Congress and Confederate War Claims

Washington, Aug. 10.-Thousands of
war claims mounting up in the millions
may make heavy drain upon the
Treasury, If the amendments of which
Oscar Underwood's Democratic House
leader, is the author, is forced through.
Mr.. Underwood's amendment is the first
instance in fifty years where the barrier
of floyalty to the Government, which has
always been the basis of all war claims,
is absolutely shattered.
So far as the Democratic leaders,
amendment is concerned, the flood gates
are thrown open for the filing of hund-
reds of thousands of Confederate war
claims. If the Democratic leaders, policy
is approved, it may mean the payment Of
millions of dollars to the South. And it
q looks as though it might be, since Demo-
Gratis, south and north, followed Mr.. Un-
derwood in mis- break over the loyalty
bars like sheep.
Republican leader Mann fought against
the establishment of this unusual prece-
NSH' III 'ho hOuooi buI uo was bW6pI
away by the Democratic current.
The particular claim was that of Anto-
MO @, Lowell and heirs-at.law OF Confed-
crate General Quitmsn for federal occu-
patton of lands owned Ly that General,
in the crop year of 1865. The United
States Court of Claims rejected the claim
because the owners of the land failed to
establish their loyalty to the Govern
ment. The Standing Committee on War
Claims likewise rejected it, bat the DEM
ocratic leader put it through.
Concern has been expressed by those
who see the possible drain on the Treas
ury that this precedent may create, lest,
Immediately after the coming elections,
thousands of other such claims may be
considered and allowed, regardless of the
loyalty or disloyalty of claimants during
the war. Minority Leader Mann called
attention to this danger, but he was ig.
nored by the Democratic majority.

An EHeetive Rebuke,

Emperor Francis Joseph Of Austria
is not one of the most conventional Of
monarchS and sometimes rebukes his
officials in a fashion which comes per
llously near practical joke. On one
occasion the emperor sent message to
the official who was responsible for
keeping his roads in order, stating that
in II couple of days a royal carriage
would be sent to convey him to the
castle Of Lainz. On the day appointed
the emperor's coachman drove the otli-
cial ut full gallop over the worst roads
in the district, splashing him from head
to foot in mud. When he eventually
arrived at the castle he began profuse
apologies for the state of his clothes
to the grand duke, but was met with
the prearranged reply: "Oh, that's
nothingl The emperor comes home
like that every time he goes out for
drive" The officials roads were soon
put in perfect order.

Power of liqhtnina.

1t is hardly possible to use instru-
ments for the purpose of figuring the
forces Of lightning, yet there are many
other ways Of calculating familiar to
every mathematician. The amount Of
light given by single lightning fash
is enough to illuminate an area two
miles square. The bolt itself would
be visible several miles farther off, but
the remotest part of the region men,
toned would have as much light as
would be given by n candle-quite
enough to read by. To produce such u
light it would be necessary to eXpend
10000 horsepower for second. These
figures appear very large. but the time
is short. The flash might be for only
one-thousandth part of second. but
the Impression on the eye would con-
tinue for u tenth of a second anyway.
Figured down to an exact hour this
amount of force would mean only
about four horsepower.-Electric News.

Mayburg 7, Endeavor 6.

Mayburg won hard fought game at
home Saturday afternoon from Endeavor.
The game was ten-inning one and was
intensely interesting from start to finish.
Endeavor started the scoring in their half
of the first with two runs; Mayburg fol-
lowed with one each in the first and Sec
ond; Msyburg scored three times in the
third and once in the seventh; Endeavor
scored twice in the sixth and twice In the
seventh, making the score at the end of
the seventh tie. The struggle then went
on until Msyburg's half of the tenth,
when Fitzgerald by a timely single
brought in Cbilds with the winning run.

APRoPos OF the talk about general crop
production, indications are that the forth
coming Democratic "lame duck" crop
will be one of the largest in years. While
no statistics have as yet been given out
from the Democratic cloak room of the
House of Representatives, general reports
point to the belief that the number of
Democratic lame ducks" after the fall
elections will exceed the number of Off.
ces which President Wilson may have to
bestow on those who will have gone down
to defeat while carrying his banner in
their own home districts. More and
more Democratic Congressman are "torn
wit hconfictng emotions" in their dual
attempt to please the President and please
their constituents at the same time.

