penSeS and Miscellaneous Bills

Olympia-By unanimous vote and
without comment or debate, the low
er house Of the legislature adopted
resolution impeaching James H.
Schively, state insurance commits
sioner, and authorized the appoint
ment of a committee of seven men,
bers to formulate the charges.
This action was taken after it was
learned that the house bill abolish
ing the Office of insurance commits
siOner had not succeeded in passing
the senate and was likely to be de-
feated in that body. There is pos
sibility of a compromise, however,
between the senate factions by which
the house bill may be adopted and
thus pave the way for final adjourn
ment bv the end of the week.
After the charges against Schive-
ly have been formulated and accept
ed by the house and presented to the
senate by the house committee ap-

ment proceedings, the house as
| body will have nothing further to
do with the impeachment trial. A
quorum of the senate membership
is necessary at all sessions during
the Impeachment trial, and a two
thirds vote of the entire member
ship will be necessary to convict.
The committee that will formulate
the impeachment articles are:
Sparks of Clark, Lambert Of What
com, Hubble of Kittitas, Scott of
Adams, Whalley of King and Edge
and Buchanan of Spokane.
Penalty Is Removal.
The penalty for Impeachment is
removal from Office and the emolu-
ments thereof The senate sits as a
court of exclusive jurisdiction and
there is no appeal from its decision.
The rules of procedure adopted
by the senate are from the standing
rules of the United States senate in
impeachment trials. According to
these rules the presiding officer will
announce his decisions in admission
of evidence without debate unless
the doors are closed for deliberation.
In the latter event each member may
speak but once to the question, and
the time Is limited to 10 minutes for

lions and to Is minutes on final
questions.
One-fifth OF the members may ap-
peal from the ruling of the chair
and majority may override.
But one person on each side will
be permitted to question a witness
and the senators will not be permit
ted to PROFOUND questions to the
presiding officer. The final argu-
ment will be limited to two speakers

ApprOpriates $4,000.

Estimates expressed in debate
placed the length of the session from
three weeks to three months. and
one of the first moves made after it
became known that impeachment
would prevail as the course OF action
was the increase by the senate of
the appropriation of $4,000 passed
by the house for legislative expenses
to the sum of $4,000, and ;h= house
concurred in this amendment.
The house passed the senate bill
appropriating 1927 to pay the ex-
penses of Gov. Cosgrove's funeral,
and a house resolution permitting
the A.-Y.-P. Commission to pay from
its appropriation the cost of social
functions rendered other commits
sions.
Both houses passed a bill making
the state treasurer custodian Of all
the funds of the state college. The
bill received but two opposing votes
in the house and passed unanimous
ly in the senate.

DoIliver and Aldr;ch.

DOlliyer and Aldr:ch.
AS we understand the debate j,
between Senator Dolliver and /
Senator Aldrich it comes to this:
Shall Congress represent the
people Of the United States or
particular interests that have
become the beneficiaries of tar
if juggelry? Mr.. Aldrich HIM
self intimates that Mr.. Dolliver
is weekly succoming to a popu-
lar demand. That may be true,
but it is a severe indictment of
Aldrich that all his claims to
craftsmanship rests on his re-
sistance to popular demands |
and his persistent champion
ship of the interests. He isl
above temporary expedients be-
cause he holds his state in SUI
lection to the worst kind of ma
chine politics and has the per.
manent backing Of the male
factors of great wealth" This,
of course, is far from saying
that he is above demagogey.
He might keep his impregna-
bic position and he morally in
ferior to many a demagogue.
Such holiness as his requires
no courage. 1t is the holiness
of a man who lives inside forti-
fications and who has his living
provided for.
On the score of courage much
greater credit belongs to Sena-
tor Dolliver. He has dared to
enter the list against establish
ed abuses and established leader
ship. He is resisting powerful
and corrupting influences whose
heart and soul and purpose are
all summed up in the one word
"greed." He is trying to over
come sinister forces that feel
that they are dominent in his
party and that propose to be-
come masters of the party from
now on. However much he may
be affected by political exigen-
cies in his own state he is fight
ing q real fight against the in
trenched foe of fair legislation
when he might content himself
with the usual party cant of the
prudent majority among our
statesmen.
But, more important than
anything else, he is on the right
side. This Aldridge bill as it
has been framed up would give
US without doubt a tariff of

New York. Feb. 19.-The significant feature of the week in the cotton mar ket has been the power of resistance shown by the market, despite dullness of trade and speculation.

Beneficial rains have fallen in the eastern sec tion of the belt, and according to Tex as advices, the recent rainfall in that State has been much greater than was supposed. But, In some quarters the idea holds that the four months Texas drought has been after all only par tially broken, and that not a few sec- tions of that State need a good drench- ipg. Large spot interests have bought heavily of May, July and October, alId spot trade has lately improved in some parts of the South. March commit ments are believed to be very large. Some traders believe that the next crop will show q material decrease as result, either of the winter thoughts, or depressions by weevIl. On the other hand. many think that the boil weevi1 danger East of the Mississippi is being greatly exaggerat- ed, that the crop is being under esti- mated and the crop consumption over estimated. Latterly. however, re- ceips have declined and exports have been liberal.
