THURSDAY, MARGINS, 1892
Beware the Ides of March

With national and state elections in the
offing there must be any number OF con-
grcssmen in Washington at this writing who
dread the Ides of March, the ldes in this
instance being the 4th On that day the
House of Representatives will be brought
face to face with its first test vote on pro-
hibition after more than decade of wrangl-
ing over its resubmission. While there is not
much hope on the wet side of securing two
thirds of both the House and Senate to agree
ia resubmsson the vote that must follow
will clearly show the dividing line between
vets and dryS, one that too many legislators
have straddled successfully for years
Briefly reviewed the case is as follows:
A bill, embodying proposed constitutional
amendment. was introduced in Congress by
Representatives Beck, republican, and Lin
thcum democrat, leaders of the wet bloes
ia their respective parties The measure
would superscde the Sth amendment by
permitting states to regulate their own liquor
problems with regard to manufacture and
sale at the same time compelling the federal
government to protect the rights of states
that prefer to retain prohibition. Further:
more, the proposed amendment would be
ratified by state conventions rather than by
the legislatures.
The bill was referred to the House Judi
eiary committee which reported unfavoraby
upon it. In former years this would have
been the end of it. However when the
House organized last December, it changed
many rules of procedure. A petition signed
by one-third of the House membership
GAS namcs) was ruled sufficient to compel
a record vote on the question of bringing the
resolution out on the floor over the unwill-
ing committees vote. 1t is upon this matter
that the House will vote on March IA, To
bring out the proposed amendment ma
jarty vote will be necessary. Wet leaders
don't believe that they can muster this much
strength. 2lS. with a full House attend
ance.
However. we are wondering il the pro-
posed vote. which must go on the records
may not be avoided by many. There are
many representatives who do not care to
20 on record one way or the other in regard
to prohibition. AS result they are apt
10 absent themselves from the session. Off
hand we'd say that sixty more votes would
insure the wet side OF majority. If there is
no decrease in attendance, there is no chance
Of the House demanding the rcsubmission
of the bill, But if there is, then the proh'-
bition forces will find themselves at last
receiving their first setback in Congress
AT least the nation will find out who is who
and what is what in this prohibition
muddlc.
