Strong-Arm Legislation.

An old device in time of business con-
gestion has been adopted by the Sen
ate majority. The daily sessions, begin
ming Thursday, are to be heightened
Eleven hours will be the stint. Senators
must appear at II o'clock forenoon, pre-
pared to remain until 10 at night. A
long watch.
This will not make for quality in leg
islation, and it may not make even for
quantity. 1t provides simply test of
physical strength. 1t is a sort of club,
which will be lowered if senators are
good and let measures pass rapidly.
Speed should not control. Much of
the business in hand is too important
to lie railroaded to the President On
the contrary, it should be well consid-
cred. The revenue question and the
railroad question alone merit the fullest
examination. In the former case the
measure is of makeshift sort; and in
the latter case the effort is to repair a
blunder committed under a speeding
up process at the last session. Another
speeding-up process might result i'll an
other blunder.
Why should not the Senate meet the
emergency by cutting down the legis-
lative card? 1t is much too long, and
was made so against the advice of ex-
perienced legislators. Before the ses-
sion began the situation was canvassed
and the limitations shown. Speaker
Clark led in pointing out the long rou-
tine that should receive attention and
the short time allowed by law for the
work. Nevertheless, the program which
has resulted in congestion was prepared,
and now the appeal is to physical en-
durance. Pointing to the clock, the
leadership admonishes the Senate that
its task must be completed by 4, or it
will be kept in-caHed back in extra
session.
The power behind the admonition is
the President, and he has taken quar-
tiers in the Capitol building in order to
see that there is no loafng. The step
is unprecedented, and there is undis-
guised curiosity in and out of the Sen
ate as to the effect. Some quiet resent
ment is felt, and this may show as time
passes.
OF course, the President is within his
rights. The CapitoI is omen To all and
room is set aside for the occupant of
the White House. Hitherto, however,
that room has never been used except
in the closing hours of Congress when
the executive was hurried with the lat
est bills passed. But Mr.. Wilson will
make it headquarters, and direct from
there the work of Congress for the re-
mainder of the session.

Midwinter Military Operations.

Notwithstanding the intensely severe
weather in both France and Russia.
fighting is continuing vigorously at sew
eral points along western and eastern
fronts. The Russians have, in fact, been
busy for several weeks in the Riga sec
tor, first pressing the German lines back
considerable distance and then losing
the ground regained in German counter
attacks. Down in Rumania German
forces, which have been successful for
Il long period, were assaulted and driven
back on a two-mile front within the
past few hours. and Petrograd also re-
ports and Berlin admits Russian adj
vances in Bukowina Meanwhile at Yer
dun, where the Germans have lately
gained some ground in u series of as
saults, the French have assumed the Of
fensiye, while the British were max
ing two attacks in Picardy, taking
trenches and prisoners. This British
activity is believed to have been due
to desire to relieve the German pres
sure at Verdun, where lately the French
have been under heavy attacks.
None of these operations can be rated
as indicative of continued activity on a
large scale. Rather are the movements
to be rated as demonstrations for po-

litical effect. It is true that the Ger
man attack at Verdun last year began
about the Goth Of February and was con-
tinued without interruption for four
months. So that an aggressive opera
ton Of large proportions might possibly
develop as the result of any one of these
apparently sporadic raids or assaults.
Of course, the plans of the respective
commanders are kept secret and every
device is adopted to confuse the judg-
ment of the opposition. If it is the design
of the German high command to launch
a heavy offensive in the west this spring
it would be strategy to suggest by pre-
liminary operations an intention to
strike at far different point than that
selected for the great assault. A spring
offensive by the allies is looked for as
virtually essential to the entente plans
of campaign, but there is no possible
way of guessing from these midwinter
operations where it will strike.

Pershing's Return.

