BORAH IS AVAILABLE.

The trend of political development
indicates that Senator Borahs nomi-
nation for president next year is not
only possible, but highly probable,
and party leaders in this state should
initiate movement for concerted ef-
forts to accomplish it. In the past,
from the view point of geographical
location, a son of Idaho would have
received but little consideration from
his party, but past party differences
and present party controversies make
1t certain that the character of the
man, what he stands for and his
political strength will be the decisive
factors instead in the next National
convention, and in these essentials,
Senator Borah stands second to no
Statesman in the entire Nation. We
understand that Senator Borah Is not
to be considered as seeking the nomi-
nation. but in appreciation of his
many notable achievements for the
state in the United State senate, we
should wage the ablest struggle we
are capable of to effect his nomi-
nation. 1t would be no light distinc-
tion for Idaho to furnish the next
president of the United States.

80 Per Cent of Recent
Laus May Be Invalid
Constitutional Experts Point Out that Congressional Record
Shows President Signed Most Of Legislation After
Congress Technically Had Adjourned

Mr.. Wilson. however did not take
this precaution. There is nothing TO
show that the approval did not take
place after the Congress had expired.
The President could have avoided this
possibility by signing March g."
signing actually took place during the
legislative day OF March 5.
Speaker Champ Clark, recognizing
this, caused the journal of March 3
TO be altered so as 10 show that a
COMMITS actually appointed by him
on March to Investigate the fl
nances OF the District of Columbia
was appointed on the legislative day
of March 3. This alteration was real
ly necessary, because he had not real
lied that his term as Speaker ex-
pired on March =, and with il the ap-
pointing power which had ben con-
ferred upon hIm by special enactment.
While laymen, il is argued, might
consider tins hair-splItting uues-
ton of time. its seriousness can be
understood better by considering the
situation that might arise on the ex-
piration of Presidents term. If
inc court were 10 sustain
the practice OF approving bills on
March an outgoing President, whose
term really expires on March 3, might.
instead of turning over the reins Of
government TO his successor at noon
of March I, insist on exercising the
functions of President until midnight
of March 4, and there would be two
Presidents for at least the space Of
twelve hours. Therefore, II Is rea-
soned. the court would not care TO
sustain March 1 signatures because OF
the troublesome precedent thai would
be set.
About three-fourths of the appro-
priation acts. appropriatlng almost .
billion dollars. are included In the
legislation OF doubtful validity. Dozens
of private and public acts are also in.
c!uded. One OF the laws is the So
called seamen's law abrogating
number of treaties and imposing new
rules upon steamships that are de-
clared to be unduly burdensome
The Washington herald., 1915-03-22

The assertion was made yesterday that
fully 81 per cent of the legislation passed
at the last session of Congress is OF
doubtful validity as the result of Presi-
dent Wilson'S failure to observe const!-
tutional safeguards In attaching his sig
nature to laws passed late in the session.
As long as the question OF validity IS
never raised II Is conceded, no harm will
result II. however, the courts are asked
to pass upon the question. It is consid-
cred quite likely, In the op!nionto OF con-
Stitutional experts, that the government
may be subjected to serious embarrass-
ment :or the situation gives prospec-
tive litigants an opportunity TO resist
20 the utmost the enforcement OF many
OF these laws.
The whole trouble arises because the
President attached TO dozens of bills
signed by him on the morning of March 4
the words approved March 4. 1916
Woodrow wilson The present session
of Congress expired by Limitation on
March and the constitution provides
that the President may not approve
bill after the end OF Congress. He
has ten days within which to sign a
bill but this period may not run after
. Anal adjournment. While Congress
usually sits until noon of March l. the
records show only the legislative day OF
March 8. There is really no such thing
as the legislative day of March L. The
period from midnight of March ;. TO
noon Of March is really only a 'twi-
light zone" between Congresses which
by general consent is Classed as a legis-
latlve "no-man's land"
A.. this would not be serious We're II
not for the fact. II Is stated. that the
permanent record and the journal WI!
show these laws were approved on March
The Supreme Court Ia constituting
laws always has held that the record
O: Congress IL conclusive. no matter
what the actual facts are. II bill
failed OF passage and the record showed
otherwise. the record would decide final
ly the matter
In the present instance the record
shows the President approved all
these laws or March T. the day after
the Congress had expired When
Theodore Roosevelt was President he
signed and dated bills on March 4.
but he added approved March 4. 1850
a m," and SO forth. so as to show
tina, he signed the bills before noon
OF March 4. meaning the Legislative
day of March 3.
