W ARM FIGHT IS
AHEAD OF HOUSE
POWER OF SPEAKER MUST BE
cURTAlLED MORE, SAYS
RESENTATIVES.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-Another
contest over taking from the speaker
the power to name standing commit
tees is expected to develop soon after
the House OF Representatives assem-
bles next month. This time it is not
unlikely thac the movement will re-
ceive the support of Speaker Cannon
and his allies, inasmuch as the rext
assignments will be made by the Dem
ocrats.
Interviews with Representatives
Murdoch, of Kansas, and Norris, OF
Nebraska, indicate that they intend
to lose no time in resuming the fight
waged with insurgents last session,
which reformed the rules and deposed
Speaker Cannon from membership on
the rules committee. It is not known
what the attitude of the Democrats
will be in the coming session when an
effort is made tr still further shear
the speakership CT it's great authority,
but the chances are that they will
seek to force the battle over to the
succeeding session when they will be
undisputed control.

A Presence.

The best mahogany is scratched;
There's mud upon the polished floor;
The storm and sun beat in. Unmatched
And swinging wide stands every door.
Each hour is luncheon time. 1t seems,
And hunger pauses not for grace.
Farewell to idleness and dreams!
There is a boy. about the place.
The pages Of a favorite book
Are marked with thumb prints here and
there.
The house dog wears a puzzled look,
Yet welcomes mischief in the air.
Paint brush and nails and hammer play
Odd pranks which years cannot efface.
Adieu, oh lazy. lettering day!
There il a boy about the place.
But when Oerhead the starry train
In. wondrous pageantry is shown.
Our heartbests echo back again
The sweet affection Of his own.
The paths which far beyond us range
Are his to tread with youthful pace.
And night seems solemn, still and strange.
There is boy about the place.

it affords a reasonable excuse for failure
to solve crimes committed on the East
Side. This may be a libel, but the fact
remains that for some reason Chinatown

casional outbreaks are chiefly effective
in reducing the Chinese population. must
inevitably have a demoralizing influence

is ii than in the case of the Italian black
mail crimes. A Chinese witness is a mar
vel of forgetfulness and ignorance. The
oath has absolutely no significance for
him. He is blandly Indifferent to all
questions, knowing that every word he
utters is recorded against him by his
enemies, who may be present only by
proxy, but who never permit him to testi-
fy without keeping him under observa-
ton by proxy. In these circumstances 1t
would seem that the only course possible,
unless New York desires to maintain this
murder hole as a thrilling feature of its
composite life, would be to set limit be-
yond which no Chinaman will be permit
ted to live within this area. What Is
needed is a complete clearance of the
oriental dives and the adoption of pre-
cautions to prevent their temperance in

Washington's Growth.
From the New York Tribune.

Washington is the first . city whose
population in 1910 has been announced
by the census bureau. The growth in
the last decade has been 52,351-at the
rate of 1873 per cent. The percentage OF
increase from 1890 to 1900 was 81: so
that there has been q slight retardation
in the capitals development. Yet most
Washingtonians will doubtless be salts
fed with the moderate increase recorded.
since they are sensibly content to see
the city grow slowly through accretions
due to an appreciation of Its attractive
ness as a place Of residence rather than
to it's exploitation as center of indus
try and commerce.

Is obliged to do for Itself, and practically
no wholesale trade. Washington's gain
seems substantial enough. 1t must de-
pend for its expansion on the growth OF
the activities of the federal establish
ment That is slow but sure Every ad-
dition to the civil service or to the naval
and military services Is an additional
guarantee of the city's future. Thousands
who have served the government in some
capacity remain In Washington when that
service Is over. 1t is an ideal place In
which to live in retirement or in which
to educate 4, family. But its gains OF
population on these scores are offset by
losses due to the drift Of the more active
adults to centers where there are greater
opportunities in industry and business

Gov. Hughes.

If it is true that Mr.. Roosevelt regards
Gov. Hughes as the master of the New
York situation and his denomination the
solution of the republican difficulty he
agrees with many men of recognized polit-
ical acumen. Only he is late in declaring
himself. is he too late?
Before offering Gov. Hughes seat on
the supreme bench, President Taft urged
him to stand for governor again. Hughes
sentiment was strong all over the state,
and as much so in independent circles as
in regular republican circles. Upstate
and downstate. the governor was recog-
nized as a great force for good govern
ment, and very many voters desired him
to remain in harness. But, for reasons
which he frankly gave, the governor an
nounced his purpose to retire from poll
tics. and the President. considering a de-
mand In another field of usefulness, called
him to that.
Regret was widespread and uncon-
cealed. That the bench had gained was
everywhere acknowledged. But, in the
circumstances. the feeling was that poll
tics had the stronger claim, and that Gov.
Hughes should have subordinated his per-
sonal wishes and plans to the general
view Of the general welfare.
1t is in the power of Gov. Hughes to
decline the place on the bench to which
he has been appointed and confirmed,
and, so to say, re-enter politics. Great
numbers of men in New York and else
where would welcome such q step. He
would at once resume the New York
leadership he held prior to his acceptance
of the judicial office. He would carry
the republican convention by storm. and,
later. the state at the polls. The demo-
Gratis would be unable to match him.
The change from Fingy Corners to John
A. Dix has not been attended with any
enthusiasm in democratic circles or in
Independent circles, and the democratic
hope rests on a feeble republican nomina-
ton.
Whether this matter is to be submit
ted to Gov. Hughes by Mr.. Roosevelt and
Mr.. Roosevelts request reinforced by
President Taft cannot be stated posi-
lively Mr. Taft would have no difficulty
about finding a 1T and strong man for
New York have nobody comparable with
Gov. Hughes as a militant figure at a
time Of militant need.
Both the man and the situation are
unusual. In a way, Gov. Hughes is as
unclassable as Mr.. Roosevelt. We have
had nobody just like him in our politics.
And in politics he has known only sue
cess. Opposed at all points by trained
politicians playing the game according to
accepted rules, he, a novice. disclaimins
any knowledge of. the game, has routed
the veterans. But he may not care for
another engagement. The Developments
Of the week are likely to be important.
