SENATOR PALMER.

John NJ. Palmer loses no time to put
himself on record as the champion of the
proposition that United States Senators be
elected by popular voted. He has the in
centive of personal hopes long delayed by
the present system. m.--New York Recorder.
Democratic politicians in the East
would do well TO exercise moderation in
view of recent political event. The
Democrats of the great West have very
promising candidate for the Presidency il,
1902 in the person of United States SEN
ator Palmer. Illinois, Iowa and Wiscon-
sin would be no bad exchange for Kill
kenny.cat fight in New York. .-IHiladel-
I0hia Record.
General Palmer, the new United States
Senator from Illinois, belongs to class of
statesmen that has been little seen or felt
during the last score of years. He Is of
heroic mould; he has frequently sacrificed
political honors, but he has meyer sacri-
iced his convictions. His rather EN-
phatic than elegant expression to one Of
the Farmers Alliance Representatives
who held his election to the Senate in
their hands--"I don't mean to 20 TO hell
by way of the Senate, Mr.. Cockrell,n
summed up his political character so
clearly that none can misunderstood him.
Philadelphia Times.
As we have before stated. we believe
the election of a Democratic Senator
under the circumstances would prove to
be better for the Republican party of
Illinois and of the country than would a
compromise candidate by the aid of Re-
publican votes. II was evident that no
straight, unpledged, desirable Republican
could be chosen. A bargain was neces-
sary. In this direction we fear the Re-
publicans went somewhat further than
was proper, although we give them credit
for knowing their own business. The
Democrats have accepted the bargain, and
they must stand responsible for it.-Cii-
ciRnai Commercial Gazette.
The Democrats of the Illinois Legis-
lature are to be congratulated on the out
come of their splendid fight in behalf Of
General Palmer for the United States SEN
atorship. Their ranks have been solid
and unwavering from the beginning of
the contest, their record in this respect
contrasting very favorably with that of
their opponents, who, after voting for va
rious candidates of their own stripe, have
vainly sought to carry their strength over
to Mr.. Streeter, the choice of the three
Independents, who have held the balance
Of power, but who finally repudiated their
man because of the bargains he had made
with the Republicans in order TO secure
their support. The little handful of Re-
publicans who refused TO go over TO
Sueeter, and thereby prevented his cleo
ton, deserved to be commended for their
good sense.-Bost0N Herald.

THrEr OUGHT TO III some way by which
the colored military organizations of the
District can he kept intact. The two bat
talions which General ORDwAY has dis
banded tmwillingly, no doubt because
the appropriation by the last Congress
was not sufficient to provide for all, con-
tained much excellent material which
should not be lost. Their record is good,
their performances have been well up to
the standard and their esprit and disci-
nlne are of the best. II were pity If
these should disband and go permanently
ont of existence. Colored isen make first
rate soldiers. This has been shown not
only in holiday turn-outs, drills. parades,
etc, but in actual warfare as well. Under
proper discipline they are reliable and
effective in n very high degree. Under
proper auspices they become useful men,
bers of society and self-respecting citizens.
AS q matter of fact, no city in the country
is so much in need of some organized in.
huence Of amelioration and elevation
among its colored population as WASH
inpton. A great number is gathered
here, made up of contributions from
all parts of the country. Some
of these are employed and prosperous.
They are surrounding themselves with
comforts, raising families and contribu-
ting their fair share TO our civilization.
But the number of the unemployed is far
greater. The city swarms with idle
colored people and the police records suf-
fciently show that, with the black as with

closely allied. 1t would do these poor un-
fortunates 10 harm and might do them
much good to see that there are better
and more profitable occupations than
those OF the loafer, the rowdy and the
tramp. 1t would be most useful lesson
toteach them that good behavior sobriety,
industry and self-respect are desirable as
bringing their own reward. The average
negro is not philosopher, however. He
may be impressed by object lessons, but
not by precepts and distractions. To the
extent that we can set before them the ex-
ample of success and prosperity we shall
persuade them that comfort is not to be
found in the gutter or honor in the com
mon Jail. Every respectable organization
composed Of colored men and manifestly
enjoying the esteem of society is sermon
TO the vicious and .he disreputable. Every
instance of elevation in the scale as a re-
suit of private effort and personal worth
is sign post on the road to salvation.
ISince the above went into type the
ncws reached us that the colored battalions
will be reinstated. Full particulars are
given in our reportorial department, and
the consummation will be very generally
hailed with approval.
