THE NEXT SENATOR.

| The Legislature is SO largely Republican
| that there can he no excuse for a bad
choice of Senator. II there were but two
| or three majority on Joint ballot members
| of the Legislature might be compelled to
| choose between voting for an aspirant
! they did not consider a fit representative
| of their party and not electing a Sen ator.
Bat with majority of from 40 10 30 on
| Joint ballot there will be no excuse for the
| election of Senator who might not stand
a fair show of election before the people.
The defeat of Mr.. Estee as candidate for
Governor should warn the party not to
elect a Senator who is not known to be in.
dependent of Southern Pacific Influence
Personally Mr.. Estee was an acceptable
candidate, but the condition of his nomIna-
tioa weighed him down in the canvass.
If not a railroad candidate he was the
nominee OF railroad convention and the
favorite of a railroad boss. The demon
STATIONS which marked his tour through
the State were personal tributes to hi
character and ability. But he was moi
strong enough to rise above the suspicion
of being the choice of the Southern Pacific
Company.
A second consideration should be per
sonal fitness. 1t is long time since Cali
fornia has had man of real usefulness
in the Senate. Stanford was properly
spoken of as the Senator from The South
ern Pacific Company. There was no delu-
sion that he would consider the interests
of California when they clashed with the
interests of the corporation of which he
was president. California now needs a
Senator of character ability aud absolute
independence of corporations. The State
las taken a long stride in the way of
emancipation. but 1t is not yet free. The
election of Senator who is not known TO
own himself and to be able TO impress his
convictions upon his associates will be a
step backward. It will be assumed that
the railroad company will control uncer-
tain men and unknown men. THE CALL
has no candidate in view. but it would
direct the public mind to the selection of a
Senator VIII o com bines the prime requisites
of personal fitness and political indepen-
deuce.

SHALL THE ARMY BE INCREAsEDa

The report of the general of the army,
which was put in type few weeks ago.
will be one of the first documents laid be-
fore Congress next month. The gist of the
report is contained in the sentence that "a
considerable permanent increase in the
enlisted strength of the army should be
made, and a still further increase author
lied to be made by the President when, in
his judgment. an emergency requiring it
may easonably be foreseen." Since these
views were first published they have eic-
tied comment and criticism. One author
ity says that the demand for an increase is
a prOfes sional soldiers hobby. Another
contends that a law clothing the President
with power to increase the army at pleas
ure would be subversive to liberty, and
wonld open the door for the creation of a
Pretorian Guard. Another protests again ST
a plan which would submit the decision OF
labor questions to the arbitrament Of bay
onets in the hands of regulars. Aud yet
another, cOncurring with the general,
argues that the delays which would result
from our unpTeparedness in the case of in
surTectiOn might cost more than the main
tenance of a larger standing army now.
In studying the question it must be Kept
in view that the purposes for which the
United States army was organized on a
peace footing have ceased to exist. There
is no likelihood of an invasion OF the
United States by a foreign power; Indian
wars are things of the past; aud in case of
widespread insurrection, as we learned in
1861 the regular army is too weak to be of
service. Under present conditions the
fnnntinp nf fno rpuuiar is IN sunnla-
ment the police force in the performance
Of police duty and TO discharge an Office
which the State militia are too often in
competent to fl. We must look upon the
regulars as reserve upon which the State
authorities, within certain limitations. can
draw when they are Incapable of preserv-
ing the peace with their usual machinery.
And the question to be decided is whether
force of %, 14S officers and men. which is
the present strength of the army, is enough
for that work.
In the case of disturbances 10 any part
of the country the question of calling for
national aid resolves itself into one of
transportation. Our extensive railroad
system permits the concentration of bodies
of troops at given points in very short
periods of time. Under such circum-
stances the small army we have would
seem to be fully adequate for all probable
emergencies.

AN HISTORIC BATTLE.

