THE COUNTY CAMPAIGN.

The county campaign Is coming on
and n word or two to the candidates
and to the voters would not be amiss.
However unfortunate 1t may be, the
question as regards the Higginsville
court case has excited rivalry in the
minds of some that partakcs strongly
of the feeling of animosity. What
caused this animosity? Every man has
his solution and we have ours, but this
needs no comment here.
Several candidates have announced
themselves for the various offices and
many more will follow. These an
nouncements will come from every
section of the county. For each Office
there will be at least one good demo-
cratic applicant, and for several there
will be more than one. If the best man
is chosen for each office, the govern
ment of the county will be wisely and
judiclously administered and there is
only one way TO get the best men. That
il, for us not to pandcr TO sectional
feeling, but TO cast our votes as we
pray.
As far as the democratic primary is
concerned, the principles of the men
will be democratic and it will be left to
the voters to choose men for their
ability and integrity.
To the candidates, we would urge
you for the sake of the party, to be
friendly and courteous in your cam
paign. Each one of you by placing
your name before the public, has as
sumed the responsibility of sharing
that part of the public comment or
criticism that falls TO your lot. We feel
sure that there is not a man yet an
nounced who will not, if defeated, use
his best efforts for the success of his
opponent.
But rs to who shall fill the offices,
and how they shall be filed rests with
the voters. The principle "God bless
me and my wife, John and his wife, us
four and no more" must have nothing
to do with the democratic party IN La
fayctte county.
The unprejudiced element of this
county which is the overwhelming
majority must scorn any man who will
raise q sectional banner to go into
Office. We have room in Lafayette
county for Higginsvillea and Lexington.
The fight over the cour house question
Is ended, and we must make all mar
row minded democrats who wish to
carry these prejudices further, take a
back seat, while the good democrats
rise above sectional issues, nominate
and elect a strong ticket.

SENATORIAL COURTESY VS.. SENA-
TORIAL DIITY.

iolthhb bOlI
Since the 9TH day of last August the
senators have kept the people con-
stantly informed upon the subject of
senatorial courtesy" The people in
return have urged the senators to dis
regard so much formality and get to
work in earnest.
A great deal has been said upon
these two subjects and in face of the
present conditions, no one dare assert
that they have been worn ~threadbare.
Senatorial courtesy" may have sever
al definitions. 1t may be termed that
high regard which these learned men
have for each other that prevents one
from opposing the policies of the 9TH
er, or it may be an unwritten law, i. c.,
a precedent well established that pre-
vents one senator from urging action
upon a measure, while another one OBJ
iects to such action. In fact it has
been so extensively used that it seems
most any definition would be applica-
bic. When the legislators do n thing
that ought moi to be done, they attrib-
ute it to senatorial courtesy" when
they omit to do a certain thing that the
people demand they attribute this also
to senatorial courtesy This has
been going on so long that the people
are fast making up their minds to leave
some of the most courteous of them at
home.
As to senatorial duty, a book could
well be written and then the subject
would not be exhausted.
The senate is the conservative branch
of the Legislative department of gov
eminent. On account of its numbers,
the honor attached to membership III
that body, its responsible duties and
its qualifications, the people look to il
for wise, speedy and conservative
action. At present the responsibility
resting upon the democratic majority
in that body is great. Upon the rOli.
cies the senate outlines rests the future
of the democratic party and the great
question that now puzzles the peoples
mind is whether senatorial courtesy is
to overpower senatorial duty. Under
the rules as they now exist, there car
be no vote taken in the senate as long
as any one member desires to debate q
point.
The deficiency in this matter was
strongly felt while the Sherman act
was under controversy. Both sides Of
the question were calling for a vote
that potent factor senatorial courtesy, >
delayed all action. Will this be the
case with the Wilson billP This is
what the people want to know. Is the
country to be afflicted with a long
siege of dry monotonous speeches, OIL
will the senate render its verdict in a
reasonable length of timer Will the
democratic senators not throw aside
this visionary formality and add to the
senate some good rule that will permit
the majority to governP
As the rules are at present the re-
publican minority IA POSTPONE the
passage of the Wilson bill almost in
definitely. 1t is not likely that this
will be done, and yet it is a possibility
Will not some of our senators intro
duce a resolution hat would be bene-
fetal in bringing about speedy legisla-
ton. The country is tired of reading
long-winded and useless speeches and
demands a change. 1t has heard
enough of senatorial courtesy and de-
sires n little senatorial duty.
