SOLONS REBEL OYER
WILSON'S NEW PLAN
Democrats and Republicans
Criticise His Proposal to
Camp at Capitol.

ENFORCEMENT IS SEEN

Rebellion is brewing in the ranks
of Democrats as well as Republicans
in Congress in consequence of the an
nounced intention of President VIII
son to spend at least three days a
week at the Capitol until he can sue
coed in breaking the various dead
locks over his legislative program.
His smashing of presidents in this
respect is regarded as an unparalleled
instance of the extent to which the
executive branch of the Government
can 60 in efforts to force action by
the Congress, and there Is vast
amount of muttering in the cloak
rooms.
The first definite show of rebellion
came yesterday when the President,
after delivering his speech to the Sen
ate on peace terms, went to his room
in the Capitol and, sending for the
Western Democratic Senators. inter
.ested in the oil land leasing bill, he
told them they must not continue to
block the various conservation bills.
Told Compromise II Essential.
Practically all of these Senators are
in favor of the Phelan measure di-
recting the Government to respect the
rights of certain private prior claim
ants to oil properties in southern Cali
fornia. The Navy Department, which
desires these properties for the ex-
elusive use of the navy, has been
adamant in its opposition to the Phe-
Ian bill.
It IL stated on good authority that
Senator Phelan and others with him
frankly informed the President that
none OF his conservation measures
would be passed unless the. navy con-
scented to compromise.
It required some time for older
members of Congress of both parties
to get used to the idea of the Presi-
dent reading his messages to Con-
gress in person. Although the prac-
tice was followed originally by George
Washington, IL was discarded by
Thomas Jefferson as an unwarranted
assumption on the part of the Execu-
tive, and was never revived until Mr..
Wilson restored it Jeffersonian
Democrats of the old school in Con
gress found it necessary to shift their
ideas considerably.
Latest Plan II Criticized.
When, subsequently, the President
adopted the practice Of occasionally
visiting the Capitol for conferences
with party leaders, there was anoth'r
wave of resentment among the legis-
lators. Prior to that innovation tne
President OF the United States cor
fined his use of the presidents
room" at the Capitol to the closing
days of the session, when. for the sake
of time economy, he would go over to
sign bills in the closing days of SEES
sion.
The latest plan OF Mr.. wilson, that
Of establishing himself at the Capitol
for days at a time, has created vide
spread criticism. According to White
House officials he means to hold his
office hours there every Monday,
Wednesday and Thursday afternoon.

GRAYSON FAVORED

Informal Figures Show That
His Chances for Confirma-

Informal canvasses of the Senate

a majority of the Senators will vote

A vigorous fight will be made and
there Is no telling when the nominal

Democrats are expected to vote
against confirmation and all but two
of the Republicans. This, however,
will not be sufficient to defeat con-
firmation. One canvass shows fifty
one Democrats and two Republicans,
or at total of fifty-three for confir-
nation and thirty-nine Republicans

An IIIustrious Precedent.

At the beginning of the war the
French soldiers invariably wore mus
taches. It evidently pleased the old
commandant, for he remarked on sew
eral occasions about the appearance
of his men.
One day a soldier appeared before
the astonished commandant with no
mustache. He had shaved 1t. The
officer was exasperated. He called
the man before him and demanded to
know where his mustache was. He
was met with the reply that the sol
der had become tired-ef the mus
tache and had shaved 1t.

mandant. did you ever hear of good
French soldier without mustache?"
Eyes, sir" replied the man in the
ranks.
"Who?" demanded the commandant.
Napoleon" came the reply.
And the commandant wilted.

1t Wasn't News to Them,

A young man recently called on the
Rev. II. A. Kirk of Muncie, and, after
introducing himself, shyly remarked
that he was going to be married.
Would the minister perform the cere-
mony on certain evening Of the next
week? The minister would.
Just before leaving the visitor as
sumed an embarrassed look, explain
ing that he had ridden into the city
on a bicycle from the country, that he
had broken the sprocket chain, and
that he had neglected to put any
money in his pocket when he left
home. Would the minister lend him
50 cents to have it repaired so that he
could ride home? Certainly, the min
lister would.
The evening of the expected mar
riage arrived, but no bridegroom and
bride. Neither did they come the
next evening nor any other evening.
The Rev. Mr.. Kirk concluded he had
been SWindled. He told the story at
meeting of Muncie ministers. They
smiled. They also had given up 80
cents to the young man who was to
be married.-Indianapo News.

. might OFFEND HIS FOLKS"
Militia coIoneI's Reason for Ordering
Release Of Prisoner Amazes OFF,
Ger Of Regulars.

1t is generally believed that the old
differences between the regulars and
the National Guard have been wiped
out long ago, and that the hot and
dusty summer weeks in maneuver
camps have made the National Guards
man the equal Of the regular army
man. There may be q Bot of truth in
this assumption, too, but there is one
lieutenant in the regular army who
will never believe that the militia will
amount to q row of beans until Off
cered by regulars, says writer On mil
itary affairs.
This is partly accounted for by his
experience on the Mexican border
few months ago. There had been con.
siderable rowdyism on the part of en-
listed men begging and stealing rides
to and from town on the running
boards OF automobiles, and orders had
gone forth to stop the nuisance. Cone
SeQuently, when one large and pugna.
ciOuS militiaman was arrested by the
guard for disObeying the order, this
lieutenant of whom l write ordered the
tent. The lieutenant happened to be
officer of the day and in charge of the
situation. The militiaman ShOweu
fight, so the lieutenant told the guard
to sit on the mans neck, if necessary.
1t was just q detail in the day.:
work. But later on there came march
ing over to the lieutenant full fledged
colonel commanding the pugnacious
militiaman'S regiment.

have Jim Dumps arrested here for hop
ping on an automobile running board
Yes, sir" replied the lieutenant.
"Well, now" the colonel explained,
you just let him go. His folks and
mine are pretty thick, aud his being
arrested might make it kinder hard
for me at home"
And the utterly amazed lieutenant
had to obey the orders of q colonel.

IT'S AN EARLY MORNING JOB
Raid on Destructive Garden Pests at

morning in his young garden and be-

beetles, potato bugs, and such slugs
and cut and wire worms as are In

and drop them in a deep can, will do
more good than poison could do in
three days, says writer in the Amer

Pour boiling hot water into the tin
holding these insects to make sure
they are killed. Go the rounds every
morning. Do not wait until after
school, or late in the day, because they
have Toasted and crawled away to
sleep and rest-most Of them. Do not
try to pick them Mt noon because they
hide underground or behind leaves to
get out of the hot sun. But bright
and early in the morning they come
out with the sparkling dew to get
busy and eat the good things you
have planted. Get up an hour earlier
three mornings a week just to do
this. and the result will repay you ten
times over when your garden begins
to supply you with peas and beans and
cucumbers and lettuce and radishes
and many other delicacies.
