McARrHUR TAKES The LEAD.

II believe in government by law and
not by men," declares Congressman
G. N. Macarthur of Oregon. Acting
upon that principle he introduced, on
the first day of the session, bill to pro-
vide an additional session of Congress
on the fifth. day of March, 1921, and bi.
ennially thereafter. There will be few
measures considered by the present
Congress that will represent a longer
step in the direction of return to po-
pular government in this country than
the change proposed by Representative
Macarthur.
In the first place it takes from the
President the power that he nov possess
ses to run the government as he chooses
from the 4th OF March in every odd
numbered year until the 1st Monday in
December following, period of nine
months. Not often has this power been
abused, but since Mr.. Wilson has been
in the White House the country has
been awakened to the potential danger
of turning over to one man the authorl-
ty of an autocrat, with the duly elected
representatives of the people unable to
put check upon his actions.
Not only will the verdict of the voters
find expression in legislation nine months
earlier than heretofore, but the tremen-
dous congestion in the socalled short
session of congress Immediately pre-
ceeding adjournment will be obvlated.
Heretofore it has been absolutely neces-
sary to enact all the big money supply
bills before adjournment on March 4th
so that funds will be available to run
the government after the expiration of
the fiscal year on June 30th. The re-
suit has been that in the closing dayscof
congress bills appropriating hundreds
of millions of dollars have been jammed
through with no opportunity for ade-
quate discussion. II the Macarthur
bill becomes law such measures can
be given close scrutiny and subjected
to searching debate before receiving
congressional approval.
Not only does Mr.. McArthur's bill
strip from the President much of the
power that now gives him authority
equal to that of any king, but it turns
that power back to the people from
whom it came, and permits them,
through their representatives, to assume
the relns of legislation nine months
earlier than is now possible except at
the will Of the President. Under the
present system there elapses an interval
of thirteen months between election Of
new Congress in November and the
time they are regularly convened under
the law in December Of the following
year. Mr.. McArthur's measure will cut
that period to four months.
Mr.. McArthur's bill is the first step
IN the program Of the Republicans to
take from the Executive the autocratic
war power with which he was clothed
in the last congress, and to reserve to

Mr.. and Mrs. A. F. Baul,g of Cava

hospital in Grand Forks for treatment,
is greatly improved in health and is
expected home, in short time.
According to the daily papers, Lieut..

Mrs. Ireland and daughter, Velma. of

passing, rendered assistance.

been a serious accident. The heavy
blouse he wore was caught by the gov

was whirled over three times, when his
foot caught. and, as the engine had not
got into full swing yet, he was able to
hold it until he extrlcated himself. His
overalls and blouse were torn from him
and be received several severe bruises
about the head and body. Had he not
been such powerful man. with strength
to hold the engine, the accident would
have, no doubt, proved fatal.

Created Cooperation

1t has been fun selling the stamps,
they say in the stores. And it has been
the only patriotic outlet of many of
the persons who work there. Back in
the rooms where employees congregate
conversation has centred around the
achievements of individuals, until the
war savings stamp campaign has proved
a wonderful socializing influence. No
greater cooperative effort than this one
has ever been known in department
store history, the managers and owners
say, and war savings stamps will con-
tinue to be sold as long as the govern
ment desires.
In all about 800 department and re-
tan stores took part in the campaign
and placed their organizations at the
service of the War Savings Stamps
Committee. Here i how some Of the
individual stores stood in the selling:

SHOPS AND THINGS

CST as if they had been picked in
~ an old-fashoned garden are the
English prints which have been intro
Guced this season as the freshest of
cotton goods novelties. Take one look
at them, shut your eyes, and at once
is conjured up a walledin sunny space,
pied with homely blooms and heavy
with summer afternoon scents There
would be no finding an English maiden
if she were to don a dress made of
these gay fabrics and sally forth to
the flower beds, so like they are to
the phloX and the hollyhocks, the Gin
namon pinks and sweet lavender.
The way customers are Aocking
about The counter at James McCutcheon
& Co., where the English prints are
making their first appearance, ind-

garden charm has been caught and

Of brown and black and gold that is

It's very American, this liking for
gay colors. they say at McCutcheon' g.
In England, year in and year out, the
solid colors. blues and bNowns and
blacks, locked sometimes with a
brighter tint, hold ste2dy place in the
estimation Of the shoppers. But here
the eye wants something more vivid.
50 the selfsame designs are used, but
the dye pots in which the material
destined for this country goes are rain
bow hued.
As the newcomers in the field Of
spring cottons the English prints have
had to, perform all sorts of tricks to
prove their right of entry. For if
ever there was q riot anywhere it is
among the cottons this year. Every
one, even the most straggly stragglcr,
is wanting to celebrate peace with
gayer clothes, and the cottons have
taken it upon themselves to run the
gamut Of color and design) However,
there seems to be no end of what they
can do trim boudoir, turn into a
hat, make ur into the major portion
