legislators Under Orders.

The revelation that the FIVE Socialist
members Of the New York Legislature
who have been denied theft seats and
are now under rigid investigation had
been pledged in advance to vote IN accord
ance with the orders Of their party appears
to have made quite sensation In some
political quarters But why?
Legislators voting under orders from
political headquarters, or even at the
dictation OF q political boss, have long
been a familiar element of very many
legislative sessions in this country. 1t is a
spectacle that has been on view at
Dover, our State capital, almost regularly
for score or more of years. Generally,
the orders came from Republican head
quarters, but occasionally there were
evidences of like submission to orders
by Democratic members.
If only this charge can be maintained
against the Socialist members of the
New York Assembly, their titles will be
unclouded. No doubt majority Of those
who are challenging them are under
similar subjection to party rule.

BODILY MECHANICS.

According to report OF the physical
examinations of first-year men at Harvard
so per cent required training in BODILY
mechanics" upon their admission to the
college. Fewer than one per cent were
rated as having good mechanical use
of the body" the rest were faulty to some
degree, standing, walking or sitting, and
more than one-third were put down as
being very bad examples.
This part of the examination does moi
relate to physical defects in the ordinary
sense, organic or functional troubles, as
ailments of the heart, lungs, eyes, throat
or ears 1t is strictly concerned with
determining how well the student carries
himself" 1t is reasonable theory,
however, that good carriage has q
favorable influence on the general bodily
condition, and physical directors nova
days lay stress on 1t.
II is strange if, as indicated by this
Harvard report, preparatory schools are
neglecting bodily mechanics, for a cam
paign Of public education has been carried
on for some years. The subject ought to
be taught before boy or girl reaches the
college age Instruction can hardly begin
too early--Providenc journal.

Sees Danger To Its Party.

The Philadelphia Inquirer, a news.
paper that unfalteringly supports the
Republican party, is deeply concerned
over the stubborn attitude OF the Treaty
killers" in the United States Senate
Lodge, Borah and other shining lights
of the party. 1t sees peril to the party
in their unpatriotic course.
There is undoubted danger in thrusting
the Treaty into the Presidential cam
paign," says the Inquirer IN the course
of an editorial calling urgently for ratifi-
cation. but aside from that, if il is made
an issue grave internal problems will be
sidetracked. The menace today, not only
to Republicans, but TO the prosperity of
the United States and the peace OF the
world, is afforded by the handful of
'bitter-enders' in the Senste.'
This is good advice, but it is doubtful
if it viii have any effect upon those to
whom it is directed. Both Pennsylvania
Senators are among the 'bitter-enders'
whose unpatriotic course, in the opinion
of this Philadelphia Republican paper,
is such grave menace to public interests

GERMAN EFFICIENCY.

Reports of riots, strikes and disorder
of ail kinds In Germany are likely to lead
many to form wrong impression of what
is actually going on there. There is plenty
of unrest and uncertainty In the new re-
public, it is true But, now and then little
information Sits through the guarded
Berlin press bureaus which indicates that,
on the whole, German industry and b u.s.
mess is getting on very well,
Notwithstanding years OF warfare,
the old-time commercial efficiency re-
mains. Nothing is left undone to restore
production to normal. For many years
industrial and commercial fairs drew
buyers from all parts Of the world and
had a wide influence in encouraging steady
manufacturing in the German Empire.
Fhis effective method of arousing
interest in production and extending
markets is being promoted on wide
scale. Great fairs are being planned for
next spring and summer, ut which all
sorts Of German manufactures will be ex-
hibited. Special efforts are being made to
encourage buyers from all parts of the
world to attend them. Industrial and
commercial Germany intends to let every
one know that the country is back on the
Job in producing virtually everything
she sold before warfare become her chief
business. Cleveland Plain Dealer.

PRESS COMMENT.
FIGHTING THE AMENDMENT.

