It is quite the vogue among the Republican managers in Congress to have, one house concede demands from some element of the people, which concession will be rejected by the. other house, or so amended as to necessifate reference to a confer ence committee, a longtime grave yardi for measures not favored by the interests" A fresh illustration of this practice will quite probably ap- pear in connection with the refusal of the House to agree to the Senate amendment to the Sundry civil bill striking out 3the exemption of labor organizations from prosecution under the antitrust and interstate com merce laws. The Senate conferees will doubtless insist upon acceptance of the amendment; the House con- ferees who must go before the people in November next, will as probably insist upon retention of the proposed exemption, and between the two sides, the provision will doubtless drop It is a very neat game when dextrously worked.

NEW PLEA BY COMMUTERS
Raise Technical Objections to Increase by New Haven and
 Central Railroads

New York, June 23-After a meet ing of Directors of the Westchester County Chamber of Commerce, held yesterday afternoon in the Transpor- tation Club, it was announced that complaints had been filed with the Public Service Commission against the New York Central Railroad and the New Haven Road, raising legal points over the notice of increase in commutation rates.
 The Chamber of Commerce has been informed that the Public Ser vice Commission has examined the complaint and given the railroads five days to prepare an answer
 Daniel P. Hays, Chairman of the Railroad Investigations Committee in- formed the Directors that Public Ser vice Commissioner Frank A. Stevens had agreed to meet the Westchester commuters informally today and hear their opinions. The meeting will take place at the Bar Association and it is planned that two representatives from each village, town, and city in Westchester County will attend, as we'll as delegations from all the civic associations.
 Secretary Herbert E. Angell said yesterday that a months delay might be obtained on the new complaint. and that this would give the West chester commuters time to organize and decide whether they should con- tinue the fight.

We hesitate to credit two current reports as to President Taft. One is that he will only consent to appoint the son of Justice Harlan of the U. S. Supreme court to the bench of the new Commerce court, if Justice Har- Ian will resign and thus afford him an opportunity of filling another va cancy on the Supreme bench.
 The other is that he is holding up the rivers and harbors, and public buildings bills, in which Congressmen are particularly interested, as a club to force adoption of his pet measures. In other words. that he threatens to veto these bills if Congress refuses or neglects to meet his wishes.
 The first of these reports involves a bargain, in which appointments are the considera tions of the deal; the second is coercion pure and simple by one branch of the government up- on another.
 Both would be violations of long established principles, and we dislike to believe that President Taft would be guilty of them. It has not been supposed that he was either a bar gainer in Federal patronage or a wielder of the Rooseveltian 'big stick"

HOUSEHOLD NOTES

If your last season hat trimmings in the shape of flowers are badly fad ed, do not consider their condition hopeless; get a few water colors and a brush and proceed to touch them up to your liking.
 When it is necessary to measure any liquid by the drop, one may dispense with the pipette. Cut a small notch at the edge of the cork just large enough for a drop to come through at a time; push the cork in tight and pour.
 When the kitchen wall is darker than it should be, and you strongly suspect that that part of the general grayness is soot, there is ready remedy in cold water. Do not use warm water. as it is likely to turn the paper yellow.
 When there are several children con- stantly in need of new shoes the one who has to provide them will do well to try this: Coat the soles of the shoes with three or four coats of copal var nish and they will never need resol- ing.
 Jars in which lard has been kept for some time can be purified and cleansed of all odor by filling with skim milk and letting stand over night. Place on the stove and heat slowly until it reaches the boiling l..
 For bruised furniture, wet the part with warm water, double a piece of brown paper five or six times, soak ii in warm water, lay it on the place, ap- ply on that a warm flatiron til the moisture is evaporated. If the bruise is not gone repeat.
 To remove precipitation stains from silk waists, sponge the place over your hand with a clean white rag wet in clear water, then cover completely with powdered prepared chalk. Let it dry thoroughly and brush off care fully with a soft brush.
 In freezing ice cream put the ice and salt in the freezer and press torn newspapers close around the top, cov- ering all with the ice sack. Turn the crank a few minutes and let it stand ten or fifteen minutes. It will then freeze with about five minutes turn ing.
 The cleaning of feather pillows is not A task to be dreaded. Place 8 couple of pieces of board across foul tin coffee cans and set in the bottom of the boiler. Put three inches ot water in the boiler, place the pillows on the board, cover the boiler and lei the pillows steam for an hour, and dry in the sun.
 Take an old dustpan that has nc handle and dail to the middle of the back a stick one yard long and three or four inches wide, allowing the low CT end of the stick to project about three inches below the bottom of tht pan. If properly done, you will have a dustpan that can easily be carried and will save much stopping over. 1 wANT-ADs. CENT A WORD

be such as to secure the public con- fdenoe.
 The resolution providing for an in- vestigating committee carried the usual little joker" in the form of a provision that the committee should proceed only upon a specific charge. verified upon knowledge" Of this, Gov Hughes says:
 It contemplates with respect to such matters a virtual trial upon specific charges verified upon knowl- edge by those who present them. This provision is of such a character, and the probability of specific charges verified upon knowledge being pre- sentcd in so slight that it would seem likely that the actual investi- gation by the committee of corrupt practices would be limited to what was shown in the Senate inquiry or developed before the superintendent of insurance. I believe that this is a mistake.
 The Governor might have used a stronger word than mistake" The provision was evidently intended to protect the guilty from investigation.
