by fraud.
 Judge Sloan introduced many au
 critics for perusal by the court and 1; hong them was one by the supreme ca' t of the territory in which it was laid down as the law that the object of elections was to secure an expression 9f the will of the voters and that no irregularity could prevent that express sion unless it was of such a character as to change the result of the election Our statutes, said Judge Sloan, are silent as to the punishment for such irreSularities as had been alleged in this case while in other states where they are punishable they had not been held to inyalidate elections In con- clrsion, Judge Sloan declared that Snowflake could not be thrown out without great injustice to thevoters of that precinct.
 Mir. Ives followed in a brief address introducing the testimony of one wit ness whom he had forgotten in his for mer review. William Ramsey. a demo- crat who had been appointed a mem Der of the election board at Snowflake but who on his arrival at the polling place. had been displaced in favor of Mir. Stratton.
 The argument for the contestant was closed in an impassioned speech by MT. Struckmeyer who attacked the authori- ties introduced by Messrs Sloan and Bullard as incomplete.
 No court proceeding in recent years has attracted the aeep interest this phase of the governorship contest has occasioned. All last night the tele- phones of this office were kept ringing by residents Of the town and the coun- try, inquiring what mad happened to Snowflake

The Nuisance Abated.

Police Supt. Pullman's action yester-
day in ordering the arrest Of the women
who persist in picketing the White
House in the name of suffrage is JUS
titled by every consideration Of public
order and safety. The determined eff
forts Of these notoriety seekers have
become a scandalous menace. They
have provoked riots at the very gates
Of the presidential mansion, angering
the people to the point Of taking the
law into their own hands. The COM
promise of the police taking away the
offending banners did not suffice to stop
the nuisance itself. The only remedy
left was to stop the display of the ban
ners, and this could only be accomplished
by arresting those who, in the face of
formal warning, continued to present
themselves at the gates of the White
House. The court has already held that
this action is contrary to law and ad
minis,ered punishment, which has been
modified by executive pardon. 1t mat
terS not now whether the same clemency
will be extended to the fresh offenders.
The nuisance is to be abated by arrests
as often as it is repeated.
Martyrdom Will not gain recruits to
this cause beyond certain point. The
job has been undertaken by the police,
and it must be carried through, how
ever many women offer themselves for
this humiliation and inconvenience.
Meanwhile the public should remain
calm. There should be no interference
with the work of the police and no
anticipation of their action. No more
rowdyism, no more curiosity seeking
crowds, no more disorder at the White
House gates. The community is greatly
relieved at the prospect of peace and
freedom from the shameful spectacle of
daily defiance of the law under the very
shadow Of the Presidents house.

Mr.. Fitzgerald to Stay.

Congratulations to. Representative
Fitzgerald. He was not nominated for
controller in New York, and SO will re-
main in the House. His position there
is leading one, and his opportunities
for usefulness will be greater, begin
ming in December, than ever before.
Second in importance only to the ways
and means committee is the appropria-
tions committee; and sometimes it is
the more important of the two. The
supremacy of the ways and means COM
mittee is manifested in years when reve-
nue. problems are in hand. But at every
regular session Of every Congress the
appropriations committee must appor-
ton the money for the support of the
government, and thus has great prob
lens before it all the time.
As the result of the war, the govern
ment's needs have mounted high, and
may mount higher. Enormous sums are
to be apportioned, both for old and for
new needs. The appropriations commit
| tee of the House will have its hands
full to overlooking while the war lasts.
| Niggardliness at this time is, of course,
utterly out of the question. 1t is not
proposed by anybody. but if proposed
would be instantly rejected. There is
general appreciation of the country's
new obligations, and as general desire
and purpose to meet them.
At the same time, and because of
the greater sums necessary, there is
recognition of the fact that the money
should be apportioned with care, giving
to every department Of the government,
since all are in action, whatever, and
no more than, the emergency calls for.

