PLANS FIRST FAILED

LONDON, July 2S.--The agitation
for compulsory military service in
England. which started for the second
time in the house of lords ten days
ago, has been pushed so theoretically
that there is today no doubt that It
will be an issue in the next national
campaign, which will probably be early
in January.
Very recently Lord Roberts tried to
start a compulsory military service
boom with his speech in the house of
lords. pointing to the danger OF an in
vasion OF England by foreign power
Germany. OF course, implied.
A vigorous campaign, followed in the
conservative newspapers. but England
didn't take to the idea of conscription
and the militarists, fearful of intur-
ing their chances in the last election.
dropped the subject. Since then a
campaign of education has been in
progress until the consumption party
decided II was safe to get out into the
open again.
Fell Far Short.
II seized the occasion when the nd =
n1inistration recently admitted that II
could only get $4,000 men to join the
territoriais. or English militia. out Of
the 100000 desired.
The minute this admission was
made. the Earl of Portsmouth arose
in the house OF lords TO say that thr
present voluntary system OF enlist
ment is never going to provide an lad
equate force for home defence. in
view of the opinion prevalent among
experts that the landing OF large
hostile force is practicable"
Other conservatives backed him
strongly and the lords, being largely
miiitarists. the conscriptionists had
much the better OF the argument.
While the liberals remain in con-
troll Of the administration IL Ia certain
that the military element will fail to
secure the fulfilment OF It's wishes. but
in the event Of conservative victory
in the next election II il equally GER

in securing the passage Of at least one
bill. Pressure for time on the floor will
be insistent from the first stroke OF the
gavel. In these conditions the opportuni-
ty for q blockade OF the essential meas
ares is exceptional and the way is open
for the f1libuster to drive bargains per-
haps inimical to the public interest.
An extension Of the short session by six
weeks would enable Congress to do prop
erly the business 1t is charged with
transacting. There would be no need OF
haste IN the consideration Of the apprc-
priation bills 1t would be possible to
transact general business without the
compromises now necessary to avoid a
blockade Of the money measures. It has
been said in opposition to the change OF
date measure that the country does not
desire an extension of the time of q
Congress which has been put out of COM
mission. This is an incorrect view. The
country wants Congress to do its work
properly. II there is any danger what
ever in the expiring Congress it can be
worked out to the end of inimical legis.
lation as surely in the three months Of
the session as 1t Is now scheduled as in
the longer session. If the country is
actually afraid of a Congress that is ex-
piring by Limitation the new Congress
should be convened Immediately after
election. This is impossible unless the
country is to waive the safeguard of a
congressional election Of President and
Vice President in case Of a failure OF the
electoral college to choose.
Every consideration of business as well
as Of caution suggests the enactment of
the change of date resolution. This is
the time to accomplish it.

Pullman Reduction.
From the Springfield Republican.

From the Springfield republican.
What the Pullman company is now
doing under some pressure in the way OF
reducing berth charges should have been
done years ago. The company's numerous
stock dividends alone show that its prices
have been exorbitant. and II slower rates
had been forced on 1t before. the public
would have a smaller capitalization in the
company to pay returns on now. That
concern has been having the cream of the
railroad business for years, and govern
Ipent regulation might well have paid
earlier attention to its rates. Some Of the
lower berth charges are to be reduced. ac-
cording to the schedule now announced,
but the great change is the making of a
differential- charge between upper and
lower berths, as has been foreshadowed
Where the lower berth charge il 1850
the upper will be $1.25; and where the
lower berth charge is 81 the upper is
81. 6eand, likewise 80 per cent of the
lower berth charge in all other cases
The concession ,is mot quite as great al
had been generally expected. but any
concession from the Pullman company II
to be marveled at and welcomed.

A Simple Program.

Nothin' to do but listen,
Nothin' to do but wait,
And patiently hear with attentive ear
What the statesmen have to state.
Nothin' to do but watch 'em
As they gather In strength once more
To lead the way and to have their say,
AS they've done so oft before.
Nothin' to do but cheer 'em,
Nothin' to do but smile.
As they set the sail to each passin' gale
And steer the ship in style .
Nothin' to do but shake 'em
When Fortune Is not so fair,
For gratitude never was the mood
OF republics anywhere. :.

Change the Date!

