, The Hew Regime In the House.
The net result of the upheaval in the
house of representatives over the mat
ter f tales, is that, the . committee on
rules 'will consist pf ten members lu
sjtead, of five,, as. heretofore, and they
will' be appointed by, ballot. . Hereto
fort, the. speaker, of the house has
. named four members of. the commit
tee, he. himself being the fifth. The
Change Is radical and Is the outcome
of contentions which have been going
on; In congress for a generation nt
... least-: 1 .. . . ; i
Bix of. the ten members of the corn-
'.; mittee on rules will be chosen from
;;; the party having-a majority In the
bouse and four from the minority.
'I This will give the two leading parties
the, control, of the rules. ,Tbe lmpor-
tanee.of the committee on rules iu the
. business of the- house te-well nigh su
. preme. It has been frankly confessed
again and again that; co-operation 'on
r. the part of this committee Is essential
to the success, of 'any legislative pro
gram. It has often been charged that
the speaker of the house, who created
the committee which created the rules
through which he governed proceed
ings, such as the Introduction and con
; sideratlon of bills, ruled with the pow
er of a czar. This power, such as it Is,
will in future devolve upon the six
committeemen- chosen from the rank
of the majority.-1 '
' It was said that the old rules com
mittee made the bouse "do business.".
Now that the committee has been dou
bled business ought to hit a pace, to
beat ali records. ' .

...... Census Confidences.
In order to quiet fears which have
been noted In, a large element of the
population that business' confident's
shared with census takers may lead t j
unpleasunt consequences at some ' ort
the bureau has prepared and ser,t out
an official statement relative to- the de
cennial census, its origin, purjioae and
uses. Public spirited citizens who
come in contact wlOi large numbers of
people are asked to explain the real
facts about the census and urge their
neighbors to give full replies to the
census takers- ' -
All i- bureau officials, ' supervisors,
clerks, enumerators and interpreters
are under oath not to disclose any In
formation shared with them for census
purposes. It Is, of course, necessary to
get at the facts about each individual
farm, factory and mining or lumbering
plant But the farm will ultimately
appear only as one among the, many
millions in the. country, or one. of the
1,000,000 , or, 500,000 worth over; and
under certain sums and producing over
and. under a certain number of live
stock, bushels, pounds or tons , each
year. Particulars as to the details of
manufacturing, banking and buying
and selling are equally Indefinite in the
final showing, but help to make the
grand summaries of the census ap
proximately correct and valuable In
Just so much as they are complete and
truthful.
;. Insurgent Woman
c.That woman isnot - in rebellion
against nature, only against arbitrary
limitations, Is the opinion of Edwin
BJorkman, writing in Collier's Weekly
on the meaning of woman's new activ
ities. Mr.- BJorkman argues that wo
man's fcolnt of view has changed be
cause social . and economic conditions
have changed ' Woman Is -adjusting
Herself and to this end must-expert
ment and do the things long held to be
unconventional. ' v
When the adjustment of woman ar
rives after the unsettling process of
this change, her position may not be
relatively altered She may lead where
once she followed and command where
once she obeyed ., This will be where
man Is found wanting. Progress can
not wait upon man's fidelity nor ignore
woman's transcendeut powers. Wo
man has always been a factor. She
swayed the Alexanders and Caesars as
well as the grand monarths of later
days. The difference is that nnn aim
works Iu the open and shuns not the
limelight. Her experiments, failures
and all are beacons for the sex.
Germany wants trade and not terri
toryfor the present at least Her ex
planation that she Is creating a mod
era nnry to protect and command re
spect for her commerce Is plausible
enough to open minds. ' .
