Denounces Ship Purchase
Measure and Methods of
Administration.
MAJORITY TRYING
TO FORCE PASSAGE
Attitude of Democrat. characterized
as Conspiracy of Silence to Put
Thru Bill by Pressure of physical
Weakness"-Minority Member De-
bate Unheard-Departure by Senate
Dangerous to Country.

Washington. Jan. Ex-senator Root
ministration ship bill today in the sen
ate with Il denunciation of the demo-
cratic caucus. which made the bill a
party measure: of the parliamentary
tactics by which the democrats have
so far forced the republicans to do all
the debating. and, finally, with q de-
nunciation of the bin itself.
The attitude of the democrats he
characterized as "a conspiracy OF
silence" to put thru the bill by pres
sure of physical weakness" For ten
days he said, "the minority has been
forced to eight hours of continuous
talking without n reply from the demo
cratic side. and with not more than a
dozen democrats in the chamber.
Proper Discussion Lacking.
ut does not seem to me that this bill
is receiving the kind of discussion il
should have" he said. 1T Is important
not merely because it involves a .ast
expenditure at n time when we have
been forced to make up deficit: hut
also because 1t emharks the govern :
ment on new departure based on n
reversal of principles of government
long maintained. No such change in
policy was contemplated by the peo-
pie when they put the present admin
stration In power.
",rhe fact that this measure can not
have that kind of discussion which 1t
demands Mt this short session. shows
that 1t ought not to pass at this ses
sion.
Dangerous Departure by Senate.
II have been present in legis'ativo
bodies when no voice was clsar enough.
no courage high enough, to break
away from the custom which accepted
and registered the direction Of a chief
executive. Let us not be too confident
that we are proof against that process
I'VE abandon today the performance
of our function by so discussing the
measure among ourselves II, to enIisht
en- the public, and we have taken n step
further than ever before In the process S
OF making us n registering body ruth sr
than Legislative body. We have
taken a step fraught with dangers and
fatal to a representative government
"Thc liberties Of free people de-
pend on the courage and persistency OF
a minority They depend also upon the
Independence OF thought and action O.
all members OF n legislative body. II
W. are but to register aa'i smother out

MIS- SPELLED WORDS

What the Herald wants is the
news. and so long as we get the
news we don't care how it is
spelled; but we believe it would
be matter of interest to our
correspondents as well as to our
readers in general to call atten.
ton to some words that are some
times mis-spelled by some of OUR
correspondents. Our orthogra-
ply being on the barbarous Or
der, there is little Ter that
some words are mis-spelled by
people in general; but in fact
this serves only to auo interest
to such words when attention is
called to them. For this reason
we shall for time call attention
to some words that are mis-spell. (.
ed by some of our correspond
ents.
One of our correspondents has
two words that are miS-spelled,
the O. hers, big and little, being
spelled correctly. Sunday is one
of those words, the correspond
ent spelling it with ano. Cedars
is the other word, the correspond
ent spelling it with three e's. AS
several of our correspondents
miss this word, please notice
that the word has one and one
a. and that the is in the last
syllable. Also notice shat the
hisser is C and rot S.
Anothe- word that is missed
by a few o. oar correspondents
is the middle day of the week
Wednesday. This is undoubtedly
one of the bar barous words, but
if those who mis-spell it will think
of wedens day and then make it
Wednesday, they will have it
right-Wed mes day.
This gives us three words this
week. and aext week we shall
call attention to IA few more.
Meantime, if those who have.
! missed those words can locate
themselves, it will be of direc,
interest to them, as we'll as being
of general interest to the public
