' . FRIDAY MARCH 2 1917 ' , ' -v : ' . Washington, Feb. 28. The Re publican Publicity Association, throu its President, Hon. Jonathan Bourne, - Jr., today gave out the following' sta , tement at its Washington headquar ters V '.The President's address to Con gress leaves no . doubt as to what he ... wants. He wants all the power in v his hands, with Congress dispersed while he tempts fate with the issues of peace or war. We may freely ad- mit that Mr. Wilson is firmly devot ed to the cause of, peace, that nothing which he would do knowingly would - involve . us ' in hostilities ; and, it may be, that nothing which he would do unwittingly would produce such an outcome. "But even so, it would- be a dan- vgerous precedent to establish. ' The war-making powwers of the Constitu tion are vested solely , in Congress. : They and not the President are the -representatives of the' people, from whom they take a frequent mandate. If they make a vital error now they may be dealt . with in November of ; next year. If the President makes a vital error now heTnay not be dealt "Even if the President possessed all the wisdom of the country which he will not claim, even if he embodied all the idrtue of the nation which he will not claim, even :if his Cabinet were a 'Ministry of all the ; talents' -which they are not, it would be most unwise to place in his hands the po wer which he desires "The American President, under v the Constitution,' - already possesses more authority than any other chief of state. European monarches -are guided, by their Ministrries, who, , in turn, are responsible to ' parliaments, which rare speedinly responsive to the popular will. The sole check , on an American .President is the counsels .of Corgi;ess; and there is no f easi- ble peaceful method of diminishing w his tenure ? To: add to his powers; as Mr. Wjilson.asks might or might not result in i war. It might produce a war which the peoples representa tives could not sanction in morals but which in practice they would have to Sustain. It might produce . a peace which they likewise could ' not ap prove in patriotism, though they might be compelled to submit to it. And it surely would create a situa tion wherein -there would be more of I future danger to American institu tions than could be found in the most ' bloody and-costly of ware or in the most supine sort of peace. "Judging, the future of the United m States in the long perspective of cen turies and rot by the mere phases of i a passing condition, it would be fari better to", wage war, to expend life, and to squander treasure than to ad mit that the people through their re presentatives, were so doubtful of their own judgment and . their own sentiments that they preferred to surrender to one man and to one mind the greatest 'issue which can confront a nation." AN OLIVE TWIST . . . . . . ADMINISTRATION It was olive twist whose plate was - always held up with the cryfor "More It is the Democrat , administration which is alway going to , Congress with a like demand. , Under the guise of preparedness, . the thee-Secretary of the Navy is as kiner Congress for more power to en able him-,to take over and to operate private enterprises if and when his single judgment shall determine that an exigency requires it.

REVENUE BILL PASSES ' ; SENATE BY CLOSE VOTE Washington, Feb. 28. The admin istration revenue bill, designed . to raise $350,000,000 -through special taxes and bond issues, was passed by the senate late tonight by a strict party vote, 47 to 33. Immediately after the vote, which followed the defeat of scores, of am endments offered in quick succession by Republicans, Senator Stone moved to adjourn until 12:40 o'clock so as to clear the legislative situation .for con sideration of the armed neutrality bill. Senator Penrose countered with a motion to , adjourn to 10 :30 tomor row morning, and when that -had been voted down anther by Senator LaFollette was beaten. udtn em50 etaoin shrdlu cmfwypv FAMILY AVOIDS SERIOUS SICKNESS By Being Constantly Supplied With Thedf ord's Black-Draught.
