IAssailing the
Dignity Of the Senate.

i SENATOR Hepburn feels that the dig
r,tv Of the senate has been assaile'i
vhen President Taft serves notice that
urlesa IL. votes for thea reciprocity
agreement, an extra session VIII be
called.
According to the original code Of
ethics prescribed for presidents, Pres
ident Taft has overstepped his bounds.
but looking at the situation from an
other standpoint he IL altogether right.
The president was originally supposed
- recommend and not force legislation.
but recent conditions have changed
methods and these conditions have TO
be met
ORIGINALLY, senators and representa-
tives were supposed to represent the
wishes Of the people they represented,
and II the present senators had done
and insistd upon this the president
would not have been called upon to
demand the passage of the reciprocity
agreement and assume the attitude Of
Q car.
President Taft and the Republican
party gave the impression that the
tariff would be lowered. and on this
impression the voters elected him and
the other Republican ofiice-seekers. Il
che tariff had been revised according
to promise; II the senate had insisted
upon lowering Of the tariff. then tho
dignity of that august body would not
have been assailed, as some of Its
members now claim.
There is no question but that it IL
! bad precedent for the president to as
sumo the role Of car. but in this
case he has the masses behind him and
no Ill effects can result. though it Is
setting q precedent which may be re-
peated when It wit work against what
Is best for the country.
It gives the president added power
which. If used wrongly, will eventually
ruin the freedom Of our government
He will know what any coming new
members VIII stand for and on theil
assistance can almost force any laws
he desires.
II the senate feels that its dignity
has been assailed. its members have
the privilege OF refusing to act upor
the presidents suggestion-it is mo-
compulsory on their part and it i:
strictly up to them to uphold the dig.

are wholly distinct. and both are subject
TO the approval and ratification Of the Con-
grcss Of Honduras Even il the treaty is
approved there will he nothing TO prevent
Honduras from rejecting the contract and
making better one II It can. No pressure
whatever was brought to bear on Hon
duras except, of course such pressure as
resulted from the prospect that unless the
United States came TO the assistance of
that republic its European creditors would
inevitably demand a settlement Of the Hon
duran debt under terms far less favorable
than those afforded by the pending conven-
tion and the Morgan loan.
But, even now that the contract has been
signed. Honduras is entirely free to disap-
prove it and to undertake to make some
ob,ainable. In the estimation Of the De
