AN occurrence in the Police Court on
Tuesday emphasizes the hold which
the dive keeper has upon the Sullivan
police authorities. There had been q
row in Pete Crafts saloon, in which
Harry Mann was severely beaten. The
police interfered and Mann was ar
rested. 1t came u in the evidence
that Mann simply went into the saloon
to rescue q cousin, who was being
swindled by some gamblers. For his in
reference he was set upon and beaten.
When the police arrived, Mann was ar
rested, doubtless at the suggestion of
the keeper of the saloon, but the swim
oilers were not interfered with and the
saloon keeper, who harbOred them, and
who should have been arrested and his
license revoked, simply directed the al
rest of a sober man. who was in the
place to rescue a kinsman from the grasp
of swindlers. This is a sample Of the
immunity which gamblers and their
pals have purchased of Sullivan and

IN LEAGUE WITH LAWBREAKERS.

Why should the saloon keepers be Or
ganized and be assessed from 80 to
500 to promote the election of the Sui
livan ring? The retail grocers, butchers,
bakers, etc, are not subjected to any
such blackmail-why should the saloon
keepers DO assessed The saloon keep
ers are as we'll protected by law as are
the grocers or the butchers. For q GER
tain sum of money they are authorized
to sell spurious and malt liquors every
day and night. Sundays and holidays
excepted. until II o'clock at night. So
long as they keep tolerably orderly places
40 one can interfere with their traffic
any more than they can that of the
butcher or the grocer. If any officer
shOuld undertake to interfere with their
traffic within the limits of the law they
would have the same remedy as would

LET US HAVE cLoruRE IN THE SENATE.

The British House of Lords and the
United States Senate have both placed
themselves in opposition to the will of
the people, as expressed by the popular
branch of Parliament and Congress.
The attitude of the Senate is more exas-
perating than that of the Lords. because
whereas the latter voted promptly,
without wasting time, the fOrmer have
consumed several weeks in windy
speech making. turning q deaf ear to
the demand of the people for action,
hiding behind the so-called courtesy of
the Senate. and stubbornly refusing to
adopt a rule that will enable the major
ity to bring on a vote.
In England it is proposed to make war
on the House of Lords and either force
them to obey the will of the people or
wipe them out. The American people
need not go as far as that. We do not
val the Senate abolished, but we want
it reformed. 1t ought to be made to adj
just itself to the American idea of ma
jOrity rule. All our institutions are

should not be an exception. 1t should
not be permitted tn trihe with public in

of the Senate. The traditions of the
Senate must yield to the public welfare.
The Senate must adopt the c%loture. so
that whenever the public interests re-
Quire there may be an end of windy
speech making aud factious opposition.
The people are the source of all
power. They elect Presidents and Con-
crosses. They can revolutlonize the
Senate. 1t is a slow process, but they
can do it. They can do anything in rea-
son they set their mind to. Let them
resolve to revolutionize the Senate.
Hereafter let no man be elected to the
Senate by any party. from any State,
who does not previously pledge himself
to vote for cloture. Let the question be
made n political Issue, and let the peo-
pie be heard from on the subject. Let
them declare in no uncertain tones that
the majority must and shall rule i'll the
Senate as elsewhere, and let all candi-
dates for that body be required to sub
scribe to this document. If the people
would adopt this plan, Senators, dull
and stubborn as they are, would soon
discover that their masters have taken
them in hand, and they would yield.
Let the people unite in demanding clo-
ture in the Senate.
