Three Senators were named yesterday for the

Three Senators we're named yesterday for the
Ffty-first Congress. In Maine, Mr.. Frye was
renominated by reclamation, a matter of
course. In Michigan, James Mcmillan was
chosen by the republican caucus to succeed
Mr.. Palmer. He is a citizen Of Detroit, presi-
dent of the Michigan car company, ard has a
fortune estimated at fifteen million dollars.
His age is only ffty-one. Without any preten-
sion as an orator, he has shown much ability as
a political organizer, and has spent his money
freely for the party. When Zachariah Chand-
Ter died in 1879. Mr.. Mcmillan succeeded him
as chairman of the republican state central
committee; he was a Blaine and Logan elector
in 1884, and was a prominent candidate for the
Senate to succeed Mr.. Conger in 1887, but
withdrew at the last moment
In Colorado, Mr.. Bowen makes way for
Edward Oliver WOlcott, a Denver lawyer of
large practice. He is reputed to be the most
magnetic speaker who has ever been heard in
that part of the west, and people about the
neighborhood of Denver will travel for miles to
hear him when it is announced that he is to make
q public address. He is counsel for the Denver
and Rio Grande railway company, and one Of
the judges on the Colorado bench once said of
him that he could come nearer to making a
jury cry over corporation suit than any lawyer
that ever lived. Hence, though the upper
house Of the Fifty-frst Congress will exchange
a lumber king and an old-fashioned politician
for two more millionaire railroad attorneys, it
will be gamer over the present body by the
addition of one man whose forensic powers
will recall the memories of better days, when
the floor Of the Senate was the finest field for
debate in the whole country.

The denial of the existence of a wbite-cap
organization in Ohio was followed so promptly
by the administration of whipping to some
offender against the moral code of that order
that probably no attempt will be made to clear
the good name of New Jersey in like manner.
The white caps there have threatened a gro
GERS protective association with tar and feath-
ers, rail riding, and everything else that is bad
II 1t dares to publish list of delinquent debt
ors and dead beats" which it processes to
have prepared fOrprint. Yetit might properly
be suspected that in this case the name of the
terror-breeding association has been used with
out authority to protect lot of people who do
not want their acknowledged shortcomings to
to be exposed. That kind of a regulating body
is not so much to be dreaded as one which has
no motive for its excuses other than deter
mination to make all mankind conform to its
peculiar notions of rectitude. The evil-doer
who Is trying TO escape disgrace is much easier
to catch than the fanatical moralist whose con-
duct is ordinarily that of the average citizen
and who is eccentric only in the dark.
