TALKING A CONGRESS TO DEATH

With a full attendance, the United States senate consists of ninety
six members. Everywhere else in this country a majority rules. If dla-

not be long before there would be a denial of justice and a wreck OF gov

Purchase bill, says the New York World. Its leader is Mr.. Burton OF
Ohio, and its program contemplates about forty days of speechmaklnG
or Mr. Burtons part. To help him out physically some of his associates
will always be at hand to read interminable documents which he will
incorporate in his remarks"
Discussion is the very life OF parliamentary government but this IS
not discussion. On the contrary, it is the stranguaion of true discus
sion and ofspar1iamentary government as we'll Mr.. Burton is not ar9u-
ing against the bill that he opposes lie is simply taking advantage of a
established by the senae in the beginning which. based upon the

Mr.. Burton is not expressing views. He is obstructng the majority.
He is not making an argument. He is preventing actor. If he can talk
for forty days, until the expiration OF this congress- his lung power and
not the few votes that he controls in favor of ship subsidies will for the
time being rule the United States. Some progress was made when it was
decreed that senators should be elected by the people. There will be
no complete reform OF the United States senate until the rule that en-
ab1es one man o talk congress to death shall have been abolished.

A BOOM FOR BOOTS

A condition OF wal is responsible for strange phenomenon that reach
beyond the theater of action. Some million men are suddenly in need Of
boots.
Not one in a dozen shoe stores in this country, probably carries
boots. They have not only been long out of the fashion, but non
existent except At. the ship chambers. Even for Workmanship the putne
has displaced them. Time wa when a dandy did not think his trousers
SCI we'll unless over bootegs.
A shoe manufacturer who makes boots n limited supply for military
men says that S0O000O pairs of army boots will be needed this year.
1t is estimated that the boot capacity OF the shoe factories in the
United States for export is 100000 pairs a day. 1t can be increased no
doubt. Thus opportunity seen to be kicking in the panels o. the door.
According to this authority the demand has had the curious effect of
increasing the price OF the coarse leather suitable for boots to twice that
OF fine shoe leather; although ordinarily this is reversed.

trenches
