Earle Hodges, our Secretary of State, in a recent speech here re- ferred to the Sun editor personally and wants Us turned out of office to prevent us putting on too much adipose tissue. Earle worked for us when the Democrats were in power for fifty cents Q day and found his own board and lodging. Earle knows that Democratic ad- ministration is the best anti-fat ever discovered. We look back with horror on the gloomy days when Earle used to come down to the office with two big fintrocks in his seersucker pockets. At first we feared that he intended to as- saSsinate us and take our monday lunch. But we afterward discov- cred that he was using the dornicks for ballast to keep the wind from blowing him across the state line into a Republican county.-Salem Sun.

ITALY INDICATED.

We arc very glad to learn that the reports OF
barbarity and extreme cruelty. which reflected
upon Italy's conduct of the war with Turkey
are now believed to have been false. at least
greatly exaggerated Dispatches state that the
inhuman methods OF warfare are really charge
able to the Turks and Arabs and that recent
advices have cleared the skirts of the Italians
and caused a complete reversal Of opinion
among the European press.
Lord Roberts, perhaps the greatest living
authority In the matter of the conduct OF civil
lied warefare--save the mark-utterly repudi-
ates the idea that Italy has violated the laws
of such warfare or transgressed. beyond the
exegencies of the conflict, the rights OF her an
tagonist or the claims of humanity. Says he:
mo soldier will put any credence In the re-
ports that women and children have been de-
Iiberately killed by the Italians. but doubtless,
in the act of clearing the hostile villages be-
hind the italian lines many innocent persons
suffered with the guilty. Such things. unfor-
tunately. are inevitable in war"
We repeat that we are glad that Christian
nation must not rest under the stigma Of in
human practices that would have brought
shame to the savage tribes of the earth That
nations claiming allegiance to the Cross should
still settle their differences at the point OF the
sword is bad enough. heaven knows That they
should forget the spirit and principles they
profess so far to murder and mutiiate IN
nocent non -combatants would be intolerable

CONGRESS TODAY.

The regular session Of the Sixty-second Con-
is expected in the weeks that to folrow.
The Democrats have a good working majority
overcome in the Senate. This may easily be
accomplished should there be a working ar
whose policies in the main are not far removed
from those OF the House Democrats.
Much important legislation will come before
this Congress The Tariff, the Trusts and the
Currency are perhaps the most important but
the Arbitration treaties. the parcels post and
the ship subsidy will provoke much discussion
and arouse much interest through the nation.
Added interest and Importance attach to this
session Of Congress in view of the fact that 1t
precedes a presidential election and the party
do4ngs in Congress will have great influence
upon the result OF the coming election Party
leaders are we'll aware OF this fact and the
posing parties.
Should the Democrats act as harmoniously
and as wisely they did in the special SEES
sion their chances OF success will be greatly
augmented They came ont OF that period hav-
ing created for themselves renewed public
confidence and approval and II Mr.. Taft will
but assist them again with few unwse vetoes
he will make almost certain the election OF
the opposition party candidates.
