WASTE FIVE HOURS IN TALK
Merits of Case Not Entered Into
Roll Calls Forced till At
tendance Dwindles to
Almost Nothing

Washington, May 13.--Senate repub-
leans began their big fight on Prcsi-
dent Wilson's nominations TONIGHT
whom the appointment of w. J. Harris
OK GEORGIA as director of the census
succeeding e. Dana Durand, was taken
up IN executive session. For nearly
I'VE hours the Senate played at cross
purposes on the Harris nomination
wtfhous entering into discussion of
the rnerits of the case.
The republicans forced roll call after
roll call on questions of procedure and
IN support of tactics which the demo-
Gratis termed dilatory. Finally, when
the membership on both sides had
dwindled 10 almost nothing, adjourn
ment was taken until tomorrow noon
with the Harris nomination just where
1t was when the doors were closed
shortly before four o'clock.
republican leaders have served no.
uce that they expect to keep up the
fight against the confirmation of Har-
ris until July l, at least, when Mr.
Durahd mas announced his Intention to
quit. Under the Senate rules there Is
no question of their ability to filibus-
ter to their hearts content, and If they
are willing to 60 into long executive
sessions day after day they can pre
vent confirmation long as their
talking powers last.
During the debate tonight an unsuc.
cessful attempt was made to invoke the
famous Reed rule" by which members
present in the chamber but not voting
were counted in an attempt to disclose
a quorum This innovation brought forth
moro speeches.
y minority report against Harris was
filed by Senator Townsend and Senators
La Toilette and Cummins, also of the
census committee. Senator Burton and
other republicans were interested in the
case Senator Burton declared after the
debate had proceeded for several hours
that he was willing to review the his
tory of the census from the present day
to the time of Babylon before he would
see Harris confirmed.
The republican fight ccnters largely on
| the contention that offices requiring
| technical knowledge or scientific attain
ments should not be given as political
rewards but that qualifications and ex-
| perience should be the only yardstick.
While no charges have been made
| against Mr.. Harris. the republicans
| claimed that he was not so we'll quail
fled by experience, Mt least, TO hold the
office as was Mr.. Durand. Mr.. lIar-
ris was chairman of the democratic
state executive committee OF Georgia in
the last campaign and Is known as an
| original Wilson man. His appointment
was one of the early ones to important
| offices sent in by President Wilson.
! Republicans on the census committee
served notice almost Immediately after
| the appointment that they expected to
| fight his confirmation. Efforts were
made by democrats who wished to
smooth out the difficulties to have Mr.
| Durand retained IN office until July l.
but at n meeting of the committee 10
days ago the nomination was ordered
| by majority vote, Senator Townsend,
| the only republican present, voting
against II and throwing down the gage

A Battle That Preluded Peace.

The published forecast Of the Perry centennial
celebration suggests the grateful reflection that this
anniversary of a battle will be made an occasion OF
cOmmemorating and confirming peace. This feature
Of it will be displayed and emphasized by the par
ticipatOn in 1t Of distinguished Canadian states
man, whose address will be bracketed with that Of
the President of the United States.
That this should be so IS eminently fitting The
battle Of Lake Erie may properly be considered to
have marked the elimination Of the War of 1s12
There some serious operations after that, in
Guiding of most regrettable nature. But
after Pery's victory the end was in sight and the
character of that end was assured II was the Get
tysburg of that war.
This centenary will therefore he In fact the prel-
ude to the greater celebration of year later which
will mark the completion of century Of unbroken
peace. 1t will be profitable to be reminded Of the
fact that that last war between Anglo Saxon ma
lions while II was marked on both sides with splen-
did heroism was also the occasion OF conduct which
both sides remember only with shame; that il
was war which neither side wanted and in which
neither side secured what 1t was fighting for: and
that in brief II Of the strongest indictments
Of war and one Of the most onvncing arguments
for the wiser principles which have ever since pre-
vailed In Anglo-American relations.

"Dishonorable and Illegal.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
sir The impeachment or Governor Sui
ger has exhibited a very extraordinary
spectacle that has not been noticed In
your columns. which. perhaps, may be
decisive i'm the Governors favor.
An impeachment must originate in the
Assembly. and that body becomes the
prosecuting party kindred To that Of the
plaintiff in an ordinary action at law.
The Assembly prepares its charges against
the accused officer and he presents his
answer 10 them, and the issues thus
raised are TO be tried and disposed OF by a
court consisting OF tho members Of the
state Senate or a majority of them and
tho judges OF the Court Of Appeals or a
majority OF them.
BY all law, both human and divine, no
party has right 10 sit as either judge
or juror 10 decide and dispose Of the case
make the administration Of Justice dis
gushing and audacous farce.
The movement against the Governor is
one I'm which the Senate and the Assembly
united in prosecuting. Those two bodies.
In mutual cooperation, appointed a joint
committee. and James j. Frawley was
made chairman. that committee made Wig
orous and Industrious Investigations and
as the Joint representatives OF the two
houses instituted the proceedings In that
transaction the Senate Is equally with the
Assembly party litigant prosecuting the
Governor. and II has. by its own delib-
crate act. ousted itself from jurisdiction
10 determine and dispose OF the issues
that have been raised.
The Governor has not n more wllful
and malicious enemy on earth eager TO do
him any injury in his power than Mr..
Frawley appears to be. and II he pre-
sents himself TO sit as a member OF the
Court OF Impeachment II will be Indeed
strange II he Ia not challenged. For sim
liar reasons the whole Senate, or. at least.
those members that voted TO unite In the
movement against the Governor. might
well be challenged.
The impeachment is absolutely and con-
cusively invalid. The positive and con-
elusive terms OF the state constitution
are: AT extraordinary sessions no subject
shall be acted on except such as the
Governor shall recommend for consdera-
ton" That prohibition protects the Gov
ernor, and the proceedings that have been
Instituted are an audacious attempt TO
trample his rights into the dust.
His rights are as sacred as anybody's.
