NORRIS OFFERS
 TWO AMENDMENTS

WASHINGTON, D. C.. Jan. 5.- Two important amendments to the house rules, one intended to out flank the regulars in their fight against the insurgent rule as to discharging committees from consid- eration of bills, the other to throw committee meetings to the public, were introduced by Representative Norris, of Nebraska, who led tie insurgent republicans in great rules fight last March. A resolution on the recent ruling of Speaker Can non that on motion to discharge a committee from further considera ton of bill. the bill must be read in it's entirety, provides that in consideration of such a motion the house measure shall be read by title only.
 Norris believes that this will meet the attempt of regular republicans to deprive the insurgent rule of its effectiveness, for under the ruling the reading of the bill might oc- cupy ali of the remaining available time of a session of congress.
 The public committee meeting resolution is based on the conten- ticn that secrecy in committee trans actions Is contrary to public policy, provides that, unless otherwise ord cred, house business of all stand. ing, select and special committee be made public, including the record of all votes taken
 Two bills providing for the re- apportionment of the country's rep resentation in congress will be pre- sented in the house tomorrow by Chairman Crumpaeker, of the house committee on census. One will be based on the continuance of the present membership of 39I. This will fix the basis of representation at one congressman for every 23s, 000 people in the United States The other bill will fix the represen. tatfon at one congress man for each 21I.s77 inhabitants. making a total membership of 432.
 Crumpacker will offer two bills ir order that both may formally be considered by the committee. Alt CT their introduction in the. house they will be referred back to Crum packers committee. Representation for the new states of Arizona, New Mexico are not included in the fig ures showing house membership.

NO MORE NEWS
 FROM ITALIANS

No additional news was received in the city Thursday regarding the two italians for whom the officers are searching and who were re- ported to be in the hills eight miles east of Bisbee late Tuesday after noon So far the story brought in by Bada. the Mexican. is uncon- firmed
 It is pointed out by those who are familiar with the lay of the land around Bisbee and in the vic inity of Forest Spring that it would be comparativel yeasy for the Ital- ians to elude a small posse of men as they could hide in one of the many tunnels that have been dug into the mountain sides by pros pectors.
 That officers are on the alert for anything that might lead them to the hiding place of the fuGuvea is indicated by the careful watch that Is being kept on persons who are known to have been intimately associated with the two Italians be fore the killing took place. It is said that the post office is being watched to see If they are being communicated with through postal channels. There Is a reward oi Si.000 for he capture of the fugi tires.

THE GOVERNOR SHOULD NOT
PARDON.

We cannot sympathiZe with the SEN
timenal petitions to Governor BroWa
to pardon SrribI ng.
Il Stribling is pardoned, without
having served a single day of the life
sentence imposed upon him, it Is
equivalent to saying that a man can
.assass.nate a man in Georgia, run
away. conceal himself under an as
sumed name, and then, if he does not
kill any one else, when found wal oe
pardoned on the ground that he has
behaved himself since the murder.
Such a course is an open invitation
10 murder.
Georgia is rapidly obtaining an I'M
enviable reputation as the state of
continual homicides. Murder after
murder is committed within its bord-
ers, but the number of executions, ex-
. cept OF negroes, is lamentably small
1t is to be hoped that Gov Brown
will have the nerve to Withstand the
petitions that are sent to him in this
and other instances.
Stribling was tried at the time Of
the commission of the crime He was
tried by his home people. The evil
dence was carefully presented, 1t was
duly weighed, and the jury found him
guilty of murder He was sentenced
to life imprisonment Is it not to be
presumed that the jury CT twelve cit
-zens, of his own neighborhood, who
sat on the case, who heard all the ey-
idence, knew more about the justice of
il than the sentimentalists who, many
years after, are so eagerly rushing
petitions to the governor to pardon the
man
Don't let US have any more Of such
precedents. If it becomes an estab-
lished system in Georgia thai one can
be a forger, or a burglar, or a high
Wayman, or a murderer, escape, and
when captured avoid punishment on
the plea OF subsequent good DenaFlof,
a terrible blow will have been dealt to
the cause of justice. Why not pardon
rapist on the same ground, provid-
ed he can prove that he never subse-
quently repeated the offense?
Gov. Brown has a good rcord so far
in the pardon business. Let him
maintain IT. The abuse of the pardon
ing power in this country is one of
the provocatiVes of crime The best
preventive of misdeeds is the fear OF
punishment Remove that, substitute.

"BREAKING DOWN CIVILIZATION"
New York WORLD

New York WorldD
Sir. Edward Grey, one Of the sanest
of European statesmen, uttered in the
British naval debate. this impressive
warning:
Unless the incOngruity and mis-
chief Cof mounting military costs) be
brought home not only to the heads Of
men generally bu. to their feelings as
well, the rTalry will continue
and it must in the long run break
down civilization. You are having this
great burden piled up in times OF
peace, and if it goes on increasing by
leaps and bounds as 1T has done in
the last generation it will become in
tolerable. There are those who think
that it will lead to war precisely be-
cause it is already becoming intoler-
able think it much more likely THAT
the burden VIII be dissipated by an
internal revolution, by a revolt OF the
masses of men against taxation
Great Britain, a rich nation with
nearly a million paupers and many
pressing social problems, a nation eX-
ceptionally removed from danger Of
attack from without, is spending more
than a half a billion dollars a year up
on war, and the cost steadily mounts.
Chancellor Lloyd-George a year ago
reckoned the annual war cost Of
Europe at $2,25O,OO0,OOO, a total nearly
doubled in twenty years and likely to
double again in less than ten if the
madness is not stopped.
President Jordan of Leland Stanford
University, has computed the debts
of Europe at $26,OO0,0 100000 The
sum is inconceivably vast 1t eX-
ceeds the total wealth of Italy, Spain
and the Netherlands. In our own
country, eX-Chairman Tawney, OF the
House Appropriations Committee, es-
timated that II per cent. of national
expenditure is directly or indirectly
military; and in part at least for his
protest against such wanton waste he
was assailed in his district by for
mer president of his own party and
beaten in the primaries last fall.
Before he was seized by the Mexican
madness Mr.. Taft had made overture'
to European nations which should
prove of the utmost value in promot-
ing peace. To these expressions Sir
Edward Grey paid deserved tribute
If the British cabinet can atone for
weakly yielding to the jingoes, and
Mr.. Taft for his reactionary "maneu-
vers," by framing an Anglo-Ameri-
can treaty to submit even matters OF
national honor to arbitration, they
will have done much to let in the light
where the great nations Of the
earth are in bondage, increasing bon
dage," with their prison door locked
on the inside"
Humanity has no higher cause oI
Idearer hope.
