URGES ECONOMY
ON LEGISLATURE
Committee Recommends
Drastic Measures on Law
makers at State Capital.

Austin. Tex, Jan. SIN the event
the legislature adopts the recommen-
datons OF the legislative investigat-
ing committee. as to the Legislative
department" OF the state government.
there viii be number OF radical
changes from the system or lack Of
system which has heretofore pre-
vailed. The committee finds a lack
Of proper system Of bookkeeping. the
printing Of more journals than are
used. the payment Of excessive prices
for material and the employment in
the senate OF a mailing clerk and as
siStanrs and nOtarial clerk and as
sistant that are not deemed ueces-
sary." The committee accordingly
recommends:

That the books be kept in each
house. showing the amount OF stamps
and supplies purchased and the
amount disbursed and to whom dis
THAT no stamps be disbursed ex-
cepr TO members and officers OF the
two houses
That not exceeding 1000 or 1900
journals be printed in the senate, and
not exceeding 1900 in the house. IN
less 1t develops that more are needed.
That so copies Of each days jour
nal be delivered to the state library.
That the sergeant at arms Of each
house be careful in buying supplies
to order only such as are included in
the state contract.
That the positions OF mailing clerk
and the several assistants and OF no
tarial clerk in the senate be dis
pensed with. This will result in a
saving to the senate Of $500 a month.
and Il is thought that the other rec
concentrations will result in mate
rial saving TO the state"
II is generally conceded that the
adoption OF these recommendation
would result in a material saving Of
states money by the law makers. but

SENATE AND THE LEAGUE

| (From South Bend Tribune
Those who find themselves growing
| impatient at indications of the inten-
tion of Republican leaders in the
senate to challenge ratification of sec
tions one and two of the peace treaty.
the league of nations sections, should
RENE mber that this plan to involve
the United States in Permanent Euro
pean relations originated with Mr..
Wilson and that the burden of proof of
it's desirability rests with him. The
senate would be recreant if it accepted
the covenant for the people, pledging
all the people to support of a scheme
that is but vaguely understood by
many of them, without conside ration.
Critics of the Republicans are nnd
just now of deploring a disposition to
make the league a party issue. VIII
they please explain how it could be
anything but party issue? The no.
torious absence of courage and original
thought among the Democratic MEM
bers has emphasized the responsibility
of the Republicans in upholding proved
traditional policies until proposed sub
stitutes are shown to be practical and
above all. safe. They are willing to
ilch iiit SluiS VI SuPPOt VI
wisconsin to perform their colstitu-
tional office properly.
Fears that delay of ratification in the
senate will affect reconstruction and
prove an encouragement to Germany
are without basis. They are like jack
o-lanterns showed over fences by boys.
Nobody need be alarmed by them. 1t
is evident that our associate nations |
have seen to it that so far as the /
fulfillmeRt of peace conditions
is concerned action by the senate on /
the league pact will not be an obstacle. I
Germany must sign and begin to pay
the penalty for her sins. We may still
examine the league provisions at
leisure.
To go along and assent to the con-
-ention that the league is a panacea
'or the worlds ills is easy. That
'ourse suits lazy people and those who
ack courage. But to demand that the
lecision be made by the constitutional,
igency in the free exc rcise of its pow
RS. and not simply as a signature to a
heck drawn on the United States by
he president, requires the industry to
cquire knowledge and the courage to
phold convictions. Republican sena-
ors who are organizing for restora-
ion of the dignity and responsibility
( the higher chamber are benefactors.

The peace conference at Paris placed
its veto upon this sort of democracy
Emerging from it we find now excuses

President Wilson did much to equalize
all men and nations regardless OF their

MUST BE BAD-EVEN J. n A N
ADMITS 1T

(Clarksburg (W. Va-) Telegram)
During the closing days of the last
Congress. one of the most ardent and
yociferous supporters of the Wilson
policies. in fact, of everything and
anything the administration did or
contemplated, was United States Sen
ator James Hamilton Lewis, OF Illinois,
Democratic whip" in the Senate.
Lewis could be expected, at the drop Of
hat to jump up and talk his pink
countenance into considerably deeper
pink in extolling the alleged virtues of
the national administrator. And. of
course, he said he was uttering the
sentiments of the people.
But Mr. Lewis,-he is no longer
United States senator BY. virtue of the
failure of his own people TO indorse
his praises of the administratioa-now
finds that the people have been and
are thinking entirely different from
what he supposed. He has just re-
turned to Chicago from an extended
western trip to settle down and resume
his law practice and has given express
sion to his painful surprise at the
sentiment of the people throughout the
Pacific coast and mounts n states
against eerything going on at Wash
ington."
Senator Lewis also declared that
the people of the West demand that
the soldiers be brought bael. at cnce
that they are emphatically, against the
plan of sending soldiers into Siberia,
that they are opposed to European al
liances and that they demand that the
United States look nearer home for at
tention to trouble by taking control OF
Mexican affairs and by force stopping (
the continued outrages on Americans |
and their property.
These are sentiments that may not
be snired at by those still in the .
saddle at Washington. It shows, as
the Telegram has for some time been /
pointing out. that the people Of the
including millions of Demo-
Gratis. are dissatisfied and disgusted
with the high handed. autocratic, ex-
discriminatory and waste
ful manner in which the national gov
srnmeat has lately been managed. And
here is no mistaking the plain fact