Though the session Of Congress which
opens today is limited to three months,
with a LIBERAL intermission Of holidays
for Christmas. there will be time enough
TO consider such an important measure
as the resolution providing for a change
Of the inauguration date. The resolution
10 now before the House on the commit
tee calendar. It may be taken up at any
time by unanimous consent and 1t is first
in order of the judiciary committee items
when that committee Is reached on call
There is q prepondorant sentiment In
favor of 1t. as shown by the fact that
last spring a motion to suspend the rules
and pass 1t was lost by only a fraction
Of . vote. Under other conditions doubt
less the necessary two-thirds would be
cast In favor Of the resolution permit
ting the constitutional amendment to 20 to
the states for ratification. A similar reso-
luton has already been passed by the
Senate in other congresses, and there is
no question that concurrence by the upper
house would speedily follow action by
the representatives.. In order to secure
ratification by q sufficient number of
states In season to affect the next inau.
guration 1t Is necessary for Congress to
submit the resolution at this session.
Postponement to next year means that
nothing can be done In time for the cere-
monies Of 1913.
An argument for the change In the
inaugural date is afforded by the present
situation in Congress. OF equal impor-
lance with the providing Of a more suit

tailed by the proposed amendment. Con-

Philanthropy.
From the indianapolis Star.

From the indianapolis Star.
Much undertaking going to show that
men are continually trying to overreach
each other and are ready to sacrifice
public interests for selfish ends: innu-
merable facts indicating that graft and
other dishonest practices prevail every
where. many proofs that the heart OF
man is deceitful and desperately wicked
are all features of the time that might
easily create depression and cause the
sensitive person to believe that the coun-
try Is going rapidly to the bow-wows and
to lead him to ask, Whats the use OF
living?'
But these things are mere phases OF
twentieth century existence that come
into unpleasant prominence because So
cial conditions are in q state Of evolution
and because as the pot boils the scum
comes to the top as a preliminary to
being SKINNED OFF. Underneath this ref
use is to be found basis that is sweet
and sound. The heart of humanity under
all the froth of frivolity and the cloud
of evil deeds is sincere and true, and
never was its goodness SO clearly shown
as in the ways of modern philanthropy.

Mary Baker Glover Eddy.

The highest tribute that has ever been
paid to Mrs. Mary Baker q. Eddy, whose
death In Brookline, Mass, in her nine
tieth year, has just been formally an
nounced, lies in the fact that despite
the intense opposition to the institution
of which she was the founder the thought
Of mental or spiritual healing has taken
a definite place in modern practice of the
treatment of disease. There are now
numerous cults, organizations and the
cries of healing which differ from that
proclaimed by Mrs. Eddy only in de-
gree and in terms. The world has ac-
copied in large measure the doctrine that
to a certain extent disease is encouraged
IL not caused by the mental state Of the
individual. Mrs. Eddy made religion.
She created nothing in the way Of doc
trine, but gathered from universal sources
a mass Of truth and suggestion and as
sertion that became a formula OF, ire
mendous power. Today the church
which she brought into being is living
memorial to her, to her. sagacity, her
courage, her administrative ability. Ii
not her inspiration.
A movement affecting SO large q num-
Der of people OF all classes Of society
must necessarily involve spirited. even
bitter, controversy. The history Of the
church founded by Mrs. Eddy Is one Of
almost continuous struggle and conflict
with the civil law on the one side and
with already established religious insti-
buttons on the other. But the fact can
not be ignored that the institution re-
mains, solidly founded and prosperous,
and that those who support 1t are happy.
Mrs. Eddy's personality was unques-
tionabiy the dominating influence In the
early. constructive period. Whether she

not Is in the final analysis immaterial
She remains the cohesive force that Gre

Congress and Landslides.

The two great parties confront each
other i'm Congress today after result al
the polls which is called a landslide. The
democratic party was first, and the re-
publican party nowhere. What of the
future? Is the victor on the eve Of q
long lease of power? Will the trust OBJ.
tanned be well administered, and public
confidence retained for years? Or will
the vanquished come back in q short
time and resume control?
Twenty years ago the democratic party
profited by a landslide, brought abou,
partly by tariff revision, and partly by a
popular cry against alleged czarism in
the Speakers chair. The Mckinley Law
and what was characterized as Reedism
did the work for the republicans. A
more promising situation was never pre-
sented to a party than the one that ex-
listed for the democracy on the first day
of the short session Of the Fifty-f1rst
Congress; and temporarily it was i'm
proved. The presidency and the Senate
were won two years later, and the party
entered upon full control.
But there an end Of good fortune. The
country did not like the new tariff law
enacted to replace the Mckinley law, and
in the matter of car in the Speaker s
chair it could see no difference in the
House rulings between Reedism and
crispism. The German Wilson law was
carrying a liberal degree Of protection.
against the express promises Of the de-
mocracy. and Speaker Crisp was follow
ing so closely in his predecessors tracks
that he seemed a pupil of the man from
Maine
In November. 1894, therefore-only four
years after the democratic landslide
came a republican landslide. The country
at the polls confessed to complete dis
appointment in the democracy. It acted

house divided against itself. and fell.

SFr0m the Philadelphia Inquirer.
One Of the many objections to the bic

the points of these pins protrude in q
manner which renders them menace te
