The stubborn fight in the House Of
Representatives between fellow mem.
|rbers Of the ruling political party is
more significant than appears on the
surface.

litical dial claim that the Republican

erything points to revival Of true
Democratic principles on the great is
sues that confront tine American people
to-day.
The smashing Of "standpat" machine
ry in the House Of Representatives
was only an incident It came, in the
fullness Of time. because behind it was
the overpowering discomfort Of mil
lions Of American voters. sfsy s
The average Congressman knows
every shade of fiuctuating opinion on

The destruction Of the House organ

Of both parties was in response to an
avalanche Of public opinion.
The conviction in the minds Of the
American people that special privilege

suit themselves developed into a de-

The Republican split is not an ordi-
nary party difference, but a new align

cAr CENSUS IN YoKAHAMA.

Feline Infant Mortality Lessened
by Bonus ON kittens.
Yokohama, which prides itself upon
being the most fourishing port in
Japan, received Al shock last year. It
believed that Its cat population was
decreasing alarmingly.
With the painstaking care that char,
acterizes Japanese ofi1cialdom the ON
GERS Of the kehcho. or city hall, set
their agents to taking census of the
cats Of Yokohama. There were about
1000 able-bodied adult cats In all the
confines Of the city. these enumerators
discovered; they even established the
fact that less than one-third Of the cat
population was males.
Something must be done at once to
encourage the growth of the feline
members of Yokohama society, the
kencho officers decided. They were
quite sure by observation OF the family
habits Of certain cats selected from the
proletariat that race suicide was not q
factor in this decrease OF the popula-
ton. On the contrary, they found 1t
to be fact that in too many instances
human intervention during the infan-
cy Of the cats brought about the les
SEEMING Of the population by violence.
In all Japanese cities bubonic plague
is an ever present menace. There have
Ibeen times when the plague has swept
through whole districts and only by
the most rigorous efforts Of the sani-
tary officials could it be stamped out.
Rats are the chief disseminators Of
the plague. On occasions such vigor-
GUS campaigns have been waged
against the rats that the governments
of various cities have offered quar-
ter Of a cent bounty for every rat car
icass. Men went into the trade Of rat
catching with handsome profits In
sight. y
But Yokohama decided that the most
potent means Of rat determination lay
in the city's cats. Hence the alarm
felt at the discovery Of the decrease In,
the number of rat catchers. So after
the completion Of the cat census year
ago, the kencho officials decided to Of
fer a bonus of SO sen (25 cents) for.
every kitten raised to maturity.
Complication followed fast in the
path of this spur to cat culture, the
New York Sun asserts. Citizens flock
ed to the kencho with cats not their
own and cat chasing became one Of
the most serious pursuits of the street
boys. The kencho officials finally had
to rule that preliminary claim for
the SO sen reward must be made at
the nearest, police station upon the
birth Of every kitten and that the boz
nus would not be paid until such time
as it could be shown that the same
kitten had advanced to, sufficient ma
turity to be considered rat catcher.
Consequently for year past one OF
the chief duties of policemen has been
the inspection and registration Of the
adolescence of cats.
Yokohama is breathing easier now.
The last cat census showed that there
were was in round numbers $4,000 cats
in the city. Yen 1875 ($9s7.5O) has
been paid out in bounties.

rising tide of independence within Re-

shibboleths useless. A new issue has
arisen that dwarfs even the past gTo-

The Navy ana sb,n snh.,ax.

y
Secretary Meyers plan for a grand
naval parade around the world in 1912
does not appeal to peace-loving, seusi-
BILE Americans. Nor should Congress
entertain his requests for vast appro,j
priations to that end. 81
The man who arms himself to the
teeth ana calls on his neighbor with
his weapons displayed invites trouble,
and is pretty sure to be accommodated.
The nation that persists in parading
its navy in foreign waters on a war
footing must take the blame II its chal-
slenge is accepted. Az
The friendly visit Of an American
warship or two to a foreign port is an
act of peace; score of warships, out
fitted for naval campaign, assume
very much the appearance OF hostile
demonstration.
But danger Of disturbing the inter.
national peace is not the only argu-
ment against the round-the.world pa
rade ofsAmerican ships. II Congress
can be persuaded into providing battle
ships for this imposing pageant, the
next cry will be for Golfers, and the
country will be told that suficient
number of Golfers to accompany the
feet can only be insured by ship
subsidy
The proposed voyage can add no lauy
srels to the administration, and would
serve no purpose, except possibly to
bolster the failing ship subsidy
scheme. The possible relation Of the
Meyer plan 10 the subsidy propaganda
is alone enough to stamp it as unde-
s:rable. u 3 <. "

counting for the causes which turned
his own party against Cannon, Mr..

"Mr. Cannon is to-day deeply hated
In his district. BY his knee-bending
subserviency to the money god and
his prompt willingness to sway the
House to its dull worship, he has
reared up against himself wall Of
opposition. Mr. Cannon is the House
despot, with powers in excess of those
which 'appertain to nominal despots, as
czars or sultans. Tariffs. appropria,
lions, all House things, are under his
thumb And while a certain list Of
favored members seem free to talk
and vote and act, should you look
closely you will see that they are but
Mr.. Cannon's puppets. talking with his
tongue, voting by his decision, acting
through his strength.
Zach morning Mr.. Cannon brings
into the House list Of what mem
bers he will recognize No one goes
upon that sacred roll until he has ex-
planned to Mr.. Cannon in private what
he will talk about and what he will
talk. The gavel, plus the rules. is a
gag, and Mr.. Cannon can hold what
member he will, for what period he
pleases, as wordless as the Sphinx"
