DEATH or REPRESENTATIVE
WILLIAM c. LOWERING.

The death from pneumonia of Rep
resentative William c. Lowering Of
Massachusetts removes from the House
of Representatives one Of its members
who cannot well be spared Mr.. Low
ering was the oldest member of the
Massachusetts delegation IN the House
and one of the oldest members OF the
lower branch OF Congress. He was IN
his seventy-fifth year and was serving
his seventh consecutive term. Though
far along IN years, Mr. Lowering had
not grown stale in intellect because of
his age. He was not only mentally
alert and vigorous, but he had ideas
on legislative matters which were ad-
vanced and fully abreast Of the times.
Plenty of legislators there are with
whom increasing years mean increasing
narrowness and prejudice, but 1t was
not so with Mr. Lowering. He was one
OF the progressive members OF the
House and a thorough believer IN re
form in the rules He was an active
iusurgent against the existing system
OF domination of the House by a small
coterie of its membership and his loss
/ unfortunate for those who believe the
time has come TO overhaul the rules,
relieve the Speaker Of his inordinate
power, and make the House the self
governing body Of Representatives that
II was intended to be by the Constitu-
tion and the wise fathers Of the Repub-
lie who framed that instrument.

These increases rus from So per cent
for coal TO 100 per cent for -four, best
eggs, poultry, potatoes, and wood for
fuel.
A phase of the question not often
considered Is that families OF station
airy and small incomes use less of an
article in proportion as its price rises.
When, for example, ham costs 80 per
cent more, these consumers buy 25 per
cent less-wbich makes the total spent
for this item the same 4 family now

WHERE THE INSURGENTS
STOOD FROM The FIRST.

IF there has been any doubt in the
mind of any intelligent person as to
where the House insurgents stand with
respect to such progressive legis alton
IS the President has recommended to
Congress, that doubt IS now dispelled
by the visit of Representatives Hayes
and Gardner TO the White House, with
authority to say for the insurgents
that they viii support the principal
mea sures Nh Taft wants enacted.
These include the bill for additional
railroad regulation, the postal savings
bill, the conservation bills, and the
Rnti-injunction recommendation.
There was, indeed. small reas on
why the insurgents should send an en-
bassy To the White House to tell the
President these things In spite of an
endless amount Of Misrepresentation
there has never been the slightest aues-
tion that the House insurgents stood
ready at every moment since the open
ing Of Congress to help enact every bit
o. progressive legislation the President
stands for and which the Chicago plat
form calls for, with the exception of
such measures as ship subsidy and ma
tionaI Incorporation, on which there has
always existed the widest variance of
opinions in both House and Senate.
An attempt. has been made. and to
It q certain part of the press has lent

the way of getting such progressive
legislation as the President has asked
Congress to pass It Is doubtful If the

who fought last summer for real revision
. OF the tariff in accordance with the
promises of the Chicago platform. The
Insurgents are In earnest for more
stringent railroad regulation. for an
honest postal savings bank bill. for
real conservation, and for anti-iniunc-
ton legislation which will relieve at

which labor complains of.
The opp nents of such legislation are

sidered the appeal of Rev. Hubbard
from the order of the trustees OF the
church. terminating his pastorate, ut an
all night session. during which better
personalities were INDUCED in, and today
returned verdict that the dismissal was
illegal. The trustees were ordered to re-
instate Hubbard. The case has been filed
with sensational developments from the
outset. Mrs. Haggart took exception to
4 sermon the minister preached last win
ter, dcnouncing dancing and card play
ing. During prayer meeting she took
occasion to say she considered knowl
edge of how to play "bridge," and to
dance, essential in the education of a
child, and that her children were being
so taught.
The following Sunday Rev. Hubbard
denounced Mrs. Haggart from the pulpit
and told her in SO many words that she
was not Christian. Laterhe demanded
that she either have card playing and
dancing at her home stopped or with
draw from the church. The congrega-
ton divided into two hostile camps

The two men, without permits, pene'
