ONE-NAN RULE.

The completeness with which the
House of Representatives has tied itself
up in the red tape of the present system
of rules was illustrated when action was
sought last Monday on the parag graph in
the sundry civil appropriation bill deal
ing with the pay and duties of the Tariff
Board. The paragraph in question pro-
vided an increased appropriation for the
work of the board and defined that work
as the Attorney General has defined it
under the authorization inserted in the
Payne tariff law. There ought to have
been no serious question of the pertinen-
cy of the provision or of the right Of the
House to consider it If it wanted to.
Yet by the mere dictum of the chairman
of the committee of the whole such con-
sideration was denied. and that dictum
was allowed to stand as representing
the opinion of the House.
We think that Mr.. Mann was wrong in
his construction of the Tawney pro-
vision. But even conceding that there
was some basis for his point Of view
(since people will always differ in con-
STRUNG laws his ruling should have
been in all fairness subject TO reversal
by the House itself. He differed with the
Attorney General and the chairman of
the Committee on Appropriations. Why
should his opinion be regarded as infal-
lible and theirs rot worthy Of considera
ton? If the majority of the members Of
the House disagreed with Chairman
Mann and wanted to act on the Tawney
proposition, why should they not have
had the opportunity to do so? In the
Senate majority reverses similar de-
,cisions by the chair whenever it sees
fit. and control in such matters in the
House also ought TO rest with the ma
jority and not with chairman ap-
pointed by the Speaker. There is too
much one man rule in the House. The
mere say-so of the chairman of the COM
mittee of the whole should not inhibit
that body from considering any propo-
sition which it believes to be pertinent
and legitimate.

oGious vices. The third. FARMER
George" had conspicuous virtues, pul
also disastrous fraities of intellect ana
temperament. AS for the fourth. he ful-
filled his reverend preceptors prophecy
of becoming partly polished gentleman
and partly an accomplished blackguaru.
1t will not be difficult for the latest OWL
er of the name TO be the best.
The name by which the new queen Is
to be known is happily chosen. In re-
nouncing for public purposes the name
of Victoria. she fittingly leaves to her
illustrious kinswoman the sole owner
ship of that name among the queens OF
England. and in electing that OF Mary
she recalls to the throne a name whlcn
has been borne there before, notably by
two, but which also she will douDfless
adorn with far greater honor ana aHec-
ton than any of her predecessde. 1t Is
of interest to observe the revival OF the
title Of Queen Mother for Alexandra. q
title which has not been used since Stu
art days. when it was borne by Henri
eta Maria, the widowed consort OF
Charles I. The new heir apparent pears
the name of Edward. promising thus an
alienation of the two names thus far
borne by kings of the SaIe-Coburg
dynasty. However much or little there
may abstractly be in name, there IS
much historical suggestion in the names
of kings. between which and the actual
characters of the reigns there sometimes
seems to be a reflex rela tionship, though
in the present case it is to be expected
that the omen will be absent

THE NAMES OF KINGS.

Kings have as rule no sllrnames, or
if they have they ignore them and the
world forgets them, and their given
names are often void of dynastic or
hereditary significance. Edward VII
had only the slightest family relation
ship to former kings of that name, who
belonged to the houses of Plantagenet,
York and Tudor, not to bark back to
the three Saxon Edwards Indeed. we
may say that there was not more than
one Of his six numerical predecessors of
that name with whom it would be to his
credit to be associated, and even the
English Justinian and the Hammer of
the Scots" may have greater glory from
being known as the predecessor of the
Peacemaker than the latter from being
known as the successor of that inexor-
able and iron-sGuled conqueror. AS for
the other FIVE, save for few passages
in the careers of the third and fourth
they reflected little honor upon the name
There is, of course, n much closer re
lation between George V and the former
sovereigns of that name, for he is direct
ly descended from the first three Of them
and collaterally from the fourth, and the
House Of Saxe-Coburg Is a close offshoot
of that Of Hanover. We need not cite
all OF Thackeray's characterizations of
the four Georges, however, to gain as
surance that there is ample room for the
latest owner Of the name TO be by far
the best The first of them was "an
honest blockhead' of unfra grant domes-
tic life, who had about as little TO do
with England as possible. save TO draw
money from il. The second had no
conspicuous virtues save some military
yalcr. but certain very conspiCuous and

