| ton is to proceed at least for another
year and apparently the report of the
commission will not be made before
| that time. Unless the congressional
elections next year go against the Re
publicans there viii hardly be any at
tempt at financial legislation under two
years. From all of which it will be
understood that the commission is lay
ing the broadest foundations for an
educational campaign probably that has
ever been attempted in this country,
unless one except Mark Hanna s great
educational campaign preceding Nc
Kinley's first election to the presi-
dency.
Meanwhile the opposition is rapidly
forming. 1t is focusing around the idea
that the AIdrich commission eontem-
plates advocating a central bank. Many
Democrats, in fact most of the Demo-
Gratis, are ranging themselves with the
opposition and they will have Republi
can company. Foremost in the Republi-
can category is Representative Charles
\. Fowler of Elizabethtown, n. j. He
was formerly chairman of house bank
ing and currency, but Speaker Cannon
deposed him, because he was an insur
gent on finance and other topics. Sen
ator Aldrich claimed he could not serve
on a commission of which Mr.. Fowler
was a member and accordingly Mr.
Fowler was not placed on the finance
commission. Lately he has been trailing
Senator Aldrich around the West and
making speeches in opposition to the
ideas the senator advanced. There will
be some debates on the central bank
idea during the approaching session.

Mail Special to The Advertiser)
WASHINGTON, November 22.-The
President is approaching this busy sea
son with great compOsure. He does
NOT allow work to worry him, as so
MANY men in high places do He re-
turned from Norfolk Sunday morning,
where he had been since Thursday
night in attendance upon deepwater-
ways convention, spent the forenoon
clearing up his accumulated cor
respondenee. went horseback riding in
the afternoon with Capt. Archibald
Butt. his army aid, and devoted the
evening to his family. Of late he is
taking up again with horseback riding,
lust as he used to do when he was
secretary of war 1t occupies less of
his time than going to Chevy Chase
for golf game. but gets him quite
as much away from mis- work and at
fords him some daily recreation.
Speaker Cannon, the central figure
OF national aualrS next 10 tue L 4coA
dent, has not yet come TO town. 1t Is
only matter Of few days before
he will be on hand to open his Office
in the southeast corner of the capitol.
The house is already fully organized
and the committees appointed. But for
the fact that there was an extra ses-
sion last summer this would not be
the ease and the first week or two of
the session would be devoted to pre-
liminary matters. chiefly the selection
of committees. As soon as the Speaker
calls the members to order and the
chaplain has delivered his invocation,
the house will be ready for business
and can proceed as soon as the com
mittees have any business prepared for
consideration.
However. this does not mean. that
very much will be accomplished be-
fore the holidays Christmas comes on

Monetary Commission.

The meeting of the monetary com
mission, held in Washington late last
week, brought number of prom. nent
congressman to town. Senator Aldrieh
who has been lecturing on finance out
through the West, was one of them
There will be numerous meetings of the
commissioners during the winter as it
is claimed the more the commission
studies the monetary situation the more
they see ahead to do. just for the
present their activities viii be directed
much toward educating the public up
TO the Importance of some financial
legislation. Senator Aldricb s tour was
for that purpose. Other members of
the commission have been making ad-
dresses. Probably Representative John
W. Weeks of Massachusetts has done
as much as anybody except Senator
Aldrich, to that end. The commission
now has completed a goodly number of
papers and articles on various phases
of the banking situation. These are
to be given to the newspapers, in the
hope of encouraging publication and
discussion during the winter. The
members of the commission disclaim
having formulated any bill thus far or
having any particular favor for this
or that specific plan. Nevertheless the
conviction is general that the leading
members of the commission are pretty
well committed TO the central bank -
idea and that they are masking their
conclusions against the day when the
public shall have discussed the central
bank idea, gained some further infor-
nation about the necessity of financial
legislation, and shown readiness to
acquiesce in such a measure.
Looking Abroad.
The work the commission has been
and is doing in furthering information
about financial systems in divers coun-
tries and the operations thereof is
most comprehensive. All this will be
printed and enough has already been
gathered to make couple score of
large volumes. The commission includes
about thirty senators and representa-
tives-the members Of the banking and
currency committee of the house and
OF the finance committee of the senate
at the time it was created some two
years ago. Since then several members
of those committees have been retired
to private life and have been continued
on the commission al good salaries.
Among such are ex-senator Henry NJ.
Teller. Of Colorado. and Representa-
sive Jesse NJ. Overstreet. Of Indiana
and Robert Bonynge, Of Colorado They
are devoting most of their time TO the
work of the commission as are num-
Der of experts whom the commission
has employed.
No Legislation.
There seems to be no intention Of
trying TO enact a financial bill at the
forthcoming session Of congress, in
spite Of the Democratic statements TO
the contrary. The campaign Of eduea-

