WASHINGTON

Continued from flIel rage
the situation in Washington politics
this week. Something is going 20
happen soon. but no one seems to
know what It will be. And meanwhile
. the dignifled and intellectual leaders
of the Republican party are giving
an imitation of a chicken with It's
head cut off and running around in
circles.
In general the advantage has been
a little with the insurgents. Also,
there has been more confirmation Of
your correspondents predioation that
the real enemies OF Taft's policies
would be the Cannon and Aldrich
crowd. But we are very sorry to re-
cord this, as ii also means that the
chances OF the much needed laws
which the president advocates are
becoming very poor. Some are going
thru all right, but probably not many.
The first move Of the week was the
announcement by the Insurgents that
they would stand solidly for most OF
the Taft measures. They explained
that they were not agreed among
themselves on ship subsidy or the
Federal Incorporation bill, but on all
other measures they were with the
President to the last drop, This eff
fectually disposed of the yarns Can
non and his friends have been telling
the President about them, and he in
return issued q statement saying he
was greatly pleased. The result has
been to put Taft in a position OF
strict neutrality and to greatly
weaken Cannon.
However, the c. & A. crowd came
back strong. They were delighted at
the conversion of the insurgents, as
they called it. Those who have read
these letters will understand that the
insurgents have never been on the
other side. Also, G. & A. announced
with great joy in their faces, that
this meant that the entire program
of the President would go thru with
flying colors That would mean an
other Republican Congress. All was
happy!
But somehow the joy faded Pres.
Taft began to be a little suspicious
that, since the stand patters had mis-
informed him about the insurgents,
maybe some of their other statements
would bear looking into. He looked,
and it is safe TO say he Is scared
stiff What he saw was about what
a lot of other people have known for
some time, but which has been care
fully concealed from him. 1t Is said
that he has announced that he will
take stump himself during the COM
ing campaign, and he will speak for
regulars and insurgents without dis
tinction. No attempt will be made to
fight the insurgents, and every eff
fort will be made to mako the Con-
gressional Committee keep hands off.
The party will present a united front.
Also. the President is bringing all
the force he can to make c. & A. do
the things they promised, but he was
already doing that.

HAT PIN LAW WANTED.
New York Judge Says That the
Things Are Dangerous.

A New York police magistrate has
placed himself on record as being in
favor of legislation which would
compel women to cover the sharp
ends of their hat pins with some de-
vice to prevent casualties. The mag
istrate, Mr.. Sherman, is a bachelor.
Two very long and very sharp
pointed hat pins were brought him
the other day.
Are these stillettos?" he asked
the feminine defendant. "Why must
you wear such dangerous adorn-
ments?"
THAT is the style, and I must
keep up with the style" the woman
replied. ~-- ..-Hc - r-,a
1T is all wrong, said the Judge.
Men have a right to use their hands
to protect themselves from being
stuck when they get near such pins.
and when they are arrested for as
sault or for being disorderly | in
variably let them off Why don't
you put corks on the ends?"

HE KICKED ON BILLY TAFT
Because President Is a Unitarian
Rev. Morgan Wouldn't Appear on
Same Platform With Him.

WININA LAKE, Ind.-Although
the name of William Howard Taft
appeared upon the printed pro-
gramme for today's session of the
Winona Assembly the smiling face
of Sunny Billy was nowhere to be
seen among those present, nor was
his silvery voice heard by the thou
sands who are attending the meet
ings here. There's a reason. 1t
was to satisfy the tender conscience
of DR.. G. Campbell Morgan of Lon
don, the famous English preacher,
that the name of the president of the
United States was wiped from the
Winona programme.
DR.. Morgan gave as a reason for
his snub to President Taft the state
ment that the American chief ex-
ecutive is a Unitarian, and asserted
that he would never-no, never
speak from the same platform with
an unbeliever in the divinity of
Christ. DR.. Morgan is a Presbyte

THE CONSTITUTION.

This week THE OASIS editor has Canvassed the sentiment among leading business men at both No- gales and Tucson with regard to the proposed constitution, keeping careful count of the expressions made; and if the fifty or more gen. tlemen with whom the editor has conversed are any indication of public sentiment at large, the in- strument will be approved by the people by a handsome majority. Many who look upon the instru- ment with disfavor on account of some particular provisions say they will vote for it, and inaugurate i'm mediately an initiative movement for it's amendment Others will vote for 1t believing vote against it will be a vote against statehood. Many are opposed to the instru- ment as vicious in the extreme. Beth political parties are repre- sented on either side. At this time THE OASIS reserves comment upon the instrument, but will present in due time a careful analysis of the document and its own conclusions.
