Jealous of Prerogatives.

act all the President 5 bills in the form
he submits them. But senate and house
are loath to do that, for it would
amount to a surrender of legislative
prerogatives and would be going fur

with President Roosevelt. The sena-
tors of the interstate commerce commit
tee say they are likely to report the
interstate commerce bill about as the
President had it introduced in the SEN
ate, but they have been and still are
conducting hearings and studying some
other measures. They feel that they
must do this in justice to themselves
and to the senate and also that they
may be able to defend the President s
bill intelligently. For that and the
other bills the President has prepared

WASHINGTON, February Now
that the direction Of affairs at Wash
lngton is yielded more than ever to
President Taft, he is busving himself
IN determining the wisest program. This
has become something very much more
comprehensive than the legislative pro
gram. He is meeting the flood of in
quiries that pour in upon him. Not
only have senators and representatives
now consented to sit at his feet and
learn what should be done; the politi-
clans are now swarming across his
threshold to learn what he advises
about organization incident to the APP
preaching state and national cam
paigns.
The President has won this attitude
from congress after over two months
of battling. 1t may be something OF
a questionable victory, for matters had
come to the pass, where the big men
of senate and house despaired. They
are still despairing. They do not see
how the party can get on solid foot
ing for the contest over the next house
of representatives. The President is
the titular head of the party-a phrase
he is fond of using-and the respons
