and deservedly occupies high position.
The morning call., 1893-10-21
SENATOR ALLEN.

There is more than one way of attract
ing public attention. When a politician
gets himself elected to the Senate be has
accomplished something. but not every
thing. He may sit in the Senate six years
and come out very obscure man. Even
his immediate constituents may forget
after a year of two that he ever was a
Senator. Most Senators in the course Of
their terms prepare a speech which they
fondly expect 70 land them among the
notables. Perhaps it does, but more often
it does not. Nearly all the Senators can
read a typewritten speech. and If all can
not write one, there are many men in
Washington who can.
Among the new Senators who have at
tracted attention at this session is Allen of
Nebraska. No one knows whether his
silver speech is above the average or not,
for the reason that no one has read it. But
it was remarkable in the fact that Mr.. AL
len spoke fifteen hours without other rest
than an occasional call Of the Senate, and
at the close showed no signs Of exhaus-
ton. A speech of this length could hardly
be expected to be thrillingly eloquent. In
tellectual effort burns out in couple of
hours. The man may talk on, but his
speech will be more likely to be remem-
bered if the thought and passion in it are
concentrated in from one to two hours
speech.
Senator Allen has made himself unpopu-
lar in the East. The PHILADELPHIA Record
compares his speech to kill time in spirit
to the act of Guiteau in shooting President
Garfield. Both, the Record says, were en-
gagged in defeating tho will OF the people
A little fact which the Philadelphia paper
probably does not think Of much conse-
quence points a difference. The will of
the people has never been expressed in
respect to the repeal of the silver purchas-
ing clause of the Sherman act But as a
score of Eastern papers had come to the
conclusion among themselves that the
repeal bill ought to pass, it may never
have occurred to them that there could be
an intelligent adverse opinion.
The morning call., 1893-10-21
A SILENT CREDITOR.

It is refreshing even at this late day to
find somebody looking after the interests
Of the United States in the matter of the
Union. Pacific Railroad. Acknowledgement
Olney has just discovered that receiver
was appointed for the company without
office on the part of the persons making
the appointment 10 the United States. the
principal creditor of the company. Hav-
ing made this discovery. the Attorney
General has grave doubts If the proceed
ings are valid. The supposed object of
appointing a receiver is to protect the in
terests of creditors. This is form of in
sOlvency which entails less loss upon the
iDsolvent party than attachment By indi-
vidual creditors. A railroad in the hands
of receiver continues to run its trains,
but the law limits the powers of the new
management to legitimate business. 1t is
little odd, if the officials of the Union
Pacific intended to do the fair thing by
the Government. the representatives of
the Government were not consulted. But
now that Attorney General Olney has his
eagle eye upon the new management, we
may indulge in the hope that the $50, ,000 600
interest of The United States will be con-
sidered sufficient TO entitle the Govern
ment to a voice in the councils of the
company.

! LIKE: .RA1S.. IN A TRAP.

: ==Itis.d quite time for hanging festival in

Ployes should be held to a strict account.

tion. and is let off with reprimsnd. Peo-
PIE shudder at the old but rare punish
ment OF burning at the stake. 1t is In fact
too horrible to con template. But the care
lessness of railroad engineer exposes
hundreds OF persons, men. women and
children, to the uncomfortable tortures of
this barbarous but now obsolete method
of punishment. The human mind can
conceive of DO more horrible death than to
be burned between broken timbers, con-
scioEs that death by fire awaits one.
The morning call., 1893-10-21
THE UNITED STATES SENATE.

A late article in the New York San pre-
sents striking contrast to the vehement
denunciation which several of its contem-
poraries have showered upon the Senate.
The Su1 directs public attention TO the
fact that the Senatorial term is longer than
the Presidential term, and assumes that
there was purpose in making it longer
The Sun adds
Not only Is the term OF Senator longer than
that of the President. but his independence of
the executive is hedged about and maintained
by other safeguards. The Senate has the
power OF confirming or rejecting the most i'm
portant Presidential nominations. 1t is the
court of impeachment when such trials occur.
1t has summary control Of the Presidents