Congress.

| Again it may be said with propriety,
never mind about adjournment. Con-
gress is not obliged to adjourn. No time
! limit runs against an extra session. Such
session is never called except to meet
an emergency, and when so called it
should continue while the emergency
continues. The proposition is SO plain
it needs no argument.
We all know why the present session
was called. Not only was there an emer-
gency, but it was such an emergency as
the country had never before faced.
There was pressing work that Congress
alone could perform. Hence the Presi-
dents proclamation.
Since assembling, Congress has done
much. Among the matters disposed Of
are some as important as any ever han
died by a national legislature. And they
relate to questions never before pre-
scented to a national legislature.
But the card has by no means been
completed. On the contrary, it has been
heightened since the session began, and
is still being heightened. The revenue
question has grown in size, and is Of a
character requiring prompt service.
More money is required than earlier es-
Inmates took into account; and it is the
duty of Congress to fill Uncle Sans
purse.
As the emergency continues, Congress
should remain in session to meet it
while it continues. New features must
be dealt with as they develop; and they
are constantly developing.
For these reasons adjournment should
not figure in any calculations in or out
Of Congress. The members of that body
are public servants at the public's COM
mand. They have sought their places,
and value them. They have, of course,
the country's interests first at heart
Their personal interests and comfort are
subsidiary.
As no time limit is fixed by law, none

sion under impotence within, or from
pressure without, Congress. There
should be neither delay nor undue haste
in the shaping of measures. We want
to go ahead as rapidly as possible But
the watchword should be, speed. with
safety. We should watch our steps be-
cause We are treading unfamiliar paths,
and a misstep might cost US heavily.
Congress in session will probably con-
tinue to mean Congress in action; and
that there is much more action for Con-
gress to take is easily ascertainable from
a glance at what remains to be done in
connection with present war require
ments.

last.
For such work experience is invalu-
able. The men who sit at a committee
table and examine and pass upon de-
partmental estimates should have full
knowledge Of affairs, as we'll as strong
disposition to do the right and liberal
thing by the country. And 1t is cause
for much qualification that this work
by the present House will be performed
by men entirely competent for it, and
led by one who has served on the ap-
preparations committee both on the mi
nority and the majority side, and, there
fore, is familiar with the ropes.

Germany Buying Disloyalty.

Two men were convicted yesterday
in southwestern Virginia on q charge of
recruiting men to destroy arms and am
munition of the United States, and SEN
fenced to serve five years in prison.
In statement to the court the prisoners
said that three men, strangers to the
community, induced them to arm and
organize the mountaineers on the prom
Use of large sum Of money. The be-
lief is expressed that these strangers
were German agents. 1t is entirely
credible. That German money has been
used in this country lavishly in the Or
ganization and promotion of plots to
destroy plants and to hamper the war
work, first Of the allied powers before
this country broke with Germany and
then of the United States when it en-
tered the conflict, is we'll established. 1t
is Germany's way of doing business.
The other day Elihu Root in New York
told of the flood Of German money that
poured over the border Immediately
after the Russian revolution to corrupt
the troops and the peasants and the Off
cials. German money had been spent
extravagantly in Russia early in the
war in the purchase Of the influence
of the highest government Office. Ger
many believes that anybody can be
bribed and bought, even for treason,
and it would be indeed astonishing if
in this great crisis of her career she
did not spend fortunes here to check the
American war work in every way pos
sible
During the anxious months of protests
and negotiation with Berlin on the SUBJ
ject of the submarine sinkings and vio-
lation of American rights at sea it was
often said that Germany fully expected
America to keep out of the war because
of the fear of an uprising in this coun-
try of the COMMUNICATIONS against
the national government The futility
OF this expectation has been fully DEM
onstrated. The great body of the Ger
man-Americans are loyal to the United
States Germany has found that she
cannot depend, for a serious deterrent
American reaction, upon her former ma
tionals and their descendants in the
United States. So she must buy dis
loyalty here, and that she is buying it is
indicated by such cases as this in Vir-
ginia and by the pernicious activity of
the !. W. W. in promoting strikes.
Every American workingman should
bear in mind distinctly the fact that
German agents are seeking to buy dis
loyalty here. The consequences of this
activity is that any strike plan comes
legitimately under the suspicion of be-
ing promoted by German influence and
cash. The American unionists cannot
afford at this critical juneture to threat
en- the government with strikes at plants
upon which the United States depends
for the speedy production Of war ma
terials. No true American wants to in
cur the suspicion of having been bought
by Germany to betray his country.

The Navy.

Since his retirement from Congress
Capt. Richmond P. Hobson has figured
but little in the news. But he has not
lost interest in public questions, and
has not been idle. A favorite as a lee
turer, he has been on the platform ad-
dressing audiences ON topics with which
his name is associated.
One of these topics is the Navy. A
graduate 81 Annapolis, and one of the
heroes on the water of the Spanish war,
Capt. Hobson knows his subject well,
and discusses it with information and
entertainingly. He is now discussing it
on his travels, and reports say his re-
marks are vigorously applauded wher-
ever delivered.
This is a sentence from a recent ad-
dress before a chautauqua audience A:
