Mr.. NEWlANDS' CALL TO BUSINESS

Senator Newlands submits an
ambitious program. He would
have this Congress earn its salt
at both the extra session and the
first regular session. He considers
that there is much to be done, and
that the country epxects. and has
right to expect, prompt action
on questions of great moment to
it. He will address the Senate on
the subject Monday, and his
observation is certain OF attention.
Note the great difference be-
tween what Mr.. Ne~lands thinks
should be done at the extra session
what popular prediction promises.
The Nevada senator enumerates
nine matters which Congress
should dispose of before putting
up the shutters. POPULAR predic-
ton mentions but one-Canadian
reciprocity. Nine men out of ten
will tell you that, after a little
stage play intended for the
galleries, the two houses will
point to the mercury which will
be high in the tube, and, with
perspiration streaming down their
faces ask, whats the use"? and
then knock off until December.
If this Is done the whole load
will be transferred to the regular
session, which will have load
enough without the addition Of q
single one of the items which Mr..
Newlands thinks should be dis
posed of now. For TIE regular
session the senator sugg ests seven
propositions worthy Of attention at
that time. and all of them of a
character provocative of prolonged
debate.
If the weather should force
adjournment this year, what about
next year? The warm season Of
l912.may open as early and strenu-
ously az the warm season Of this
year has.
And, besides. added to warm
weather will be the warmest
sort Of politics. Congress will not
want to sit late on any account.
The national conventions will be
taking up attention, and both
parties occupied with maneuver-
ings about presidential tickets
and platforms.

KILLING 4 MUTINY

notrious case in the naval history
Of this country was the conspiracy
to mutiny on the brig of war
Somers, which was discovered be-
fore it came to a head and resulted
in execution at sea of Philip
Spencer midshipman. one petty
officer and one seaman.
Another famous case was the
one in which 1mmodore Porter
acted with such vigor and prompti-
tude that he completely crushed
the rebellious spirit that had mani
tested itself and saved his ship.
When Commodore Porter was in
command of the Essex in the early
history Of our navy there was an
attempted mutiny on board. Here
is an account of how it was
suppressed which is vouched for as
authentic: "While the Essex was
lying at tlhe Marquesas islands.
recruiting and refreshing her crew
from one of the long and arduous
cruises in the Pacific. Commodore
Porter was informed through a
servant of one of the officers that a
mutiny had been planned and was
on the eve of contamination; that
is was the intention of the
mutineers to rise upon the offers.
take possession of the ship and
after having remained as long as
they found it agreeable at the island
to hoist the black flag and cruise
on their own account
Having satisfied himself of the
truth Of the information. Commo-
dore Porter assembled to the
quarterback and ordered all the
crew to be summoned aft. Wait
ing until the last man had come
from below, he informed them
that he understood that mutiny
was on foot and that he had
summoned them for the purpose
of inquiring into its truth. Those
men who are in favor of standing
by the ship ard her officers" said
the commodore, will 60 over to
the starboard side; those who are
against them will remain where
they are The crew to a man

The ship was still as the grave.

of his countenance in front of his
comrades.

q moment then seized cutlass
from the nearest rack asked in a
suppressed voice but in tones so
deep that they rang like a knell
upon the ears of the guilty among
the crew: william! You are the
ringleader of this mutiny! Jump
overboard!" The man dropped on
his knees implor!ng for mercy
saying that he could not swim.
Then drown you scoundrelI said
the commodore springing toward
him TO cut him down. over
board Instantly And the man
jumped over the side of the ship.
He then turned to the trembling
crew and addressed them with
much feeling the tears standing
upon his bronzed cheek as he
spoke. He asked them what he
had done that his ship should be
disgraced by mutiny. He asked
whether he had ever dishonored
the flag, whether ne had ever
treated them with other than kind
ness whether they had ever been
wanting for anything to their
comfort that discipline and the
rules Of the service would allow
