SENATE WILL BLOCK
FILLING OF OFFICES
TAFT'S AvoWED INTENTION TO
FILL ALL EXPIRING OFFICES
NOT APPROVED.

Washington, Nov. 24.-There are sig
nificant rumors today that the senate,
during the coming short session, may
decline to confirm any of the appoint
ments of President Taft or to pass any
bills carrying out the recommendations
of his message. This stand, 1t Is said.
will be the result of concerted action
among the democrats who desire to
have President-elect Wilson make all
pending appointments and secure
credit for important new legislation.
In a word, the proposed plan would
nullify the Office of president for the
next three months. There is no i'll
will toward Mr.. Taft in this proposed
policy, but merely desire to secure
party advantage.
This course of action is being sup
ported by new Interpretation of the
constitution which, to say the least, is
ingenious. Democratic senators, or
many of them, have come to the con-
clusion that the men who framed the
constitution and who provided for a
four months interim between election
and Inauguration, were taking cogniz-
ance of conditions that do not exist
today. They hold that at the time the
constitution was framed it was felt
that four months would be necessary
for an orderly transfer Of the admin.
istration from one president to an.
other, the spreading of Information as
to the result of the election. and the
stage-coach trips of the electors from
all parts of the United States.
Because of the facilities for spread.
fy,cr IN, ~ o11 NJ
of the country, and the modern trans.
portation facilities, the democratic
leaders feel that there is no longer
Fergus County Democrat., 1912-11-26

any excuse for a president retaining
his full power after the country has
voted in favor of the substitution of
another man and party. They hold
that the country, not only in the re-
cent election, but in the congressional
elections two years ago, rejected the
republican party, and that it would be
unfair for that party, or its representa-
tive in the White House, to continue
to exercise the appointive power, in
view of the fact that another party
has been commissioned to take charge
of affairs.
President Taft has indicated that
he deems it his duty to make appoint
ments to all vacancies, without leav-
ing the work for his successor. In
many instances, he feels that such a
course would save Mr.. Wilson en-
barrassment. He intends to send to
the senate the nomination of a sue
cessor to DR.. Harvey w. Wiley, chief
chemist of the department of ,agricul-
ture, the nomination of nine members
of the industrial commission, and the
appointment of several postmasters,
collectors, surveyors and judges of the
federal courts.
All these appointments, however,
will be hung up in the senate by the
concerted action of the democrats, If
the plan now being considered is
adopted. Moreover, the recommends
tions in the presidents message will
be completely ignored. The president
will appeal for the passage of a work
mems compensation act, currency re-
form, budget system of setting forth
expenditures and revenues of the gov
ernment, and several equally desirable
reforms. All, the democrats say, will
be ignored.

Canal to Be Well liuhted.

New York, Nov. 21.-Details of the
lighting equipment being installed at
the Panama canal by the army engi-
neers, which when completed, will set
Uncle Sans shortcut through the
continent up as rival for glitter to
Broadway and which will make navi-
cation safe at all hours of the night,
were described today by James Patti
son in paper before the convention
here of naval engineers and architects
Mr.. PattisOn was one of the engi-
neers who assisted in making the
plans. To accomplish this a double
row of automatic acetylene lighted
buoys are being placed along the
canal. and the channel will be further
defined by powerful rapld-f1ashing
range lights which will be stationed
at various points along the waterways.
Through the Culebra Cut or wher-
eve rthe proximity of the bank per-
mits, beacons will be used instead of
buoys.
Acetylene was selected instead of
oil for the lighted buoys, Mr.. Pattison
explained, because of its superiority
to oil for the purposes of the case at
hand. Burned in self-luminous burn
er, he said, acetylene gives an intense.
ly concentrated white light, compar-
able only to sunlight and five times
as powerful as the light from oil.
This system already has been in
stalled in 800 important light stations
of the United States and possessions,
and is the system in use at Ambrose
Channel.
From Gatun Dam through Gatun
Lakes to the point where the canal
enters the Culebra Cut double row
of sixty buoys will light the way with
flashing range lights assisting in max.
/ ing the channel clear to all navigators.

BEGINNING TO FAVOR
STATE BALL LEAGUE
STATE ADVOCATES
ONE THAT WILL INCLUDE
LEWISTOWN.

Capt. Stevens, of the Lewistown ball
team, expected to attend the meeting
of the Union association, scheduled
for last week at Butte, but for the
third or fourth time 1t was postponed.
Capt. Stevens was not especially dis
appointed, as he believes the delay
has greatly increased the chances of a
state league being formed and with
another railway actually completed in
to this city he will be able to make
a stronger bid to have Lewistown in
cluded in the state league, should one
be formed. There seems to be an
agreement that a state league is the
best solution of the problem now con-
fronting the magnates. Expressing
this idea the Treasure State says:
1t begins to look as though profess
sional baseball for Montana in 1913
is vanishing hope. The Butte lovers
of the national pastime are willing
and ready to proceed in spite of slight
financial losses this year. But in Hell
ena Maurice Weiss, the owner of that
franchise, has determined to quit.
The situation in Ogden is precarious
on account Of the announced depar.
ture of John McCloskey, and to add to
the uncertainty of life for the Union
association, the national baseball
commission Is threatening to put a
maximum limit of $1,000 on class d
leagues. The best move now possible
for the preservation of the sport in
Montana would be to begin the work
Of formulating strong state league
with Butte, Helena, Great Falls, Mis-
soula, Lewistown, Dillon, Billings and
Bozeman or some other strong town
in the lineup. Baseball is more
worthy Of encouragement than any
professional pastime, and as a link Of
friendly rivalry between the cities of
the state, it is an excellent promotive
of all-state interest and of mutual
inter-city advantage. The season ex-
penses of such league would be so
per cent less than those of an inter-
state league, and it is almost certain
public interest and patronage would
be greater. The promoters and lovers
of baseball in Montana should perfect
their plans before New Years and it
is not an exaggerated guess that the
Montana league plan will prove the
salvation and restoration of the great
game in this state.
