CURRENCY CAUCUS
TURNED THE TRICK
MIGHT H WE BEEN DONE SOONER;
HAD PRESIDENT CONSENTED. |
Weak Committee Verdict.?^lucli Cvni-j
eal Comment on Lack of Nerve
of Lobby Committee.
Washington, December 13.?What
has been done in the senate in the
Tray of advancing the currency bill
since the regular session of congress !
opened shows what could have been!
done at the extra session if the presi- j
dent had been willing sooner to permit
the measure to be made a party!
affair by the democratic caucus route, j
Had the currency question in the |
senate been turned over to the caucus !
live or six weeks sooner than it was? I
and the president was urged by many j
of his sincerest supporters to consent i
to this necessary method at the outset?it
is quite possible that the bill
could have been passed before the:!
special session came to a close.

The point is simply this: Until the
bill was made a party measure, thus
demonstrating to the country that the!
democratic majority was behind it,
the republicans were in a position to
retuse an agreement on a date to vote
and escape suffering the whole respon- .
sioilicy lor the delay. i1
Before the O'Gormans and the Heeds !:
were called to taw by tne caucus they j.
and a few occasional sympathizers in !
the senate were helping the marplot!,

IJ

and were really more to blame for the 1
delay than the republicans, who would naturally
take aavantage 01 uissenciwii ]
in the ranks of the majority. Howev- 1
er, when the democrats put themselves
into phalanx whose effective- ^
ness and preparedness the whole coun |
try could see. and when the responsibility
was made to rest directly on ^
the G. 0. P. by the resolutions adopt- ^
ed at the suggestion of the same ^
shrewd O'Gorman w>ho had a few ,
c
weeks before been practicing demo- j
cratic "insurgency,"' the republican j
senators had to fall in line with the
movement to pass the bill before the
holidays or commit a political blunder.
j
"They cussed awful" under their 1
breath and complained that they were jthe
victims of a piece of trickery, but.
the republicans came down without j
fr\T o -n ir rriAra onntc Th P f?) ft

is that the O'Gorman resolution to ,
speed up the machinery before the i
holidays was as pretty a specimen of j
political acumen as has been seen'
kere for years. It adds another to i
the long chain of circles the democratic
leaders have run around their opponents
in congress since the house
became democratic in 1911.
Fig&t on Alaskan Kajlroad.
Be prepared for a struggle in congress
over the democratic bill to construct
a government railroad in Alaska.
President Wilson in his last personal
address ta the lawmakers j
warmly commended the proposition,!
. i
on which the territories committee or
the house has made a favorable report,
sentiment is very strong for
it at both ends of the capitol. At the
same time, there is a stubborn line of
democratic opposition, to say nothing
of the republican inclination to
oppose wherever a fair opportunity is
offered, and getting the Alaskan rail- j
road bill to the president for his sig- j
nature may be a hard job. 1
The opposition comes from thosej
who are against the government own- ]
prshin and oDeration of Dublic utili-:
ties, especially railroads, or who have I
not made up their minds on this mat- >
ter and fear that the adoption of the :
policy in Alaska will be the entering
wedge for the adoption of the same '
policy all over the United States.
Some of those who hestitate about the '
government's starting this sort of!
thing in Alaska are entirely sincere.
It is reasonable to suppose that there i
are many others who represent the
. . , i
same exploiting "interests" wmcn i
caused the blight of public distrust
to fall upon the Ballinger management
of the interior department in
:he Taft administration.
Alaska Our >~ew Zealand.
Many who are on principle opposed
to government ownership of railroads
and other great public utilities within
the comines of the United States
proper are in favor of the idea in
Alaska on the ground that a special
arrangement for the "unbottling" of
tiiis vast ana almost neiyiess lchitory
does not constitute any precedent
for the country as a "whole.
These members and senators argue
that the legislation and climate and !
population conditions of Alaska put
it in a class by itself, and that it is
like an infant which is the heir of
enormous wealth. It cannot protect
and develop itself, and it should not !
be allowed to fall into the hands of
designing persons.
Alaska, it may be predicted, will i
be the American New Zealand?or
peifaaps it would be better, on account
of its size and treasures, to
say that it will be the American Australia.
Great Britian has done things
in those colonies which she would not,
have done at home, and which have j
not. committed her to any change of
domestic policies.
A iVeak Committee Verdict.
There is much cynical comment
here on the lack of nerve displayed by
the house lobby investigating com
mittee, which made a report aoaging
its manifest duty of recommending
proceedings against the one represen- i
tative, McDermott, of Illinois, who!
seems to have been thoroughly discredited
by the evidence in the case.
The committee deplores, and censures,
and wrings . its hands, expresses
amazement that such things can be,
pronounces McDermott to be morally
unfit to servf in congress, but practically
winds up with a sigh after using
all the whitewash it could find. ,
The belief here is that the lobby
charges do not affect the vast majority
of the members of congress, but I
that there have been a guilty few,
and that an example should be made
