Senators Lamar and George.

There is not ian intelligent MissiS.
Sippian unless he is blind with pref.
udice and partisan hate who is not
proud of Colonel Lamar and Gener.
al George. At no period in Amer
lean history would any Of the States
have been ashamed ofthem. From
early manhood both have lived in
The State. Their characters in prl.
vate and public lite have been so
spotless that they have never .yet
been called upon to defend them
selves. In the Senate they are
poor as compared with the million
aires around them and who for the
first time in our history constitute
majority of that body. Though
trained to the law, land the latter
one OF The frst jurists Of our time J
both are now farmers. The tillers
of the soil will never have two
more faithful representatives in
the senate. To Senator George the
friends of the Farmers Congress
should ever be grateful. He has
labOred TO secure the cooperation
Ofleading agrIculturists in all parts
ofthe Union and the success Of that
movement is greatly due to his
efforts. The mental characteristics
of these statesmen are entirely diff.
ferent but they agree as to a strict
limitation OF the powers of the gov
ernment and in this respect seem
to come down from a former gener.
alton, while they represent The sol
i'd men aAd thought Of the present
time. They are both progressive III
the proper meaning of the word,
and no two Senators will leave on
the records Of that body more en-.
during monuments cf wise and
comprehensive statssmanship.-

IT is 10 be hoped that there is no
truth in the story that the leading
railroads OF the country are taking
steps to raise large fund for the
purpose of defeating railroad legis.
Istion by Congress and securing
The abolitie n Of state railroad Com
missions. Such course would in,
ovitably result in conflict that
could do the railroad interests Of
the country no good, but might do
them infinite harm. There is no dis.
position on the part Of the people
to have the railroads unfairly dealt
with. The feeling iS very pro.
nounced, however, 10 the effect that
railroad operations should be judi
ciOusly regulated and supervised;
and that feeling could very easily
be changed to one efdirect and bit
ter snmity by q proceeding OF the
kind suggested. If the railroads
are wise, they will cultivate the ia
vor andconiidenee OF the public,
and manifest their readiness TO
abide by such laws as shall ! be
deemed just and reasonable with
regardtO their business. Failing
to do that, they will simply invite
the very misfOrtunOs which they
seek to avoid. st. Louis Globe.
