jority of congressman should quit
Washington just now, and many of
them being democrats. place the ad-
ministration in an awkward and en-
barasSing position regarding the
in the house and consideration OF
the currency bill in the senate, is
something that those who are in
Washington were unable to decide
house members cannot be mustered
at time when the democrats are
sorely needed and particularly at a
time when the president should
sworn TO stand by him became pat
ent here today, when Washington
papers took up the subject and dis
cussei it vigorously.
The absence of so many demo-
Gratis in the house is the occasion OF
much horse play at the hands OF
Mr.. Mann, minority leader, and un-
friendly jibes al the majority. For
the past week he has ridiculeI them
mercilessly and both Yesterday and
today this was most pronounced. He
has suggested. among other things.
that possibly after the worlds series
OF baseball games now going on is
ended the democratic members who
have absented themselves will re-
turn TO their places.
What the reason may be for the
members to have silently stolen
away from their duties. and what
may be the impulse actuating them
in going elsewhere just because the
tariff bill is out Of the way and thus
granting to themselves a self-yote1
vacation. are Of course, known only
to themselves. but the fact IS that
there is only one place for them now

pose for which they were elected.
