THE FILlBuSTER.

Let 1t never be said that the sixty fourth congress refuse to support the president of the United States n req sonable measures for the protection of the honor and the preservation of the vital interests of the nation.
 A half dozen senators in a dis graceful, causeless f1libuster presented a vote on the question of supporting the president. The names of these gentlemen are:
 William J. Stone. Robert M. La Toilette, Asle J. Gronna, Albert B. Cummins. John D. Works.
 These gentlemen, through their abuse of parliamentary privileges, managed 10 talk congress inactive until noon, March 4, when it expired by constitutional limitation.
 The senate was ia favor of passing the resolution authorizing the presi- dent to equip merchant vessels with defensive armament and to use other instrumentahties for the protection of American lives and property while engaged in legitimate travel in the recognized ocean commerce routes. When the evil design of Stone and La Toilette became known, seventy members of the senate went on record by signing a manifesto in- informing the country of their will ingness and wish to uphold the presi- dent. These included forty-sx of the fifty six democrats and thirty of the forty repubhcans-an overwhelming majority of both parties ia the senate
 The defeat of the neutrality resolu- ton represents a victory for vicious obstructionists. It demonstrates once more that the will of the majority of the congress, representing as 1t may the will of the nation, may be defefated by one or two Individuals, who place more value on their per- than on the judgment of the major ty. Upon the minds of these fili- bustering senators the fact that the lower house had voted to stand by the president by the majority of 400 to 13 had no effect.
 The motives for the filfibus.er are

free tolls provision in the Panama
 canal act. They are exercising the right of free citizens in free coun- try to bring to bear what influence they can on the conduct of their gov ernment.
 Some radicals on the pacifist side have some radicals on the militarist
 side. 1t is not good Americanism
 to be intolerant of these radicals. There Is an easily recognizable radi- cal type of mind, and at times like |, these it always leads its possessor to one extreme or another. General ly the extremes cancel each other, and 1t is the middle way that is followed What is good in an extreme view will prevail soon or later, anyway. despite opposition; what is bad is likely to be nourished by opposition and to dissipate itself If given free vent. To let pacifists and militarists thresh things out by free talk is better than letting the pacifists suppress the mill itai1sts by force or the militarists suppress the pacifists by force. As for the pro- Germans they cannot do any harm if they merely talk, and if they break laws there are policemen enough to arrest them.-San Francis oc Bulletin.

not important, but they are generally known. Senator Stone was one of the political managers of the admin istration who just prior to the elec-
 sioa last November was discovered in New York soliciting the support or the publishers of German-American i ican leaders. He was chairman of the 1 foreign relations committee and as such was the administrators leader in all projects in international af- fairs submitted to or coming under the notice of congress-. His deser- | ton of the president at the last min ute is puzzling. AIr. La Follette's pro-alien sympathies have long
 ceased to be a secret. The bitter
 partisan speech of Senator Works de- l livered in the senate month ago
 was a warning to the country of the course he would pursue when the question. of asserting the voice of the 1 nation in behalf of the hyes of it's citizens was called His participa-
 ton in the flibuster was the last act
 of his official career.
 The effect of the work Of the fih-
 buster upon the American people will
 not be srious. They know the power ] of two or three individuals 10 talk an important legislative project to death, and they know the character and the motives of the men who joined in
 the latest discreditab,e act of th1s practice. But it will hurt the inter- ests of the United States wi.h for eign nations. The people of Europe
 do not understand that a filihustcr of
 an insigaifcfant minority may play
 with the fate of a nation
 It will injure immeasurably the case of the president with Germany. It will be retailed to the German people that 1 congress refused to support the presi- dent in arming merchant ships. h just so far as the deeds of Stone, La
 Toilette and their small company have
 taken force from the presidents words and withheld it from his hands they
 have been erti-Ameriea1. If they have done something to cause the German government and people to
 miss any 0: the significance of the
 presldens; notice that the rgh's of
 our citizens must be respected, they have increased the danger of actual
 war; for they will have made it ne- cessary to resort to means that can
 not be mistaken.
 It will be well for all nations to
 know that it is the sentiment of the
 great majority of the members of
 congress and of the people that no
 nation can presume to bar Aper1can citizens and American commerce from
 any part of the hgih seas by threats and deeds of indiscriminate murder

WAR DEPARTMENT
ENDS WACO RIOT
Twenty Members of Negro In
fantry Regiment Held
for the Crime.

WACO, Texas, July 30.-Following
inspector general of the southern de-
partment, L. S. A., steps were insti-
tuted by army officers for conducting
"A general investigation of the several
clashes late last night between police
officers and riotOus negro troopers Of
the Twenty Fourth United States in
fantry. Colonel Cress will forward
his report of the affair TO the war de-
partment at Washington.
With the taking into custody by
military officers of the negroes who
took part in the riots last night quiet
prevails In Waco tonight.
1t is said that the SIX negroes cap
tured by the searching expedition
early this morning Will be tried for
attempted murder before military
court-martial.
Military officers have effected an
order barring negro troopers from en-
tering the city districts without
military pass. This step is taken to
avoid the possibility of a recurrence of
rioting between black soldiers and
citizens.
The trouble last night occurred
when members of the negro troop of
the Twenty Fourth United States in
fantry tore down "A sign in restau-
rant and ordered the white proprietor
not to put it up again. Another version
is that the rebellious troopers refused
to allow white pedestrians to pass in
front of n negro picture show. 1t was
then that the police were called out to
clear the sidewalks.
a number of shots were fired by
squad of officers when the twenty
riotous negroes showed signs of Civ
ing fight. The negroes then fled, pur-
sued by policemen, reinforced by in
fantrymen from Camp Macarthur.
Excitement ended this morning when
It was officially announced that all of
the twenty rebelious ones had been
taken into custody by the military
authorities.
