A STRIKING FIGURE GONE

In his days Of power Joseph Cur
ney Cannon withstood attack like
granite and seemingly rejoiced in the
buffetings. With his associates, re-
CARELESS of political prejudice, his
kindly regard won their affection
And death was kind to the old war
rior Of many forensic battle and
captured him while he slept.
Many of us recall his visits to
Maine, the esteem in which he was
held by our delegation in Congress,
the national figure that he was, the
individuality that characterized his
strong personality. Over a period of
So years he was intimately interested
in the affairs Of our national legis-
lature, much of that time being
member. A remarkably long service;
a commanding figure in assault, wise
in counsel helpful in his relations,
striking type of an American
throughout two generations.

EXECUTIVE CONTROL IN
PHILIPPINES

1t is not related that all Amer
lean Statesmen" have aversion to
control Of the sinews of war, and
surely no more could be expected Of
the Filipino variety. 1t may be TAX
en- for granted that they will pro-
functions in the Philippines are
vested in the Governor General and
the consequent assumption by Cen
eral Wood of those functions in
abolishing the Philippine Board of
Control, the duties of which he
takes over.
That Board wa composed of the
Governor General, the president Of
the Philippine senate and speaker
of the house. Hostility existed be-
tween the Governor and the legisla-,
tive heads. The Board came into ex-
1stence during the regime of Harri-
son. 1t served the desires Of the
Filipinos who wish to exercise both
. the executive and the legislative
functions Of the government, who
ask that government like that of
Canada, of which the Governor Gen.
eral is largely a figurehead, shall re-
place a Governor General with e1ecu-
tive powers. such as 1t was the inten-
ton Of our Congress to place in his
hands.
This Board with power to outvote
the Governor General had supervis-
Ion Of tho Philippine National Bank.
pt the Manila Railway Co., the Ma
tional Coal Co. and exercise influence
on other enterprises, private as well
as public. It was formidable factor
in politics, If turned to such use. A
disposition to do this has been ap-
parent under the control Of the
leaders Of the Philippine legisla-
ture. Such arrangement has not
been productive of business con-
fidence or development The change
should be to the advantage of these
and properly administered will
prove beneficial to the FiIipinos,
who yet will retain through their
legislative bodies a check on NAL
administration if they choose to
exercise 1t. and We may be sure
they will not overlook any oppor-
tunity to do this.

Hello, Charlie Chicadee!" shouted
Uncle Lucky one morning In chilly
November, I'm going to see that you
have plenty of food this winter. SO

II shan't worry" answered that
friendly little bird. mo, stree There

Maybe l should have said last

bunny, correcting himself. To be ex-
act, it was in late March and early
April"
I'm pleased to think I've been of
service to you," twittered the little
bird. ,"There's nobody 1 know for
whom I'd more gladly do favor"
Much obliged" laughed the dear
old bunny man.

tie bird.
You certainly did me a good turn"
went on dear Uncle Lucky.
"Ill say he did" all of a sudden
cawed a well-known voice, and there
on nearby tree sat Professor Jim
Crow, his Wisdom Book under his
wing and big pair of spectacles on
his beak.
Hello" cried the old gentleman
rabbit. Glad to hear you agree with
me-"

Plumbing in his coat pocket, the
obliging old gentleman rabbit pulled
out an OLD envelope, on which he be-
gan to mark some figures. What's the
answer" asked Professor Jim Crow,
with smile.

proudly replied nice Uncle Lucky.
Dearest me. / had no idea that Char

favor. No wonder my apple trees bore

IF human beings would be kinder
to US birds, realizing that we do so
much good, many an orchard would
bear twice the amount OF fruit"
cawed the wise old crow, closing his
Wisdom Book and winging his way
into the next story. Yes, indeed, Little
Reader, many of us don't know what a
lot of help the little feathered people
can render.

CONFIRMED CRIMINALS AND
RESTRAINT

Instances of criminals, who only
keep out of prison for comparative
ly brief period, are SO numerous that
1t has been urged arrangements
should be made for continuous
restraint. In this state there was a
prisoner. a tractable, kindly fellow.
who would steal footwear. He would
serve his term, 90 out, and after
few months be back again for
another term, his offence being the
same in all instances, the stealing
Of shoes. He seemed obsessed by the
idea that society owed him protec-
ton for his pedal extremeties. Much
expense attended the apprehending
and committing, and the prisoner
was In no way reformed. The state
could clothe him entirely more
cheaply than to go to all the legal
expense Of recommitting him.
New York has some new laws
known as the Baumes laws. These
were designed to protect society from
the confirmed criminal, the four
times convicted felons. especially the
more dangerous. Instances Of gun
men serving short terms, getting out
on parole for good behavior and
regularly committing their favorite
crime and being sentenced-if caught
to another brief term, had aroused
Indignation; impaired respect for the
courts and needlessly exposed soci-
ETY.. AS a result of these laws GRIM
inals are said to be leaving New York
out of their field of activity. but the
judges are dissatisfied.
They claim these laws are too
drastic; that instances occur where
by the criminal is given a sentence
altogether disproportionate to the
offense; that judges should be given
more discretion. 1t is evident that
abuse Of discretion is largely respon-
sible for the passage of the laws. If
the good that Is reported to have re-
suited from these laws has not been
exaggerated it would seem best to
retain them in the interests of gen.
eral welfare to which, under such
conditions individual welfare should
be subordinate. Relief might be had
through provisions under which
those with a mania for crime might
be treated as are treated certain
other manias, forms Of insanity. In
der such an arrangement the stealer
Of shoes, otherwise harmless, should
find a fairly comfortable restraint on
his liberty, while the gunman, always
potential killer, would be kept from
preying on the lives of innocent
people. Here would seem to be a
chance to exemplify all the discretion
that should be allowed in such in
stances.

1.-THE LAFOLlETTIAN SQUAD"

Any administration of national 'af-
fairs is greatly advantaged by it's
party's control of the legislative
organization, assuming that party
fealty functions, though but fairly
well. 1t will be recalled that Presi-
dent Wilson was extremely anxious
to have this control of Congress by
the Democratic party notwithstand-
Ing the loyal cooperation the Re-
publicans had given respecting
war measures. Naturally, President
Coolidge would be DESTROYS of hay-
ing such coordination on the part
of Congress when that body organ
lies year from this time.
How much of advantage 1t may
prove If insurgents wearing the label
of the administration party balk and
refuse to aid in organization, as has
occurred in at least one instance
four years ago when the malcon-
tents insisted on the selection of a
Democratic chairman, is a question
about which there is likely to be
difference of opinion. Nevertheless
1t is regarded as an obligation on
party leaders to strive for party
control though it be in some ways
but little better than nominal.
The Republicans would organize
the next Senate. The Democrats
would do likewise. A group of
radicals, who evidently prefer the
Republican cloak to the Democratic
but who heretofore have evinced 4
readiness to Cooperate with the
Democrats on occasion, are in a way
to exercise influence in this con-
Eressional control altogether dis
proportionate to their number or to
she number Of people they represent.
The more farseeing among the
Democrats perceive that dickerins
with these malcontents has not in
che past proved advantageous in the
long run There are indications that
they hesitate to get involved again
with this bloc.
Ine New York Times, conserv-
etively Democratic, is of the opinion
that II the Democrats are determin-
