Extra Session Predicted.

Senator Albert B. Cumminssof To-
wa, in a statement made public dur
ing the early part of the week pre-
dicted that President Wilson would
call a special session Of Congress by
Sept. 1.
For the sake of the general pub
lie and for the safety and welfare of
the country at large. it is to be hoped
that Senator Cummins is mistaken.
Senator Cummins assigns as his
reason for such a prediction that
President Wilson will not be willing
TO assume entirely the cares, respon-
sibilities and problems of our interna-
tional relations; that by that time
he will be glad to divide the burden
with Congress.
1t does seem unfair to place the
entire responsibility on the shoulders
of the president, but the people of
the United States would much prefer
to trust the entire situation to him
Just now rather than have Congress
handle the situation.
One of the chief objections to be
offered in opposition to special SEES
sion of Congress at this time is that
the temptation to talk would be too
great for resistance, and, yielding to
it members in both houses, under
the excitement of unusual foreign
and domestic conditions, would talk
too much.
We have had all the talk we care
to hear just now from Col. Bryan. No
one has ever doubted the distin-
guished gentleman's ability to talk
about anything under the sun, and
talk until our ears tingle. He may
be said to be conversational gat-
Ting gun. Words flow from his lips
at all times and in all places. What
we want now is little silence. We
want a summer of rest and quiet.
President Wilson has not complained
of the burden he is carrying. After
it is all over he will enjoy a rest.
Just now he enjoys the unquestioned
confidence of the American people,
and so long as he expresses will
ingness to guide the ship, Congress
had better remain in the background.
1t is a conceded fact that when
Congress does convene. whether in
an extra or regular session, there is
going to be a cyclone of talk. Condi-
tions are not only unusual. but ex-
traordinary. and must remain SO for
some time to come. There are many
questions for Congress to consider.
Old questions have assumed new
forms. Questions thought to have
been settled have been unsettled.
These must be adjudicsted according
to their recent lights and conten-
tions. ~, tstt
Let us. however. cling 10 the old
Biblical injunction "Suficient unto

Attempts at Violence at Home of
SlatOn Cease.

Atlanta, June 27.-No untoward
incident occurred today at the subur-
ban home of former Gov. John M.
Slaton. and so far as the authorities
could learn. there we're no further
rumors of attempts at violence by
those opposed to the cummutation of
Leo M. Franks death sentence. The
military guard was maintained. how
ever, and there was no intimation
when Il would be withdrawn.
The former Governor tonight said
he would request the Fulton County
authorities not to prosecute the
twenty six men arrested at his home
Saturday and held In the county jail.
He said no good could come from
prosecution and that the men pro-
badly were directed by persons who
had not been apprehended.
Few of the prisoners have explain
ed their presence near the Slaton
estate. Some said they. had been
fishing in q nearby stream. while one
asserted he had set out to purchase
cattle In the neighborhood when the
militia men stopped his automobile
and arrested him and his chshuneur.

Hartford Loses Hard Game.


Central City defeated our boys
here last Saturday by getting all
the breaks in luck. Our infield had
a nightmare the first inning and al
lowed a run on errors. Rick pitched
a steady game, allowing five hits.
Our team was sadly slumped in stick
work and here was where bad luck
figured. Time after time line drives
went straight into the enemies
trenches and lost us runs.

Underwood Law Still Injuries Ameri-

NdI
With the definite object of show
ing injury done by the Underwood
Tariff law to those industries having
TIC heaviest foreign competition. and

by total import statistics, the Hos
iery Manufacturers Legislative Com
mittee. through its chairman, (. II.
Brown. have suggested the following
th,tty-six products, making monthly
CT mparisons between the imports 81

time to prove that it would. even
injuring American industries, and
that the law was in operation before
the war for sufficient length of
time to prove that it would, even
tually. have closed down our mills
or resulted in a heavy reduction of
wages.
The March 1915 imports of alumni
mum mfs., alinum scrap, automobile
parts, cotton cloth, cutlery, clocks &
parts, enambled ware, films & plates
fruits & nuts, glassware, handker-
chiefs, knit-goods, lace & lace arti-
cles, leather gloves, leather & tanned
skins, nets& MEETINGS, oil & linoleums
paper, perfumery shingls. silks. arti-
fetal silk, stockings, tin plate, watch
es & parts, wood pulp, wool, wool
mfs., linen yarns, breadstuffs, eggs.
fish meat G. VARY products, seeds,
and vegetables make remarkable
showing.
But three of the above products,
wool, handkerchiefs and shingles
show an increase over imports in
1914, but the total Of the above pro-
ducts in March 1915 are $3S,S07,-
400 as compared wit h$4S,536,974 in
March 1914, and $25,S6S,300 in
March 1918 under the Payne law, a
fact which will undoubtedly convince
manufacturers OF the above products
that the Underwood law, even now
is doing them serious injury. and it
can be stated without fear of
contradiction that the low price at
which the above products can be sold
in this country, due entirely to the
low rates of duty under the Under
wood Law, prevents American manu-
facturers from successfully compel
ing.
Although the imports of stockings
have fallen off to some extent, there
were enough goods in bond when the
Underwood Law went into effect,
with what has been imported since,
to- prevent revival of the hosiery
trade, except i'm spots due entirely to
war, and we wish to state right here,
that a large proportion of the hosiery
mills in this country cannot work a
full force full time.
1t may be of interest to know that
the average ad valorem rate of duty
based on imports for consumption
was, for the nine months ending
March 1913, IS per cent. for the
nine months ending March 1914,
1884 per cent; and for nine months
ending March 1915 it was 1912 per
cent, while for March 1915 only, the
rate was 1856 per cent. and until
American labor is better protected
against foreign low wages. it seems
hardly possible that this country can
become prosperous.

The people have been very jealous in
its defense ever since. Publishers Of
periodicals which have preached doc
trincs a great majority Of Americans
utterly despised have found unoxpect-
ed friends when petty oflicialism has
attempted to suppress them. Perhaps
we have gone TO the extreme Of
license, but il is the safer extreme.
Americans have firm faith in the
triumph Of right. They believe that
nothing will sooner kill bad doctrines
than their free discussion. Publishers
are properly held responsible for as
saults on individual regulations and
for violations Of the laws Of common
deceney. But the people resent any
attempt TO hold publishers to legal
accountability for the expression Of
opinion on general questions, and eff
forts TO establish a censorship in adj
vance of publication will fail as long
as American principles retain their
pristine vigor.
Mr.. Miller was correct in his state
men that there is power greater
than Congress TO make newspapers
honest. II is the power of the readers. !
There have been few instances in !
history where certain sell
FISH interests have acquired news