II must bc borne in mind that 'ItiSa-
ton 10 pending In the courts Of nino States
| where tho referendum has been invoked
by petition. In addition, in tonth State
(Washington) the State Supreme Court
has sustained tho referendum. II tho
United States Supreme Court MIutains tho
Ohio referendum and tho State courts
follow suit, as they doubtless would, the
amendment has not yct beon adopted.
That iB, fourteen States have not yet COM
pleted their votes or have voted mo, and
there are less than thEty-sIx ayes, the
required number. Consequently, the final
result may yet turn on tho vote Of Mary
land and on whether her Legislature,
now in session, reacinds or not And
Maryland must put herself in q position
at once to take advantage OF the Supreme
Courts affirmation Of Ohio's referendum
contention, for tho reason that the court
will not reach argument on the case until
March or later, when our Legislature will
have adjourned. The moral influence,
as we'll rs the possible legal effect, Of such
course on the part Of Maryland cannot
be over-cmphasized.
The value of this suggestion lies IN
tho fact that it proposes a definite rem
edy and an immediate limo Of action. As
a matter Of fact, there arc bound to bo
not ono but thirty or forty virtual refer
endums en- this question, repeated indeti-
nitely. In other words, large number
of the American people viii keep this
issue in politics for gcnoration to come
and will make it their central And con-
trolling thought in evcrv State and Con-
eressional campaign. II this innaming
aud discordant issue could be thrown out OF
the national aroma at once by rcscuing the
Constitution from this foreign and dis
turbing amendment and by restoring tho
liquor question to the legitimate field Of
local option, we should get even better
results for temperance, and should re-
move source OF deep irritation and Of
net improbable danger. To allow this
issue to remain as perpetual gage OF
battle is to create the possibility OF all
kinds of political combinations that may
result in national disaster and disgrace.
Unscrup,ilous leaders On both sides,
fanatical or cunning organizations would
be continually bidding against each other,
and the time may come when some OF
them may be ready to offer anything for
victory. II is unquestionably in the in
terest Of national welfare to remove, il
possible. a Federal law which tends to
bitter hostility and civil strife.--Balti-

REPUBLICAN SCHOOLMASTERS.

Senator Borah wants another month
in which To polish off the countrys edu-
cation in the Treaty. A month hence.
he thinks, when the country has passed
Borah's examination papers magma cum
laude, the Treaty viii be defeated.
Americans are apparently duliwitted
pupils. For nearly seven months they
have been following the Lodge-lnox-
Boral-Johnson extension course IN Trea-
ties and How TO Kill Them, but they are
by no means ready for the final examina-
tion. The chambers Of commerce are
certain to funk the exam, because they
want a treaty. The American Fedora
tion Of Labor is cure TO be placked because
the Federation of Labor wants a Treaty.
Among others who will need great deal of
extra tutoring before they learn to say no
TO Peace Treaty, are the churches, the
women's organizations, the colleges and
in particular the college facultIes-and a
large number of eminent Republicans.
There is reason to believe that Mr.. Win
HAYS is not as clear as he might be on the
conjugation of To Kill Treaties. Worst
of all, it seems as If MIR. Lodge himself
needs bracing up of the most heroic kind.
He got dose of it last week from Pro-
fessors Borah and johnson, specialists IN
treaty <IlssStiiSSia aiiu ifiSesiSso vi tiie
Covenant.
But if the country's education IN treaty
killing makes only poor progress how IS 1T
with the country's education IN the poll
cies and management OF the Republican
party? That must be one of the worries
which set Mr.. VIII Hays mind wandering
from the Borah-Johnson textbook. The
country is being educated to Republican
party whose course is determined by
ultimatums from within. Now
the mild Republicans threaten TO JOIN
hands with the Democrats 1t does not
matter that the mild Republicans threaten
revolt in order to save the Treaty and the
wild Republicans threaten revolt In order
to kill the Treaty. For Senator Lodge the
vital issue is apparently that there must
be no break In Republican unity" even
Il it is unity OF opposites. There must |
be no detection from the Lodge leadership |
sven if it is leadership that lirehes |
rom side to side.
Such is the spectacle offered by Re
publican party which is preparing to
make its inherent fitness TO rule one of the |
ssues of the campaign. No wonder Mr..
HAYS worries.-New York Evening Post.

Our Rcascnable Water Charges.

january is the month for payment Of
yearly ter charges in this city, dis
count Of ) per cent being allowed on all
bills during this period. Tomorrow, there
fore, is the last day Of grace, SO far as this
discount is concerned
Tho people of Wilmington, in the
annual performance of civic duty IN
paying water charges, may congratulate
themselves that Notwithstanding the
long reign Of excessive charges, here is a
commodity they are provided with at
about the same rates that prevailed IN
normal times. The Water Department
has not been called upon to make any
material increase in meter rates, while
as to fiat rates it has made no increase
whatever. The charge for one hydrant
to a house is still FIVE dollars per annum,
while the fat meter rate to houses is $40
pet annum, with daily maximum allow
ance of 800 gallons of water. And this
allowance is sufficient for family OF
half dozen persons, with water connec-
tons inside and outside the premises,
including ample facilities for bath and
toilet. Not only are these rates in graft
flying contrast with the prevailing charges
for other necessities, but they arc reason
able. even for normal times.
The Water Department management
in our city has been creditable and
effective almost since its establishment,
in 1885, after the end of the litigation
against the law calling itinto existence,
which was passed in 1888. For years its
revenues were sufficient for operation,
maintenance and upkeep, with surplus
that not only met all the interest on out
standing Water Department bonds, but
met all the debt, at maturity, that
existed when it started. During recent
years it has been handicapped by the
result of partisan legislation that de-
stroyed its independence and made IT
dependent upon City Council for annual
for its maintenance, the
Council ruthlessly appropriating its am
pie revenues to enable it to pay illegally
contracted floating debts: but despite this