Three or four days before the election the
Philadelphia Record, Candidate Singerly's
paper. printed the following:
The Keystone State is literally aglow as it has
rarely been even in the most exciting Presiden-
tial years; and If such an uprising OF the peo-
pie does not presage an historic battle at the
ballot-box, and one with vast, far-reaching con.
sequences, then must all the signs OF popular
feeling be pronounced Elusive and vain.
The battle will be historic in the magni-
tude OF its majorites. The plurality
against Colonel Singerly is about $50 600.
This is without precedent in the history
of Pennsylvania. 1t is the more signif-
cant from the fact that Colonel SingerIy is
undoubtedly the strongest Democrat In the
State. Personally ne Is unexceptiona BILE
in every way. He has made the Record
the most widely circulated paper in the
State in spite of it's consistent free-trade
record. It was the heresy of free trade
which Colonel Singsrly chung to which
was repudiated rather than Colonel Sing
erlY himself.

AND NOW 1T is IN BOSTON.

a Municipal League has been organized
in Boston to bring about radical Ieform ms
in that city A few years ago Boston was
thought 10 be model city as to the man
agement of municipal affairs. Now comes
the word that corruption is rife aud that
administration has gone nearly TO that
extent that has existed In New York
Municipal politics are in a bad way.
Citizens have been casting about for a
remedy. The money of the city has been
spent recklessly, and various forms of
bribery have prevailed, and all this in
good old Boston. with all the supposed
moral pressure to make officials keep in
the straight path
The Municipal League, which has been
quietly at work for some time, has formu-
lated a line of action. After hearing a
report about the corruption and abuses Of
the present legislative branch OF the mu-
nicipal government it is proposed to abolish
IL altogether, and to have one board Of
twenty-four Aldermen, with the term Of
the Mayor increased to three years. One
board is abolished and the other enlarged
But besides this one board it is proposed
| to have Board of AppOrtionment" TO
deal with all appropriations and distri bu-
lions of public money. 1t is found that
six Of the twelve members of the Board of
Aldermen and fifty-nine of the seventy
five members of the Common Council pa
only a poll tax. The city at present is
governed by men who. having no property,
| contribute little or nothing to It's support
| They are the men who have aroused pub
lie suspicion that they have dealt cor
ruptly with the interests of the city.
The Municipal League proposes to frame
! substantially new charter, by which
some of the worst municipal abuses will
be corrected. But the best charter 10 the
world will not Of itself secure good mu-
nicipal administration. 1t may be in some
instances the first step toward reform
Bad men with good charter can find all
the opportunities they want for corrupt
proceedings. A few years ago new
charter was framed for one Of the larger
cities of this State. Great pains were taken
to stop every loo phole Of corruption. The
trainers saic: snow the city can't have
anything else than an honest administra-
ton" The second election after the
adoption of this charter brought In one of
the most corrupt administrations ever
KIN own in the history of that CITY, 1t was
bad from the Mayor down with two or
three individual exceptions. 1t was sue
ceeded by good one, not by virtue of the
charter but because the community had
been called back to protect itself from
downright robbery. What occurred In
this instance will be repeated whenever
the community becomes careless of its In
terests. The boss and the ring are always
| wide awake. and never so much so as
when the community is sleeping over its
interests. A new charter will not save
| Boston nor any other city in the country
from municipal corruption. II rascals are
elected through the Indifference of citizens
then plumber will be the order Of the day.

SW APPiNG VOTES.

If man or woman should approach the
voter with an offer of cash or merchandi se
for his vote, the offer would be resen ted

that the sale of a vote stamps The vende r

the voter is asked to vote for Mr.. So and
So for certain Office, as a consideration
for vote for some candidate he NAV
name, the offer is not regarded as an in
suit. 1t is made to great many voters.
In fact, there are comparatively few men
who in the course of a campaign are not
approached in that way. But when we
stop to consider the proposition it does not
look well. The voter Is asked to dispose
of his vote for consideration. 1t is as
sumed that In the list of nominees there
is one or more whose prospects he may
wish to promote. He is thus empowered TO
cast two votes for his favorie. and
he empowers the person who makes the
proposition to practically cast his own
vote for a candidate he would not other
wise have voted for. The practice OF
swapping Votes has never before been car
rled 10 such an extent as during the cam
paign that has just closed. The most in
