The Special SeSS ion.

President Taft is to be commended
for the firm stand he has taken TO Sc
cure the passage of the reciprocity
treaty with Canada. He has stated
that If the present congress does not
ratify the treaty he will call a special
session to convene April 4. If spec
ial session is called a number Of the
present members Of the senate who
are lighting the bill will not be in the
senate then as their time expires on
March 4. 1t is believed that these
changes will make possible the ratiti.
cation of the treaty.
President Taft believes that reci-
procity with Canada will be beneficial
TO this country and believes that the
larger majority Of the people favor it.
Holding this opinion he is undoubted-
ly right in his position that he will
call an extra session II the present
congress does not ratify the agree
ment. We would like to see the
agreement passed by Republican
house and senate because we think 1t
good Republican doctrine, but the
most essential thing is for 1t to pass.
We believe the President holds good
enough hand to 'stand pat"

political benefit. He is trying to
build his political career at the ex-
pense of che people. Some poor devil
is helping pay for an elegantly bound
set of books TO go into the library OF
some man, who, II he wanted them
could we'll afford to pay for them. 1t
is the lowest and most de e-picable kind
Of petty graft.
If the work was good one and the
sets we're distributed among people
who would read them and derive some
benefit from them it would be bad
enough, but as it is this expenditure
of the peoples money is an outrage.
So far as the welfare of the people
is concerned, the $4,000 spent In pub
fishing Howe's History of Ohio might
Just as well be taken and dumped
into sewer.

objectionable Waste.

We sometimes wonder whether the
members of the state legislature sim
ply are brainless idiots, common graf
ters or wilfully and wantonly extrav-
agant with the public money.
OF all the ways devised for throwing
the peoples money away we believe
the expenditure of a large sum of
money by each legislature for the
printing of Howe's History of Ohio
for free distribution is the worst and
most senseless.
A bill appropriating $4,000 for this
purpose has already passed the senate,
and we suppose will pass the house.
A similar bill has been enacted by
every legislature for years.
AS a historical work it is inaccurate,
unreliable and incomplete, making 1t
OF little value for student or as a
book Of reference. But even II 1t was
a literary production OF great merit
and contained complete and authen-
vic history OF our state there would be
no excuse for its publication at the
expense of the state.
Each member of the legislature is
allowed certain number Of the sets
Of this history for free distribution
among his constituents.
He will. of course, place them where
he thinks he will derive the most