THEIR FOUR STARRED FLAG.

which the suffragists propose TO adorn the

THE INQUEST OF THE MAIyE

THE INQUEST OF THE MATNE
In respect to the raising of the Maine
and the attendant scrutiny of the hull
and reinvestigation of the ma ture and
origin Of the explosion which destroyed
that ship. there are those who urge that
the Spanish government should be per
mitted and invited TO have official and
expert observers present TO participate
in the work. There are also those who
hold that the United States should do
the work itself alone and privately, as it
conducted the former inquest into the
great disaster.
We hope 70 see the former counsel pre-
vail. It might. of course. be held that
Spain and all the world ought to take
the word of this country concerning the
results of the investigation. 1t may with
at least equal force and pertinence be
urged that this country should not hest
tate but rather should desire to let
Spain and all the world see everything
which is revealed in the raising of that
hulk from the bottom of Havana Harbor.
One of three things will certainly hap
pen: The explosion will be found to
have been external. or it will be found to
have been internal, or it will be
found impossible to determine positively
whether it was external or internal. If
the first should be the case, the former
judgment of our Investigators would
stand indisputably confirmed. result
which, we believe. is generally expect
ed. If the second should be the case.
Spain and Cuba, or Spaniards and
Cubans, would be relieved of an odious
suspicion. In the third case, we should
remain in the state of uncertainty which
now prevails in not few minds.
Let us have the Maine raised, as care
fully as possible, in full daylight and
before the eyes of the world, so that
every possible revelation will be indu-
bitably made of the cause and circum-
stances of the mysterious tragedy of q
dozen years ago.

On May 80 a bronze memorial tablet
will be unveiled in the living, room of
the Harvard Union to commemorate
those Harvard men who lost their lives
in the war with Spain. Hardly dozen
names compose the list. and with one
exception the classes represented range
from 1898 to 1900. The exception is
Sherman Hoar, 80, whose indefatigab BILE
efforts in connection with supplies
for the American army were cut short
by a fatal Illness, thus placing him on
the same level Of self sacrifice with
those who died In the field. Those
familiar with Harvard's massive and
stately Memorial Hall, whose tablets
commemorate such of Harvard's sons as
fell in the great war for the Union, will
be glad to see this new memorial to Har-
ward loyalty and patriotism. Compared
with the Civil War, the war with Spain
was indeed an insignificant struggle, but
the youthful enthusiasm and the indf-
cases. Patriotism is patriotism the
world over, and the lustre of self-sacri-
fee cannot be dimmed nor its lesson per-
verted by historical comparisons. The
tablet about to be uncovered is the work
of Bella L. Pratt. of Boston, and its ap-
propriate unveiling on Memorial Day has
the further advantage of presenting it to
view during the coming commencement

A writer in THE Houston Post" Mr.
F. J. Haskin, tells the people of Texas
the fantastic story that Pennsylvania 8
Congress districts are gerrymandered to
the detriment of the Democratic party
The fact is that the last apportionment
was more than generous to the Demo
cratic party, several districts having
been made normally Democratic when
gerrymander could easily have kept them
Republican. In no state in the Union is
the Congress apportionment more liberal
to the minority party than in Pennsyl-
vania. Five Democrats were elected to
Congress in 1908. and from four to seven
are usually elected A Republican

GERMANY CHI AN ES
NAVAL BASE NEAR
ENGLISH ISLE.
Could Now Decend on the
Coast at Moments
Notice.

LONDON, March 31.-Another war
scare was started today when the
newspapers published the story of the
departure of the first German squad
ron for the North sea maneuvers.
When the squadron sailed, it was then
stated that it would remain permanent
ly in the North sea, instead of in the
Baltic, as heretofore. Many look upon
the latest move of Germany as another
step in preparation for war with Eng
land, which is accepted as inevitable.
According to the plans announced by
the German government, the first
squadron will carry out the series
maneuvers in the vicinity of the Island
of Heligoland, and then proceed to Will
helms Haven. which has been named
as the permanent station for the fleet.
English experts say that with Will
helm's Haven as a base, the German
squadron could descend on the Eng
lish coast at a moments notice.