| The American cxpeditionary force
which was sent into Mexico several
months ago is now on its way north I'M
der orders from the War Department
| to return to the United States. This
| force was sent across the border under
orders to get Villa" after the raid on
! Columbus, \. NJ, in which number of
| Americans were killed and much prop
erty was destroyed. A rapid march car
ried the American troops considerable
distance into Mexico, and there was
| some fighting, Villa himself being en-
gagged in one combat in which it was
stated he was desperately wounded. His
band was scattered and for time it
looked as though the purpose of the e1
petition would be fulfilled. But the
Carranza government interposed objec-
tons to further progress and stipula-
tons we're made that the American
troops should not move east, south or
west, which left only a northward or
retrograde movement possible. Conse-
quently- Gen. Pershing's forces merely
camped out for months, accomplishing
| nothing, costing the United States heav-
lily and serving by its presence to irri-
tate the Mexican government and peo-
pie. Eventually the withdrawal of this
column was demanded by Carranza, and
this demand was submitted to commits
sion of American and Mexican repre-
sentatives, who finally framed a protocol
providing for the withdrawal of the col
umn on certain conditions. This proto-
col was rejected by the Carranza gov
eminent and the conference closed with
out results. Tho troops are now being
withdrawn and the principal desire Of
the Carranza government is accom-
plished.
Whether or not it was mistake, the
punitive expedition under Gen. Per-
shing's command was failure. Yet its
failure is in no wise to be attributed to
the fault Of its commander or its per-
sonne1. The troops who went into Mex
leo did the best they could under the
circumstances, hampered as they were
by restrictive orders, surrounded by
enemies, scores Of miles away from base,
dependent upon motor lines of commu-
nieations for supplies.
The United States did not get Villa"
1t has not added to its prestige by the
dispatch of the Pershing expedition and
its ultimate withdrawal without results.
Possibly the presence of American
troops in northern Mexico somewhat
improved the situation there, though re-
ports did not indicate any great better.
| ment Of conditions. The Mexican situa-
ton remains today as it was when Per
shing crossed the Rio Grande, deplorably
confused and dangerous.

The Railroad Question.

This is from news story printed
Saturday:
president Wilson is not expected to
accept without some modification the
proposal by the railroad brotherhood
heads that mixed commission of rail
road employers and employees be created
to investigate disputes as substitute
for the Presidents Recommendation
that strikes or lockouts be prohibited
pending an investigation by a govern
mcnt body. In conference with the
President today, Representative Adam
son took the position that the commits
sion proposed by the brotherhoods
would be useless unless it included a
representative of the public
Mr.. Adamson is entirely right. Not
only is the public Gin on this" but its
interests are greater than those of
either the railroads or their employees.
The railroads, if forced to it, could ar
range for new hours of work, and find
the money for higher wages. Likewise
could the brotherhoods, now well paid
aud in no danger of starvation or even
uncomfortable skimping, subsist for 4
while longer on their present scale of
earnings. But throw the railroad
transportation out of plumb seriously,
or. worse, paralyze it even for brief
period, and the responsible party would
inhiet n heavy loss ON the whole coun-
try. Everybody, including the authors
of the calamity. would suffer

Political and Social Science held in

The Handbook Raid.

Evidently from the results of Satur-
days raid conducted by the police in
Injunction with the Department of
| Justice the handbook business has lately
been thriving in Washington. Nineteen
people were arrested on information OBJ
| tanned by the departments agents, in
dicating that it has been recently easy
to place bets on distant horse races,
notwithstanding the law which forbids
that form of gambling. The persistence
with which this game is played in the
face of the penalties provided by the
statute plainly shows that the profits of
handbook making are large Else men
would not risk fines and Imprisonment
in prosecuting it. Apparently the hand
book men have grown somewhat holder
of late, or they would not have been so
promiscuous in their dealings as to af-
ford evidence sufficing to land nearly
score in the police net in single
afternoons raiding. These cases should
be prosecuted with vigor The game is
a most pernicious one, causing heavy
losses to people who can i'll afford them.
1t breeds a demoralizing habit and is
undoubtedly the cause of much law
breaking beyond the Illegal gambling
itself. If those who were caught in Sat
urday's raid are proved guilty they
should be given heavy penalties as a
demonstration that the statute means
what it says.

inconvenience resulted, and added that
we do not agree that there is any
difference in the principle that gives
one man the right to leave the service
of his employer and any number of
men equal right to leave if they so de-
sire"
"Public Inconvenience" does not ex-
press the matter at all. Public disaster
does; and no man or set of men would
be justified in any course subjecting
the public to widespread injury. What
in one man might be the mere exercise
of right might in the concerted action
of four hundred thousand men be little
less than the commission of great
crime
Progress is being made toward a set
Element of this controversy, and the
most promising feature of it is the gem
eral appreciation now Of the fact that
there are three, not two, parties in in
terest. The railroads are within their
rights in looking out for their inter
ests, and the brotherhoods have equal
justification in looking out for theirs.
But it is much palmer now than last
September that the interests of all the
people are involved, and must be con-
suited. The railroads are public service
corporations and their employees Ameri-
can citizens, and for those reasons both
sides in whatever they do should, or
be required to, consider the public well
fare. A continent-wide strike would en-
