what extent they COM
init the government to arbitration is,
OF course, unknown. Probably they
touch nothing more vital than points
OF law and questions arising under
existing treaties.
Isull, If no more than this, their
ratification is unquestiopably an act OF
nbnegation on the part Of the Senate
as praiseworthy as it is promising OF
the future.
OF means tAet the obstacle which at
one time sperpsd- IS forbid hope that
the United States could ever become
n party to a general arbitration treaty
is not immovable. and that the world
vide movement for the preservation
iof peace has advanced another step.

SUCCESSFULLY FIGHTING TUBER-
CULOSIN


The fight against tuberculosis Is one
Of the encouraging facts OF our mod
ern life. New York Is rejoicing over
the. Cassidy bill. which requires fun,i-
CATION of all apartments which have
been occupied by persons afflicted
with tuberculosis before new tenants
can he permitted to move in. It is
such preventive measures as this
that give ultimate hope OF the extermi-
nation Of the white plague. And it is
the publicity derived from such ex-
hibits as that which was held In Rich
mond last yeal, and from the infor-
press. that makes people anxious to
assist in the glorious crusade against
the greatest modern enemy to life. 1t
will not do, howev.:. t. leave the
whole work Of prevention to the Sooh
intentions or selfish impulses OF prop
erty owners, as New York has found
out.

apartments, and since january list has

nuisance, It should by the exercise OF
its police power, safeguard the lives OF
those who ignorantly bug or rent a
room that may prove a death trap.
The fight against yellow fever in
the South before its true cause was
discovered shows how hopeless it is
to struggle in the dark against deadly
germs. When, however, the mosquito
as the fever angel of destruction was
discovered, yellow fever was stamped
out. The problem of destroying
tuberculosis is by no means SO simple
but the fumigation now being done by
the City Board OF Health will go far
towards controlling the ravages Of this
disease.
