The Barren Short Session

Snort sessions OF Congress are
ruthless legislation wreckers. This
year the record of wasted effort is
little more fragrant than usual. In
1919 the Republican minority held
up many of the big appropriation
bills as matter Of public policy.
These bills were ovcrpadded with
expenditures estimated for by de-
partment officials who didn't want
to recognize the fact that the war
was over. BY forcing an extra ses-
sion and redrafting the sidetracked
bills the incoming Republican
Congress saved the taxpayers
S939, 100000.
This year only the naval appro-
priation bill was left stranded in
Congress. The army bill passed,
but President Wilson killed it by
pocket veto, apparently because it
made too deep a cut in Mr.. Bakers
care-free estimates and clashed
with the War Departments over
ambitious postwar program. The
failure of these measures is of no
great consequence. The new Con-
gress will meet in April and can
easily pass the remaining appropri-
alton bills before the present fiscal
year ends. But much other desir-
able legislation was sacrificed to the
essential vices Of the short session
schedule, which puts a premium on
the veto power not only Of the Pres
ident, but of minorities, groups and
even individuals in Congress who
want to set up their will against the
will Of the majority.
The immigration bill, for in
stance, had an overwhelming sup
port in both houses. 1t was the first
constructive scheme of regulation
which Congress has formulated. If
Mr.. Wilson had vetoed it (and he
had plenty of time to do that) it
would have been repassed and would
now be law. He smothered it by
withholding his signature, as he is
permitted to do in the last ten days
of a session. This evasion is as
Aeenly regretted by the Democrats
IN Congress as by the Republicans
The emergency tariff bill was We
toed outright and the House didn't
overrule the veto, the majority for
repassage being less than two
thirds. The Senate also would
lave beaten the bill under the same
conditions, had there been a vote
The bill was overloaded and lost
much of its emergency character
before it was sent to the White
House. A good deal of it's support
was insincere, and such insincerity
s encouraged by short-term con-
d;tions. The reapportionment and
budget bills, both Of Importance, the
former manifesting sound re-
versal of policy in the direction OF
! checking the growth of the Houses
membership, were crushed to death
in the jam.
All in all, the record is a startling
example of work done under high
pressure and then coming to moth
ing largely because of the shackles
which the short session puts on nor.
NAL legislative procedure.

REPUBLICAN VOLCANO
ERUPTION IMMINENT

Notwithstanding the fact that the
Republicans at the last election car
ried everything in the county-as well
as in the state and nation-with large
maojrities, it is apparent to close po-
litica1 observers that since last No
vember split has been widening in
county Republican ranks.
No political party ever existed
which was entirely free from jealous
les from within ,and when party
wins such an overwhelming victory as
did the Republican party last fali,such
jealousies and sore spots are, as a
rule, much more numerous. Should
the breech in the county ranks re-
main unhealed by November, 1922, the
casual observer will witness politi-
cal upheaval here which will dwarf
into insignificance the efforts Of H. g..
Rowe and others which were success
full to the extent that they filled the
county offices with friends" in 1908
\ and the two years following. That
| the old members of the Bull Moose
party will form nucleous upon which
to build anew should real split oc-
cur is doubtful, however, as there
1ain't no such thing" if the words OF
former Moosers can be believed-ev-
en- those who will admit that there
ever was such party being, few and
far between.
4 The trouble, which started previous
to the close of the campaign last fall,
has drifted from mere lack of har-
| mony to open warfare in some cases.
The mayoralty contest two weeks ago
at the primary election in Wadsworth
was the outgrowth Of more than pure
| ly friction between faction headed
by the Match Company and one which
] owes allegiance to the present Repub-
| lican incumbent, DR.. Boyer.
Many disagreements between pres
ent county officials and members Of
the county executive committee have
been kept sub rosa.
4 Open warfare is looked for between

NINETEEN STUDENTS
All Anxious to Make Most Of
Opportunity.

Among the notable school activi-
ties of last week was the opening of
the new Medina Courity Normal

enrolled and the number bids fair to
increase until the school will be filed
to the limit Of its capacity. A good
spirit prevails. All show desire to

versity at Athens-in case the student
desires to take the second year of
normal instruction. Only the first
first year is offered in County oNr-
NAL.
The school is nicely located in two
Of the smaller rooms on the second

as a library and reading room, where
the students have access to the Norm

"Huckleberry Finn" the picture
shown at the Grand theater last eve
ming was enjoyed by a packed house
The proceeds of the picture go to-
ward financing the public library: A
very interesting program had been
prepared by the school children, part
of which was carried out before the
show and the remainder afterwards
DR.. E. A. Pray, president Of the pub
lie library board, gave a short talk re-
garding the straits into which he
claimed that the library had fallen as
regards financing. He stated that the
institution needed city heat, and 9TH
er Improvements besides books, etc
He pointed out the benefits derived
from the library by the student body
in Valley City. which includes both
the High School, Normal and grade
schools. He asked that the citizens
get behind the proposition Of financ-
ing the institution when funds are
asked through taxation. The picture
was very enjoyable one, especially
to those who have read Mark Twain's
famous book. If you did not see the
picture last evening, you missed
something. You will not only enjoy
the entire program, but at the same
time will be helping along cause
