NE SAW THE CIRCUS.

Washington dispatches relate the
great CONSERVATION caused in the SEN
ate yesterday by the discovery of q
young man in the gallery while the
members of this august body supposed
themselves in secret session. 1t is
probable that ne was asleep when the
doors were closed. and awoke to find
himself made famous by his nap.
Luckily. however, he was elected before
he secured any valuable information
il such there was to DE obtained.
The principle of doing business be-
hind closed door is not i'm harmony
with the spirit of freedom of thought
and speech which is supposed to form
the very foundation of this govern
ment. and when the United states sen
ate abolishes its secret sessions il will
take u long step forward i'm the line
of progress. At most, they
but serve the purpose of giving
members of that body an opportunity
of venting petty spite and not being
held accountable for their action. The
public presumes, and rightly too, that
statements are made in these star
chamber sessions which would never
bear the light of day, and that there be-
hind closed doors, with the light turned
low. like II lot of conspirators or coun-
terfeiters, these great men stoop tn ac-
tions which they would never dare at
tempt in public.
The secret session serves no good
purpose in aiding To dispose of presi-
dental nominations. If an unfit ap-
pointment is made, the public has IA
right tn hear the evidence against the
candidate. II he is unworthy the con
tidence of this government. il is right
n a his fellow citizens should De

one way; but IL In not the better way.
However, we have no doubt that, IL
the republicans win i'm this latest
scheme, they will plant IL rs the chief
orn stone of h aw-makingf fabric
they propose to set up. In that case
the democrats will elect two federal
senator's, the republicans will elect w
contestants and h fight will be packed
of to the national capital.
This being the situation it would be,
in our Judgment, infinitely to h credit
Of the state IL the era might n which
finds this or that man devOtinR day and
night to devising schemes which are
assumed to have merit il only they are
cunning. Far better for Governor
Toole and Lieutenant Governor Rick
ards To announce i'm the hearing Of all
the rivals i'm Helena that they have
agreed to disagree, hat the sena-
torial question. however insignifi-
can't its relative merits, has
has become hopelessly interviewer I'm
the tangled situation and that, when
the time comes for choosing senators,
each party will name it's own. Would
this course clear the way for the peace
full organization Of the legislature?
Possibly not, but it certainly would not
add to the confusion and it would de-
fine the fight for the group of republi-
cans whose unbounded ambition is to
get seats in the senate by nook or
crook. These men are the fathers of
the Silver Bow fraud. they nave beer
its devoted sponsors, their personal po-
litical fortunes are at stake,
they are determined to win
and ambition makes them reckless
as to methods. Let us get these men
out of the way by sending the contest
to Washington. There Colonel Sanders
and his friends nav all the advantage
in the world. The senate is republican.
At all times il is the most arrogant leg
islative body IN the globe. 1t will seat
republicans or democrats at the dicta-
ton of what its members deem to be
good party policy. No higher motive
will govern the decision, but it will be
final, and Montana's people would be
glad to get rid Of the whole business.
Days ago, the democrats took their
seats i'm the senate. At this hour they
are practically tied up while the repub-
licans are frightened and are threading
the devious paths of questionable poll
tics. Let Colonel Sanders and his am
bilious associates try the short cut to
the senate and take their chances. That
ought to satisfy their g~luttonish greed
for Ofiice-at any rate it would keep the
state treasury ought of the fight and
spare the people from added exhibitions
of pot GUS methods i'm politics.

An Ingenious Scheme.

We once asked st. Louis bookseller
whether he ever got hold Of any first editions.
"Oh, yes. I've got lot Of them stored
away In my Chestnut street lodgings" said
he, "but nobody seems to want them When
used to offer them for sale customers would
say: No, you can't ring in any old truck on
US; we must have the latest editions with all
the modern Improvements"
II, at the big second hand book store in
Milwaukee, you inquire for first editions, the
proprietor gives you a candle and sends you
down into the cellar to tumble over great
heap of books There's no demand for them
here" he says, ruefully, land I'll be glad to
get shet of 'em at almost any price"
A funny experience was that which we
! once had in Boston. Going into the cata-
comb Like book shop under the Old South
church, we asked the venerable proprietor If
he had any cheap books.
Eyes" says he, twelve got thousand or
fifteen hundred of 'em, but they're all boxed
up and slowed away"
''Bo1ed up and slowed away" We cried in

Needn't Look Like an Undertaken.

There are people in this world 80 good
that they make you tired. You meet
them most often in good places, and they
are quite apt to keep people away from
the good places instead of drawing them
there. The good Bishop Middleton, who
had studied the thing carefully, has said:
Virtue itself offends when coupled with
forbidding manners" Virtue ought not
TO do that. and such a coupling makes it
all the worse for virtue. There is no rea-
son why virtuous young man should
look like an undertaken. and why sinful
chap should be fascinating. Things are
wrong this way. The good young man
should be charming with wit and wisdom.
and unconsciously he will mark his way
in the world with sweetness and light
and gladness, and let virtue have better
time than sin can ever have.-New Or