congress vii! take its customary ho!i-
day recess for two weeks beginning
about December %. That viii give
two and half weeks of the session
for the old year. The committees can
not get any of the larger measures,
other than appropriation bills, ready
first week the house appropriations
completed. There will be vehicles for
some general discussion and there viii
be no great haste about reaching a
final vote. The conferences on the
President s anticorporation measures
will be continued through that period
and the "shapingup process will
bring about some definite ideas regard
ing the winters program.
Getting Peaceable.
The indications are that the two Re-
publican factions are gradually falling
into line with the President s views
On the whole the attitude of senators
and representatives towards the Presi-
dent is friendly. This is quite as much
the case as it was last March when
he came into office. He has constant
lv made friends among the lawmakers
of both branches. There is little dis
position toward fractions opposition.
He will not find it as difficult TO move
the senate or the house to action as
did President Roosevelt for whom the
congressional leaders had no liking. Mr..
Roosevelt had to overcome deal of
legislative inertia, where President
Taft will have to put forth no effort
whatever. In the long run that makes
deal of difference and should help the
President materially toward getting
the legislation he wants. 1t does not
mean he will have no opposition with
in the Republican ranks. There Will
he active opposition and it will make
itself felt in numerous ways. The
greatest pressure win be brought to
bear through delays and postponements
and in pleas for more time for CON
sideration.

quiesce without struggle in any prop

selves. James j. Hill, of the Great
Northern, and W. C. Brown, president
of the New York Central, have already
been in town to tell the President of
their objection to this and other pro-
posed railroad legislation. They will
have sympathizers in senate and house,
so that the administration must go over
numerous hurdles before the proposed
bills are signed by the speaker and the
Vice President and sent up Pennsylva-
MIA avenue to the White House.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1909-12-08
Careful Work.

The President is having these meas
ures all carefully drawn. He has a
very competent corps of men to do that
work, as was evidenced when he put
out the corporation tax as a proviso for
the Aldrich-Payne tariff law. Probably
no other President has had such a com
petent team in framing corporation
measures as Mr. Taft now has in At
torney General Knox. Secretary of War
Dickinson and Secretary of State Knox.
When necessary he also calls in his old
colleague of the cabinet, Senator Root,
of New York.
These men, with the President, who
is adept in preparing legislation, not
only plug up all the legal loopholes but
they sound the sentiment of the legis-
lators with whom they have to deal and
frame their provisos accordingly. Presi-
dent Roosevelt commanded the services
of able lawyers but he was not always
successful in ascertaining what the SEN
ate and house would stand for and in
getting his bills into acceptable shape.
Arranged Legislation.
The practice of arranging legislation
outside of congress has now become
pretty well established and there is less
opposition to it than there used to be.
Some very wise legislators of both par
ties think the practice unwise. They
say it enhances the power of the execu-
tive beyond the plans of the trainers of
the Constitution and that it also de
grades the legislative branch of gov
eminent, which was intended TO have
coordinate power with the executive
and judiciary. Be that as it may.
President Roosevelt arranged legisla-
ton outside of congress. He justified
it by the necessities of the hour. Pres
ident Taft is following closely in his
footsteps in that regard. OF course
the executive has legislative functions
under the constitution by virtue of his
veto power. That fact is argued as
giving the President warrant for get
ting through senate and house such
measures as he is willing to sign. Fur
thermore he is the leader of his party
and in such compact organization as
the Republicans have, the voice Of the
leader is pretty nearly supreme over all
branches of the government save the
judiciary. The practice Of arranging
legislation is not likely to cease, at
least. as long as any one party has the
presidency and both branches Of con
gress-,
