be the renewal of the British and Continental feeling
of uneasiness and discomfort about American amateur
sports
The outcome must be rigid explanation OF the
twilight zone" in athletics occupied by no small
number of American athletes In view of this latest
asco, the problem must be disposed OF once and Tor
all time. Thus we see, for example, well-known
football coach, whose salary as coach has often
been the subject of newspaper comment, appearing IN
an amateur tennis tournament and calmly accepting
the prizes he wins.
The conditions surrounding certain college ath-
Ietes are not above suspicion. We believe that
President Faunce, of Brown, once expressed him.
self as not averse having students play ball in the
summer to help themselves through college, and
doing it openly and above board, but no formal
recognition of the twilight zone has yet come about
Now would be good time to clear up the situ-
alton, but, manifesy, if strict universal amateur
rule is to be adopted and upheld, the semi-profes-
siona of every description must be put out of the
way.

CIVIL SERVICE AND SUFFRAGE.

In response to inquiries, the Civil Service Com
mission has issued assurance that there will be no
improperly in Government employees marching in
the woman suffrage parade at Inauguration time.
Such question being asked, of course the COM
mission, being sane and having arrived at years of
discretion, could make no other answer.
But it does seem curious reflection on the at
ttude of mind of Government employees, tnat any
should feel the need of getting such an assurance
before deciding to take part in such demonstra-
ton.
The Civil Service Commission might as properly
be asked whether there would be objection to Gov
ernment workers joining the Presbyterian Church,
doing their shopping on street, wearing shoes
on both feet.
Civil service workers are still American citizens;
they need not fear to wear either blue or brown
eyes; they are at liberty to appear in red hair if it
seems most convenient; and as to marching in a
suffrage parade their status is exactly like that of
other Americans. They are at liberty to march if
their duties don't require attention during the hours
when the marching is good.

MR.. WILSON AND CONGRESS.

If Mr. Wilson, as President, undertakes to deal
with Congress as he has dealt with the New Jersey
Legislature the result will be watched with interest
A forecast was given in his recent address to the
Senate of New Jersey. The governor said
1 have sometimes had occasion to hit few heads,
but whenever have hit head it was because there
was thing behind it.
Mr. Wilson has said time and again that his cleo
ton as governor made him the leader of his party
in the State, and charged him with moral respon-
sbility extending beyond the confines of his const-
tutional field. Even he is illustrating by prac-
tice his understanding of what the duties of such
leader are. He summoned the members of the Leg
isature to his Office, where he conferred with them
for two hours in an effort to bring about the passage
of his reform bills before his new duties carry him
to the Nations Capital
If there was special need in New Jersey there
will be in Washington. The Democratic majority in
the Senate will be a mere thread, with sufficient
number of Democratic standpatters to tie things up
il they wish, and the Progressves holding the real
balance II would be bold political prophet indeed
who would dare to predict that the Senate will do
one thing or another on any subject involving a
direct alignment after March 4.
So it will be decidedly worth watching to see if
the new President will chit few heads" of men,
bers of the greatest legislative body on eartn when
hc Ce'- reaoy tc carry our bis program of national
legislation.
The Senate has shown again and again that it is
not an easy body to lead or drive. Unless the ma
joriy turn out to be Unexpectedly tractable there
are sure to be interesting developments after
March 4.

NOT THAT WAY, GENTLEMEN!

Congress is talking about amending the Cousti-
tuition to limit Presidents to single term of six
years.
Immediately the merits of the proposition are OBJ
scured by discussion of the possibility that three or
four of our leading citizens might be the victims of
such regulation. Presdent-elect Wilson's sponsors
don't want to put him out of the 1916 running; he
might be the only available Democrat by that time
and in such case, what of platform pledge!
Colonel Roosevelts supporters suspect strongly
that the one-erm proposal is aimed squarely at him.
They are very likely right about it.
Mr.. Bryans friends fancy the one-term idea
right keeny; it looks to unloading Wilson after one
term and making way for the Nebraskan.
There is even sporadic movement for the nomi-
nation of Mr.. Taft once more by the Republican
party; by no means inappropriate, either. 1t would
make one coroner's inquest serve for both.
Now, the question of an amendment to the Con-
sttution of this importance ought not be determined
on such narrow, personal considerations.
Let Messrs. Wilson, Roosevelt Bryan, Taft and
all the other ex-Presidents, Presidents, and Presi-
Dental aspirants be excluded from consideration
If necessary, amend your resolution with provision
that it shall not take effect for say eight wears after
its adoption. That would let the ex-Presidents get
