The recently reformed" House
Committee on Rules is proving to be
as secure a eatacomb for proposed
legislation antagonized by the special
interests as was the one of which
Speaker Cannon was chairman. Not
single resolution which might ad.
verSely affect unlawful combinations
such as the sugar trust has been re-
ported favorably by the new commit.
tee. Speaker Cannon dominates the
reformed body just as effectively as
he did the old Rules Committee.
Attorney General Wickersham has
given out two more of his famous
opinions. One holds that the Secre-
tary OF War cannot lawfully refuse to

an unlawful trust and monopoly or
otherwise carrying on business in
violation of the Sherman antitrust
law. The other decision holds that
Public Printer Donnelly has no right
to abolish certain branches of the
government printing office simply be-
cause he thinks they are unnecessary
and that he wishes to cut down ex-
penses.
During the first three days of May
the government spent $2,6O2, O93. 81
more than it took in. This would in
dictate that the new tariff law is a fail
ure inasmuch as il is not producing
sufficient revenue to meet the ex-
penses of the government.
The report that Roosevelt has writ

toned in the story emphatically deny
having received such letter. And
Roosevelt denies having written any
thing which could have been so con-
strued.

| Ho, the voice OF spring Is calling
Where the dreary fields are sleeping.
And whisper. softly falling,
Sets the buried life to creeping;
II is calling: ''Waken! waken.'
| TIL the barren twlgs are shaken
And the buds that cling In browsing
swell with leaves that they are housing
And the voice of sprlngtme forces
All the sap until II rushes
Through the hidden ways and courses
That II left in wintry bushes:
And the call speeds on and passes
All the roots of all the grasses
With Its word of warming showers
For the world of sleeping flowers.
And the dream-held bees will chuckle
In their sleep. and scent the bursting
o. the rose and honeysuckle
with the nectar for their thirsting;
Through the orchard goes thrilling
or the blossoms meant for splitting
To the breezes in their playing
With the shine and shadow straying.
Ho. the voice of spring Is speeding
Out across the hills and hollows
And tuned to its joyous leading
Is song that swiftly follows
TIL the birds afar have heard Il
ON the winds that have not blurred II.
And their wings are drumming. thrum-
ming,
For they're coming. coming. coming.
Bud and blossom, bough and berry,
Sky and SOIL and man and maiden
Sense the calling. sweet and merry,
With Its olden promise laden
And we rise with hearts enraptured
or the song that we have captured,
Ot the song that Hits with laughter,
or the days that shall come after.
