THE SENATE AS 1T Is.

The Senate has gained nothing by at
tracing the attention OF the country to
the personnel or to the methods Of that
body. 1t has lost. and more's the pity.
1t is an essential part Of our republican
system. 1t appears In the wool and
warp of the Constitution. 1t cannot be
destroyed without the des' .uction IF the
structure of the Government. necessi-
tating the building of a new edifce, dif-
fering essentially from the old one under
which the Republic has risen from OBJ
security to grandeur-from IA lowly place
In the family of nations to one OF great
power, comforting incalculable blessings
upon mankind.
Any action on Its part. therefore. that
impairs the respect In which 1t has
been held by the people or shakes their
confidence In its wisdom and usefulness,
is to be deplored.
But such has been the result of the
scrutiny and the fierce light of criticism
that has been turned upon It. Its sham
dignity. Its %inordinate ~pretenston, Its
Individual eaknesse and the absurd
formalism3 with which it mas sought TO
hedge the personality of each member.
have been disclosed and denounced. One
rule steps upon another's heel, so fast
they come. No plain citizen of the
Republic may venture into any
apartment about the Senate Cham

ECONOMY THAT Is CRIME.

D~isobedience cf train orders by men
In charge OF one Of the oolliding trains
was the direct cause OF the Grand Trunk
horror Of yesterday nea.. Battle Creek.
So a direct responsibility for the event
seems readily placed. though Il penalty
such as can afford any measure OF rec
cmpense can never be administered.
But there is another responsibility
which is hardly less direct than that
falling upon the disobedient train con-
ductor. 1t rests upon the railway COM
pany. The reliable reports of the
catastrophe state that the express train
in the cars Of which all the slaughtering
and manning Of passengers took place.
was made up Of old and fiimsy coaches.
which went to pieces like soft kindling
then burned like finder. What is t1
be said OF the notwithstanding economy
OF a corporation which. In these days
Of substantially built coaches and vesti-
buled trains. runs for its crowds OF
patrons an express made up of such re-
pair-shop material?
Then there Is reference In the reports
to the old and deadly car-stove and
the lamps. which furnished the fire for
the Undertook coaches. These are out
dated and, for these times. %barbarous appli-
ances for travel on the rail. The com.
pany which keeps them In use Is negli-
gent In Its duty to the public and falls
to properly guard the lives intrusted tc
its care. A well-patronized railroad can
not afford to be behind the age In any
OF those things which tend to make
travel safer. To be so Is to be almost
guilty of a crime.
