ITEMIzED VETO IDEA.

The veto by President Taft OF the
the general legislation carried therein,
and especially because of the attempt
to legsltae Chief of staff General
Wood out Of office, has raised again
the question whether 1T might not he
best to give the President by law the
power to sign bill in general and at
the same time veto certain items III
1T. Thus in the case now presented,
the President under the changes pro
posed, would have the power to sign
the general appropriations carried in
the bill, but TO veto the general legis-
lation carried therin, such az has no
relation to the appropriations as made.
Under the constitution, such veto
of details is impossible. The President
must sign or veto as whole. In the
present case, undoubtedly the two
Houses of Congress will agree upon
the appropriations for the army, elm
mating the general legislation proposed
in 1t; for it is hardly to be expected
that enough votes can be rallied for
this general legislation to pass 1t over
the President 8 veto.
We do not expect ever to see the
President endowed with any such power
as is suggested: for it would be ter
rible weapon for the President to have.
Any "pork-barrel'' legislation, for in
stance, where p bill is made up through
giving certain favors by way OF river

ditures Of various kinds, the whole be-
ing massed with sufficient votes in each
House 10 carry it because enough mem
bers are taken into the pool to get the
votes, would be at the President s
mercy; it would be dreadful thing
indeed to have the President interfere
by vetoing these items one by one as
he considered them to be adverse to
the public interests. There could be
no log-rolling legislation, no "pork.
barrel" appropriations, with the Pres
ident having power to veto separate
items as proposed.
1t would require constitutional
amendment to confer this power upon
the President, and it is inconceivable
that the Senate and the House would
agree to have its membership shorn of

TO IMPEACH ARCHIBALD,

must indeed be black one when all

fee on the Judiciary vote to impeach
him. We do not mean to imply by this
that there would be expected to be any
division on party lines on a question of
this kind, but only that in a collection
of twenty-one men there is pretty GER
tain to be somebody on the off side if
there is the slightest opportunity for
taking that position.
The report of the hearing before the
committee, especially the testimony
with regard to Judge ArchbaId's par
ticipation in deals on culm piles. was
indeed very direct and positive. A
letter of Judge Archibald 's seemed also
corroborative Of the general proposition
that be was dealing in these piles un.
lawfully and prejudicially as regards
his judicial position
The next step in the procedure will
be for the committee to report it's con.

House will vote on the proposition 10

BUSINESS AND TRADE.

The mining fraternity was again re-
minded during the week of the neces'
sitv of pressure being brought to pear
upon official Washington in the mat
ter Of patcnting mining claims, by the
statement of the Department OF the
Interior that it was unwilling to alter
its present Objectionable course. Inc
department. intends to reverse Its own
attitude and the decisions of the courts,
refusing to be governed by the exlst"
ing laws, making the dlctatorial rec
ommendation that the laws should De
changed. The new position OF the OIL
ficials will make prospecting unpopular,
and the development OF new mines and
new fields impossible, and this is an In
Justice which the mining industry can
not afford to suffer.
Attention is cnlled again in this
mornings issue to the neces-
sity Of the Utah lead pro-
ducers collecting data on costs of min
ing for presentation before the next
session Of Congress. Mr.. George W.
Ritter pounds the matter home with con-
vincing force, and there can be no
question but what this is another inn
mediate need that will bear no delay.
Metal market conditions are nearer
the ideal than they have been in a
number Of years. The owner OF the
lead, copper, silver, and zinc mine new
er has had moro equitable smelling Ia
cilities at his disposal, and production
throughout the State is the greatest in
history. Mining companies are earn
ing literally, yet one would think from
stock market conditions that the State
was passing through one Of the most
pronounced starvation periods imagin-
able. The public remains out Of the
stock market locally, but fundament tai
conditions are so strong and epcourag'
ing that a marked change in this at
titude is logical at any time.
Eastern stock markets have marked
time as rule during the convention
week closed, and no pronounced up
ward trend is expected until after all
the political parties have named their
tickets and established their pro-
.grammes. Here again, fundamental
conditions are ideal for active stock
dealing, and the movement upward is
likely to begin without warning at any
day. For the investor with nerve and
patience there is situation presented
that will hardly be duplicated in years.
In the real estate market during the
past week, the experience of dealers
was that greater appreciation of city
property is growing in the public mind.
This may be partly due to the fact, too,
that the run heretofore had on small

SMoOT AND ALASKAN COAL.

