Ia addition TO its Inherent viciouSneSs
in practically committing Congress 10
IAN approval Of the judicial recall, the
joint resolution affecting Arizona and
New Mexico now before the President
deserves 10 be vetoed because of its
thorough disingenuousneSs. 1t does not
DO what it makes pretence Of doing.
Sit provides in the first paragraph that
"tlc territories of New Mexico and
Arizona are hereby admitted into the
Union upon an equal footing with the
original states i'm accordance with the
terms of the enabling act approved
June 20. 1910. upon the terms and con
"ditions hereinafter set FORTH Those
qualifying conditions. 50 far as they are
plainly stated comprise the submission
10 the people Of New Mexico Of two
PROPOSED changes in New MeXicO's con
stjution and TO the people of Arizona Of
one proposed change in Arizona's con
stitution. though Congress admits its
entire indifference whether these
changes are accepted at the polls or
not.
But the joint resolution annulS the
enabling act Of June 20, 1910, in other
important respects not frankly specified.
That act provided that the constitutions
of both Arizona and New Mexico should
Lc approved 10y The President. who. when
new states are admitted, has generally
lcen empowered 10 determine whether
their constitutions are acceptable under
the terms of the enabling acts and the
federal Constitution. But Congress
went further in 1910 having had An I'M
fortunate experience with Oklahoma,
and provided that the new constitutions
should 20 into effect only if approved
also by Congress, or not diSapproycd be
fore the end Of the regular session he
ginning i'm December. 1911. The Presi-
dent has already carried out the pro-
visions Of the enabling act by approving
New MeXicos constitution. Congress
hns not attempted 10 comply with IT'S
forms by approving or disaPproVme
either or both OF tho constitutions after
tho method authorized. I'm the Flood
resolution it has tried 10 take away
from the President his power OF ap-

THE OPEN CONFERENCE.

To Senator La Toilette is due the In
novation I'm legislative methods OF the
open conference committee. The con-
ferrees OH the wool and woorlens bill
amazed Washington on Friday by IN
viting the public into the conference
room
il was shock to the precedents OF
over q century, but who will say that
the experiment was not worth trying:
The conference is legislative body. 1t
simply puts the finishing touches on n
measure which both houses have passed
but about certain details of which they
are still in disagreement. There is no
logical basis for the practice of off
Terminating between legislation in con
ference and legislation in the houses
themselves In fact. if it is advisable
10 conduct the earlier proceedings in
The House and Senate in public session
there IS even u more urgent reason for
giving publicity 70 the more critical
stages in which an act assumes final
form. \ conference committees powers
are sweeping. Though theoretically re-
quircd TO consider only the differences
which have arisen between the two
branches. il may draft a complete sub
Sttuto measure and submit it as n solu-
ticn Of disagreements which it is har'
monizinC. Responsibility for the al
tcrations in AZ act which conference
makes is hard 10 fix. and under the
present system neither house can be
sure that its representatives have done
cir utmost to support its contentious.
The conference report when it comes
out is pig in a poke and must be
accepted or rejected in its entirety. IT
is oil the more desirable. therefore, 10
lift the veil Of secrecy and let the world
know who fsthered the compromises
agreed on and how they were reached.
The open conference seems TO he a
good thing, and we hope that it has come
~ stay.

that the presence Of so many haDituai

that this mixing up Of the two classes
largely offsets the scientific work or

The fault appears to lie with the
courts. which exercise their discretion
in sentencing offenders. Perhaps we

SENATOR FRYE AND NEW YORK.


SENATOR FRYE AND NEW YORK.
A correspondent of The Tribune hap
ply calls attention to the highly i'm
portant work which the late Senator
Frye did in behalf Of the Port Of New
York as something which should be
appreciatively remembered amid the
other tributes which are paid TO his
career II would be difficult. indeed, to
overestimate the practical value Of that
work, which was performed largely,
though not entirely. as 4 member and as
chairman of the Senate Committee on
Commerce Himself the representative
OF q great maritime commonwealth. Mr..
Frye was keenly alive 10 the importance
o. commercial facilities. Being more
over. a statesman of more than local
range of vision, he recognized the pri-
macy of New York among our Atlantic
ports and the urgent desirability OF
treating that primacy as result of
natural and logical conditions which
should be maintained and confirmed by
all legitimate artificial aids. For that
reason. instead of sefishly trying TO
get all appropriations possible for the
harbors of his own state, he took pains
and went out of his way TO secure all
possible federal aid for New York rs
our supremely national seaport.
In that respect Mr.. Frye often filed
the place and did the things which prop
erly should have pertained to Senators
from New York. IT was in those days
often remarked. reproachfully, that New
Yorli's representatives in the Senate,
ard also in the House. did little for
this port and that when anything Of
real Importance was achieved il was TO
b. credited to a New England Senator
or TO Western Representative. Beyond
that even. it was complained. with no
little cause, that New York had for
years been actually impairing her own
harbOr by making it dumping-place
for rubbish Men now living can remem-
Der almost endless towS Of scOwS. laden
with the waste of the city, going down
the bay and being emptied sometimes
before they passed the NarrOws and
often before they were abreast of Sandy
Hook. Such practices were pretty well
stepped before Mr.. Frye began his work
in New YoTk's behalf. but the evil con-
sequences remained in channels which
had been made shallow by them and
which had to be deepened by the re-
moval Of stuff which New York itself