The surest barometer of political senti-
ment in the nation is the closk-room
talk in the House of Representatives.
The House has two "closk-rooms," Dem
ocratic and Republican. 1t is in these
rooms things are said freely which could
not be safely voiced on the floor OF the
House. In these rooms, congressman
gather and exchange political confden-
ces. Their expressions are free and un-
colored by political expediency. In short
they represent the thought of the "folks
back home" Leaks from the cloak-room
indicate belief among Congressman that
few Democrats will be elected from the
Northwest in the coming campaign. The
reason for this agreed on among Demo-
cratic Congressman (but not for publica.
tiso, of course) is the almost complete
abandonment by the Wilson administrs-
tion of the interests and industries of the
Northwest.

Porte's Plans Are Ideal
Say Aero Club Members

NEW YORK, June 20.-The Aero Club
OF America, which is AFFILIATED with the
National Federation Of Aero Clubs. has
sent congratulatory cablegrams to the
Aero Club Of England and the Aero
Club Of Spain after the members read
Of the aerial transatlantic course
planned by Lieut. John Cyril Porte. r.
N, who purposes to touch at the Azores
for gas and supplies and again at Vigo.
Spain. The members Of the club have
selected a committee to arrange for the
transportation Of a large party to st
Johns, Newfoundland, from where the
start of the most daring air trip ever
attempted will be made;
Aero Club. told the correspondent Of
The Times that Lieutenant Portes
projected course appeared to him to
be ideal. 1t followed almost to the
dot, said Hawley. the course laid out
by himself and several members OF
the club some time ago when the
Rodman wanamaker hydroaeroplane
and its possibilities of crossing the
Atlantic were first being discussed
Henry A. Wise Wood. former chair
man of the marine flying committee
ing. the Aero Clubs official publica-
tion. was even more enthusiastic con-
cerning Lieutenant Porte's projected
plan of flight.
"It Is the very best route that couiS
have been selected. 1t Is the safest,
most conservative and sensible itinerary
of a TRANSATLANTIC journey that 1 have
seen" said Wood. Every expert In
the club who has discussed it. and you
may be sure that since reading Lieuten-
ant Po-te's article we all have. says
that Lieutenant Porte has adopted a
route that is perfection itself, the ele-
raent Of the human equation Of course
being eliminated. His idea OF making q
stop at the Azores Is not the least ad-
mirabls part of the PLAN This viii
allow him a chance to correct LIS COM
passes and check UP his navigation
which is admittedly the most difficult
part of the problem.
"Of course the element Of chance Is
always present No human being can
hope to control the wind or weather
but. all things being favorable. and
Lieutenant Porte doubtless would not
start unless he had reports from every
obtainable source. there Is no question
but that the transatlantic flight will
before long be an accomplished fact
Hawley said the conservatism OF
Lieutenant Porte and his. what might
be called. safety first" ideas appealed
to him.
IT am sure that after we have bid
den Lieutenant Porte godspeed. that
the next news We will have of Him Will
be a wireless flash telling of his safe
arrival at one of his halting points"
said Hawley. THE thoughtful manner
in which he has mapped out every de-
tail practically insures success for his
voyage, unless some unforeseen OBJ
stacle, such as air travellers must al
ways face, crops up.

possible to extract the valuable and
useful parts.
In this regard the British practice
Of royal commissions Of qualified
experts for such inquiries is far su-
perior to our own method. 1t is this
method that makes the royal COM
mission reports carry authority
wherever they are studied: Thus, the
"Rullion Committee" report is &C
cepted as an authority all over the
world.
Mr.. Milliken's selection as an ex-
pert to help manage SUCH an inquiry
as is now proposed into rural cred
its, would guarantee that the work
would be handled intelligently and
with the certain purpose of getting
directly at essentials. The agricui-
tural journalists who have petitioned
for this management of the inquiry
include Herbert Quick, Wilmer At
kinson, Arthur Capper, and Alison
Secor; all of them students of the
subject in its widest relations, and
all genuinely interested in getting
light on it. The occasion is most
fitting one for undertaking a new
and improved procedure in illumi-
mating legislative fields.