1t is wonderful to see the pertinaclty
with which the idea is insisted upon
that the coal mines Of Alaska must be
held by the Government, and if worked
at all must be worked on lease. There
is no assurance that any one would want
TO open coal mine on a lease, nor Is
there the slightest promise of getting
the Alaska coal field opened under that
system. And yet the idea is pushed TO
the front all the time, 1t is embodied
in bill pending in the Senate, which
provides for the lease at fixed figure
per ton for the Government royalty,
on all the coal to be mined in Alaska.
Apostle Smoot of this State, however,
has brought in proposed amendment
which has merit, and which it is an
ton. The Smoot proposition Is TO make
the royalty follow the price of coal at
a fixed percentage. That is, whereas
the bill as brought IN provides for a
stated sum per ton on all coal mined,
the Smoot amendment provides for a
percentage on the selling price Of coal.
If the price rises, the Government gets
more; If it falls, the Government gets
less. The inflexible royalty proposition
might be very oppressive upon the
leasers when the price Of coal is low,
and at the same time it might be too
small if the price should become ex-
cessive. Therefore, the Smoot propo-
sition seems the moro businesslike. 1t
is possible, however, that practically
there might not be any very great diff
ference between the two propositions in
effect; and as we said in the first
place, it is rather unlikely that any
body would want to mine the coal in
Alaska upon leasehold tenure.
The bill limits the amount of land
that can be covered IN any one lease
to 1900 acres of land. that is, five
provision that no person shall be inter
ested in more than one lease, which is
held to be sufficient prohibition
against combination or consolidation.
The bill as it stands, with the Smoot
would admit of any per.
son, firm, or corporation leasing five
sections Of Government land for coal
nine. 1t would provide sliding scale
of royalty according to the price that
the coal would bring in the market,
and it would forbid any person, firm,
or corporation being interested in more
than one lease. This is surely restrict
i've enough, and we doubt very much
whether any development worth while
of coal measures in Alaska could be
had under that kind of law But
certainly the sliding scale proposed by
Smoot is better than a fixed royalty.

GERMANY AND NORTH AFRICA.

There has been a good deal of curl.
osity in the world at large to learn why
the German Emperor has interested
himself so strongly in north Africa.
1t Will be remembered that he paid a
visit to Tangiers, Morocco, which
turned out to be visit Of assurance to
the Sultan that Germany would not al
low the disposal of Morocco as contem-
plated in the British and French agree
ment. The result was the calling Of
the Congress Of Algeciras, which gave
Germany an equal standing in the dis
posal of Moroccan affairs with the
other nations in interest. There was
no appearance Of Austria or of Russia
in north African affairs. Why there
should have been au appearance OF
Germany has been wonder, and the
intrusion Of the Kaiser was evidently
surprise both to France and to Great
Britain.
More recently the Kaiser interposed
against French designs, and warned
France not to occupy Fee; but the oc-
cupation of Fez was in effect COM
pulsory, and then the Kaiser made his
descent upon Agadir.
The explanation OF this intense In
terest of Germany in north Africa
comes in recent accounts from Europe
1t appears that the German explorer
Rohlfs, distinguished authority on
Morocco and Lydia, who had been
through all the north African country,
got the ear Of the Kaiser and inclined
him to interference in north African
affairs. From 1869 on, Mr.. Rohlfs
had been jealous advocate Of the
seizure by Germany Of Cyrenaica, his
idea being to encourage Italy to seize
Tripoli oven at that early day. In 1890
Mr.. Rohlfs considered that the Turkish
rule in Tripoli was practically dead
